Origin Story
话说唐朝时期，有一位名叫李白的诗人，他非常喜欢游山玩水。有一天，他来到一座风景秀丽的山谷中，这里山清水秀，鸟语花香。突然，下了一场大雨，雨过天晴后，李白发现山谷里长满了各种各样的竹笋，密密麻麻，数不胜数。那些竹笋破土而出，如同一个个顽皮的孩子，争先恐后地探出头来，展现它们蓬勃的生命力。李白看着这壮观的景象，不禁感慨万千，于是写下了一首诗，来赞美这雨后春笋般的景象。
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a poet named Li Bai who loved to travel to mountains and waters. One day, he came to a beautiful valley with clear water and beautiful mountains and singing birds and fragrant flowers. Suddenly, a heavy rain fell, and after the rain, Li Bai discovered that the valley was full of various kinds of bamboo shoots, densely packed and countless. These bamboo shoots broke out of the ground, like a group of naughty children, scrambling to show their vigorous vitality. Seeing this spectacular sight, Li Bai couldn't help but sigh, and then wrote a poem to praise this scene of bamboo shoots after the rain.
