Explanation: Looking for the mountain monk but not meeting him. The stone path leads into a red ravine, and the pine gate is covered with moss. There are traces of birds on the leisure steps, and no one is opening the Zen room. Peering into the window, I saw a white whisk, and dust hanging on the wall. It makes me sigh in vain, and I still linger when I want to go. Fragrant clouds rise all over the mountains, and flowers rain from the sky. It's good to be empty and happy, but now I hear the sadness of the green ape. Understand the worldly affairs, this place is leisurely.
There are two poems by Wang's family. Who can travel to the mountains? Ziming and Fuqiu. Overlapping ridges block the river, and peaks cross the river. Wangsheng faces Beifu, and the pool is clear and quiet. I'm here to feel inspired and beat the cannon to show off my treasures. Sweeping stones to wait for the returning moon, opening a pond to raise the cold current. Drunk wine makes you feel refreshed, and you don’t know the autumn because of the joy.
I have never known you before, but I know you are a talented person. The pavilions and buildings were built along the mountain, and the stone pools and platforms were carved out. In the middle of May, the scenery comes from the south. Count the pomegranate hairs, and the lotus blossoms will bloom for a foot. I hate that this is not the right time to cross the drunken golden barrier. My journey is worth the falling trees, the moon is bitter and the apes are sad. At the fifth watch of the night, Wu Yu gave him a Qiong cup. The wine is intoxicating and the four people are singing to each other. The sun rises in the distance and the sea is bright, and the cars are wandering around. More trips to Longtan, resting on rocks brushing the berry moss.
Waiting for the wine. The jade pot is made of green silk. How late is it to sell wine? The mountain flower smiled at me just as I was holding the cup. Why consider that under the east window, the wandering oriole is here again. The spring breeze and drunken guests are in perfect harmony today.

He is especially good at painting, with vertical and horizontal ups and downs, dripping with ink, and a mastery of freehand flowers. He is better at calligraphy, good at cursive writing, and has a lot of dots and paintings. He is as powerful as a rolling mat and has an unrivaled reputation. Those who have been called everyone since the Ming and Qing Dynasties deserve it. This axis gallops freely, like a galloping horse, scattering flowers all over the ground. There are no rules to be found, but its momentum is overwhelming, and it captures the beauty of nature. Yuan Zhonglang said that his "writing style is as bold and unrestrained as his poems, and his vigor and grace stand out, surpassing Wang Yayi and Wen Zhengming. Regardless of calligraphy, as for the god of calligraphy, he is the Sansheng of the Eight Methods of Cheng and the chivalrous man of the word forest." In terms of spiritual bearing, Ming Ming There are indeed not many Qing dynasties who can compare with him.
Ivy calligraphy is rarely spread among the people. This scroll was once collected by Mr. Zhu Qizhan and others. It is his pen. Those who know it should cherish it.
