What if I told you 4 00:00:05,766 --> 00:00:06,700 There's a girl. 5 00:00:06,733 --> 00:00:07,233 Had a dream 6 00:00:08,133 --> 00:00:09,566 I met a man in my dream 7 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:10,533 After waking up 8 00:00:10,566 --> 00:00:12,200 Her obsession with this dream 9 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,666 So strong that it killed itself 10 00:00:14,533 --> 00:00:15,433 But that's not the end of the story. 11 00:00:16,433 --> 00:00:18,733 Her mind directly penetrated life and death 12 00:00:18,766 --> 00:00:20,000 Come out of the grave 13 00:00:20,666 --> 00:00:22,133 I really found the man in my dream 14 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,033 Discovered that he actually existed 15 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,000 The last two people not only got married 16 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,733 The man also won the first place in the exam 17 00:00:28,766 --> 00:00:29,866 A happy ending 18 00:00:30,166 --> 00:00:31,366 After hearing this story 19 00:00:31,366 --> 00:00:32,333 What was your first reaction?

00:00:38,466 This is the ultimate proof 23 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:40,633 As long as your mind is strong enough 24 00:00:40,933 --> 00:00:42,366 The universe will come to your aid 25 00:00:42,933 --> 00:00:44,800 She proved with her life - believe 26 00:00:45,266 --> 00:00:45,900 Can get 27 00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:49,600 But if you follow along with this series 28 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,333 What's in your heart right now 29 00:00:51,366 --> 00:00:52,866 Definitely not touching 30 00:00:52,866 --> 00:00:55,766 It's a more dispassionate question: a person 31 00:00:55,766 --> 00:00:57,466 To an empty dream 32 00:00:57,500 --> 00:00:59,633 Persistent enough to penetrate life and death 33 00:01:00,233 --> 00:01:02,233 This is what the world is singing about 34 00:01:02,533 --> 00:01:03,566 Or in Buddhism? 35 00:01:03,566 --> 00:01:05,333 The most extreme form of pervasiveness 36 00:01:05,966 --> 00:01:06,933 Four hundred years ago 37 00:01:07,266 --> 00:01:08,266 Tang Xianzu in the Ming Dynasty 38 00:01:08,633 --> 00:01:09,900 Let's put this ultimate question 39 00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:10,833 Written into a play 40 00:01:11,433 --> 00:01:13,600 He doesn't directly tell you whether the answer is right or wrong 41 00:01:13,933 --> 00:01:15,366 Just spend a girl's life 42 00:01:15,733 --> 00:01:16,666 Put this obsession 43 00:01:16,666 --> 00:01:17,666 From rooting to sprouting 44 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:18,900 To devour life 45 00:01:19,266 --> 00:01:21,100 To the whole process of life and death 46 00:01:21,100 --> 00:01:22,300 I'll show you the whole

51 00:01:26,666 --> 00:01:27,366 Hello. 52 00:01:27,566 --> 00:01:28,366 I am Wang Lijie 53 00:01:28,733 --> 00:01:31,333 This is the fourth installment of the series "Deconstructing Classics with Buddhism" 54 00:01:32,066 --> 00:01:32,966 The first three issues 55 00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:35,633 We dismantled the seeds and seasons in < Mirror Flower Edge > respectively 56 00:01:36,333 -->

today's < Peony Pavilion > 59 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,666 It's this series so far 60 00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:45,466 The most extreme part 61 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,033 Because it clings to this thing 62 00:01:48,033 --> 00:01:51,700 Pushed to the limits of human experience - the object of your attachment 63 00:01:51,733 --> 00:01:53,766 It doesn't even exist. 64 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,000 It only comes from one of your dreams 65 00:01:55,466 --> 00:01:56,600 Take two minutes 66 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,033 For friends who have never heard of it 67 00:01:58,033 --> 00:01:58,966 Tell the story through 68 00:01:59,966 --> 00:02:03,333 The Peony Pavilion was written by Tang Xianzu in 1598 69 00:02:03,366 --> 00:02:04,966 The protagonist is named Du Liniang 70 00:02:04,966 --> 00:02:06,833 She is the only daughter of the prefect of Nan'an 71 00:02:06,866 --> 00:02:08,400 Sixteen 72 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,600 Locked in a boudoir courtyard since childhood 73 00:02:10,633 --> 00:02:12,633 I read Confucian classics every day 74 00:02:12,633 --> 00:02:14,566 Learn three from four virtues 75 00:02:14,566 --> 00:02:16,800 There's nothing amicable in life. 76 00:02:17,133 --> 00:02:18,300 Until one day 77 00:02:18,300 --> 00:02:20,733 Mr. Private School told her the beginning of the < Book of Songs > 78 00:02:20,766 --> 00:02:22,000 Guan Guan Jujiu 79 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,300 In the River Continent - This is one of the oldest love songs in Chinese literature 80 00:02:26,233 --> 00:02:27,166 Just this sentence 81 00:02:27,166 --> 00:02:29,366 Directly in Du Liniang's sealed heart 82 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,466 Pry open the first crack 83 00:02:30,566 --> 00:02:32,133 Then spring came 84 00:02:32,166 --> 00:02:33,866 The maid took her secretly to the back garden 85 00:02:34,566 --> 00:02:37,266 For the first time in her life, she saw the spring in the garden 86 00:02:37,266 --> 00:02:38,466 Flower Blossom Butterfly Dance 87 00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:39,833 Willow pink 88 00:02:39,866 --> 00:02:41,966 The life force of nature just bumped into her eyes 89 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:43,700 This is the second seam 90 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,000 After returning to the room 91 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:45,633 She had a dream 92 00:02:46,433 --> 00:02:47,100 Dream 93 00:02:47,133 --> 00:02:49,766 She met a young scholar with a willow branch 94 00:02:49,766 --> 00:02:51,466 Two people are at the peony pavilion 95 00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:52,633 Private life 96 00:02:52,666 --> 00:02:54,233 Have a lingering affection 97 00:02:54,766 --> 00:02:55,800 But dreams always wake up 98 00:02:56,833 --> 00:02:57,866 After waking up 99 00:02:57,900 --> 00:02:59,233 Du Liniang's World 100 00:02:59,266 --> 00:02:59,833 Completely collapsed 101 00:03:00,766 --> 00:03:03,133 She went crazy and searched the whole garden. 102 00:03:03,133 --> 00:03:04,966 I will never find the person in my dream 103 00:03:05,033 --> 00:03:05,966 Never have that dream again 104 00:03:06,733 --> 00:03:07,566 from now on 105 00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:08,866 She is day and night 106 00:03:08,866 --> 00:03:11,600 Thinking of someone who doesn't exist in reality 107 00:03:11,633 --> 00:03:12,700 Tea and rice 108 00:03:12,700 --> 00:03:14,033 Withered away 109 00:03:14,066 --> 00:03:15,600 In the fall of that year 110 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:15,933 She is dead. 111 00:03:16,533 --> 00:03:18,333 But the most subversive part of the story 112 00:03:18,333 --> 00:03:19,066 It's just getting started. 113 00:03:19,866 --> 00:03:20,866 After Du Liniang died 114 00:03:21,333 --> 00:03:22,133 The soul has arrived in the underworld 115 00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:23,766 Judge check 116 00:03:24,166 --> 00:03:26,366 I found out that she still has a human marriage gone 117 00:03:26,700 --> 00:03:28,066 Gave her the freedom to wander 118 00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:29,966 Let her go back to the world to find someone 119 00:03:30,233 --> 00:03:33,866 In the end, she really found - the scholar in the dream, Liu Mengmei 120 00:03:33,866 --> 00:03:34,966 It's actually real 121 00:03:36,033 --> 00:03:36,733 Later 122 00:03:36,733 --> 00:03:38,366 Liu Mengmei followed her instructions 123 00:03:38,366 --> 00:03:39,700 Dig the grave 124 00:03:39,733 --> 00:03:41,033 Du Liniang comes back to life 125 00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:44,166 In the end, Liu Mengmei won the champion in the test 126 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,133 Du Liniang also recognized her father 127 00:03:46,133 --> 00:03:47,366 Everyone thinks 128 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,866 This is a fulfilling love fairy tale 129 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,266 That's the end. 130 00:03:50,266 --> 00:03:51,766 Now we're going to break down the inner core. 131 00:03:52,866 --> 00:03:53,666 Ask the first question first 132 00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:57,533 Du Liniang fell in love with someone she had never met in her dream 133 00:03:57,566 --> 00:03:58,000 This Dream 134 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,666 Where did it come from? 135 00:03:59,833 --> 00:04:01,866 From the framework of Buddhist consciousness-only 136 00:04:01,866 --> 00:04:02,600 The answer is particularly clear 137 00:04:03,500 --> 00:04:05,233 Deep within each of our subconscious 138 00:04:05,533 --> 00:04:07,466 There is a seed bank called alaiyashi 139 00:04:08,233 --> 00:04:12,966 Your longing for love, your longing to be seen, your longing for the wholeness of life 140 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,033 These thoughts 141 00:04:14,033 --> 00:04:15,433 From the moment you were born 142 00:04:15,433 --> 00:04:16,933 Hidden here like a seed 143 00:04:17,933 --> 00:04:19,433 Usually it sleeps 144 00:04:19,466 --> 00:04:21,200 As long as you meet the right opportunity 145 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,233 It will explode in an instant 146 00:04:22,666 --> 00:04:24,700 The first 16 years of Du Liniang's life 147 00:04:24,700 --> 00:04:26,566 It's a completely sealed iron box. 148 00:04:27,533 --> 00:04:30,633 The boudoir and strict female moral education of the prefect's mansion 149 00:04:30,666 --> 00:04:33,166 Take all the opportunities that can trigger these seeds 150 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,000 All blocked outside 151 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,133 Until the < Book of Songs > and the spring in the back garden 152 00:04:37,133 --> 00:04:38,566 Give this iron box 153 00:04:38,566 --> 00:04:39,566 Pry open two cracks 154 00:04:40,433 --> 00:04:41,566 Guan Guan Jujiu 155 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,600 Even if it is packaged as a Confucian education textbook 156 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,933 It's in the bones. 157 00:04:45,933 --> 00:04:48,566 It's still a sign that there is deep love in the world 158 00:04:48,566 --> 00:04:50,200 This is Du Liniang's consciousness 159 00:04:50,233 --> 00:04:52,100 Received information about love for the first time 160 00:04:53,300 --> 00:04:54,666 And the garden is full of spring 161 00:04:54,700 --> 00:04:57,166 It is the most straightforward vitality of nature 162 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,533 It silently told Du Liniang: Life is supposed to bloom 163 00:05:01,533 --> 00:05:03,633 Why would you lock yourself up? 164 00:05:03,733 --> 00:05:05,333 Two cracks superimposed 165 00:05:05,633 --> 00:05:07,766 The seed that has been asleep for sixteen years 166 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,266 Opportunity is instant 167 00:05:09,266 --> 00:05:09,833 Just blow up 168 00:05:10,133 --> 00:05:13,033 But here's the problem: the seeds explode 169 00:05:13,033 --> 00:05:15,033 Surging desire 170 00:05:15,033 --> 00:05:16,833 In reality, nothing can catch it at all 171 00:05:17,566 --> 00:05:18,733 In her life 172 00:05:18,733 --> 00:05:20,233 No real person 173 00:05:20,266 --> 00:05:22,066 Can take on this sudden love 174 00:05:23,333 --> 00:05:24,000 therefore 175 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,033 Her mind did the ultimate thing - it made one of its own 176 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:28,933 In a dream 177 00:05:28,933 --> 00:05:30,266 Her alaya knowledge 178 00:05:30,266 --> 00:05:33,200 Called all the parameters about the ideal lover 179 00:05:33,233 --> 00:05:37,166 A perfect scholar is rendered out of thin air: holding a willow branch 180 00:05:37,166 --> 00:05:38,366 Gentle and affectionate 181 00:05:38,366 --> 00:05:40,533 Just appeared by the peony pavilion 182 00:05:40,533 --> 00:05:42,000 Just met all her expectations 183 00:05:43,033 --> 00:05:45,466 This is what Buddhism says about all kinds of things 184 00:05:45,500 --> 00:05:47,300 The purest and most extreme form 185 00:05:47,666 --> 00:05:49,566 What is universal planning? 186 00:05:49,766 --> 00:05:50,600 To put it bluntly 187 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,100 It's when you think about something 188 00:05:52,100 --> 00:05:54,466 The brain makes up a set of meanings that don't exist at all 189 00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:56,100 And they're holding on to it. 190 00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:57,433 Take it as the only truth 191 00:05:58,433 --> 00:06:00,100 The last issue we talked about < Dream of Red Mansions > 192 00:06:00,133 --> 00:06:01,800 Lin Daiyu's love obsession 193 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,466 At least there is a real Jia Baoyu standing in front of her 194 00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:05,133 Her obsession 195 00:06:05,133 --> 00:06:06,466 It's for real people. 196 00:06:06,500 --> 00:06:07,733 Added a thick layer of filter 197 00:06:08,566 --> 00:06:09,800 But what about Du Liniang? 198 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,400 She doesn't even have this real person 199 00:06:12,433 --> 00:06:13,366 She is persistent 200 00:06:13,366 --> 00:06:15,966 It's an illusion created 100 percent by your own mind. 201 00:06:16,933 --> 00:06:20,400 If Lin Daiyu sees the world through tinted glasses 202 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:21,466 That Du Liniang 203 00:06:21,500 --> 00:06:22,833 Just close your eyes 204 00:06:22,866 --> 00:06:24,166 On the inside of the eyelids 205 00:06:24,166 --> 00:06:26,000 Watch your own projected movie 206 00:06:26,033 --> 00:06:27,700 Then I fell in love with the male lead in the movie 207 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:28,833 Here we go. 208 00:06:28,833 --> 00:06:31,000 The most crucial turning point has arrived: the dream

night 212 00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:38,300 Wake up in the morning and laugh 213 00:06:38,300 --> 00:06:39,366 Time to go to work 214 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:40,200 It's time to move bricks 215 00:06:41,233 --> 00:06:42,100 Why is that? 216 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,433 Because of your consciousness 217 00:06:43,433 --> 00:06:45,266 Can distinguish between dreams and reality 218 00:06:45,366

more than the sixteen years she was awake 231 00:07:11,466 --> 00:07:12,500 It's got to be real. 232 00:07:13,433 --> 00:07:14,500 Her consciousness 233 00:07:14,533 --> 00:07:16,366 Directly put the weight of this dream 234 00:07:16,366 --> 00:07:18,233 Moved to a higher position than reality 235 00:07:19,100 --> 00:07:20,300 From this moment on 236 00:07:20,300 --> 00:07:23,400 The real world becomes irrelevant background sound 237 00:07:23,433 --> 00:07:24,900 The scholar in the dream 238 00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:26,733 Became the only sign in her life 239 00:07:27,700 --> 00:07:29,533 She ran back to the garden again and again 240 00:07:29,566 --> 00:07:31,000 I want to get that dream back 241 00:07:31,033 --> 00:07:32,366 Can't find it. 242 00:07:32,366 --> 00:07:34,333 She stared at her portrait in a daze 243 00:07:34,333 --> 00:07:35,366 Because she thinks 244 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,300 Self in painting 245 00:07:36,666 --> 00:07:37,866 Than yourself in the mirror 246 00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:40,333 Closer to the way I was loved in my dream 247 00:07:41,266 --> 00:07:42,900 Her entire sensory system 248 00:07:42,900 --> 00:07:44,033 By this dream 249 00:07:44,066 --> 00:07:45,166 Completely reprogrammed 250 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:46,300 And then... 251 00:07:46,333 --> 00:07:46,800 She is dead. 252 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,033 She didn't die. 253 00:07:49,066 --> 00:07:51,066 It is the persistent seed 254 00:07:51,066 --> 00:07:53,533 In the absence of any external nourishment 255 00:07:53,566 --> 00:07:55,400 Put all her life energy into it 256 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:56,033 Completely drained 257 00:07:57,033 --> 00:08:00,366 Think about that image: a 16-year-old girl 258 00:08:00,366 --> 00:08:01,300 There was no war. 259 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:02,766 He didn't get sick. 260 00:08:03,166 --> 00:08:04,800 We didn't encounter any external disasters. 261 00:08:05,266 --> 00:08:08,133 Just because of an illusion in my consciousness 262 00:08:08,133 --> 00:08:09,266 They're killing themselves. 263 00:08:09,933 --> 00:08:10,933 Hear here 264 00:08:10,966 --> 00:08:11,966 Do you still think 265 00:08:11,966 --> 00:08:13,766 Is this just a romantic love story? 266 00:08:13,900 --> 00:08:14,966 But that's it. 267 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:15,466 It's not over yet. 268 00:08:16,433 --> 00:08:17,766 Here's what comes next. 269 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,000 It is the most worthy part of < Peony Pavilion > 270 00:08:21,033 --> 00:08:22,266 Du Liniang is dead 271 00:08:22,266 --> 00:08:23,400 But her persistence 272 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,033 Straight through the border of life and death 273 00:08:26,033 --> 00:08:27,166 Buddhism says 274 00:08:27,166 --> 00:08:29,100 What power can transcend life and death? 275 00:08:29,333 --> 00:08:29,700 Is karma 276 00:08:30,666 --> 00:08:31,866 Let me put it more precisely. 277 00:08:31,900 --> 00:08:33,433 It's Alaya Shiri 278 00:08:33,433 --> 00:08:36,833 Those highly weighted and deeply persistent seed patterns 279 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,266 A person on his deathbed 280 00:08:39,300 --> 00:08:41,200 The strongest thought in my heart 281 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,500 Will directly determine the direction of your next life journey 282 00:08:44,566 --> 00:08:46,000 Du Liniang before her death 283 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,966 What is the strongest thought? 284 00:08:48,133 --> 00:08:49,266 It's the scholar in the dream 285 00:08:50,333 --> 00:08:51,766 Her love seeds 286 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,366 At the moment of death 287 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,800 Instead of dissipating 288 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,000 Instead, it became her only passport through life and death 289 00:08:57,900 --> 00:08:58,733 This thing 290 00:08:58,766 --> 00:08:59,933 Look at it from another angle 291 00:08:59,933 --> 00:09:00,833 It's not romantic at all 292 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:02,933 Buddhism 293 00:09:02,933 --> 00:09:04,566 What is the driving force behind reincarnation? 294 00:09:04,766 --> 00:09:05,500 This is it. 295 00:09:06,333 --> 00:09:07,733 The moment you die 296 00:09:07,733 --> 00:09:09,433 The tightest thing in my heart 297 00:09:09,433 --> 00:09:11,466 Will draw you directly into the next cycle 298 00:09:12,633 --> 00:09:13,566 greedy person 299 00:09:13,566 --> 00:09:15,466 Circulated by greed 300 00:09:15,500 --> 00:09:16,333 Hatred person 301 00:09:16,333 --> 00:09:18,100 Flowing with hatred 302 00:09:18,133 --> 00:09:19,300 And Du Liniang 303 00:09:19,300 --> 00:09:21,100 Due to the love in a dream 304 00:09:21,133 --> 00:09:21,633 And circulation 305 00:09:22,066 --> 00:09:25,166 Xian Chemistry shouts to you every day: Your beliefs 306 00:09:25,166 --> 00:09:26,133 Create your reality 307 00:09:26,933 --> 00:09:28,366 That's right. 308 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:29,733 Du Liniang's Faith 309 00:09:29,733 --> 00:09:31,066 It did create her reality. 310 00:09:32,033 --> 00:09:33,700 But the essence of this creation 311 00:09:33,733 --> 00:09:35,966 It's not the Law of Attraction at all. 312 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:36,633 It's reincarnation. 313 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,566 Her obsession 314 00:09:38,566 --> 00:09:40,266 Didn't bring her awakening 315 00:09:40,300 --> 00:09:43,666 Instead, it drags her into a life-and-death cycle that she has to continue to pursue 316 00:09:44,433 --> 00:09:44,866 This 317 00:09:44,866 --> 00:09:48,033 It's Tang Xianzu hiding under the shell of romantic love 318 00:09:48,033 --> 00:09:49,333 The hardest truth 319 00:09:49,666 --> 00:09:53,000 You may say: But didn't she find Liu Mengmei in the end? 320 00:09:53,133 --> 00:09:53,900 Isn't it resurrected? 321 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,866 Isn't it a big reunion? 322 00:09:56,100 --> 00:09:56,633 Yes 323 00:09:56,666 --> 00:09:57,433 So this happened. 324 00:09:58,633 --> 00:10:02,233 But think carefully about a question: Du Liniang after the resurrection 325 00:10:02,233 --> 00:10:04,066 Is there even a moment 326 00:10:04,066 --> 00:10:05,266 Wake up. 327 00:10:05,333 --> 00:10:07,000 Is there even a moment 328 00:10:07,033 --> 00:10:10,900 And she realized, "The thing that I was holding on to so desperately." 329 00:10:10,900 --> 00:10:12,833 It's an illusion of my own making. 330 00:10:13,900 --> 00:10:14,266 Nope. 331 00:10:14,933 --> 00:10:15,666 She just 332 00:10:15,666 --> 00:10:17,233 Just got what she wanted 333 00:10:18,133 --> 00:10:20,000 This is the Peony Pavilion and Dream of the Red Chamber. 334 00:10:20,033 --> 00:10:21,000 The deepest difference 335 00:10:21,766 --> 00:10:22,833 In a Dream of Red Mansions 336 00:10:22,866 --> 00:10:24,966 After Jia Baoyu lost everything 337 00:10:24,966 --> 00:10:26,933 The filter used by that layer 338 00:10:26,933 --> 00:10:27,733 Broken 339 00:10:27,766 --> 00:10:28,900 He woke up from his dream 340 00:10:29,733 --> 00:10:30,933 In the Peony Pavilion 341 00:10:30,933 --> 00:10:32,666 Du Liniang from start to finish 342 00:10:32,700 --> 00:10:33,133 Didn't wake up 343 00:10:34,033 --> 00:10:35,166 Her obsession 344 00:10:35,166 --> 00:10:36,900 Strong enough to pierce life and death 345 00:10:36,933 --> 00:10:38,533 Found that person 346 00:10:38,533 --> 00:10:40,400 Put the original empty dream 347 00:10:40,433 --> 00:10:41,433 Completely became a reality 348 00:10:42,533 --> 00:10:43,933 But that just means 349 00:10:43,966 --> 00:10:45,400 She's obsessed with everything. 350 00:10:45,433 --> 00:10:46,366 Thoroughly verified 351 00:10:47,166 --> 00:10:48,600 The seed of obsession 352 00:10:48,633 --> 00:10:50,233 Far from being transformed 353 00:10:50,233 --> 00:10:51,366 It's been permanently reinforced. 354 00:10:51,666 --> 00:10:52,666 You might ask 355 00:10:52,700 --> 00:10:53,733 Tang Xianzu himself 356 00:10:53,766 --> 00:10:55,466 Do you know what he wrote? 357 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:56,233 He knows too well 358 00:10:57,266 --> 00:11:00,466 Tang Xianzu and Daguan, one of the four eminent monks in the late Ming Dynasty 359 00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:02,000 Also known as Zibai Zhenke 360 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,366 Best friend for life 361 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,866 Zi Baizhen is a true

sentence to sing about love 374 00:11:28,500 --> 00:11:29,666 Printed on bookmarks 375 00:11:29,700 --> 00:11:30,366 Written in a love letter 376 00:11:31,166 --> 00:11:33,700 But if you know Tang
