Shenhao with a learning panel

Chapter 354 Sword Dance

Li Shi said bluntly: "You can tell from the name of the WeChat group. Isn't elegant dance just a classical dance?"

Yang Xiaoxuan: "Brother, you know all this. Did you just search it, or did you know it before? (raised eyebrows and smiled)"

Wan Huizhu: "I guess it was a temporary search. (bad smile)"

A temporary search?

Li Shi couldn't help but stretched out his hand to touch his chin, and then continued typing:

"Is there any search here? This is common sense in high school Chinese. The three parts of "The Book of Songs" are Feng, Ya, and Song. Ya refers to the music and songs during the court banquets or court meetings in the Zhou Dynasty, that is, formal elegant music, which corresponds to The dance is also the elegant dance.”

"In addition, Feng and Song. Feng is the local music of various places at that time, and Song is the dance song and song of the ancestral temple. They are all related to dance... These are things in Chinese textbooks. It seems that you art students have not studied them well before. Take a Chinese class. (Smirking)”

"Actually, if you want to learn art, especially classical art, to a higher level, you still need to read more books and learn more cultural knowledge."

After he sent out three messages, the group suddenly became quiet.

There was a smile on Li Shi's lips.

Hey, this is the effect you want.

After a while, just when Li Shi put away his fishing rod, went ashore, and was about to go back and have a barbecue with Wu Yuan and the others, there was new news in the group.

He walked and watched.

Tang Xiaoxiao: "@万伟庄@杨小萱haha, I must be despised by my little brother, let you look down on my fellow countryman! (smirking) (smirking)"

Wan Huizhu: "Ni Zuokai, don't sow trouble between us and my little brother. My little brother doesn't despise us. He is giving us advice out of kindness."

Yang Xiaoxuan: "Zou Shi, Xiaoxiao, you have evil intentions. My little brother must be very handsome, so you have such evil intentions!"

Wan Huizhu: "@李石小哥, please take a photo. (bad smile)"

Tang Xiaoxiao: "..."

Tang Xiaoxiao: "@李石, why don't you explode one? (hehe)"

Li Shi didn't have the habit of posting photos online, so he casually replied: "You guys are so skilled at this routine photo business, but I'm going to take a shower, so let's not talk about it for now, next time, see you later."

After saying that, he stopped reading the messages in the group, put away his phone and walked quickly towards the house in front of him.

The barbecue stove in the yard had been set up, and Wu Fang's son Zhou Qin was burning charcoal. When he saw Li Shi coming, he quickly and respectfully shouted: "Teacher Li."

This young man, who is six or seven years younger than him, is a bit introverted. Perhaps he is not used to treating a person like Li Shi who looks similar to him as an elder. At first, he avoided him deliberately. Until the morning before yesterday, he saw Li Shi. Shi was practicing boxing in the yard before running over to ask.

Li Shi taught him two tricks on the spot.

Chuanwu was criticized on the Internet. Affected by this, Zhou Qin also felt that what Li Shi was doing was just a pretty but useless showmanship.

The two got along for a while, and he felt that Li Shi was quite easy to talk to, so he expressed his thoughts and asked Li Shi whether Chuanwu could fight.

Li Shi answered him like this at that time:
"I don't have any say in this aspect, but since you asked me, I can tell you my opinion."

"Most people who learn martial arts only practice martial arts routines. In my personal opinion, martial arts routines are the basis of martial arts. On the one hand, they exercise the body, and on the other hand, they solidify the basic movements for competition. This is like learning Chinese with you It’s the same as learning to write in the early stage and then learning to use words and sentences. Once you learn how to use words and sentences, will you be able to write high-level articles? Of course not, not to mention that students in the same class will have high or low levels of wording and sentence making.”

"From my superficial understanding, martial arts has many functions, such as exercising the body, cultivating mind, performing arts, etc. Competition and killing enemies are just two of its many functions. As for whether martial arts can be used in actual combat, I I feel like it’s like all other competitive sports, ultimately it still depends on the person.”

Young people are always unconvinced. Zhou Qin thinks that since he is strong and practices wood carving every day, his hand strength must be stronger than that of an artist like Li Shi, who looks gentle and elegant. He feels that although Li Shi's routines are beautiful and beautiful, he still has some problems. It just looks good, no matter how clear it is in words, it will definitely not work in actual combat.

Under this young man's honest appearance, there is a arrogant heart hidden. He directly asked Li Shi about his actual combat level and wanted to compare his strength with Li Shi.

Li Shi said that he was just practicing moving his muscles and bones, and had not started yet. As for comparing strength——

After a few minutes, no matter how hard Zhou Qin struggled, it was useless. He could only shout in pain and surrender, and did not dare to look at Li Shi, who seemed to be struggling.

From then on, the young man called him "Teacher Li" with more sincere respect.

Li Shi replied to him, took the fishing rod and continued walking into the house.

The "discussion" between the two of them on martial arts that day came to mind again.

In fact, in Li Shi's view, even with his current physical fitness and talent, it is quite difficult to learn martial arts, because here, if he wants to become a real martial artist, he has to learn and practice too many things: It is necessary to cultivate strength, practice moves, and practice strength; it is necessary to learn traditional culture and understand the philosophical ideas in martial arts; it is necessary to study the interdisciplinary subjects of Chinese and Western medicine such as acupuncture points, meridians, muscles, bones, and internal organs, and try to understand the mysteries of human body weaknesses and potential stimulation...

“Interdisciplinary… cross-learning.”

Li Shi stopped suddenly.

He took out his cell phone from his pocket, unlocked it, opened the WeChat group of "Yale Four Dancers", ignored the messages in the group, and went directly to the chat history. After finding the content he posted by the river, he stood at the door and began to think deeply. .

“If you want to truly reach a certain level when learning classical dance, you need to take cultural courses, especially literature and history. When practicing martial arts, you also need to cross-study medical biology, philosophy, etc.… I have also thought about analogies in calligraphy, including my previous studies in Chinese. The study of history, photography, painting, etc. has also become the nourishment for calligraphy learning.”

Li Shi took a few quick steps to a storage room on the side. After putting the fishing rod in, he quickly went upstairs to the guest room where he and Wu Yuan lived.

I took out my notebook from my backpack, opened it, and wrote a few keywords in the blank space: calligraphy charm, dance body charm—dance, opera.

"You're still far away just looking at it from the outside. If you don't go into the mountains, how can you pick the fruits from the mountains?"

"Perhaps I should also learn some classical dance and opera techniques to experience them firsthand."

He was about to write down this thought and prepare to go find a dance or opera teacher to try it out after this "vacation" was over, when he suddenly stopped.

"wrong!"

"In the final analysis, Shenyun is the general term for Shenfa and Shenyun. It is not only dance and opera, but also martial arts."

He picked up the pen and wrote another keyword: the body and rhythm of martial arts.

After pondering for a moment, he added another word at the end: sword dance.

Sword dance is one of the most famous combinations of dance and martial arts.

"It can be regarded as combining martial arts and dance. It takes advantage of having already learned martial arts and swordsmanship, and can also use it to dabble in dance."

"Deepening the cross-learning between these two subjects will definitely help you better improve the beauty of the calligraphy style."

"Besides, swords and pens have something in common!"

"When I first learned swordsmanship, I borrowed the beauty of calligraphy!" "Well, when I get back to Tanzhou, I'll think about sword dancing first!"

When making notes, he conveniently wrote down the steps to consider: the first step is to decompose the basic sword moves; the second step is to understand the martial arts and dance movements; the third step is to integrate the basic sword moves with music.

After finishing writing, Li Shi was quite satisfied and couldn't help but nodded with a smile: "Following this step, I should be able to achieve the effect I want... I am indeed getting better and better now, and I feel a bit like I am in a lofty position. "

I put away my laptop, took a shower, and searched for some sword dances on site B with my mobile phone. I found that the sword dances in some videos were pretty good, but they were far from what I wanted. These sword dances were all There is a problem, it is too biased towards "dance" and the content of "sword" is too low.

And this dancer is an ordinary person after all. Without his physical fitness, he would naturally not be able to achieve the perfect effect he imagined.

At seven o'clock in the evening, it was almost dark outside.

Wu Yuan went upstairs and asked Li Shi to go down to have barbecue.

The lights were on in the yard, which was very bright. The old lady and Master Gu were not there. They all kept in good health and paid attention to light meals, especially dinner. They all ate very early, having eaten at about four o'clock before.

In addition, Zhou Qin, who was making charcoal before, was not there either. When asked, he went back to his room to play games.

"That kid has no future. Every time he sees Yaru, he is like a mouse seeing a cat. He says he has invited friends to play games. I think he just doesn't dare to stay with his aunt."

In front of the barbecue, Wu Fang was flipping skewers and complained directly about her son.

He Yaru looked at her: "I told you before that you should let him work outside. If a boy is always around, he will only become more and more useless."

Wu Fang stopped flipping and sighed: "His woodcarving master also said that he has no talent in this area. Yaru, why don't you help arrange a job for him?"

He Yaru nodded: "As long as you are willing to let him go, arranging work is a trivial matter, but he has no education, no skills, and no experience. No matter what unit he is in, he can only start from the most basic position, and he will definitely have to suffer a little at the beginning. .”

Wu Fang couldn't help but glance at Li Shi secretly, and said quickly: "It should be."

Li Shi walked to the dining table placed in the middle of the yard and found an empty chair to sit down. Wu Yuan quickly brought a plate of grilled skewers.

I tasted a skewer of roasted lamb. It was fragrant but not smelly. I immediately gave Wu Fang a thumbs up and praised: "Sister Fang, your skill at grilling skewers is great. The heat is just right. It's delicious!"

Wu Fang said happily: "Teacher Li, please eat more."

Everyone was chatting while eating, which was quite interesting. After a while, He Yaru suddenly asked with a smile: "Teacher Li, when can you really catch a fish and let Xiaoyuan eat fish soup?"

Before Li Shi could speak, Wu Yuan next to him blinked her long eyelashes and deliberately said first: "Fish soup is just protein. I can drink yogurt."

"Yogurt? I haven't had any in the past few days..."

He Yaru suddenly stopped mid-sentence. She raised her head and looked at her best friend. When she saw that she had an expression similar to Satomi Ishihara's "obscene" expression, she immediately rolled her eyes for one of the few times in her life.

At the same time, I couldn't help but imagine the scene of Wu Yuan accompanying Li Shi fishing in the afternoon.

They must be up to no good by the river!
Over there, Wu Fang looked at the skewers on the stove without raising her head, pretending not to hear what they were saying, but in fact she heard everything.

She is someone who has been here before. Although the few words she spoke were very cryptic, she couldn't understand them at all. She could imagine what they were talking about just by imagining them. She couldn't help but mutter in her heart, that Wu Yuanfeng was so fat and fat, she looked like she could eat... "Yes, Teacher Li, a refined scholar, may be young, but how can he bear it for a long time?I hadn't thought of this before, otherwise I would have asked Ma Xiao to buy a few lamb kidneys when she was grocery shopping, so that she could roast them and replenish them for him.

Speaking of which, Mr. Li, a young man with appearance, temperament, and talent, is really enviable.

At night, the yard is cool, but there are many mosquitoes.

Li Shi was not interested in getting involved in what the three women were talking about, so when they were almost done eating, he got up and went back to the house.

Looking at his back, Wu Fang suddenly sighed: "Teacher Li is very talented at a young age. Even his mother highly praises him. Alas, compared to him, Zhou Qin is simply..."

Wu Yuan smiled and said nothing.

He Yaru couldn't help but look at her cousin, opened her mouth, but hesitated.

Not everyone can compare it.

Sometimes the gap between people is bigger than the gap between people and small dogs...

Li Shi went back upstairs and took out his mobile phone to read a novel. Suddenly, someone in the group of "Four Dancers of Elegant Music" was interested in him. He clicked to check and it was Li Shiyi, who rarely spoke among the four girls. .

"@李石, thank you for your suggestion. I have recently felt that I should read more books. This may be good for my choreography. I plan to read Tang poetry and Song poetry to find creative inspiration from poetry."

When Li Shi saw this sentence, he immediately felt that this young lady's level seemed to be a little higher than the other three.

So I typed and started chatting with her.

After chatting for a while, I found that Li Shiyi was really good.

He took the initiative to talk about the body rhythm in classical dance, and talked about his understanding of the body rhythm in dance. He also talked about the similarities and differences between the body rhythm and the rhythm of poetry and literature in traditional culture.

Li Shiyi also talked about some of her own experiences and opinions, especially the relationship between classical dance movements and body rhythm, which made Li Shi feel that she benefited a lot.

These insights of hers happened to be the blank areas of Li Shi's knowledge.

The two of them were very engaged and in rapport with each other, and unknowingly, 999+ chat records were posted in the group.

Until Tang Xiaoxiao, who had been peeping at the screen, couldn't stand it any longer: "Boss, I would like to ask you, can you please take away your magical powers? Let's go to the dark side, okay? (Poor)"

Wan Huizhu: "Support Xiaoxiao! @李石, little brother, why don't you and your senior sister add friends to chat privately? I don't want to go to class in the group, and I have a fear of being dominated by the top student. (Crying) "

Yang Xiaoxuan: "Let's go black, five of us will be black! I want to challenge the king!"

Yang Xiaoxuan: "(Chong) (Chong) (Chong)"

Li Shiyi: "(rolling eyes) You guys don't appreciate the free master class, so forget it. You have to rehearse later, @李石, how about we add a friend?"

Li Shi looked at the time and found that more than half an hour had passed. He couldn't help but smile and typed: "Add friends to chat privately."

Then he took the initiative to apply to be Li Shiyi's friend.

Pass quickly.

Li Shi asked: "Miss, do you know sword dance?"

As soon as I sent it, the other party also sent me a message at the same time: "Fellow, what do you do? Why do you study dance theory so deeply? I feel like you know many things better than me. (I'm so embarrassed)"

Fellow fellow, she is also from Nanhu Province?
