Du xiufeng
Qing dynasty? Yuan Mei
Can't find the whole story, a mountain suddenly appeared, towering into the sky, straight into the South Big Dipper.
Nine times out of ten, the mountains and rivers in Guilin are strange, and Duxiufeng is second to none.
Climbing hundreds of steps to the top, you can enjoy the scenery of the whole city, but you can see the light fog and blue waves.
Castle peak is still as straight as a string, how can life be isolated from the world?

This poem, Du Xiufeng, is about Yuan Mei's landscape in Guilin when he revisited it in his later years.
Guilin landscape is one of the top ten scenic spots in China, and it is known as "Guilin landscape is the best in the world". Guilin's mountains and rivers complement each other, and the mountains are grotesque. The main mountain scenes are Elephant Trunk Mountain, Fubo Mountain, Diecai Mountain and Jiuma Painting Mountain. The water is clear and transparent, and the main water features are Lijiang, Liangjiang and Sihu. In this poem, the poet wrote about Du Xiufeng, a mountain in Guilin. For Du Xiufeng's description, the poet did not directly describe it, but the pen was vigorous. The first couplet was split in the air and the language was exaggerated, which showed the grandeur and extraordinary of Guilin Mountain. The word "insert" vividly describes the poet's keen and unique aesthetic feeling when he met Du Xiufeng unexpectedly, shows the dynamic beauty of Du Xiufeng, and vividly highlights the extraordinary momentum of Du Xiufeng's solitary peak. Zhuan Xu spoke his mind and expressed his praise for Du Xiufeng. Looking down on the world, the writers of "Necklace" saw a misty water city and gave birth to heroic feelings. The first three links are full, and the following links will follow up.
The phrase "Castle Peak is still as straight as a string, how can life be isolated from the world?" It is the author's understanding of life from Du Xiufeng. Du Xiufeng is tall and straight, like a string; It soars into the sky, like a sword inserted into the sky; It stands in the cold, does not walk with worldly affairs, and shows a lonely and self-controlled sentiment. The author can't help but be impressed by the precipitousness of Du Xiufeng's high shore and think that he is a mountain man. Integrity may sometimes be helpless and lonely, but it is precisely because of this that he has a unique beauty and a noble and upright spirit. Du Like Xiufeng, though isolated from the world, is magnificent and immortal, which is what the author has been pursuing all his life, showing a positive, optimistic and upward attitude towards life.
This poem turns static into dynamic, intangible into tangible, giving Du Xiufeng a dynamic image and vividly reflecting the image of Du Xiufeng soaring into the sky.
