Miluo belongs to Yueyang City. As the Dragon Boat Festival is held in Yueyang, this year's event is the biggest. Not only did it move the main venue of the dragon boat race from Yueyang Nanhu to the Miluo River, but it also had closer ties with Qu Yuan and the scene was more spectacular. Besides, Yu Guangzhong, a famous poet, was invited from Taiwan Province as the chief priest, and he recited his new work Miluo, which was specially created for the Dragon Boat Festival. I have been to Quzi Temple many times, but this time it is very different from the past. He used to be a tourist in a scenic spot and a pilgrim in a poetic country. Today, he is a guest at the sacrificial ceremony. As soon as we entered the atrium of the inner hall of the gate, under the drizzling sky, before the full court of Chinese and foreign dragon boat athletes, we lined up with yellow ribbons, followed by Tan Tan, me, Han Shaogong and Hendrick Qin Asen, the author of Cao Cao and Yang Xiu. I don't know which version of the chief priest wearing a blue robe and a black coat and the master of ceremonies wearing a hemp hat have been passed down from generation to generation, and are solemnly carrying out modern antique sacrificial ceremonies. At 9: 09, Hunan Satellite TV began to broadcast live to the whole country. Outside the Quzi Temple, buzzing voices, loud firecrackers and solemn gongs and drums suddenly went out, leaving only the master of ceremonies to give orders in front of the microphone in the temple. Witness the 20-minute ceremony before and after, in addition to many TV stations and reporters' long guns and short guns, there is also a portrait of Qu Yuan painted on the back wall. Qu Yuan, dressed in plain clothes and depressed, was surrounded by the couplets of "three evocation, nine songs on the wall", as if overlooking the full court of sacrificial ceremonies and listening to the half-bright and half-dark rural headland chanting eulogy.

I squinted at Yu Guangzhong. At the first sacrifice, he had completely lost his usual shower head, and his mind was full of meaningful words. I remember that he was invited to Hunan six years ago in autumn. I accompanied him for half a month and went to Quzi Temple once. He once said, "When you came to Miluo River and Quzi Temple, you came to the source of China's poetry and found the sense of belonging of the poet and the nation. After returning to Taiwan Province, I should have a poem to give to Qu Yuan. " At that time, the host asked him to write an inscription, and he left the following words on the rice paper: "The end of the martyr is the starting point of the poet? /In the past, you asked the sky, but today I asked the river/but the river didn't answer, only the water blew to Taitai/Youxi and went to Miluo. " I once wrote a poem "A Collection of Poems by Chu Yunxiang Yu Ji" to record Yu Guangzhong's trip to Hunan. He said that thanks to my records, he was able to use the above inscription as the opening of his new book "God of the Miluo River" six years later. I said, a word is predestined friends into an article, just like a broken jade is synthesized into a whole jade, and a pearl is worn into a necklace.

In Miluo City, by the Miluo River, colorful flags are dancing in the wind, and banners with white characters on a red background are extremely urgent. Many banners read "The Miluo River is upstream of the blue ink". Many years ago, I used this sentence of Yu Guangzhong as a topic to express my impression of him. Unexpectedly, it spread like wildfire and entered many articles of others. Today, it also left, flying into the publicity materials printed in Miluo City and flying on the banners that spread in the air. Yu Guangzhong's works and so on, he can't remember the origin of this language, just as parents have forgotten the place where their children were born. Now Yu Guangzhong has finally come to the upper reaches of the Lanmo River in the Miluo River. On the shore of the upper reaches, on the beach on the shore, an observation deck that can accommodate thousands of people has been built. Facing the sea of about 300,000 people on both sides of the strait and the endless Miluo River, Yu Guangzhong, accompanied by 600 primary and middle school students dressed in Tsing Yi and red, recited the God of Miluo River, a sacrifice in his heart, in standard Mandarin. The dragon boat on the water, the ichthyosaur under the water, and the descendants of the dragon sons on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are all listening to Yu Guangzhong's calm and sonorous voice of stones and chorus with many schoolchildren through loudspeakers.

After the song, I told Yu Guangzhong that we had been down-to-earth on the shore, but you insisted that we "fell" from the water. It was really a good poem. I'm afraid your "depravity" and "redemption" refer to the current world trend. Yu Guangzhong nodded yes, but he said it was not entirely true, including the current depressed poems. Some poets strongly deny the excellent tradition of the nation, completely "westernize", are keen on expressing trivial personal feelings, and completely "internalize", which is followed by "lower body writing", and I don't know how to cross the sink. Now some people are very arrogant, denying not only Yue Fei and Fan Zhongyan, but also Jia Yi and Qu Yuan. Fortunately, they can't be defeated. If Qu Yuan and others are not recognized, what is left of our nation? Beside the Miluo River, besides Qu Yuan, there is Du Fu. As early as 1979, the lover of Du Fu wrote a long poem "Death of Xiang-Du Fu's Monologue on the Ship Before His Death". He said that Du Fu missed Qu Yuan and appreciated each other before his death. Why didn't Yu Guangzhong think of hanging Du Fu when he offered sacrifices to Qu Yuan? Isn't the upstream of the blue ink the Miluo River? Du Fu's cemetery is located in Odamura, Pingjiang County, located in the upper reaches of the Miluo River and the upper reaches of the blue ink. After the sacrificial ceremony, we went from Miluo to Pingjiang. On the country road from Pingjiang County to Odamura, I finally told Yu Guangzhong not to rack his brains. I have found the birthplace of his children, and they are almost afraid to claim it. The upstream of the blue ink is the Miluo River, which is published in his 1977 edition of Youth and Sorrow by Taiwan Province Pure Literature Publishing House.
