Wang Juren Jin Ying said: There was a scholar in Jiangning who lived in the abandoned garden of his hometown. One night, when the moon was bright, a beautiful woman peeked in front of his window and knew that it was either a ghost or a fox. But because she loves her beauty, she is not afraid. The scholar greeted her to enter the room, and the woman approached her tenderly and affectionately. But there was never a word, she didn't answer when she asked, she just smiled and looked at him. It's been like this for over a month, I don't know why. One day, the scholar pulled her to ask her questions, and the woman took a pen and wrote: "I was the concubine of a certain Hanlin in the former Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, I died of a short life. Because of my skill in slander and frame, my flesh and blood are as incompatible as water and fire. Rong. The Yin Division condemned and punished him as a dumb ghost. It has been buried for more than 200 years. If you can write the ten chapters of the Diamond Sutra for me, so that I can rely on the power of the Buddha and save myself from the sea of suffering, then I will be grateful from generation to generation." The scholar followed her request. On the day after the writing was finished, the woman went to the scholar to worship again and again, but she still took the pen and wrote: "Relying on the repentance of the golden scriptures, I have escaped from the realm of ghosts, but the sins of the previous life are heavy, so I can only bring karma to reincarnate. , I have to be a mute woman for three lifetimes before I can speak!"
Yuewei Caotang Notes Volume II Luanyang Xiaoxia Record II
When Dong Wenke was serving as Shao Sikong, he said that he used to live in the countryside of Fuyang County. There was a village old man sitting at a neighbor's house and heard the sound of reading, saying that this was a noble person, please meet. He looked at me carefully again and again, asked about the date of birth, pondered for a long time, and said, "Looking at your destiny, you are all a first-rank official. In a certain year, you can be appointed magistrate, and a certain year will govern a large county, and a certain year will officially Appointed as magistrate of a large county, so-and-so was promoted to pass sentence, so-and-so was promoted to prefect, so-and-so was promoted from prefect to governor, so-and-so was promoted to governor, so-and-so was promoted to governor, please do it yourself, you will know me in the future That's right. I never saw this old man again, and his words didn't come true. But if you compare the official positions in his life carefully, the so-called magistrates are the seven-rank officials of the household department by Bagongde. The so-called jurisdiction over large counties is the Ren is Shuji Shi. The so-called official appointment refers to the appointment of editors. The so-called general judgment refers to Ren Zhongyun. The so-called prefect refers to serving as a scholar. The so-called political envoy refers to serving as a cabinet scholar. It refers to the minister of the Ministry of Industry. The grades of these officials are consistent, and the time of appointment is also consistent. The difference is that the old villager said that the local official, and I was appointed as the Beijing official. Speaking of which, his words are fulfilled and unfulfilled, and they are not fulfilled. It's fulfilled. I just don't know what he said about the governor, and what he will be assigned accordingly. Later, Dong Wenke was promoted to the Minister of Rites in the same year, which is also in line with the governor's grade. According to the calculation of stems and branches, there may be extraordinary results, or not at all, or half of them should be fulfilled. , Half of them do not come true. I have heard the most accurate case, and pondered over the so-called eight characters, the rich and the poor, and it is probably the same. In the middle, there are some similarities and differences in the rise and fall of personnel. The wife of Mr. Zou Xiaoshan from Wuxi and Anzhou Mr. Chen Mishan's wife has the same horoscope. Zou Xiaoshan is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Chen Mishan is the governor of Guizhou. Both are second-rank officials. In terms of position, the governor is not as honorable as the servant; in terms of salary, the servant is It is not as rich as the chief envoy. The two complement each other. Both wives live a long life. Mrs. Chen was widowed early, but she was healthy and happy in her old age. They complement each other. This may be due to the fact that the two are located in the north and south, and their birthdays are different. My sixth nephew and servant Liu Yunpeng were only separated by a wall when they were born, and the two windows faced each other. They were born at the same time. Cry, not only at the same moment, but at the same minute. My nephew died at the age of sixteen, and the servant is still there. Could it be that there is a certain amount of blessings given to this life? My nephew grew up in wealth and honor, first Exhausted Fulu; slaves grow up in poverty and lowly, consumption is not much, Fulu has not been exhausted? The situation of profit and loss, of course, is the case in principle, please see the person who understands fate to explain in detail.
Grandpa Guangji Gong, who served as a guard in Zhenfan County in the early years of Kangxi, said that he was the wife of Li Taixue, who often abused his concubine. There is an old lady who can enter the underworld, the so-called impermanence. She said to Li's wife: "The lady and the concubine have a feud, but she should be beaten 200 times. Now you are so jealous that you beat her almost more than ten times. If you dont have a good time, then you owe her again. Besides, a woman from a good family is punished, and according to the law of the official family, she does not take off her clothes, while a lady must take off her clothes and insult her. You think this is very happy, but you are guilty of ghosts and gods. Taboo. The lady and I have a good relationship. I peeked at the books in the underworld, and I dare not tell you." Li's wife mocked: "The dead woman is talking nonsense, do you want me to pray to make money? Mo Luo provoked the rebellion of Wang Fuchen, and the rebellion swarmed. Li Taixue was killed in the military chaos, and his concubine returned to the deputy general Han Gong. Han Gong liked Li Concubine's intelligence and was very fond of him. In the hands of the concubine. Li's wife was taken away by the bandits, the bandits were defeated, Li's wife was captured, and the reward was given to the soldiers, which happened to be distributed to Han Gong. Li's wife regarded Li's wife as a slave and made her kneel in the hall and said: "You If you can follow my instructions, get up every morning, kneel in front of the dresser, take off your pants, lie on top of her and get five lashes, and then follow orders, so that you can live. Otherwise, if you are the wife of a thief party, they will kill you, cut you into inch-by-inch lengths, and feed them to pigs and dogs. "Wife Li was afraid that she would die and nothing would be left, so she kowtowed and was willing to obey. But the concubine didn't want her to die immediately, and the whipping was not heavy, just let her know the pain. After more than a year, Li's wife fell ill and died. The number of whips is almost equal to the number of whips Li's concubine has received. Li's wife is really stubborn and shameless. She was also hated by ghosts and gods, and secretly deprived her of her energy. Duke Han did not shy away from this, and he raised it. It is used as an example to illustrate retribution, so people know it in more detail. Duke Han also said that it is like a complete exchange of positions. In the Ming Dynasty, he went to Xiangdeng area to play, and lived in the same building with the warlock Zhang Yuanhu. Zhang Yuanhu knew that the wife of the owner of the house had abused his concubine too much, and he felt uneasy, and said in private: "Taoism has a method of borrowing form. That is, if he has not yet cultivated, his qi and blood have been weakened, and he cannot repay the pill, so he will find a strong person and take advantage of his sleep to exchange bodies with him. I have learned this method before, so let's try it. "The next day, the master suddenly heard his wife talking in the concubine's room, and the concubine talking in his wife's room. When he went out, he found that the wife's voice was the concubine, and the concubine's voice was the wife. The concubine got the wife's body, but just silently Sitting there; the wife got the body of the concubine, very unwilling, and quarreled endlessly, and the relatives couldn't stop the matter. When the official was reported to the government, the official got angry and said it was a cowardice, beat her husband, and kicked out Everyone has no way. But according to the physical identification, the wife is actually a concubine. The concubine is not a wife, and cannot exercise the power of a wife, so she has to live separately for a lifetime. This is especially strange.
Legend has it that there was once a school teacher. When the moon was bright in the summer night, he was surrounded by a group of students, and then he took them to the ridge outside the Hejian Xianwang Temple to enjoy the shade. The method of answering the test is loud and clear, like ringing a bell and drum. Then, he asked the students to read the "Book of Filial Piety" aloud. During the recitation, the teacher raised his head and suddenly saw that there were people in the front of the ancestral hall under the two ancient cypress trees with thick circumferences. When I got closer, I saw that it had a strange shape, not like a human being, but I was confident that there would be no ghosts or ghosts before the dedication of the king's temple, so I went up to ask the names of those people, and replied that they were called Mao Chang, Guan Changqing, Yan Zhi, and asked with a cross. What happened so far? Answer Day came here to meet King Xian. The teacher was unable to ask for it, so he bowed again and asked to teach the scriptures. Only Mao Chang and Guan Changqing answered in unison: "What you are explaining, can't understand, can't teach." The teacher said again: "The poem "The meaning is infinite, and a fool like me can teach it better, Mr. Yan. Tell me about the "Book of Filial Piety", can you?" Yan Zhi turned her face and said, "Just now you read the "Book of Filial Piety" aloud, and the sentences are left out and reversed. Besides, this is not the version I handed down, I don't know where it came from. Talk about it." Soon, it seemed that the voice of King Xian came over: "Where is the drunk outside the door, all nonsense, after arguing for so long, it's time to get out." I think this matter is made up by an elegant and insightful person They make jokes to laugh at readers who are not very interested and short-sighted. This is exactly the sentence in "Zhuangzi": "The wind comes from a hole, and the milk comes to the nest".
My late father, Yao Angong, was stern by nature, and there were no miscellaneous guests at home. One day, Yao Angong was talking to a man in tattered clothes, and called our brothers to salute him and said, "This is Song Manzhu's great-grandson. It's been a long time since I've heard the news, but I've only seen it now. During the war in the late Ming Dynasty, your great-grandfather was eleven years old. He was a wanderer in the war, and only survived by relying on Song Manzhu." So he tried every means to make a living for him, and warned our brothers: "What morality should repay, there is no need to talk about karma, but karma is indeed not bad. The grace of rebirth, after becoming rich and rich, seeing the benefactor's descendants scattered, he was as indifferent as a stranger. Later, a certain gentleman was sick and was taking medicine, and he saw the benefactor handed him two letters in a trance. None of them were sealed. At first glance, it was a letter begging for rescue. A certain man knocked the cup on the ground and said, "I died too late! , died that night. "
According to Song Mengquan, an inspector, a certain public servant was an advisor in the Ming Dynasty, and he once held a "fuji" to ask the immortals about his lifespan. The gods judged him to die on a certain day of a certain year. It's not too far away when a certain man calculates the date, so he is often unhappy. However, when it came to the day when he was supposed to die, he was safe and sound, and later entered the dynasty and was appointed to the ninth column. Once he met a colleague's family holding a "helping", and the immortal who told him his lifespan in the Ming Dynasty came down again. He took this opportunity to inquire about the reason why the judgment of the year was not fulfilled. The immortal's sentence to him said: "If you don't die, what can I do?" A certain prince raised his head and pondered, suddenly realized, and rushed to prepare the car to retire. It turned out that the death date of a certain prince was sentenced by the gods to be the 19th day of the third month of the Jiashen year, which was the day when the Ming Dynasty perished, Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in the coal mountain, and all officials of the Ming Dynasty went to die from the Lord. A certain man survived without going to disaster.
When Mr. Shen Jiaoyuan was the head of Aofeng Academy, he showed me an old inkstone of Zhao Zongyi from Gaoyi. On the inkstone's forehead there are six characters "Oriental Unknown Inkstone"; there is an inscription on the back of the inkstone, which reads: "The waning moon is faint, the Taibai stars are shining. The rooster crows three times and knocks five times. At this time, it is written to impeach the eunuch. I will remember your merits, and if you fail, you will be demoted together." Probably when he was impeaching Wei Zhongxian, he used this inkstone to grind and write a note. There is a line of small characters at the end, the inscription: "Wang Duo Shu, the doorman". This line of characters is omitted and not engraved, but the black traces penetrate deep into the inkstone and cannot be seen when the inkstone is dry. Once soaked in water, these five words will be clear. According to legend, Wang Duo was asked to write this inscription, and Zhao Zhongyi was demoted before he could engrave it. Later, Zhao Zhongyi engraved this inscription at the exile, telling the engraver that the last line should not be engraved. However, after more than 100 years, this line of words has not been washed away, which is extremely abnormal. Some people say that Zhao Zhongyi is jealous of evil. Yuyang Shanren said in his notes that Wang Duo's character was declining, and so was his book quality. And Zhao Zhongyi had already noticed it first. To take away his name is to take away his meaning. But his name still can't be washed away, to show that he was once rejected by Zhao Zhongyi. The ghosts and spirits of heaven and earth often reveal their ingenuity occasionally in one incident, so as to make people alert. Maybe this is the case.
In the Gengwu year of Qianlong, the official treasury jade was stolen. The officials searched the garden households one by one. When the garden householder Changming was checking the books, he suddenly made a boyish voice: "The jade is not lost, but the people killed it. It was me who killed me, and I am a dead soul." be questioned. The people who tried the case were Yao Angong, Yu Wenyi and others. The ghost said first: "My name is Er Ge, I am fourteen years old, I live in Haidian, and my father's name is Bo Xingwang. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month last year, Chang Ming took me to see the lanterns. Said to tell my father. Chang Ming became angry, took off his clothes, strangled me, and buried me by the river bank. My father suspected that Chang Ming had hidden me, and sued him to the inspector of the city. Because no evidence was found, the case was transferred to the Criminal Department. , decided to arrest the culprit. My soul often follows Chang Ming, but I can't get close to his body. As long as the distance is four or five feet, I feel that his heat is like a flame, which makes me uncomfortably hot. Later, his heat weakened a little. , the distance was first reduced to two or three feet, and finally it was about one foot. Yesterday, I didn't feel any heat at all, so I quickly attached to him." The ghost added: "During the first trial, I followed Chang Ming to the punishment department. ." Then, the ghost told the date, so the government searched for the old case, and learned that the ghost's body was next to the first willow tree on the river bank. When I dug it up, I saw that the body had not decayed. He found his father. After identification, his father cried out, "It's my poor son." In this way, an illusory case was finally verified. During the interrogation, the ghost called Chang Ming's name, as if he suddenly woke up from a dream like a living person, and spoke in Chang Ming's tone; and when he called Er Gu's name, he seemed to pass out and turned into Er Gu again. the sound of. In this way, the two tones debated each other for a while, and Chang Ming finally had no choice but to plead guilty. In addition, the father and son describe family affairs in a clear and organized manner. At this point, there is nothing suspicious about this case, so the facts are reported to the above, and the judgment is made in accordance with the law. On the day the verdict was handed down, the ghost was overjoyed. Er Ge used to sell cakes for a living. At this moment, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Sell cakes! Sell cakes!" Hearing this familiar voice, his father said both happily and sadly, "Son! It's been a long time since I heard you. It's the same as when you were alive, son, where are you going?" The ghost replied, "Father, I don't know either, I'm leaving, I'm leaving." If you ask Chang Ming later, you won't be able to. Made a double tone.
Zhang Shouchang's deputy envoy, a native of Nanpi, once read a case file of a prison sentence at night when he was a Taoist priest of Kaigui in Henan. He thought to himself and said to himself: "If you kill yourself by cutting your neck with a knife, the knife mark should go in and be heavy and come out light, but now it goes in light and comes out heavy, why?" Suddenly he heard a sigh behind him and said, "You Pretty sensible." He looked back, but there was no one there. Ai sighed and said: "How powerful, the trial of the case is really terrible! Fortunately, this time is good, how can I guarantee that other days will be good?" So he wrote a letter and returned home.
Gao Rongzhi, the father of his late aunt Gao Yiren, was a county magistrate in Lingchuan, Shanxi. He got an old jade horse. The texture of the jade horse was not very white, and it was stained with blood that could not be washed off. He used red sandalwood to make a base for the jade horse, which was often placed on the desk. Yuma's front legs were in a state of kneeling, but one day, his left leg suddenly stretched out of the seat. Gao Gong was shocked, and co-signed the biography of this monster, saying that Cheng Zhu advocated "checking things", but they could not "check" this "thing". A hotel guest said: "A large object can be used for a long time to make monsters and monsters, and it can also make monsters and monsters with too much energy from people. This principle is very clear, it is not surprising." Pending. The next day, Yuma's left leg bent back into the seat and returned to its original shape. Duke Gao said, "It's really good." Then he threw the jade horse into the stove. The jade horse seemed to have a "yoyo" cry in the stove. Since then, no other weirdness has occurred, but the Gao family's courtyard has gradually fallen into disrepair. Gao Yiren said that the jade horse was burned for two days and split in two. She also saw half of its body burned. In addition, two peony flowers suddenly grew on the pillar of Caos house in Qingkou, King of Wuqing, one purple and one green. Genius withers and drops. The root of the flower grows from the column, and the texture is connected to the column; two inches near the column is still dead wood, and it gradually turns green after two inches away. My first wife was the niece of the Cao family. She saw the peony on the hall column when she was a child, and she thought it was an auspicious sign at the time. My grandfather, Mr. Xuefeng, said, "Abnormal things are demons, and there are no auspicious signs!" Later, the Cao family's courtyard also fell into disrepair.
My grandmother said that after Cao Huachun died, his family was buried with a jade belt from the Ming Dynasty. A few years later, a white snake was often seen in front of his tomb. Later the tomb was flooded and the coffin was damaged. On the day of the burial, other precious things were there, but the jade belt was gone. There are knots on the snake's body, like the shape of a jade belt. Could it be that his fierce and sinister soul has changed because of the jade belt?
My grandfather, Mr. Zhang Xuefeng, was of noble character, especially fond of collecting books. In the study, the four treasures of the study are complete, and the books and historical materials are neat and orderly. He always locks the door when he goes out, and no one is allowed to open it without him. In the yard in front of the study, there were lush flowers and trees, and the moss on the ground was vying for green. Without his orders, no one dared to take a step. When my uncle Jian Tinggong was twelve or thirteen years old, when my grandfather was out, he sneaked under a tree in the courtyard to enjoy the shade, and heard people walking around in the study. He suspected that his grandmother had returned, so he watched with bated breath, but saw a woman sitting on the bamboo chair, as beautiful as the beauty in the painting. Opposite the chair was a large mirror, five feet high, and the reflection in the mirror was a fox. Duke Jianting was too scared to move, and secretly watched what the fox was going to do. The woman suddenly saw the image in the mirror and hurriedly circled the mirror to breathe. Immediately, the mirror was blurred. After a while, the fox sat back on the chair again, and the mist on the mirror slowly disappeared. Looking in the mirror again, she turned into a beautiful woman again. Afraid of being discovered, Duke Jian Ting shrank back lightly. Later, he secretly told Yao Angong. Yao Angong once told several grandchildren about the chapter of "Self-cultivation in the University", for example: "There is nothing on the mirror, so the image has nowhere to hide. If you are partial, do you cover your eyes beforehand?" He said, not only selfishness, but also public minds can cover their eyes. A virtuous gentleman may become angry when he is plotted against a villain, and may become confused for a while, and may confuse right and wrong. In the past, Bao Gong's petty officials feigned power to save prisoners who should have been beaten. This is the same reason that the demonic qi covers the mirror. Therefore, in order to be sincere and sincere, upright and innocent, you must first have extensive exposure to life to gain knowledge.
An old woman who sold flowers said: There is a house in the capital near an empty garden, and there were many foxes in the garden. There was a beautiful woman who crossed the low wall at night to be intimate with the boy next door. For fear of leaking, she began to pretend her name. Later, Huan Ai gradually became harmonious, and it was estimated that they would not abandon each other, so she pretended to be the fox girl in the garden. The young man liked her beauty and did not hesitate to refuse. After a long time, suddenly tiles were thrown from the house of this woman's house, and she heard scolding saying: "I have lived in the garden for a long time, and the little children playfully threw bricks and stones, disturbing the neighbors, or some. There is really no debauchery. Why are you insulting me about things that confuse people?" It was only then that the matter leaked out. Weird! The temptation of the vixen often lies in others, and this woman actually lies in the fox. A person who is good at seduction is compared to a vixen, and this vixen is even more steadfast than a human being.
There was a wanderer who made a living by painting and calligraphy. He took a concubine in Kyoto and loved her very much. If someone invites him to a banquet, he will definitely return to the concubine to eat fruit and delicious food. His concubine also fell in love with him. But not long after, the wanderer was in critical condition and said to his concubine at the end of his life: "I have no home, which will make you have no home; I have no relatives, which will also make you without support. I live by pen and ink, and I After you die, you will find another good son-in-law, and don't hold the pipa. This is forced by the situation and it is only natural. I have not left a debt to burden you, and you have no parents and brothers. But I must make an agreement with him that you will be allowed to go to my grave every year during the sacrificial season. If I can do this, I will die without any regrets." The concubine shed tears and nodded in agreement with his will. After You Shi died, his concubine married a wealthy man. Hao Shi promised her to worship her old husband, and he loved her very much. However, this concubine was often unhappy, never forgetting the old kindness of the wanderer. Every night, she dreamed of sharing the bed with her old husband, and sometimes she would talk with her, as if talking to her old husband. After Hao Shi noticed it, he secretly asked the warlock to write Fukou Town Ghost. After that, the concubine stopped dreaming, but became ill again, and her condition became more and more serious, and her life was dying. When he was about to die, he tapped the pillow on his forehead and said to Hao Shi: "My old husband has been very kind to me, and I can't forget it. You know this very well, and I have never kept it a secret. Last night, Sha dreamed that he came to me and said: "I was taken by Driven away for a long time, today came again. You are so sick, why don't you come back with me? , the concubine has promised him. If I can get your special favor and bury my concubine's body in the grave of my old husband, I will repay the kindness with grass. I hope you will consider this unreasonable request. "Close your eyes and die. Hao Shi is a Hao Shi, and he said to people generously and eloquently: "The soul has already left, what's the use of detaining a slaughter? Duke Yang Yue can make Princess Lechang reunite, so can't I make some lovers reunite their families under the spring! "Finally, according to the concubine's request, her body was buried in the tomb of the wandering warriors. This is what happened during the years of Jiayin and Yimao in Yongzheng. I was eleven or twelve years old at the time. Come on, this concubine remarried and lost her old husband, married with a second heart and lost her husband. It should be said that she has no basis for advancing and retreating, and does not conform to the etiquette. Mr. He Zishan also lied: "It is better to die at the time than to die in memory of the old husband. And die. "Mr. He Li'an said:" The meaning of "Spring and Autumn" blames the wise, and it is not allowed to use the standard of scholar-officials to demand young children. For this concubine, you can pity her experience and sympathize with her wish. "
Butcher Xu Fang carried two jars of wine at night, and when he was tired, he rested under the tree. The moon was as bright as day. There was a whining sound in the distance, and a ghost came out of the tomb with a terrifying appearance. Xu facilitated hiding behind a tree, holding a pole in self-defense. The ghost came to the jar, danced with joy, opened the lid and started drinking. After drinking a jar, I have to open another jar. Just halfway through, the ghost collapsed to the ground. Xu Fang hated it so much that he looked at the ghost, as if he had nothing else to do, so he suddenly hit him with the pole, as if he was hit in the air. He beat him repeatedly, and the ghost gradually slackened and fell to the ground, turning into a cloud of smoke. Xu Fang was afraid that the ghost would change, so he beat him more than a hundred times. The thick smoke spreads flat on the ground and gradually spreads out, as light as ink, and like a veil, the more it spreads, the thinner it finally disappears, probably disappeared. I think ghosts are leftover qi of people, and qi disappears little by little, so in Zuozhuan, it is said that the new ghosts are big and the old ghosts are small. There are people who have seen ghosts in the world, but I haven't heard of anyone who has seen ghosts from ancient Taihao and before the Yellow Emperor. That's because they have disappeared. Wine disperses qi, so the medicines used by physicians for blood circulation, sweating, depression, and cold are all accompanied by wine. This ghost only had a little bit of qi, but he drank a jar full of wine, the yang qi was bubbling, and the yin qi was forced, so it was inevitable that he would disappear. He was wiped out by wine, not by a pole. Hearing this incident, an alcoholic said: "Ghosts are good at changing, and because of drinking, they get drunk and get beaten. People were originally afraid of ghosts, but when they drink, they are restrained. Those who are addicted to alcohol should remember Stay with it." A drinker said: "Although Wei has no body, he has perceptions, and he is not free from emotions. Now he is drunk and lying down, and he has disappeared. Its back to the truth. The purpose of wine cant be more profound than this. Buddhism regards Nirvana as the ultimate bliss, and those who are busy with their livelihood cannot understand it. That's what it means.
