This is because that they not only have the thought of opposing moral codes, but also bring a contract and travell standard that was different from the former—Making friends as their spiritual purport. Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove that as a representative of RuanJi and JiKang opposed the ancients' like-minded contract and travel, they released their true temperament that was depressed in their heart for a long time, and they made this as an important standard of making friends. Regardless of the height of the official rank and the facial features, even the diverting away from each other in their political stance, they played and talked to each other all by virtue of the same spiritual aspiration and interest. This new contract and travel mode had a deep impact on offspring. Therefore, Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel is a topic which is worth of study in-depth. But now academic circle still has a rough concept of their longitudinal formation process. Based on contracting and travelling, this essay excavates the historical roots of Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel deeply, and analysis the unique in those surroundings. We make the personal features of their contract and travel and the dynamic change of everyone's relationship as the center, thus to deduce that Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel is a new literati relationship which is established in the dominate of emerging independent and freedom ideology, meanwhile, it is also the new choice of people to live style. The main body of this essay is composed of three chapters: ,< The uniqueness of Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel >,< The influence of Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel to people in Jin dynasties >. The first chapter< The development and reengineering of traditional contract and travel order: Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's practice >includes two sections: , .The first section traces back to the form of peoples' contract and travel in former generations. From the Confucian like-minded contract and travel to the buckish contract and travel in the late of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to the elegant gathering of seven leading writers during the Jian'an Period, peoples' contract and travel was gradually paying attention to individual's talent and character, until the emergence of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel. The second section briefly introduces the dark political situation during the late of the Wei Dynasty and the beginning of the Jin Dynasty. After SiMayi was in power, he killed lots of famous people to consolidate his dominate, and Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel was born in the white panic. However, in the thought circle, there was a hot stream of talking about metaphysics. Xuncan, as one of a representative in this, believed that people in Wei and Jin Dynasty should explore the truth of the Confucian classic through the whitewash of Han Dynasty. A lot of founders about metaphysics, Heyan,Wangbi and Xun conducted the argumentation which was in the theme of Laozi and Zhuangzi's thought to save the Confucian thought which was declining increasingly. This thought had a deep impact on Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove, especially Ruanji and Jikang.The second chapter< The uniqueness of Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel >includes three parts: , , .The first section uses the way of comparison between each other. The relationship of Jikang and Shantao was presented by which the truth was that their deep friendship has been hidden in it. The relationship of Jikang and Xiangxiu was presented mainly through their debate about preserving one's health which can show their differences and same in the metaphysics thought. The same interest about wine and the unconventional and unrestrained behavior which called" exceed the Confucian ethical code to let them go to the natural world" made them drinking and singing together in wind and bamboo to realize the shaping of ideal character. Ruanji and Ruanxian, who were uncle and nephew, were in the same. They pursuited the harmonious unify of human and object in drinking and music. Ruanji and Wangrong were not fearful of the law and discipline rite. They abided by political rode carefully, and they had amazing similarity when their mother was died and when they were in the political rode. The relationship of Ruanji and Jikang was the model of Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contract and travel. They had solid agreement in their early years, and this made them tacit understanding highly in their thought. But the upright and accommodation in their character made their have absolutely different fetes. The second section concludes the contract and travel between Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove and the outside in three parts: the impact of hermits to Jikang and Ruanji on their seclusion thought; the appreciative exchange with talented people; the spanned exchange with famous people in political. The third section discusses the escape and redeemed thought in Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. Seven Sages forgot the dark reign in society in wine. And wine not only let their friendship warming, but make them escape successfully in the extrusion of outside environment. Seven Sages realized everyone's redeemed through their highly attainments in music and philosophy. From the supreme praise to the Laozi and Zhuangzi thought to the inner convince of Kongzi, the personalized contract and travel of Seven Sages gave them a distinct coordinate in history.The third chapter< The influence of Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove's contracting and travelling to people in Jin dynasties >includes two sections: , . The first section introduces the imitation of Eight People in Yuankang period to Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. They made their hair confusion and didn't ware clothes, they didn't show their happiness and anger, and they were always drinking and liked talking metaphysics. Thus, we can summarize that the core of their imitation to Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove was to against the feudal ethical code. And then, through the comparison one by one between Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove and Seven Taoists of Buddhism, we can conclude that there were also imitations and comparisons to Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove in the Buddhism circle during the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The second section explains the good and bad evaluation by people to Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove after Jin Dynasty, and Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove provided new artistic material for later in drawing and sculpture.
