At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there was a "Memory of Jiangnan" lyrics in Suzhou:
Suzhou is good, half a garden pavilion in the city. Several pieces of Taihu Lake (zú) 嵂 (lǜ), a new rise to the satin, the landscape from the qingling.
The city is half garden pavilions and half houses, and it is really a magnificent view to think about the grand situation at that time.
It is the garden that must have stones. Lakes and rocks, exquisite and dangerous. Stone or water, or against the wall, or push the door visible, or into the flower window, like a landscape painting, the brushstrokes are majestic and simple, the artistic conception is timeless and strange, making people wander endlessly.

Life: Pillow wave gargling
Lake stone is produced in Taihu Lake, and the best is the Xia Bay in Dongting West Mountain.
The stone is colored white, such as covered with residual snow, such as cage light yarn. There are also colored blue and black, such as ink stains, such as shade tree shadows.
Years and months, dripping water can still be worn steps, and the lake stone is impacted by the waves, I don't know tens of millions of years, embedded, piercing the eyes, not surprising, the strange thing is that it is exquisite and dangerous without axe chisel marks, it can be seen that nature is a good carver, this manpower can not reach it.
In ancient times, quarrymen were called "quarriers". Ji Cheng's "Garden Ye" said: "The collector carries a hammer into the deep water, and Du Qiqiao chisels it, runs through a huge rope, floats a large boat, and sets it out." "Three words and two words, it seems to be an understatement, but it is extremely difficult. The water is deep and turbulent, and quarrying is a danger; the stone sinking waves are high, and the stone is a danger; the mountain is long and the road is far, and the transportation of stones is another danger. Dangerous and dangerous, a huge boulder twists and turns, so that you can enter the royal palace or private garden, which consumes manpower, material and financial resources, which people dare not imagine.

The surface of this stone is full of depressions, varying in size and uneven, called "marbles nest", which is made of water rushing and full of wilderness interest.
This "marbles nest" can also be "fake". The skilled craftsmen of Taihu Lake take the dry stones on the mountain, chisel through the eyes, carve the bullet nests, and then put the stones in the rapids, under the impact of the waves, the traces of artificial axe chisels are erased, and over time, they are like naturally generated, and they can be chaotic.
There is a saying that "the garden has no water and does not live", if you add another sentence, it is "the garden has no stones and no ancient". These ugly Taihu stones are mostly used for garden stacking or decorative art.

Wind bone: leakage of wrinkles
The former character lake stone has four key points, one is "thin", the second is "leaky", the third is "transparent", and the fourth is "wrinkled".
"Thin" refers to the appearance of the clean, not vulgar and clumsy.
In a garden, old plums, pines, hedges, thin streams, winding paths, all are not clear and thin, thin is strange, and the charm comes out. The courtyard is standing lake stone, the stone is also thin, lonely, the wind and bones fall, as Zhu Liangzhi said: "There is no one to lean on, a wayward spirit." ”
"Leak" is embedded through the eye, the large and small holes of the Lake Stone, leaking and clever, not stagnant, in addition to light ventilation, can also leak scenery.
People at the edge of the stone, through the hole to see the flowers, the shadow is enough, subtle and euphemistic, quite a virtual window to see the wonderful.

"Penetrating", I think it is said that the lake stone hole is through, and there is an ethereal and gentle magic. It can also be explained by the words of Li Yu of the Qing Dynasty, "This leads to the other, and the other passes through here, if there is a road that is feasible."
Su Dongpo once got a stone, named "Small Cave Heaven", and the incense burner under the stone was fragrant and full of smoke. Why does the smoke come out? It is along the hole, from here to the other, and it is revealed.
Nowadays, there are also stone lovers, in the study, or tea room, offering a pint of lake stone, su ri guanzhi, such as between the spring stones, wandering and enjoying, leisurely and self-comfortable. If a small incense burner is placed in the middle of the wooden seat under the stone, the room is full of elegance, and the smoke cloud of the "small cave sky" on the eastern slope can be obtained.

As for "wrinkles", the folds of clothes are called "wrinkles", the wind crosses the water surface to push out layers of wrinkles called "wrinkles", and the texture of the lake stone layers is also known as "wrinkles". There are twists and turns in the wrinkles, there are layers, there are vicissitudes. Wrinkles are a clear proof that the lake stone has been hidden in the water for thousands of years.
Zhu Liangzhi said in the book "The Wind Flow of The Stone": "Water is the hand of the texture on the stone. Texture is the concealment of water. "Therefore, even if the stubborn stones come out of the water and stand on the dry land, they can still make people feel the ancient waves, the wind and waves, and even the quiet and lonely clouds and smoke."

The flower garden looks at the flowers, the eyes are clear, and the skin is seen.
The garden appreciates the stones, the meaning is ancient, and the appreciation is the bone phase.
Take guanyunfeng in the lingering garden, for example, the waist is tall and thin; the hollow piercing eyes, leaking also; the exquisite penetration, the transparent also; the texture is pleated, wrinkled also. The wind and bones fall, the wind flow is contained, "thin, leaky, transparent, wrinkled" four at the same time, is a good lake stone.
Into the painting: the stone is deep
There are many ancient people and stone lovers, and there are not a few people who write stone paintings.
Yuanren's lake stone, the lines are simple, there is not much ink, it looks like there is a kind of meaning of scattered mountains and forests.
Gu An painted bamboo stones, a few bushes of green stones, swaying in the air, bamboo under the standing lake stone, light ink, writing its shape and meaning, full of deep silence and long-distance feelings. A few other young shoots emerged from the stone edge, full of vitality, making people feel a harmonious spring feeling.
Ni Zhan has "Wuzhu Xiushi Diagram", Wuzhu is dependent on each other, green and beautiful, needless to say. The green shade of a fist of lake stone, the law is rough, the absurdity is naïve, and there is a kind of interest.

In the garden, the lake stone is paired with sycamore bamboo, which is stubborn and beautiful; with the plantain, it is deep and quiet.
Chen Hongshou of the Ming Dynasty once made a "Banana Forest Drinking Wine Map", painting the banana curtain sky, the lake stone is exquisite, graceful and dangerous, and the flowers and branches behind the stone are oblique and looming. A confucian monk sitting quietly drinking wine, the god is idle, the stone case in front of him is thick, and the ancient bronze ware is placed on it. At the front of the painting are two women, with beautiful makeup and elegant clothes, one holding a pot and one sitting on a green banana leaf, gently washing the chrysanthemums in the water. The picture is not dusty, extremely quiet. The wind blows the leaves, the flowers are scattered in an uproar, and the birds and finches are noisy, and everything cannot be heard or felt.
The banana forest lake stone is a painting and a common scenery in the garden. The gentleman who drank wine leisurely was Chen Hongshou himself, and also every Chinese literati who "did good lin xue and quan plaster".

Dieshan: Quiet as ancient
Suzhou garden stacked mountains, mostly using lake stones, cover because of its ancient show, exquisite kitsch.
Visiting the park many times, I have seen the lake stone rockery so far, the most tortuous and confused, no more than the lion forest.
Lion forest rockery, the path is swirling, the cave is dark, people are like eight arrays, and it is like walking a maze, trapped in it, "the old road forgets to go in and out, the new art is lost in the west and the east", there is no fun.
And the humble ancients are the most Huanxiu Mountain Villa.
Huanxiu Villa is located in Jingde Road, Suzhou, the garden is small and secluded, the attractions are concentrated, the pavilions are scattered, and the flowers and trees are intertwined.
The rockery is located in the east, covering an area of only half an acre, and there are thousands of rocks and valleys. In the meantime, there are several steps, steep cliffs, caves, flying beams in the sky, and the bottom of Bitan, which is far-reaching and quiet.
This mountain is said to be the work of Ge Yuliang during the Qianjia period.
Ge Yuliang Stacked Mountain, "with a large vertical stone as the bone", supplemented by "picking, hanging, pressing, stacking, spelling, hanging, inlaying, inlaying" method, the cave roof with large and small stone hook belt contact, so that the mountain stone is natural, not bad for a thousand years.
The ancient Stacked Mountains are all proficient in painting theory, and the same is true of Ge Yuliang.
Huanxiu Mountain Villa's false peaks are beautiful and ancient, the caves are exquisite, like natural pictures, no wonder Chen Congzhou Zanyu said: "The painter boldly drops ink, carefully cleans up, cirrus clouds freely, zhen zi fengsheng, Xifu painting book, its brushwork and song and Yuan landscape paintings are long." ”
Travel around Xiu Mountain Villa, love is the pool of autumn water and a room mountain. The lake stone cave is deep and beautiful, the lower is adjacent to the clear pond, the mountains and rivers are dependent on each other, gentle and majestic coexist, the wind and the wind coexist, leisurely! Beautiful! Show off! Magnificent!
"Out of the storm, let him pool deep", Taihu Stone, out of the lake, show in the garden, and elegant in painting. A cold posture, once made the autumn bone of the autumn mountain, and now a gentleman of the wind and currents.
