Wen Fu written by Lu Ji, a scholar in Wei and Jin Dynasties.
The original excerpt is as follows:
At first, I listened to videos and worried about the news. Focus on octupole and go to Wan Ren. The reason is also that the feelings are lingering and fresh, and things are clear. Pour out the juice of the word combination and wash the fragrance of the six arts. Floating in the sky and the depths of spring. Therefore, swimming with a fishhook leads to deep water; Floating algae, if John is rewarded with a bird's tassel, falls like a cloud.
The translation is as follows:
Begin to create, carefully conceive. Concentrate, search everywhere. God flies over the octupole, and his heart is proud. The arrival of Si Wen, like the rising sun, began to dim and gradually became clear. At this point, the images are clear and mutual. The essence of history swarms in.
Six arts are full of words and expressions. Galloping imagination, rolling up and down. Suddenly floating on the Tianchi Lake, suddenly diving in the underground spring. Some words are difficult, such as fish caught from a deep hole; Sometimes words are very light, like a bird with an arrow falling in the sky.

Creation background
Starting from the Wei and Jin Dynasties and going through the Southern and Northern Dynasties, including the early Tang Dynasty, it is the first paragraph of China's medieval literature. Looking at the literature of this period in an all-round way is marked by the prosperity of May 4th new poetry. The Five Ancient Dynasties reached its climax in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the Seven Ancient Dynasties and the Five Seven Words reached their peak in the early Tang Dynasty. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, great changes have taken place in literature, including the consciousness of literature and the individualization of literary creation.
Among these changes, it is the most remarkable, which has triggered a series of other changes and developments. During this period, the court played a central role and formed a literary group centered on the court. The convergence within the group makes literature present a group style at this time and another style at another time, which makes the stages of literature development quite obvious.
This work was created under such a background.
