中國的晉王朝有一個著名的歷史學者，他的名字叫做干寶，他再編集正式的歷史書時，發現了很多中國古代的一些書籍中，紀錄了許多無法用常理來解釋的一些事情，他就把這些故事也編輯成一本書，這本書的名字是(搜神記)。
這本書中有一個故事如下。
中國的三國時代是一個政治與經濟都非常混亂的時代，東吳王國與蜀漢王國和曹魏王國這三個王國都想要戰勝其他兩個王國並且統一整個中國。
東吳王國有一個公主，這個公主的名字叫做孫魯育，這個公主在一場政治鬥爭中被殺害，她的屍體被埋葬在一個叫做(石子岡)的地方，這個地方是當時一個很廣大的墓園。
這個公主有一個姪子叫做孫皓，孫皓後來成了東吳王國的國王。
孫皓成為國王後想起了這個已經死去多年的姑姑，他認為應該把這個姑姑的屍體遷葬回到自己家族的墓地。
但是由於他的姑姑已經死了好幾年，加上當時的時局非常動亂，東吳王國的皇宮中已經沒有人記得他的姑姑的正確埋葬地點。
皇宮中有幾個年紀很老的宮女對孫皓說，(石子岡)這個墓園太大了，我們真的記不得你的姑姑的正確埋葬地。我們只記得你的姑姑死的時候穿的衣服的樣式，那是一件質料與剪裁都很漂亮的衣服。
孫皓不知道應該怎樣找到他的姑姑的墳墓，他正在煩惱的時候，有一個跟他親近的宮女對他說。
我們認識兩個巫女，這兩個巫女有著可以跟靈魂溝通的能力，我們可以考慮找他們來幫忙。
孫皓實在想不出其他的辦法，他就抱著嘗試看看的心態找來這兩個巫女。
孫皓為了避免這兩個巫女串通來騙他，他將這兩個巫女在(石子岡)這個大墓園的兩旁，並且同時吩咐這兩個巫女開始施行法術。
過了好幾個小時之後，這兩個巫女分別來跟孫皓回報。
孫皓驚訝的發現這兩個巫女沒有一起謀劃討論卻有相同的看法與說法。
我們看到一個穿著白色衣服與紅色鞋子的女人，她的頭髮用一條綠色的帶子綁起來，她的年紀大概30幾歲，她邊走邊嘆氣，她走到一座墓園中的一座墳墓前並且在這座墳墓前停留的很久，突然間這個女人就消失了。
這兩個巫女分別對孫皓說了幾乎完全相同的話而且都明確的指向同一個墳墓。
孫皓很緊張又焦急，他立刻吩咐一些宮廷中的僕役把這座墳墓再次挖開，墳墓中的棺材被打開之後，孫皓透過尚未腐爛的衣服與鞋子確認這就是他的姑姑的屍體無誤。
句成語的直接翻譯的意思是沒有一起謀劃討論卻有相同的看法與說法。
這句成語被用來形容兩個人在事前未經商量的情況之下，這兩個人提出的意見竟完全相同且一致。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。
你聽過那些你覺得無法解釋的事情嗎?你相信人可以透過一些方式跟靈魂溝通嗎?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。

Although they had not planned or discussed

This blog was created to introduce Chinese
culture to international readers. For the sake of simplicity and ease of
understanding, traditional titles such as 'Emperor' and 'King' have been
simplified to 'King', and the names of the individuals in question are used
directly wherever possible. This is to facilitate translation, not to ensure
historical accuracy. For rigorous historical research, please refer to the
listed sources at the end of the text.
During the Jin dynasty in China, there was
a famous historian named Gan Bao. While compiling formal history books, he
discovered many ancient Chinese texts that recorded events defying common
sense. He compiled these stories into a book titled In Search of the
Supernatural.
One such story is as follows:
The Three Kingdoms period in China was a
time of great political and economic chaos. The kingdoms of Eastern Wu, Shu Han
and Cao Wei all sought to defeat each other and unify China.
In the Kingdom of Eastern Wu, there lived a
princess named Sun Luyu. She was murdered in a political struggle and buried in
a place called Shizigang, a vast cemetery at the time.
The princess had a nephew named Sun Hao who
later became king of Eastern Wu.
After becoming king, Sun Hao remembered his
aunt, who had died many years earlier, and decided that her body should be
moved back to the family cemetery.
However, as several years had passed since
her death and the times were turbulent, no one in the Eastern Wu palace
remembered her exact burial location.
Several elderly palace maids told Sun Hao,
'The Shizigang cemetery is too large. We cannot possibly remember your aunt's
exact burial place. We only remember the style of the clothes she wore when she
died. They were beautiful, both in material and cut.'
Sun Hao was troubled and unsure of how to
find his aunt's grave when a palace maid he knew well approached him. 'We know
two witches who can communicate with spirits. We could ask them for help.'
Unable to think of any other method, Sun
Hao decided to try his luck and approached the two witches.
To prevent them from conspiring to deceive
him, he positioned them on either side of the large Shizigang cemetery and
instructed them to begin their spells simultaneously.
Several hours later, the two witches
returned to report back to Sun Hao.
He was surprised to find that, although
they had not planned or discussed it together, these two individuals shared the
same views and opinions..
'We saw a woman dressed in white with red
shoes, her hair tied back with a green ribbon.' She appeared to be in her
thirties. She walked and sighed. She walked to a grave in the cemetery and
lingered there for a long time. Then, suddenly, the woman vanished.'
The two witches told Sun Hao almost
identical things and both pointed to the same grave.
Sun Hao was very nervous and anxious. He
immediately ordered some palace servants to dig up the tomb again. After
opening the coffin, Sun Hao confirmed through the intact clothes and shoes that
it was indeed his aunt's body.
The idiom literally translates as 'Although
they had not planned or discussed it together, these two individuals shared the
same views and opinions'.
It is used to describe two people who, without
consulting each other beforehand, express completely identical and consistent
opinions.
Have you ever experienced anything that you
found inexplicable?
Do you believe that people can communicate
with the souls of the dead using certain methods?
I hope this story gives you some new
insights.
