Origin Story

话说唐朝时期,有一个名叫李白的诗人,他天资聪颖,才华横溢,尤其擅长写诗。一日,他与朋友们相约去郊外游玩,途中经过一片开阔的田野。李白看到远处一群孩童正在田野里玩耍,他们个个精力充沛,龙腾虎跃,欢声笑语,充满了活力。李白被他们天真无邪的快乐感染了,于是提笔写下了著名的诗篇《早发白帝城》:

huì shuō táng cháo shí qī, yǒu yī gè míng jiào lǐ bái de shī rén, tā tiān zī cōng yǐng, cái huá héng yì, yóu qí shàn cháng xiě shī. yī rì, tā yǔ péng yǒu men xiāng yuē qù jiāo wài yóu wán, tú zhōng jīng guò yī piàn kāi kuò de tián yě. lǐ bái kàn dào yuǎn chù yī qún hái tóng zhèng zài tián yě lǐ wán shuǎ, tā men gè gè jīng lì chōng pèi, lóng téng hǔ yuè, huān shēng xiào yǔ, chōng mǎn le huó lì. lǐ bái bèi tā men tiān zhēn wú xié de kuài lè gǎn rǎn le, yú shì tí bǐ xiě xià le zhù míng de shī piān 《zǎo fā bái dì chéng》:

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a poet named Li Bai who was known for his sharp mind and immense talent, especially for his poetry. One day, he set out with his friends for an outing in nature and passed a vast field along the way. On the edge of the field, Li Bai saw a group of children playing. Each of them was full of energy and easily skipped across the fields, their joyful voices echoing through the air. The children’s carefree joy deeply impressed Li Bai, so he spontaneously picked up his pen and wrote his famous poem "Early Departure from Bai Di":
