Numbers are abstract, and poetry requires thinking in images. However, the combination of the two can also produce excellent works.

The work of Shao Kangjie, an acting scholar of the Song Dynasty: "After going two or three miles, there are four or five houses in Yancun, six or seven pavilions, and eighty or ninety flowers."

This five-story poem The quatrains embed the numbers "one" to "ten" into the poem, forming a quiet and picturesque mountain village scenery, which is simple and refreshing.

Shao Kangjie, courtesy name Yaofu. Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty was born in Fanyang (now Dashao Village, Zhuozhou, Hebei) in the 4th year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1011 AD). He is proficient in the Book of Changes and good at numbers. He is the author of "Easy to Count Plum Blossoms".

Personally, I think this poem by Shao Kangjie contains the mystery of Yili.

One goes two or three miles, which means Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, and two gives birth to three. With the eyes of a traveler, roam the boundless wildness. Free and easy, eclectic.

There are four or five houses in Yancun, with six or seven trees in front of their doors and eighty or ninety flowers. This is the scene of the evolution of Yili. There is the tranquility and nature of a small country with few people, which coincides with the realm of Taoism and Taoism. There is the freedom and ease of integrating the way of heaven into nature and the unity of nature and man.
