The mountain is not high, but the top is connected with the blue sky. The stream is not deep, but at the bottom you can see the underworld."
- Under the moon, she said with emotion," Because I feel that the moon is clear and bright, and the jade world is deep. It's really a high light, and the earth is clear. I'm thinking of returning to the moon, and I'm reciting a long ancient poem."
- Depicting the living environment," The stone path is covered with moss, and the wooden door is covered with rattan flowers. The mountain lights connected on all sides, and the birds in the forest were noisy. The dense pines and bamboos are green, and the flowers are strange and wonderful. In a remote place, in a thatched cottage with bamboo fences."
- The one who described the woman's beauty said," Zhao Jun's beauty is indeed better than Xi Shi's. Her slender waist slightly opened the golden pendant, and her jade limbs moved lightly with lotus steps. It's hard for Chang'e in the moon to come here, how can the fairy of the nine heavens be like this? The palace make-up is exquisite and extraordinary. It is true that the Queen Mother descended to the Jade Pool."

It is accompanied by wolves and insects, tigers and leopards as groups, deer as friends, and apes as relatives. It sleeps under the stone cliffs at night and travels in the caves in the mountains in the morning. It's true that there's no sixty-year cycle in the mountains."
- The description of the autumn scenery: " The water marks are closed, and the mountain bones are thin. When the red leaves were flying and the yellow flowers were blooming. The frosty sky feels that the night is long, and the white moon shines through the window. There were many fireworks and sunsets in every house, and the lake was cold and the water flowed everywhere. White apple fragrance, red knotweed luxuriant. Orange is green and orange is yellow, willows are withered and grains are beautiful. Wild geese fall in a deserted village and crush reeds. The sound of chickens in a wild shop gathers beans."
- At the beginning of the book, it read," Chaos is not divided into heaven and earth, and no one can see it. Since Pangu broke the world, he opened up a clear and turbid distinction. All living beings admire the highest benevolence and discover that all things are good. If you want to know the Art of Gathering Origin, you must read the Journey to the West."
- There was also 'The moon is clear and cold, and the eight poles are dustless. Deep trees hide birds, the source of the water flows into the Fen River. Flying fireflies scattered shadows, flying through the wild goose word row cloud. I'm waiting at the third watch. I should ask for the truth."
