| Summary | "搜神記" by Bao Gan is a collection of supernatural tales composed during the late 3rd century. The text explores various myths, legends, and accounts of divine beings and historical figures from ancient China, weaving together an array of fantastical narratives that intertwine the human experience with the numinous. The stories often include intriguing characters like神農 (Shennong), who is associated with agriculture and medicinal knowledge, and other figures known for their mystical abilities and interactions with the divine. The opening of "搜神記" introduces several legendary figures, each with unique attributes and supernatural abilities. It begins with the tale of Shennong, who is known for his knowledge of plants and their properties, followed by other individuals like 赤松子 (Chisongzi) and 彭祖 (Pengzu), who possess extraordinary skills and knowledge of immortality. As the narratives unfold, readers are introduced to various events that depict these figures' interactions with divine beings, their mastery over nature, and the significance of their contributions to Chinese mythology and cultural history. The text sets a rich backdrop of mysticism and folklore that promises to captivate readers interested in the interrelation between humanity and the supernatural.
