“Drunken Fisherman Singing in the Sunset” is one of the top ten guqin songs in China. In “Xilutang Qintong,” it is recorded that Lu Guimeng and Pi Rixiu were boating on the Songjiang River, and they saw a fisherman singing while drunk, so they wrote this song. This song is about laughing proudly at the clouds, enjoying the beauty of drunkenness. It was composed for those who are seeking a reclusive life. “The universe in the urn is large, and the sun and the moon in the pot are long.”
