    [1] "Ancient Ideas" Li Qi. Poems

    The man is the long march, and the little one is a quiet guest.

    Gambling wins under the horse's hoof, because it is seven feet lighter.

    Don't dare to kill before, you must be like a hedgehog's hair.

    ? Huang Yunlong bottom white clouds fly,

    Can't return without repayment.

    The fifteenth year of the Liaodong Little Women,

    I am used to playing the pipa to explain the singing and dancing.

    Today is the sound of the Qiang flute [1],

    Make my army cry like rain.

    Du Qiu is a native of Liaodong, who came to Yunnan with the conquest army a few years ago.

    She is good at singing and dancing, and is familiar with playing the pipa.  Today, however, she played a piece of "The Song of Exodus" on the Qiang flute to cheer for the contest between the two generals Polo and Qusiban. Several girls in Mongolian costumes sang and danced. With this beautiful melody, Liu Haohao led the dance and sang:

    [Song] "Please sing me an exodus song, use the forgotten ancient language, please use the beautiful vibrato to call softly, the great rivers and mountains in my heart, the scene that only exists outside the Great Wall.

    Who said that the tune of Serge is too sad?  If you don't like to listen, it's because there is no desire for you in the song.

    And we always have to sing again and again, like the golden light shining for thousands of miles in the grassland, like the wind and sand whistling across the desert, like the banks of the Yellow River, beside the Yinshan Mountains, the hero rides a strong horse, and returns to his hometown on horseback.  The hero rode a strong horse, and rode a horse to return to his hometown.  "

    A whistling horse neighing, a harmonica [2] passing through life, a melodious Mongolian long tune[3]

    [Song] "And we always have to sing and sing again and again, like the golden light shining for thousands of miles in the grassland, like the wind and sand whizzing across the desert, like the banks of the Yellow River, beside the Yin Mountains, the hero rides a horse and returns to his hometown. The hero rides a horse and rides a horse  Return home with honor. The hero rides a strong horse, and returns home with honor on a horse.¡±

    The first is a large-scale dance "Bodhisattva Dance" with hundreds of girls dancing; interspersed with various entertainment programs for soldiers to participate in performances with geisha; finally, the grand finale ""  Will enter the wine"¡ª¡ª

    There was no sound on the stage, or even in the entire venue.

    Suddenly, a thick mezzo-soprano sounded in the night sky, and Du Qiu, who was dressed in a neutral and flirtatious attire, sang:

    "If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River will come up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning. If you don't see it, the mirror in the high hall is sad and white-haired, like blue silk in the morning and snow in the evening."

    Following this, the drums of war were beating;

    "If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River will come up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning. If you don't see it, the mirror in the high hall is sad and white-haired, like blue silk in the morning and snow in the evening."

    The shouts of the soldiers aroused in the venue like an avalanche.

    See also, more than a hundred warriors, marching in neat formation, chanting mightily:

    "To be happy in life, you must have fun. Don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon. I am born to be useful, and I will come back after all the money is gone. Cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle is a pleasure, and you will have to drink three hundred cups. Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng  , will drink, don¡¯t stop drinking. Let¡¯s play a song with Junge, please listen to me.¡±

    ? Du Qiu's singing is magnificent and grand, with a great ups and downs from low to high, and the singing is soul-stirring and majestic, lingering for three days without a break:

    "The bells, drums, and jade are not expensive. I hope I won't wake up after being drunk. The ancient sages are lonely, but the drinkers leave their names."

    The warriors took vigorous dance steps and chanted forcefully:

    "To be happy in life, you must have fun. Don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon. I am born with talents that will be useful. When all the gold is gone, I will come back. ?It is a pleasure to slaughter sheep and cattle, and you will have to drink three hundred cups at a time.  Mr. Cen, Dan Qiusheng, will drink, don't stop drinking.  A song with Junge, please listen to me.  "

    Du Qiu sang again:

    "In the old days, King Chen had a feast of banquets, and had a lot of wine and fun. Why does the master say that he has little money, so he has to sell it to the king."

    Liu Haohao invited the soldiers to sing along with them:

    "Five-flowered horses, thousands of gold, Hu'er will exchange for fine wine. Will drink, will drink, sell the eternal sorrow with you, and sell the eternal sorrow with you."

    Warrior chant:

    "You must be happy in life, don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon; I am born to be useful, and I will come back after all the gold is gone."

    Du Qiu's singing sang the hearts of the soldiers and aroused the passion of the generals. They sang together and pushed the party to a boiling point.

    Liu's well-arranged party gave Wang Shouchang a lot of face. Everyone toasted and congratulated the veterans frequently, and Wang Shouchang was in high spirits again.

    Notes

    [1] Qiang flute

    "Yuan Shi. Liyue Zhi Wu" records: "Qiang flute, made like a flute and long, with three holes."

    Qiang flute, legend has it that it was invented by the Qiang people who nomadicly lived on the northwest plateau during the Qin and Han Dynasties, hence the name Qiang flute.  Qiangdi is an ancient single-reed air-sounding musical instrument in my country, with a history of more than 2,000 years. It is popular in the places where the Qiang people live in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in northern Sichuan.

    Qiangdi has two tubes with several holes (there were five holes in the past, but now it is mostly six holes). It is made of oil bamboo that grows on the local high mountains. The bamboo joints are long and the tube body is thin.  The double tubes are tied side by side and tied together by twine.

    The Qiang flute is also called the Qiang pipe. It is played vertically, and the two pipes emit the same pitch. The tone is clear and high-pitched, with a sense of sadness.

    In the Tang Dynasty, Wang Zhihuan left such a famous sentence in "Liangzhou Ci": "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, an isolated city of Wanren Mountain; why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not pass Yumenguan." From this poem, we can know  , Qiang flute has been widely popular as early as the Tang Dynasty.

    The original Qiang flute was made of bird leg bones or mutton leg bones. It has two uses, it is not only a wind instrument, but also a whip for riding horses, so it is also called "horse whip" or "whip blowing".  Before the Western Han Dynasty, the Qiang flute had only four sound holes. In the 1st century BC, after Jingfang (77 BC to 37 AD) added a sound hole for the highest pitch at the back, there were five sound holes.

    Regarding the evolution process of the Qiang flute, Ma Rong of the Later Han Dynasty recorded in his "Flute Fu": "In modern times, the double flute originated from the Qiang, and the Qiang people were not able to cut bamboo. The sound of the dragon's singing is not seen in the water, and the sound of cutting bamboo is similar. Yan.  The hole on the top of it is connected with the hole, and it is easy to hold if it is cut like a whip. Yijing Junming only has the rhythm, so the original four holes are added with one. After the hole added by Junming, it is called the completion of the five tones of Shang Sheng."

    There is also a description of the Qiang flute in Cen Shen's "Bai Xuege Sends Judge Wu Back to Beijing":

    "The north wind blows the ground and the white grass breaks, and Hu Tian blows snow in August; suddenly, like a spring breeze overnight, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom.

    Scattered into the bead curtain and wet curtain, the fox fur is not warm, and the brocade quilt is thin; the general's horn bow cannot be controlled, and the iron coat of the guard is cold and hard to wear.

    The vast sea is surrounded by hundreds of feet of ice, and the gloomy clouds are gloomy;

    ? One after another the evening snow descends to the gate, and the red flag is frozen by the wind; the east gate of Luntai sees you off, and when you go, the Tianshan Road is covered with snow;

    I can't see you when you turn around the mountain circuit, and stay in the horse riding place in the sky above the snow.  "

    [2] Harmonica

    Also known as mouth strings, mouth reeds, iron plucked body-sounding musical instruments.  In Mongolian, it is called "Temur Huer".  Mongolians have a long-standing custom of playing mouthstrings, especially women.  Since the Ming Dynasty, Kouxian has played a more prominent role in Mongolian music and has been incorporated into the court band.

    [3] Mongolian long tune

    The Mongolian long-tune folk song, "Long-tune" is pronounced "Uertingduo" in Mongolian, which means long song. It is the traditional Mongolian music and is known as the "living fossil of grassland music".

    ? Mongolian long-tune folk songs have a unique singing form with distinctive nomadic and regional cultural characteristics, with long and soothing melody and open artistic conception.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
