自古以来,中国文化中神仙人、妖魔鬼怪、魑魅魍魉等,身份互为交织,性格、职能等也互相置换,而且大多是由真人幻化而成。他们代表了人间的各种人物形貌与性格,做着与人极为相同的事情。人们在想象中,把他们的各种生活景象、人物关系、行为模式等给以演化,最后都终结于人类自身——人们制造了另一个与自身世界平行的虚幻空间。钟馗的形象,就是这样一种牵强附会出的形象,是一种充满矛盾心理的复合体。最早记载钟馗的,是《全唐诗》 Since ancient times, gods, demons and ghosts in Chinese culture have been interwoven with each other in their identities. Their characters and functions have also been replaced by each other, and most of them are made of human beings. They represent the various human figures and personalities in the world and are doing the same thing as people. In their imagination, people evolved their various scenes of life, relationships and patterns of behavior, ending with human beings themselves - people created another illusion of space parallel to their own world. The image of Zhong Kui is such a form of forced attachment that is a complex full of contradictory psychology. The earliest record Chungli, is “full Tang poetry”
