1. "A bird flies by in such a light body"
There was a man from Chen She in Bianjing in the Northern Song Dynasty who accidentally got an old copy of "Du Fu" "Collection of Poems", he felt like he had found a treasure. However, due to poor storage of this book, many words in the poems fell off. Once, when Chen Sheren read "Poems for Cai Duwei", he found that "the body is light and the body is light." There is a missing word after the word "bird" in the sentence "bird, a gun is in danger, and thousands of people cry out". He thought about it repeatedly, but he still couldn't decide what word it was.
One day, he was talking with several poetry friends. When writing a poem, this question was raised, and I hope everyone can add the most appropriate word. Some people wrote the word "ji", thinking that the word "ji" can best express Cai Duwei's brisk and rapid vertical jumping skills. Some people think that it is not Good, because "A light body makes a bird sick, but a gun is used by thousands of people." The word "ji" in the first sentence and the word "ji" in the next sentence are too close in pronunciation and meaning, which seems a bit repetitive. Someone else wrote The word "degree" is used here, but Chen Sheren thinks that the word "degree" is too blunt when used here, and it does not show the characteristics of being born as light as a bird. Some people even suggested using the words "Luo", "Qi", "Xia", etc. But no one was satisfied.
Later, Chen Sheren found a relatively complete "Collection of Du Fu's Poems" elsewhere. When he turned to "Poems for Du Wei Cai", it turned out that the sentence was "the body" "A light bird passes". The word "pass" is really appropriate to describe Cai Duwei's jumping high and fast, like a bird flying in front of his eyes.
