Chapter Forty-Seven: The Dance of the Piano and the Sword
Aside from the more personal hobby of changing clothes, among Mr. Le's various preferences, what can make Lu Zheng extremely admired is his piano skills.
Mr. Le usually loves to caress the piano the most, his piano sound is sometimes excited, sometimes scattered, sometimes as clear as the mountains and flowing water, making people have a vivid feeling of fresh breeze, sometimes it is as lonely as the depression of all things, people can't help but have a lot of meditation, I don't know where I am.
Mr. Le once said to Lu Zheng: "What is happiness? Everything has its own happiness, and the joy of life is to live in symbiosis with friends between heaven and earth." If all things in heaven and earth are my friends, then I will not be lonely when I am born between heaven and earth, and this is the ultimate happiness. The so-called piano sound is the resonance between people and the piano, and the way of resonance is between the human fingers and the strings.
If the finger force is too heavy, people will bully the strings, and if the finger force is too light, the strings will bully others. If you don't know that there is a piano, you don't know the piano, and you don't know the sound of the piano, you are separated. Therefore, people and piano cannot deceive each other, let alone be separated. If you deceive each other, you will take it, and if you are separated from each other, you need to know each other and be compatible, so that it is the art of the piano.
The same is true between people and people, and even between people and all things, and between heaven and earth. In this way, life is not calm!"
Lu Zheng listened to these words, and remembered Tang Xiaojiu, Mingkong, Lao Song, Leprosy Qi and others, Brother Jiu and Mingkong needless to say, Lao Song also took great care of himself, but Leprosy Qi was bullying himself and Brother Jiu, as well as the snake demon, that was directly to eat himself. How can I make friends with them? But Mr. Le's words must be reasonable, and it is always good to remember them in his heart.
Although he didn't understand these words, Lu Zheng loved to listen to Mr. Le play the piano. Even just watching Mr. Le's fingers pluck on the strings made him feel very comfortable, as if his own heartstrings had been touched, so he was often fascinated by the sight of it, and almost forgot everything. If Mr. Yujian Le stroked the piano after drinking, that would be the thing that excites Lu Zheng the most. Lu Zheng still remembers the first time he saw Mr. Le playing the piano after drinking, a scene that he will never forget.
It was a full moon night, and Lu Zheng had just lived in Sun Moon House for a month. After dinner, the sky was empty, only a full moon fluttered in the sky, and there was a clear light landing with the wind. Mr. Le drank a lot of wine, and did not leave as usual, but walked to the edge of the flowerbed with staggering steps, glanced at the flowerbed, and with a wave of his sleeves, a low table appeared on the ground, on which was Mr. Le's piano. Lu Zheng was accustomed to this unpredictable supernatural power, and he was not surprised.
In front of the piano case, Mr. Le's body twisted, as if he was drunk and drunk, so he sat on the ground, waved his hand, and immediately discharged a string of gold and jade sounds on the strings, stirring under the moonlight, extremely pleasant!
Mr. Le nodded slightly with some drunkenness, as if he was quite satisfied with the sound, his back was straight, his fingers jumped on the strings with great dexterity, and he picked out a sign with the fingering of the hook.
As soon as the sound entered his ears, Lu Zheng's heart jumped with it, and he felt a heat in his heart dissipate from his heart, and his whole body was extremely comfortable, and Li Yi and Xin'er on the side were also attracted and turned around together.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Le stroked the strings with his left hand, closed the five fingers of his right hand, and then released them, and the four fingers popped out together to hit the strings. The sign sound changes into a palace sound, and its sound is long and voiced. Mr. Le's fingering changes again, first wipe and then kick, turn into Shang Yin, then Yu Yin, and then Horn Yin.
Lu Zheng learned the piano with Mr. Le, and naturally heard that this was the beginning of learning the piano, and Mr. Le taught him a piece called "Five Tone Generation Score". This piece is in the order of the five elements, playing the five notes and transforming each other, because it contains all the fingering of the piano, so it is often used to practice fingering, it can be said to be an introductory song.
However, Mr. Le's performance at this time does not follow the customary aquatic order of water and wood, wood and fire, fire and earth, earth and gold, and gold and water. Rather, it begins with the birth of fire, and as for the resurrection of wood, the fire recovers. Compared with the water type, the fire type is more enthusiastic and exciting!
Therefore, Mr. Le's piano sound is very majestic, and the initial sign is easy to hide the ethereal in the lowness, which makes people suddenly feel a sense of emptiness. And in that nothing, it is not just empty and silent, but there are faint traces of restlessness in it, as if it is the scene of countless fires buried in the vast wilderness, when the heavens and the earth are first opened, and the majestic vitality is buried.
Then Mr. Le waved his fingers to hit the strings, the sound of the piano changed violently, and the newly opened world sprouted in the dense atmosphere. In the wilderness, the firelight is everywhere, illuminating the figures of all things, running or walking, flying or swimming, and the sound of the piano deduces a scene of heaven and earth creating creatures! The sound of the piano is so shocking and deafening, Lu Zheng and Xin'er feel a little out of breath!
That day, the earth changed endlessly, until it reached the extreme of change, and it seemed to have reached a peak. Finally, all the movement came to a standstill in an instant. For a time, the world was silent, everything was silent, and the smoke and dust of change fell to the ground. In the silence, Gong Yin appeared, like a newborn from destruction, scattered and soft, flickering and disappearing in the extreme distance in all directions, and it was impossible to detect it if you were not careful. At this time, the sound of the piano is clear, like the stars scattered in the night sky, and its echo slowly appears in the sound of layers of waves, bringing bursts of continuous water vapor.
Lu Zheng could hear it well, and the heat in his heart was changing violently with the sound of the piano, wandering all over his body, making his blood churning, and his mind could hardly hold himself, when he was suddenly at the critical point of the outbreak, with the sound of the piano, everything turned deep, and the heat in his body seemed to have entered a void.
I heard a sigh in my ears, and saw a streamer in front of me, and the teacher Li Yi snatched it out of the pavilion, and the black robe flew away, covering his face, but between the flights, a dazzling silver light lit up on his waist, and it was a long sword that he pulled out!
A silver dragon swam in the field, its sword unsheathed, but it was strangely silent. Lu Zheng's eyes were wet inexplicably, and he was deeply moved by this scene, he never expected that the teacher who was so old-fashioned and restrained in his every move on weekdays would have such a flamboyant and powerful sword dance. The silver dragon in the field was Li Yi's long sword, his movements opened and closed, slow and stretched, his steps were heavy but did not make a sound, but even his clothes did not make a sound, but he slowly accumulated the eruption of liliang in each swim.
When the long sword dragon danced, suddenly a beautiful phoenix roared into the nine heavens, and the silver dragon roared again and again, Mr. Le's original drunkenness dissipated, and there was an indescribable charm in his expression, and his eyes were blazing, like hiding the world. Fingertips beating, plucking, chopping, locking, whisking, stabbing, fingering changes, both hands keep advancing and retreating on the strings, bringing out countless piano sounds, such as wind roaring, such as thunder, such as rain falling, such as flowers blooming, in an instant, like all things welcome spring, lively and extraordinary. And the liliang accumulated by the silver dragon's swimming also burst out in an instant, and suddenly the dragon and phoenix roared together, the sound was full of clear sound, and all the sounds were in unison.
At this time, the flower garden on the side seemed to be touched by the sound and sword dance of the piano in the field, and the flowers began to sway and bloom, shining with unprecedented brilliance in the silver light under the moon, and the various insects that hid in the flowers also began to chirp loudly, all echoing the wonderful sound.
Mr. Le's piano sound was so moved that a hundred flowers bloomed in the night, and a hundred insects resonated, Lu Zheng and Xin'er were fascinated by it, and they were completely fascinated!
Li Yi's posture jumped, rushed into the air, his limbs popped out, and the long sword went straight to the nine heavens, like a shining meteor in the sky, and then Xiangxia stabbed down. At this time, Li Yi had already turned over and landed on the ground again and again, and when he stood still, the long sword fell in front of him, and with a flick of his fingers, the long sword let out a dragon groan, which was in line with the sound of the piano.
Suddenly, Lu Zheng suddenly felt a burst of agitation, and his whole body surged with an incomparably happy feeling, only to feel that there seemed to be a light in his eyes, he suddenly felt something in his heart, looked up at the sky, and saw the sky illuminated by the full moon, and I don't know when there was a huge cloud entrenched in the sky above the Sun and Moon Lu, like an unfolded canopy. And under the moonlight, the edge of the cloud was faintly diffused with a faint colorful light!
As soon as the long sword was retracted, the silver light was extinguished, and a long roar came out of Li Yi's mouth, stirring up the clouds and filling the heavens and the earth. At this time, the sound of the piano also changed to zuihou, a clear and strong string sound, like a crack across the sky, Mr. Le looked at the clouds in the sky, stood up, swept his sleeves to the sky, and shouted: "Scatter!"
With this drink, the colorful light of the canopy-like cloud immediately disappeared, and the cloud rolled sharply around it towards the center, shrinking smaller and smaller, and in a short time, the whole cloud disappeared without a trace!
The clouds disappeared, and the sound of the piano echoed and trembled in everyone's ears, far away, filling the heavens and the earth. Let people's thoughts drift away from it, and they don't know what to do.
In this wonderful piano sound and sword dance, Ping and Li Yi in the music cooperate very tacitly, and the interpretation is so wonderful and shocking. Mr. Le flicked his sleeves, and even the clouds in the sky dispersed without a trace! Lu Zheng and Xin'er were so surprised that they couldn't speak at all.
Suddenly, the aftermath was overwhelming, the world was as usual, and at this time I heard a "whoosh" sound, Lu Zheng and Xin'er followed the voice, and Xin'er was even more surprised and shouted at the same time: "Oh, those flowers!"
It turned out that as the sound of the piano dissipated, all the flowers in the flower garden fell from the branches in an instant, leaving only the empty branches abruptly exposed to the night! All the insects that were singing also fell from the branches at the same time, and the insects were all fluttering, as if only empty shells were left, and they fell all over the ground in an instant!
The flowers withered, and the insects fell to the ground! Mr. Le's sigh came from the wind: "The piano is the cause, and all things are sensed, and the days are exchanged for blooming overnight!"
Lu Zheng didn't know at the time, thinking that what Mr. Le was talking about was that his piano sound made the flowers fight all the essence, bloom and wither overnight. Many years later, he realized that what Mr. Le said that night was "love is the dictate of love, all things are sensitive, and the days are exchanged for blooming overnight!" and at that time, he really understood why the flowers withered overnight, and the songworms tried their best to die!
However, after that night, Mr. Le rarely played the piano like this again.
