Unlike the neat and tidy regular script of the later Tang dynasty, these works possess a wild, powerful, and simple style. They are also popular as models for copies at modern calligraphy exhibitions. Twenty outstanding pieces of calligraphy from the Zōzō-ki (Records of the Statues of the Buddha) have been selected and are known as the "Twenty Pieces of Longmen Calligraphy." This series is divided into two volumes and features ten pieces, including classic masterpieces such as "Niu Zōzō-ki" and "Shiping Gong Zōzō-ki," as well as "Zheng Changyou Zōzō-ki," beloved for its childish style.
