technical type

How about an old saying?Read the book a hundred times, its meaning will be self-evident.

Year after year, when Ji Mo has learned more than a hundred pieces of music, he seems to have found a certain basis for the breathing method, just like annotating words, and after learning it, he can easily recognize some unfamiliar words. For basic things, a "dictionary" is needed to be truly classified and summarized.

But this "dictionary" is not a dictionary in the true sense, but a very mysterious feeling.

Ji Mo didn't know how to describe it. He remembered the faint feeling when he first sacrificed, and when he watched the stars, he suddenly understood something that he had never "seen" before. , What is it, it is difficult to explain in words, it can only be said to be enlightened.

Seeing the world from now on is a new perspective.

If there is any difference in this world, mountains are still mountains, water is still water, it seems that there is no difference, but it is like taking off the glasses of high myopia, and the eyes regain clarity to see the world, it seems to have erased all Dust and mist reveal the true face of the world.

It may not make people's eyes bright, but it does make people's eyes "bright".

"Master, is this breathing method really that mysterious? Why do I feel that apart from making the song smoother, it doesn't actually help you?"

Will people who hear the tune really follow their hearts and clamor?

Like the effect of war music, people are stunned and unable to move?

"That's because your song is weak."

Zhu Rong spoke bluntly.

"Powerless?"

Ji Mo tilted his head, there were already several scars on his face, layered on top of each other, and he didn't have much cuteness to speak of, but he wasn't really ugly enough to hurt his eyes, maybe those eyes were too bright , or the skin on the side cheeks is too white and tender.

Otherwise, even the child's recovery speed is also fast, the earliest scars have faded, and it doesn't look so scary anymore.

"Not all pieces of music can be used as war music, and not all musical instruments can be used as war music."

Zhu Rong said that this is not a key point.

Many musical instruments have their own unspoken limitations, just like drumming must be powerful, if you want to use a big drum to make a soft and lingering sound, isn't it embarrassing for the big drum?

Similarly, no matter how the flute is played, there is always a sense of lightness, maybe it is the spring rain with the wind, maybe it is the floating catkins, maybe it is the flowers that fall into the lake leisurely...

If you want to play sonorous and powerful music, it is not that you cannot use the flute, but that you cannot use the flute alone, and you need to match it with other instruments.

This is an instrumental limitation.

Then there is the music aspect.

No matter how you blow the song "Spring Rain", it will not turn the raindrops into sharp arrows, and it will bring great momentum.

No matter how you play the song "March", it will not show the softness of the Jiangnan water town, moistening things silently.

This is the characteristic of the music itself. It's not that it cannot be reversed, but the meaning of the reverse is much worse.

It seems that smiling is to show joy. If you must smile when you are sad, it is not impossible, but the meaning is much worse. This kind of "contrast" is not cute at all in the way of music theory, but it is easy to cause some kind of "contrast". Detracting, hurting music theory.

Zhu Rong explained the knowledge to Ji Mo, and as he explained, Ji Mo's professional knowledge points are constantly increasing, one, two, three points, each time not much, but it keeps increasing. These things, some of Ji Mo I can think of it but it is not clear, and some of them need Zhu Rong's affirmation.

After being affirmed, Ji Mo will also practice the pieces he knew in the previous world, and check the application of the breathing method a little bit. Every time he completes a piece, he feels that it is almost done, so he will let Zhu Rong listen to it and let him test it. When Zhu Rong is affirmed after listening, Ji Mo will feel elated, as if he is one step closer to completing the task.

If there is any problem or mistake, Zhu Rong will point it out, and Ji Mo will continue to practice next time. When he has almost practiced, he will ask Zhu Rong to listen again. If there is no problem after listening, it’s fine. If there is a problem, repeat the process. until correct.

Zhu Rong never asked Ji Mo where he learned these tunes, he would help to check as long as Ji Mo played them, and when he taught Ji Mo, he only taught the tunes he was familiar with, and did not use Ji Mo's tunes.

A musician who has reached Zhu Rong's level can play a complete piece of music casually, and there is no need to specifically imitate any music score or the like, and play rigidly according to the music score.

And Zhu Rong also has a good memory, he won't forget the music he plays the next time he repeats it, and play a new pattern again.

"Master, have you ever heard of "Phoenix Introduction"?"

Thinking of that special piece of music, Ji Mo asked Zhu Rong directly.

""Phoenix Introduction"?"

Zhu Rong seemed to be thinking about it, and shook his head a little bit. There were too many similar music names, and he really couldn't remember which one.

"which one?"

he asked directly.

"I'll play it for you."

Ji Mo also knows that in the world of music, the overlap of certain melodies is really "you use me and I use it", just like those famous poems are always similar.

He took out his flute.

As he grew older, he changed his flute a few times. Zhu Rong made it himself. The hole in the flute he is using now is obviously bigger and fits his fingers.

The green bamboo was blown by the lips, one note, two notes, three notes... When Ji Mo blew the fourth note, he stopped suddenly.

"what happened?"

Zhu Rong looked at him, a little confused. So, the pause for such a long time is definitely not the pause that the music should have. So, what happened, forgot the music score?

This unlikely possibility seems to be the only explanation.

Zhu Rong looked at Ji Mo, waiting for his answer.

"Master, I can't seem to blow..."

Follow that breathing method to go down smoothly, but if you can’t go down, what’s going on?

After practicing hundreds of pieces of music, Ji Mo has become very accustomed to using the breathing method when playing, but, on the mediocre piece of "Phoenix Yin", there is no way to blow it down, why? What's the matter?

"Can't blow it down?"

Zhu Rong was a little surprised.

After several years of getting along, he still knows a lot about Ji Mo as a disciple. He has a good memory, quick response, and good comprehension ability. What about the song?

"Is there a score, write it down."

Zhu Rong directly asked Ji Mo to write down the score.

There was no pen and paper in the wooden house, so Ji Mo found a stick and was about to write the music score on the flat land, but he remembered it when he was about to write it, and glanced at Zhu Rong, "Master, how do you write the music score?"

The inheritance of musicians is also a relatively personal matter. The Ji family did buy some music scores in the past because Ji Mo said he wanted to learn, but those music scores are not what Ji Mo said. Able to understand things like ghost symbols.

Think about it, in ancient times there was no universally applicable staves, and there was no universal numbered notation such as "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7". There are different standards, and they are different. Similarly, if some people use some "punctuation marks" that they only know, others will read it, just like reading a password, and they will be at a loss.

Ji Mo's question was practical, and Zhu Rong woke up. After teaching his disciples for several years, he still hasn't taught the most basic music notation.

Isn't this the teacher who teaches memorizing articles first instead of teaching characters?

I didn't learn to walk, I learned to run first, the order is wrong.

After realizing the negligence of his master, Zhu Rong didn't delay, and directly added a class to Ji Mo, asking him to learn how to write music scores.

"The music scores of each family are different, but they are always the same."

Zhu Rong thought that he had seen how many other people's music scores were written. When he was explaining to Ji Mo at the moment, he would comment on what method other people used to record music scores, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of this method , and then talked about the method used to record the score.

This method is quite new to Ji Mo. Generally speaking, it is the same as the previous classical Chinese textbooks with annotations directly under each line. Not only are there annotations at the bottom, but there can also be a curly bracket next to it, directly marking the previous pronunciation. All kinds of treatment that should be had.

Of course, the breathing method will not be recorded on the sheet music.

No, it cannot be said that it is not recorded, but it is secretly recorded.

"The pen and ink here can be thicker, so it's called."

Zhu Rong used a wooden stick to draw an extra stroke on one of the strokes that had already been written on the ground, as if intending to deepen the mark, so as to make a secret mark.

"remember."

Ji Mo's eyes lit up when he heard it, he can still do this!Sure enough, it needs to be encrypted!

This breathing method is also the secret of every family, just like martial arts cheats.

"Master, what is this word?"

Ji Mo asked pretending to be ignorant.

Hearing his question, Zhu Rong came to his senses again, well, besides not teaching how to record the score, he also didn't teach how to write the text, but this is not the point.

"The song has nine tones, but the nine tones are inconsistent."

Zhu Rong wrote nine characters on the ground, which are not the characters that are circulating outside at this time, the characters used to record the music scores are completely different characters, it is not ancient, it is not modern.

"There is a song in ancient times, offering sacrifices to heaven and earth. Its sound avoids ghosts and gods, so it cannot be recognized..."

How did the music in ancient times come from? It developed from the music for offering sacrifices to the heaven and the earth. In order to avoid the coveting of ghosts and gods, the characters used to record the music cannot be the current ones, that is, the characters commonly used by scholars to write articles. It can be the text used to record the score.

The two kinds of text are distinguished, so that the text for recording music scores is dedicated to a small number of people.

It's not that I know the ancients and the present, and I really don't know the score. This kind of threshold, this kind of cultural barrier, can only be said to be low-level.

Ji Mo doesn't quite understand the meaning of this, maybe it's a symbolic meaning?He didn't say much, and listened quietly, and heard Zhu Rong talk about the inheritance of musicians, from inheritance to writing, and then to the meaning of some special symbols on the writing.
