Liang Zongyi's "Jing Chu Years Chronicles":

Looking at the sun in the first month, make minced beans to worship the door. First, the willow branch is inserted into the door, and the branch is pointed to, and the wine and bean porridge are eaten and sacrificed. On the eve of the greeting, the god of Yingzigu is divined.

This is not only a superstition in Jingchu, but also has become a local festival. Su Shi had a new friend in Huangzhou, Pan Binglai, told him: There is a local overseas Chinese family surnamed Guo, and the most effective way to help the gods is to help, and Su Shi is still on the way to Huang on the fifteenth day of the first month of this year, God has revealed the news and said: "Su Gong is coming." On the fifteenth day of the first month of the following year, Su Shi asked Pan Bing to accompany him to visit Guo's house. The god of the altar, named He Mei, the word Liqing, a native of Laiyang, was born as the concubine of Li Jing of Shouyang, and was assassinated in the toilet by the eldest woman on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month. Answer all questions, such as ringing Si Ying. She actually knew that Su Shi was already here, and said: Please stay for a while, she will write poems to entertain her. Dozens of poems were written in an instant, not only agile, but also full of wonderful ideas, mixed with laughter. Su Shi asked: "If you want to be a citizen of Huangzhou, what can you do?"”

God wrote a quatrain on the powder plate: "The court wants to force the collection, and is willing to make the virtuous marquis sing here."Just wait to be repaired into a cloud road to stabilize, and the emperor's book will be a piece of paper. ”

Asked again: "I want to buy a Zhuangzi, I don't know how?"”

God replied, "The scholar has made a name for himself, and he can't put anything in trouble." ”

Zigu God is also very famous, after singing and dancing, he bowed to him again: "The name of the official document is in the world, why not let the world know that there is a concubine?"”

Su Shi really made "The Story of Zigu Shen" for her.

Another time, he went to Wang Ruogu's house, to see the broom and put on the clothes of the aunt, self-proclaimed the god Li Quan, with the chopsticks as the pen, put the pen in the mouth, and write the seal. Although the words are unreadable, Su Shi still praised him for his "wonderful gestures" for "The Story of the Heavenly Seal".

A few days after Guo's view, Su Shi went to Qiting to visit Chen Yu, and had to spend the night on the way, but stayed in Tuanfeng Town, and dreamed of a monk who came with a broken face and bleeding, as if he had something to say, but he didn't say it. Wake up, unknown signs. Arrived at Qiting, told Chen Yu about this night dream, and the next day he will enter the mountain, halfway to see a temple, there is an ancient plastic arhat statue, the appearance is very great, but the face is damaged. Su Shi had never thought of last night's dream, and Chen Yu had already realized first: "Isn't this the monk you dreamed of?"Su Shi later transported this Arhat back to Huangzhou, and asked the abbot monk Jilian of Anguo Temple to redecorate it, the left dragon and the right tiger, and it was the statue of the fifth Venerable, which was enshrined in Anguo Temple.

In addition, if you eat Shizhi on the ancient well in a dream, you still remember that it tastes like chicken crisp, but it is sweeter than chicken crisp;The dream black fat official asked him to make "Sacrificial Spring Cow Text";Dream a beauty gave him a group of tea cooked in snow water to drink, in order to compose palindrome poems;Dreaming of the West Lake, etc., each of them chanted and hovered low.

Dreams and superstitions, as understood by modern people, are subconscious activities produced by mental reflexes. Dreams are a compensation for the shortcomings of real life, while superstitious behaviors have the wonderful effect of filling the emptiness within the mind. Everyone secretly has their own dreams, dreams have incredible power, and people get all their wishes fulfilled in dreams that are free from reality and outside of reality. Superstition and supernatural not only make the wandering mind of the ownerless, but also get the sustenance. The miraculous encounters of people are often just the scenes produced by their own painful experiences mixed with passionate imagination in a trance. Su Shi is isolated, hesitant, and has many strange and dreamy adventures, which is a reflection of his empty soul and enthusiasm.
