Interview with Li Bai, a Taoist priest in Tianshan Mountains (Tang Dynasty)
In the barking of dogs, peach blossoms are thick. See the deer when the tree is deep, but don't ring the bell at noon. Wild bamboos are green and misty, and flying springs hang blue peaks. No one knows where to go. I'm worried about two or three loose.

This poem was written by Li Bai when he was studying in Dai Tian (now Changlong County, Sichuan Province) in his early years. Through what he saw and heard, the poet painted a beautiful and affectionate picture of meeting the Taoist priest and reappeared a beautiful life realm of Taoist paradise.
The first couplet "In the barking of dogs, peach blossoms are thick." What the poet saw and heard in the morning showed a scene of Taoyuan: the water was clear, echoing the faint barking of dogs; Peach blossoms are in full bloom and dew is abundant. The first sentence reads, listen, the spring is flowing, and the dog barking is faintly heard; As you can see in the second sentence, peach blossoms are dew in the morning, dazzling and charming.
The poet went through the forest by the stream into the mountains, and the scenery along the way was pleasant, which made people linger; I think the Taoist living in this place, like a paradise, has reached a transcendence.
Zhuan Xu "A deer is seen deep in the tree, but a bell is not heard at noon." What the poet saw and heard at noon presented a natural and peaceful picture: the Woods were deep and wild deer were infested; There was silence at noon, but no bell was heard. The first sentence is set off by "seeing deer when it is time", which shows that the environment is quiet; The absence of the bell implies that there is no one in the yard, indicating that the environment is quiet. It was very quiet in the mountains, suggesting that the Taoist priest had gone out.
Neck ties are "wild bamboo green, flying in spring and hanging blue peaks." Write a poem about what you see and feel in the Humanitarian Hospital, showing the beauty and detachment of the bamboos around the courtyard and the waterfalls hanging on the blue peak: the wild bamboos are separated from the blue mist and go straight through the blue sky, and the waterfalls hang on the blue peak. The word "fen" in the previous sentence combines two similar tones of wild bamboo and blue orchid into a green color, which is smart and delicate;
The word "hanging" in the last sentence combines the white flying spring and the blue mountain peak, which set each other off. These two lyrical sentences not only express the indifference and nobleness of the Taoist temple's pure land, but also express the poet's feelings of being unattainable.
Tailian "I don't know where to go, but I'm worried about Ersansong." The poet's feeling of not meeting the Taoist priest shows his boredom and loss: no one knows where the Taoist priest is going, so he has to rely on Gu Song to eliminate all his troubles. When the poet asked if his friend was not there, he leaned against the pine tree by the roadside and felt sad. It seems like a few circuitous descriptions, but he has expressed his endless feelings for a long time, which is memorable.
The first six sentences of the whole poem are written as "interview", focusing on scenery and beautiful scenery; The last two sentences write "misfortune", focusing on lyricism and smoothness. Pure line drawing, beautiful scenery and affectionate feelings are used throughout, which is full of youthful vigor and diligent exploration spirit.
