Materia Medica:
Go to the mother/family connection/blow blood grass;
Weeping beads / moon / broken intestine flowers.
Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, the government school has been good at writing books, Yi Bingshou, Zeng Guofan, Zhao Zhiqian, He Shaoji, etc., this is a well-known old thing, but there are also good books in Xinglin Huatuo, but it is a story that is often ignored by people. Li Shizhen, who was born in a medical family, is talented and intelligent, and has been a pair of prodigies since he was a child, but he has studied the materia medica all his life, and the couplets written by him are very few.
Today, I heard that the ancient Guangxiang people in Hong Kong, young court training, deeply influenced by traditional Chinese medicine and the law, decades and medicine and the union, all have the origin of the self-prohibited, the book "Chinese medicine fun union" embellished with Chinese medicine name into a couplet, a series of compilations is more than 200 pairs, not called strange, but also when half a lifetime of energy gathered, the depth of the skill is rarely comparable.
Mr. Gu Guangxiang's mother is exemplary, his family background is praiseworthy, Dr. Li Dichang was born in Panyu, Guangdong Province in 1927, and has worked in a hospital in Hainan for many years. His mother's union: "Go to the mother's house and blow the blood grass; The joint language directly describes the grief of the filial son, and the words are tearful, heartfelt, and shocking.
Liu Xian's "Wenxin Carving Dragon" cloud: "The husband is moved by the emotion and resigns, and the viewer wears the text to enter the love, and seeks the source along the waves, although it is secluded, it will be revealed." "The feelings are in the heart, and the words are appropriate, as if they were written in an instant. Read carefully, the original real non-floating couplet is composed of the names of the six flavors of traditional Chinese medicine, "go to the mother" to "hang the beads", "Jialian" to "Yueji", "blow blood grass" to "broken intestine flower", in which the words are flat and opposite, the words are in harmony with the virtual and the real, the structure and rhythm are beating, and the upper and lower couplets are extremely worked, and the semantics are related.
It can be seen that the author has a surging feeling before starting to write the couplet, "emotional and resigned", the thinking of the writer has always wandered in the emotional atmosphere of missing his mother, and the rhetoric in the daily Compendium of Materia Medica's medicinal names and terms will naturally pass through here, and the words between the lines are both unique in ingenuity, and the words are sad and sorrowful, and the affectionate and sincere are natural. It is indeed particularly rare that the series can have such a wonderful environment of colorful clouds chasing the moon and artistic conception.
It is reported that in addition to this couplet, the author also embellished more than 200 couplets with the names of Chinese herbal medicines, followed by the medicinal properties and efficacy of the names of the Chinese medicines, etc., and wrote "Materia Medica". From the point of view of couplet rhetoric alone, he is so skillful in using the figure of speech of "Liepin" that he can be called a master of "Liepinlianjia" in today's Lianjie.
The unique rhetorical technique of "Liepin" is to list more than three things, and like Mr. Gu Guangxiang's couplet, it is often separated by other words, which needs to be elaborate to enhance the interest of the couplet. It seems that the vocabulary of the group is very simple, but in fact, it is not easy to be listed as a member of the Federation of Law and Trade Unions, and it is even more difficult to become a passionate Yalian. In the fall of 2018, I also wrote a column for the opening of the "Yu Dequan Art Museum", which listed the name of the word brand, which attracted many curious and praised the audience at that time, but I remember that I really spent many days of brains off the stage.
Regarding the rhetoric of "columns", the famous lianjia Zou Zongde called it "string group", and in the work of "Couplet Creation", it is deeply subdivided into five categories, or adding words, or mixing, or homophony, all of which are new moves, which not only lose the essence of the rhetoric of columns, but also show the ingenuity and rhetoric of the couplet.
