Li Bai is definitely not an otaku, but is he a martial arts master?

Beijing, February 9 (Reporter Shangguan Yun) "Shu Dao Difficulty" "Will Enter the Wine" ... Li Bai, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote many famous passages that have been passed down to this day. Some people commemorate Li Bai on February 8, believing that this day is his birthday; others hold different views.

Arguments aside, Li Bai does have a lot of cold knowledge. Some people think that he loves swordsmanship and is a martial arts master; some people say that he is a "tourism controller", and even some people think that he is a "Pisces", so he is more sentimental.

Is he a martial arts master?

Li Bai is known as a "poetry immortal" in the literary world, but he should not be a weak scholar. The New Book of Tang mentions that Li Bai was "happy to cross the line and fencing for Renxia".

Draft: Zhang Jianyuan

When he was young, Li Bai did practice swordplay. He said in the "Book with Han Jingzhou": "Since childhood, he has been a good warrior, has the ambition of the four directions, and practiced swordplay at the age of fifteen. ”

It is said that he once studied under Pei Min, who was known as the "first swordsman of the Tang Dynasty", and also wrote poems such as "Three Cups of Sword Dance autumn moon, suddenly chanting and si lian".

Therefore, many people have questioned: Li Bai, is not a martial arts master?

Scholar Zhang Guogang believes that Li Bai knows swordsmanship, but he is certainly not a martial arts master. Judging from the existing records, Pei Min's sword dance was an art at that time, which should not be counted as a martial art, "Swordplay is an art for the ancients." ”

Indeed, Li Bai himself recorded an experience in the poem: he had caused a little trouble before, and was almost beaten by the "cockfighters". At the critical moment, his friends helped him a lot, and finally he was able to get out of trouble.

Therefore, there are views that Li Bai is not a master in the martial arts world, otherwise he would not be so embarrassed.

Passionate about traveling?

Although he failed to become a martial arts master, Li Bai once went out of the circle with another characteristic, that is, "travel". When he was very young, he successively traveled to Jiangyou, Jiange and other places, and his knowledge increased accordingly.

Li Bai is definitely not an otaku, but is he a martial arts master?

In his twenties, Li Bai chose to "fight the sword to go to the country and resign his relatives to travel far", and since then, he has spent a considerable amount of time wandering. Looking at the "Tang and Song Dynasty Literature Chronicle Map", it can be seen that his footprints have traveled to Chongqing, Yueyang, Yangzhou, Wuhan, Nanyang and so on.

Regarding Li Bai's wandering experience, there was once a saying that "as far as you can go, almost half of China." ”

His circle of friends is also expanding. For example, Li Bai sailed east from Chang'an to the Yellow River. Later, in Luoyang, he met the poet Du Fu and roamed with him. Later, he met the poet Gao Shi, and the three of them traveled together, full of interest.

Zhang Guogang believes that Li Bai is indeed not an "otaku", and his roaming is related to a variety of factors such as visiting friends and seeking victories, and later he also relies on friends and fans to support him during his travels, which is relatively poor.

Poets who like to drink

Outside of travel, another impression label left by Li Bai may be that he likes to drink. During his lifetime, he wrote many popular poems, many of which were related to "wine".

For Li Bai, drink when the spring breeze is triumphant, drink when he is unhappy; drink when he is alone, and still drink when he travels. After getting married, his habit of drinking seemed to have not changed at all, and he often got drunk.

Li Bai is definitely not an otaku, but is he a martial arts master?

For example, in the poem "Gifting Nei", Li Bai once had a ridiculous remark, "Three hundred and sixty days, drunk as mud every day." Although she is Li Bai's wife, He Yi is too often his wife. ”

Li Bai, who loves to drink, seems to have a lot of wine, "cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle and having fun, he will have to drink three hundred cups." He also wrote in the "Song of Xiangyang": "Cormorant, parrot cup, thirty-six thousand days in a hundred years, three hundred cups in one day." "Drink often.

In fact, on the whole, Li Bai's life was not smooth sailing, and there were times when his career was not ambitious. But his literary achievements are famous all over the world, and many of his poems are familiar to people. For him, it was also a success. (End)
