About This Novel
"Words to Warn the World" is a collection of short stories in vernacular compiled by Feng Menglong, a writer in the late Ming Dynasty. Together with Feng Menglong's other two novels "Awakening Words to Awaken the World" and "Yingshi Mingyan", they are collectively known as "Three Words" by later generations. Together with Ling Shuchu's "Surprise at the First Moment" and "Surprise at the Second Moment" by Ling Shuchu, they are also known as "Three Words and Two Pai". As a peak of ancient vernacular short stories, "Jingshi Tongyan" contains a total of forty stories in the Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties in both scripts and pseudo-hua scripts. The themes of "Words to Warn the World" are all-encompassing, including marriage, love and women's fate, fame and fortune and the vicissitudes of life, strange and unjust cases and the weird world, which focus on the thoughts, artistic characteristics and achievements of "Three Words". Except for "Old Disciple III Repaying Favor" written by Feng Menglong, which has been confirmed to be written by Feng Menglong himself, the other works included in the collection were processed and organized by the editor. Among them, "Du Shiniang sank her treasure chest in anger", "Spring falls in the Yutang and it is hard to find a husband", "Yu Boya threw his zither to thank his close friend", "Li banished the immortal with drunken grass and frightened the barbarians", etc. Are all popular famous works.

Reading is interesting, thinking is boring, but it amuses the ears
Three words and two shots are good.
It's a really good children's book, very beneficial.
Learn to be a good person first
Reading one or two, I benefited a lot.
Aren't husbands and wives originally birds of the same forest, flying apart when disaster strikes?
It seems that I need to read more and take more notes to increase my knowledge. If I can't speak, I will make people laugh.
good book
Very good, very good book. Well worth a look.
It makes sense to be called the ancestor of the Eight Diagrams. After all, they are all talented men and beautiful women, gods and ghosts. Don't talk about character, just talk about knowledge.
Three words
Encourage the world to be a police officer and be a good person
Good, good, good
A very good book, the story is fascinating and the truth is thought-provoking.
