Walking Slowly on White Sand

Ku Wuji · AI Writing · Comedy in an Ancient Setting · Complete · 1 chapter · 0 reads

Han Liu loses track of his master’s newly purchased prized horse, crashes into three baskets of spring flowers, and even runs out of one shoe. He Xing, a woman washing horses beneath the willows, laughs that he knows only coat colors, not hoofprints, and points to tracks in the mud, telling him to search along another road. People are still waiting at the pavilion to admire the horse, while another pair of hands has already seized its reins beside the lake; amid the laughter of springtime visitors, old wounds on a horse’s body are slowly coming to light.

This work was created by AI, inspired by the poetic imagery of Bai Juyi’s 《钱塘湖春行》 (A Spring Outing by Qiantang Lake). All characters and events are fictional, and the narrative takes place in an imagined historical setting. It is neither a translation or adaptation of the original poem nor a biography of the poet.
