Huáng liáng yī mèng

〖Explanation〗The yellow rice has not yet been steamed, but I have already woken up from a good dream. The original metaphor is that life is illusory. Post-metaphor for the unattainable dream.

〖Source〗 Tang Dynasty Li Mi's "Zhongzhongji": "Lu Sheng was stretched out and collapsed, and he was lying in the mansion. Gu Luweng was beside him. The master had steamed the yellow beams and they were not yet cooked. They were the same as before. He jumped up and said: "How can I be dreaming?"

〖Example〗I met Master Zhengyangzi and became an immortal. ★The first fold of "Bamboo Leaf Boat" by Fan Zian of Yuan Dynasty
