Chapter 154: About the Guqin (continued)
Xu Yang was very fascinated by what he heard, and now he is like a sponge, frantically absorbing knowledge like water, but he doesn't know how much water his sponge can absorb.
Yang Lao really likes Xu Yang's attitude of serious study, and suddenly has the idea of accepting Xu Yang's disciples into the WTO, in the antique industry, there are also many ancient habits, for example, Yang Lao will now occasionally guest visit the professor of history or archaeology in the university, and many people will call some Professor Yang or Teacher Yang when they see Yang Lao.
But no one really calls him master, and in this industry, although the literal meaning of master and teacher is the same, there is a big difference in nature.
It's just that I think that Xu Yang has been studying here with Donald, and it is not easy for him to force other people's apprentices. I had to continue: "Xu Yang, look at your Jiuxiao Huanpeiqin, this is an authentic standard instrument of the Tang Dynasty Lei's Qin, which is highly admired by the pianist as a "fairy product"!
First of all, let's take a look at the shape and characteristics of this instrument. The shape of the piano is thick, and the round head and the adduction double arc waist, which is said to be the "Fuxi style", and is more than the Ming engraving book "Guqin Schema" with an adduction arc.
The whole body of this piano is made of sycamore wood. Purple paint, many places of lacquer repair, small snake belly broken lines, pure antler gray tire appears in the smoothed broken lines, antler gray tire with arrowroot cloth as the base!
The length of the piano is 124. 5 cm, shoulder width 21 cm, tail width 15. 5 cm, thickness 5. 4 cm, base thickness 1. 5 cm. The dragon is oblate, and the lattice is a thin piece of paulownia wood connected to the right side. The intra-abdominal Nayin is slightly raised, and it is in the shape of a round-bottomed groove under the concave of the swamp, with a depth of about 2 cm and a width of 3 cm.
Let's take a look at the inscription above. The top of the piano back pool is engraved with the seal book "Jiuxiao Huanpei" 4 words, and the seal text is engraved below the pool "contains" the big seal side, and the right side of the pool is engraved "beyond the sky, and the Taiji is free. Tingjian's "line book 10 words, the left engraved "Leng Ran Xi Taigu, Poetry Mengzhai Collection" line book 10 words and "Poetry Dream Zhai Seal" side.
Above the foot of the piano is engraved "haze 'spring' wind is fine, and Langlang ring is sound." The curtain is new Yanyu, and the old dragon of the sea is 'groaning'. Su Shi Ji "23 characters in regular script!" Feng Marsh is engraved with an oval seal of "Santang Qinxie" above, and "Chu Yuan Zangqin" is engraved below. The left side of the abdomen is engraved with the inscription of Xu Kai book "Kaiyuan Gui Chou three years chop" 7 words. In the above inscriptions, "Jiuxiao Huanpei" and "including" are printed as old engravings at the same time, and Su, Huang inscriptions and belly paragraphs are all engraved later!
The first pair of guards is made of rosewood, according to the Guangling school guqin master Xu Qi's "Wuzhi Zhai Qin Language", it should be installed during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. "Shimengzhai" is the nickname of the famous guqin artist Yehena Lafuni Yinbu in Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty. "Santang Qin Xie" and "Chu Yuan" are both aliases of Liu Shiheng in Guichi at the end of the Qing Dynasty!
From here, we can see that the owners of this piano from ancient times to the present are mostly celebrities. It seems that the words of a good piano tuner are not false at all. Xu Yang, I hope you can treat this qin well in the future. ”
Yang Lao said a lot, Xu Yang remembered them one by one, and looked at the guqin lying there quietly from time to time. This guqin is a priceless treasure, although he 'spend' tens of millions of gold, but even if someone pays tens of thousands of gold, he will not change it.
Yang Lao didn't want to talk about it anymore, for an old man like him who loved the piano like his life, seeing this heirloom guqin today, he really felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Xu Yang took the piano out of the case, placed it flat on his legs, and tried to pluck it on the strings, and ding~ a single and pleasant sound came out.
Gao Boli made a "huh" sound from his mouth after hearing this voice. Not only him, but Donald was also shocked. The reason is that Xu Yang just plucked the strings casually and could indeed produce such a cheerful and pleasant monosyllable, but they remembered that when Yang Lao played it professionally that day, it was like a piercing sound like fingernails scraping glass.
Yang Lao smiled, it seems that his statement is indeed correct, this guqin really chose the young man in front of him. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. It's a little ridiculous, but it really makes him want to do it.
Yang Lao straightened up and suddenly asked, "Xu Yang, I see that you also like this piano very much, and I also heard that you have a deep knowledge of music." This heirloom guqin has chosen you, you will never let him be lonely forever, will you? Are you interested in learning to play the guqin?"
"Old thing, you had this idea!" Gao Boli said loudly.
"What did I have in mind, I just asked Xu Yang if he had the heart to go to the guqin, do you want such a good piano to be used as an ornament!" Old Yang's careful thinking was guessed by Gao Boli, the old man, and his face was a little unbearable, and he retorted angrily.
"I think you're still dead in this heart! this kid probably won't be able to enter your 'door'. He is the heir of the two old things of the Lu family, otherwise you think I will put such a good seedling, and it will be your turn?"
When Yang Lao heard Gao Boli talk about the two brothers of the Lu family, his face changed slightly, he looked at Xu Yang fixedly, and said in his mouth: "No wonder, no wonder! No wonder your young tea ceremony attainments are so high, I should have thought that I was Brother Lu's senior disciple a long time ago, and I seemed a little 'Lang'!"
Xu Yang was a little dazed, he understood the meaning of Yang Lao's words, Yang Lao wanted to accept himself as an apprentice, and he was also 'very' excited, because he really wanted to learn how to play the guqin. But looking at the situation, Elder Yang seemed to have given up this idea when he knew that he was the two apprentices of Lu Feng and the place.
"Elder Yang, in fact, I have the idea of learning to play the guqin, since I started to enter the antique industry, probably because I have learned too much ancient culture, I am more and more interested in the ancient music handed down by our ancestors, but I don't understand what this has to do with my two masters?"
The three old men, you look at me, I look at you, they all looked at Xu Yang with a surprised look, they didn't understand why Xu Yang would ask such a question!
In the end, it was Gao Boli who spoke first: "Xu Yang, there are no outsiders here, our three old guys and your master all belong to the same place." I don't know if your master told you?"
Xu Yang heard the words of the three old men, and his mind turned, and he immediately thought of the eight 'gates' of the world, could it be that these three people are all from the eight 'gates' of the world, think about it, which of these three people in the world is not a master of the five cars of the rich and rich, and they are all some old people. How could we not know the location of the eight 'gates' of the world?
Nodding and saying, "The master said!" Xu Yang did not say that he is now the 'door' master of the tea 'door'!
"Although our 'sect' is considered unofficial, but we also have our own way of acting, didn't your master tell you something about this?"
"This ...... That one...... Didn't say!" Hearing Xu Yang's words, the three old men looked up at the sky speechlessly. This kind of behavior is like that old guy did it.
"Actually, it's normal that you can worship under the 'door' of the two of them, because the two of them are brothers after all. You are going to inherit their mantle, and we are also only students and apprentices who have not inherited the mantle, if you worship us as a teacher, then you will inherit the mantle in the future, I say so, you understand!"
Xu Yang heard the words of the old man Gao Boli and finally understood the problem. It turns out that this is the case, it is indeed the case, and now I have taken over the tea 'door' of the eight 'gates', and if I worship under the 'door' of a few old people, things will be very troublesome. No wonder Donald has never accepted himself as an apprentice, it turns out that the root of the matter is here.
Xu Yang said helplessly: "But I really want to learn the guqin." ”
"Huh...... Hahaha......" The three of them laughed, and Xu Yang, who was laughing, was a little hairy, but Donald finally stopped laughing and said: "You kid is usually 'very' smart, why are you stupid now." Didn't you say that although we don't have apprentices, we have a lot of students. If you want to learn the guqin, you can go to Lao Yang to learn it when you have time!"
Thinking of this, Xu Yang happily said to Yang Lao: "In the future, please ask Yang Lao to bother to teach me this stupid student!" "If you kid is stupid, there are really few smart people in this world! Be modest! However, old man, I am also very interested in you, if you are interested in my "hidden" technique, you can also come to me to learn from me!" Gao Boli said with a smile.
At this time, Xu Yang really began to lead to the unknown high sky!
