The reason why "people walk at the bottom of the pond and look up at the lotus, but it is in the sky" is confusing because it is contrary to common sense. However, it is precisely because it is contrary to common sense that it is strange.
< p> This sentence should be explained in the context of the full text, so let’s briefly explain the overall meaning of the article. "Yu Yuan" lies in the wonder of the garden, and the wonder of the garden lies in 祥 (the original word is "Lei"). In fact, it should be "mountain") stone. In other words, the wonder of the garden is not the stone itself, but the stacked stones, which are the "stone slopes", stone "peaks" and "gullies" mentioned in the article. ". There are three strange things about stone, one is "solid", the other is "empty", and the other is "deep and shadowy". All three are different and have their own characteristics. Therefore, the sentences written on stone must revolve around these three characteristics. The meaning of the sentence has been determined.Secondly, to understand the "three wonders", planting fruit pine, peony and peony on the slope is not allowed. It can be said that there is no gap, especially when people cannot go up (because it is a high slope), implying that there are still rocks that can be climbed up (either by walking or descending). The latter refers to the high slope of the gap, the deep and dark ravine, and the high or low characteristics of the stone in the middle. This characteristic is definitely not full and unreachable, nor is it deep and dark. This is "empty" and "substantial". On the other hand, "empty" means "empty" and "empty", implying that people can do it; on the other hand, "empty" means "empty" and "empty", implying the meaning of emptiness and looking up. The meaning is still just a guess, it needs to be understood in specific sentences.
Finally, let’s explain the sentence of “empty”: “The back hall is next to a large pool, with strange peaks and ravines in the pool, steep up and down. ,, Yi Kongqi. ”
The intertextuality of “Qifeng Jue gully” refers to wonderful peaks and ravines. Peak refers to a high mountain top, and gully refers to a deep valley, referring to the depression between two peaks. The former continues the “real” height Slope, the latter refers to the word "deep", "steep up and steep down", which means that the peak is straight up and the valley is straight down.
"People walk on the bottom of the pool." "If you look up at the lotus, it will be in the sky." The difficulty in understanding is that you can walk on the bottom of the pool? Can you look up at the lotus?
The previous article has explained that "empty" means "empty" and "empty", which means that someone can do it. Also, here it must refer to the depression (gully) between the two peaks where you can walk. Also note the word "walk" here, not "walk". The meaning of "walking" to the bottom of the pool is different from that of "walking" to the bottom of the pool. There is a slight difference, people are not always at the bottom of the pool. People can walk to the bottom of the pool along the middle concave area, so it is called "empty", which coincides with the previous explanation. At this time, the pool is high and the gully is low, and people stand in the gully. At the bottom of the pool, it makes sense that the lotus flowers stand tall and straight, and slant out side by side, higher than the top of people's heads. So when I look up, there may be lotus flowers with the sky as the background, and it feels like they are in the sky, which means "empty and bright". , which also coincides with the above understanding.
Some people may explain that lotus flowers grow in the water of stone peaks and gullies, which is too far-fetched. What does it have to do with the "uncanny" of the stone?
In this way, it is not only the strange feature of the stone stacking in the garden, but also closely connected with the context. The semantics are coherent and integrated, and there is something ingenious in the paradox
