So, in an update of zuihou this year, 12 to xiexie everyone as always, every red ticket, every monthly pass, every reward, every subscription, 12 sincerely thank you all m(__)m so 2014 we zaijian.
——Even Su this year, zuihou once begged for collection, clicked, subscribed, drip dividing line~(≧▽≦)/~——
To the south of Luoyang City, about ten miles away, there are two mountains of Xiangshan and Longmen Mountain facing each other. And the water of the Yi River flows through it. Therefore, this canyon has been called "Yique" since ancient times. After Emperor Yang of Sui moved the capital to Luoyang, he deliberately built the main gate of the palace facing Yique. Because the emperor was the true son of the dragon, Yique was renamed Longmen.
Longmen here is green mountains and green waters, Vientiane is shining, the environment is quiet, and the climate is pleasant. On the cliffs of the east and west mountains on both sides of the Yi River, the cave niches are dotted and dense like beehives. The inside is full of Buddha carvings. Its shapes are varied, the shapes are different and dazzling. Not to mention the religious implications, just talking about artistic attainments is also the pinnacle, teaching people to be dizzy.
The construction of the Longmen Grottoes began in the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty. After that, it has been more than 120 years since the Eastern and Western Wei, the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou, and the Great Sui. The emperors of all dynasties have built grottoes in Longmen for Buddha. Historically, this act of digging grottoes continued throughout the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty, and did not end completely until the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty.
However, Chen Sheng and Ba Fenghan did not come here to appreciate these Buddha statues and murals and other artistic treasures, but to practice.
As if only in the blink of an eye, time flies. Although it seemed to be a very short time, he put aside everything and only concentrated on martial arts cultivation, and every time he never slept with swords, fists and palms were dismantled, no matter whether it was Chen Sheng or Ba Fenghan, he felt that his potential had been greatly developed. Even if it is not said to be a thousand miles, there is still a progress of at least a few hundred miles. After ten consecutive years in this way, both of them are really real, and they have a completely new feeling compared to the past.
Ming rì is the eleventh rì, the scheduled period of retreat is coming to an end. The so-called one piece and one relaxation is the way of civil and military. Therefore, on this zuihou night, Chen Sheng and Ba Fenghan both stopped continuing to dismantle, and instead found a secluded place to meditate and digest what they had gained since ten years.
After nearly four hours of silent meditation, Chen Sheng, who sat cross-legged in the Longmen Grottoes, and the entrance of the Binyang Cave, which was built at the earliest, finally slowly opened his eyes. Immediately, he felt that Hull had changed from what he had seen before the meditation, and he felt a new and moving feeling.
Under the bright moon, the water of the Yi River meanders and rushes in the distance outside the heavy mountains, and the light waves are dotted, which is a wonder. The towering peaks stretch to the left and right on the other side of the river, and the rock walls are so heavy that you feel that it is difficult for birds to cross. The forest is luxuriant, the strange flowers and plants, the spring between the miscellaneous stones, the waterfall of the wall, for the dragon gate that looks solemn and solemn because of the construction of countless grottoes, adds a lot of fresh interest. In the meantime, Chen Sheng even had a wonderful feeling that he had been cleverly embedded between heaven and earth, there was no difference between inside and outside, my body was heaven and earth, and heaven and earth were my body. Flowing water cliffs, forests, flowers and plants are all part of one's body.
This feeling was incomparably wonderful and pleasant, which made Chen Sheng intoxicated, and he didn't want to "wake up". It is precisely because of this that at this moment, even if the three great masters of the world are personally present and the evil king yīn appears together, as long as they are not standing in front of Chen Sheng, then no matter what means they use, they can not imagine that there is a Chen Sheng here.
The sound of flutes suddenly came from a distance down the mountain. The sound of the flute rises and falls slowly in the elegant atmosphere of the wind blowing the leaves, and there is no flaw in the connection between the notes, although there is no strong change or protrusion high/cháo, but there is another charm that is entangled, until death. It is beautiful and beautiful, without the slightest vulgarity.
After a while, the sound of the flute gradually approached, but it suddenly converged, slowly dispersing into the evening breeze. In the light footsteps, a woman's voice sounded, and she praised happily: "Sister Shi, your Xiao skills are really unparalleled in the world. The most rare thing is not to follow the rules, do whatever you want, and come with a good rhyme. Alas~ I don't know when I will be able to catch up with Sister Shi in the singing arts. ”
The voice of this woman who spoke was very pleasant and moving. Even if it's just a normal conversation, it's like a lark chirping gracefully, which is better than any singing. Even though he hadn't seen him, this voice was by no means unfamiliar to Chen Sheng. In an instant, a graceful figure dancing immediately appeared in his consciousness. It is the world's first singer and dancer: Shang Xiufang.
Shang Xiufang's words fell, and then another Qingyue's sweet voice said: "It's just that I feel the beauty of this breeze and bright moon, and I just play a paragraph casually, where I deserve such praise from my sister?" Besides, why should the girl be so modest. I have only focused on Xiao Yi all my life, and it is not unusual to have some achievements. And the girl is not only not below me in singing, but also in the world is unparalleled in her dancing skills. Singing and dancing, sister, I can't compare. ”
Chen Sheng had never heard this voice before. However, judging from Shang Xiufang's words, the Xiao Le just now was played by this woman. can have such a supernatural Xiao Yi, naturally there is only the talented girl with Shang Xiufang's name, Shi Qingxuan.
Although Shi Qingxuan is famous for Xiao Yi, he does not make a living by selling art. It is said that she was willing to agree to perform in Manqing Academy before, completely because an ancestor in her family had a relationship with Ouyang Xiyi and Wang Tong, two martial arts predecessors. At the end of the song, she drifted away, and no one knew whether she had left Luoyang or was still here.
Shang Xiufang does make a living by selling arts. She debuted at the age of thirteen and became a sensation that year. Dignitaries and nobles from all over the world rushed to invite her to perform, and they were proud to be able to invite this talented woman. Of course, it is not that no one has thought of taking her as a concubine and enjoying her in a private room at night. But when the people of the four major gates in the world once united and publicly issued a declaration, declaring that if anyone dared to plot against Shang Xiufang, they would be hunted down by the four major gates. Therefore, although Shang Xiufang did not know martial arts at all, she traveled around the world to perform in this troubled world, and she was always safe and sound.
Such two good women, with the same talent and the same character, since they can meet each other in the troubled times, of course, they are familiar at first sight and cherish each other. Therefore, it is not surprising that they walked together. But...... Although it is only the time of the first shift, strictly speaking, it is not very late, but Luoyang City has also closed the city gate and is forbidden to enter and exit. The two of them actually came to Longmen to climb the mountain at this time, no matter how they thought about it, they felt a little strange.
The question was quickly answered. I only heard Shang Xiufang feel a little distressed, and sighed: "Alas~ Sister Shi, you are a genius in the sky." The sister is just a mortal, how can she compare with her sister? Even if there is a small achievement today, it is only because of stupid hard work. For example, the emperor invited me to enter the palace to perform a song and dance on the eighteenth day of the lunar month, but until now, I have not figured out how to choreograph this song and dance. ”
Shi Qingxuan said with a smile: "So my sister wants to come to Longmen Grottoes to watch the sculptures and murals of her predecessors to find inspiration, right?" ”
Shang Xiufang's tone always carried a little excitement and a little expectation, and said happily: "Yes." I heard that there is a grotto here in Longmen called Lotus Cave, which was carved and hewn during the Northern Wei Dynasty. The relief lotus at the top of the cave is carved and decorated with countless flying music gods around it, the posture is graceful, the zìyóu is unrestrained, the changes are endless, and the beauty is overwhelming. Legend has it that when the first rays of the morning sun shine on the flying gods, people who are destined to even see them singing and dancing lightly, and appreciate the musical skills from the heavenly palace. ”
"That's why you took me with you and ran to this mountain in the middle of the night." Shi Qingxuan smiled: "Sister, you are really a fun idiot. But without this persistent pursuit, you probably wouldn't have been able to achieve what you are today. But......" She suddenly sighed faintly, and said, "Although you can't live if you don't go crazy, in fact, sometimes, if you can learn to let go for a while, maybe you can get closer to your goal." ”
Shang Xiufang said: "Sister Shi, if you like something, shouldn't you work tirelessly to pursue it in order to have more hope of achieving greater achievements?" Weishenme said that learning to let go is closer to the goal? Ah......h Hehe, you know that he is good at martial arts, and he will definitely be able to hear us even if he is so far away, so he deliberately said this, let him get out of here quickly, and don't come to pester you again, right? ”
Before Shi Qingxuan could answer, he suddenly heard a clear man's voice coming from far away in the night sky, and said politely: "Shi Cainu, everyone, please rest assured, you two." Although Hou Xibai is a good man, he also knows that beauty is like a lotus, and he only wants to watch from a distance and dare not play blasphemous. Follow here, just for the many snakes, insects and beasts in the mountains and wilderness, if you disturb the two beauties, wouldn't it be a big disaster? Hou is not talented, volunteered, and is willing to be a flower messenger for the two beauties, but he will never dare to entangle the two more. ”
Inside the grotto, Chen Sheng heard the conversation between the three outside, and couldn't help but smile. Hou Xibai, an amorous son, is really amorous. Shi Qingxuan and Shang Xiufang, two talented women, as the parties concerned, must feel very bored, right? But Chen Sheng himself, as an outsider, only thinks that the amorous son is very cute.
