One way is to first identify the allusion. Look for any references that seem out of the ordinary or that might be based on historical, literary, or cultural knowledge. For example, if a character in a story mentions 'Pandora's box', that's an allusion. Then, consider the context in which it's used. Is it to warn about the consequences of curiosity, like in the original Pandora story? Another approach is to research the origin of the allusion if you're not familiar with it. This can help you understand how it adds depth and meaning to the story.
Common types of reading allusion in story include religious allusions. For instance, an allusion to the Garden of Eden can bring in ideas of innocence, temptation, and the fall from grace. There are also cultural allusions. If a story set in a particular country alludes to a local folk tale, it helps to create a sense of place and cultural identity. And then there are scientific allusions. When a story mentions Einstein's theory of relativity in a context about time and space, it gives a scientific flavor to the narrative.
The allusion of mulberry and Zi originated from the Book of Songs, Xiaoya, Xiaobian: " Wei Sang and Zi must be respectful."

The tricky allusion was referring to the Ming Dynasty novelist Wu Jingzi's work, The Scholars. In this novel, there was a story about a man who made cat meat into a meat patty to deceive others. When he was discovered, he was called a cat fetter. This term was later used to describe something that seemed reasonable but was actually deceptive. For example, when you buy a cheap phone and find that the performance of the phone is not as good as promised by the merchant, it can be said that the merchant's behavior is fishy. In short, the story of the cat and the mouse originated from the Scholar's Unofficial History and was used to describe deceptive things.
Resurrection referred to the resurrection of something that had died. There were many allusions: 1. [The legendary Iron Guai Li: Iron Guai Li's original name was Li Xuan.

Li Xuan returned from his mental forgetfulness without a body. His soul had nowhere to go. Coincidentally, there was a fresh corpse of a starving beggar nearby, so he attached his soul to it. After returning to life, Li Xuan was unkempt, bare-chested, and limping. He sprayed immortal water at the bamboo pole used by the beggar to turn it into an iron staff, which was later called the Iron Guaili. 2.

Lady Qi told her father to push her but was not taken seriously. The Qi family was beaten to death by a big man during childbirth. After Li Mou failed the roll, he learned that his wife had died and rushed home. On the way, he met Qi Shi. Qi Shi said that he could be resurrected and asked Li Mou to ask Mr. Tian. Mister Tian is an immortal official of the Heaven Realm. I beg Mister Tian to uphold justice. After investigation, it was found that the person who killed the Qi family was a raping prince of the Western Han Dynasty, Wu, whose former residence was the governor's residence. Mr. Tian sentenced Wu to be sent to the Celestial Dynasty for punishment. Although Qi still had thirty-two years to live, her corpse had already rotted. A local god proposed the method of reincarnation. He used the body of a recently dead woman in his jurisdiction who looked similar to Qi to resurrect Qi's soul.

Later, Liu Qi died and Liu Bei led the Jingzhou Mu to occupy Jingzhou for a long time. When Liu Bei had just entered Jingzhou, he had used Liu Qi's name to achieve the goal of occupying Jingzhou for a long time. - The Shepherd Boy ascended the throne to warn the King of Chu: After Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled against the tyranny of the King of Qin, Xiang Liang, the son of a famous general of the State of Chu, discussed the election of the King of Chu in Xuecheng.
