Origin Story

话说唐朝诗人卢纶，有一次送一位姓韦的朋友去远方赴任，路途遥远，他们走了好几天，才来到一个山区。天色渐晚，下起了大雨，于是他们只好在山中的一个寺庙里暂住。夜晚，寺庙里显得格外寂静，只有雨声和风声。然而，这寂静很快就被打破了。第二天清晨，他们离开寺庙，继续赶路。路上，他们遇到了一支商队，商队人马众多，骡马成群，队伍绵延数里。一时间，人喊马嘶，热闹非凡，与前一天夜晚的静谧形成了强烈的反差。卢纶不禁感叹：这人生啊，就像这山间天气变化一样，难以捉摸。

It is said that the Tang Dynasty poet Lu Lun once accompanied a friend surnamed Wei on a long journey. After several days, they reached a mountainous area. As dusk approached, it began to rain, so they sought shelter in a mountain temple. That night, the temple was quiet; only the sound of rain and wind could be heard. This quiet was soon broken, however. The next morning, they left the temple and continued their journey. On the way, they encountered a large caravan with many people and animals. Suddenly, it was a loud commotion of people shouting and horses neighing, a lively contrast to the quiet of the night before. Lu Lun sighed: Life is like the unpredictable weather in the mountains.
