They say he would always have a pitcher of wine with him everywhere he went and even asked to be buried alongside it upon his death. Legend has it that Liu Ling made a bet with Du Kang, the inventor and God of wine. The bet’s terms were that if he drinks the wine prepared by Du Kang and does not get drunk for three years, then the wine will cost him nothing. However, Liu Ling, after drinking three glasses, fell asleep for three years. The story claims that Du Kang visited the Liu Ling family after three years and saved him from the effects of wine. 2 The idea that wine helps to resolve situations and conflicts that arise at different levels of society. Through the performance of certain rituals and customs associated with wine drinking during a common feast, villagers and townspeople, government and military officials would settle disputes and reach agreement among themselves. 3 This part refers to how when brewing different types of tea, they give off different colors, ranging from light yellow to dark brown. 4 The concept of 禪林 chanlin (“the Chan’s grove”) implies Buddhist temples and mon- asteries, secluded in forest thickets. 5 In the original text, the character 佛 fo («Buddha», «buddhism») is replaced with character 仏 fo containing the same meaning. 6 This refers to the Chinese bodhisattva Guanyin.
