No one can be seen in the silent valley, only the voice is heard.
The shadow of the sunset shone into the depths of the forest, and the scenery on the moss was pleasant.

The first sentence, "There seems to be no one on the empty mountain", first describes the empty mountain positively. Wang Wei especially likes to use the word "empty mountain", but in different poems, the realm it expresses is different. "Empty mountain after rain, beginning of autumn evening" ("Mountain in Autumn Night"), focusing on the autumn mountain after rain; "Sweet-scented osmanthus falls when people are idle, and the night is quiet and the spring mountain is empty" ("Bird Watching Creek"), which focuses on expressing the tranquility and beauty of the spring mountain night; There seems to be no one on the empty mountain. On the other hand, it focuses on the emptiness and tranquility of the mountain. Because there is no trace, this mountain, which is not a vacuum, appears empty and empty in the poet's feeling, just like the ancient land. "Seeing no one" embodies the meaning of "empty mountain".
