Zhiyong monk, born in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties, is the sixty-fourth grandson of Wang Xizhi, a book sage. He practices calligraphy very hard.
It is said that he has locked himself in the attic for 30 years. Why? Write! Pens are used up one by one, and worn pens are put in baskets. Finally, four baskets. So he buried these rotten pens in the backyard and formed a mound.
Huai Su monk is also a model of hard work. Because he is poor and can't afford to buy paper, he writes with banana leaves every day. Later, he picked more than 10,000 pieces of plantain Ye Quan, made a wooden tray, painted it with color, and practiced calligraphy on it. After a long time, the nib actually wore through the board. He wrote more bald pens than Zhiyong, and was later buried in a tomb called "Pen Tomb".
Zhong You was a great calligrapher in Wei Dynasty and the originator of regular script. He practices calligraphy very hard and writes in his sleep and dreams at night. How to write? Fingers are pens and quilts are paper. Day after day, I was cut in the quilt.
Sha Menghai, a famous calligrapher in modern times, is one of the two greatest calligraphers (the other is Qigong). Also very bookish. Why do you see it? When he sat idle, his fingers kept gesticulating. Where are they gesturing? On the knee. For a long time, my pants were cut.
The two have the same effect!
