English version Dunhuang Records Xiaogucheng was originally a fishing and hunting ground. During the reign of Emperor Xiao of the Han Dynasty, Cui Buyi taught people to cultivate fields and grow grains, hence the name. Later it became a county. Ershi Spring is three stages east of Shacheng. During the Han Dynasty, Li Guangli's army was thirsty and exhausted, prayed to the mountain god, and stabbed the mountain with a sword, so water flowed out. It flowed westward for dozens of miles to Huangzhangbo. Later, a general, very thirsty, drank the spring water and died by the spring. The water then stopped flowing, only reaching the flat ground. Later, if there are many people, there is much water, if there are few people, there is little water. If the people in the prefecture drink a lot of water, the water will drop sharply. It is still like this today. The Ershi Temple is on the roadside and has been abandoned for a long time. There are only piles of stones, which are places for camels and pedestrians to pray for blessings. Further east enters the boundary of Guazhou. South of Guazhou is the Mogao Caves (Mogao Caves, Buddhist caves located in Dunhuang). It is twenty-five li from Guazhou. In the middle, pass through the Shiqi, and reach there along the hillside, entering the valley. To its east is Sanwei Mountain (Sanwei Mountain), and to its west is Mingsha Mountain (Mingsha Mountain). In the middle, there is water flowing from south to north, called Dangquan River (Dangquan River). There are many ancient temples and monks' residences, and there are also large bells. At the north and south ends of the valley are Tianwang Hall and shrines, with murals of the Tubet Emperor's (Tubet Emperor) entourage. The west wall of the mountain is two li from north to south, and all are carved with tall sand caves, sculpting and painting Buddha statues. Each cave costs millions of tax money. In front, there are several layers of pavilions and large Buddha statue halls. The Buddha statue is one hundred and sixty feet tall. There are countless small niches, all with virtual railings connected, which are scenes for pilgrimage and sightseeing. Further south, there is a place where Avalokiteśvara (Avalokiteśvara) appears. The people in the prefecture always walk there on foot. Their respect is like this. Mingsha Mountain is ten li from Guazhou. The mountain is eighty li from east to west, forty li from north to south, and five hundred feet high. They are all pure sand accumulations. This mountain is very magical, and the peaks are like being cut by a knife. There is a well in between, and the sand cannot cover it. In midsummer, it makes a sound, and the sound of people and horses stepping on it vibrates for dozens of miles. The custom is that on the Dragon Boat Festival, the women in the city climb to the peak and slide down together. The sound of the sand is like thunder until dawn. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

看之。峭崿如旧。古号鸣沙。神沙而祠焉。近南有甘泉。自沙山南。其上源出大雪山。于西南寿昌县界入炖煌。以其沃润之功俗号甘泉。 金鞍山在沙山西南。经夏常有雪。山中有神祠。甚灵。人不敢近。每岁土主望祀献骏马。驱入山中。稍近立致雷电风雹之患。州西南有李先王庙。即西凉昭王先世之庙。干封年。庙侧得瑞石。其色翠碧。有赤文古字云。卜世三十。卜年七百。今人呼为李庙。 州西有阳关。即故玉门关。因沙州刺史阳明诏追拒命奔出此关。后人呼为阳关。接鄯善城。险阻乏水草。不通人行。其关后移州东。城西八十五里。有玉女泉。人传颇有虚。每岁此郡率童男女各一人。充祭湫神。年则顺成。不尔损苗。父母虽苦生离儿女。为神所录。欢然携手而没神龙中。刺史张孝嵩下车求。郡人告之。大守怒曰。岂有川源妖怪害我生灵。遂设坛备性泉侧曰。愿见本身。欲亲享。神乃化为一龙从水而出。太守应弦中喉。拔剑斩首。亲诣阙进上。玄宗嘉称再三。遂赐龙舌。敕号龙舌。张氏编在简书。郡城西北一里有寺。古木阴森。中有小堡。上设廊殿。具体而徴。先有沙倅张球。已迈从心。寓止于此。虽非博学。亦甚苦心。盖经乱年多。习业人少。遂集后进。以阐大猷。天不愍遗。民受其赐。 现代汉语译本 看那鸣沙山，山势陡峭如旧。古时称之为鸣沙山，人们视其为神圣之地并在此祭祀。靠近鸣沙山南边有甘泉，从沙山南边流出。它的源头出自大雪山，在西南方的寿昌县境内流入敦煌。因为甘泉有滋润万物之功，所以当地人称之为甘泉。 金鞍山在鸣沙山的西南方，即使在夏天也经常有积雪。山中有一座神祠，非常灵验。人们不敢靠近。每年当地的土官都会祭祀山神，献上骏马，然后将马驱赶入山中。如果有人稍微靠近，就会立刻遭受雷电风雹的灾害。瓜州西南方有李先王庙，是西凉昭王先世的庙宇。在干封年间，庙宇旁边发现了一块瑞石，颜色翠绿碧透，上面有红色的古代文字，写着‘卜世三十，卜年七百’。现在人们称之为李庙。 瓜州西边有阳关，也就是过去的玉门关。因为沙州刺史阳明诏追捕不服命令逃出关外的人，所以后人称之为阳关。阳关连接着鄯善城，地势险峻，缺乏水草，不适合人行走。后来阳关被移到了瓜州东边，在城西八十五里的地方。那里有玉女泉，人们传说有很多虚假之处。每年瓜州都要挑选童男童女各一人，用来祭祀湫神。如果当年顺利，就会五谷丰登。否则，庄稼就会受损。父母虽然痛苦地与儿女分离，但认为儿女被神灵所选中，所以欢快地手牵着手沉入神龙中。刺史张孝嵩上任后，询问此事。当地人告诉了他。太守愤怒地说：‘难道有川源妖怪危害我的百姓？’于是设立祭坛，准备好祭品在泉边说：‘希望见到神灵的真身，我想亲自祭享。’神灵就化为一条龙从水中出来。太守拉弓射中了龙的喉咙，拔剑砍下了龙的头，亲自送到朝廷进献。玄宗皇帝非常赞赏，赐予龙舌，并敕封为龙舌。张孝嵩的事迹被记录在史书上。瓜州城西北一里处有一座寺庙，古木阴森。寺庙中有一个小堡，上面设有廊殿，具体而微。先前有沙州判官张球，已经到了随心所欲的年纪，居住在这里。虽然不是博学之士，但也非常用心。因为经过多年战乱，学习的人很少，于是聚集后进之士，来阐扬大道。上天没有怜悯遗民，百姓因此受到恩惠。

English version Look at the Mingsha Mountain (Singing Sands Mountain), its steep cliffs remain as before. In ancient times, it was called Mingsha (Singing Sands), and people regarded it as a sacred place and worshiped it here. Near the south of Mingsha Mountain is Ganquan (Sweet Spring), flowing from the south of the sand mountain. Its source originates from the Daxue Mountain (Great Snow Mountain), and it enters Dunhuang within the boundary of Shouchang County in the southwest. Because Ganquan (Sweet Spring) has the merit of nourishing all things, the locals call it Ganquan (Sweet Spring). Jin'an Mountain (Golden Saddle Mountain) is located southwest of Mingsha Mountain. Even in summer, it often has snow. There is a shrine in the mountain, which is very efficacious. People dare not approach it. Every year, the local chieftain would worship the mountain god, offering fine horses, and then drive the horses into the mountain. If anyone gets a little closer, they will immediately suffer from disasters of thunder, lightning, wind, and hail. Southwest of Guazhou (Melon Prefecture) is the Li Xianwang Temple (Temple of the Former King Li), which is the ancestral temple of the Xianwang (Former King) of the Xiliang (Western Liang) Zhao Dynasty. During the Qianfeng era, a auspicious stone was found next to the temple, its color was emerald green and clear, with red ancient characters on it, which read 'Predict thirty generations, predict seven hundred years.' Now people call it Li Temple. West of Guazhou (Melon Prefecture) is Yangguan (Yang Pass), which is the old Yumen Pass (Jade Gate Pass). Because Yang Mingzhao, the prefect of Shazhou (Sand Prefecture), pursued and resisted those who disobeyed orders and fled out of this pass, later generations called it Yangguan (Yang Pass). Yangguan (Yang Pass) is connected to Shanshan City, the terrain is dangerous, and there is a lack of water and grass, which is not suitable for people to walk. Later, Yangguan (Yang Pass) was moved to the east of Guazhou (Melon Prefecture), eighty-five miles west of the city. There is Yunu Spring (Jade Maiden Spring) there, and people say that there are many falsehoods. Every year, Guazhou (Melon Prefecture) has to select one boy and one girl to worship the Qiu God (Pond God). If the year goes smoothly, there will be a good harvest. Otherwise, the crops will be damaged. Although the parents painfully separate from their children, they believe that their children have been selected by the gods, so they happily hold hands and sink into the Shenlong (Divine Dragon). After the prefect Zhang Xiaosong took office, he inquired about this matter. The locals told him. The governor said angrily: 'How can there be river monsters harming my people?' So he set up an altar and prepared sacrifices by the spring, saying: 'I hope to see the true form of the god, I want to personally offer sacrifices.' The god transformed into a dragon and came out of the water. The governor drew his bow and shot the dragon's throat, drew his sword and cut off the dragon's head, and personally sent it to the court for presentation. Emperor Xuanzong greatly appreciated it, bestowed the dragon's tongue, and named it Dragon Tongue. Zhang Xiaosong's deeds were recorded in the history books. One mile northwest of Guazhou (Melon Prefecture) city is a temple, with ancient trees and shady. There is a small fort in the temple, with corridors and halls set up on it, specific and subtle. Previously, there was a Shazhou (Sand Prefecture) judge, Zhang Qiu, who had reached the age of doing as he pleased, and lived here. Although he was not a learned man, he was also very attentive. Because after many years of war, few people studied, so he gathered later scholars to promote the great way. Heaven did not pity the survivors, and the people benefited from it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version Mount Shi Gao is located 256 li north of the prefecture. (Mount Shi Gao: A mountain located 256 li north of the prefecture) Gypsum is produced between Mount Wu and Mount Feng, emerging from the gaps in the rocks. (Mount Wu, Mount Feng: Names of two mountains) In the nineteenth year of the Kaihuang era, Mount Wu turned white. (Kaihuang: Reign era of Emperor Wen of Sui) Later verification proved this to be true, so seven Taoist priests, including Huangfu Decong, were sent to perform sacrifices and prayers. (Huangfu Decong: Name of a Taoist priest) From then on, it looked like a snow-covered peak from a distance. He Cang City is located 230 li northwest of the prefecture. (He Cang City: A city located 230 li northwest of the prefecture) In ancient times, it was where the military stored supplies. The Great Wall is located north of the prefecture, with a length of 63 li. It enters the desert directly to the west, and was selected and established during the Former Han dynasty. It enters the territory of Yizhou to the north. (Yizhou: Name of a prefecture) Dunhuang Records, one volume. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
