Chapter 12 Seven Steps into a Poem, a Quatrain for the Eternals!
Quatrains, also known as truncated sentences, broken sentences, and quaint poems, are four sentences and one poem, short and concise.
According to the number of words in each sentence, quatrains can be divided into five-character quatrains, six-character quatrains and seven-character quatrains, of which five- and seven-character quatrains are the majority, and six-character quatrains are rare.
Quatrains originated in the Han and Tang dynasties, but due to the emergence of cultural faults, there are very few quatrains in the world.
To this day, apart from the great writers and scholars of the provincial cultural associations and the ancient poetry research associations, there are only a handful of people who can make decent quatrains.
Let Lu Yifan make a quatrain on the spot?
In Xu Xiuzhi and Li Tian's opinion, Gu Yang was giving them face and deliberately making things difficult for Lu Yifan!
How can a mere high school student make a quatrain?
Even if it can be reluctantly made, it must be the donkey's lips that are not right with the horse's mouth, and the smile will be stopped!
"Yifan, I think what Principal Gu said is very reasonable, if you can make a quatrain, it means that your poetry level is very high, and those doubts I just now are naturally not valid. Li Tian said with a gloating smile.
"That's right, Lu Yifan, if you can make a 'real' quatrain, Li Tian and I will bow and apologize to you. But if you can't, then you'll have to do a deep review of what you've just done. Xu Xiuzhi's eyes wiped a trace of ruthlessness.
She has been teaching for more than ten years, and no student has ever dared to threaten her like that!
If you don't rectify this Lu Yifan, where will her majesty be in the future?
Seeing Xu Xiuzhi and Li Tian targeting Lu Yifan like this, Gu Yang regretted it a little in his heart.
Make a quatrain on the spot, let alone Lu Yifan, even if you can't do it yourself.
But for some reason, as soon as he saw the inexplicable elegance and elegant temperament exuded by the young man in front of him, he had a strong expectation in his heart.
"Ahem...... Yifan, let me remind you that the so-called quatrains are divided into ......"
"Quatrains are divided into 'lawless' and 'ancient'. Like the poetry, the law is the same as the rhythm of the sentence, and the sticky pair and rhyme are emphasized. The ancient and the law are opposites, and they are not bound by the rhythm of poetry. ”
Without waiting for the principal to finish speaking, Lu Yifan blurted out this paragraph.
Gu Yang was a little surprised: "It's not bad that you have such a study of quatrains at a young age, it's good, it's good." ”
"It's just a quatrain, and for me, it's as simple as eating. Lu Yifan said indifferently.
Even Gu Yang was a little angry now.
At a young age, he said wildly, it's good to let this kid suffer a little!
"Well, then I'm going to listen to your great work. Is half an hour enough for me to give you?" Gu Yang said with a slight mockery.
"No, I only have to walk seven steps and become a poem. ”
Seven steps to poetry!
What an arrogant tone!
In fact, I don't blame Lu Yifan for being arrogant, after all, he has been depressed for so long, and now he suddenly got the help of the immortals, if he doesn't pretend to be forced today, he is uncomfortable!
Under the burning eyes of everyone, Lu Yifan put his hands behind his back, like an elegant ancient poet, and slowly paced in the classroom.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!
In just seven steps, it can be done in a few seconds.
Lu Yifan looked at the scenery outside the window, closed his eyes, and chanted: "Two yellow orioles singing green willows......"
Burst......
I don't know who heard Lu Yifan's first poem, and suddenly laughed.
Immediately after, the room full of students burst into laughter.
Gu Yang frowned slightly.
This first line of the poem is too straightforward, isn't it?
Two yellow orioles singing green willows......
Isn't it just two birds chirping in the willow tree?
Is this a quatrain or a limerick?
As soon as this first line of the poem came out, the sense of expectation in Gu Yang's heart had faded mostly, and he thought that Lu Yifan was just a little thorn who loved to be in the limelight and spoke wildly.
The smiles on Xu Xiuzhi and Li Tian's faces also became stronger.
Stinky boy, with this little ability, you dare to come out to show? I won't be able to kill you later!
Only Lu Yifan's sworn friend Zhang Shibo secretly sweated for him in his heart.
Lu Yifan was unmoved, and then chanted: "A line of egrets is in the sky." ”
As soon as this sentence came out, the laughter gradually stopped.
Gu Yang couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
These two sentences do look very white when taken out alone, but when put together, the flatness and rhyme of the poems are just right, which is beyond the level of ordinary scholars.
"The window contains a thousand autumn snow in Xiling, and the door is berthed in the Dongwu Wanli ship. ”
As soon as the last two lines of the poem came out, there was no laughter in the classroom.
Gu Yang's heart trembled.
Every time I reminisce about the poems recited by Lu Yifan, the amplitude of my heart trembling is one point sharper, and even my heartbeat is not very smooth.
He didn't expect, and he couldn't have imagined that this senior high school student's talent would reach such a level!
It can really be a poem in seven steps!
And the poems made reveal the charm of endless sadness and homesickness between the lines!
This talent is simply outrageous!
It's just a fierce madness!
Although the word "heartbroken" is not appropriate, it can truly depict the feelings in Gu Yang's heart.
This level of quatrain, Gu Yang asked himself, he would never be able to write it!
This can already be used as a masterpiece that has been passed down through the ages, and it can be put in textbooks and poetry books for everyone to enjoy!
What's even more terrifying is that Lu Yifan only walked seven steps to make this poem.
The talent made him, the president of the Jiangdong Ancient Poetry Research Association, feel ashamed.
I think he has studied ancient poetry for decades, and he is usually complacent, thinking that he is talented, but now he knows that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky, and he was completely impressed by an eighteen-year-old boy!
"Principal Gu, this poem I wrote, is it okay?" Lu Yifan asked with a chuckle.
This is Du Fu's poem!
Just kidding, is the poet called for nothing?
can be compared with his old man, and he is only a poet fairy Li Bai.
"Huh, what are you talking about?" Gu Yang was in a trance, and was completely shocked by Lu Yifan's poem, so that he didn't hear what Lu Yifan said.
After reacting, Gu Yang's face turned red, and he excitedly held Lu Yifan's hand and asked, "Amazing, amazing! Seven steps into a poem, it can be called a good story for the ages! Yifan, what is the name of your poem?"
"I didn't think of what to call it, so let's just call it "Quatrain". Lu Yifan withdrew his hand from Gu Yang's old hand and said this lightly.
"Quatrain...... Quatrains...... What a quatrain! It's been a long time since I've heard such a wonderful poem!" Gu Yang said with emotion and excitement.
Lu Yifan glanced at Xu Xiuzhi and Li Tian, who had bad faces, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "Then, Teacher Xu, classmate Li Tian, according to the agreement, should you bow to me and apologize?"
"What, you want me to bow and apologize to you, there is no door!" Li Tian roared angrily.
"How can a teacher bow and apologize to his students, what kind of system is this?" Xu Xiuzhi obviously wanted to regret it.
Lu Yifan shrugged his shoulders and said to Gu Yang: "Principal Gu, your words, feelings are a fart! I don't care anyway, what do you say in the future, I should be a fart." ”
After Gu Yang heard this, he turned around and was expressionless, not angry: "Xu Xiuzhi, Li Tian, according to the agreement, bow to Lu Yifan and apologize!!"
