Let’s talk about Liaozhai at the beginning, I scared all the fans on the Internet to death

Chapter 158: One day the great roc rose with the wind and soared ninety thousand miles. (Please subscribe)
"He was also born in Kyrgyzstan, and moved back to Shu when he was 5 years old. When he was a boy, he also liked learning swordsmanship, poetry, and wrote a lot of poems."

"Wait a minute, Teacher Jiang Ning, you said Li Bai wrote a lot of poems?"

"Correct."

"But why didn't you mention the poems he wrote before?"

"The main thing is that there are too many, and I don't know which one is better."

"Why don't you tell us one by one from his life experience."

"That's fine too."

nodded.

Jiang Ning thought about it for a while, and then said: "Let's start with Li Bai's trip to Jiangnan when he was young. At that time, Li Bai was in his early 20s, and he was preparing to leave Shu and travel to various places in Jiangnan. Firstly, he would gain more knowledge, and secondly, Paying homage to dignitaries. Along the way, Li Bai saw many scenery. At the same time, he also wrote many poems. One of them is relatively simple, you can listen to it."

talking.

Jiang Ning then recited Li Bai's first poem, "Silent Night Thoughts."

The bright moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground.Looking up at the bright moon, bowing your head and thinking about your hometown.

The poem is very simple.

There is almost no need for explanation. Everyone knows as soon as they hear it that this is a homesick poem.

It's just different from the previous life.

It is also different from the previous life where everyone knew Li Bai's name.

Regarding this poem, everyone said: "It's okay, but it's a little too simple."

"Well, the level of writing poetry cannot be said to be too bad, but it can only be said to be average."

Many people have learned countless good poems since childhood.

When people read this poem, they didn’t think it was anything out of the ordinary.

For this.

Jiang Ning didn't explain either.

There is no point in explaining this kind of thing.

in particular.

When the poet was not particularly famous or recognized by others.

No matter how you say this poem is awesome, it’s useless.

Although he wanted to say it.

The simpler the poem, the more difficult it is to write.

But this kind of thing is really hard to say.

There are times when martial arts practice reaches its highest level, but at this point, if you try to describe it, you don’t know how to write about it.

Because when you reach the highest level, everything returns to its original nature, looking ordinary and nothing extraordinary.

"Hey, I thought Li Bai was very good at writing poems, that's all."

"Teacher Jiang Ning, the other version of Li Bai is not very good either."

The crowd sighed.

They felt that the last character Li Bai taught by Teacher Jiang Ning today was a bit out of standard.

They didn't think Li Bai was so great, nor did they think his poems were good.

Jiang Ning smiled and continued: "Then let's play one more song."

[Crossing far outside the gate of Jingmen, traveling from the state of Chu.

The mountains follow Hirano, and the river flows into the great wasteland.

Flying under the moon, Yunsheng Jiehai Tower.

I still pity the water in my hometown, and I will see you off in a boat for thousands of miles. 】

"This poem is called "Farewell at the Jingmen Gate", and it is Li Bai's poem to say goodbye to his relatives and friends in his hometown."

Different from the previous song "Quiet Night Thoughts".

The appearance of this song "Farewell at Crossing Jingmen" made many netizens who had complained about it shine in the eyes.

"Hey, this poem is okay."

"The mountains end with the plains, and the rivers flow into the wilderness. Holy shit, it's not only eloquent and smooth, but also very picturesque."

"It's very poetic. It seems that this Li Bai is a bit extraordinary."

If Jiang Ning had only talked about Li Bai's gloomy life before, there were even some jokes about his two marriages.

But Li Bai's real shining point was not his official failure or his two marriages, but his extreme romantic thoughts.

He incorporated this thought into poetry.

Just like Li Bai now.

Even if he is still only in his 20s.

Even if he had just left Shu.

But he has shown the utmost poetry.

"Any more, any more?"

People kept asking in the live broadcast room.

"some."

Jiang Ning continued: "For example, his "Looking at Tianmen Mountain"."

[The gate of heaven interrupts the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flows eastward to this point.

The green mountains on both sides of the strait stand out from each other, and the lone sail comes from the sun. 】

And his "Mount Emei Moon Song".

[The half-autumn moon of Emei Mountain casts its shadow into the water of Pingqiang River.

The clear stream flows towards the Three Gorges at night, and I miss you and go down to Yuzhou without seeing you]

There is also his "Listening to the Flute in Luo City on a Spring Night".

[The sound of someone's jade flute flies silently, spreading into the spring breeze and filling Luo City.

Hearing the broken willows in this nocturne, who can't forget the love of hometown】

in one breath.

Jiang Ning read out three poems.

Three poems, all of a sudden everyone was confused.

"It seems that Li Bai is indeed very talented."

"These poems, even if they were placed in the Tang Dynasty, would still be of first-class standard."

"Well, no wonder he was attracted by the daughter of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. If you were an ordinary person, it would be difficult for you to get married."

Suddenly, everyone's impression of Li Bai changed greatly.

Yes.

All these are first-rate poems.

Even if he is married into a wife, it seems that it is not Li Bai's shortcoming.

……

"Everyone, what's your impression of Li Bai now?"

"I feel like Li Bai has some unappreciated talents."

"And then, don't you think he likes to brag?"

"Eating soft rice also depends on your strength. Like us, we probably won't even be able to eat soft rice."

Jiang Ning suddenly became happy.

have to.

It seems that everyone's impression of Li Bai has changed a lot.

However, Jiang Ning said: "These are just ordinary poems in a series of Li Bai's works."

"Is this normal?"

Everyone was stunned: "The level of this poem is very good, it can reach the first-class level of the Tang Dynasty. And the level of several poems is so high, it is also very powerful. I guess, if this guy didn't join the Yongwang camp later, maybe This guy is so well-known that we had to memorize a poem or two by him when we were kids."

Jiang Ning did not argue much and continued: "After coming to Jiangnan, Li Bai visited many high-ranking officials. For example, Li Yong was mentioned before. The situation at that time was actually like this. The fledgling Li Bai really wanted to be appreciated by others. So, When he visited Li Yong, he talked eloquently from time to time and said some very strange and attention-grabbing words. Naturally, he was not appreciated by Li Yong, and even Li Yong looked down on Li Bai. Before leaving At that time, Li Bai wrote a poem in response to Li Yong. This poem is called Shang Li Yong."

[The big roc rises with the same wind in one day and soars up to [-] li.

If the wind breaks down, it will still be able to shake the water.

At that time, when people saw my constant tune, they all sneered when they heard Yu's big words.

Xuan's father can still be afraid of future generations, and his husband should not be young. 】

It still means the same thing.

Jiang Ning has told this version of the story before.

but.

Say it again.Or a version with this poem added.

The whole story seems completely different.

"One day the big roc rises with the wind and soars ninety thousand miles... Lying on the grass, this poem?"

"Nima, this poem is too grand and heroic."

Everyone almost couldn't believe it.

Because before.

Under Jiang Ning’s explanation.

Everyone preconceptionally thinks that Li Bai is a very flamboyant, high-profile person who also likes to be an official.

Although Jiang Ning has always emphasized that he has certain talents.

But they didn't see this talent either.

Even the first few songs.

Although it is also well written.

According to many netizens, this level has reached the level of the first-class poets of the Tang Dynasty.

But there are really too many poets in the Tang Dynasty.

There are too many even first-class poets.

So even if there is another Li Bai, it doesn't matter.

At least not to the point of shock.

But now.

This song "Shang Li Yong".

They were shocked.

They were so shocked that just for a moment, all their previous stereotypes about Li Bai were broken.

"Well, with this poem, Li Bai surpasses the average poets of the Tang Dynasty. I now think that Li Bai's level is a little above the first class."

"Well, such a heroic poem, even compared to others, is excellent."

"It's just that the meaning of the question is a little bit off, but I actually like Li Bai's personality."

What is a double standard?
That's it.

Before, they kept talking about Li Bai.

As soon as the song "Shang Li Yong" appeared, many netizens changed their prejudices one after another.

"Hahaha, I also like Li Bai's personality. As Li Bai said, I just speak strangely, but you don't have to sneer. Besides, I am so young. Even Confucius said that the next generation is to be feared. Maybe in a few decades After that, I’ll be even better than you.”

As soon as one poem appeared, the comments from netizens immediately flipped.

Jiang Ning smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Ning knew this phenomenon all too well.

If we just talk about Li Bai's life, he is indeed a little depressed.

But life is not summarized like this, and we can fully understand his life.

In Li Bai's series of depressing lives.

Li Bai's extremely romantic poems are just like the stars in the night, so bright.

……

"Once, Li Bai went to visit the Yellow Crane Tower."

Jiang Ning continued: "The Yellow Crane Tower is one of the three famous towers in the south of the Yangtze River. It was very famous at the time. Precisely because it was so famous, many talented people in the past dynasties wrote poems on it. Li Bai also went to the Yellow Crane Tower at that time. , along the way, he appreciated the poems left by many poets. One of them, "Yellow Crane Tower" written by Cui Hao, amazed Li Bai. "

"The very talented Li Bai wanted to challenge Cui Hao. So he also prepared to write a poem. However, after much deliberation, he could not come up with a poem that could compare with "Yellow Crane Tower". In the end, I was really depressed. Li Bai directly wrote a limerick, smashing the Yellow Crane Tower with one punch, and knocking over the Parrot Island with one kick. The scenery in front of me was unstoppable, and Cui Hao wrote a poem on it."

Put it this way.

All the fans in the live broadcast room were confused again.

"Teacher Jiang Ning, why has Li Bai changed into two again?"

"Yes, I thought he was a first-rate poet in the Tang Dynasty before, but now I see that he has become a second-rate poet."

"Well, this limerick suddenly brought down Li Bai's coolness."

Everyone complained again.

If it hadn't been for Li Bai's slightly changed view before.

Maybe, everyone will start to think that there is something wrong with Li Bai's brain again.

But Jiang Ning still smiled and said: "It's nothing to write limericks. It's normal to write a few limericks occasionally, and it's just fun for everyone. However, although I couldn't write a poem better than "Yellow Crane Tower" at that time. But when I go back After that, Li Bai always remembered this. Finally, one day when Li Bai climbed to Jinling, he suddenly got inspiration and wrote a poem comparable to "Yellow Crane Tower". This poem is called "Climbing Jinling Phoenix" tower"."

[Phoenix swims on Phoenix Terrace, Phoenix goes to Taikong and the river flows by itself.

Wu Gong flowers and grass buried in the path, Jin Dynasty clothing crown into an ancient hill.

Three mountains and half outside the blue sky, the second water divides Bailuzhou.

It is always because the floating clouds can cover the sun, and the absence of Chang'an makes people worry. 】

This is a seven-character poem.

Seven-character rhymed poetry is different from seven-character quatrains.

Seven-character quatrains generally have only four lines, while seven-character rhymed poems generally have eight lines.

This is not the most important thing.

Most importantly.

Seven-character rhymed poetry originated from Yuefu poetry in the Southern Dynasties. It has strict rhythm and duality.

The seven-character quatrains do not pay special attention to rhythm, format, and antithesis.

So there are many good poets.

But there aren’t many who can write the Seven Rhymes well.

The classic "Yellow Crane Tower" is not only a classic in itself, but also because it is a Qilu.

Simultaneously.

Also because this poem is so well written and so famous.

Therefore, among the [-] Tang poems, this poem is also the first one among the seven-rhythm poems, and is also called the first of the seven-rhythms.

of course.

This is somewhat different from the Seventh Law.

The best of the seven rules is the most awesome.

The meaning of the first of the seven laws is the representative, the boss, and the most famous.

"This seven-character poem "The Lawyer" is truly superb."

"It's absolutely amazing, I don't even know how to evaluate it."

"Well, it's more than one level higher than the previous songs."

Everyone in the live broadcast room has studied poetry since childhood.

Even if I don’t particularly understand poetry, I still have some insights.

Simultaneously.

There are also some people who have done some research on poetry.

They just take a look.

Then you know how extraordinary this poem is.

This poem not only depicts the scenery in a very graphic way, but also associates these beautiful scenery with history, and has a far-reaching artistic conception.

But that's not all.

The poet combines history with the present to express the poet's emotions.

It can be said.

No one knows what the song "Yellow Crane Tower" is like.

But this song "Ascending the Phoenix Terrace of Jinling" surpassed any seven-melody song they had learned before.

"Who is that? Is there a poetry expert? Can you explain it?"

"The explanation is easy. It means that Li Bai climbed to the Phoenix Terrace and saw the beautiful scenery everywhere. Then he thought of how many royal families were buried and how many palaces were abandoned near the Phoenix Terrace in history. Finally, Li Bai sighed , Why are there always treacherous ministers in this court? Wouldn’t it be better if we could see all the beautiful scenery at a glance, just like climbing the Phoenix Tower?"

"Sister, your explanation has no sense of beauty at all."

"I'll just translate it, you still think I'm Li Bai."

"Okay then, tell me, what is the level of this song "Ascending the Phoenix Terrace of Jinling"? Is it first-class, or above it?"

"Not first-class, not above first-class."

"What level is that?"

“Excellent quality!!!”

The netizen said very firmly.
