The Man in the Ear is a short story in classical Chinese written by Pu Songling, a novelist in Qing Dynasty. The second story of Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio is mainly about Tan's insistence on keeping in good health, but he was scared crazy by a so-called villain. There's something hidden in this. First of all, it should be explained that the person in the ear is an illusory, abstract or non-existent thing.
Tan did not devote himself wholeheartedly to the practice. Although he closed his eyes and made a very attentive appearance, he often heard outside interference. Strangely, his results are not "slight". Even if "the cold and summer are endless and the journey lasts for several months", it is "if you achieve something." As the saying goes, the young monk recited the scriptures, which he didn't mean. Tan was scared crazy, mainly because he was distracted and absent-minded, which led to hallucinations, that is, "people are in the ear."
In fact, this "person in the ear" is himself. This is what people often say "possessed". After he became "possessed", he became possessed. This "fire" is just a diversion. Besides, haste makes waste. When the illusion appeared, he was lucky enough to think that "it is said that Dan will achieve great things, and he is secretly pleased, naturally listening to it every time." That's why it finally made him crazy.
The author is in the background of Sui.
