Heiankyo love story

The moonlight suddenly changed subtly, and a figure of a monk appeared on the lyre bathed in the moonlight. He was wearing the monk's robe when he died, his face was gray and his expression was stiff, but he tried his best to restrain his madness , looking calmly at the girl opposite.

Suddenly there was a suppressed exclamation from around, which startled Jiang Xue, who thought that this group of people couldn't see the wraith, she immediately looked at Abe Seimei, only to see him smiling and nodding, frankly acquiescing that it was him credit.

Jiang Xue couldn't help smiling, and stopped paying attention to her surroundings. She looked up at the monk opposite, and suddenly thought of what song to use for fighting music tonight.

"My name is Jiang Xue. This piano has no name. It was a gift from my sister. The song I will play tonight is called "Changle Wuyou". It is said that it is the national music of a country named 'Cai'. Everlasting joy and worry-free."

The monk opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't make a sound after several attempts. He could only look down at the eight-stringed qin, and then looked up at Ji Jun, who was famous in Heianjing.

This action caused exclamations from the onlookers. They thought it was a provocation, implying that the wraith would kill the girl on the opposite side by playing the harp. They looked nervously at the person who was facing the wraith, but saw At this moment, Fujiwara Yukihime, who was supposed to be under the greatest pressure, actually laughed.

"Don't worry, I understand." Jiang Xue faced the monk's grievance with an unusually transparent attitude, and said clearly, "Musicians don't need words to talk, and your piano sound is the best way to talk. I I will listen carefully. Of course, please listen carefully to the sound of my piano—it’s a pity that I didn’t get to know you when you were alive, but I hope you can at least stop regretting before returning to reincarnation. There are still too many beautiful music sounds in this world, and I dare not say that I have exhausted them to the limit, but maybe my piano sound can let you see that there are infinite possibilities ahead of the road you are pursuing."

The monk nodded slightly, looked down at the eight-stringed qin in front of him again, put his hands on the strings, and made a gesture of about to play.

Jiang Xue also stroked the silk strings, and couldn't help smiling when she thought of the origin of the piece she was about to play, just like a street performer when the mood came occasionally, and she played the huqin while telling the story.

"This is a folk legend. According to legend, in a certain world, the Emperor of Heaven once destroyed the world and recreated thirteen countries. He called the country in the middle the 'Yellow Sea' and handed it over to the 'Queen Mother of the West' for management. After that, He set the rules for this world. The kings of the other twelve countries can only be selected by the "Kirin" who is the embodiment of "benevolence". No matter what his background is, whether he has talent or not, no matter how old or young he is, no one knows about King Qilin Xuan. What is the standard, even the 'Kirin' does not know when the 'Apocalypse' will come."

Huqin plays the prologue of "Long Le Wuyou", the tune is gentle, and reveals a faint chill and bleakness, as if after a heavy snow in winter, you can only see desolation everywhere, but under that, the music will evoke a short and cheerful section from time to time , making people feel like hearing the innocent laughter of a child, even if it is wrapped in silver, it still can't stop the carefree heart of a child.

The harp also started playing.

What the monks are best at is the music given to the Buddha first. It has a strong religious atmosphere, solemn and solemn, full of the devout heart of the monks to worship the Buddha, and people can describe the majesty of the Buddha statue from the sound of the piano.

The two pieces of music were intertwined, not only did not have the slightest elegance of the ensemble, but instead made an incompatible sound like a clash of swords.

Heaviness and lightness, solemnity and naughtiness, these are completely different emotions flowing out of the song, as if they are clearly distinct, all of which are robbing the audience's attention.

The most painful thing at this time is the audience on the side.

The sound of the eight-stringed qin is indeed beautiful, and the sound of the huqin is equally beautiful. They couldn't control their minds. They only felt that their ears were filled with the sound of the qin chanting Buddha for a while, and then they heard the light laughter. It is as if a person has been split in half, and the two strands of rope on the left and right are pulling themselves respectively.

Jiang Xue looked up at the crowd, seeing that they wanted to cover one ear, and immediately laughed.

Forget it, these are not her classmates in the music hall after all, and she doesn't know how to resist the aggressive music, so she should be more serious.

It was within her expectation that the monks of the Jiaowang Huguo Temple chose such a piece of music, so she did not choose from the seven chapters of "Nine Chapters of Music", and deliberately found a happy piece of music. Otherwise, these people will have a nervous breakdown.

Jiang Xue deliberately stopped for a while, listened carefully to the sound of the monk's piano, smiled slightly at the other party, and continued: "The people of the Twelve Kingdoms only know that the 'Kirin' will elect a 'king' for their country, so that Wang Changsheng Not old. As long as there is a king on the jade throne, the country will be blessed and the weather will be good. If the jade throne is empty, demons will breed and disasters will arise. Go back to the right way, otherwise Qilin can only slowly die of illness, and then the king will die together. This is the world of the twelve kingdoms... Among the twelve kingdoms, there is a country named 'Cai', and the king of the country is called 'King Zhai' '. "Changle Wuyou" is rumored to have been composed by court musicians during the reign of the last king of King Zhai."

The sound of the huqin turned several times, gradually becoming brighter from the initial gentleness, like the melting of winter snow, and all things sprouting, with natural joy from vigorous vitality.

"At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, King Zhai had an appointment with Caiguo Qilin, and he would definitely make Caiguo as beautiful as a picture scroll in Qilin's dream. Humbly accepting advice, speaking widely, and brainstorming, it really turned the barren land of Caiguo into prosperity and prosperity in 50 years. This is where the great event of worry-free began-the king and the unicorn live forever, all officials are enshrined in immortals, and people with both talents and virtues But he has been working hard for the people for many years. The country of Cai is becoming more and more prosperous, singing and dancing are peaceful. At that time, in the country of Cai, the roads were not picked up, and the houses were not closed at night. There were only a few prisons in a year. People. Everyone in the Twelve Kingdoms is envious, and they all say that the "year without worries" is worthy of the name."

Jiang Xue paused again at this point, and waved the bow in her hand more lightly.

The most gorgeous and touching part of the song "Changle Wuyou" is the few passages used to describe the worry-free years. They are full of gorgeous and ingenious ideas, and I wish I could put all the beautiful words in the words on the music. , to use the most complicated techniques to express the flourishing age that can only exist in the imagination of musicians.

Is there an immortal king in this world?Is there a general who will not change for a hundred years?

Even the prosperous and prosperous age will come to an end in a few decades, and it has not been seen that everyone has such a blessing to catch up with the peaceful and prosperous age, let alone hundreds of years of worry-free years?

Worry-free, worry-free, worry-free forever.

What it depicts is the peaceful and prosperous world that everyone longs for, the great unity of the world that everyone has the same heart, and the most basic and greedy desire of most people-tranquility, peace, abundance, goodness and beauty.

Because no one has seen such a prosperous age that lasted hundreds of years, the musicians will be more eager, especially the wandering musicians who were born in the troubled times take this piece of music as their sustenance, pour out their yearning, and burn Passionate, let go of ambition, in order to create such a worry-free year with his own hands, and make the legendary story reappear in the world!

The hottest thing in this world is not blood, but those burning dreams that have been painted with all their might.

Who has not longed for it?

It is precisely because I have never had it that I desire it even more.

These passionate admirations and longings become the driving force for those who create music.

In the dissemination of the past dynasties, more passages have been added to "Changle Wuyou", and different versions have been interpreted. The best musicians of each era have endowed themselves with the light of all their talents. "Worry-free" has really become "joy-free music", it will evoke all the memories of happiness in everyone's heart, and pour out all the love and dreams enshrined in the music to the audience. People who listen to a piece of music can get a little glimpse of the legendary prosperity and glory that is like Hua Xu's dream.

The tug-of-war between the huqin and the eight-stringed qin gradually became clear.

The song of worshiping the Buddha, which had been performing its own beat before, became disordered, because the person performing the music unconsciously began to be distracted to listen to the story of the worry-free year, and was uncontrollably attracted by "Changle Wuyou" .

The Buddha is merciful and saves all living beings. All living beings are suffering. He redeems sins and cultivates virtues in order to return his soul to the pure land.

The pursuit of "pure land" has never been forgotten by monks.

Just like this monk from Jiaowang Huguo Temple.

The more turbulent the year, the more demons and ghosts appear frequently, the more these monks want to use the "pure land" to guide the residents of Beijing to do good.

"Genuine bodhicitta, always concentrate on thinking, and keep pure thoughts successively."

However, no one has seen the "Pure Land".

At this moment, right here, this pious monk saw the appearance of the Pure Land from the sound of the huqin.

What he was looking for, what he had longed for, and what he wanted to travel to with all sentient beings was such a place of bliss and worry-free.

When this idea was born, the monk was doomed to be defeated. He could no longer concentrate on his performance, and even began to unconsciously cooperate with the sound of the huqin. He yearned for the pure land more than the young girl in front of him. Walk into the world depicted by the sound of the piano.

So what if this harp was really given by the Buddha?

The Buddha must have allowed him to temporarily own this eight-stringed qin for this song at this moment.

The musician's madness to shake the world with his own power and bring a "year of worry-free" to the world coincides with the wish of the good monk to save all living beings, which arouses deep sympathy with the monk. Recalling the years when he chanted scriptures and worshiped the Buddha, he began to recall the past when he taught scriptures and solved doubts and troubles for others.

Win?

Fighting for a name?

What's the use?

He fell into the temptation of fame and fortune, but was relieved by others with the sound of the piano.

The resentment condensed around the monk gradually dissipated, and his figure became thinner and thinner. Once the resentment and unwillingness were lost, the resentful spirit would return to an ordinary soul, and then follow the law of heaven and join in reincarnation.

It's just that he still can't bear it.

The monk continued to play the eight-stringed qin to the sound of the huqin before his hands disappeared, desperately seizing the last moment to add luster to the carefree music, and when he saw his fingers began to disappear, he felt a little nervous. With a smile, he broke the eighth string with his last strength.

With a sound of struggle, the strings of the harp broke, and the spell of the eight-stringed qin was also lifted.

The monk's soul gradually radiated light, and the gray-black ominous aura was replaced by the light golden Buddha's light, and the cassock also returned to the splendor of his life.

Such a change naturally attracted everyone's attention, including Jiang Xue who was still playing music.

Jiang Xue seemed to be aware of it, looked up at the other party, skipped half of the paragraph, and played the last verse directly.

"Worriless for more than 400 years may only exist in legends, but this heart and dream will never fade. If everyone makes a wish, one day, the year of worry-free will come true in the world."

The monk nodded slightly, smiled at the crowd, just like Kasyapa picking up flowers, reciting the Buddha's name, and disappeared quietly.

This scene was so mysterious that the onlookers couldn't help holding their breath and concentrating, not daring to move rashly.

Jiang Xue played the music until the end before standing up, bowing to the opposite side and saluting, doing all the etiquette of Dou Le, and giving the opponents of Dou Le the respect he deserves.
