Chapter 20 Volume Eighteen

●Ma De reiterated that in the south of Cangzhou City, a rich house was robbed and entered, and the owner and his wife were both arrested.There was a concubine living in the east chamber, who changed clothes and hid under the kitchen. She whispered to the stove maid and said: "The master is stealing hands, so he dare not fight. There are people on the roof of the canals, so as to prevent rescue, but you can't see under the eaves. You choose the back window to follow the eaves." Go out, tell the servants in secret, each on a horse with a weapon, and lie down on all sides for three or five miles. After the fourth watch, he will come out. If you travel one or two miles, you must release it. If you don’t release it, you may see where it is going. Stop, he goes and goes with him, and then returns to fight and still runs, and then stops and still stops, and then walks and still goes, counting like this four, if he does not return to the fight, he will follow, and he will find his nest, and if he returns to the fight, he will neither fight nor escape. , Caught until dawn, no one was able to escape.The maid risked her life to sue, and everyone thought it was reasonable, and as she said, she was arrested and rewarded the stove maid.The concubine and the concubine are not very harmonious, and even get along well.Later I asked my concubine why she did this, and she said: "I have stolen a daughter from the chieftain. When my father was alive, I tried this method, which was the only method I feared in words and deeds, but I didn't see any useful ones. I am in a hurry to try it now, but I was lucky enough to try it."Therefore, it is said that those who use soldiers must win the affection of the enemy, and it is also said that they use thieves to attack thieves.

●Dai Dong's original words, there is a fox living in an empty house, communicating with the owner, sending gifts, or exchanging artifacts, living in peace as neighbors.One day the fox told the master: "Your courtyard is empty, and there have been hanged ghosts for many years. You have demolished this house, and the ghosts have nowhere to live. They have come to compete with me for the house. They are always in bad shape. They are terrified of children. They are already detestable. It also makes people suffer from cold and fever, which is especially unbearable.A certain Taoist priest can impeach ghosts, and Jun Xi begged him to get rid of this harm.The master got a talisman and burned it in the courtyard. Suddenly, a storm blew up, and the sound was like thunder.Fang was stunned when he heard the chaotic sound of wagge in the house, like dozens of people rushing and trampling, shouting from the house: "My plan is too big, I can't regret it, the god will strike down, the ghost will bind me and I will also be driven away, now farewell to the king. carry on.Gai couldn't bear his anger and was eager to succeed, and there was no one who would not hurt both sides.Looking at this fox, we can learn from it.And Lu’s cousin, who said that someone was suffering from a fox, extended the magician’s forbidden curse, and the fox went away, but the magician was insatiable, and sometimes sent wooden figurines, paper tigers, etc., to his house to disturb people, and the bribery was temporarily stopped, and it would come back in ten days. , its haunting is even worse than that of a fox, and it is avoided by taking the family to the capital to avoid it.Keen to win, relying on villains, there is no one who will not be backlashed, and this is also a sign.

Urumqi Counselor Hai Qiyun said that when he conquered Wushi in the past, he returned to the camp after the battle. He saw a man poking his head out among the trees under the cliff. He suspected that he was a spy and stabbed him with a spear. Gai Sheng turned around, and on the middle stone, the flames shot out from the spear, and the arm was broken a little, which was suspected to be dizzy, but the spear hit the ground, there were bloodstains all over, I don't know why.Yu said that this must be the essence of the mountain, deep mountains and great swamps, where there is no fertility.Although there are many attached associations in the Bai Ze map, there are almost all of them.He also said that there was a ranger who saw a black object squatting on a stone, suspected it was a bear, and shot it with full force, and hit all three shots, but the object seemed astonished as if he didn't know it, and he galloped back in horror. Yu said that this is also the ear of the mountain.

●Liu Fuyan, the bearer who works overtime in the Changshan Valley Road—Jiuqing Jianyu, if eight people go out of Beijing, four people will be added, which is called overtime—the eldest sister, whose surname is forgotten, daughter of a refugee from Shandong, aged 15 or 6 , the parents ate in Chifeng—that is, Wulan Hada, Wulan Yiyanhong, and Hada Yiyan Peak, which is now built as Chifeng Prefecture.Rent fields to cultivate.One day I went to the mountains to collect woodcutters, encountered wind and rain, and took shelter under the rocks. After the rain stopped, it was dark, afraid of the tiger, I dared not walk, and hid in the grass. I saw two torches in the distance, and suspected it was the eyes of a tiger.Up to the front, there were several officials and servants, whose clothes were neither ancient nor modern. Whoever they scolded, they told the truth.The official sat on the stone, and the order was dragged out, and the crowd shouted and knelt down.The elder sister thought it was a mountain god, so she prostrated herself and obeyed her orders.The official said: "Your evil should be my food. I will arrest you now, and when you eat it, you will quickly untie your clothes and lay them on the stone, leaving no strands to hang on your teeth."Knowing that he is the king of tigers, I pray for forgiveness.The official said: "As your appearance is acceptable, if you are willing to serve me in bed, you will be pardoned, and then you will come and go to your house, and you will be blessed."The eldest sister jumped up angrily and said, "is there any god willing to say this, it must be evil."If you eat, you eat your ears. The eldest sister is a good daughter, and you can't do this with your face covered.Picking up rocks and striking hard, and running away for a while, this is not because of his strength, but because of his strength.His chaste heart is enough to make him handsome.Therefore, it is said that it is Qi and it is also extremely powerful.

● Zhang Taishou Mo Gu said that there are rich houses in virtue and scenery, and they can accumulate valleys without accumulating funds, so as to prevent robbers and robbers.During the reign of Emperor Kangxi and Yongzheng, there were frequent apologies, and the price of rice was high. The closed granaries refused to raise the grain, hoping that the price would increase again.The villagers are sick, but there is nothing to do.The horned prostitute named Yumianhu said: "It's easy to get, the first thing is to prepare money for Keer."But he went to his family and said: I am a money tree for a madam, and the madam abused me. Yesterday, I asked Boxi to redeem myself with a thousand pieces of gold. If you can donate a thousand pieces of gold, you will hold the towel for life.Wen Gong doesn't like accumulation funds, even two thousand guan is enough. Yesterday, a wood merchant heard about this and went back to Tianjin to collect funds. It is estimated that it will be half a month away. I don't want to be a mediocre slave. If you decide in advance within a day, you will receive more virtue.Zhang was confused by this prostitute, and was pleasantly surprised when he heard about it, so he hurried out of the grain and sold it at a low price.On the day when the valley was exhausted, the prostitute sent Xie Fushi to say: "The madam has raised me for a long time, and for a while she was angry with each other and criticized her, so there is some reason to discuss it. Now she regrets to keep her, and her righteousness can't be broken. What she said will wait for a different day."The rich room originally had a private contract with no intermediary, no license, no money to hire, and nothing to do.Li Luyuan also said this matter, it is not false.I heard that this prostitute was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was also a heroine who was able to do this suddenly.

●Ding Yaoyuan said that there is a Xiaolian who has no children in his forties. It is very wise to buy a concubine.The older I have a son, the benefits can't be tolerated, and I turn to the distance, filial piety and loss, as if lost.Sleeping alone in the study, I didn't go to bed at night, the concubine came in suddenly, and asked where he came from, saying: "Flee to the ear."Xiaolian pondered and said: "If you escape and return to worry about hunting, how can a jealous woman be willing to hide, and the matter has come to this point, what can I do with it?"The concubine smiled and said: "Don't deceive the king, I am a real fox. I used to come as a human, and I dare not bear to criticize it. Now I come as a fox, changing for no reason, coming in and out without trace, and Wu knows it."Because Yan Wan was as good as before, she gradually became a child maidservant for a long time, and she was very angry, so she raised a lot of money to impeach her concubine. It's reasonable, if you give birth to a son and send a concubine, the husband will be betrayed, and if you see it for no reason, it's not my fault.The sorcerer said: "Since you have seen it, how can you return privately."The concubine said: "The mother is not married, and the son is not cut off. The wife is not married, and the husband is not cut off. Besides, the one who hates me is jealous of the wife. It is not because of the husband. The husband still accepts me. It is not out, so why not return?" .The sorcerer said angrily: "I am a beast, how dare you argue with human reason."The concubine said: "People change the mind of an animal, and the laws of yin and yang are punished. If a beast changes people's mind, it is considered a crime. What constitution is the mage based on?"The sorcerer said angrily: "I hold the five thunder method, and I know how to kill demons, but I don't know anything else."The concubine laughed and said: "The demon is also a thing of the heaven and the earth. If it is innocent, the heaven and the earth are born together."What God does not punish, does the mage want to punish?The sorcerer clapped the case and said: Is it your fault to seduce a man?The concubine said: "I accept it with courtesy, and I can't be seduced by it. If it is seduced, I will concentrate and inhale, and this life will last forever."I have been at home for two years now, and I have been back for another five or six years. Kang Qiang is safe and sound. Where is the so-called seducer?The mage receives a lot of money from a jealous woman, and within a week of training, he uses coolness to help greedy ears, how can I obey it.During the question and answer, the magician, who had summoned the general, had lost his place and had nothing to do.Angry eyes said: "If I don't fight with you today, I will call the Leibu tomorrow."Tomorrow, if he promotes the establishment of an altar again, he will escape at night.Although the law that Gai holds is correct, and the law is bribed, he is not afraid of charms, and the gods are also dissatisfied.According to legend, when Mr. Liu Niantai was in charge of the general constitution, he wrote a couplet on Yushitai saying: "No desire always teaches the heart to be like water, and words to consciously feel like frost."It can be said to be knowledgeable.

According to Mo Xueya, there is a villager suffering from the epidemic, sleepy on a straw couch, and his soul has gone out suddenly, he feels that he is suddenly free from heat and annoyance, and he feels very comfortable, the road is different from what he used to walk, and he meets an old friend by chance. See sorrow and joy.Recalling that he was dead, he suddenly realized himself and said: Am I in the dark?The friend said: You have not died together, and you have left your soul here. This place is beyond the reach of human beings. Let's visit together to broaden our knowledge?Because of going along with it, the cities and villages we pass through are all different from the world, and they have their own camps when they come and go. When they see the villagers, they all watch them off, but no one talks to them.The villagers said: I heard that there is a hell, can I take a look at it?You said: Hell is like a prison. It cannot be opened without the underworld officials, cannot be guided without the underworld officials, and I cannot reach it.There are three strange ghosts that are close to hell, you can go and watch them.Because I changed to a different road, I walked half a mile to a place, which was as empty as a tomb. I saw a ghost, who looked like a human being, but there was no mouth under his nose.Asked why, he said: "It's when you are in life, you are skillful in dealing with it, and flattery and praise are flattering and pleasing to the world, so you are rewarded by this, so you can't speak."Or when encountering flames and saliva, drink it through the nose.Another ghost was seen, with his butt raised upwards, his head folded downwards, his face on his belly, and he was walking with two hands supporting him.When asked why, he said: It was because of self-importance in life, so he received this retribution so that he could not look up and be proud of others.I also saw a ghost, from the chest to the abdomen, several inches of cracks, internal organs, nothing.Asked why, he said: "When you are born, the city is hidden and hidden, and people cannot fathom it, so you receive this reward, so that there is nothing hidden in the middle."I also saw a ghost whose foot was two feet long, whose fingers were as big as a vertebra, and whose heels were as big as a bucket, and weighed as much as a boat of a thousand dendrobium. After half a moment of effort, it began to move an inch.Asked why, he said: When he was born, he was talented and quick-footed, and he took the lead in affairs, so he received the retribution and made it impossible to do it.I also saw a ghost whose ears were dragging the ground like wings, and it was chaotic and clueless.Asked why, he said: "When I was born, I was jealous and suspicious, and liked to hear rumors, so I received this retribution, so I couldn't listen."It is all based on the depth of evil karma, and when the period of receiving retribution expires, it begins to enter the wheel.His crimes are reduced to the first level of hell, just like the disciples of the law of the sun.I saw a chariot riding a miscellaneous horse, and a ghost officer passed by, and the villagers were shocked and said: This is a living soul. If you wander here by mistake, you may not be able to return if you are lost. Whoever knows his home can guide him away.The friend knelt to admit that he was an old friend, and the official ordered him to send him back. When he was about to arrive at the door, he woke up sweating profusely, and he recovered from his illness.Xueya's nature is bright and bright, she has nothing in her chest, plays with friends, and argues every time, this should be her fable, it may not be true.However, Zhuangsheng Liezi is half a fable, and he is just enough to persuade and punish, so there is no need to ask for a sword.

●Chen Banjiang said that there was a scholar who met a woman on the evening of the moon. She was quite beautiful, and she picked up negative words, and she happily met her. Since Yun's family was nearby, she refused to say her name.Also, Yun Fuheng went out for a few days, and his home had rear windows to open and walls to hide.If it is five or six years, the love is even good.A one-year-old scholar is about to go on a long journey, and the wife comes to say goodbye at night. The scholar says he will follow others, and he will have an indefinite future.The woman suddenly laughed and said: You are so infatuated with love, you will be sick because of love, not what I wanted when I first met.In fact, I told you that I am the one who will be replaced by ghosts.Ordinary people who have sex with ghosts will all get sick and die, and their yin will be stripped of their yang.But I love Jun Shaoxiu, and I can't bear the jade to break the orchid, so I will go over seven or eight days, and when Junyang recovers, I am willing to come again. There is stripping and recovery, so you can be safe.If you meet other ghosts, you will indulge your passions, and within half a year, you will be in a dead fish's place.My generation is the most, and those who seek to be like me will be the least, so you should be cautious.I feel that the king is righteous, so I repay it.At the end of the speech, he spread out his tongue and made a ghost shape, and went away with a long roar.The scholar trembled and almost lost his soul. Although he met Ye Rong, he never looked sideways.

●Wang Mei's preface said that there were people in Jiaohe who were falsely accused of thieves. Pu Yuan, a villager, had no way to explain himself, so he asked the county officials for help with bribes.When the official hears about the robber's false accusation, he secretly transfers his wife to be beaten, thinking that his wife must be beautiful, but bribes him to show his intention slightly, saying that this matter is secret, and his wife must come in secret, so he can teach him a strategy.The intermediaries tell the villagers, and the villagers are afraid of death and lose their will, and call their wives and mothers to prison, whispering about it.The mother told the wife, but of course it should not be.Two or three days later, someone knocked on the door of the official's house at night, and a beggar woman wrapped her head in a cloth handkerchief, with a hundred knots and rags, barged in, did not answer her questions, and took off her shirt and handkerchief as soon as she went, and she was freshly made up. Take the beautiful woman also.Surprised and asked where he came from, his cheeks were flushed with blush, he bowed his head and said nothing, but a piece of paper came out of his sleeve, and he looked at it with the lamp, it was just a certain wife.The official was overjoyed, and led him into the inner room, so he asked him why he came. The woman hid her tears and said, "I don't know what the king said, why did you come at night? Since you have come here, you don't need to ask, but I pray that you will not lose your trust."The official made a big oath, so Yan Wan stayed in hiding for a few days. He was bewitched by the woman, and his mind was turned upside down.It is said that the village is humiliated every day, and it is difficult to live for a long time. If the city is close, the king rents a couple of couplets, which can provide shelter, avoid rascals, and communicate with each other day and night.The officials were happy, but they tried everything to whiten their grievances.After he was released from prison, when he met villagers, he felt very sorry for Suomo, thinking that he was intimidated by his wife, and he was ashamed to meet him.Later, when he went to the village and went to his home because of an incident, he also refused to see him. Knowing that he was separated from each other, he hated him greatly.There will be those who coerce prostitutes to lure bloggers to sue the officials, and the officials will judge the prostitutes and return them to their original places.The woman speaks bitterly and is restrained by her husband. She is ashamed and burdened by each other.The officials were confused again, because they told the officials: "The prostitute's offering is from the mother's family, and the wife of a real county citizen should be investigated for her husband."Gai coveted the official to sell it, and bought it himself.The villagers were sent to arrest, and the villagers came with their wives, but they were not the same person. Asked whether everyone in the village was true, and asked the officials why they falsely accused the villagers, the officials could not be right.The second said: rumors.If you ask who heard it, you will be silent.Call the prostitutes and ask them, the prostitutes are saying that the officials first wanted to coerce the wives of the villagers. If the wife obeys, she will lose her body.Now it is time to receive the stick, and it is suitable to meet again, because I still deceive the wives of the villagers, hoping to get rid of Chu, but it is not expected that he will have other plans, resulting in two defeats.The officials surveyed the villagers, but they were falsely accused.Gu Nian's plan was to save the dead, but because of his wife, he was released without being prosecuted, and severely punished this official.The god treacherous beetle, no official, but being won over by the village women is like playing with a baby. The fool will always be defeated by the wise, and things will always be reversed.There is no going back, the way of heaven.If the wise are invincible, only the wise will survive in the world, and the fools will be cut off.There is reason.

●Ghosts and nightmares don't know what they mean until they die.Ni Yujiang said: I heard that Zhu Shiliang was born.Take and eat its living soul ears.The ghosts are the remaining qi, which gradually diminishes until there is no more, and they can be extended again if they gain the vital energy of the soul to benefit them. Therefore, female ghosts are constantly wanting to have sex with humans, and they can capture their essence, while male ghosts cannot absorb human essence. , killing people and sucking their anger, is like a fox picking ears.Recalling Liu Tingsheng's words, Kangxi Gengzi had five sons. At night, when it rained, he lived in the ruined temple. Four of them were asleep, but the only one was still asleep. A person is a nightmare, and he sighs at another person. Although his heart is relieved, he gradually faints.Those who feel as if they are being dragged, and wake up a little, have already left their original place, seem to be bound, and if they want to cry out, they can't make a sound.Seeing that the four people were also lying down vertically and horizontally, all the ghosts took one person to eat it, and then ate it up, and then ate two people at a time, until the fourth person, suddenly an old man came in from the outside, and shouted sharply: "Wild ghosts never make mistakes. These two people have a lot of money, so they can't be offended.The ghosts dispersed in horror, and the two woke up suddenly, and they saw the same thing.The latter one finally teaches, and the other finally teaches.When Mr. Bao Jingting heard about it, he said with a smile: "I have always underestimated this official in my life, but I don't expect that ghosts and gods will pay more attention to him."Judging from what he said, it seems that what Liang Sheng said is true.

Li Qingzi said, Zhu Shengli Garden, Xinyoubei should follow the sky, and it was late to go to the north of Yangliu. Because of avoiding the mud, it made a detour and lost its way. Then there are six or seven couplets in the Tuyuan tile house, and a boy came out to answer the door, and Zhu Gudao begged for a place to stay.An old man, dressed in simple and elegant clothes, invited the guests to enter, stopped in the side house, and called out the lamp, and it was dimmed.He also said: Don't think it obscene if you don't have delicacies late at night, and you can drink a little village wine.As for the money, Zhu asked who was in the family, and said: "I am alone and lonely, but the old wife lives with the child maidservant."Asked Zhu Heshi, Zhu told him to go north, saying: "I have a letter and a few things that I want to send to the middle of the capital. The road is lonely and there are no books and postage. I am very lucky to meet you today."Zhu asked if there are no neighbors, is it not scary to live alone, saying: "There are several acres of thin fields, and they are cultivated by slaves, so they live here. They are poor and have no savings, and they are not afraid of robbers."Zhu said: It is said that there are many ghosts and ghosts in the wilderness.Weng said: "Ghosts and ghosts have not been seen yet. You are as afraid as you are. It's okay to sit with you until dawn."Because I borrowed a vermilion paper pen to make a letter, and sealed the letter with miscellaneous things, wrapped it with old cloth, and sewed it tightly, Fu Zhu said: "The address of your residence has been written on the letter, and you will know it when you go to Beijing to open it."Tianshu bids farewell, and earnestly asks not to lose the token, and begins to break up courteously.When Zhu Zhijing dismantled the cloth wrapping, he wrote a letter to Mr. Zhu Liyuan. The objects were a pair of gold hairpins and silver bracelets. , and later regarded as a different surname, paper money, wheat and rice, have been lacking for a long time, and the three-foot solitary grave is also collapsed, nine springs are painful, and regrets are hard to recover. Repair the barren tombs, and slightly dredge the waterway south of the tomb, so that the common people will not soak up the seclusion, as promised, and will be like Du Hui weeding grass. Knowing that the king is afraid of ghosts, he should secretly watch the head, not daring to see the shape, so as not to raise doubts, the dead Yang Ning nodded.Zhu Hai was sweating profusely, only then did he know that he met a ghost, and based on the words of the return journey in the book, he knew that he would not sell it, and it came true.When he returned to Yangliu, he sent his servants to clean up his tomb with the money he sold for the hairpin and bracelet, but he didn't dare to come again. ●Wu Yunyan said that those who have Qin Sheng are not afraid of ghosts, and always apologize for not seeing them.One night, while taking a walk in another business, I heard a Tang poem chanting outside the tree, saying: I don’t know where I’ve come from, and when I return, I only face the empty mountain and moon.Its voice was mournful and long, peeping through the leaves, a man in ancient clothes was sitting leaning on a stone, he knew it was a ghost, he hurried forward to cover it, and the ghost would not avoid it, Qin Changchang bowed his head and said: "The road is different from the king's, and the people are different from the past." , Encounter encounters, there is no coldness, so those who come, want to ask ghosts and gods about their feelings.Dare to ask what it is like when you are a ghost?Said: Once the body is lost, it is already a ghost.Like a cocoon becoming a butterfly, I don't know it.Ask if the soul rises and the soul falls, is it still too empty?Said: I am a ghost, that is here.Today, my whole body is now facing the king, and I have not tasted soaring up and down with the vitality.The children and grandchildren gather together at the beginning of the sacrifice, and then disperse after the sacrifice.Ask if there is a magic?Said: Ghosts are not false, and gods are not false. For example, if there are people, there must be officials and teachers.Ask the ancient Confucianists to say that thunder gods and the like are all revolving and revolving, is it true that they are not false?Said: When Zuocuo was big, it was said that it was said, but I secretly doubted that the thunderbolt struck the grid, and they worked together with a bang. Like a thunder and a god, the number of gods is more than that of mosquitoes.Mr. Yizhi, who was reprimanded for being the queen of ghosts, knows that all gods serve their duties, such as building officials in the world, are not instant phantoms. I have been a ghost for a long time, but I should know it myself, and there is no need to question it again.Mostly there are no sages who say that there are no ghosts, and the great Confucians fear that people will flatter them, so they force them to say it.However, it is acceptable to prohibit indulging in alcohol, but it is not acceptable to abolish wine and sweet wine.Prohibition of lewdness is acceptable, but abolishing couples is not.Prohibition of corruption is acceptable, but waste of goods is not.It is possible to ban fighting, but not to abolish the five soldiers.Therefore, with the fame of a generation, with the help of hundreds of thousands of cronies, it can make people silent and afraid to speak, but in the end they cannot be satisfied with their hearts.Those who teach it, although they know it is not the case, do not hold true, that is, they cannot be called the essence of learning, and they are against their will.Said: The truth must be like this.You don't know the meaning of the former Confucianism's correction, it is not his original intention to be born out of mutual agitation, and the later Confucianism's theory of warding off evil is not his original intention, and it is not his original intention to believe in Confucianism.If the emperor asks questions, the king will be punished for a long time.People under the spring don't want to be with strangers for a long time, and it's not suitable for a king to have sex with ghosts for a long time.Man Sheng roared away.In this case, it is said that the Confucianists know that there are ghosts, so they say there are no ghosts, and the two ghosts of Huangshan say that the Confucianists know that the feudalism of Jingtian is not feasible, so their words are feasible.Only the eyes are round and wide, and they are still falling into the fog for five miles. Lord Wang Hou Shiyan said that there was a man who was a supporter in the West Lake, and he wrote a poem on the altar: "The place where the incense was buried in the old days is only known by the moon in the Xiling Mountains. There are many poets who love the ancient times. The ghosts are heartbroken to read the poems. The lake has been vicissitudes of life for many times." Still green, cloud and rain, the millennium dream is still doubtful, who believes in the girl who scattered flowers in Lingshan, now the Buddha fire is against Liuli.Everyone knows Su Xiaoxiao.The guest may ask: "Xian Ji was born in Southern Qi, how can she also be able to Qilu?"The Judgment said: When you go through the ages, you will be clear and rational, and your spirit will not be ignorant. That is to say, it will go with the world. Xuansheng only knows the big seal script. How can I write the congratulatory words in official script?Sakyamuni couldn't understand the Chinese language, so how can he use parallel style in the prose?It is the predecessors who have known for thousands of years, and their knowledge of nature is still there today, that is, they can understand today's language and understand today's text.Jiang Wentong and Xie Yuanhui were able to compose a concubine-changing horse eight rhyme poem (see Zhuanyiji), Shen Xiuwenzi Qingxiang, and Jinling nostalgic five-character rhythm poems.It happened in ancient times, so why doubt it now?He also asked whether he could still make Yongming style, that is to say, he wrote four poems saying: "You can't come when you are happy, you can't go if you are away, and you are annoyed by Shi Youfeng, and you will be cut off overnight."Where did Huan come from? Today's heavy wind and rain have soaked Xingzi's shirt, and all the hard work is due to you.End the nymph butterfly skirt, and dance for joy, turning around along the embankment, and the green waves shine on each other.Mo Bo lotus garden, and the willow bank, there are people walking outside the flowers, but no one is seen deep in the willows.Cover Night Song also.Although talents rely on ghosts, they can also be argued with Yunjun. Cousin Anyi said, when Hecheng was harvesting in autumn, a young woman walked up the garden with her son in her arms, suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground, lying down, and could not get up again. Touched the corner of the tile and died of brain fission, reported to the landlord in horror, the landlord reported to Lixu, and examined the deceased, there was no such woman within dozens of miles, and her clothes were clean and beautiful, and her son was also in silver and red silk. She was not like a poor family. Puzzled.And covered with reed foil, more watchful, but anxious to hear from officials.Hecheng went to the county, and the officials arrived at noon the next day. When they opened the foil to inspect, they found a bunch of haggard straw in the middle, and the two corpses were gone.The officials were furious, and they arrested the landlord and the guards. They ruled in many ways, and there was no sign of murder and abandoned corpses.Shangguan thought the case was in a trance, and he went back and forth to refute it, and when he was old, Naigu was waiting to visit, but the family was gone.This is the afternoon of Kangxi Guisijia.According to legend, there is a black fox in the tomb of the south of the village, worshiping the moon every night. People often see it. It is a son of the family who is good at hunting with bows and arrows. In its hole, two little foxes were found, and they turned back and spun away.More than a month, there is something to do, and the suspicious fox changes to avenge his injustice.However, there is no evidence for the absurdity, people dare not enter the confession, and the officials dare not enter the case, so it has to be based on the theory of hiding the corpse.Therefore, the turmoil has reached Sri Lanka.It is also said that there is a beggar woman in a certain village in the west of the city. She was abused by her aunt and hanged in the earth shrine. It was acquired in Anping, a county of Shenzhou, in eight years.Gaifu was fair-skinned, and a young man took turns to watch the time. She took off her clothes and raped her corpse. The corpse was revived, and they took each other to escape.It is unknown what happened to the end of Kangxi, or what happened to Suspicion River City.Or if it is the same thing, the rumors will be wrong. ●In the same year, Mrs. Gong Xiao said, there are people in their forties who have no children, women are jealous, have no reason to accept concubines, and are constantly depressed and unwell. When they come to a Taoist temple, a Taoist recruits them and says: Your complexion is stagnant, and you seem to have serious worries. Read it, say it in fact, or use it as a lead knife.The Taoist said: I have heard it, please ask the king, the king made ten clothes for the ghost soldiers, and you should have them in return for your life. If you can't make them, you can pretend to be the actors and officials.The heart is strange, but it is useless to lie to him, there must be a reason, let's try what he does.It was night, the woman had a nightmare, she couldn't wake up, and the groaning and howling was very miserable. The next day, both her legs were dark and dark.After three days, it will come back, and it will come back every three days. After half a month, the slaves are suddenly sent to call the matchmaker, and it is said that the general will buy a concubine.Since the woman has been in a daze for many days, she wakes up and is more anxious to buy a concubine. She lays out money on the case and makes an appointment with the boy servant. If she does not have to pay for three days, she will also pay for it if she does not get a good one.Judging from its appearance, it seems that it is not a lie, so find two daughters to respond, and keep them.On the evening of the same day, he trimmed the quilt and pillow and urged his husband to enter the room.The whole family was horrified, unable to understand what it meant, and the husband was also perplexed like a dream.Later, when I saw the Taoist priest, I realized that he had the ability to capture the soul. At night, the Taoist priests in the audience were dressed as ghosts, and the Taoist priests starred and feathered, sat in the hall and burned amulets to capture the souls of women. Sue the underworld, use a peach stick to decide a hundred, send back, and order a concubine for a certain period of time.At first, the woman thought it was a nightmare, but she didn't agree, so she took a picture every three days, which was like a sign.When he is dizzy and sleepy for a long time, he hangs his soul upside down, pours vinegar into his nose, and if he does not get a good girl for about three days, he pays him a plow.The art of instigating souls is not an orthodox method, but there is no evil or righteousness in the method, and it is only used by people. It is like a spear, used to kill and plunder to rob robbers, and used to conquer kings and teachers.Techniques are not big or small, and they can only be used by humans. If you don't use medicine, you can save your eyes, and you can also defeat the master's ears.The so-called Taoist priests make good use of their skills?To the arrogant shrew, the reason cannot be explained, and the law cannot be banned, but Taoists can control it with magic.Yao led a sheep, and Shun whipped it accordingly, but the sheep could not do it, and a shepherd drove them vertically, so they would flock together.Each thing has its own system, each medicine has its own fear, and the divine way sets up teachings to tame the powerful stalks of the world. The meaning of the sage is profound.Lecturers do not know it. ●Chu Heting said, there is an imperial student who is rich in thousands of dollars. His wife gave birth to a son and died, and then remarried.On the pretext that there is no help in housekeeping, he welcomes his mother, and the mother brings her second sister. Not a year later, one brother and two younger brothers also brought the family.For a long time, children, servants, maidservants and maids are all wives, fathers and sons of the Taixue, and they are lonely as if they are sending food.A little unbearable, wanting to reclaim the infringed rights, the wives and brothers will coax them outside, and the wives, mothers and sisters will criticize them inside. Servant, just kowtow to beg to delay death.Unable to overcome his anger, he went to the back garden to teach himself, and suddenly an old man stopped and said: "Don't you, my lord, the affairs of your family have been indignant for a long time.I have lived in your house for a long time, and the injustice is even worse. If you burn the earth shrine and beg to send the foxes out of the garden, the god will promise you, just as you said.It was the evening, when the roof tiles were rattling, the windows were shaking, the wife and party were all hit by bricks and stones, and their foreheads were bleeding. Russia and the wife and party women were also seductive, even though their mother couldn't help it.During the day, they go crazy and walk around naked, using obscenities and obscenities, everywhere; at night, they gather dozens of foxes in each room, and even play a show, which is invincible. The wife and party eat all filthy things, knowing that they can't live, they all flee back.Taixue called up the old servants a little bit, and took care of the housekeeping, so that they could survive on their own. The wives and parties kept coveting, and they kept coming to visit.The same is true for his wife or private gifts.As a result, they disappeared, but the calculation and production losses have been very high, and if there is little fox power, the Taixue father and son will starve to death.This is something that close friends can't do for them, and the fox does all kinds of tricks to do it for him.People are deeply sophisticated in the world, so they hate and fear resentment, tend to seek refuge, and sit idly by without saving them. Foxes are not well-versed in the world, so it is unfortunate that they gain the name of a loyal elder.What righteousness should do, rise up vigorously.Although the fox also holds the whip for it, he admires it. Liu Junrui, the blind man, said that the blind man was more than thirty years old, and he was constantly traveling to and from the Wei River. When he met a boat, he would ask, is there Yin Tong?It must also be said: Xia Yin is the Yin of Yin, and the phoenix tree is also the phoenix tree.There are those who live with him, and their babbles in their dreams are only these two characters. If you ask their name, it will change every ten days, and there is no one who asks it deeply.For more than ten years, many people know it, or whenever they want to ask, they often call out: "There is no Yintong here, so don't look for it."One day, the grain boat was moored by the river, and the blind man asked the same question as before, and one person stood up and said, "Is it Erye?"Yin Tong is here, what can you do.The blind man roared wildly like a tiger, threw himself at his neck, gnawed at his nose, blood dripped all over the ground, they were dismantled, unable to open the prison, and they all fell into the river and disappeared with the current.Later, the corpse was found in front of the Tianfei Palace—there is no corpse in Haikou, and no corpse can be found in the river, and it will surface in front of the Tianfei Palace.Tong punched his left side bone and broke it completely, and he couldn't let go, his ten fingers scratched Tong's shoulder and back, and penetrated more than an inch.Two cheeks and two cheeks, gnawed almost all the meat, so far I don't know what kind of enmity it is, I suspect it must be the parents' injustice.If you use a person without eyes to investigate a person with eyes, you will not be able to decide.If a weak person fights against a powerful person, he will be determined if he loses.For example, compared with Wu Xu's hatred of Chu, the revenge is even more difficult.After more than ten years of steadfast determination, he died and ate his flesh. Isn't it sincere, and heaven and earth can't violate it?Song Gaozong's song and dance lake mountain, after all, cannot be explained by weakness. ●Wang Kunxia wrote the first volume of Yandang Travel Notes, and Zhu Daojiang hung a banner for the rest of the book, and picked one of them: On the evening of April 17, I went out of Xiaoshimen to Beiguan. I want to sleep slightly, the mountain wind blows my clothes, and I wake up suddenly.I heard people saying: "The air at night is clear, especially secluded. You can see the golden and green mountains and rivers in Shengfeng's paintings."Thinking that the fellow traveler came at night, Er said again: Guqin inscription clouds, mountains are empty and waters are deep, thousands of sounds are rustling, no one has been left in the past, but Shi Yi, it is really wonderful to describe the difficult scene, try begging Hong Guzi to paint this meaning, unexpectedly Can't write.I am surprised who Si is, but I see Jing Hao.Sit up and listen to it, and said: Qing Dongpo is half of the painted bamboo wall, and the leaves are like spring clouds coming out of the mountains. The density and density are natural, without the appearance of angry branches.Another person said: "I saw his Western Tianmu poems recently, like the empty river and autumn, the mist and water are indistinct, the old cranes are always chirping, and the Qing Biao is far away, and the spirit of vertical and horizontal is also dissipated."The pen of a gifted scholar is full of ingenuity, and the pen of a flying fairy is natural, so the realm is different.Knowing that he was an immortal, he stood up and looked up, when there was a sudden rustle, the mountain flowers fell in disorder, and two birds rushed to the clouds.In his poems, there is a sentence in which Xu Zuoqing saw Xu Zuoqing in person, and he remembered it. ●Liu Nishan’s family lost gold bracelets, and plundered a little female slave, who sold them and played drums—there were many rascals in the capital, women leaned against the door at home, and her husband avoided them during the day, carrying two thorn baskets, and beat them with a small drum with a short handle. Buying sundries is called drumming.All the things stolen by maidservants and young children are mostly taken at low prices. Although the cover is not a thief, it is the wings of a real thief, but the stolen goods are small and small, and the value is not much.Therefore, the king's law can't be banned. He also plundered and asked the drummer about the shape of his clothes, but he couldn't find it. If you don't know me, you can't bear it now.Mrs. Chuanfei checked the sundries and put them in the dowry by mistake?If you ask for it, the result is true.However, the little female slave is not perfect, and Nishan regrets it all her life, and she always said to herself: "It is inevitable from time to time. There are such foxes everywhere in An Neng. Therefore, for more than 20 years in office, I have never used torture in prison." ●Many hills say, I saw a shaman in Jingzhou, but he couldn’t summon the celestial being, and then burned the talisman, and the shaman shook for a long time, and wrote a poem saying: "Life is as light as a leaf, and the remnant soul turns like a canopy. After practice, it will be three feet white, and the flowers will fade. One branch of red, although the cloud and rain period is long, the mist and roads are blocked, the autumn tomb is empty and ghosts sing, and I hate Song Jiadong.Knowing that he is a hanged ghost, the aunt asked her name, and wrote: "My concubine is from the Wu family, and my family is from Chuze."The combination of karma and fate is like a word; if your dream is not fulfilled, you will die in a hurry.The law uses the rites of sages and sages, and the gentleman should be ridiculed; if you understand the love of his children, talented people should be sympathetic.Talk about expressing grievances, don't ask your name.This talent does not diminish Li Qingzhao, and the self-evaluation of the sages and sons and daughters is also true. ●New Qi Harmony contains the crimes of Lv Liuliang on the list of Ming Sibang, saying: It is too much to evade the Buddha.This must not be true. The crime of staying good, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, can neither be starved in the first sun, follow the barbarians, nor escape from the shadows. It is like a real mountain people.Nai Qingjin took the exam and was listed in Jiaoxiang. His son Baozhong also had a high family name, so he entered Hanyuan as the second person.If you have eaten Zhou Su for a long time, you will never be more stubborn than Yin. Why do you want to write slanderous books, confuse the heads of Guizhou, and slyly rely on the barking of dogs and dogs?Checking his life, he is actually equal to Qian Qianyi, and he will be free when he dies.As for his lectures to evade Buddhism, because of his respect for Zhu, he had no choice but to evade King Lu as Zen. Since he had evacuated Zen, he had to implicate evasion of Buddha.Since the golden man fell into a dream, most of the Buddhists have gone too far, and most of them have regarded it as a crime, and they may leave good words.I have heard the words of Mingyu, a monk in Wutai, who said: The theory of Buddhism is that Song Confucianism is deep and Changli is shallow, Song Confucianism is fine and Changli is rough, but those who wear black fear Changli and not Song Confucianism, and Changli does not title Song Confucianism.The Buddha created by Gai Changli, who made offerings in sandalwood, was said by foolish couples; the Buddha created by Confucianism in the Song Dynasty, who saw his nature clearly, was said by scholar-bureaucrats.There are few scholar-bureaucrats in the world but many foolish couples, and what the monks receive and give is also less for the scholar-bureaucrats and more for the foolish couples.If the preaching of Changli is successful, there will be no smoke in the incense and no smoke in the garden, and there will be no land in the garden. Although there are great good teachers, they can lead the crowds of sand in the Ganges River to speak the Dharma without sleeping.This is like using soldiers, first cut off the food road, and if you don't attack, you will collapse yourself.Therefore, I am afraid of Changli, and I am even more titled Changli; so that the Confucianism of the Song Dynasty is superior, but you don’t have to follow me if Confucianism is the same, and Confucianism is like this, and you don’t have to follow me. As we know, two-phase branches are not harmful.Therefore, he is not afraid of Song Confucianism, nor is he very fond of Song Confucianism.However, Confucianism before the Tang Dynasty used practical language, while Confucianism after the Song Dynasty talked about everything.The preaching of Buddhism by lecturers has nothing to do with Shishi, but it is only noisy.Recording it as a merit is solidly a party theory, and recording it as a crime also pays attention to keeping a good ear. Slave Wang Fa came back from hunting at night. Under the moonlight, he saw a man grabbing an arm for two people, dragging things, but there was no sound. He suspected that in the dark night, he stripped his clothes and fired a gun into the void. , the two rushed away.One person went back and ran back, but he was gone in no time.Fang knew it was a ghost.At the entrance of the village, the lights of a family come in and out, the conversation is noisy, and the bride hangs and wakes up.The woman said, my aunt ordered me to make cakes for dinner, and took away two or three pieces for the dog. My aunt suspected that I had stolen the food, and criticized his cheeks. The injustice was beyond reproach, and the idiot stood under the tree. After hesitating, another woman came to instigate him, in a trance, and if he didn't know it, he took off the belt and hanged him, and the second woman helped him.Stuffy and painful, almost unspeakable, gradually seemed to fall asleep, and did not realize that the body had gone out.A woman said: Let me persuade you first.A woman said: "If it's not me, I can't decide it later, and I will be my generation."During the fight between the parties, there was a sudden thunderbolt, and the flames shone in all directions. The two wives were startled away, and I had to go back.After returning home at night, I often heard crying from afar, saying that I would destroy my affairs, and vowed to kill each other, and I was not afraid of sending out.One night, when he heard the crying again, he said, "If you kill someone, I will save them, and you will tell God, and I will be right."If you dare to kill, you will kill, why bother to be illusory and terrifying.Naturally, then die.However, saving people from death also attracts resentment from those who want to kill, how many people should do nothing?This slave can also be said to be a little different. ●Mr. Song Qingyuan said that in the past when Mr. Wang Tanzhai was studying the curtain, a friend said that he sleepwalked to the underworld, and saw dozens of people in clothes piled into it.Occasionally, I saw an official who seemed to know me but didn't remember his name. I tried to bow to him and answered.Because I asked, who is this, who made this shape?The official said with a smile: "You also live in the shogunate, so there is no old friend among them?"Said: servant Dan has been adjutant twice, but he has not entered the department.The official said: But I really don't know, this is the so-called Mr. Four Rescuers.Ask four what is the meaning of saving, saying: There are formulas passed down from generation to generation, saying: saving the life does not save the dead, saving the officials does not save the people, saving the old does not save the young, and saving the old does not save the new.救生不救死者，死者已死，断无可救，生者尚生，又杀以抵命，是多死一人也，故宁委曲以出之，而死者衔冤与否，则非所计也；救官不救民者，上控之案，使冤得申，则官之祸福不可测，使不得申，即反坐，不过军流耳，而官之枉断与否，则非所计也；救大不救小者，罪归上官，则权位重者谴愈重，且牵累必多，罪归微官，则责任轻者罚可轻，且归结较易，而小官之当罪与否，则非所计也；救旧不救新者，旧官已去，有所未了，羁留之恐不能偿，新官方来，有所委卸，强抑之尚可以办，其新官之能堪与否，则非所计也。是皆以君子之心，行忠厚长者之事，非有所求取巧为舞文，亦非有所恩仇私相报复。然人情百态事变万端，原不能执一而论。苟坚持此例，则矫枉过直，顾此失彼，本造福而反造孽，本弭事而反酿事，亦往往有之。天日所鞫即以此贻祸者。问其果报何如乎？曰：种瓜得瓜，种豆得豆，夙业牵缠，因缘终凑，未来生中不过亦遇四救先生，列诸四不救而已矣。俯仰之间霍然忽醒，莫明其入梦之故。岂神明或假告人欤。 ●乾隆癸丑，春夏间京中多疫，以张景岳法治之，十死八九，以吴又可法治之，亦不甚验。有桐城一医，以重剂石膏治冯鸿胪星实之姬人，见者骇异，然呼吸将绝，应手辄痊。踵其法者活人无算，有一剂用至八两，一人服至四斤者，虽刘守真之原病式，张子和之儒门事亲，专用寒凉，亦未敢至是。实自古所未闻矣。考喜用石膏，莫过于明缪仲淳——名希雍，天崇间人，与张景岳同时，而所传各别。本非中道，故王懋竑白田集有石膏论一篇，力辩其非，不知何以取效如此。此亦五运六气，适值是年，未可执为定例也。 ●从伯君章公，言中表某丈，月夕纳凉于村外，遇一人似是书生，长揖曰：仆不幸获谴于社公，自祷弗解也，一社之中，惟君祀社公最丰，而数十年一无所祈请，社公甚德君，亦甚重君，君为一祷，必见从。表丈曰：尔何人，曰：某故诸生，与君先人亦相识，今下世三十余年矣。昨偶向某家索食，为所诉也。表丈曰：己事不祈请，乃祈请人事乎？人事不祈请，乃祈请鬼事乎？仆无能为役，先生休矣。其人掉臂去曰：自了汉耳，不足谋也。夫肴酒必丰，敬鬼神也，无所祈请，远之也，敬鬼神而远之，即民之义也，视流俗之谄渎，迂儒之傲侮，为得其中矣。说此事时，余甫八九岁，此表丈偶忘姓名，其时乡风淳厚，大抵必端谨笃实之家，始相与为婚姻，行谊似此者，多不能揣度为谁也。高山仰止，景行行止。俯仰七十年间，能勿睪然远想哉。 ●黄叶道人潘斑，尝与一林下巨公连坐，屡呼巨公为兄，巨公怒且笑曰：老夫今七十余矣。时潘已被酒，昂首曰：兄前朝年岁，当与前朝人序齿，不应阑入本朝。若本朝年岁，则仆以顺治二年九月生，兄以顺治元年五月入大清，仅差十余月耳。唐诗曰：与兄行年较一岁。称兄自是古礼，君何过责耶？满座为之咋舌。论者谓潘生狂士，此语太伤忠厚，宜其坎壈终身，然不能谓其无理也。余作四库全书总目明代集部，以练子宁至金川门卒龚诩八人，列解缙、胡广诸人前，并附案语曰：谨案练子宁以下八人，皆惠宗旧臣也，考其通籍之年，盖有在解缙等后者，然一则效死于故君，一则邀恩于新主，枭鸾异性，未可同居，故分别编之，使各从其类。至龚诩卒于成化辛丑，更远在缙等后，今亦升列于前，用以昭名教是非，千秋论定，纡青拖紫之荣，竟不能与荷戟老兵，争此一纸之先后也。黄泉易逝，青史难诬，潘生是言，又安可以佻薄废乎？ ●曾映华言，有数书生赴乡试，长夏溽暑，趁月夜行，倦投一废祠之前，就阶小憩。或睡或醒，一生闻祠后有人声，疑为守瓜枣者，又疑为盗，屏息细听，一人曰：先生何来？一人曰：顷与邻冢争地界，讼于社公，先生老于幕府者，请揣其胜负。一人笑曰：先生真书痴耶？夫胜负乌有常也，此事可使后讼者胜，诘先讼者曰：彼不讼而尔讼，是尔兴戎侵彼也；可使先讼者胜，诘后讼者曰：彼讼而尔不讼，是尔先侵彼，知理曲也；可使后至者胜，诘先至者曰：尔乘其未来，早占之也；可使先至者胜，诘后至者曰：久定之界，尔忽翻旧局，是尔无故生衅也；可使富者胜，诘贫者曰：尔贫无赖，欲使畏讼赂尔也；可使贫者胜，诘富者曰：尔为富不仁，兼并不已，欲以财势压孤茕也；可使强者胜，诘弱者曰：人情抑强而扶弱，尔欲以肤受之诉耸听也；可使弱者胜，诘强者曰：天下有强凌弱，无弱凌强，彼非真枉，不敢冒险撄尔锋也；可以使两胜，曰：无券无证，纠结安穷，中分以息讼，亦可以已也；可以使两败，曰：人有阡陌，鬼宁有疆畔，一棺之外，皆人所有，非尔辈所有，让为闲田可也。以是种种胜负，乌有常乎？一人曰：然则究竟当何如？一人曰：是十说者各有词可执，又名有词以解，纷纭反覆，终古不能己也。城隍社公不可知，若夫冥吏鬼卒，则长拥两美庄矣。语讫遂寂，此真老于幕府之言也。 ●蛇能报冤，古记有之，他毒物则不能也。然闻故老之言曰：凡遇毒物，无杀害心则终不遭螫，或见即杀害，必有一日受其毒。验之颇信。是非物之知报，气机相感耳。狗见屠狗者群吠，非识其人，亦感其气也。又有生啖毒虫者，云能益力，毒虫中人或至死，全贮其毒于腹中，乃反无恙，此又何理欤？崔庄一无赖少年习此术，尝见其握一赤练蛇，断其首而生啮，如有余味，殆其刚悍鸷忍之气，足以胜之乎？力何必益，即益力，方药亦颇多，又何必是也。 ●贾公霖言，有贸易来往于樊屯者，与一狐友。狐每邀之至所居，房舍一如人家，但出门后回顾则不见耳。一夕饮狐家，妇出行酒，色甚妍丽，此人醉后心荡，戏捘其腕。妇目狐，狐侧睨笑曰：弟乃欲作陈平耶？亦殊不怒，笑谑如平时。此人归后，一日忽家中客作，控一驴送其妇来，云得急信，君暴中风，故借驴仓皇连夜至，此人大骇，以为同伴相戏也。旅舍无地容眷属，呼客作送归，客作已自去，距家不一日程，时甫辰已，乃自控送妇，中途遇少年与妇摩肩过，手触妇足，妇怒詈少年，惟笑谢，语涉轻薄，此人愤与相搏，致驴惊逸入歧路，蜀秫方茂，斯须不见。此人舍少年追妇，寻蹄迹行一二里，驴陷淖中，妇则不知所往矣。野田连陌，四无人踪，彻夜奔驰，彷徨至晓，姑骑驴且返，再商觅妇，未及数里，闻路旁大呼，曰：贼得矣，则邻村驴昨夜被窃，方四出缉捕也。众相执缚，大受捶楚，赖遇素识，多方辩说始得免。懊丧至家，则纺车皍然，妇方引线，问以昨事，茫然不知。始悟妇与客作及少年，皆狐所幻，惟驴为真耳。狐之报复恶矣，然衅则此人自启也。 ●壬子春，滦阳采木者数十人，夜宿山坳，见隔涧坡上，有数鹿散游，又有二人，往来林下相对泣，共诧人入鹿群，鹿何不惊，疑为仙鬼，又不应对泣，虽崖高水急，人径不通，然月明如昼，了然可见，有微辨其中一人，似旧木商某者，俄山风陡作，木叶乱鸣，一虎自林突出，搏二鹿殪焉。知顷所见乃其生魂矣。东坡诗曰：未死神先泣，是之谓乎？闻木商亦无大恶，但心计深密，事事务得便宜耳。阴谋者道家所忌，良有以夫。 ●又闻巴公彦弼言，征乌什时，一日攻城急，一人方奋力酣战，忽有飞矢自旁来，不及见也，一人在侧见之，急举刀代格，反自贯颅死。此人感而哀奠之，夜梦死者曰：尔我前世为同官，凡任劳任怨之事，吾皆卸尔，凡见功见长之事，则抑尔不得前，以是因缘，冥司注今生代尔死。自今以往，两无恩仇。我自有赏恤，毋庸尔祭也。此与木商事相近，木商阴谋故谴重，此人小智故谴轻耳。然则所谓巧者，非正其拙欤。 ●门人郝瑷，孟县人，余己卯典试所取士也。成进士，授进贤令，菲衣恶食，视民事如家事，仓库出入，月月造一册，预储归途舟车费，扃一笥中，虽窘急不用铢两，囊箧皆结束室中，如治装状，盖无日不为去官计。人见其日日可去官，亦无如之何，后患病乞归，不名一钱，以授徒终于家。闻其少时，值春社游人如织，见一媪将二女村妆野服，而姿致天然，瑷与同行，未尝侧盼，忽见妪与二女踏乱石，横行至绝涧，鹄立树下，怪其不由人径，若有所避。转凝睇视之，媪从容前致词曰：节物暄妍，率儿辈踏青，各觅眷属，以公正人不敢近，亦乞公毋近儿辈，使剌促不宁。瑷悟为狐魅，掉臂去之。然则花月之妖，为人心自召，明矣。 ●木兰伐官木者，遥见对山有数虎，悬崖削壁，非迂回数里不能至，人不畏虎，虎亦不畏人也。俄见别队伐木者，冲虎径过，众顿足危栗，然人如不见虎，虎如不见人也。数日后，相晤话及。别队者曰：是日亦遥见众人，亦似遥闻呼噪声，然所见乃数巨石，无一虎也。是殆命不遭咥乎。然命何能使虎化石，其必有司命者矣。司命者空虚无朕，冥漠无知，又何能使虎化石，其必天与鬼神矣。天与鬼神能司命，而顾谓天即理也，鬼神二气之良能也。然则理气浑沦，一屈一伸，偶遇斯人怒而搏者，遂峙而嶙峋乎？吾无以测之矣。 ●景州高冠瀛，以梦高江村而生，故亦名士奇。笃学能文，小试必第一，而省闱辄北，竟坎壈以终。年二十余时，日者推其命，谓天官文昌魁星贵人，皆集于一宫，于法当以鼎甲入翰林，而是岁只得食饩，计其一生遭遇，亦无更得志于食饩者。盖其赋命本薄，故虽极盛之运，所得不过如是也。田白岩曰：张文和公八字，日者以其一生仕履，较量星度，其开坊仅抵一衿耳。此与冠瀛之命可以互勘，术家宜以此消息，不可徒据星度，遽断休咎也。又尝见一术士，云凡阵亡将士，推其死绥之岁月，运必极盛。盖尽节一时，垂名千古，馨香百世，荣逮子孙，所得有在王侯将相之上者故也。立论极奇，而实有至理。此又法外之意，不在李虚中等格局中矣。 ●冠瀛久困名场，意殊抑郁，尝语余及雪崖曰：闻旧家一宅，留宿者夜辄遭魇，或鬼或狐，莫能明也。一生有胆力，欲伺为祟者何物，故寝其中，二更后果有黑影瞥落地，似前似却，闻生转侧，即伏不动，知其畏人，佯睡以俟之。渐作鼾声，俄觉自足而上，稍及胸腹，即觉昏沉，急奋右手搏之，执得其尾，即以左手扼其项，噭然一声，作人言求释。急呼灯视之，乃一黑狐，众共捺制，刃穿其髀，贯以索，而自系于左臂，度不能幻化，乃持刀问其作祟意。狐哀鸣曰：凡狐之灵者，皆修炼求仙，最上者调息炼神，讲坎离龙虎之旨，吸精服气，饵日月星斗之华，用以内结金丹，蜕形羽化，是须仙授，亦须仙才，若是者吾不能；次则修容成素女之术，妖媚蛊惑，摄精补益，内外配合，亦可成丹，然所采少则道不成，所采多则戕人利己，不干冥谪，必有天刑，若是者吾不敢。故以剽窃之功，为猎取之计，乘人酣睡，仰鼻息以收余气，如蜂采蕊，无损于花，凑合渐多，融结为一，亦可元神不散，岁久通灵，即我辈是也。虽道浅术疏，积功亦苦，如不见释，则百年精力
