A brief introduction to the contents of miscellaneous notes in the mountains. Bing Xin's favorite literary form is prose, and her prose often gives readers a sense of beauty similar to lyric poetry and landscape painting. Motherly love and childlike innocence occupy an important position, and her prose is clear, flexible, fresh and beautiful. Miscellaneous notes in the mountains is to talk about the comparison between "sea" and "mountain" in a childlike naive, stubborn and extreme tone, striving for "the sea is much stronger than the mountain" from the aspects of color, movement, vision and perspective, and even cursing and swearing: "If I commit suicide, I would rather throw myself into the sea than fall off a cliff"! However, the feelings and thoughts about color are mature, and the discussion about color contains rich, philosophical, historical and even psychological contents, resulting in completely modern aesthetic consciousness and evaluation. The words describing "sea" in this paper can best show Bing Xin's prose artistic personality.
