Su Dongpo

The monk said "Dongpo eats grass", which is seamless and natural and playful. Su Shi asked "where is the bald donkey", and the word "bald donkey" sniggered that the monk was bald. ? The monk replied, "Dongpo" eats grass. As we all know, Su Shi's Dongpo Ci is a pun, which refers to both the place and Su Dongpo. Fo Yin hit back at the trend, "You Su Dongpo eat grass." It means Su Dongpo is an animal.

Once Su Shi walked into the temple and asked, "Where is the bald donkey?" The monk conveniently replied, "Dongpo eats grass." We have to admit that this young monk's reaction speed is really amazing, which makes us ordinary people fall behind. Monks in the temple have no desire, stay away from secular life, and have six clean roots. They don't eat wine and meat in the temple all day long, and they don't get close to women, so they cultivate their inner world.

Both sides were joking, but the monk was also spineless, making Su Dongpo "shoot himself in the foot". We know that such a joke is harmless to both sides, but Su Dongpo made fun of him, so he also played a subtle joke with Su Shi. Both the monk and Dongpo are not idle people. They all heard the banter in the tone of both sides and just laughed it off.

This kind of interaction invisibly brings people close together and relaxes the hearts of Su Dongpo and monks, but we can also see the cultural details of Su Dongpo and monks in this interaction. This kind of reaction speed is not for everyone. Only extraordinary experience and rich culture can make such an interesting but harmless joke.
