In December of the sixth year of the apocalypse, the snow was more than three feet deep.
It cleared up in the evening, and I boarded Longshan and sat at the gate of Chenghuang Temple, accompanied by Li Miaosheng, Gao Meisheng, Wang Wansheng, Pan. The mountains are covered with snow, and the brilliance of the moon is thin. The moon can't shine, so can the snow.
I feel a little cold after sitting for a long time. Cangtou (Cangtou: refers to the head wrapped in a blue scarf, here refers to the older guy) brought wine. I barely lifted the mug against the cold and the alcohol rose. Snow swallowed the wine, and I was not drunk. Ma Xiaoqing sang a song, and Li Jisheng played the flute and sang Ma Xiaoqing's song. His voice was silenced by the cold.
When we went back to sleep in the middle of the night, Pan and I helped each other and rolled along Baibu Street to the foot of the mountain, covered in snow. I came back in a small sheep's head car, dragging the whole body with ice.

In the evening, I went to Longshan and sat at the gate of the Chenghuang Temple, accompanied by Li Miaosheng, Gao Meisheng, Wang Miaosheng, Pan. The mountains are covered with snow, the moon is very thin, the moon cannot shine, and the snow is white. After sitting for a long time, my pale head brought me wine, but I hardly raised my arm to resist the cold. I was drunk, and Ran Ran was covered with snow. I couldn't get drunk.
Ma Xiaoqing sang a song, and Li Jisheng played the flute to make it sound. The sound was frightened by the cold and he couldn't get it out of his throat. Go to bed on three drums. Ma Xiaoqing and Pan hugged each other and rolled along Baibu Street to the foot of the mountain, standing in the snow. I took a little goat's head car and dragged it home.

Writing background:
Zhang Dai was born in an official family. He suffered from phlegm disease in his early years and lived in his grandfather's house to recuperate. In addition to being called "today's river" by his uncle Tao Huxi because of his intelligence and kindness, he also proposed that "painting with poetry is not good; Taking poetry as poetry, poetry will be bad ",etc.; "During the apocalypse, in the early years of Chongzhen, he wandered freely and left many poems.
In the eighth year of Chongzhen (1635), he took the provincial examination and failed to enter the official position. After the death of Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, he first avoided the disaster of soldiers and lived in seclusion in Siming Mountain. After the military disaster, he persisted in poverty and began to devote himself to writing, including Tao Anmeng, West Lake Dream and Shishi Book.
On the solstice of the winter in the forty years of Wanli (16 12), Zhang Dai felt sleepy and confused about the future, so he went to Nanzhen Temple at the foot of Huiji Mountain to pray for his dreams, in order to ask about his future fame and fortune, so he made a study trip.
In March of the following year (16 13), Zhang Dai visited Lanting with his friends, but he was not disappointed because he felt that the Lanting site was far from the Preface to Lanting Collection. Later, he wrote to Bao, dismissing the view that "there is poetry in poetry and poetry in painting", and put forward that "painting with poetry is not good" and poetry is not good.
In the same year, Zhang Dai met nineteen-year-old Lu Jiaan and twenty-six-year-old Zhou Maoxian. In the summer of the following year (16 14), Zhang Dai passed by Banzhu Temple and found Xiangquan, which was good for making tea. The wellhead is engraved with the word "Xiangquan", and the calligraphy is similar to that of Wang Xizhi.
In the sixth year of the Apocalypse (1626), on a snowy night in December, Zhang Dai took Gao Meisheng, Gao Meisheng, Pan to Longshan to watch the snow and sing. On the mountain, people want to sing to the moon, but because of the cold weather, their voices are sobbing, so they have to give up. After that, Zhang Dai came back in a sheep cart and wrote a five-character ancient poem "Watching Snow in Longshan".
In the same year, Huang Ruheng died, and Zhang Dai visited Huang Ruheng's former residence in Nanping Mountain, Hangzhou. In April of the following year (1627), Zhang Dai went to Tianwashan to study. One afternoon, Zhang Dai and three friends climbed the censer peak to watch the sunset, and then watched the moon on the stone.
After the moon rose, several people went down the mountain and met servants and monks. They were afraid that Zhang Dai and others would meet tigers, so they all shouted along the road with torches, knives and sticks. The next day, Zhang Dai couldn't help laughing when he heard a mountaineer say that a robber climbed mountains and mountains last night.
