When Zhang Xu began to practice calligraphy, he learned the calligraphy of "Two Kings". Later, when his calligraphy reached a certain level, he had the idea of creating his own calligraphy.
But Zhang Xu didn't know where to start and created his own calligraphy. One day when he was walking on Chang 'an Avenue, he suddenly saw the crowd surging in front of him, as if something had happened.
So Zhang Xu followed the trend of the crowd and made her way forward. Finally, Zhang Xu found the reason for his excitement. It turns out that Gong Sundaniang is performing sword dancing on Chang 'an Avenue.
At that time, Gong Sundaniang's sword dance was very famous. Not only has a high reputation among the people, but even emperors and generals admire her very much. They often invite Gong Sundaniang to their home to perform sword dance.
Zhang Xu was fascinated by Gong Sundaniang's sword dance. He found that Gong Sundaniang's swordsmanship was extremely beautiful, which was different from the mainstream swordsmanship at this time, but his swordsmanship took a slant and found another way. Looking at Gong Sundaniang's performance, Zhang Xu felt that his body and mind had been completely attracted by the other party.
I saw Gong Sundaniang's posture is light and agile, his dancing is vigorous, and his double swords are flying up and down, flickering. Like a butterfly swimming among flowers, it is full of interest and charm.
Zhang Xu's attention was focused on Gong Sundaniang's sword. He went in and out, watching every movement and typing very carefully. Soon, he was completely integrated into the sword of Gong Sundaniang. After the sword dance, the crowd dispersed, and Zhang Xu was still immersed in it for a long time before he came to his senses. Suddenly he seemed to realize something, dancing and excited. After returning home, Zhang Xu immediately practiced calligraphy.
I saw that he seemed to turn the pen in his hand into Gong Sundaniang's sword. The sword turned around, sometimes it went down the mountain like a tiger, and sometimes it came out of the water like a dragon. It was unpredictable, and every word was written while flying. Since then, Zhang Xu's calligraphy has made great progress, but it still falls short of the school.
On another occasion, Zhang Xu was walking in the street, and saw the porter carrying the burden in front of him, sweating profusely. The two burdens on the shoulders, up and down, fall together, full of movement.
Zhang Xu lost in thought again. When he woke up, he realized that he had finally found what he had been looking for, so he went home to dance and picked up Gong Sundaniang's sword.
The husband's shoulders and burdens were put together, and a brand-new font "Crazy Grass" was written on the paper in the form of a book.
Zhang Xu finally became a generation of calligraphy masters, which made him a "sage of grass" in calligraphy.
