Chronological Record of Lord Lao
This book briefly narrates the deeds of the Supreme Lord Laozi and the worship of him by emperors of successive dynasties in a chronological format. Its entire content is identical to the first volume of The Supreme Lord Laozi's Chronicle of the Primordial Origin, with only minor textual variations. It is evidently a collated and published version of the chronology extracted from that book by Li Zhidao.
