Brief introduction to You Songshan's diary:
Diary of You Songshan is an essay by Xu Xiake, a writer in Ming Dynasty. Travel notes are written from the periphery of Songshan Mountain, showing the beautiful scenery around Songshan Mountain, such as the strange peaks and strange waters in Luxiang and the Gu Song Yuli in Tianshan Academy. , and described and analyzed the stream path under the mountain. With this wonderful foreshadowing, the rare atmosphere of entering Songshan Mountain was rendered.
Appreciation of works:
Songshan Mountain, also known as Song Yue, Xuanyue and Zhongyue, is the first of the five mountains. It is divided into two parts: Taishi Mountain and Shao Shi Mountain, bounded by Shaolin River. Taishi Mountain is like a big screen in the north of Dengfeng County, and Shaoshi Mountain is like a giant lotus, standing tall in the west of Dengfeng County.
Ancient caves are called stone chambers, and there are holes in the mountains, which are commensurate with stone chambers. Xu Xiake also used "stone room" in his travel notes. Known as the "hometown of cultural relics", Songshan Mountain is one of the three wonders of the Eastern Han Dynasty (Taishi, Shao Shi and Qi Mu). Song Yue Temple Pagoda built in the Northern Wei Dynasty is very famous, and there are also inscriptions and temples in previous dynasties.
When I arrived at Luyan Temple, it was like a waterfall, and it was quite successful to describe the intersection of rocks. The description of the top of Taishi Mountain introduces the travel notes to the investigation of the most central part of Songshan Mountain, which fully shows the greatness of Taishi Mountain. Later, we described the location of peaks, caves and temples, the advantages and disadvantages of canyons and running water one by one.
Finally, with the climax of boarding the small room, the Shaolin Temple, Julie's safe flight, the alchemy platform and the small room are described in detail, and their forests are developed to the fullest. The full text is full of twists and turns, the layout is rigorous, and the vividness of its language is extremely rare.
