Let you wander, you become a national tourism image ambassador

Chapter 472 Guan Shanyue!!!
After doing some morning exercises with Sophia in the room, Qin Yuan packed up his things, then rode his bicycle with Erha and Bomber on another cycling trip. This time their destination was WLMQ.

After leaving the city of Dunhuang, Qin Yuan habitually turned on his sports camera and began to shoot today's opening remarks.

"Good morning, everyone. It's 9:30 in the morning now. It's a bit late, but we have stayed in Dunhuang long enough these days.

So I can’t stay in Dunhuang today, I have to set off for the next destination. The trip to the Hexi Corridor ended perfectly.

Therefore, from now on, I have started a new stage of cycling, and the final destination of this stage of cycling is WLMQ in the Western Region.

The whole journey is 1200 kilometers, and I plan to complete it in about 10 days, so let’s start now! Gogogo! ”

Qin Yuan hadn't ridden a bike for a few days, and he couldn't help but feel excited when he got on the bike again. He liked the feeling of being on the road all the time.

“Today’s weather is really nice! The sky is clear and the temperature is not high because it is not summer yet. It is very comfortable to ride a bike.

Today I plan to ride 200 kilometers. The specific camping place has not been decided yet because it is a rare trip to Dunhuang.

So the Yumen Pass ruins are naturally not to be missed, and by the way, there is also the Yadan Ghost City." Qin Yuan said as he rode towards Yumen Pass.

While riding, Qin Yuan looked at the camera and explained seriously: "I believe everyone is very familiar with Yumen Pass, right?

After all, this place has been mentioned many times in our textbooks since childhood, and there are countless poems about Yumen Pass.

Like the "Two Songs of Liangzhou, One" by Wang Zhihuan, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.

The Yellow River is far above the white clouds,
A piece of lonely city Wanren Mountain.

Why should Qiang Di blame the willows,
The spring breeze never stops Yumen Pass.

I believe everyone has memorized this ancient poem by heart, right?
In addition, there is "Marching to the Army" by Wang Changling, a frontier poet of the Tang Dynasty.

The long clouds and dark snow-capped mountains in Qinghai,
Gucheng looks at Yumen Pass in the distance.

Huangsha wears golden armor in battles,
If you don't break Loulan, you won't return it.

Each of these poems is a classic among classics. Anyone who has studied in Longguo has memorized them, so I will not list them one by one.

As the saying goes, reading books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Now that I have come to Dunhuang, the Yumen Pass Ruins must not be missed.

In my opinion, this site is far more worth visiting than those scenic spots, because it is not just a simple scenic spot.
It is also the carrier of our Dragon Country culture, and its historical and cultural value is priceless.”

It is about 93 kilometers from Qin Yuan's current location to Yumen Pass, which is not a short distance. However, with Qin Yuan's cycling speed, he arrived safely after 3 hours, which can be said to be quite fast.

"Everyone, the yellow earthen building that appears in front of the camera is the Yumen Pass that we often see in various poems.

Yumen Pass is one of the passes of the ancient Han Great Wall. It was first built when Emperor Wu of Han opened the road to the Western Regions and established the four Hexi counties.

Moreover, Yumen Pass was the border pass of many dynasties after the Han Dynasty, and many poems describing border passes will mention Yumen Pass.

The "Two Songs of Liangzhou, No. 1" and "Song of the Army" that I mentioned earlier are good representatives.

To be honest, the scenery of this place is not very good, it is even very desolate and vast, and it is not a good tourist attraction.

But as I said before, we don’t come here to see the scenery, but to feel the historical and cultural atmosphere here.

After all, so many historical and cultural celebrities have written poems and articles for it, and it would be nice for us, the descendants, to come and admire it and take in its aura.”

Qin Yuan was taking pictures around Yumen Pass very seriously with his sports camera, while sharing the information he had learned.

Walking on the vast land, looking at the weathered pass walls, touching the dilapidated rammed earth walls.

Qin Yuan felt as if he had traveled through time and space to the Han Dynasty.

He saw troops in military uniforms marching through the Yumen Pass to the Western Regions for war, and he also saw camel caravans carrying loads of goods traveling to the Central Plains for trade.

The pass, which is deserted and desolate now, was bustling with people in that era. It has to be said that things and people are no longer the same.

After walking around Yumen Pass, Qin Yuan was filled with emotion. He had a lot to say, but in the end he didn't know how to say it.

Complex emotions settled in his heart, and eventually turned into notes that sounded in his mind.

In just a moment, a magnificent melody appeared in his mind, and at the same time, an ancient poem also appeared.

The name of this ancient poem is "Guanxianyue", and the melody that sounded in his mind was based on this ancient poem.

"Guanxianyue" is a five-character ancient poem written by Li Bai, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, borrowing an old Yuefu theme.

This poem describes the longing between soldiers guarding the border far away from home and their wives at home, and deeply reflects the suffering that war brings to the general public.

The whole poem is divided into three layers. The first four sentences mainly describe the vast frontier scenery including the three elements of pass, mountain and moon, thus expressing the soldiers' homesickness.

The four middle sentences describe the war scenes in detail and the tragic and cruel battlefield.

The last four lines describe the soldier missing his hometown while looking at the border, and then he imagines his wife sighing in the high tower on a moonlit night.

This poem is like a long scroll of a frontier scene consisting of three parts: the bright moon over the mountains, the sorrow on the battlefield, and the soldiers' longing for home.

The poem is full of resentment, with a unified tone and a seamless whole. The poem is majestic and has a natural style. Needless to say, it is excellent.

After all, this was written by the immortal poet Li Bai, but there is no such extraordinary person as Li Bai in this world.

Therefore, the ancient poem "Guanxianyue" naturally did not appear.

If the ancient poem "Guanxianyue" does not exist, then the Long Guofeng pure music "Guanxianyue" created based on it in later generations will not exist either.

Yes, the melody that sounded in Qin Yuan’s mind was exactly "Guanshan Yue" composed by a musician named Lu Nan in his previous life.

In Qin Yuan's opinion, both Li Bai's five-character ancient poem "Guanshan Yue" and the song "Guanshan Yue" are excellent works.

Now that he had come to Yumen Pass today, he felt it would be unjustifiable if he didn't leave something behind.

As soon as he thought of this, his eyes immediately stopped on a huge rock in front of Yumen Pass.

There is nothing special about this rock. It is just an ordinary rock in front of Yumen Pass.

There were countless rocks present, at least a dozen or so, if not dozens. It was just that the rock Qin Yuan chose was right in front of Yumen Pass, so everyone passing by could see it.

So, Qin Yuan immediately had an idea in his mind, so he walked to the rock and picked up a sharp stone from the ground.

Then he took the action camera in one hand to shoot, and took the sharp stone in the other hand to write on the rock in a flamboyant manner.

“Coming to Yumen Pass made me feel like I had traveled back to ancient times. Seeing that our ancestors wrote so many popular ancient poems about it, I couldn’t help but feel touched.

So I'll leave a poem here! It's just a work of interest, you can just enjoy it, the poem is called "Guanshan Yue".

The bright moon rises from the Tianshan Mountains, among the vast sea of ​​clouds.

The wind blows for tens of thousands of miles, passing through Yumen Pass. The Han army goes down the Baideng Road, and the Hu army peeks into the Qinghai Bay.

Originated from the battlefield, no one returned.

The garrisonmen looked at the border towns with sad faces as they thought about returning home.

The tall building is like this night, sighing is not enough. "

While Qin Yuan was reciting, he was carving words on the rock with a stone. It would be impossible for an ordinary person to do this.

However, because Qin Yuan has a physical value of 80 points, his strength can be described as monstrous.

In this way, it became easy for him to write on the rock.

In less than five minutes, he left the five-character ancient poem "Guanxianyue" on the rock.

At the end of the ancient poem, Qin Yuan thought about it and decided not to leave his own name, but instead wrote the two words "Taibai".

Taibai refers to Li Bai, because Li Bai's courtesy name is Taibai and his alias is Qinglian Jushi, so there is nothing wrong with him writing Taibai.

In fact, he could have just written his own name, but he didn't do so because this was his usual style.

From the moment he wrote "Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng", he deliberately left the original authors' names in this world and did not snatch their credit.

The reason for this is that he just wants to maintain a little bit of his bottom line.

After finishing writing "Guanshan Yue", Qin Yuan introduced it to the camera very seriously.

"This poem depicts the scenery of the frontier, the plight of the soldiers, and further turns to the pain of the soldiers and their wives missing each other.

The descriptions at the beginning are all to embellish and pave the way for the following parts, and focus on the emotions aroused by looking at the moon.

The first four sentences can be said to be a vast picture of the frontier that includes the three elements of pass, mountain and moon.

The bright moon rises over the Tianshan Mountains. This is said from the perspective of a soldier.

The soldiers were stationed to the west of the Tianshan Mountains. When they looked back to the east, they saw the bright moon rising from the Tianshan Mountains.

Although the Tianshan Mountains are not near the sea, there is a sea of ​​clouds stretching across the mountains.

I combined the vast scenery of clouds and moon with the majestic Tianshan Mountains, which looks fresh and spectacular.

The next line, "The wind blows for thousands of miles, passing through Yumen Pass," has a wider scope than the previous two lines.

These two sentences are still spoken from the perspective of the soldiers, who are on the northwestern frontier, standing under the moonlight and gazing at their homeland.

But I felt a strong wind, as if it was sweeping across tens of thousands of miles of Central Plains territory and crossing the Yumen Pass.

In this way, together with the above description, it forms a picture of the vast frontier with the long wind, bright moon, Tianshan Mountains and Yumen Pass as the characteristics.

On the surface, it seems that this is just a description of the natural scene, but if you put yourself in the soldier's shoes, you will realize that this is what the soldier sees when he looks east.

It is easy to feel the feeling of nostalgia for home.

The Han army marched down the Baideng Road, and the Hu people peeped into the Qinghai Bay. From the battlefield, no one ever returned.

This is a scene of war superimposed on the vast natural scenery of the frontier in the first four sentences.

Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, was besieged by the Huns on Mount Baideng for seven days, while the Qinghai Bay area was where the Tang army and Tubo fought for years.

This endless war throughout the ages has meant that it is almost impossible to see any soldiers returning home alive.

These four sentences serve as a link between the preceding and the following in structure, as the objects of description transition from the frontier to the war, and from the war to the soldiers on the frontier.

Qin Yuan was filming and explaining very seriously. Of course, all the information he knew now was naturally learned from the Internet.

After finishing writing "Guanshan Yue", Qin Yuan did not leave immediately. Instead, he sat down under the rock. Then he sat cross-legged and took out a bamboo flute from his backpack.

Then, he began to play solemnly towards the camera, and all of a sudden, a majestic melody full of historical vicissitudes sounded, and this song was none other than "Guanshan Yue"!
The reason why this song is named "Guanshan Yue" is because it was created based on the ancient poem "Guanshan Yue".

In the previous life, "Guanshan Yue" was a Chinese style pure music song, which was carefully composed by musician Lu Nan.

This song is not only a heartfelt tribute to the ancient Yuefu "Guanxianyue", but also a heartfelt interpretation of our country's profound historical culture and national spirit.

This song has won the love and praise of the audience with its unique artistic charm and profound cultural connotation.

The original tune of "Guanshan Yue" is a piece of Yuefu music from the Han Dynasty, belonging to the category of "Drum and Horn Horizontal Blowing Music", which is often played and sung by soldiers guarding the border on horseback.

In the previous life, this piece of work was played with the flute as the main instrument.

Through the melodious and profound sound of the flute, a series of majestic and magnificent frontier scenes are presented to the audience.

The arrangement of the whole song is exquisite and layered, the melody is ups and downs, and the emotions are deep and rich.

It not only depicts the scenery of the frontier, but also has a profound expression of themes such as war, courage and unity.

Such a song can be said to be a perfect match for the ancient poem "Guanxianyue", as if it was tailor-made for it.

However, unlike his previous life, Qin Yuan did not copy it verbatim this time.

Instead, he combined his actual situation and played it using a bamboo flute.

The original piece of music begins with a flute solo, the sound of the flute is melodious and profound.

Like an ancient call from the horizon, it brings the listeners into that vast frontier land.

As the music progresses, instruments such as drums and flutes are gradually added, creating a tragic and desolate atmosphere.

After the music enters the main part, the melody begins to become ups and downs.

The sounds of flutes, pipes, drums and other instruments interweave together, as if depicting pictures of frontier soldiers bravely resisting the enemy and fighting bloody battles.

The music in this part has a brisk and powerful rhythm, full of fighting spirit and the spirit of moving forward courageously.

As the music deepens, emotions gradually become more profound.

There are many flute solos in the music, each of which is like a deep longing for home and an infinite desire for peace.

The melody of this part of the music is beautiful and moving, and the emotions are sincere and deep, allowing the audience to feel the emotional fluctuations deep in the author's heart while enjoying the music.

However, what was said above is all about the feeling of the original version, but at this moment Qin Yuan only used a bamboo flute to play it, which naturally gave people a completely different feeling.
