Author: Lin Shu
Xia Rongbo happened to be fond of the past and was hidden in Qixi. Yu, Chen Jishi and Gao Xiaotong bought a boat to visit. About Xun Mei in Chaoshan. From the stream to the boat, follow Asase to the north of Chaoshan. Plum blossoms have been seen along the coast. Xu Li, follow the land to Xianghai Tower and see Song Mei. Plum body half withered, square water times; Gu Gan bowed, his body was covered with moss, and his teeth were scales. Over the years, the color of moss has turned bronze. There are more than a dozen trees next to them, and Rongbo's handwriting is very clear. The scenery is gloomy and rambling, and I will come back. Rong Bo led me through the Tang Yuqian Temple, with flowers: criss-crossing correction, jade and snow in the same color; Take the path of Med step by step. Far away in the forest, near Yantuo; Onion powder accumulates in the valley. After a few or four miles, the plum blossom began to appear, the pine trees lined up, and the sound of the stream was heard. The rest of the ships have stopped on the seto. I'll take a step, and the boat will take the water and follow the stream, and the road will be as suitable as possible. It's still late at night.
Chi Ming, after a boat goes around the south of the mountain, flowers benefit more than the north of the mountain. Wild water and ancient trees stagnate, and the path branches into eight or nine roads, ending in Mei. When it comes to Ganyuan view, it is called water cave. The pool is clear, the rocks are angry, and the water is attached to the wall. Stone notch
The shadows are dim. The stone vein leads directly to the dry hole. The view of the dry cave is on the right. More than 30 levels, and the mouth of the cave, deep in the darkness, there is the sound of feng shui swaying. Colleagues Chen and Diliao brothers managed to get into Ruo, but they didn't get out of the hole. On the right side of the pool, three characters "Haiyun Cave" were engraved, and Song Zhaoqing also presented a pen. Looking for the stone statue of Ding and his son, it has peeled off and the poem is still faintly readable. Jonbo rice, in my opinion. Yu Ju sighed, seeing plum blossoms in my life, not so salty. Rong said, "After the winter snow, the flowers bloom strangely." However, there are two or more Xixi, both of which have lost plum blossoms. Today, however, I wrote Plum Blossoms in Super Mountain, one for Rong Bo and the other for my friend Chen Shouci in Fuzhou. Shouci also likes plums.

Classical Chinese Translation of Plum Blossom
Xia Rongbo, a person who loves ancient cultural relics, lives in seclusion on Qixi. Chen Jishi and Gao Xiaotong and I rented a boat to visit him and made an appointment to go to Chaoshan to enjoy plum blossoms. We changed a boat on the stream and sailed along the shallow stream flowing from the sand to the north of Chaoshan. Plum blossoms can already be seen along the coast. After walking for about a mile, I walked along the stream to Xianghai Mansion and watched the famous Song Mei. Plum trees are half withered and stand at the water's edge. The branches of old Gu Zhuo are winding, and the trees are covered with moss, which are arranged as neatly as fish scales. Because of the age, the moss has turned bronze. There are more than a dozen plum trees next to Song Mei, and Rong Bo told me that they all belong to the Ming Dynasty. I saw that the scenery around me was very cold and not very glorious, so I lost interest and was ready to return. Yung Wing led me forward through the Tang Yuqian Temple, just to see the magnificent plum blossom. Plum trees are staggered and white; Close planting on high and low slopes. Everyone strolled in Merlin Xue Hai. The fragrance of plum blossoms permeates the mountains, just like overlapping plain silks, piling up valleys. We walked about four miles out of Mui Wo, but we saw rows of gloomy pine trees, and we could hear the sound of streams at the foot of the mountain. It turned out that the small sampan we were riding had stopped on the water. We walked on the shore, the boatman rowed on the water, and everyone walked along the stream until the path came to an end. We went back to Qixi that night.
At dawn the next day, we still took a small sampan to the south of Chaoshan, where there were more plum blossoms than in the north. The stream is vast and remote, with dense branches and leaves of ancient trees. The path on the shore branches into eight or nine roads, extending to the edge of Meilin. We came to Gan Yuan Pass and visited the water tunnel. The water pool in the cave is crystal clear, and grotesque stones stand on the water. The water pool infiltrates Shi Gen, and those grotesque stones are cracked and covered with dark green moss. Judging from the texture of the stone, Ben and the dry hole are integrated. This dry cave is close to the Gan Yuan landscape and leans to the right. Climbing more than 30 stone steps, I reached the mouth of the cave. It was dark and deep, and only the sound of Feng Shui was heard. The brothers Chen and Chen Diliao, who came to play together, lit torches and went into the cave, but they came back before they reached the bottom of the cave. The rock beside the pool is engraved with three characters "Haiyun Cave", written by Zhao Bian, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty. Looking for the stone statues of Ding and his son again, they have been mottled and fallen off, and only the poems on the stone tablets are still faintly visible. Rongbo invited me to Gan Yuan for lunch, and I couldn't help but raise my glass, because the plum blossoms I have seen in my life are not as dense and prosperous as here. However, Rong Bo said to me, "If the winter snow passes, the plum blossoms here will become more and more exotic and beautiful, far more prosperous than watching Xixi, a plum blossom resort." I have been to Xixi twice, but unfortunately the plum blossoms are not in full bloom. Now, all I have to do is write an article called "Super Mountain Plum Blossoms", one for Rong Bo and one for my friend Chen Shouci in Fuzhou. Shouci is also a person who loves plum blossoms.
Appreciation of Chaohua's Works
This article is Lin Shu's travel notes after visiting Chaoshan and enjoying plum blossoms in Hangzhou. From 65438 to 0899, Lin Shu was hired by Chen Xixian, a fellow villager in Renhe County, Hangzhou, to give lectures in Dongcheng, Hangzhou. So he bid farewell to his hometown where he lived for 47 years and moved his family to Hangzhou. It was also at this time that after teaching in Hangzhou, Lin Shu often visited the famous mountains and rivers in Hangzhou with friends, lingering in the beautiful scenery of paradise on earth, and wrote ancient travel notes such as Yun Qi, Jiuxi Eighteen Rivers, Super Mountain Plum Blossom, Huahuawu, and Pan Yue in the middle of the lake. It was not until the winter of 190 1 that Lin Shu left Hangzhou where he had lived for nearly three years and applied for admission to Beijing. The full text expresses the author's thoughts and feelings of loving Hangzhou's landscape. [2]
