The slope of the stone path means that the road is winding and twisting, and the frost leaf means the maple leaf that has been beaten by frost.
"Mountain Journey" is the name of a poem written by Du Mu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. Through the poet's emotional tendency, the poem uses the maple forest as the main scene to draw a warm and gorgeous autumn color picture of the mountain forest.
"Mountain Travel"
[Tang Dynasty] Du Mu
Far up the Hanshan Mountain, the stone path is slanted, and there are people living deep in the white clouds.
I park my car and sit in the maple forest at night, the leaves are as red as the flowers in February due to frost.
Controversy record:
Whether the word "deep" or "生" is used in the second sentence of the original text is still controversial in academic circles. Chen Menglei, the author of "Dust of Ancient and Modern Books" edited by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, wrote "There is a Family Deep in the White Clouds". Zhao Huanguang in Wanli of Ming Dynasty published the version, and Song Hongmai compiled "Ten Thousand Tang Dynasty Quatrains" as "There is a Family Deep in the White Clouds". There are two versions included in the "Sikuquanshu" compiled by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. For example, "A Collection of Tang Poems" and "Yuding Complete Poems of the Tang Dynasty" compiled by Ming Gaoyu include "There is a Family Deep in the White Clouds", while Song Hongmai compiled "Ten Thousand Quatrains of the Tang Dynasty" As "Baiyun was born in a family"·.
In some textbooks, the poem has been revised from the original "There is a family in the depths of the white clouds" to the current "There is a family in the white clouds", and it is explained in the annotations that "'Birthplace' means 'deep'" ” (The textbook used during the examination should prevail). In the 1994 edition, the Ministry of Education re-edited the Chinese dictionary as "There is a family deep in the white clouds".
