The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 11 Musician [Please collect and recommend]

"Do you want to know what the Mo family thinks of you?"

Jing Ke, on the other hand, was very familiar with him and talked a lot. He continued to follow Yan Yan shamelessly and chattered endlessly.

"What evaluation?" Yan Yan was indeed a little curious about the evaluation of him by various schools of thought.

"The unlucky guy of the Confucian and Yan Schools!" Jing Ke replied with a smile, but then he said, "However, I don't think so. I'm very curious. You are respected as a senior brother by Yushan Academy, and you are rated as a scholar of mind. The teacher, the chief of Yue Jing."

"I don't understand this thing, and I can't understand it. But the leader of the Music Book, you must be very strong in music. So, you must be very good at singing and playing harp, right?"

Yan Yan looked at Jing Ke, "You really talk a lot. How do you want me to answer this?"

"I understand!" Yan Yan sighed. He was so talkative!
"How about you sing for me!" Jing Ke immediately became interested.

"..." Yan Yan was silent, looking at the scenery around him, but found that the sun was setting, and he suddenly felt like singing.

"Walking on the alternate path, the old cow returning at dusk is my companion, the blue sky with the setting sun on my chest, the colorful clouds are the clothes of the sunset..."

As Yan Yan let go of his singing voice, the entire convoy was stunned for a moment. This was very different from the four-character lyrics they often heard, and it seemed that they could better understand what was being sung a cappella. As the song came, they could see the scene in the song before their eyes.

The most important thing is that they find it very catchy, and after just a brief listen, they feel like they can hum a few lines.

This is what other songs they listen to cannot do.

Jing Ke was also stunned. He put the wine bottle to his mouth and let the wine slip from the corner of his mouth and soaked his clothes without reacting.

He didn't know how musicians divided their realms, but he knew that real music allowed people to be immersed in it and see the scenes and things that the musicians wanted to express in the songs.

He had banquets in many brothels and palaces, and listened to performances by many musicians, but there were very few people like Yan Yan who could immerse them in the scene just by singing a cappella!
"You don't want to sing?" Yan Yan stopped singing, took out a flute from the bag beside the bookcase, and started playing it gently.

Only then did Jing Ke realize that, listening to the sound of the flute, he was able to hum the song Yan Yan just sang in time with the sound of the flute.

The entire convoy also sang along softly to the sound of the flute, and then the sound became louder and louder. In the end, the entire convoy actually learned this simple song.

"Awesome!" After the song, Jing Ke gave a thumbs up, "I, Jing Ke, have traveled all over the country, and there are not many people I can admire. In the music industry, you are the one Jing Ke admires the most!"

"I come from the lineage of Confucian Yanzi. Isn't it normal for me to make achievements in the field of music?" Yan Yan smiled and said, "Don't do it six times!"
Yanzi was also famous for his music at that time. Confucius even commented that Yanzi's teaching of music theory to the people of Wucheng was a waste of time!

"It's different. I haven't read much, and I don't know how to say it. I don't understand the divisions of you scholars, but you seem to have created something new for musicians, but it is more acceptable. I don't believe you. Look around!" Jing Ke tried his best and didn't know how to describe it, so he could only point at the people around him.

Yan Yan looked around and found that everyone looked at him with great respect.A simple hum can teach anyone to sing. This ability is something that few even musicians can achieve.

But Yan Yan did it, and they had never heard this song before, but Yan Yan was willing to teach them. This meant that as long as they could sing this song, they must respect Yan Yan as master!
"It's just a trail!" Yan Yan smiled and waved his hand, not caring.

This is just a dimensionality reduction attack based on some superficial music theory of later generations and adding a new song rhythm.

If there were really music theory people to study it, we would be able to do it soon.

However, as the first person to create it, those who come after him must respect him as master. No matter how high their achievements are, they cannot surpass him!
However, in the eyes of others, this was a sign of superior demeanor and integrity, and they respected Yan Yan a little more.

"I didn't expect that I, Jing Ke, who is tone-deaf, would actually be able to sing one day!" Jing Ke hummed with a smile, full of pride.

"How about I teach you how to dance if you find some time?" Yan Yan said with a smile.

Music among the Six Arts of the Gentleman is not just about singing and playing music, but also includes dancing, so Yan Yan can dance too!
"Okay!" Jing Ke also smiled, feeling that he was good again!

He has met many Confucian scholars, but all of them are self-righteous and look down on everyone except themselves Confucians. There are almost no people who are willing to teach them and make friends with them!

Yan Yan smiled, maybe you don't know how scary dancing is!
The only way to help those who are tone-deaf is to make some tunes that ordinary people can master. The ones who suffer the most are the composers and lyrics, but if the limbs are not coordinated, dancing is really cruel to practice, and the ones who suffer the most are the ones who practice it. !

Yan Yan did not lie to Jing Ke, and he really taught Jing Ke the Six Music of the Six Arts of the Gentleman. Although he only taught "Yunmen Dajuan", Jing Ke gave up directly.

"This is your Confucian martial arts, I can't learn it!" Jing Ke looked at the Yunmen scroll dance that Yan Yan showed him, and said with an extremely solemn look.

"Are you afraid that you won't be able to learn it?" Yan Yan didn't take Jing Ke's words seriously. "Yunmen Dajuan" is one of the Confucian sacrificial dances and songs. It is said to be a sacrificial song and dance passed down from the Yellow Emperor's period. .

If this is Confucian martial arts, then there is basically no distinction between civil and martial arts among Confucian disciples.

"That's not true. This dance contains Confucian martial arts body skills, footwork and sound skills. I can't learn it!" Jing Ke shook his head decisively.

Although he didn't know which Confucian martial arts was contained in "Yunmen Dajuan", it was definitely Confucian martial arts.

"Do you really have martial arts?" Looking at Jing Ke's serious expression, Yan Yan also had some doubts.

Confucian martial arts is contained in the Fifteen Classics. He knows that, for example, "Spring and Autumn" contains the top Confucian swordsmanship, Weiyan Dayi and Spring and Autumn Swordsmanship.

But there is martial arts in Liule, which he doesn't know. If Liule is all martial arts, wouldn't it mean that Liule is the six Confucian body methods and martial arts?
"I'm not wrong. The reason why Confucians wear Confucian clothes is because Confucian martial arts focuses on footwork and body skills, so Confucian clothes can cover one's footwork and body skills, making it impossible for people to know and impossible to guard against! "Jing Ke carefully explained the martial arts stuff that Yan Yan didn't know.
