The famous sayings in the Yueyang Tower are as follows:
1. Holding the distant mountains, swallowing the Yangtze River, the vast water stretches endlessly; the sun shines in the morning and the evening clouds, the weather is endless.
The word "title" and the word "swallow" gave him an overview of the Yueyang Tower he had seen in other works. These two books directly open up our senses. They are like pearls and jade, and they are so heroic that we can't help but read them again and again. The mountains are verdant and the Yangtze River is mighty. It stands proudly, welcoming the morning glow and sending off the afterglow. Its majestic momentum is unstoppable!
2. The rain is falling, and the moon is not open; the wind is howling, the turbid waves are emptying; the sun and stars are hidden, and the mountains are invisible.
This sentence describes the extremely gloomy scenery, which coincides with the friend's mood at this time. Rebuilding the Yueyang Tower is a good thing. Even if you are angry, will a frustrated person still look desolate when standing on this tower? The three words "I understand you" couldn't be more obvious in this paragraph. The author first suppresses and then expands in order to highlight the subsequent words of praise. This paragraph is too much to read and makes me depressed.
3. The spring scenery is bright and calm, and the sky above and below is bright and clear.
Who doesn’t love the feeling of clarity that suddenly comes to your mind when you see this sentence? The beautiful spring light is reflected in the water in front of Yueyang Tower. The vast expanse is like a mirror, with endless views and a panoramic view of the heaven and earth.
4. Sand gulls gather together and golden scales swim; the shore is covered with orchids, lush green.
White gulls are flying or resting, gathering in groups by the water. The fish in the water swim around freely. The grass on the shore and the blooming orchids all carry the hope of spring, so beautiful.
5. The long smoke is gone, the bright moon is thousands of miles away, the floating light leaps into gold, and the silent shadow sinks into the jade.
When night comes, the water vapor is steaming. The bright moon is in the sky, illuminating the water infinitely. "Floating light leaps into gold, but still shadow sinks into jade." The most vivid description of scenery in "The Story of Yueyang Tower" is the scattered golden light when the wind blows and the water wrinkles. The water surface is calm, and the silent full moon is reflected in the water, as exquisite and clear as the legendary jade.
6. Don’t be happy with things, and don’t be sad with yourself.
How many people read this and felt their hearts tremble suddenly? A couplet written by Hong Yingming in the Ming Dynasty: "Don't be surprised by favor or disgrace, just watch the flowers blooming and falling in front of the court. There is no intention to go or stay, just follow the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky." Isn't it this kind of state? The tall Yueyang Tower does not determine the weather, but its cloudy and sunny scenery can affect our mood.
