Chapter 11 The Seven Strings of the Piano
Han Xue smiled: "Okay, don't sell it, just say it." ”
Ye Chong cleared his throat and said in the tone of a storyteller: "Let's say that 20 years ago, our Yunze County No. 1 Middle School, a new Chinese teacher, about thirty years old, surnamed Lai Mingshiqi, because of the 89 student movement, wrote an impassioned petition, there was a political problem, and it was downgraded here. This teacher Lai is talented, and his ancestors are from a scholarly family, but because of his enthusiasm, his future is ruined, and he can't help but be disheartened and depressed. ”
Speaking of this, he learned to look like a storyteller, took a sip of tea, suddenly closed the virtual folding fan in his hand, and said: "On this day, Mr. Lai carried the wine jug and drunkenly shook it to the edge of Xianyue Lake. Raising his eyes, but seeing the autumn water growing together, Luoxia and the lonely bird flying together, thinking of the early Tang Dynasty Sijie Wang Bo Wang Zi'an was also guilty of his words, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of sympathy. He sighed, took a sip of wine, took a sip of wine, sighed again, and in a hazy state, he fell drunk on the bank of the fairy moon forest. ”
"When I woke up, it was midnight, but when I heard the wind moving the treetops, the shallow waves crashing on the shore, and the sound of insects chirping all around, my heart was clear. Thinking back on what he has done since the downward adjustment, giving up on himself, breaking the jar and breaking it, how to be worthy of his father's earnest teachings, I can't help but feel ashamed in my heart. ”
"I just wanted to get up and go home, and I worked hard, but I saw a quarter moon in the sky, which was several times larger than usual, and the next quarter moon slowly landed, and suddenly stopped when it was about three feet away from the lake, and the clear shadow on the quarter moon fluttered, and a person flew down, only to see that person curling Tingting, it seemed to be a woman. ”
Teacher Lai also said that he was drunk and dazzled, and rubbed it a few times before believing it. As soon as the woman fell, the crescent moon shrank suddenly, and hung idly in the sky, as if it had never set. But the woman really existed, and I saw her looking forward to the curved moon in the sky, constantly going back and forth, as if waiting for someone, but the person was delayed, and she couldn't help but be anxious. ”
"About ten minutes later, there was a sudden 'zheng' sound, and a wisp of piano sound fell from the sky. When the woman heard the sound of the piano, she seemed to be very happy, flew up, and circled in the air for a while, before falling back to the lake, like flying on the stone wall of Dunhuang. ”
"Teacher Lai hid in the dense forest, peeking at the fairy in the lake, and couldn't help but think of Cao Zijian's famous article "Luo Shen Fu" during the Three Kingdoms period...... The hair is like the moon covered by light clouds, and the fluttering is like the snow of the wind...... The body is flying fast, fluttering like a god. In his heart, he secretly said: "Could it be that God has belittled me here for a private meeting with the fairy?" At this time, Mr. Lai's heart was already like Cao Zijian, and it was 'pleasing to its beauty, but its heart was oscillating but not pleasant'. ”
Han Xue Gejiao smiled: "This Teacher Lai thinks it's quite beautiful. ”
Ye Chong continued: "As the sound of the piano continued to come, countless thin lines of water erupted from the lake around the woman, like a musical fountain, dancing and swaying with the sound of the piano. The woman clasped her hands to her chest and turned to look at it with surprise and delight. After a while, the sound of the piano vibrate, and suddenly a curtain of water rose, as thin as a light veil, around the woman, and then the sound of the piano changed slightly, as thin as a hair, faintly as if there was a sense of summoning. The woman was surprised when suddenly a red-tailed koi fish jumped out of the water curtain and slid over the woman's cheek, and the woman was startled at first, and when she saw that it was a carp, she smiled coquettishly. But listen to the sound of the clattering and clattering, countless colorful fish have jumped out of the water curtain, there are red guppies, pink flamingo fish, blue phoenix fish, yellow dragon fish, there are many kinds, countless, what is more strange is that these fish are fluorescent, colorful, even in the dark night, you can see very clearly. They chase and frolic in the water curtain, cruising in circles, and from a distance, they look as if they are flying in the air, which is beautiful to look at. Suddenly, the sound of the piano turned deep, and there was a faint sound of a dragon's groan, but the waves in the distance could be heard, and the water lines were rowing towards the woman from all directions, and at this time the colored fish no longer jumped out of the water. As the sound of the piano turned low and deep, the waterline gradually evolved into a huge wave. Although Mr. Lai was hiding in the dense forest, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened, and said in his heart: "What is this, how can it set off such a monstrous wave?" The nine white dragons rolled up nine water columns, up to dozens of zhang, rotating and transverse at the surface of the water, but also brought up countless fluorescent colored fish, for a while, the fish and dragon danced, magnificent and magnificent. Suddenly, there was a clear whistle, the sound of the piano stopped suddenly, and a man fell from the sky with the moon shadow on his back, his clothes fluttering and drumming in the long wind, and he was chic. The woman flew up to meet her, and the two of them hovered in the air for a few moments before slowly drifting back to the lake. As soon as the sound of the piano stopped, the nine white dragons disappeared into the clouds one after another. Speaking of this, Ye Chong was silent, looking at the lake in a daze.
Han Xue hurriedly said, "Why don't you speak?" ”
Ye Chong said: "Xue'er, you don't think that this couple seems to be Mr. Guqin and Sister Mengli. ”
Han Xue smiled coquettishly: "Are you still serious?" But judging from your description, it looks a little similar. ”
Ye Chong groaned: "When I first heard this legend from Teacher Lai, I didn't think so, and I thought that he had been hit suddenly and went insane. But now it seems that what he said may not be all false. ”
At this time, Han Xue also smiled, and said, "Then what happened?"
Ye Chong said: "Later, the couple walked to the lakeside and sat down on a big rock not far from Mr. Lai. The two of them had their backs to Teacher Lai, and they couldn't see their faces clearly for a while. It's just that the man's light robe is slow, and the woman's long skirt is on the ground, which seems to be the dress of the pre-Qin period, but the clothes and decorations are luxurious and the workmanship is fine, but it is far from being comparable to the pre-Qin period. Teacher Lai was frightened and frightened, hiding in the dense forest and not daring to make a sound, but his heart was pounding. I heard the woman ask, 'Seventh brother, is he...... Will they let us go?' The man smiled softly and said, 'What can they do if they refuse to let us go, can they keep me?' The woman was silent, and after a while she said, 'But in this way, we may not be at peace.' The man hugged the woman and said softly, "Sister Liu, don't worry, I have promised to help them find out the whereabouts of the Exquisite Heart." The woman raised her head, looked at the man's face, sighed and said, "That "Exquisite Heart Formula" has been lost for more than a thousand years, and it has been found for more than a thousand years one after another. Seventh brother, it's all my fault, this ...... It's hard for you. The man took the woman's hand and said softly, "Sister Liu, to be with you, I have nothing else to ask for in this life." Whether we find this exquisite trick or can't find it, we can always live a happy life in peace. The woman said happily, 'Really?' The man hummed, got up, looked at the lake, and said, "I promised them that they would be limited to three years, and if they couldn't find it within three years, I would go to Lingxi Tai to plead guilty!" This time, Mr. Lai saw the man's face clearly, but saw that his eyebrows were clear, his spirit was flying, and his heroic spirit was compelling. The woman threw herself into the man's arms with a thud. Mr. Lai saw that the couple was deeply in love, and thought of his wife and children who were divorced due to his own downgrading, and couldn't help but feel sad and shed tears in a daze. Later, the two sat down and talked for a while, but Mr. Lai didn't understand it very well, what Lingxi Gongzi, what Fire Spirit King, it seemed to be narrating the beginning and end of "Linglong Heart Formula", and later mentioned Fusang, that is, Japan, but Teacher Lai understood. The two of them walked away hand in hand after the discussion stopped, but their bodies were extremely fast and beautiful, and they were already a hundred meters away in an instant, and before Teacher Lai could see clearly, they had already disappeared between the forest banks. Speaking of this, Ye Chong muttered to himself: "The seven strings of the qin, the seven strings of the qin, it is indeed very similar to Mr. Guqin." ”
Han Xue hummed and said: "The name is indeed very similar to the piano art, but the demeanor is far from the same. ”
Ye Chong said: "If that Luoshen-like fairy is really Sister Mengli, and she is really unfortunate enough to fall into the deep cliff, then that young man will be grief-stricken and collapsed, and it is not impossible to become Mr. Guqin." ”
Han Xue Gege smiled: "This is a legend." ”
Ye Chong smiled faintly and said, "But I always feel that this legend is extraordinary." ”
Han Xue said: "Who knows if it's the nonsense that adds oil and sauce to Teacher Lai? Didn't you say that he was a scholarly family?"
Ye Chong smiled: "That's the same, some scholars are like this, don't say anything about it, it's all over the place, spittle, as if I'm sorry for their belly of ink." ”
After hearing this, Han Xue smiled coquettishly: "Aren't you talking about me?"
