690 庄 Zhuangzi Comprehensive Reading It's Really Hard to Come up with a NameHistorical189k WordsCompleted 61Reads5.8Score—Shelves

Reader note

Zhuangzi is the most poetic thinker in the history of Chinese philosophy. His words are like a roc spreading its wings. "If the water is not thick, it will not be able to carry a large boat." His unrestrained imagination carries profound philosophical thoughts. Li Bai once described his "materialized" state with the words "Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies, and butterflies are Zhuang Zhou." Su Shi even bluntly said, "I have seen Zhuangzi in the past, but I couldn't express it. Now I see Zhuangzi, and it has won my heart." This shows that the charm of his thoughts has penetrated through thousands of years. Opening "Zhuangzi", what comes to mind is the cosmology of "Heaven and earth and I coexist, and all things and I are one". He started with the fable of "There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun", and the magnificent image of Kunpeng "the water hits three thousand miles, and the force surges up ninety thousand miles" has become a totem of spiritual transcendence for later generations of literati. Wang Wei wrote in "The Lacquer Garden" that "Occasionally send a small official, a few whirling trees", which is a poetic interpretation of Zhuangzi's philosophy of "uselessness" - instead of chasing fame in the world, it is better to be like those whirling trees and stretch out the true nature of life in nature. Zhuangzi's wisdom lies not only in his carefree travels in the world, but also in his insight into the nature of life. The warning "My life has a limit, but my knowledge has no limit" breaks through the limitations of human cognition; the fable of "It is better to forget each other than to stay together" exemplifies the philosophy of letting go in difficult situations. Tao Yuanming's awakening in "Returning to Lai Ci" that he "understands the past and does not admonish him, and knows that he who has come can pursue him" is exactly the life practice of Zhuangzi's thought of "being at peace in time and place in good order". This "Old Immortal from South China" "discussed noble opinions and spoke mighty wonders" in the lacquer garden. He used the skill of "cooking the cattle" to illustrate the wisdom of "taking advantage of the world with nothing", and used the fable of "death of chaos" to warn mankind of excessive intervention in nature. His words are like a bright mirror that "does not welcome nor welcome, responds but does not hide", reflecting the true nature of all things in the world. From Li Bai's immortal spirit to Su Shi's open-mindedness and detachment, from Wang Wei's seclusion in Wangchuan to Tao Yuanming's pastoral return, Zhuangzi's spirit has always flowed in the blood of Chinese civilization, providing the ultimate answer to every troubled soul: "Those who are in harmony with heaven are called heavenly happiness."

719 再 Following the Bloody Tang Dynasty, the Chess Game Comes to an End Daodao Returns to the WorldEastern Fantasy386k WordsCompleted 3Reads5.8Score—Shelves

Reader note

[Imaginary·Epic·Policy·Farming·War] Taking the Wuzhou Yingzhou Rebellion as the starting point and the Anshi Rebellion as the situation, we reconstruct the darkest moment when the Tang Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline. Li Qingtian descended from the black hole and became the prince of the Northern Realm. The Buddha Lotus in his left eye calmed the inner demons, and the magic pattern in his right eye burned the past life. There is no system affiliation, only the fire power plays with people's hearts. What he faced was the real and cruel Tang Dynasty: the iron fist of the empress, the undercurrent of the princes, and the eunuchs' manipulation of power; the Khitan took advantage of the dark sun to knock on the pass, and the Huihe and Tubo were eyeing Longyou; there were also whispers of ancient gods, the sneaking of secret sects, and the chess game three thousand years ago was quietly restarted. But this book is not just about war - he planted potatoes on the scorched earth, built a mass grave on the mountain of corpses, replaced the cruel laws with "New Laws", and exchanged a bowl of hot porridge for the return of all people. High-burning killing × profound humanity × open world style × collision of multiple civilizations (Tang, Dashi, Eastern Rome, Turks, Tubo). Every coup is based on historical data, and every character has flesh and blood: Guo Ziyi is loyal but not stupid, Pugu is grieved but not rebellious, Yang Yuhuan transforms into an envoy to stir up the storm... This is not a cool article, but a tragic epic about how mortals recast China in the shadow of gods and demons. ——The dark sun can cover the sky, but the human heart cannot be destroyed

If you're fed up with assembly-line cool articles, try this one. It uses the most exquisite classical brushwork to weave a huge psychological web. On the surface it is a rebirth house fight, but on the inside it is a profound anatomy of trauma and obsession. The plot is full of foreshadowing, and the shocking twist at the end brings new life to all the previous details, which is worth revisiting three times. A philosophical inquiry about "letting go". Suitable for mature readers to calm down and immerse themselves in.

Reader note

This is a national epic of the Republic of China. It takes the situation from the early Republic of China to the eve of liberation as the scene, and writes about the destiny and inheritance in troubled times. The novel is based on the Jia family of merchants and the Kong family of gentry. It follows the growth trajectory of the adopted son Jia Zhixiang, traveling north and south, witnessing warlords' melee, the war of resistance against Japan and the changes of the times. He and Kong Wenxiu, Miss Kong's family, knew each other well and stayed true to their true nature and integrity amidst the turmoil. Politicians, literati, celebrities, craftsmen, and warlords appear one after another in the book, using daily fireworks to describe the vicissitudes of the times, and using meticulous details to restore the customs and character of the Republic of China. The work reflects the history of the family and the country with the history of the family. It is gentle, restrained, and elegant. It writes a long scroll of the floating world of the Republic of China that is both pyrotechnic and bookish.
