People who can't get out of the old times: the coffin is worn on the body

In the past two days, I accidentally turned to a new interpretation of an ancient text published in 2022. Among them, I selected a letter written by Wang Wei to a friend. I was still talking about how the owner of the letter "loved the lonely cloud and the monk". He added unabashedly: Wang Wei is a great poet and painter, and he knows the art of life very well. He is also a big bureaucrat, has a garden, and has the conditions to create an "artistic life".

I quickly thought of the old men in the school who shook their heads and taught ancient prose. I met a lot of them, not just in school. They seemed to copy and paste from the same book, or soaked in the same dye vat. of. If you are used to listening to these people, you can understand that although he did not say it directly, you also know that he seemed to be tsk tsk in his heart, and he said something about the life of this kind of big bureaucracy combined with great poets and great painters. Unbelievably envious. Or intentionally or unintentionally convey to you that you want to be such a high official in the future, and the artistic life will naturally happen. It has nothing to do with the above-mentioned "Love the lonely cloud, quiet and love the monk", but it becomes a kind of embellishment. A new decoration in luxury living.

So when I closed the book, I saw that there was a line in the introduction that read: "Leading middle-aged and senior-grade elementary school children and traditional culture lovers with shallow roots to follow the orthodox path of Sinology." In other words, these people are the most easily deceived, right? . As for the so-called "orthodox Chinese learning approach", it may be that these seduced people sit together and develop hysteria together. Just used to decorate the otherwise boring life. It’s not always like this, adults can, and I can too. I only regret that I was born a few hundred years late. I regret that I can’t share a table with you to appreciate the legacy works of the previous dynasty that are still used to decorate the aesthetics of the world. When a person dies, even if the things left behind are passed down through the ages, such abuses are inevitable.

But after thinking about it, I felt that although these people who shook their heads were annoying, they explained that Wang Wei's situation was really good. He was originally a combination of "big bureaucrat" and "poet". It is not surprising that this group of people is very clear about the key point, that they must have "conditions" in order to "create an artistic life", so they say such words and express such naked envy. At this point, you don't know which one to be more disappointed with.

It's just a little strange that people living at the end of the twentieth century can criticize Hayao Miyazaki mercilessly: "Living in an air-conditioned mansion in Tokyo praises the absurdity of the pastoral style", but it seems that because they are not in the same era, You can't identify an ancient person like this, mixed with the mood of today's era and unpredictable moral standards, criticize him for living in a well-crafted garden, praising rural life, enjoying a bureaucratic status but "loving solitude and tranquility" Love the monk" is an absurd expression.

But as time accumulates, the feeling of countless people swarming up and one after the other is finally today, and you can no longer hide behind this person or his works, pretending to be a spokesperson, but actually talking about your own absurdity Then, pretending to be someone from centuries ago.

Many people are doing things like this, like finding a huge substitute for themselves, confident that they cannot be defeated, so that he can live in the seventh century AD in his fantasy.

If this "faith" is attacked, he will scream and lie down in this coffin made of copper and iron walls, and either live by the breath of the ghost, or be buried there.
