Geng Geng: looking uneasy. Yingying: Seemingly coming and going all the time.
"The night is hard and sleepless, and the soul is wandering until dawn." means: the mind is restless all night and it is difficult to fall asleep, and the soul is wandering until dawn.
This sentence comes from a Chu poem called "Yuanyou". Although there is some controversy about its author in modern times, most people believe that it is Qu Yuan. The far journey described in the poem "Yuan Yu" is not the poet's actual behavior, but more of an imaginative activity. Because it is an imaginative activity, the poet positioned the journey in the sky, among the weirdness of Shintoism, and in the shadows of clouds and clouds. Many gods in the sky have become the poet's companions. The ancients believed that heaven is pure and elegant, so the dream of traveling far away is also magical and refined. However, in the end the poet had to return to the human world, to the suffering and darkness of the secular society. The condemnation of the despicableness of secular society and the pursuit of an elegant and innocent world are also revealed in the fiction of distant travels.
A large number of gods and strange things appear in the poem, including Taihao, Xihuang, Zhuanxu and other gods from all directions. There are various righteous gods such as the god of thunder Fenglong, the god of wood Jumang, the god of wind Feilian, the god of gold Liaoshou, the god of fire Zhurong, the god of Luo Mifei, the god of Xiangshui Xiangling, the god of sea Hairuo, etc., as well as Xuanwu star, Wenchang star, etc. Star officials include immortals such as Chisongzi, Fu Shuo, Han Zhong, and Wang Qiao; mythical animals such as Eight Dragons, Phoenixes, Luan Birds, Xuan Chi, and Insect Elephants; and Tanggu, Changhe, Taiwei, Xunshi, and Qing The names of mythical places such as Du and Taiyi are dizzying and thrilling. This is the product of the intersection of folklore and primitive religion during the Warring States Period. It reflects the imaginative characteristics of Chu culture, shows the poet's artistic vision of absorbing folk literature and art materials for poetry creation, and his creative ability to freely manipulate opening and closing. This has also preserved a large amount of ancient mythological materials for us, which has become an important reference for future generations of literary and artistic creation.

"Traveling Far Away"
I am saddened by the current and customs, but I am willing to travel far away with ease.
The quality is meager and there is no reason for it. How can it float up by taking advantage of it?
Suffering from turbidity and filth, I am so depressed that I can’t say anything!
The night is hard and sleepless, and the soul is struggling until dawn.
But the heaven and earth are infinite, and I mourn the long and diligent life.
I can’t reach those who have gone by, and I don’t hear those who come.
I lean on them as I step forward. Thoughtful from afar, wandering yet well-behaved.
The mind is suddenly wandering, and the heart is sad and desolate.
The spirit is fleeting and does not turn back, and the form is withered and left alone.
Inwardly, we should only reflect on the proper conduct and the source of righteousness.
Being deserted, empty and quiet is peaceful and joyful, and being indifferent and contented.
When I hear the clear dust of the red pines, I am willing to bear the wind.
Respect the virtues of the real person, and the beauty of the past life can ascend to immortality.
With the transformation, it will not be windy, and the reputation will last day by day.
Qi Fu said that the stars are coming, and everyone in the Han Dynasty is envious of them.

The super atmosphere and the graceful nature will never turn against the old capital.
To avoid public trouble and not be afraid, the world does not know what it is like.
Afraid of the order of the times, Yao Ling Ye marched westward.
A slight frost is falling, mourning the beginning of the fragrant grass.
It is like pretending to be carefree, and it will last for years without success.
Who can play with Si’s lingering fragrance? It’s soothing to grow up facing the wind.
Gaoyang Miao is far away, how can I reach it?
Zhong said: In the Spring and Autumn Period, it suddenly stopped flooding, so Xi stayed in this former residence for a long time.
Xuanyuan cannot be climbed, so I will entertain myself from Wang Qiao.
Eat the six qi and drink the qi, and rinse the positive yang with the morning glow.

It is said: "The Tao can be accepted, but cannot be taught;
It is small and has no inner meaning, but its great master is vast;
It is not slippery but has a soul, and it will be general Naturally;
One air hole is full of energy, and it exists in the middle of the night;
Existence is waiting for nothing, and there is no first step;
Common people can achieve this, this The Gate of Virtue."
I heard that it was noble and came to visit, but suddenly I was about to go.
I still have people in Danqiu, leaving my old hometown of immortality.

Quality is sold to make an appointment, but God wants to be punished to let loose.
The flames of Jianan Prefecture are beautiful, and the beautiful osmanthus trees are blooming in winter;
The mountains are desolate and there are no animals, and the wilderness is lonely and deserted.
Carry the soul of the camp and climb the clouds, cover up the floating clouds and go on the march.
The sky is ordered to open and close the door, and the sky is closed to look at it.
For example, the messenger from Fenglong came and asked Taiwei where he lived.
We gathered at the Double Ninth Festival and entered the imperial palace. At the beginning of the tenth day of the lunar month, we visited the Qing capital.
The morning begins in Taiyixi, and the evening begins in Weilu.
There are tens of thousands of cars in the village, all racing together.
The eight dragons are graceful and graceful, and the cloud-carrying flag is the snake.
The colorful rainbow of Jianxiong is colorful and flamboyant.
He who wears Yan Jian is low and proud, and he is crouched so that he is arrogant.
The riding on the entanglement is messy and scattered, and it can move forward.
Writing the rest of the bridle and making progress, I will pass the sentence.
Turn right from Taihao, and fly forward to open the road.
The sun is shining brightly, and the sky and the earth are measured in diameter.
Uncle Feng is here as a pioneer, and the atmosphere is refreshing and cool.
The phoenix wings carry the flag, and when it meets the child, it reaches the Western Emperor.
When you hold the comet in front of you, you think it’s a bow, and when you hold up the bucket handle, you think it’s your subordinate.
The rebel land is separated from its upper and lower parts, swimming in the waves of startling fog.
When the weather is warm, it is so wild that it summons Xuanwu and rushes to his subordinates.
Later Wenchang sent an envoy to the palace to choose the gods to unite them.
The road is long and long, but Xu Yan is strict and vigorous.
On the left, Master Yu sent an envoy to guard Xi, and on the right, Duke Lei served as a guard.
If you want to live this life, you will forget to return home, and you will be held hostage by your posture.
I am happy and beautiful inside, chatting and entertaining myself with obscene pleasures.
Wandering through the blue clouds, I suddenly came to my husband's old hometown.
The servant's heart is filled with sadness, and his horse can't do anything.
I miss the past, so I imagine it, and I take a long breath to cover my tears.

The female nuns are blooming, and the luan birds are flying in the air.
The evolution of music has no end, and it will linger until it passes away.
Shu and Jie are used to gallop on the road, and they are as far as the humble family.

If you call Guizhou to win and see you, the road will be smooth for me first.
It operates in all directions and travels across six deserts.
Go up to Liequexi and look down at the great ravine.
The bottom is majestic and there is no ground, the top is meager and there is no sky.
Looking suddenly without seeing, listening suddenly without hearing.
Super inaction leads to purity, and is adjacent to Taichu.
