Casual Feeling:
This article is so difficult to read, the new words have agreed to catch up with the market, and they have formed a pile here...
However, this one is a veritable benchmark for depicting beauty. Look at how many familiar words and phrases there are - hands like soft hands, skin like gelatin, smiling and smiling, beautiful eyes... The words and phrases of the ancients have a kind of magic, that is, you don't necessarily know what it is, but you inexplicably feel the message it wants to convey, that is, you feel beautiful. The so-called transmission of God, that's it! What a highest level of description.
Wait one by one to understand, maybe it will spoil this beauty a little - the hand is like a soft body can still imagine, but the skin is like gelatin?? Teeth like a rhinoceros are also quite cute, but collars like cockroaches?? Such a strange and ingenious metaphor, now looking at it, is inevitably a bit difficult to say. However, at that time, these natural things were closely related to daily life, and people saw and experienced the beauty of them from time to time, and the associations arising from them were perhaps the most natural thing.
It's hard to recreate such a word today. The world below the branches and leaves, those thin and curved tentacles, the white and neat melon seeds, the tender new shoots... Compared with the world of red and green flowers, it is no longer so eye-catching, although the vividness and vividness have always been there.
The beauty of Zhuang Jiang must also have a twilight time. Fortunately, her former figure, her charm, has been sealed by time because of a poetic pen.
