Memorize All of Li Bai's poems and cross over to him
Can you defeat him to become a generation of poetry immortals?
This seems like a brain-opening question
In fact, it is not simple to investigate in detail
The problem is long
It can be split slightly
Let's assume
A modern aspiring young man aged 20 - Zhang San
It took three months
I have memorized all of Li Bai's poems
And traveled to the year when Li Bai was born
so
Can he rely on these known advantages
Defeat Li Bai with poems written by Li Bai
Won the title of Poetry Immortal?
701 AD
At this time, Li Bai
Just came out of the womb
And Zhang San, a crosser who memorized more than a thousand poems by Li Bai
Already won at the starting line
Just wait for an opportunity to publish poems in advance
Through Li Bai's poems, he can enter the top circle of Tang Poetry
Rewrite history

Saying goes
All roads lead to Rome
In ancient times, I wanted to spread poetry
There are many ways to go
No background, no money, no connections
Then the option left to the three no poets Zhang San
There are only two -
Street chants and graffiti
If there is social
You can chant poems directly in crowded places
By word of mouth from the common people
Produce unexpected effects
The other is graffiti, which is called the inscription wall
Due to the heavy traffic, it is adrift
Poets go to every attraction
I habitually want to keep some souvenirs
XX Pavilion, XX Floor
It is a place that poets would often visit
And
First come, first served
If it comes slowly
Maybe look at someone else's literary poetry
I didn't dare to write
The previous song is Cui Hao's "Yellow Crane Tower"
The latter song is Li Bai's "Yellow Crane Tower Sends Meng Haoran to the Guangling Tomb"
/
Besides
Coaching inns, hotels
There will also be a special place to make rooms for inscription poems (inscription boards, pillars)
Let the poet play to the fullest
Later, every time I went to a station
Enjoy the other poems in the station first
It became a habit of many poets
That's how poetry spreads
Bai Juyi went to a station every time
I'll take a few laps first
See if there are any poems left by Yoshiyoshi Motoki
Every time you arrive at the pavilion, get off your horse first, and follow the wall around the pillar to find Junshi.
- "Blue Bridge Ekimi Yuanjiu Poem"
Then again
Zhang San worked tirelessly
Run all over the scenic spots to punch in + post office inscription poems
Finally from a nameless newcomer
Mixed up the dot head
Because the name is really eye-catching
Zhang San relied on the contrast between literary style and name
It was very impressive
More and more people learned about him and wanted to make friends with him
At this time
Zhang San unlocked another way to send poetry
Circle of friends assists
Friends would meet at poetry meetings and read poems
They also send poems to each other
Send out the poem
Friends will share with friends to enjoy together
The more famous
The faster the poem spreads
Li Bai wrote the famous "Gift to Wang Lun"
Everybody was reading it
You may think that Wang Lun is Li Bai's life-and-death friend
Li Bai was able to write such a sentence
But in fact, Wang Lunjiu looked up to Li Bai's name, and the star chasing was successful
But these plots
They will all be robbed by Zhang San
Zhang San relied on Li Bai's poems
Everyone knows what they know
Even the capital has spread the word of flowers
It also reached Tang Xuanzong's ears
Zhang San unlocked another way to send poems
Poetry at the behest of the order
The owner offers the theme of poetry
The poet is responsible for writing creative verses
It's like Party A and Party B of that era
When writing poetry
There will also be someone to record it
After writing it, naturally some people will publicize it
After that
Zhang San was completely famous in the world
Zhang San, who is red all over the country
Self-feeling distance to achieve the achievement of the poetry immortal
It's not far away
But he never expected it
someday
I received a letter from Li Bai, the main lord
We see Li Bai's poems
It took more than a thousand years to pass it on to modern times
In the process of this circulation
It will inevitably be modified by others
Just like everyone knows
Li Bai's "Will Enter the Wine"
There are actually many versions
The textbook version that is well known to the public
It is the Song Ben that is used
But there is another version in the manuscript unearthed in Dunhuang
It's called "Zūn Void"
It is known in the poem: Dan Qiusheng, Cen Fuzi and Li Bai drink together
"Born I am useful" and "Born to be handsome"
Like
"Please listen to me" and "Please pour your ear for me"
"The ancient sages are lonely" and "the ancient sages are dead"
Some scholars believe
The "Xi XuanKong" is the closest surviving document to the original appearance of Li Baishi
That said
It is also under continuous study and verification
For now
Or uniformly adopt the Song Ben
That is, the textbook version
No drama
There was no drama at all
But those who know Li Bai's life experience
We all know that this is simply not possible
Because
For the record
Li Bai had entrusted his hand set to others three times
Ask someone to help organize the compilation
762 AD
Li Bai was on his deathbed
The last time he entrusted the set of hands to his uncle Li Yangbing
Li Yangbing lived up to his trust
It was compiled into ten volumes of the Caotang Collection
Has it been handed down?
No
Even because of the war
The "Caotang Collection" has long been ten or ten
So
Even Zhang San
Memorize all the more than a thousand poems that Li Bai has passed down to the present
It was also impossible to defeat Li Bai, who was completely bodyd
We ended up underestimating him
The romantic poet who "embroidered his mouth and spit out, he was half a Sheng Tang"
For various reasons
It can only show a part of his literary style to modern people
But even so
It has also made countless people admire and impress
And he has so much more to offer
It is worth exploring and studying in the world
