In study, work and even life, everyone is familiar with prose. The following is flying prose, flying, what am I, in the vast world, I am just a sandpiper! I made it up for reference only. Welcome to reading.

The world especially likes Du Fu's Orioles. Du Fu said in Chengdu that "two orioles sing green willows and a row of egrets go up to the sky", which became Du Fu's calling card for loving birds. Is that really the case?

No, "Angels go to the sky, near the North Star, riding horses, some diaphragmatic, some Kirin" (A Note to the Imperial Review of Han Dynasty) is what Du Fu yearned for all his life, such as Kirin and Phoenix. This poem is written for a talented young man.

But what kind of bird is Du Fu to himself?

I once read such a "riddle story" in the newspaper. The riddle said, "Frost on the barren slab bridge" and hit seven and a half sentences in the Tang Dynasty. This riddle is very interesting, and seven unique sentences are really whimsical. As we all know, the habit of writing Chinese characters from ancient times to the present is from right to left and from top to bottom. Then split a Chinese character with upper and lower structure into two independent Chinese characters. So the secret of this half sentence can be solved like this. After so many twists and turns, in fact, it is still the same sentence, "A line of white roads, birds in the sky." This at least shows that Du Fu's most poetic quatrains have become the beauty of many literati students. Of course, "Heaven" is every bird's most instinctive dream. So Du Fu loves birds very much.

Du Fu lived in Kuizhou, Three Gorges, and wrote many kinds of birds in one breath. I have a book "Collected Works of Du Fu's Kuizhou Studies" in hand, which contains all the papers of local scholars and scholars in Kuizhou who have conducted field research on Du Fu's poems. Among them, Mr. Long Zhan Ming of Kuizhou Du Fu Research Association spoke several songs about Du Fu's Birds. As a native of the Three Gorges, he is fascinated by Du Fu's culture and has a lot of feelings. We met twice. When we met at the end of this spring, we talked a lot about Kuizhou and Du Fu. I remember I told him an idea at that time, that is, Du Fu's bird-"Sha Ou", which bothered me the most. I hope to have the opportunity to write about this bird, and now it has finally become my title "Du Fu's bird is just a sandpiper in a vast, vast world!" .

Flying around, flying around, what am I like, just a sandpiper in the vast world! .

I just stood on the pier of the Three Gorges. The poet Du Fu once stood on a pier of the Three Gorges. I have drifted in the middle of the Three Gorges River many times, and Du Fu drifted in the middle of the Three Gorges River in the most difficult time. I saw countless waterfowl hovering in the high gorge, gradually approaching and drifting away, occasionally out of thin air, inevitably out of thin air ... white cranes floating together; Wild ducks occasionally flutter on the river and ripple in the water; Kingfishers freely rise and fall on the shore and fly with their wings; Owls doze comfortably in the trees on the banks of the Three Gorges, a flock of sparrows twitter with a gust of wind, white-bellied pheasants occasionally make guest appearances on the banks of the river, and special kites glide aloof in mid-air, calling for enthusiastic azaleas to moan ... Which is the "Sha Ou" deified by Du Fu?

Yes, it is "out of thin air".

Look up Baidu and dictionary. What is "Sha Ou"? However, it flies vividly in Du Fu's freehand brushwork poems, and stands on the screen of every tourist who has experienced the Three Gorges Waterway as a real poet. Du Fu said in "A Night Out": "I hope my art can bring me fame and free my sick old age from public office! ? "Is it the subtext call?

Before the artistic personification of "Sha Ou", Du Fu actually paid more attention to two birds-the cuckoo and the lonely goose.

Just say cuckoo. In Du Fu Caotang, Chengdu, he wrote "Bai Du", and in Yun 'an Ancient Town, Three Gorges, he wrote two poems, Du Fu and Zigui, with great interest. Because Yun 'an is the birthplace and residence of Liu Xing in the Three Gorges, he is very kind to Du Fu and Zigui, and naturally he is familiar with these "bird poems" of Du Fu.

The cuckoo worshipped is not a real cuckoo. According to legend, the ancient Shu people were the emperors of agriculture, mulberry and cluster, and managed water to prosper Shu. Wang Di is regarded as the god of agriculture, while Congdi is regarded as the god of water. Du Yu's cuckoo and the magical legend of cuckoo urging spring have become touching humanistic symbols of Bashu. In his later years, Emperor Wang Di realized his enlightenment, retired from Qingcheng Mountain, and turned the cuckoo into a soul, leaving behind a beautiful legend of "The cuckoo cries for blood" and an eternal story of "Moral condescension". The two emperors laid a solid foundation for the establishment of "Land of Abundance" and were called "Teachers of Abundance". Therefore, the legacy of the two emperors loved folk customs and was revered by future generations. There is a saying that "the cuckoo is sacrificed at Qingming Festival and Qu Yuan is sacrificed at Dragon Boat Festival". Shu people smell cuckoo and think of the emperor. Then, Du Fu began to fly in Du Fu's heart. After that, Wan Li took a boat trip to the Three Gorges, watched the different riverbeds of Sanjiang and boarded the riverbed waterfront pier. This cuckoo song once again plucked Du Fu's strings. So after he arrived in Yun 'an of the Three Gorges, he wrote two poems, Du Fu and Zigui.

The former poem said: "The ancient laws of sages and sages were passed down to future generations. Look at the birds, and you know the cuckoo. " After the poem said: "Yunan County in the gorge, Waqi in the wing of Jianglou. The mountains and trees on both sides of the strait are connected, and the rules are all day long. " The famous Qiu told a story when commenting on this poem. In Song Xiaozong, a new county magistrate was selected by scholars in the middle of Sichuan. The emperor asked about the scenery in the middle of Sichuan, and the county magistrate said to the cloud, "The mountains and trees on both sides of the strait are connected, and it is customary to crow all day." Filial piety is praised. This shows the popularity and influence of this poem. If the mountain wood is magnificent, then the singing of Zigui is the joy of the sound of the Three Gorges in Sichuan.

Zigui is a cuckoo. This bird is integrated with the soul of poetry. The name of a local newspaper is taken from "Du Fu", and dozens of poems by Liu Xing of Three Gorges were first published in this literary tabloid named "Du Fu". Nourishes the cultural and spiritual connotation that I should write.

The second time, the lonely geese flew away.

Du Fu said, "Whoever pities a shadow will lose a million clouds. I hope I can see it again. I feel more sadness than I smell it. " , a person, a person. An "orphan". There are endless stories of Du Fu's displacement, the desolation of wandering and endless regrets, which are the yearning for his hometown and the lofty pursuit of not falling into the blue sky. Adu scholar Yang Lun is the author of Du Shi Jing Quan. He thinks these two couplets are the best, and they are "good at expressing feelings in the air".

If cuckoo is said, it is more of a political ambition; Then, the lonely goose is more of a state of existence. The combination and sublimation of two birds is Du Fu's poetic style. Personality flaunt-Sha Ou-This is the superposition of concrete and poetic images, and it is the nirvana from the separation of nuclear form to the integration of internal and external.

Yes, the poet wandered in the rivers of the Three Gorges with longing and despair. The poet is depressed in the trough of self-orientation and spiritual pursuit. The mountain blocked the dream of flying high, and the torrent of the Three Gorges just gave the poet new strength at any time, which is an innate, unstoppable, determined and never looking back.

Du Fu, Zi Gui, is a bird belonging to his predecessors. Du Fu can only yearn for and bow to his knees. He is choosing, looking for a bird of his own personality.

Now let's take a look at Teacher Long's research. He wrote that the poet Du Fu was 55 years old when he wrote this set of poems. He knew very well that his great ambition could not be realized, so he quietly thought about his life and summed it up. In this summary, through these birds, there is a kind of lament that talents are lost: "If you open the cage without a day, the old branches will be empty"; There are complaints about those who destroy talents: "The world is both pitied and lost", "Feeding fat and cream to dogs at the same time is not suitable when they grow up"; There is a passage about my lonely and wandering life: "Lonely geese don't drink or peck, but only sing and don't flock"; There are accusations against heartless people: "Wild ducks are in no mood and make trouble"; There is a painful memory of wandering for food: "It will snow when it is dark, and it will drift when the wind comes"-here Mr. Long analyzes Du Fu's parrots, chickens, solitary geese and gulls.

And I, naturally, pay attention to Sha Ou. Interestingly, in the Internet age, it is very convenient to look up the understanding of "Sha Ou" by scholars of past dynasties. I found more than 500 poems about Sha Ou.

Let's take a look at Sha Ou's intuition of the literati after Du Fu.

Miracle, a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem named Sha Ou: "A fishing boat sleeps warmly, and poverty and loneliness are like a flower pavilion. Come to Wanpu in the evening, and it will be peaceful in You Lan, sunny, light and green. Emerald silently repairs wings, and Yuanyang has nothing to do. " This Sha Ou, enjoying alone. Naturally, the poet Bai Juyi is not willing to lag behind. He simply wrote a poem "To Sha Ou", saying, "Sha Ou doesn't know me, but he still avoids falcons. Why not fly into the Han Palace and leave it as a classic? " This unprincipled Sha Ou leads a miserable life. In the Song Dynasty, Yang Wanli once wrote: "I listen to pine branches and deer. I know that Sha Ou will stay. " This Sha Ou actually became a neighbor with the poet and lived in harmony. ...

All these poetic "Sha Ou" were created by the poet Du Fu. In other words, perhaps, it is because Du Fu is "a sandpiper, in a vast, vast world!" And it is in the same boat! It doesn't matter. What is important is that "Sha Ou" has become a "bird of the soul" in the wandering environment and the highest state of mind of the literati.
