○宋大夫墨翟著書十篇號墨子。外治經典。內修道術。與儒家分塗。務尚儉約。頗毀孔子。世多學之。年八十二入山精思至道。有神人授以素書。合朱英丹。服之為地仙。乃述五行記著其事。隱居以避戰國（見列仙傳）。

Mo Di, a grand master of Song, composed a book in ten chapters entitled Mozi. Externally he mastered the classics, and internally he cultivated the arts of the Dao. He parted ways with the Confucians, striving to esteem frugality and economy, and severely disparaged Confucius. Many people in the world studied his teachings. At the age of eighty-two, he entered the mountains to contemplate the ultimate Way with concentrated thought. A divine being transmitted to him a silk-written book and compounded the Vermilion Blossom Elixir. Consuming it, he became an earthly immortal. He then related the Records of the Five Elements, writing down these matters, and lived in seclusion to avoid the turmoil of the Warring States (seen in the Liexian zhuan).
