Abstract: Huangliangmeng(means millet dream) comes out of Zhen Zhong Ji(Reecord of a Dream) which is masterpiece of Shen Jiqi,a famous romancist of Tang Dynasty,and was written during second year of Jianzhong Period and first year of Xingyuan Period,when he was relegated.According to its influences,it's really an eternal dream.Zhen Zhong Ji was handed down in Tai Ping Guang Ji and Wen Yuan Ying Hua.In two variant records,the differences of shu(millet) and huangliang(fine grain or gold millet) are significant,and because latter one is convenient for making words and phrases in poems,it becomes popular one.The essence of Zhen Zhong Ji is that is just like a dream,which is ancients' philosophical thinking based on experiences and rooted in Daoism.Zhen Zhong Ji was emerged from stories of the pillow in Jiaohu in Sou Shen Ji and Yong Ming Lu,so author expanded meaning of it in order to express suspicion,despair and even criticize to politics of reality and self-denial of following fame and honor.However,it's hard to be awakened from and saying life is a dream is just frustraters' loses and puzzles.Because of huge influences of Huangliangmeng,the ancients had interpreted Huangliang Inn where Scholar Lu had dreamed near Handan by anology and built Immortal Lu Temple where lots of poems were written there.Moreover,under influence of belief in Eight Immortals in legend,the Immortal Lu was regarded as Lu Dongbin.
