On the fourth day after the Little Vest was launched, Xu Lu continued to post a daily update.
However, when choosing which poem to use for today's dynamic content, he suddenly had a new idea.
These days, including when I participated in the competition, I've been using modern poetry, which is clearly a bit unbalanced.
It's important to know that Xu Lu didn't intend to use the pseudonym 'Qinglian Jushi' solely for publishing modern poetry.
Therefore, the post he made today stands out from the crowd.
So when his followers saw the post, they were all shocked.
...
"What... what's going on? Isn't Qinglian Jushi a modern poet? Why is his activity different today?"
"Yes, what happened to the modern poem? Today they actually released an ancient poem."
"My goodness! Could it be that this Qinglian Hermit is not only good at modern poetry, but also at classical poetry?"
"I'm speechless. What a genius! It's one thing to write good modern poetry, but he's also so proficient in classical poetry."
...
"This is amazing! The talent of this Qinglian Hermit is beyond our imagination."
"I was already blown away by yesterday's rendition of 'Spring Blossoms,' but now I realize I was too surprised."
"If life were only as beautiful as our first meeting... Ugh, just that first line gave me goosebumps."
"These lines of poetry are simply too beautiful. Yes, who isn't most captivating and unforgettable at first sight?"
...
"Just when I thought that Qinglian Jushi would still be playing tricks on us from the perspectives of men and women, he had already begun switching between modern and ancient times."
"How can I put it? I just want more of this kind of poetry! I absolutely love it!"
"The heart of an old friend changes so easily...yet they say the heart of an old friend is fickle...two simple lines that perfectly capture the essence of love."
"I'm so upset, who is this Qinglian Jushi? He's so talented! Show me his picture..."
...
More and more fans expressed their amazement upon learning the news.
And this poem, "Magnolia Flower Order," has become known to everyone.
It turns out that what this Qinglian Jushi (a Taoist priest) knew was not just modern poetry.
Those most shocked by this are undoubtedly the people in the modern poetry circle.
Originally, upon seeing one modern poem after another by "Qinglian Jushi," these people were already filled with envy and jealousy beyond measure.
But then I saw that the other person could even write classical Chinese poems so well.
The people in the modern poetry circle are all on the verge of depression.
Because if this Qinglian Jushi (a poet) is merely a modern poet, then there is still a glimmer of hope for everyone to catch up.
But now that I've discovered that the other person is also so accomplished in classical poetry, what's the point of pursuing them anymore?
"Where did this guy come from? How come he wasn't famous before?"
"Exactly! Especially since I discovered that this Qinglian Jushi is already a member of our Modern Poetry Association, but I still can't find any specific information about him. It's unbelievable!"
"I thought it was because my level wasn't high enough that I couldn't see it. Turns out you can't see it either. This person is too mysterious."
"Ahem, I heard that it was a special approval from the chairman. This time, we will use Qinglian Jushi to strike at that Xu guy."
...
"The one surnamed Xu? Which Xu? Why should we target him?"
"Are you forgetful, you surnamed Xu! Xu Lu!"
That's the guy who trampled our modern poetry circle underfoot before!
"That's right! Last time, many masters in our poetry circle were humiliated by that kid."
Even Chairman Zhou suffered a setback at the hands of that kid surnamed Xu; that guy is our public enemy!
"So, what do you all think? Who has a better chance of winning between Qinglian Jushi and that Xu Lu?"
...
Just as everyone was discussing whether 'Qinglian Jushi' or 'Poetry Circle Public Enemy' was more powerful.
Shen Zizhen, a renowned modern poet in the literary circle, was also amazed by the brilliance of this "Magnolia Flower Order":
"Old Zhang, I already thought highly of this Qinglian Hermit, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated him."
If the other person was only good at modern poetry, I thought I could compete with them.
But now it seems I was too arrogant; I simply couldn't compose this kind of classical-style poetry.
His friend Zhang Xi immediately asked in surprise:
"Is this Qinglian Hermit really that amazing?"
While I also think this poem is very well written, it shouldn't make you appear to have given up without a fight, right?
Shen Zizhen sighed deeply before saying:
"Ah, thankfully you write essays, so you don't have to experience the despair I'm feeling right now."
Let me put it this way.
If the difficulty of modern poetry is on the scale of one to ten, then the difficulty of classical Chinese poetry is on the scale of ten to one hundred.
No matter how well Qinglian Jushi writes modern poetry, it is still within the range of difficulty level '10'.
But he was also proficient in classical Chinese poetry, which directly broke through the difficulty limit of 'ten', leaving everyone feeling hopeless.
After hearing this, Zhang Xi finally understood.
Although he felt that his friend had exaggerated a bit, seeing the other person's dejected expression meant that although it was exaggerated, it was probably not far off.
"Who exactly is this Qinglian Hermit? By the way, Old Shen, isn't he a member of your association anymore?"
Zhang Xi suddenly asked a question.
Shen Zizhen shook his head, looking puzzled, and said:
"I was actually curious about this too, but it's strange that he also used a pseudonym when he joined the association."
As for the true information, I think only Chairman Zhou in the entire association knows it.
