The first sentence begins with an auditory image. One autumn evening, the poet passed by a mountain village and could smell the gurgling water of the mountain stream from a distance: "It's cold to smell the water for miles". Within miles, he could clearly hear the subtle sound of water, which showed the silence and desolation of the mountains. What is reflected in his eyes is a sparse family-"there are few neighbors in the mountain family." This auditory image and visual image set off each other and are vividly rendered.
Zhuan Xu focuses on the gloomy scene of Xiao Sao in the mountains: "Birds are strange in the wild, and pedestrians are afraid in the setting sun." A "strange bird" is probably a bird like an owl. This strange bird sings in the desolate wilderness of the desert, which is already frightening. Just as the sun went down, the mountains gradually darkened, and lonely pedestrians naturally felt even more chilling at this moment. These two poems are very shocking in sound and color. The realm of poetry is deep and secluded, which is naturally the true nature of Jia Dao.
The poet walked from the wilderness a few miles away to the mountain village. Time passed unconsciously and the night quietly opened. Night scene translated by the Neck Couplet: "Before the end of the first month, the border fire is not the enemy of Qin." There were two kinds of border bonfires in the Tang Dynasty: one was an emergency bonfire to report something on the border, and the other was a bonfire to report peace. Qin refers to the south of Shaanxi today. The meaning of these two sentences is
At the end of the couplet, the joy of approaching the mountain village is written: "Outside the depressed mulberry forest, fireworks are getting closer and closer to each other." After crossing the desolate Shan Ye, the poet finally vaguely saw the mulberry trees often planted near people's houses in the mountain village and the curled light smoke rising from the huts, and he couldn't help feeling extremely warm and cordial in his heart. The previous fear gradually subsided and became a feeling of joy and joy. The phrase "fireworks are getting closer and closer to each other" is very interesting in life.
The layout of the poem begins with "cold water" and ends with "fireworks" In the middle, strange birds, sunset, early moon and bonfires in the wilderness are described, giving people a feeling of being cold and hot, from fear to relief. Mountain scenery is described by changing scenery, and the poet's mood fluctuates and develops with the passage of time. In this way, the pattern of this poem appears to be ups and downs.
The image of the poem is strange, cold and thin, and the realm is deep and strange, which is really unique in the middle Tang poetry. In the Ming Dynasty, Hu Yinglin praised The Wandering Fairy Mystery as "Five Words Alone" (Volume 4 of "Poetry Internal Compilation"). Stylistically, this comment is also pertinent.
