Chapter 2: The First Snow (Four Times)

"The carving insect skill can't afford to be so praised by Bai Xingshou!" Gao Shi smiled and shook his head slightly. "I often take pleasure in it in my spare time, but at the moment I rely on it is nothing more than familiarity. If you replace the sword with a piano, you won't be able to play the charm inside! ”

After that, he raised the wine cup and turned his head to everyone, "This glass of wine, Gao Mou may drink it?!" ”

"Drink, drink!" Everyone stroked their palms together and applauded Gao Shi's "piano skills".

The atmosphere in the field became more and more intense, and Rao is Zhang Xun's calm and stable character was also stirred up. looked around, and saw that no one in the audience was ready to get up and take Gao Shi's wine order, so he put down the wine cup and asked with a smile: "Mingyun, can you borrow a set of pen and ink!" ”

"If Tanhualang can mention a few words on the wall, Linfeng Lou will definitely be grateful!" Wang Xun nodded, smiled and told the guy to get pen and ink.

Suddenly, the pen and ink are delivered. Zhang Xun chose a big wolf from it, soaked it in ink in the inkstone, strode to the wall, hung his wrist, held his breath, and wrote down the words "the wind rises and the clouds move". The words are two feet square, and they are all meticulous Han Li.

At this time, cursive writing was the most popular among literati and artists, taking its free-spirited and unrestrained state. But there is no shortage of famous people who are good at official calligraphy. Zhang Xun's words, if they are chic and unpredictable, I am afraid that they are more than a chip and a half short of the grass saint Zhang Xu. But its nobility lies in its dignified and heavy, and from a distance, an awe-inspiring righteousness gushes out.

"Good!" There are all knowledgeable people here, and when they saw Zhang Xun's writing, they immediately slapped the case. Zhang Xun smiled and arched his hand at everyone, and then said in a low voice: "I was able to drink this wine, thanks to Master Gao's sword song just now." When Zhang heard this, he suddenly felt something in his heart. I can't control my hands anymore! ”

"Tanhualang don't owe it to me." Gao Shi shook his head with a smile, "That awe-inspiring aura is in your heart, Gao's tune, but I just happened to sense it." I nourish my heroic qi, the greatest to the strongest, to be straight and harmless, then stuffed between heaven and earth. The ancients did not deceive me! ”

The words fell, and the four of them cheered again. Half for Zhang Xun's words, half for Gao Shi's comments. Lei Wanchun didn't drink for two consecutive rounds, and his throat was already smoking. After a few glances at the inscription on the wall, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in my heart. Haha laughed a few times and stood up. Walked quickly to Gao Shi's side and borrowed the sword from him. Then he came to the wall where Zhang Xun had inscribed just now, and his body suddenly rolled in mid-air, and while rolling, he carved the four big characters of "Tiger Roaring Dragon Yin" with the sword on the left side of the wall that was higher than the four characters mentioned by Zhang Xun. At the last moment, the body was close to the ground. But with the other arm, he struggled to hold on, and his body more than nine feet tall actually stood up lightly like a fallen leaf, and slowly stood upright and stood firmly.

Now, everyone forgot to even cheer. Or holding a wine cup, or holding chopsticks, mouth slightly open, eyes unblinking. After a long while, someone let out a long "exhalation" and clapped vigorously.

These four words are wild grass. The attainments shown in calligraphy are not at all the same as the four words that Zhang Xun wrote just now. But no one dared to underestimate Lei Wanchun's hand. You know, a fall together is just between three or two breaths, even with the brushwork of wild grass, the four words together have more than 20 strokes. Writing these four words is equivalent to stabbing out more than 20 swords between three or two breaths, such martial arts, such eagerness, I am afraid that looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, I can't find a second choice.

"It's okay to drink, right?" Lei Wanchun was nervous and threw his hands around amid applause.

"Yes, yes. Brother Lei should be replaced with a big lamp! Qin Guomo responded with a smile. Turning his head and ordering his man, he changed the largest wine cup for Lei Wanchun, poured one slowly, and put his hands in front of Lei Wanchun.

"Finally got it!" Lei Wanchun was unceremoniously, picked up the wine cup, and poured it down. After pouring it, he wiped his mouth with his hand, looked back at his words, couldn't help but shake his head lightly, and said with a smile: "Compared with Tanhualang's words, my words are simply spiders crawling." However, this artistic conception is also consistent! ”

"It's not just a match, it's a perfect match!" Cen Shen stroked his palm lightly, got up and said, "After reading the words of the two of you, Cen also has it here!" After that, he took the sword from Lei Wanchun's hand, and chanted while playing, "Han will Cheng Enxi break Rong, and Jieshu will play Weiyang Palace first." The Son of Heaven pre-opened the Lin Pavilion to wait, only who counts the second master's merits today. The officers and soldiers went out of Loulan in the west, and the camp was cold in the moon cave. Pu Hai Xiaoshuang condenses the horsetail, and the green mountain flutters at night. Mingzhu folded drums to support the return army, breaking the country and peace, which had never been heard of in the past. The husband shook the moon, and the general dragon flag shook the clouds. At sunset, the drums and horns of the gate sounded, and thousands of faces tied out of the city. Washing the soldiers, fish, sea clouds, and facing the battle, the moon is shining in the camp. When the Fan army saw the Han family camp from afar, the valley and the mountains were full of crying. Thousands of arrows and thousands of knives were killed in one night, and Pingming bled into the empty city. The twilight rain is not dry, and the smoke and white grass are cold. Last night, the general Lian Xiaozhan was fighting, and the Fan army saw the horse empty saddle. ”

There is no softness and beauty in the first half of the song that Gao Shi played just now, but it gives full play to the impassioned taste in the second half of the song.

Everyone praised loudly and toasted Cen Shen one after another. Cen Shen raised the wine cup and drank it dry with a smile. Next are the two brothers Qin Guomo and Qin Guozhen, who have a very good family education and are both civil and military. So I made two small orders in response to the occasion, which can also get into the eyes of everyone. It's just that the literary style and artistic conception are slightly inferior to Cen Shi.

When it was Wang Quan's turn, he knew that he couldn't show his literary brilliance in front of Li Bai, Gao Shi, Cui Hao, and Cen Shen. So he tried to avoid the shortcomings, and ordered the man to find a few wine cups again, and poured them into different heights. Picking up ivory chopsticks, he gently played a song "Shengping Music" on the wine cup. Jingle bell, palace merchant horn sign feathers, many musical notes, none of them fall. It's also amazing!

At the end of the song, the audience was full of cheers. Bai Jingzhi knew that Wang Xun was not good at these elegant things, so while everyone was still immersed in the music played by Wang Quan, she quietly proposed to Wang Xun: "The concubine wants to present a song to everyone, can Erlang stroke the piano for me?" ”

"I can't ask for it!" Seeing that Bai Jingzhi was so considerate of herself, Wang Xun was very satisfied, nodded, and agreed in a low voice.

Yaoqin was brought by Bai Jingzhi herself, and she was by her side just now. When the noise of everyone became quieter again, he handed it to Wang Xun with a smile. Seeing that the two young men and women were affectionate, you and I were in love, and everyone knew that Wang Xun was suspected of cheating, and they also smiled and acquiesced. Suddenly, the piano music sounded, and Wang Xun followed the generous tone of the banquet just now and played a song that broke the array. This song, Bai Jingzhi sang almost every day on weekdays, all the tunes have long been familiar with the heart, stood up at the moment, and sang softly: "Autumn comes to the wind and sand on all sides, the people from outside the Saiwai are temporarily away from home, thousands of miles away, and the time will come to the end .........of the world sooner or later", and then, the tune turned urgent, and the singing gradually turned from soft and gentle to agitated, "The Han soldiers came out of the golden micro, and the sun shines on the iron........"

Breaking the array music is one of the most grand songs in the Tang Dynasty, and it is not suitable for one person to sing alone. But when Bai Jingzhi sings, she can lift weights and light, take care of every detail, and deduce her own feelings in the timbre. After singing a song, the aftermath lingers. In addition to the Jin Ge Iron Horse, a few children were born out of thin air. It makes people seem to see a pair of young men and women holding swords and walking side by side. The elders in the audience recalled their youthful days and smiled and savored them, such as the Qin brothers and Wang Quan, the three young talents, and their eyes gradually became a little obsessed.

The applause of everyone has ended, and the only people who did not perform in the field are Cui Hao and Aunt Gongsun. Not daring to let the woman stand in front of him, Cui Hao smiled and casually chanted an ancient meaning. borrowed the tune of Yuefu, but filled in the new words of young men and women. portrayed the scene in detail, making Wang Xun and Bai Jingzhi happy, but unconsciously blushing with shame.

When it was the turn of Aunt Gongsun, she got up with a smile. tidied up his clothes, and said to Bai Jingzhi: "I'll still do my old job." I wonder if my sister can play the piano for me? ”

"My sister's sword dance is terrifying, I'm afraid my sister's piano sound is too feminine, and it is difficult to match my sister's dancing posture. Why don't you find Master Gao? Bai Jingzhi thought about it and whispered to the virtuous.

"Bring the harp!" Gao was benevolent and ordered his men to borrow Yaoqin from Bai Jingzhi. I tried a few notes lightly, and then said with a smile: "Which tune to play, Gongsun, please choose!" ”

"It's okay, the master is just playing it!" Aunt Gongsun held a sword as a salute, and her words revealed confidence that was difficult to hide.

"Then let's sing the song!" Gao Shi plucked the strings with a smile, "It's also in line with the bearing of Gongsun everyone!" ”

"Master Gao is really good at choosing!" Aunt Gongsun smiled and followed the sound of the piano.

The water tune song is also a very, very grand miscellaneous song, starting from the beginning of the battlefield scene, until after the hundred battles, the triumphant return, the soldiers and their wives and children at home reunited, and they held a lamp to celebrate together. There are eleven stacks before and after, and each stack has a very different style. Or impassioned, or magnificent, or gentle and tactful, or lingering and low. wrote all the emotions of the man and the beaudoir, which is the most difficult to deduce.

But all of these complications are difficult to do. It's even more difficult to help Aunt Gongsun, who has been famous in Beijing for nearly 20 years. I saw her move the lotus step lightly, turn around gracefully, and dance slowly to the rhythm of the tune. The loneliness of the recruits in front and the lovesickness of the beauties in the rear are vividly expressed.

In terms of age, Aunt Gongsun is more than twice as old as Bai Jingzhi. But the lightness of his posture still seems to have just reached the curtain. Graceful, weak and boneless, the pair of sharp blades in his hands set off more and more cold as frost. With the change of tune, this originally gentle and weak figure became stronger little by little. It's like when a woman becomes an adult, she suddenly becomes the daughter-in-law of someone else's family from the pearl of her parents' palm. From a carefree life to having to do everything in your power to support a family. Shouldering the burden of a thousand catties after her husband's expedition with a weak grass body, the audience all sighed.

Subsequently, the two armies fought. A wisp of the woman's soul flew to the front line by the moonlight, turned into a ball of sword light, and fought side by side with her husband. The enemy army is killing on all sides, and its momentum is like a tide. Jianguang and Zhengfu persevered in the tide of enemy troops, but they never gave up. After a hard fight, Seio was wounded. Jianguang flew back to his home in the Central Plains, although his heart was full of worries about his husband, he pretended to have a smiling face in front of his mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Turning his head, two lines of clear tears fell against the moonlight.

Zhengfu went out to battle with an injury, and the sword light accompanied him again. Like lightning in the sky, like a dragon soaring, killing the Hu people and retreating. Zhengfu and Jianguang struggled forward, splitting through the tide of enemies, and directly taking Shan Yu from the Chinese army's sweeping formation. Countless wolf riders came to escort the car in surprise, and the husband let out a long howl, and the sword turned into a white rainbow, and the cold air was awe-inspiring, so that everyone did not dare to stare.

"Choking", the tune turns again. Recruit people to make meritorious contributions, return to the country across horses, register twelve turns, and report to the imperial court in Beijing. The sword light slowly flew back, and reunited with the beauty. Comb in the mirror, pluck out the premature gray hair, and wait silently.......

Eleven stacks of songs, each stack shows a different scene, and the artistic conception contained in each stack is expressed by Aunt Gongsun in the slightest. The sorrow is heartbreaking, and the blood is boiling when it is impassioned. Eleven stacks were over, and the wine in the glass and the dishes on the low table were already cold. The guys in the restaurant who stood on both sides and waited for the guests forgot their duties, their eyes widened one by one, their mouths opened wide, and their souls had already flown away with the dance of Aunt Gongsun, and they didn't know where they had gone!
