Following the mountains to the east and Shaobei, there is a hundred meters of hanging water. There are eighty-nine folds in the mountain, and there are often pools at the folds, which are as deep as five feet deep and cannot be stopped by rocks. Snow splashes and thunder rages, which is both gratifying and terrifying. There are dozens of giant traces on the water cliff, so-called "Buddha traces".
Returning at dusk, I walked backwards to watch the mountain burning. The fire was very intense. Pitch up the valley for several degrees, until the moon rises over the mountains and rivers, knock down the middle stream, and pick up the pearls and jade.
When I got home, I drank wine again and ate ambrosia and cooked vegetables. Gu Ying was slumped, no longer sleepy, and wrote to pay for it. Dongpo Weng.

Baishui refers to Baishui Mountain in Huizhou. [1] Baishui: The name of the mountain, located in the northeast of today's Boluo County, Guangdong.

The structure of this article is based on time as a clue, and the writing method is mainly narrative, with both situational and emotional expression. The article is appropriately detailed about the village, and the language is concise and meaningful. The first two sentences highlight the topic and explain the date, place, and people of the trip. Baishui Mountain is named after its white water, so the author focused on describing the hundreds of hanging waterfalls. The metaphor of "snow splashing with thunder and fury" is vivid, describing its characteristics of majestic power, loud sound and bright color. The process of going down the mountain is simply described as "pitch degree valley". The description of the action of "picking up pearls and jade" is full of scenery and emotion, including the scenery of white moon and clear water, as well as the author's admiration and joy. The description of the situation of "Looking at the shadow with a slumped look and no longer sleeping" is rich in content. The author's joy of landscapes and the sorrow of his life experience are intertwined in it.

On October 12, the first year of Shaosheng’s reign, my youngest son Su Guo and I visited Baishui Buddhist Monument. Bathing in the spring, the water is so hot that its source can probably cook things. Walking eastward along the mountain, there is another 100-foot waterfall slightly to the north. There are eight or nine bends on the mountain, and there is a tan in each bend. In a deep pool, if a stone is tied with a rope and it falls five feet, it will not reach the bottom. The water in the pool splashed like snowflakes, and the sound roared like thunder, which made people both happy and surprised. There are dozens of huge footprints by the water, probably the so-called traces of Buddha. In the evening we returned along the way, and the mountain seemed to be burning under the setting sun, which was very spectacular. Either bend down or look up to look at these valleys. When I arrived at the riverside, the moon came out and the river water was beating. I held the jasper-like water in my hands. It was already midnight when we got home, and Su Guo and I drank again. Eating olives, I felt depressed and couldn't sleep anymore.
I wrote these words and gave them to Guo'er, Dongpo Ji
