Mr. Li'an also said: There is a friend named Nie who went to the depths of Xishan to visit the grave and came back. Fearing tigers, I stumbled and tried my best to hurry. Seeing a broken temple on the mountainside, I hurried in. At this time it was already dark, and someone in the corner said, "This is not a human environment, the donor can leave quickly." He thought it was a monk, so he asked, "Why is the master sitting here in the dark?" Answer: "The Buddhist school does not If you lie, you are a hanged ghost yourself, and I am waiting for a replacement here. Nie was afraid of the battle, and after a while he said, "It is better to die from a ghost than to die from a tiger. I am staying with my master." The ghost said: "It's okay if you don't go. But the underworld and the yang world are not the same way. You can't bear the invasion of the bright qi, and I can't bear the scorching of the yang qi, so there is no peace. Each occupies a corner, and don't get close to each other." Nie asked from a distance. For the sake of substitution. The ghost said: "God loves life and doesn't want people to harm their own lives. Like the integrity of a loyal minister, the preservation of chastity by a martyr, although this is an accidental death, it is no different from dying at the end of one's life, and there is no need to wait for a replacement. Those who are embarrassed by the situation and have no way to survive, sympathize with him as a last resort and hand over to reincarnation, still check and calculate his life, accept retribution according to good and evil, and do not have to wait for a replacement. If there is a ray of hope to survive, Or because of a small resentment, can not bear it, or use it to inflict others, indulge his evil spirit, and hang him recklessly, then greatly violates the heart of the birth of all things in heaven and earth, so he must be replaced to express punishment. Therefore, imprisoned After that, I was stagnant and lingered for a hundred years." Asked, "Isn't there a substitute for tempting people?" The ghost said, "I can't bear it. When people hang themselves and die for justice, their souls rise from the top of their heads. His death was quick. For those who died of anger and jealousy, the soul descended from the heart, and his death was slow. When there was no breath, every bloodline surged up, and every inch of his skin seemed to be split, and the pain was like a knife being shattered. It took more than ten minutes to separate the form from the spirit. Thinking of such pain, seeing the hanged man trying to stop him, let him turn back quickly and be willing to seduce him Is he?" Nie said, "Master has such thoughts, and naturally he must ascend to heaven." The ghost said, "I don't dare to look forward to this umbrella. I just recite Buddha wholeheartedly and try to repent." Speak, watch carefully, and see nothing. Later, every time Nie went to the grave, he would always bring food paper money to pay homage to him, and there was always a whirlwind around him. One year, the whirlwind did not come, and it was expected that he had been freed from the situation of a ghost because of a good thought.
Wang Banxian once visited his fox friend. The fox friend smiled and welcomed him: "You had a dream last night, and when you arrived at Fan's house, you were so happy." Fan Zhu was a famous prostitute in the city. Wang Banxian recalled that she had this dream, and asked the fox friend how she knew it. Fox friend said: . People are born with yang qi, and yang qi is good to rise, and it often appears on the top of the head. When sleeping, the spirit is concentrated in the heart, and the aura and the yang reflect each other like a mirror reflecting a shadow. Dreams are born from the heart, and the shadows are displayed in the yang energy. All kinds of phenomena such as coming and going, disappearing, etc., can suddenly change into the shape of a little human being one or two inches tall, like pictures, dramas, and insects. Creepy. Even the unspeakable secrets of the heart will be revealed in all forms, ghosts and gods can see clearly, and the psychic in the fox can see it, but they can't hear the voice of the villain. I passed by Jun's house by chance last night and happened to watch Jun's beautiful dream. "Fox friend said again:" The good and evil in the heart are also expressed in the yang qi. When a good thought arises, a ray of fire shoots out of the yang qi; If there is still a trace of light on the top of the thick smoke, it means that the person is in the animal realm; if there is not even a trace of light, it means that this person is in the mud plow hell. "Wang Banxian asked:" The wicked smoke covered his head, how could Mengying appear? "Fox friend said:" The human heart is originally kind, but it is covered by evil thoughts. When you sleep without a single thought, the conscience returns to its original appearance, and the yang energy remains bright. Even when the wicked wake up from sleep, the evil thoughts have not yet arisen, and the light still exists. The more evil thoughts arise, the darker it becomes, and when all evil thoughts arise, all darkness becomes darker. If you dont read books, you dont know the reason, but you can ask the scholars. Menciuss night qi refers to this. "Wang Banxian said in a panic:" The observation of ghosts and gods has reached the dream of a man. "
Lei Sheng came out of the ground. I had seen it before in Baiheling, Fujian. Baihe Ridge is 50 miles high. Looking down on the ridge on a cloudy and rainy day, the thick clouds only reach halfway up the mountain. A wisp of air came out of the thick cloud and rushed straight up. There was a sudden burst of fire from the tail of the wisp of air, followed by a loud bang, which was completely similar to an artillery piece. As for the thunder that strikes things, it comes down from the sky. In the summer of the third year of Qianlongs reign, my cousin Maoyuan and I lived and studied on the third floor of Cui Zhuang. Open the window and look around, you can see the scenery within a few miles. It was a thunderstorm at that time, and when I saw a man coming from the south, about half a mile away from Cui Zhuang, he suddenly knelt on the ground. Immediately, the clouds fell and covered him, and he couldn't see anything. Then a sound of thunder was heard, and the fire seemed to be near, and the clouds and mist had subsided. After a while, it was rumored that Li Shanren of Gaochuan was killed by thunder. I followed people to see Li Shanren, who was charred all over, kneeling with his hands upright, and looking up at the sky. There are red characters on his back, not small seal script, not big seal script, not cursive script, official script, the dots and dashes of the characters are intertwined, and it is impossible to recognize a few characters. Li Shanren ate fast and worshipped Buddha, and he did nothing good or bad. I don't know if he was struck by lightning as a retribution from a previous life, or if he did something bad and concealed it. His nephew Li Shiqin said: "When he woke up this morning, he had to go to Cui Zhuang. In fact, he had nothing to do. He came in the rain and was struck by lightning." Push him to come, let people see him.
When I was serving in the Ministry of War, an official was so skinny that he was seduced by a fox. He went to ask Zhang Zhenren to use Fu Zhenzhi, and suddenly heard someone say from the eaves: "As an official, you have violated the laws of heaven to extract money, and you should obey the law. I received your life-saving grace in my previous life, so I used beauty to seduce you and absorb you. The essence of the venereal disease will make you suffer from venereal diseases and die. Now that I have been driven away, it means that your sins are too serious and irreparable. But you should also strive to do good things, and there is a possibility of recovery. The officials illness has since recovered. , but he still did not repent, and was later executed for embezzling seals and collecting horse tax. The priest knew about this, and later told me.
The former mother, Mrs. Zhang Tai, had a maid named Xiu Luan. Once Yue Ye sat on the front steps of the hall and called her, and there was an embroidered luan running out of the east and west corridors. The shape of the clothes was the same, so that the right placket was turned upside down, and the left sleeve was half rolled up. Mrs. Zhang was so shocked that she almost fell. Looking at it again, there is only one of them, and I ask her if it is from the West Corridor. He asked again, "Did you see the people in the east corridor?" He said, "I didn't see it." This happened in July. By November, Mrs. Zhang Tai died. Probably the good fortune has come to an end, so the demon and charm dare to show up.
The nun of the Cangzhou Flower Arrangement Temple, whose surname is Dong. One day, on the birthday of the temple god, the nun prepared the offerings, but suddenly felt tired, so she leaned on the table and fell asleep for a while. In a trance, she dreamed that the master said to her: "If you don't make an offering, I won't go hungry; even if you make an offering, I won't be so full. Im going to starve to death. Stop making offerings and give them food. The merit is ten times better than offering me. The nun woke up suddenly, opened the door and saw that there were many hungry refugees outside the temple. Since then, after making offerings to gods every year, she has given offerings to beggars, saying that this is the will of the Bodhisattva.
Mrs. Xiantai said that there was a bearer in Cangzhou, Tian, whose mother was dying of bulging. He heard that a doctor in Jinghe Town had a miracle medicine, but it was more than a hundred miles away. He ran away as soon as it was dawn, and ran back in the evening, exhausted. But that night, the Weihe River swelled so much that the boat did not dare to cross it. Tian Mou looked up to the sky and cried, tears streaming down his face. Although everyone felt sorry for him, there was nothing he could do. Suddenly a boatman untied the rope and greeted: "If there is still a way of heaven, this person will not drown. Come, I will cross you." to the east coast. Everyone watching put their hands together and recited: "Amitabha Buddha." My late father Yao Angong said, "The piety of this boatman's faith surpasses that of Confucian scholars."
Yuewei Caotang Notes Volume 4 Luanyang Xiaoxia Record 4
The people of Crouching Tiger supported Tian Baiyan's house, and everyone burned incense and prayed. Only one mad young man sat leaning on the table and said, "I have become proficient in walking the rivers and lakes, but it's just to tease the audience, how can there be a true fairy who listens to it every day? People call." Immediately, a poem by Ji was placed on the altar, and the poem wrote: "The mouth can't stop crying in shock, Zhangtai looks back at Liu Qiqi. When the flowers bloom, the bowels are empty, and the clouds disappear without a trace, and the dream is also lost. Xiao Li played Jin Quxu stealthily, half-heartedly laughing and persuading jade things. The pipa still seems to be doing something to ask Xunyang to estimate the wife of a guest." Kuangsheng was shocked when he saw it, and couldn't help but bow his knees and bow down. Because the poem was secretly sent by him to a former prostitute a few days ago, and it was unedited. Crouching Tiger Shanren again sent the verdict: "Fortunately, this poem was not sent. If it is sent, the second romantic son will come out. Since this woman has abandoned the dark and turned to the light, you are seducing the women of a good family by doing this. Bai Juyi just happened to write a love poem to express his grief, but you are real. Too many romantic stories are the root of hell. Yesterday, I saw the record book of the underworld official by chance, so I copied it down. Don't blame me for saying a few more words, sir." Kuang Sheng stood by the case, his face pale. He died more than a year later. The only person I've ever seen is this one who doesn't talk about good or bad luck, but likes to persuade people to correct their mistakes. He is almost an honest and upright gentleman among ghosts. My late father, Yao Angong, always hated chaotic sacrifices. Only when he met such a god, he would bow respectfully and say, "With such strict rules, even ghosts are worthy of respect."
When Yao Angong was not in the first place, he met someone who helped him and asked him if he was famous. He said, "You have a long way to go." He also asked what year Dengdi was supposed to be in, and he said, "You have to wait for ten thousand years to become the first." Yao Angong thought that he was talking about or should get in from another way. It was not until the emperor's birthday in the year of Guisi that Encoreddi came to realize the saying of ten thousand years. Later, the official resided in the prefect of Yao'an Prefecture in Yunnan, and asked to go home to support his parents and return, but he did not serve any more. Even the promise of a thousand miles ahead has come true. Most of the illusion techniques are quick and dexterous, and there is only one thing to do. It is indeed dependent on it, but it is only one of the ghosts who can play with brush and ink. The so-called gods and immortals are, of course, false pretences, even if they claim to be of a certain generation and someone, when asked about the poets in my collection, most of them said that they were forgotten for a long time and could not answer. Those who are good at writing will write neatly, if they are good at poetry, they will be skillful in poetry, and if they are not good at writing poetry or writing at all, they will be able to write them very slowly. I am a little bit good at poetry but not good at writing, my cousin Tanju is good at writing but not good at poetry. When I was supporting, my poems were swift and scribbled; when I lived peacefully and supporting, my writing was clean and tidy, but the poetry was shallow and rough. In fact, I didn't pay attention to living in peace with me, and it was probably because of the spirit of others that we were able to exercise. It is usually said that ghosts are not self-conscious, but they are spiritual when they treat people. The yarrow tortoises used to occupy, are originally withered grass and decayed carapace, and being able to know good and bad is also a kind of spirit.
The ancestors lived on the east bank of the Wei River, and there was a building in the family built beside the river, named "Dufan". The water on the Dufan Building faces west, and the lower door of the building faces east, leading to a leisure courtyard, which is not connected to the upper floor. There used to be a servant named Shi Jinjie. His daughter-in-law hanged and died in the leisure courtyard. Therefore, no one lived there for a long time, and it became a leisure courtyard. There was a boy and a maid who did not know that someone in the Xianyuan had been hanged to death, and went to the Xianyuan for a tryst in the middle of the night. They were lingering inside the door, when they heard noises outside the door, it seemed that someone was walking, and they did not dare to move because they were afraid of being discovered. Peeking out from the gap in the door, I saw a hanged ghost walking on the doorstep, sighing at Yue. The two of them were so frightened that they froze in the door and did not dare to go out. The door was occupied by two people, and ghosts did not dare to enter, and the stalemate lasted for a long time. Suddenly, a dog found the ghost and barked wildly, and the group of dogs also gathered to bark. The family thought that there were thieves, and Ming Deng, armed with weapons, rushed into the leisure courtyard. As a result, the ghost disappeared, but the child maid's adultery was completely exposed. The maid was so ashamed that she couldn't help herself, and at night she went to the idle courtyard to hang herself. People found her and rescued her. But after she woke up, she sneaked into the Xianyuan to hang herself again, going back and forth twice. Later, the handmaiden was handed over to her parents, and she no longer hanged herself. Therefore, people realized that it was not that the ghosts dared not enter the house, but that they wanted to expose the good feelings of the two girls and force the girls to hang themselves in shame, in order to achieve the purpose of replacing themselves. My grandmother said: "This ghost woman was very insidious and cunning in her life, and she will be like this after death. She should be in the ghost realm." Mrs. Xian Tai said: "If this maid doesn't do this kind of thing, where will the ghost take advantage of the opportunity? What about entering? So the guilt of this matter cannot be blamed on the ghost.
When Mr. Xin Tongfu was appointed magistrate of Yiyang, an old man handed over a letter and said: "Yesterday, I was staying outside the Dongcheng Gate. I saw five or six hanged ghosts coming in through the door. I'm afraid they are looking for a substitute. Please inform the people that it is not appropriate to abuse servants and concubines. Don't chase down debts, give each other everything, don't fight, then the ghost will have no choice." Xin Tongfu was furious and beat the old man away. The old man did not complain, he walked down the steps, stroked his knees and said, "Unfortunately, these five or six lives cannot be saved." A few days later, it was reported that four people in the city had hanged. Xin Tongfu was shocked and hurriedly called the old man to ask questions. The old man said, "I've been confused for a few days, and I can't remember anything. Only today did I find out that I had submitted this complaint. Could it be that I offended the ghosts and gods and asked me to be beaten?" So every family took precautions, and sure enough, two people were saved by hanging: one was a woman who was tortured by her mother-in-law and hanged; her mother-in-law deeply regretted it. One was hanging for debt; the creditor immediately burned the bond. So neither of them died. It can be seen that although the fate has been doomed in advance, if you can do your best to fight for it, you will definitely be able to save one-tenth of it. It is also known that human life is at stake, and although the ghosts and gods knew beforehand that so-and-so should die, if there is a glimmer of hope, they will definitely turn to manpower to help them. When the breath is up, just like the wind and snow in the severe winter, the earth has to be a cold scene. As for wearing a leather jacket and blocking the doors and windows to avoid the wind and snow, it is up to people to find a way, God does not forbid it.
Xianxian Shi did not know what it was called. He is informal and open-minded and upright, disdainful of petty people. Once he came back from the casino and saw a villager, husband and wife hug each other and cry. A neighbor of the villagers said: "Because he owed a debt to Haoqiang, he sold his wife to pay it back. The husband and wife have a good relationship, and the child was not weaned, so they left it like this, so it was very sad." Shi asked how much he owed. Debt, the neighbor said 30 taels of silver, Shi asked his wife how much he sold it, the neighbor said that he sold 50 taels of silver to give her a concubine, and Shi asked if it could be redeemed. The neighbor said, "The deed of sale has just been written, and the money has not been paid yet, so why can't it be redeemed?" Shi immediately handed over the seventy taels of silver he had just won from the casino to the villagers, saying, "Thirty taels will pay him the debt, forty taels will be repaid to the villagers. Two to make a living, dont sell your wife. The villagers and their husbands were so grateful, they killed the chicken and let him drink until the three rounds. The villager took the child out and winked at his wife, implying that she would accompany Shi to sleep in return. The wife nodded, and then she was full of rhetoric, which was very indecent. Shi said solemnly: "Shi has been a robber for half of his life and an arresting officer for half his life. He may have killed people without blinking an eye. If you want to take advantage of others' danger and rape other women, I, Shi, will never do it." Walk away without saying a word. Half a month later, Shi Mou's village caught fire at night. At that time, the autumn harvest had just ended, and there were firewood, thatch, and stalks in front of and behind every house. Shi Mouxin couldn't think of going out of the house, and could only sit with his wife and children waiting to die. In a trance, I heard a distant shout from the house: "Dongyue Shen has a Huo Jiu document coming, Shi Mou's family will be removed to avoid death!" Then there was a bang, and half of the back wall collapsed. Shi Mou held his wife in his left hand and his son in his right hand, and jumped out, as if someone was pushing him out behind him. After the fire was extinguished, the whole village burned nine people to death. The neighbors clapped their hands together to bless him and said, "Yesterday, I laughed at you for being stupid. I don't want to. Seventy taels of silver bought three lives." Six-tenths of the power of color.
When Yao Angong was an official in the Ministry of Punishment, there were seven people outside Deshengmen who robbed together. Five were arrested, but only Wang Wu and Jin Daya were not arrested. Wang Wu fled to the county, and the road was blocked by a deep ditch. There was only a small bridge that one person could pass through. There was a sturdy cow who was lying on the road with an angry stare. When he got close to it, he tried his best to fight back. He had to retreat to find another way. Jin Daya fled to the Qinghe River. On the north side of the bridge, a shepherd boy drove two cows over and threw him into the mud. Jin became angry and fought. Qinghe was close to the capital, and was recognized and told the ri chief, who tied him up and sent him to the official. Both of them are Hui people, and they both slaughtered cattle for their business, but both were exposed because of the cattle. Isn't it tragic and cruel to slaughter, even the beasts have hatred and viciousness on which to retaliate by their kindred! Otherwise, it is a common occurrence in business affairs to be bumped over by an ox; who would make it happen if the bridge was blocked for no reason!
Song Mengquan said: "Mr. Sun Eshan, was sick in Gaoyou's boat. Suddenly I felt as if I was walking ashore, and I felt very relaxed and comfortable. After a while, someone led him forward, and he dazedly forgot why he was walking forward, and didn't ask much. Then I came to a family with a luxurious door and a clean courtyard. Gradually walking into the inner room, I saw a young woman giving birth. He wanted to retreat, but was slapped from behind by the person who led him, and he fell into a coma. When he woke up after a long time, he found that he had shrunk in size and was hiding in the swaddling clothes. He knew in his heart that he had been reincarnated, and there was nothing he could do. As soon as he wanted to speak, he felt that the cold air was creeping in through the door, and he couldn't speak. He looked around the room, and the furniture, utensils, couplets and paintings in the room were very clear. On the third day, the maid took him to take a bath and fell to the ground, and he lost consciousness again. When he woke up, he was still on a sick ship. The family said that he had been out of breath for three days, but because his limbs were soft and his heart was still warm, he did not dare to enter the coffin. Mr. Sun Eshan hurriedly asked for a piece of paper, wrote down what he had seen and heard, and sent someone along the route he took to go to the house where he had been reincarnated, telling the master not to beat the maidservant with a slap. Then, he slowly explained what happened to his family. He was completely cured that day, so he went to the house where he had been reincarnated in person, and when he saw the maid and others, it was like old acquaintances. The owner of the house was old and childless, and he sighed with Mr. Sun Eshan, saying it was strange. In recent years, Tongzheng Mengjianxi has also had a similar incident, and also remembered to go to the road and the birth portal. I went to visit afterwards, and sure enough, the family died immediately after giving birth that day. Not long ago in Zhilu, Tuge Xue Shiquan gave a detailed account of his situation, which is probably similar to Mr. Asan's situation. The only difference is that Mr. Asan remembers the situation when he went to reincarnation, but does not remember the situation when he returned; Meng Jianxi is very clear about going back and forth, and he met his deceased wife on the way. When he got home and entered the room, he saw his wife and daughter together sit. The Buddhist theory of reincarnation is something that Confucianism avoids talking about. In reality, the reincarnation of the earth often happens, and there is nothing wrong with the cause and effect. It's just that the two gentlemen, Eshan and Jianxi, temporarily entered reincarnation, and then returned to their original bodies. For no reason, such a bubble of reincarnation appeared. It cannot be explained according to the usual Buddhist theory of reincarnation. The sage lives and doesn't matter", which can be regarded as a suspicion for the time being and will not be investigated for the time being.
The distant uncle Can Chengong said that there was once a county magistrate who could not make a judgment on a murder case, and the delay caused more and more people to be implicated. So he went to the Temple of the City God to ask God for a dream. He dreamed that God brought a ghost, and the ghost wore a small-mouthed and pot-bellied magnetic jar. There were more than ten bamboos planted in the jar, which were green and lovely. After waking up, he found a person with the surname Zhu in the case. Zhu Zhu had the same pronunciation and thought that the murderer must be him. However, after exhausting torture and interrogation, no evidence was found. When he found a person with the surname Jie in the case, he thought to himself: Bamboo has a Jie, the murderer must be him. So they exhausted the torture again, but no trial came to an end. And these two people were tried to die, and they survived anyway. There was no other way, so he reported it as a suspected case and asked to hunt down the murderer. In the end, the killer was never caught. Difficult cases, such as humbly researching the trial, may be able to get the military information. Asking God to speak in a dream is just to frighten the foolish people and trick them into revealing the truth. If the trance scene in the dream is used as the basis for the verdict, it is not good. Since ancient times, the matter of seeking a dream to decide a case, I think it is all far-fetched after the fact.
