Text/Xia Xinjian
Anyone who has the ambition to cultivate immortals must first choose a mount.
Or lion or lin or elephant or fish or dragon, or tiger or leopard or cow or eagle or peng. Yu ze rode from Zhang Guo lao also. Ah, the world's love of the donkey, the gourmet, the heavenly dragon meat, the underground donkey meat; the good poet, the drizzle rides through the sword gate; the good Taoist knows, riding the donkey upside down to look back; the painter knows, the donkey strolls along the YangYang Road; the famous scholar knows, the three voices are called the west wind whistle.
Meishan Qi Yunzi said: Zhang Guo rode a donkey upside down, the little goblin drove the fart; Li Taibai drizzled through the sword gate, and the old animals were quite good at chanting poetry. Donkey sex is straight and intelligent, and the gentleman does not love? Even better, mules are obtained by the hybridization of horses and donkeys, although they are slow in walking and more diligent and loyal than horses and donkeys. Or why didn't the immortals choose it as a mount? Gaima travels thousands of miles, donkeys chant poems of thousands of miles, and mules love herbivorous greed and are controlled by the people, day and night grinding and death between the troughs, the hands of slaves, not into the flow of the immortal path.
There are very few real donkeys and many mules in the world. Ho Zha, the world's good way is not divided, and the horse and donkey do not follow the way of nature. Thousands of miles are rare, and thousands of miles are also the aspirations of mortals. The donkey is the meaning of the immortal spirit, does not care about a thousand miles a day, pays attention to a thousand years and a day, and conforms to the way of the gods and immortals. Therefore, if you get a real donkey, you will not live up to the aspirations of cultivating immortal poetry in your life.
