Dexiu resided in Jinhua during the Chunxi era and compiled the Shishi tongji. In recording Śākya[muni], he appended the Ci'en [tradition's] teaching of the three periods, and his account of the Buddha's lifetime conversion deeds was most cursory and sketchy. Furthermore, using the Wuyun tu, the Inscription on the Stone Pillar, and the Sanbao lu, which all record the Buddha's birth differently, he mingled them into the primary text of the Annals of the Buddha, greatly deviating from the proper form of historiography. His narration of contemporary events diverges in various ways from Xiu's text, merely adopting prolix and verbose language.
