1. The Immortal Descends
It is said that Li Bai was born after his mother dreamed that Taibai Venus fell into her arms, so he was named Li Bai, with the courtesy name Taibai. When he grew up, Li Bai did have some "immortal spirit". He traveled around the world, learned Taoism and swordsmanship, was a good drinker and a knight, and was proud of the princes. His poems are as imaginative as "I want to go up to the blue sky to embrace the bright moon", and their momentum is like "the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky", which no one can match.
2. Li Bai went out to a restaurant
Li Bai’s wine was not very good, or rather too bad. If he was drunk, he would dare to offend even the emperor. The unit of measuring wine in the Tang Dynasty was a small bucket, and one bucket was approximately 2000 ml. Li Bai's drinking capacity was only about that, and he started talking nonsense after half a dozen drinks. So how much is this bucket of wine worth? Li Bai's own poem said: "Ten thousand gold cups of wine are worth a cup." One cup is worth ten thousand cups, which is really expensive.
In the twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan, a handful of rice in the two capitals cost more than two hundred cents; in the second year of Tianbao, a Turkic horse on the market cost 9,550 cents. Only people like Li Bai could afford to drink. A bucket of wine could be exchanged for a hundred poems, and if the poems were converted into royalties, the wine money could almost be used up. But given Chang'an's wealth and abundance of goods, I believe the price of Li Bai's restaurant would not be much cheaper, even if it cost less than ten thousand for a dou of wine.
3. Dreaming of flowers growing on the pen
According to Tianbao’s legacy, when he was young, Li Bai once dreamed that the pen he used had flowers growing on his head. Later, he became a genius and became famous all over the world. It is also recorded that Li Bai was addicted to alcohol and did not stick to trivial matters. However, the articles written by Shen Zhenzhong were not wrong. When discussing matters with others, most of them did not use Li Bai's opinions, so people at the time called him a Drunken Sage.
4. Grinding an iron pestle into a needle
It is said that Li Bai did not study hard when he was a child and stopped reading halfway. One day, I saw an old woman grinding an iron rod on the road and said she wanted to grind it into needles. Li Bai was moved by this, and he studied hard from then on, and finally made great achievements. This is the story of "an iron pestle ground into a needle".
5. Raise your glass to invite the bright moon, and look at each other to form the story of three people.
Li Bai’s famous line from “Drinking Alone Under the Moon”. It describes the poet drinking with the shadow of "myself outside me" and the moon on a moonlit night, drinking by himself, without any relatives or friends around him. Raise the glass to the sky, invite the bright moon, face my shadow, and we become three people. The bright moon cannot understand the joy of drinking and drinking, and its shadow can only silently follow me around.
