Chapter 106: I can't pretend anymore
Shi Kuang, the first musician of the Jin Kingdom!
He was born blind with invisible eyes, and with a disability from birth, he was able to become a very good musician, and he was very knowledgeable.
This is a character who has left a name in history for preventing the monarch from listening to the "voice of the dead country", and he is also the protagonist of the idiom "Shi Kuangzhicong".
What is the "Voice of the Dead Country"? In fact, it is a decadent and weak piece of music, music that can make people languish when you listen to it.
To be counted in this way, there are many "voices of the dead country" in modern times, and there are even more sassy ones.
Therefore, the death of the country has nothing to do with music.
However, the ancients did not see it that way, especially in the Spring and Autumn Period, when music was very sacred.
The Shi Kuang that Lu Wu saw was a young man in his twenties, and his eyes were covered with a white membrane.
Judging by modern medical skills, Shi Kuang was actually born with cataracts, but his medical skills were not developed, he was not treated in time, and he became blind.
"Wu?" Han Qi saw that Lu Wu had been staring at Shi Kuang, and felt that it was a very rude thing, so he called out to attract Lu Wu's attention and said, "It's windy ...... here."
Lu Wu nodded to Han Qi and explained: "I heard that there is a musician with a famous name, a sheep's tongue, who knows the six laws and can distinguish the five sounds. Now when I hear his name and see his person, I am happy and lose my temper. β
"I also heard of Yin Wuzi, who stabbed hundreds of Qin soldiers on the battlefield." Shi Kuang couldn't see Lu Wu, but he could face Lu Wu, and said while saluting: "This is the inherent line." β
Didn't you just kill dozens?
How did it become hundreds???
He is actually also a nobleman, a sheeptongue clan.
Lu Wu knew that Shi Kuang was mainly impressed by the sentence "Listen to the string song and know the elegant meaning", so he specially went to find out the place.
Since it is a sheep's tongue, why is it called Shi Kuang?
It's like there is a Xun clan, why don't there be a Zhongxing clan.
In this case, Shi Kuang is actually too talented in the profession, and the prefix of the profession is used to call the name together to express recognition and appreciation.
As the host, Lu Wu could not ignore the rest of the "divisions", and after cordially greeting them one by one, he invited them to get into the carriage.
On the way back, Han Qi and Lu Wu were in the same car.
"Wu, have you never seen such a strange person?" Han Qi was talking about Shi Kuang, who had a pair of white eyes, and said with a smile: "At first, I saw it, and I was surprised. β
Lu Wu can be regarded as knowing why Han Wuji and Han Qi are brothers.
Because they are the same, they belong to the mouth that does not guard the door.
"Excuse me." Lu Wu said helplessly: "Shi Kuang's name is passed on to the country, and he can't leave the handle behind. β
Han Qi said indifferently: "This car is only me and Wu, who is spreading it?" β
So, Qing is not treated as a human being?
This is not a faux pas.
Han Qi meant that he and Lu Wu were nobles in the car.
And Qing is Lu Wu's royal hand, and he is also counted as his own person.
I believe that the people in the car will not spread it out with a big mouth.
On the way back, outsiders were observing what the old Lu family had built the food town into.
They are most impressed by the road.
In many places, when it rains, the roads will not only become muddy, but also covered with large and small puddles.
It has been raining for four or five days, and the road of Lao Lu's house looks generally okay, even if some sections of the road are covered with mud, but there are no potholes in sight.
The road is in good condition because of the use of gravel and cinders, which are covered with a thin layer of earth.
Gravel is all over the mountains, and the old Lu family is reclaiming wasteland, and they will inevitably clean up the stones and stones on the fields.
Lu Wu opened some smelting furnaces again, and burned the cinders, which was too wasteful to simply throw away.
Digging up the flat ground to a depth of about 20 centimeters and then filling it with the stones and cinders that had been piled up is equivalent to secondary use.
took a group of people back, but they didn't go directly to Lu Wu's residence.
How can a nobleman have only one residence, there must be multiple manors.
LΓΌ Wu took them to the foot of a mountain.
There is a staircase leading directly to the manor halfway up the mountain, which means that the car cannot go up, and you can only walk if you want to go up.
A group of people braved the rain to go up.
Lu Wu personally led Shi Kuang, chatting casually as he walked.
The buildings of the manor are still made of bricks, and a lot of wood is used, which is more beautiful and comfortable than the usual place to live, and is used for banquets with retainers and for entertaining foreign guests.
They came to a two-story building, the second floor of which was a large hall.
Sitting here facing the west, you can see the pattern under the mountainside, and you can have a good eyesight of the manor and villages distributed by the old Lu family.
It was raining and the wind was a little strong, and the windows in the hall were closed, and oil lamps were lit inside.
"This place ......" Shi sickle stepped on the wooden plank, and said in surprise: "It's all wood?" β
He should have actually added the word "board".
At present, of course, it is possible to make wood into planks, but there is a lack of suitable tools, not only do you need old craftsmen to come in person, but the yield is not high.
But the old Lu family is different, Lu Wu has already made all kinds of saws, even with planers and files.
Don't ask why you know so much, there is a Lao Tzu who has been building houses for people since the 70s, and he has been doing contract projects later.
As for how did the smelting technology come about? Who hasn't had a little hobby.
And Lu Wu has a lot of hobbies.
This estate has resident servants.
Before, Lu Wu found that the Caucasian maids on the other side of the residence were gone, but they were actually transferred to this side, not all killed.
The steward gave command, and the servants brought everything they needed, and soon the scene was set up.
The guests saw that the busy Caucasian slave girls were stunned, and most of them did not react much.
"There's something else going on." Han Qi said more seriously: "Maybe you should look for a little bit, and it is better to do the same." β
Lu Wu heard a lot of information from this sentence, and thought: "I seem to have become someone else's child?" β
Han Ju, perhaps with some elders of the Wei family, used Lu Wu as an example or example to educate the juniors of his family.
Waiting for the wind to pass away, LΓΌ Wu ordered the door to be opened and the window to be opened.
The eye can see the emptiness ahead, and under the drizzle, a large plain is full of fields, and there is a manor or village at intervals, which is very pleasing to the eye.
For a moment, everyone was looking at the scenery outside, so that there was no conversation in the hall.
The Caucasian maids found that their surroundings were quiet, and carefully fiddled with some tools, and sat down on their knees on the side of the table.
They stay because they still have jobs.
For example, take care of the sake that is being warmed on a small stove and the soup that is also being cooked.
In addition, they also need to help the guests drink wine and hand over the utensils that the guests need.
Of course, these skills are not taught by Lu Wu, but by Zhao? Let the dowry master be taught, that is, some people from the court.
The sound of some of the wood bumping was slight, but it was too quiet in the hall to make it a little noticeable.
Lu Wu turned his head to look and saw Shi Kuang's hands on the desk beating.
Everyone's eyes also withdrew from the outside, and they all focused on Shi Kuang.
Many people also showed expectant expressions.
Shi Kuang couldn't see it, he didn't know why he didn't speak, but he could guess what scenery attracted everyone.
Everything is foggy when you are born, and the older you get, the more blurred your vision becomes, until it is completely covered in darkness.
This type of person actually has a world of his own in his mind, and he imagines what a world that is not dark is like.
Most people with medical conditions are sensitive, causing irritability, irritability, and difficulty communicating.
Shi Kuang is obviously not that kind of person?
He guessed what the crowd was watching, knew that he had gone up the mountain, and expressed it in music with his imagination.
There was a rhythmic beat in the hall.
Lu Wu secretly observed and found that many people showed intoxicated expressions.
He listened very hard, but he could hear that he was beating the beat, but the point was that he couldn't understand the situation at all, and couldn't blend in, considering whether to pretend to understand and show an appreciative expression, or just keep an embarrassed and polite smile.
A more realistic situation.
What environment did Lu Wu grow up in, and what he thought was music, which was different from heaven and earth in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it was not surprising that he could not be substituted.
And the people of the Spring and Autumn Period, who do not have a certain status and status, have never even heard music in their lives.
Because of the cultural relationship at that time, it was really necessary to have a certain status to have the enjoyment of listening to music, so that there was a story that Confucius listened to "Shao" in Qi State, patronized and studied for three months, and even forgot what the taste of meat was.
Confucius knew all too well how privileged it was to hear music, especially music played at the level of a symphony orchestra.
That's the treatment that only a monarch can have!
It can even be said that not every monarch can have that treatment, and at the same time, he needs to have enough knighthood, have the financial resources to buy musical instruments, and can afford to maintain an orchestra.
Shi Kuang imagined in his mind what kind of scenery he looked at from the mountain, and expressed it with his own music.
Everyone who knew his reputation felt that this trip had come too far.
Lu Wu found Han Qi's bewildered expression, and glanced at everyone a few more times.
I don't know if it's because of the qualitative relationship in his heart, he always feels that there are so many people's performances that are a little fake.
Each table has the appropriate dining tools ready, but the food is not served now.
LΓΌ Wu motioned for the servant to take the visitor down to freshen up.
Guests will stay for a long time, grooming and changing clothes, which is an inevitable process of aristocratic hospitality.
Han Qi stayed very deliberately and said, "Wu, my father's meaning is ......"
In short, Han Ju could see that Lu Wu didn't understand aristocratic etiquette at all, and everyone actually knew it, but he knew what the old Lu family was like before, and he didn't care about it.
Now, Lu Wu is a doctor, and because of his performance during the alliance, there will definitely be a broader stage of life in the future, and some things that should be learned must be learned.
What about those people, the Han family helped invite the old Lu family, can you leave them to teach Lu Wu and see Lu Wu's own performance.
In addition, Shi Kuang didn't want to be a teacher, he just heard about Lu Wu's performance when he met the alliance, and met Han Qi's team on the way to Lao Lu's house and was accepted.
In this way, it is more obvious what Lu Wu's life will have next, and he must study well with a few teachers.
