Engelse titel: Investigations into deities

The Soushenji 搜神記 "Investigations into deities", also called Soushenlu 搜神錄, Soushen yiji 搜神異記 or Soushen zhuanji 搜神傳記, is a famous collection of phantastic stories compiled by the Eastern Jin period 東晉 (317-420) historian Gan Bao 干寶 (d. 336).
The original size of the Soushenji was 30 juan "scrolls", of which ten were lost until the Song period 宋 (960-1279). The received version has thus only 20 juan. It was probably revised and rearranged by the Ming period 明 (1368-1644) scholar Hu Yuanrui 胡元瑞.

The Soushenji records 464 stories (plus 34 fragments) of deities, immortals, souls and spirits, as well as numerous popular stories of strange events (bron China knowledge)
