Wei Zi is proficient in music and piano.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Yu Boya, who was proficient in temperament and superb in piano skills. He was a famous pianist at that time. When Yu Boya was young, he was smart and eager to learn. He has learned from others and his piano skills have reached a high level, but he always feels that he can't express his feelings about all kinds of things superb. Boya's teacher knew his idea and took him to Penglai Island in the East China Sea by boat, so that he could enjoy the natural scenery and listen to the waves of the sea. Boya looked up and saw the waves surging and splashing; Seabirds are roaring and singing; The lush trees in the forest are like entering a fairyland. A wonderful feeling arises spontaneously, as if the harmonious and beautiful music of nature is ringing in the ear. He couldn't help playing the piano, his voice turned at will, and the beauty of nature was integrated into the sound of the piano. Boya experienced an unprecedented realm. The teacher told him, "You have learned."

One day, he took a boat to the mouth of the Chuanjiang River and was caught in a storm. The boatman quickly rocked the boat to the edge of the cliff and anchored to rest. After the rainstorm stopped, Boya saw that the Chuanjiang River among the mountains had a unique charm and could not help but become addicted to the piano, taking this opportunity to play on the boat. Suddenly one of the strings was broken, and when I looked up, I saw a woodcutter standing on a cliff not far away, listening! Boya asked: Why is my little brother here? The man replied, "The little man was burned as firewood and was stopped by the rainstorm. Suddenly listening to the piano, I feel addicted! Boya asked happily, "since you listen to the piano, do you know what the old lady just played?" "The woodcutter said," What adults play with is how you feel when you see the rivers in the mountains after the rain. The piano sounds like that mountain! "! I also heard the sound of the river flowing in the mountains on the piano.

Yu Boya was stunned! He pushed the piano to his feet, gave a military salute and said, "It's really a barren hill and beautiful jade. I visited my bosom friend everywhere today, and now I want to see my little brother again. My wish has come true in my life! Then drag him to face the castle peak to worship. Boya said again; As soon as I know you, call me the song "Mountains and Rivers" that I just played! It's agreed that we will meet here next spring to talk.

On the appointed date, Yu Boya came to the Yangtze River estuary again, but Zhong Ziqi didn't come to meet him. When I asked, I knew that the little chef hippo had died a few years ago! Boya burst into tears. When I came to the grave of the little chef hippo, I hit the tombstone and said, "It's a pity that I had been visiting my talent before I met this bosom friend, and I left so young. Yu Boya knelt in front of the piano, tears streaming down her face. Zi Qi, listen to another song played by Boya for you! After playing this song, Yu Boya said with tears in her face: "From then on, my bosom friend will never be heard again!" Say that finish, he picked up the piano and threw it at the stone in front of Zhong Ziqi's grave, and the piano body was shattered. Since then, Yu Boya has never played the piano again, but he left a song "Mountain Flowing Water" for later generations.

The allusions about high mountains and flowing water are as follows:

According to Lu Chunqiu. "This is an article", playing the piano, listening to songs, playing the piano and looking at Mount Tai. Zhong Ziqi said, "It's good to play guqin! Just like Mount Tai. "When I was young, I aimed at running water. Zhong Ziqi said, "It's good to play the piano, just like running water. "After Zhong Ziqi's death, Boya broke the piano and never played it again, because he thought there was no drummer in the world.

According to Liezi, Boya is good at drumming and Zhong Ziqi is good at listening. Boyaguqin, aiming at the mountains, Zhong Ziqi said,' OK, I am as tall as Mount Tai!' Determined to manage water, Zhong Ziqi said, "Good, like a river!" Zhong Ziqi will understand what Boya said. Boya swam in the shadow of Mount Tai. When he died in the rainstorm, he stopped at the bottom of the rock and felt sad, so he played the drums with the help of the piano. At the beginning, it was an exercise of "Lin Yu", and even the sound of "mountain collapse" was heard. Every time a song is played, Zhong Ziqi needs to be poor for its benefit. Boya gave up the piano and sighed, "OK, OK, my son listens to her husband! Imagination is still my heart. Where can I escape? "

The song "Mountains and Rivers" also comes from this allusion. Boya was the best guqin player in ancient China, while Zhong Ziqi was the earliest music connoisseur. The piano music "Mountain Flowing Water" we are listening to now is the version of the late Qing Dynasty. It was written by later generations according to the stories of Zhong Ziqi and Boya, and there are many kinds of music books. There are two kinds of Qin music and Zheng music, both of which have the same name and different styles.

Guqin music During the Warring States Period, there was a story of Qin Le about high mountains and flowing water, so it was also said that "high mountains and flowing water" was written by Boya. The music score was first seen in The Secret Music of the Ming Dynasty (written by Zhu Quan at 1425). The solution of this score is: "Mountain Flowing Water is two songs, but there is only one. The first ambition is to care about mountains and rivers, saying that benevolent people are Leshan. The ambition of the future is to care about running water, which means that the wise are happy with water. The Tang dynasty is divided into two songs, regardless of section. The highest mountain is divided into four sections and eight sections of flowing water. " For more than 2,000 years, two famous guqin songs, Mountain and Running Water, together with the story of Boya guqin meeting a bosom friend, have been widely circulated among the people.

With the development of Qin's performing arts since Ming and Qing Dynasties, "mountain" and "water" have undergone great changes. The legendary secret score is not segmented, but later the piano score is segmented. Among the numerous music scores since Ming and Qing Dynasties, Running Water, which was adapted by Zhang Kongshan, a pianist of Sichuan School, was included in Tian Wen Song Score (1876) compiled by Tang Dynasty in Qing Dynasty. The sixth paragraph of the technique of "rolling, brushing, dialing and noting", also known as "seventy-two rolling and brushing water", is widely used because of its vivid image and blending of scenes. According to the research of Qin family, before Tian Wenqin's Song Score was published, there was no sixth paragraph played by Zhang Kongshan in all Qin Scores, and the whole song had only eight paragraphs, which was consistent with the solution of the Magic Secret Manual. However, the biography of Zhang Kongshan was increased to nine paragraphs, and then the Qin family followed suit.

There is also a guzheng song "Mountain Stream and Running Water", the music is quite different from piano music, and it is also based on "Boya Guqin meets a bosom friend". There are many genres of music books. The most widely circulated and influential is the Biography of Zhejiang Wulin School, with elegant melody and meaningful charm, which has the appearance of "majestic mountains and flowing water".

Lu Pai's "Mountain Flowing Water" is an ensemble of four ditties: Qin Yun, the wind shaking the bamboo, the bell ringing at night and the rhyme, also known as four paragraphs and four paragraphs of brocade.

The Mountain Flowing Water of Henan School is based on the folk song Old Liu Ban, with a fresh and lively rhythm. Folk artists often play this song when they meet for the first time to show respect and make friends. These three songs have nothing in common with the guqin song "Mountain Flowing Water". They are all different songs with the same name and completely different styles.
