"From the white dew in August to the cold dew in September, the wild goose has flapped its wings and flown south for more than a month." The wild goose is mainly the first to arrive in mid-autumn, and the one who arrives after the autumn season is the guest", the first to fly south is like the host who welcomes guests at home, and the wild goose that arrives in the cold dew season in late autumn is like the late guest.

The ancient book "One Board and One Eye" describes: "Chinese" clouds, birds into the sea as clams. The cover is cold and the wind is serious, and it mostly enters the sea. Turning into a clam, this flying object turns into a latent object. ”
The ancients observed that the autumn wind was getting tighter and colder, and the sea surface from north to south was freezing day by day, and the birds in the air were singing more and more rarely, while the clams in the sea were becoming more and more abundant, so they linked these two life phenomena - the concealment of birds and the prosperity of clams.
