Huai Su (737~799), a native of Lingling, Hunan Province, was a leading figure of coquettish calligraphers in the history of calligraphy. Originally from a noble family, he suddenly felt at home when he was a teenager. He converted to Buddhism and changed his words to hide the truth. History is called "Lingling Monk" or "Shichangsha". In his later years, he wrote scriptures at Baoyuan Temple in Chengdu, Sichuan, and died of rheumatism at the age of 62. Huai Su is as famous as Zhang Xu, another cursive writer in Tang Dynasty, and he is called "Zhang Diankuang" or "Drunk". Although he is a Buddhist, he is a heavy drinker, and when he is drunk, he will stay away from dragons and snakes. Huai Su's self-talk and self-talk posts leave behind magnificent works, giving people a heroic feeling of "a firm but gentle lingyun". His cursive pen is round and powerful, which makes it turn like a ring, unrestrained and smooth, and it is called "wild grass" in one go, just like Zhang Xu. Handed down works include thousands of words, autobiographical notes, Notre Dame notes, essays in books, notes on hiding truth, etc.
