The Tales of an Old Drunkard, or The Drunken Man's Talk, is a 13th-century Chinese story collection from the early Yuan dynasty (1271–1368). It was written by Luo Ye (羅燁), a Luling County (盧陵; modern Ji'an County) native who became a resident of the Southern Song dynasty capital Lin'an Prefecture (modern Hangzhou).

The only extant copy was discovered in Japan in the early 20th century.
