1, catching the moon and drowning
This statement is beautiful and romantic. Li Bai's life is a chic life. Even Li Bai's good friend Du Fu thinks that he drowned to catch the reflection of the moon. Du Fu wrote poems to express his grief for Li Bai, so that these two great poets will remain in the hearts of future generations forever.
2, drunk and sudden death
There is such a description of Li Bai's death in Old Tang Book: "He died of excessive drinking and drunkenness in Xuancheng." Therefore, it can be seen that Li Bai died of drunkenness. Li Bai was in poor health in his later years, just like a pile of hay. If he drinks too much, he is likely to drown.
3. Died of natural diseases
Li Bai was 6 1 year old when he died. Before that, he had experienced the demise of Yelang, exhausted physically and mentally. So it is not surprising that he died in his later years. Uncle Li said that Li Bai died of "rib rot", which is also called chronic chest and lung pus in modern medicine. Excessive drinking is the most likely cause of this disease, so it is very likely to die from excessive drinking.
Main influence
Li Bai has the highest achievements in Yuefu, Gexing and Jueju. His songs completely broke all the inherent forms of poetry creation, no one relied on them, and his brushwork was diverse, reaching the magical realm of unpredictability and swaying. Li Bai's quatrains are natural and lively, elegant and chic, and can express endless feelings in concise and lively language. Among the poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Wang Wei and Meng Haoran were good at the Five Wonders, while Wang Changling and others wrote the Seven Wonders well. Li Bai is the only one who is good at both the Five Odds and the Seven Odds.
Li Bai's poems are magnificent and elegant, and his artistic achievements are extremely high. He eulogized the mountains, rivers and beautiful natural scenery of the motherland, with bold and unrestrained style, elegant and fresh, full of romantic spirit, and achieved the unity of content and art, so he was called the "fallen fairy". His poems mainly described the mountains and rivers and expressed his inner feelings.
