Chapter 57: Giving Ocarina
"Hehe, this is no problem, then I'll invite you. Anyway, I did have a relationship with him, and I vaguely knew where he lived, and with this token, it was easier to talk. ”
Chow Tai Fook was not pretentious, and immediately agreed.
In fact, he also wants to find an opportunity to get together and make friends with "Wu Zihao", after all, he has become a good friend with a master of the I Ching and a master of gossip and divination, and maybe he can better grasp every encounter in his life, pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and strategize.
Seeing that Chow Tai Fook readily agreed to work for him, he was also very happy to seek defeat.
"Brother, brother, I told you last time by the waterhole, I usually like to play the flute and flute, it is better to hit the day than to hit the day, today our brother and brother will play together. ”
Seeing the young brother he hadn't seen for a few days, Chow Tai Fook finally remembered one of his great hobbies - playing the ocarina.
In the shopkeeper's room, there are countless kinds of ocarina, most of which are purchased, customized, auctioned, and some are donated by friends and good people.
Chow Tai Fook casually took out two good-textured ocarinas from a tall cupboard.
The two ocarinas were made by a well-known workshop in a famous ceramic city, and they cost a lot of money.
Ocarina is a kind of wind instrument, also called Yangxun, Waxun, earth flute, drum flute, Okarina flute, etc.
At present, most of the more popular ocarinas in the Chilan Continent are wind instruments that originate from the Western Heavens, resemble triangles, have whistles, and are usually fired with clay. In the same category, there are single-pipe ocarinas and multi-pipe ocarina.
Ocarinas come in different shapes and sizes, and their timbre is different depending on the shape, size, and material.
"Brother, what kind of musical instrument are you, it looks a little strange?"
The first time I saw Ocarina, I was a little curious.
"Brother, this is an ocarina. This kind of musical instrument belongs to a popular musical instrument on the rivers and lakes, easy to learn, quick to learn, even people like the elder brother who have no musical foundation, according to the corresponding ocarina score, after a short period of practice, can also play a satisfactory tune. ”
"The ocarina is a good thing, not only can it play chromatic tones, it can be easily transposed, but it can easily play up to seven tones. In particular, it has a beautiful timbre, with a crisp and loud sound of a small ocarina and a deep and tactful sound of a large ocarina. A long time ago, my brother began to be obsessed with this little guy, and he didn't blow it for almost a day, and his heart was not at peace. ”
"Brother, this little instrument called the ocarina is not so magical. ”
The first time I came into contact with the ocarina, I thought that my brother was exaggerating a little and didn't think so.
However, Chow Tai Fook did not continue to explain that, but began to try to blow one or two.
To be honest, although the ocarina is a popular musical instrument, it has a strong musical expression, the beautiful and elegant whistle flute of the West Heaven, the low and desolate erhu, and the corresponding professional performance of the ocarina can also simulate the performance, and its musical rendering power is not inferior to the former.
This instrument, in particular, is easy to learn and can be taught by ordinary people.
Chow Tai Fook explained the principle and blowing skills of the ocarina, looked at the score, and learned it as soon as he failed.
During the demonstration, Chow Tai Fook blew his favorite song "The Original Scenery of Hometown" to Qiu Defeat. This piece was originally a famous song by the master of Oriental music, Sojiro. Through the fresh and melodious ocarina music, he expounds his feelings for all things in nature and the mountains and rivers.
It is said that Sojiro studied pottery in a village in Mt. Tochigi, and after completing his studies, he moved to live in Motegi Town in eastern Tochigi Prefecture, where the natural scenery is beautiful, and there is a beautiful Rinsui River, the Naka River, where catfish are abundant.
The background of the master's composition is inseparable from the natural scenery, and there is another point, which is full of Zen lifestyle, just like the Zen Buddhism's "self-purity" theory, which pays attention to the supreme Zen, from the emptiness, such as the purity of the lotus flower, in an environment far away from the hustle and bustle, make your own ocarina, and carry out farming, planting and other farming.
Sojiro once said that the ocarina is the cultivation of the air.
With Chow Tai Fook's full of breath and flexible pressing between his fingers, "The Original Scenery of Hometown" sounded, and the sound of Tao fell roared.
Intoxicated by defeat, I couldn't help but close my eyes, and this picture came to mind, such a poetry:
A wisp of breeze was blowing, and the wanderer, who was still asleep, was suddenly awakened by a distant memory. A few floating clouds in the sky, decorating the green of the life of thousands of trees on the earth, a deep breath, thus passing through the moving beauty. The first beauty is here, hometown...... Hometown is always the most beautiful place in the heart of the wanderer. The footsteps away from home are gradually moving away, but the simple country sound is still clear, because it is integrated with the blood, connected to each other, and closely related.
The golden waves of wheat are inspiring the harvest of the earth, the songs of the first years are the praise of the harvest season, and the wisps of time are carving colorful legends.
After the years, a thousand turns, endless thoughts, a lifetime together...... The concern of the Yiren, looking at the sunset, the distant return of the wild goose, bringing a leaf of news of the lover, the curling smoke, wafting a warm feeling: in the past, he and she showered a wisp of breeze, and wrote some vows of the mountain alliance and sea oaths......
As an amnesiac person, he completely does not remember his family, even lovers and friends.
But amnesia does not affect the scenery in his memory and the longing for his hometown.
As he listened, he burst into tears.
After playing "The Original Scenery of Hometown", Chow Tai Fook himself woke up from intoxication.
"Brother, I never get tired of listening to the ocarina, but you have to try to play it to get more insights and gains. ”
"I don't have anything suitable for you here, so I might as well give you this ocarina, and practice it when you have free time. ”
Chow Tai Fook said while handing the score of "The Original Scenery of Hometown" to Qiu Defeat.
"Okay, I'll be disrespectful, thank you, brother, for your kindness. ”
He nodded, and was not polite to the old brother.
"By the way, we've been blowing for so long, and we're really a little hungry. Tonight, my brother will be the east, please taste our Piaoxiang Restaurant's signature dishes, spiritual food - Buddha jumping over the wall. ”
Suddenly, seeing the night when the window was lit up, Chow Tai Fook couldn't help but pat the back of his head.
So, he walked out of the shopkeeper's room with his defeat, asked for a private seat in Piaoxiang Restaurant, and asked his subordinates to order food and send fragrant tea and wine.
Soon, the steaming, fragrant Buddha jumping over the wall dish was served, and suddenly, the meat fragrance overflowed, so that people couldn't help but move the chopsticks, and the two were not polite, and directly started the dining mode.
Buddha jumping over the wall, also known as full altar incense, Fu Shouquan, meat fragrant delicious, not greasy, rich in nutrients, delay aging, enhance immunity, is a good tonic. Many monks like to use this decoction to absorb the power of the spiritual materials in the Buddha's jumping over the wall without any omission, and use them for various preparations before promotion.
The main ingredients of this spiritual dish include 50-year-old sea cucumber in the East China Sea, wild abalone, shark fin of the South China Sea flying beast, sheep angelfish lip, 100-year-old turtle skirt, and dried scallops, razor clams, fish maw, fish maw, scallops, and more than 20 kinds of raw and auxiliary materials such as 50-year-old sika deer animal deer tendon, Dansan pigeon eggs, Heihe mutton, spiced pork belly, pork ribs, ham, lamb elbow, hoof tip, hoof tendon, duck zhen, old hen chicken breast, yellow-billed duck duck breast, chicken gizzard, duck gizzard, mushroom, winter bamboo shoots, etc.
After tasting it, I was full of praise for this delicacy.
There is a story that has been circulated in the market that one day a real giant Qing in the Piaoxiang restaurant banquet guests from all over the world, when this delicacy on the altar, one of the teachers was fascinated, triggering the poetry, immediately chanted: "The altar Qi meat incense floats in the neighborhood, and the Buddha hears the abandonment of Zen and jumps over the wall."
All the cultivators or celebrities who have eaten the Buddha jumping over the wall love to eat this expensive dish, so Piaoxiang Restaurant relies on this delicacy to rise in the restaurant such as the rice line of Cannes, so as to obtain countless reputations and wealth.
Seeing that he was happy and satisfied, as the shopkeeper of Piaoxiang Restaurant, Chow Tai Fook was even happier.
