Lin Sheng’s character works

"Chronicles of Guizhou Poems" contains several poems by Lin Sheng, one of which is "Lingfeng". The author would like to use this poem and related historical facts to show the fairy scene of Lingfeng in his writing. The poem says:

The beautiful peaks are like Penglai, and the green and exquisite trees are like tailoring.

Mangroves and white clouds surround the medicine stove, and the Qihuayao grass foot alchemy platform.

People picking sesame seeds talk about the edge of the pine path, and immortals riding cranes leave moss on the stones.

At this time, Youyou forgets about the world and decides to win Liu Ruan to the rooftop.

The poet positions Lingfeng as "beautiful" and "green and exquisite". The "beautiful" can be understood as handsome and delicate, and the "different" means different from others. The author believes that Lingfeng can be compared with "Penglai" and "Dantai" where immortals live are comparable.

The following reasons are stated in the poem: The clear and beautiful "Qihua Yaocao" can be found everywhere under the cover of mangroves and green trees. On the roadside of tall and dense pine trees, people picking Ganoderma lucidum are whispering. chat. What are they talking about? Maybe it’s to see who picked the best and most Ganoderma lucidum, maybe it’s to chat about how the weather is going, or maybe it’s to say hello to each other, “Where are you from and where are you going?” There were voices on the quiet mountain road, breaking the silence of the forest. The poet probably had to walk up the mountain alone to appreciate the elegance of the pine path with people talking. The poet also saw the moss on the stone, thought of the "immortal riding a crane", and gathered around the "medicine stove" to taste the delicacies produced in Lingfeng.

What is in the "medicine stove"? There are probably fern moss, shiitake mushrooms, fungus, gastrodia elata, and maybe shredded chicken magnolia and bean curds. Because the founder of the mountain, monk Ranzhi, planted the magnolia trees himself during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. By the Zhengtong period, the trees were full of silver flowers, and the fragrance spread everywhere.

Lin Sheng has a special liking for Lingfeng. It is estimated that he has a good relationship with the monks. On the one hand, he often comes to Lingfeng, and on the other hand, the monks also occasionally go to the city. They have contact with each other. acquaintances and even friends. Perhaps the monks specially invited Lin Sheng, a local military and political official, to taste the delicacies of Lingfeng Mountain. Lin Sheng probably also drank tea with the monks in the temple, played chess, wrote couplets, and recited poems, and the soldiers and civilians had a good time. "Going in the morning and returning at dusk, the scenery in the four seasons is different, and the fun is endless." .

Lingfeng can predict whether it will be sunny or rainy in Bijie. Lin Sheng can use this to learn about farming and care about agricultural production. Lingfeng can also help Bijie produce more talents. Lin Sheng must teach Sun Yin and others Health students come to visit this geomantic treasure. Therefore, Lin Sheng believes that Lingfeng is the sacred "Penglai" and "Dantai" in the hearts of Bijie people.

There is Lingfeng Temple at the foot of Lingfeng Mountain. The temple is named after the mountain. The mountain is the root of the temple, and the temple is the soul of the mountain. The mountain and temple are integrated and famous.

In addition to this poem, Lin Sheng also has a couplet inscribed on Lingfeng Temple, such as "Inscribed on the Zen Room of Lingfeng Temple":

When I wake up and recite Huang Ting, I feel a little Zen heart and the autumn moon is quiet;< /p>

I sing about the white snow when I am happy, and the clouds open in the cave full of poems and books.

Another example is "Su Lingfeng Couplet":

(1)

The morning bell melts into the earth and the moon,

The evening drum The sky is booming and the wind is light.

(2)

The majestic treasure hall is connected to the three pure dharma realms;

The beautiful peaks are like visiting the Nine Palaces Shrine.

(3)

The clouds spit out the mist on the spiritual peak, and disciples descend from the clouds today;

The flying springs are decorated with colors, and this place in the human world is Penglai.

Lin Sheng and Lingfeng accompany each other, chanting Huang Ting, chanting white snow, admiring the autumn moon, bathing in the spring breeze, watching the majestic treasure hall, seeing Lingfeng blowing mist, admiring the colorful flying springs, listening to the evening drums and morning bells, and get a share of " "Zen Heart", reaching the realm of "connecting to the three pure dharma realms" and "traveling to the Nine Palaces of God's Palace", and experiencing the miraculous immortal realm of "defeating Liu Ruan to the rooftop". This "wonderland" is ready to appear and appears on the paper. "Dading Prefecture Chronicles·Ming Dynasty·Tang Dynasty, Cai and Wang Biography·3": Lin Sheng "was well versed in military affairs, and was good at reading. He had the eyes of a Confucian general and was once a palm commander". "The author of "The Collection of Mozhuang" ", people call it "Da". "Cai Shanhui's Epitaph" records: Lin Sheng "pacified the soldiers to control the barbarians, and established the health school to cultivate scholars, and then flourished." He was praised for appeasing the soldiers, controlling the barbarians, and fulfilling his responsibility to defend the land. He was praised for revitalizing the Bijie health school and for Bijie has made due contributions to education and can be regarded as a model for scholars, and Bijie's writing style has been greatly promoted.
