《五代史闕文》：梁開平初，潞州行營使李思安奏：函關縣穰鄉民伐樹，樹仆，自分為二，中有六字如左書，云「天十四載石進」，梁帝藏於武庫，時莫詳其義。 Lost Texts of the History of the Five Dynasties: Early in Liang's Kaiping era, Luzhou field commissioner Li Si'an reported that in Rang township, Hanguan County, villagers felled a tree that split in two as it fell. Inside were six characters reading, "Heaven's fourteenth year, Stone advances." The Liang emperor placed it in the armory, and no one then understood its meaning.
