Early the next morning, Chen Caozhi had made an appointment with Xu Miao and Liu Shangzhi to climb Lion Rock together. After waiting for a long time, Liu Shangzhi didn't come. Knowing that Liu Shangzhi was tired of having a sweetheart, he was afraid that he would not be able to get up early, so he committed suicide.
Together with Xu Miao, Ran Sheng, and Lai De, the four of them climbed up to the Lion Rock. Standing on the raised rock with the lion's head, they looked around at the flat wilderness, crisscrossed rivers, green mountains everywhere, and the hidden city walls. The beauty of Wu County made people feel relaxed and happy.
Ran Sheng held a slender wooden box in his hand. In the box was a Keting flute covered with a green cloth bag. In the box were precious camphor slices used to prevent moths. Because at the turn of autumn and winter, the weather was dry, so the weather was dry.
To prevent the flute tube from cracking, a thin wooden stick wrapped in cotton cloth is inserted into the flute tube. At night, the wooden stick is soaked, wrapped in cotton cloth, and inserted into the flute tube. This is called a "Xiao gallbladder".
This flute gall can keep the flute tube moist and prevent it from drying out. After each playing, Chen Caozhi would use the flute gall to wipe away the moisture on the inner wall of the flute. This is all about the maintenance of the flute in the secret book of Dong Xiao given by Huan Yi.
Chen Caozhi followed the secret method meticulously. He also loved the Keting flute very much and knew that it was precious. Dongxiao flutes with such a wide range and mellow and beautiful tone were very rare.
Xu Miao also knew about Huan Yi's gift of the flute and was quite envious of him. However, Xu Miao did not have a strong sense of music and was not suitable for learning temperament like Liu Shangzhi.
Chen Caozhi tried to play Ji Kang's guqin piece "Changqing" on the Dongxiao. The range and expressiveness of the guqin and the Dongxiao were very different. Chen Caozhi always felt that he was playing the wrong part, and suddenly thought: "Yanle half-character notation records the music score."
The method is very rough and gives the performer a lot of room for free expression. Why should I stick to Ji Kang's music and even feel the barrier between the piano and flute? Why not use its rhythm and rhythm to express my own feelings? "
Thinking of this, Chen Caozhi suddenly felt enlightened. He licked his lips and boasted, moved his fingers, and the beautiful flute sound flowed on the top of the Lion Mountain——
For some reason, twelve-year-old Ran Sheng would burst into tears every time he listened to Chen Caozhi playing Xiao. Of course, Ran Sheng was holding his back, and he thought Chen Caozhi couldn't see him crying.
After playing the flute and shedding tears, Ran Sheng felt that his often manic heart would feel much better. Otherwise, he would have run around Xiaojing Lake, faster than a galloping horse. It would take him two or three laps to calm down, and the eyes were filled with tears.
Only then will the blood energy subside.
Liu Shangzhi didn't arrive until three o'clock in the morning, and even yawned several times. Xu Miao shook his head and reminded: "My father will be here soon, and he will be unhappy when he sees you looking listless."
Liu Shangzhi said with a bitter face: "Sorry, I didn't sleep much all night. That Gu Kaizhi is a complete idiot. He caught me talking about painting all night. I don't understand calligraphy and painting. If I chimed in with a few words of praise, he became even more interested.
, I kept talking, I was drowsy, poor Gillian almost knocked a hole in the earthen wall of the thatched cottage, but Gu Kaizhi didn't realize it, and when dawn came, he fell down and fell asleep, I only took a nap and then
Come and listen to the lecture. Let’s talk about it. This free-rent house is really not that easy to live in.”
At this time, Dr. Xu Zao walked to the gallery and was about to give a lecture on Li Tong's "Sound Class". Chen Caozhi and Xu Miao suppressed their laughter, spread out their scrolls of paper, and took notes with their pens.
Gu Kaizhi is not very famous yet, and the reputation of his "three unique skills" has not yet spread. This time Liu Shangzhi has learned one of Gu Kaizhi's three unique skills, "Crazy Skills".
Chen Caozhi in the thatched cottage was listening intently, but Chu Wenbin across from him was thinking about how to provoke Lu Qin and Chen Caozhi into fighting. After half an hour, Chu Wenbin came over when he saw Dr. Xu Zao walking out of the corridor.
After reading Lu Qin's notes, he praised: "Brother Ziyu's running script is really wonderful and unique."
Lu Qin said proudly: "This is the writing method inherited from my Lu family. The "Pingfu Tie" left by my ancestor Shi Henggong (i.e. Lu Ji), I study it once every day, and the "Pingfu Tie" circulated outside is just a copy. How?
Compared with me, I have improved on the original work!"
The southern gentry were incompatible with the northern gentry in all aspects. Even the aesthetics of calligraphy were quite different. Based on the theory of running script that had been popular since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the northern gentry was headed by Wang Xizhi and Xie An, and their calligraphy style was beautiful and elegant.
He admired Lu Ji and Gu Rong's calligraphy style, which was graceful and colorful, and his style was simple and simple. Lu Qin was a direct descendant of Lu Ji, so he was naturally very conceited in his running script, which he had put a lot of effort into.
Chu Wenbin said flatteringly: "I, the Chu family, also have a copy of "Pingfu Tie" written by Lingzu Shihenggong, but I feel that the copy is not very good, far inferior to brother Ziyu, so I have a request, please ask brother Ziyu to copy the daily work.
I copied the "Pingfu Post" as a gift to my brother, so I can try to figure it out carefully and look forward to improving my calligraphy."
The land bird liked hearing this and said, "It doesn't matter, I will bring it to you tomorrow."
Chu Wenbin naturally thanked him repeatedly, but Lu Qin said again: "Brother Wenbin, since you and Chen Caozhi are from the same hometown, I have to trouble you with something -"
Chu Wenbin's heart skipped a beat and he said hurriedly: "Brother Ziyu, no matter what you say, I will obey all orders."
Lu Qin nodded and said "Hmm": "It's still the same thing as yesterday. My Seventh Sister's beloved precious jujube 'Jade Edition' is wilting, because Chen Caozhi knows a little about the art of gardening, and saved it last time."
Qimei's Mo Ju was alive, so Qimei begged me to find this Chen Caozhi. Because of Chen Caozhi's poor character, I originally wanted to ignore it, but Qimei loved the 'Jade Edition' and Ruona 'Jade Edition'.
I don’t know how sad I will be when I die. I, as the elder brother, feel sorry for myself. I think that Mengchangjun used cocks to croak and dogs to steal, so why not let Chen Caozhi treat the jujubes?
Yes, haha - Brother Wenbin, go tell Chen Caozhi for me."
Chu Wenbin was angry that Lu Qin asked him to do such a thing as a servant. He changed his mind and nodded: "Okay, brother Ziyu, wait a moment, I will spread the news for you." He got on his wooden clogs and walked out of the north thatched cottage to see Chen.
When Cao Zhi was about to leave, Liu Shangzhi called out to him: "Chen Cao Zhi, please go slowly. I have something to ask you -"
Chen Caozhi stopped and glanced at Chu Wenbin. Seeing his oily and arrogant look, he was about to ignore him and walk away when he saw Chu Wenbin spread one hand behind him and said: "See that guy
Mr. Lu is not the nephew of the prefect of this county, and his father is the Minister of the Fifth Army. He was annoyed with you for being rude several times, and wanted to punish you severely and expel him from the county. Out of consideration for the fact that he is also a student of the Xu School, the special network was opened.
One page, as long as you kowtow to him and apologize, he will no longer pursue you——"
"Fart!" Liu Shangzhi cursed when he opened his mouth.
Chen Caozhi stopped Liu Shangzhi and glanced at Lu Qin, who was sitting in the thatched cottage to the north. Lu Qin was looking at him. Chen Caozhi withdrew his gaze, stared coldly at Chu Wenbin in front of him, and said: "Lu Qin
Do you really want you to spread the word like this? I'll ask him right now -" He walked calmly towards Land Bird and climbed the stone steps of the thatched cottage to the north.
Chu Wenbin was a little panicked. He didn't expect Chen Caozhi to be so calm and not agitated at all, and he had the courage to ask Lu Qin. He hurriedly caught up with Chen Cao from behind, trying to grab Chen Cao's shoulders. At the same time, he shouted: "How could Lu Qin do that?"
Ignore you, don’t bring shame on yourself!”
Chen Caozhi quickened his pace, avoiding Chu Wenbin, and came to the somewhat astonished Lu Qin. He bowed slightly and asked, "I heard that you have something to do with me?"
Lu Qin secretly blamed Chu Wenbin for not being able to do things and asked Chen Caozhi to ask him directly. At this time, he could not ignore it and stood up and said: "I want you to heal a jujube. Are you sure?"
Chen Cao said: "But Chu Wenbin didn't spread the news on your behalf like this. He used your name to humiliate me. I don't know what his intention is?"
Lu Qin raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Wenbin who was following him, with doubts and questions in his eyes.
Chu Wenbin was panicking and said forcefully: "I told Brother Ziyu, but Chen Caozhi didn't appreciate it and refused."
Chen Caozhi was not angry and said calmly: "Chu Wenbin, is that what you said? This is a school, please say it again -"
For some reason, Chu Wenbin felt flinched under Chen Caozhi's unhurried questioning. Realizing this, he was particularly angry. He would be afraid of a lowly bitch. It was really unreasonable. He said angrily.
: "Who are you? Why do you ask me to repeat it again?"
Chen Caozhi smiled and said to Lu Qin: "The children of the Lu family are all smart people. They should not be taken advantage of by others. They will not be used as a big stick in the hands of others to hit others." After a pause, he continued.
He said: "You have found the wrong person to send the message. I will not heal the jujube for you unless you ask me again." After saying that, he cupped his hands, stepped down the steps, and went east side by side with Liu Shangzhi.
Lu Qin was confused, shocked and angry. He didn't expect to be molested by Chen Caozhi again today. He was so angry that he glared at Chu Wenbin and walked away.
