Sun Guoting's "Book Book"

Fu (fú) has been a good calligrapher since ancient times. In the Han and Wei dynasties, there were Zhong and Zhang Zhijue, and in the late Jin Dynasty, they were called the two kings.

Wang Xizhi said: "After searching for famous books, Zhong and Zhang Xin are unparalleled, and the rest are not worth mentioning." It can be said that Zhong and Zhang Yun disappeared (mò, died), and Xi and Xian succeeded them. He also said: "My book is compared to Zhong and Zhang. Zhong should resist the movement (háng), or it can be said to be over the top; Zhang Cao should be like a wild goose (háng). However, Zhang is very skilled, and the water in the pond is full of ink. I would like to make others hesitate like this. , I may not thank you." This is the intention of recommending Zhang Maizhong. Examining his expertise, although the results were not as good as the previous rules; he was able to master all aspects, so he was not worried about the immediate matter.

Regarding people who were good at calligraphy since ancient times, during the Han and Wei dynasties, there were Zhong Yao (you) and Zhang Zhi who had outstanding calligraphy skills. At the end of the Dynasty, Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi produced exquisite ink paintings. Wang Xizhi said: "I have recently studied the calligraphy of famous masters. Zhong Yao and Zhang Zhi are indeed outstanding, and the rest are not worthy of appreciation." It can be said that after the death of Zhong Yao and Zhang Zhi, Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi succeeded them. Wang Xizhi also said: "Compared with Zhong Yao and Zhang Zhi, my calligraphy is on par with Zhong Yao, or slightly better than him. Zhang Zhi's cursive calligraphy can be ranked with him; because Zhang Zhi is very proficient in studying and learning in Linchi. Books can dye the pond water black. If I work hard and study hard like him, I may not be able to catch up with him." This is the meaning of recommending Zhang Zhi and thinking that he is better than Zhong Yao. Examining the calligraphy expertise of Wang Xizhi and his son, although they have not yet fully realized the rules of their predecessors, they are able to master various calligraphy styles and are worthy of the cause of calligraphy.

A commentator said: "The four sages among them are outstanding in ancient and modern times; but the present is not as good as the ancient, and the ancient quality is the present beauty (yán)." Although the deed (qì) is written in writing, it is suitable for recording words; but when Chunxi (chúnlí) is moved, the quality and writing change three times, and the evolution is rapid, the physics is always the same. In ancient times, noble people were not obedient, but now they have different disadvantages. The so-called "gentle and gentle, then a gentleman." Why bother to carve the palace at the acupoint and turn the jade chariot (lù) into the vertebra (chuí) wheel!

? It is also said: "Zijing is not as good as Yi Shao, and Yi Shao is not as good as Zhong and Zhang." The intended person thinks that he can evaluate his outline and discipline, but does not specify his beginnings and endings. Moreover, Yuanchang specialized in official script, and Baiying was especially good at cursive script. They have two beauties, and they are both elegant and short. If you draft the grass, you will be left with the true, and if you compare it with the true, the grass will be longer (cháng). Although the specialized work is small and inferior, but the broad and involved are many excellent;

Calligraphy commentators said: "These four talented calligraphy masters can be said to be unique in ancient and modern times. But modern people (the two kings) are not as good as The calligraphy style of the ancients (Zhong, Zhang) was simple, while the calligraphy style of today is beautiful." However, the simple style has emerged with the development of the times, and the beautiful style has also changed with the changes in the world. Although writing was originally created to record language, with the development of the times, calligraphy style will continue to change, from mellow to light, from simple to gorgeous; inheriting the former and innovating is the norm in the development of all things. The most valuable thing about calligraphy is that it can inherit the traditions of the past without deviating from the trend of the times; it can pursue today's fashion without being confused with other people's bad customs. The so-called "the combination of literary talent and simplicity is the elegant demeanor". Why idle the gorgeous palaces to live in the caves of the ancients, abandon the exquisite treasure chariots and ride primitive ox-carts?

The commentator also said: "The reason why Xianzhi's calligraphy is not as good as Xi's is just like Xizhi's is not as good as Zhong Yao's and Zhang Zhi's." I think this has commented on the key point of the problem, but it has not yet been able to Explain in detail the origin and end of it. Zhong Yao specializes in regular script, and Zhang Zhi is proficient in cursive script. Wang Xizhi is good at both. Compared with Zhang Zhi's cursive style king, he is also good at regular script, and Zhong Yao's regular script king is better at cursive style. Although his specialization is slightly less, Wang Xizhi is able to cover a wide range of topics and learn from many talents. Overall, each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

Xie Ansu was good at rulers (牍), but he ignored the book of Jingzi. Zi Jing tried to write a good book for him, saying that it must be recorded, and he always answered questions and answered them, which made him hate him very much. An Chang asked Jing: "How can Qing Shu be like the right army?" He replied: "So (Gu) should win." An Yun: "The theory of things is different." Zijing replied: "The people at that time knew that (nǎ) ! "Jing Jiquan used this word to explain what he had learned, and calling himself Shengfu is not an exaggeration! Moreover, when he established his reputation and made a name for himself, his talents and qualifications were evident, and he could not enter the house of Shengmu. Although Zijing Zhihaohan and Shao Youjun's writings and letters were restored to the regular rules, they may not be able to conquer Jiqiu. The situation is to rely on gods and deities, to worship the family model in shame, and to achieve learning through this, who (shú) is more likely to face the wall! When Hou Xi went to the capital, he wrote on the wall before leaving. Zi Jingmi erased it and changed the writing to another place. His private behavior was not evil (è). When Xizhi saw him again, he sighed and said, "I was really drunk when I left!" This means that if you know that Yi Shao is better than Zhong and Zhang, you will know how to distinguish between masters and masters; if you respect him less than Yi Shao, you will have no confusion (or doubt).

In his academic years, Yu Zhi paid close attention to calligraphy, tasted Zhong, and Zhang Zhiyu Lie. He has the art of being obedient to the trees and the ambition to be near the pond.

Observe the difference in the husband’s dangling needle, the flying thunder and falling stone (strange), the frightening appearance of the flying beast (posture), the frightened state of the luan (luán) dancing with the snake, and the slumping peak on the cliff. The power of the (peak) is in a gaunt shape when faced with danger; it may be as heavy as a collapsing cloud, or as light as a cicada's wing; when it is guided, the spring will flow, and when it is stopped, the mountain will be safe; it is as slender as the first moon emerging from the cliff (end) of the sky, falling and falling. Just like the stars in the rivers and rivers; the wonders of nature cannot be achieved by force; faith can be said to be both wise and skillful; the mind and hands are smooth; the pen does not move in vain, and there must be a reason for it. In one painting, it changes to the peak (miǎo); within a point, the difference (nǜ, 衄) falls in the hao (hao) awn.

Kang Yun accumulated his stippling to form his characters. I once looked down at the ruler (stubble) and studied the Yin. I quoted Ban Chao as words and borrowed items from the book and became complacent. I let the pen be the body and gathered the ink to form the shape. My mind was faint and I was confused about how to imitate the recipe, and my hands were confused about the principles of movement. It would be absurd to seek beauty and beauty!

However, when a gentleman establishes himself, he must cultivate his roots. Yang Xiong said that if a strong man does not follow the path of poetry and poetry, then he will become addicted to thinking about how powerful he is, and he will become a master of calligraphy! The husband Qian Shen plays Yi (playing chess), which is still the name of sitting in hiding; he enjoys (lè) his ambition to fish, and he still has the interest of physical movement and hiding. 讵(jù) is like the meritorious service of ritual and music, wonderfully imitating gods, just like shānzhí(shānzhí), which is incompatible with the craftsman's furnace. A man who is fond of the strange and admirable can play with the postures in many ways; a man who knows the subtleties and subtleties can obtain the mysteries of movement. The one who writes the book ignores its dross, and the one who learns and reviews it picks up the essence, who consolidates the principles and principles, and who believes in the virtuous and the wise and is good at the same time. How can it be in vain to save the essence and reward it!

The scholars of the Eastern Jin Dynasty cultivated each other (cuì). As for the clans of Wang and Xie, and the Lun of Xi and Yu, even if they are not as magical as their gods, their saltiness also adds to their flavor. As time goes by, the path becomes weaker and weaker. When Fang Fu heard the doubts, he expressed doubts, and he was at the end of his journey. He was blocked from the past and the present, and there was no question. There was a meeting, and the silence (jiān) and the secret (mì, secret) were deep. This leaves scholars at a loss, unable to understand the essentials, only seeing the beauty of success, but not understanding the reasons for it.

Or it may be that it has been distributed over the years, but it is still far away from the rules. It is not understood, and it will be lost in practice. If the order is thin (bó) to explain the cursive script and the official law is roughly passed down, it will be easy to indulge in the solid and self-defeating (hé) to pass the rules. Knowing that the heart and hand will return, it seems that they have the same origin but are of different schools; the technique of switching is like a tree divided into strips? It is important to make changes at the right time, and calligraphy is the most important; the title of Fangwen (fú, piece, plaque) is really the first. If the grass is not true, it is only due to concentration; if the true grass is not clear, it is not a calligraphy. The true uses dot painting as the form and quality, so that it can be transformed into emotion; the grass uses dot painting as the emotion, so that it can be transformed into form and quality. The grass is good at turning, but it can't form words; if it's really bad, it can still be written. Although they are different from each other, they are generally related to each other. Therefore, it is also adjacent to the two seal scripts, which are bent over eight points, including chapters, and the words are white. If Hao (hao) is not aware of it, then Hu and Yue will be very different.

To the extent that Zhong Yao (yóu) is Li Qi (Qi), Zhang Zhi is Cao Sheng, this is the integration of specialization, and it is unparalleled. Boying is not honest, but his stippling is messy; Yuan Chang is not rough, (but) he makes the painting vertical and horizontal. Since then, those who cannot be good at both have fallen short and are not experts. Although seal script, official script, cursive script, and seal script are all used in various ways, each one has its own advantages and disadvantages. The seal script is graceful and clear, the official script is precise and dense, the cursive script is flowing and smooth, and the rules and regulations are checked and convenient. Then cool it with wind spirit, warm it with beauty, drum it with dry energy, and harmonize it with leisurely elegance. Therefore, it is possible to capture their emotions, shape their sorrows and joys, and examine the special knots of dryness and dampness, which will remain the same through the ages. Sigh, those who don’t enter its door and peek into its secrets are the same!

Another time to write, some are obedient and some are in harmony. If they are in harmony, they will be charming (mèi), and if they are obedient, they will be carved (diāo, withering) and sparse. Briefly speaking of the reasons, there are five reasons for each: the first combination is the pleasure of the mind and the leisurely work; the second combination is the feeling of benefit and knowledge; the third combination is the harmonious and moist time; the paper and ink are mixed, the fourth combination; Occasionally want to write, Wuhe is also. The heart is quick and the body is left behind, which is the first bad thing; the mind is bent against the situation, the second bad thing is; the wind is dry and the sun is burning, the third bad thing is; the paper and ink are not in harmony, the fourth bad thing is; the feelings are lazy and the hands are lán, the fifth good thing is. When they are in harmony, the advantages and disadvantages differ from each other. It is better to have the right tool at the right time, and it is better to have the right tool than to have the right intention. If the five darlings are in harmony, the thoughts will be suppressed and the hands will be blocked; if the five combinations are perfect, the spirit will be integrated and the writing will be smooth. Smooth, no discomfort, confused and helpless.

A benevolent person is so proud that he forgets to speak, and seldom expresses his important points; a scholar hopes to describe something wonderfully, but his description is still sparse. He did his work in vain and failed to fulfill his purpose. Those who do not criticize mediocrity, who always seek to make things clear, and who want to carry forward the rules of the past and guide the knowledge of the future, get rid of complexity and excess, and see the traces to clarify their minds.

There are seven lines in the "Brush Formation Picture" from the dynasty. There are three hands holding the pen in the middle picture. Suddenly, it was spread from north to south, and it was suspected that it was made by the right army. Although the authenticity is not clear, it can still enlighten children. Since it is stored in common customs, it is not cataloged. As for the reviews of various schools of thought, they are mostly about glitz and glamour. They are all about external descriptions of their shapes and internal confusion about their principles. What I have written now is of no use. If it is the high reputation of the teacher and the official, it will only show the history; the order of Handan Chun will be empty and sealed. Since the time of Cui and Du, Xiao and Sheep have passed away, and the ancestors have worshiped Mian far away, and the famous names have multiplied. Or by virtue of being very persistent (yú), a person's career will be revealed; or by virtue of attachment, the price will increase, and the body will decline. In addition, due to stupidity and not spreading, the search for secrets will be exhausted. Occasionally, there will be no reward, and it will be rare to see it. There are many good and bad, and it is almost difficult to find out. It is well-known in the contemporary era, and its relics are still there. There is no time to suppress it, and it marks its own succession.

The work of six essays originated from Xuanyuan; the rise of eight styles began with Yingzheng (Zheng). It has been here for a long time, and it has been widely used. But it is different between the present and the past. The quality of beauty is suspended, which is neither accustomed to nor neglected. There are also dragons, snakes, clouds and dew, turtles, cranes, flowers, and the like. At first glance, the pictures are really simple, or they are written auspiciously in the past. They are skillfully involved in painting and calligraphy, but the workmanship is poor in calligraphy and regular script. It is not detailed.

The ten chapters of "Yu Zijing's Theory of Brushwork" passed down from generation to generation are poorly written and sparse, with clumsy meaning and clumsy explanations. However, he is not a rightist in detail in his purpose. In addition, Youjun has a high position and high talent, his poems are clear and elegant, his reputation has not been lost, and his Han 椟 (牍) still exists. I watched my husband write a letter and tell me something. When I made a mistake, Ji Gusi was there. How can there be any plan to lead an heir, Dao Ye (xié) righteousness, Zhang Ze will suffer a sudden loss, just like this! He also said that he was a classmate of Zhang Boying, and this was even more illusory. If we refer to Boying in the late Han Dynasty, the eras are not connected at all; there must be people from Jin Dynasty with the same name, how lonely the history is! It is neither training nor scripture, so it is better to abandon it.

What a husband expresses in his heart cannot easily be expressed in famous quotes; what he expresses in words cannot easily be expressed in paper and ink. It can be roughly as if (as if) its shape, and its outline and words are summarized. I hope to learn from the foreigners and get a good meeting. Que (missing) but not caught, please wait for the future.

This article writes the reasons for holding, using, using, and turning to eliminate (qū) the lack of understanding. Holding refers to depth, length, and shortness, etc.; making refers to vertical and horizontal pulls (chè), and the like; turning, refers to hooks and loops (gōuhuán), coils (yū), and the like; use, refers to stippling, pointing to the back, and the like. also. Fang Fu gathered all his methods and put them into one path. He organized all the works and made them intricate and wonderful, so that he could learn from the previous sages and learn from the established rules, get a glimpse of their roots, and analyze their branches. Guishiwen〗About management and support (shàn), the traces show that the mind is clear; the scroll can be seen clearly, and the writing is smooth. Weird words and strange theories, which are not detailed. However, what I have stated now is for the benefit of scholars. However, Youjun's book has been called Xi by many generations, and Liang Ke can be regarded as a master craftsman, and he can take it and return it to his home. Not only does it connect the past and the present, but it also blends them with deep affection, which leads to extensive copying (tà, extension) and a study of the years. He has been famous one after another, but most of them have been scattered; he has been alone in the past dynasties, but he is not his example?

Let’s try to explain the reason and briefly describe its meaning. Such as "Yuè Yi Lun", "Huang Ting Jing", "Dongfang Shuo (shuò) Painting Praise (Praise)", "Taishizhen (zhēn)", "Lanting Anthology Preface", "Oath", this and the other dynasties It is also said that the true conduct is perfect. The writing "Le Yi" is full of emotions (fúyù), the book "Painting Praise (Praise)" is about the wonders of 瓌 (guī, rose), the "Huang Ting Jing" is about joy (yì) nothingness, and the "Taishizhen" is also Struggle vertically and horizontally. In the evening of the Orchid Pavilion, there is a gathering, and the spirit of thinking and leisure is superb; in a private door, the vows are made, and the emotions are restrained and the aspirations are miserable. As the saying goes, when you are involved in music, you laugh, but when you express sorrow, you sigh. How can I just stop and think about the flowing waves, and I will play the music of Huǎn (huǎn, slow); I will rush to the gods and Sui Huan, and I will write the poems painted by Fang Sizao. Although he has witnessed the existence of the Tao, he may still be confused about the meaning of the truth, so he always insists on the name of the body and the habit of partitioning. Unexpectedly, the verb can be used to convey the meaning of coquettishness; Yang is comfortable and Yin is miserable, which is based on the heart of heaven and earth. Now that he has lost his feelings, he is sensible and true. It was caused by his original husband, so he is in good health!

Although the method I used is my own and the scale is set, I believe it belongs to the current situation. A difference of one millimeter (centi) will lead to a loss of thousands of miles. If you know the technique, you can do both. The heart never tires of fine work, and the hand never forgets familiarity. If you use it with full proficiency and the rules are dark (ān, familiar) in your mind, you will naturally tolerate and wander, the intention will be written first and then the Xiao (xiao) will flow〗, and the penmanship will fly. It's like a sheep's heart that foresees the boundless; a cook's eyes can't see the whole cow. If something good happens, I will ask you to practice it. I will give you a rough outline and then teach it. I will understand it with my heart and follow it with my hands, and I will forget my thoughts. Even if I am not exhausted by all the skills, I can definitely achieve the best.

If you understand regular rules, young people are not as good as old people; if you learn the rules, old people are not as good as young people. Thinking is old and more than masterful, learning is little but can be encouraged. There are three times of restraint if you keep trying; when the time changes, it is extremely extreme (fèn). Just like when you are just learning distribution, you should strive for fairness and justice; now that you know fairness and justice, pursue danger and danger; once you are able to avoid danger and danger, return to fairness and justice. In the beginning, it is said that it has not been reached, in the middle, it is passed, and in the later period, it is called Tonghui. At the time of the general meeting, everyone was old. Zhongni said: At fifty, you know your destiny, and at seventy, you follow your heart. Therefore, in order to understand the dangers of barbarians and understand the way of contingency, it is still necessary to plan and then act, and it is not inappropriate to act; when it is time to speak later, the words must be reasonable.

According to Youjun's book, it is wonderful in the last years. When you are thoughtful and thorough, your ambitions are peaceful, neither exciting nor fierce, and the wind and regulations are far away. Now that Zijing has come down, everyone must work hard to make the body complete. Not only does the work not work well, but it is also a person whose expression is hanging apart. Some people despise what they do, or they are jealous of their luck. Those who are proud of themselves will limit the scope of their nature and avoid the temptation to enter; those who are self-contemptuous will still surrender (jué, stubborn) to the realm of love, and there must be a way to get through it. Alas! Gai (Gài, Gai) There are people who have learned but cannot, and there are no people who can do without learning. If you examine the matter immediately, you will be able to tell clearly.

However, there are many sources of information and different temperaments. At first, they are strong and soft, and sometimes they are separated by work and rest. Or it may be indifferent (Yong), with muscles and bones on the inside; or it may be frustrated (chániè), with yào (yào) peak (edge) on the outside. Those who observe it are more refined, and those who imitate it are more noble. The situation cannot be simulated, the observation cannot be accurate, the distribution is still sparse, and the shape of the body has not been examined. The state of jumping in the spring has not seen its beauty; the talk of peeking into the well has already heard its ugliness. If you want to offend Tu Xi and Xian (Tang Dynasty) and falsely accuse Zhong and Zhang, you can cover up your eyes in the past and block your mouth in the future! People who admire Xi's teachings should especially be jealous of them.

If you don't understand Yan (yān) and stay, you will pursue the strong disease; if you can't do it quickly, the effect will be delayed and severe. Those who are fast will have the opportunity to escape; those who stay late will be rewarded. Will turn back (return) to its speed, and achieve the most beautiful way; indulge in delay, and finally enjoy the unparalleled beauty. Being able to go quickly or not is the so-called flood and staying; because it is late, it is late, and you will be rewarded for your reputation! If your husband has an idle mind and a sharp hand, it is difficult for him to do both.

If you want all the wonderful people to return home, be sure to preserve your bones and strength; the bones are already there, and qiú (qiú) is added to them. It is also like the branches (trunks) supporting the sparse (Su), which are strengthened by the frost and snow; the flowers and leaves are fresh and luxuriant, and they shine with the clouds and the sun. If the bones are stronger and the cover is less, then the withered branches are dangerous and the boulders are in the way. Although the beautiful clouds are missing, the body constitution is still there.

If Qiuli is superior, the character will be inferior. For example, if the pistils of the husband's fragrant forest fall, the sky is scorching and there is no one to rely on; the orchid marsh is floating on the ground, only green and ridiculed? This means that it is easy to do partial work, but hard to find perfection.

Although they learn from one family and become many bodies, they all think of themselves as beautiful according to their sexual desires. Those who are straight will be stubborn, those who are rigid will be stubborn, those who are stubborn will be unruly, those who are reserved will be disadvantaged by restraint, those who are free will lose their rules, and those who are gentle will be hurt. When it comes to softness and slowness, those who are impatient and brave are too pushy, those who are doubtful are addicted to stagnation, those who are slow and heavy finally become dull, and those who are light and trivial are tempered by the common officials. These are all loners who like to play their own tricks.

"Yi" says: "Observe the astronomy to observe the changes of time; observe the humanities to transform the world." Kuang Shu is wonderful and can be taken from all bodies. If the order is not used thoroughly, it will still be in the secret (secret); but in the midst of waves, it has been dredged (jùn) on the spiritual platform. You must be able to understand the feelings of pointillism, study the principles from beginning to end, cast insects (insects) and seal scripts, and pottery and cursive scripts. If the five materials of the body are used together, the appearance will not be perfect; if the eight tones are repeated one after another, the feeling will be confused.

If several paintings are applied together, their shapes will be different; all the points will be aligned, forming a body that is consistent with each other. One point becomes one word, and one word is the final word. Violate but not violate, be harmonious but different; stay late but not stay late, send away the disease that is not permanent; bring dryness and moistness, and then dry up the thick; lose the rules in the square and circle, escape the straightness of hooks and ropes; appear sometimes obscure (huì), and if you go well, Hidden; the poor and abnormal are in the hao (mo) end, and the sentiment is on the paper. If you keep your mind attentively and forget the regular rules, you can memorize Xi and offer without any mistakes, and you can work against Zhong and Zhang. For example, the Jianghu tree and the Qingqin are unique and beautiful; Sui (Sui) pearls and jade are different but equally beautiful. Why bother to carve a crane and a dragon, when you are ashamed of your true body? When you catch a fish or a rabbit, you are ashamed of your hooves.

When I heard that my husband's family has the appearance of Nanwei, we can discuss it with Shuyuan; if it has the advantage of Longquan, we can discuss cutting it off. To speak too much is to tire the cardinal.

I have tried to write a book with all my thoughts, and I think it is very consistent. I am often called a knowledgeable person, and I often give guidance. Some of them are beautiful and beautiful, but they have not been noticed; some have been accidentally turned over and admired. If you don't understand what you see, you should also understand what you heard. Or one may be proud of his seniority and his position, which may lead to insults. I faked it with Xiang Ming and inscribed it with ancient eyes. Then the wise men changed their views, and the foolish men continued to praise the wonders at the end. Rarely discussed the loss of the peak (peak). Just like Huihou's fondness for hypocrisy, it's like Ye Gong's fear of truth. This is why I know that there is a reason for the fluctuation of my uncle's breath. My husband, Cai Yong, did not erroneously reward, and Sun Yang did not care too much. He was proficient in mystical knowledge, so he was not stagnant in his ears and eyes. Xiangshi's (Qi) sound is in Cuan (cuàn), and the mediocre listener will be surprised by its wonderful sound; if he is at ease, he will know that it is a unique group, then Bo Li (jiē) is not worthy of being called, and Liang (Bo) Le is not worthy of praise.

As for the old grandma (mǔ) who encounters a problem, she complains at first and then asks for help; when a disciple gets a book machine, the father cuts it (xiāo) and the son is upset, knowing and not knowing. It's strange that a gentleman surrenders to not knowing himself and extends himself to a knowledgeable person, but he doesn't know him! Therefore, Zhuangzi said: "The bacteria in the morning do not know Hui Shuo, and the scorpions (gū) do not know the spring and autumn." Laozi said: "When the inferior hears the Tao, he laughs; if he does not laugh, he is not enough to follow the Tao." How can you hold the ice and blame the summer insects ( Worm)!

Since the Han and Wei dynasties, there have been many commentators on books, and there have been many mixed reviews and disputes over the entries. Some may retell old chapters, but they are not different from the past; some may try to introduce new ones, but they will not be beneficial to the future; they only make what is complex become more complex, and what is missing remains missing. This is a six-part compilation divided into two volumes. The first one is called "Shupu" for its work. The purpose of keeping it secret is unavailable.

Notes on Chui Gong’s Three Years
