Hu Yangfu

Populus euphratica is a relic ancient tree species of the Tertiary period. It is a kind of primitive tree species with strong vitality. It is known as a warrior fighting against the desert. The growth period of Populus euphratica is long. Due to the influence of wind, sand and drought, many Populus euphratica trees have peculiar and strange shapes. Because of its amazing ability to resist drought, wind and sand, salt and alkali, it can survive and reproduce in the desert tenaciously. There is a saying that "life will not die for a thousand years, death will not fall for a thousand years, but fall for a thousand years". Tian Shanke, a famous Fu writer, interprets the spirit of Populus euphratica in the form of Fu!

Hu Yangfu

On the ancient site of Beiting, beside the Mulei River, the sand is singing, the hills are moving, and the trees are desolate. In the distant memory of "Diwo and quanzi", the reed flowers in the river bed are also melancholy; don't be surprised that the holy land is muddy, and the Dushan mountain is lost. Look at the sky in the south, the west, the sun and the sea. Among all living beings, Xun is the pride of heaven and Ruihua; ye ye and Populus euphratica make the blood flow. Cluster tendons Ao bone, square its meet frightening attention; sudden branches Ling Jing, different green vulgar Fang. The red leaves and the setting clouds are set against each other; the wild geese are flying far away with camel bells. Intoxicated and enchanted, I look at the horizontal carving of Shuo desert; it is extremely shocking, and there are many iron bones hidden. You can't eliminate the essence and vigorous Qi. See its different willows, scattered cloth Chang. Solemn and high, vast and boundless, honest and upright, plain and unsophisticated in scale, magnificent and dignified outside the hustle and bustle. Those who live with lofty spirit are not close to mountains and rivers. Those who stand in the scorching sun are stronger and stronger. In the face of sandstorm, the devil is not allowed to abuse; in the face of barriers, the root will be deep. I admire you for your health, for your ambition, and for your respect. He has a broad face and lofty sentiments, and he has a quiet mind and a good character. It's quite Lingyun's moral integrity. It's quiet and nostalgic. It refers to Qingming's opposition. It's rather generous. The profundity of Mt. Tianshan is the radiance of Jinhua, and the moistening of glaciers is not the result of wind and snow. It is clear and honest to agree with heaven, but it is not crazy to work hard with the world.

The style is clear and the appearance is ancient, which stores the memory of hundreds of millions of years; the color is strict and the spirit is resolute, which has experienced the vicissitudes of thousands of calamities. Sigh the day, East born West not, but can take your face; Shu sweat, Yan Biao Li strong, in vain to increase your glory. With the quality of being dry and lofty, the hardness and softness will surge with it; with the ambition, the snowstorm will become frivolous. Send the Silk Road business trip far away, cover the ancient city wall. Protect the Yellow sheep, the jade rabbit, the fox and the wolf. The music and dance of Kazak are echoing in our ears, and the songs of Wang Luobin are accompanied by Li Niang. In addition, it also reflects on the prosperity of the western ancient country and the sadness of sweeping the iron horse. The heroic spirit of a hero's wine and the masculinity of a swordsman's sword. Let the old enemy respect straight, cowards generous; jindiazhenyuan, decadent thinking die.

When a man of lofty ideals keeps his integrity, he stands in the field of wolves; when a loyal minister goes to justice, he stands in the wilderness of the bottom. Dignity is priceless, but it is a mirage; integrity is eternal, and it supports heaven in the heart. The golden wind drags the color, splashes the color of blood into the sky; the spirit of the Jedi inhabits the body, and allows the body to experience the wind and frost. As soon as the axe is collected, the great spirit of the former husband is shocked; as the thunder rises, the drum of power is sonorous. If the stone teeth are broken, the Populus euphratica will flourish; if the sand flow is not collected, the Populus euphratica will die. In silence, there is the dragon of meditation; in motion, there is the King Kong of protecting the way. He is the immortal desert God, and he is the king of wood in the wilderness.

Without Populus euphratica, we don't know the magnificence of the scenery; without Populus euphratica, we don't know the glory of life. The fierce horse roars, the pride outside the Great Wall is strong; the smoke is no longer strong, and the internal power of the nation is strong. The essence of thousands of works is how to form its spirit; the aphorism of thousands of books is difficult to appreciate its poetry. The gods of grass and wood come from afar to capture the beauty and marvel; the swordsmen of Yue and the sea visitors only worship and burn incense. Kazakh music and dance seem to reverberate in my ears, while Wang Luobin's songs are accompanied by young Li Niang. Tianshan guest's heart is shaken, and he opens his mind to sing. The poem says: the soul of the desert will not die for thousands of years, and it will not stay for thousands of years. One thousand years is still proud, eternal is the root of the dragon.
