unrequited temperament

"Who are those people?"

"The little Taoist priest is a new disciple of Taoist priest Min, and the others are friends of that Taoist priest." Xie Yu simply answered the second senior brother's question.

Wang Yichuan looked back at those people, always feeling that the people and things around his junior had become a little unusual.But this feeling is not very clear, and it passes in a flash.

The four of them walked along the winding path to the third hill on the left of the farmhouse.This mountain is the gentlest among several consecutive mountains, and the area of ​​the top of the mountain is relatively wide.There are many huge rock blocks scattered in relatively open locations.Some rocks have a wide area and a flat surface, so a small slope ladder was chiseled to go straight to the rock platform.Standing on the stone platform, you can see all the surrounding mountains and trees.The bottom of the mountain is a tributary of the Yangtze River, and the river flows slowly. On the other side of the river is a continuous mountain, whose height is aligned with the mountain.If you look at it in heavy fog, you will feel that Duishan and Benshan only need to cross a bridge blocked by fog.It's a pity that there is no bridge, and it is impossible to fly to the opposite mountain with the clouds and the wind.

Among the many rocks, there is a stone shaped like a cradle, oval in shape, low in the middle, and next to two towering trees with lush branches. The branches extend above the stone and block most of the sunlight.The unstoppable light shines on the stone platform through the gap, casting mottled light and shadow.Xie Yu took the lead and led a few people up to this cradle stone.

Xie Yu often comes here, so there are many stone piers to sit on on the stone platform, and there are also stone bars for placing Guqin.Xie Yu put the qin on a stone bar where the sun shines more, and left the other stone table that is more protected from light to the master.Zhang Laoxiao sat down slightly, and looked at the rocks under his feet and the two big trees with intertwined branches and leaves: "These two trees have grown more energetic. Xiaoyun must have listened to your high-pitched voice."

Before Xie Yu could speak, Wang Yichuan echoed: "Master is right. I remember that these two trees didn't grow so well a few years ago. Now you see, they seem to surpass the elegance of all the surrounding trees."

Xie Yu took a serious look, nodded and said: "The growth in the past three years has been about one-third faster than the previous two years. And this year is the fastest, twice as fast as the first two of the three years. "

"Growing up so fast this year, Junior Brother, have you improved your piano skills again?" Wang Yichuan was only joking.But then he discovered that his junior brother had really advanced to another level.

Xie Yu plucked the strings and tested the sound, the distant piano sound, just one or two notes also has a kind of aura.This is the realm of a master, who can judge with just one sound.The Guqin that Xie Yu is using at the moment is the Banana Leaf Qin that Zhao Weihe ordered.The banana leaf qin is shaped like a banana leaf, with nine curved arcs in total, five convex and four concave.The appearance is very delicate and beautiful, generally speaking, women prefer it.However, the production of this style of guqin is quite a test of craftsmanship, and a slight error will affect the tone.Generally, those who want to make a banana leaf qin will choose a qin master carefully.But Xie Yun's piano, no matter what style it is, everyone is quite at ease.All the people who got the qin that Xie Yu cut with his own hands couldn't be more satisfied with it.

"Master, what song do you think you should choose?" Xie Yu sat sideways on the stone pier, with one hand resting on his cheek, and the other resting on the qin, he plucked the strings of the qin casually, and plucked up a series of quiet notes.

Mr. Zhang also tried the sound test. Looking at the endless mountains and rivers, he said: "The ancients often played the qin impromptuly. , to express my heart." Xie Yu nodded in agreement.

Those who are not those with profound skills dare not play casually, even the luthiers with solid foundation dare not play casually.If other people see Zhang Lao and Xie Yun playing the piano so casually, they must worship them.

Today, Mr. Zhang and Xie Yu, master and apprentice, played the guqin together.The violins chosen by the two are different.In Mr. Zhang's hands is a chaotic guqin, the whole piece is not fancy, and the sound of the piano is thicker.Xie Yu's banana leaf qin was made for women, so the sound of the qin is relatively clear.The two pianos have their own characteristics, and a ensemble must complement each other.

"Master, please first." Xie Yun said.In this way, Zhang Lao started to play, and Xie Yu made peace with each other.Whether you can catch up or not is a test of your skills, reaction and comprehension.

Mr. Zhang made a little effort, and strummed the strings with his hands. At first, it was a vast and distant scattered sound.After a short rest, the distant sound of the piano is gurgling under Mr. Zhang's hands...

Xie Yu's fingers played and kneaded on the strings, sometimes urgently and sometimes slowly, the melodious and mellow sound of the piano drifted in the forest, surrounding it endlessly.

Two people, one sound is simple and cangsang, and the other is magnificent, but they are in harmony with nature and deep meaning, as if showing that in the ancient sky, a flourishing peony quietly buds, and then blooms wantonly, the silent and empty world is thus And the vitality is now prosperous...

Zhang Lao’s lineage was passed down from the Guangling Qin School. It has a history of more than 12 years since its establishment in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty.Mr. Zhang and his brother Mr. Lu are the No.[-] masters of the Guangling School.It is said that Mr. Lu has a haughty personality and a clean eye. He doesn't like to gather with other good piano players. He lives alone in the mountains and fields to study the rhythm of nature.And only one disciple was accepted.That disciple and Xie Yun's other three senior brothers and sisters have all met.And I heard that his temperament is the same as that of Lu Lao, he is arrogant and innocent, and difficult to get close to.But I heard that although he is not amiable, his piano skills are indeed outstanding.The senior brother once said jokingly that if the fourth junior brother met him for a while, it would definitely kill him.Xie Yu was unmoved, and the senior brother had no choice but to let go of this idea.Zhang Lao is different from Lu Lao, although the arrogance of the qin player will never be less, but he is much more easy-going.The style of playing the piano is relatively deep and quiet, delicate and subtle.

Mr. Zhang accepted four disciples.When he received Xie Yun, he announced to the outside world that he was a closed disciple and would no longer accept disciples.Before that, many qin players wanted to worship Mr. Zhang as their teacher, but they failed in the end.It is said that there are many very talented and family-educated characters among them.The last person who was unknown, nobody had heard of it, and said he didn't understand the rhythm at all, became an old disciple of Zhang, and he was furious for a while.But a real qin player is cultivated after all, and gradually becomes peaceful.Talking about it later is just curious.And now, with Xie Yuqin's price of one million, it is already famous.The No.12 generation of Guangling School has two representatives, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lu.And the No.13 generation is also a talented person.The Guangling School is considered to be prosperous in the piano world.

The sun turned to the center, and the sweat flowed from the temples, and it shone in the light as it dripped.Xie Yu retracted his fingers, closed his eyes and opened them again, looking at Mr. Zhang who was smiling at him, "Master."

With a pleased face, Mr. Zhang said to Xie Yun: "You have surpassed being a teacher, and the disciple is better than the blue. It's a great fortune!" Mr. Zhang's joy was beyond words, but then his face suddenly became serious, and he said: "The sound of the piano is consistent with your state of mind today. Can it match?"

Xie Yun: "I don't have any mood in my heart today."

After hearing this, Mr. Zhang laughed and said, "No state of mind is a lot of states of mind. Today's song harmonizes well. But you still remember the score, can you write it down when you go back?"

"Yes." Xie Yun nodded.It is very simple for Xie Yun to memorize an impromptu score.Not to mention photographic memory and photographic memory, but Xie Yun's memory is definitely comparable to that of world-class memory masters.This is genius.

"Papa..." There was a burst of applause.Zhao Weihe clapped his hands and exclaimed: "This is the most gravitational Guqin performance I have ever heard."

Wang Yichuan smiled all over his face: "Master and Junior Brother's song is really unique, and it can be included in the famous Guqin music library." These words are completely sincere.All pianists pursue artistic conception.And artistic conception has three layers: scene, artistic conception and framed conception.It can be described as layer upon layer of difficulty.And today's song, the scene and the artistic conception are perfectly presented.And Gejing's lofty personality and noble sentiments can be felt in every piano sound.Listening to a song is like bathing in a baptism, and your body and mind are sublimated.

The noon sun warmed up, and there was a feeling of scorching.The four returned to the farmhouse under the scorching sun, all covered in sweat.After taking a bath one after another, I changed my clothes before I felt refreshed.Xie Yun made lunch, rice with many kinds of vegetables.Here at Xie Yu, there is no distinction between whether you are entertaining guests or not.There is no meat in the house, so anyone who comes can only be a vegetarian.Mr. Zhang himself is also a vegetarian, and the second senior brother has long been brought to prefer vegetarianism.Then only Zhao Weihe doesn't know what his eating habits are.When eating, Wang Yichuan saw that he was eating normally and had no emotions, so he dismissed the idea of ​​inviting him to the market restaurant later.

The little disciple is about to go out, and he doesn't know when he will return.Mr. Zhang felt that Daochang Min had instigated this matter.So in the afternoon, he went straight to Qingyan Temple to find Taoist Min.Three young people, Wang Yichuan, Zhao Weihe, and Xie Yun, remained in the farmhouse.Apart from playing the qin, Xie Yu's unshakable things every day are playing the qin. The thing of playing the qin has been hearty in the morning, and this afternoon is the qin.

In the piano room, Xie Yu focused on polishing the surface of the piano with fine water sandpaper in his hand.The surface of the piano is becoming smoother and more delicate at a visible speed.One violin, two violins, three violins, and three violins that were in the final polishing period were continuously polished before the work was finished.

Wang Yichuan and Zhao Weihe have been watching him work for several hours, and they are still very serious.It's as if they're looking at something that's fun, not something to grind on.Wang Yichuan had the experience of watching his younger brother play the piano all day long before, and he never found it boring, but Zhao Weihe was really patient for being able to stay silent for so long, so he couldn't help but admire Zhao Weihe a little more.

Mr. Zhang went to the Taoist temple to look for Daoist Min, but it was almost dark and he did not return.Seeing that the food was getting cold, Xie Yu asked Zhao Weihe and Wang Yichuan to eat first.The three sat down to eat.At this time, Zhao Weihe suddenly answered the phone, then his expression changed slightly, and he said a few words: "Where are you? Wait for me." Then he hung up, and said to Wang Yichuan and Xie Yun with a serious face, "I have some Private matters, let's go first." After saying that, the man hurriedly got up and walked out.

Zhao Weihe walked to the gate in a few steps, and was about to get in the car when he opened the door, when he suddenly heard Xie Yu shout loudly: "Wait a moment." Playing the banana leaf qin that I played just this morning. "Forgot to take the qin and left." Xie Yu handed the qin to Zhao Weihe.Zhao Weihe held out his hand hesitantly.Xie Yu looked at him coldly and said: "If you are not satisfied, you can withdraw."

Not satisfied, why?Zhao Weihe hurried to pick up the qin, but at the moment when the qin was handed over, a "bang" gunshot sounded suddenly. ——A stream of blood spewed out from Xie Yun's chest and sprinkled on the Banana Leaf Qin.The qin slid to the ground with a "clang" sound, and made a whining sound.Xie Yun fell to the ground.Zhao Weihe's outstretched hand failed to hold.

"What happened?" Wang Yichuan heard the noise and ran out of the yard, saw Xie Yu lying on the ground with blood streaming from his chest, and immediately yelled: "Junior brother?" He ran over, leaned over and held Xie Yu's face, Frightened: "Junior Brother, how are you? Junior Brother, please answer me. Junior Brother..."

The people on the ground did not respond, their eyes were open, and the brilliance inside gradually disappeared.Wang Yichuan roared miserably: "Junior brother..." The miserable voice echoed in the open field.

Min Daochang Ben and Zhang Lao drank some wine and played chess, enjoying themselves leisurely.Suddenly, a shrill scream was heard.Elder Zhang thought he was hallucinating.Daochang Min had a keen ear, and when he heard the sound, he was startled, and the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground with a slap, and broken porcelain splashed everywhere.

"What happened?" Elder Zhang immediately stood up, staring nervously at Daoist Min.

Daochang Min shook his hands, and said angrily, "It's broken." After saying that, he disappeared instantly.Mr. Zhang threw down the chess piece and ran out quickly.Xiang Sheng and Xiang Yu, who were making wine and tea outside, saw that Taoist Master and Zhang Lao left one after another.Reminiscent of the voice just now, the two looked at each other and quickly followed Mr. Zhang.
