In the past, it was thought that it was written by Yu and Boyi, but it was not credible because it was recorded by Zhou and Qin people. Modern China scholars generally believe that Shan Hai Jing was not written in a short time, nor was it written by one person. It was written by people from the early Warring States to Chu, Bashu, Dong, Qi and other places in the early Han Dynasty, and was not compiled into a book until the Western Han Dynasty. Many may come from oral legends. The earliest edition of Shan Hai Jing was published by Liu Xiang and Liu Xin in the Western Han Dynasty. Guo Pu in Jin Dynasty annotated Shan Hai Jing, and Bi Yuan and Shan Hai Jing Zhu in Qing Dynasty also made textual research annotations. Liu Xin (the earliest editor): (about 53- 23 BC) a scholar of classical Chinese classics, a bibliographer and an astronomer at the end of the Western Han Dynasty. Zi Zijun, later renamed Xiu, the word Ying Shu. Pei (now Pei County, Jiangsu Province) was born. The son of Liu Xiang, the grandson of Jiao Liu V, and the king of Chu Yuan in the Han Dynasty. When he became emperor, he was Huang Menlang. He Zhongping received a letter from his father's general school to make a biography for six schools. After Liu Xiang's death, Liu Xin was reinstated as a captain. Emperor Ai ascended the throne, and Wang Mang recommended him as a surname doctor, a surname, and a doctor of Guanglu. Following in his father's footsteps, he wrote Seven Views, which is the first book classification catalogue in China. Some people suggested that scholars should be established for ancient classics such as Zuo Zhuan, Shi Mao and Wen Gu Shangshu, but Dr. Jin Wen opposed them. He became the satrap of Hanoi, Wuyuan and Zhuo Jun because he offended the ruling minister. Wang mang's new deal, tired of being an official and returning to Jing, sealed the red and rested, and became a national teacher. At the end of the Emperor (23), Wang Mang was killed and committed suicide. The Ming Dynasty compiled The Collection of Ivanx Liu. Liu Xin's appearance in Shan Hai Jing was during the Jianping period of Emperor Ai of Han Dynasty (the first 6-5 years).
