Huai Su is an outstanding calligrapher in the history of China. His cursive script is called "Crazy Grass". His pen is round and powerful, which makes it rotate like a ring, unrestrained and smooth, and has a far-reaching influence on future generations.
Huai Su was smart and studious since childhood. He came straight to the point in his autobiography. He said, "Huai Su lives in Changsha, a young Buddhist. After Zen, the style of writing was quite good. " His spirit of studying hard and practicing hard is amazing.
Because he couldn't afford to buy paper, Huai Su found a board and a disc and painted it with white paint to write. Later, Huai Su thought the lacquer board was smooth and not easy to ink, so he planted more than 10,000 plantains on a wasteland near the temple.
When the banana grew up, he picked the leaves and spread them on the table, waving at the post. Because Huai Su practiced calligraphy day and night, the old banana leaves were peeled off and the lobules were reluctant to pick, so he thought of a way to stand in front of the banana tree with pen and ink and write to the fresh leaves, even if the sun shone on him like a frying pan; The biting north wind cracked his hands and skin, but he kept practicing calligraphy regardless. He kept writing about one place after another. This is the famous calligraphy practice of Huai Su Banana.
