The third item is particularly important, that is, "nature is made by foreign teachers, and the source of mind is obtained from China". He is always traveling across mountains and rivers, expanding the inscriptions of past dynasties and accumulating a lot of calligraphy materials. In his study, in the yard, at the gate and even outside the toilet, he has stools and pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Whenever he thinks of a well-structured word, he immediately writes it on paper. When he practiced calligraphy, he thought hard and even forgot to eat and sleep. He has no other thoughts, so he naturally takes the method. Because he ponders calligraphy all the time, he can often get inspiration from nature. For example, one morning, Wang Xizhi and his son Wang Xianzhi took a boat tour of Shaoxing. When they arrived near Xianshui Village, they saw a flock of white geese waddling along the shore. Wang Xizhi was fascinated by it and learned the truth of calligraphy from some gestures of the goose. I want to buy it home. Wang Xizhi asked the Taoist priest nearby, hoping that the Taoist priest could sell him the goose. The Taoist priest said, "If the right army adults want it, please write a Taoist health book" Huang Ting Jing "for me! Wang Xizhi longed for geese and readily agreed to the conditions put forward by the Taoist priest. This is the story of "Wang Xizhi gave the White Goose Book". In a word, Wang Xizhi knows the law by goose.
Wang Xizhi's best calligraphy in his life is Preface to Lanting Collection. It was his middle-aged work, which was promoted by Mi Fei as the best running script in the world. He created a generation of calligraphy and did not wander at the feet of the ancients. He integrated all kinds of different brushstrokes of Qin and Han seal scripts from the Expo into the real cursive script, taking the natural history of calligraphy, bringing forth the new and making it endless.
In addition to Preface to Lanting Collection, there are other famous posts, such as official slave post, seventeen post, two thank-you post, orange post, menstruation post, quick snow clearing post, Lun, Huang Tingjing and so on.
