The famous calligrapher of Tang Dynasty who studied calligraphy and washed pens in Changsha Chengbei Bookstore is

Ou Yangxun, a famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, studied calligraphy and washed pens in Shutangshan, north of Changsha. Ou Yangxun, a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, was born in Hengzhou, now Hengyang, Hunan. In the past, there was no running water, and people liked to tell stories about washing pens after practicing calligraphy and blackening the pool, which led a considerable number of people to practice calligraphy and wash pens one after another. The south slope of Shutang Mountain in the north of Changsha is where Ou Yangxun washes his pens.

This place is where a clear spring flows in the mountains. There is a granite next to it, which is engraved with "Pen-washing Spring", and the writing on it is vigorous and powerful. Ou Yangxun practiced calligraphy here all the year round, and at the request of the king of the country, he co-edited Selected Works with others, which lasted for more than seven years and finally passed away at an advanced age.

Poems such as "Lost" and "Laughing at Xiao _ Shooting" all come from and are full of thoughts. Ou Yangxun is closely related to his family and was adopted and raised by his father's friends since childhood. Later, I made friends with King Li Yuan, and my career was booming. Ou Yangxun himself is smart and diligent, and he is also good at writing. His calligraphy is rigorous and his pen is powerful. This font was unparalleled at that time, which made Ou Yangxun's reputation even spread to Yidi in the distance.

"As far as possible, eight-body writing is required. Seal script is particularly refined, flying white crown, superior to the ancients. Disturbed the image of the dragon and snake fighting, the cloud is as light as a cage, just like a god. The book of true behavior is out of order and incomplete. As dense as an armory spear and halberd, Shen Feng is stricter than wise and brave, not as good as Shinan. His cursive script has been circulated repeatedly and can be regarded as two kings. But he was shocked and didn't avoid danger, and he was hurt by Qing. " -I'm proud of myself.

Ou Yangxun not only wrote well, but also founded calligraphy theory, which brought countless inspirations to future generations. The scenery of Ou Yangxun's study can be seen in the places such as Xibi Spring Pool, Prince Xu Wei, Shuangfeng Lane, Bai He, Daoxiang Spring and Ouyang Pavilion.
