Chapter 056

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

Under the altar, twelve musicians who had been prepared long ago rang the bells.

Rows of chime bells, consisting of oblate bells of different sizes arranged in order of pitch, are hung on a huge bell stand. The musicians use T-shaped wooden hammers and long sticks to strike the bells respectively, which can produce different sounds.

of music.

The sound of the chimes is crisp, bright, melodious and melodious!

At this moment, the sound produced by the musicians striking the chimes is particularly pure and elegant, and full of solemnity.

After the chimes are played, all the timbres of the nearby drums, zithers, fou, zither and other different musical instruments are completely blended together!

This is an ancient kind of music!

Immediately, a group of graceful singers began to sing along with the music.

What they sang in their beautiful voices was a tune with harmonious rhythm and full of chilling air!

War song!

"I am wearing iron armor and carrying a long sword. I am going to fight with you. The road is long!"

"We share the same hatred of the enemy, and we share life and death. We fight with you, and our hearts are not slack!"

"Bring Wu Gou to you, you will be the leader of all the robes. Go to war with your son, and you will not grow old!"

"Traveling across the wasteland, chasing the enemy bandits. Fighting with my son, singing fearlessly!"

When they heard the song sung by the singers, everyone present was shocked and stunned.

Including Shimimo, all the envoys from various countries could not help but be stunned!

After finishing the song, Shimimo couldn't help but pull the sleeve of Ji Zha beside him and asked in a low voice: "Ji Zi, is this a Wu Feng poem written by you?"

In the eyes of Shimimo and others, throughout the entire Wu Kingdom, the only person who could write such a majestic poem without losing its rhythm was Jizha!

Because he is proficient in music, he is a great sage and a most virtuous person in the world.

In the early years, the State of Wu sent Ji Zha as an envoy to the State of Lu.

When he arrived in the state of Lu, Jizha heard the magnificent music of Zhou Dynasty!

Then, with his profound sensitivity and outstanding insight, he analyzed the profound implications of the teachings of ritual and music, as well as the rise and fall of the Zhou Dynasty. His words shocked everyone and made everyone pay attention.

Hearing "Tang", Jizha heard the legacy of Tao Tang family that has been remembered for thousands of years!

When he heard "Daya", he heard the virtue of King Wen in the profound and broad spirit of the music!

When the song "Wei" is heard everywhere, the ambition of the leader of the alliance of "big and broad, frugal and easy" reflects the teaching of literature and morality supplemented by virtue.

Until the dance of "Zhao Feng" started, Jizha exclaimed: This is the most breathtaking and virtuous movement, just like the sky covers everything and the earth carries everything.

Even if you are extremely virtuous, there is nothing more you can do!

"This is not a poem written by me."

Dazai Jizha smiled slightly, stroking his beard and said: "This poem is called "War with the Son". It was written by my king and arranged by me. Now my king has made it clear that this poem should become the war song of our Wu army and be passed down from generation to generation.

"

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Shimimo and other envoys from other countries couldn't help but take a breath and were shocked.

Unexpectedly, Qing Ji, who is known as the number one warrior in the Wu Kingdom and is the best in the world in terms of bravery, actually has such talent?

This poem, which is full of chilling atmosphere, coupled with the majestic and soul-stirring music score, is simply a match made in heaven!

Moreover, along with it, a total of ninety-nine Wu army warriors wearing crimson uniforms and armor stood under the altar.

Following the melody of this war song, they danced, chopping hands, punching, sinking, or striding... Every movement looked rough and powerful, but it was not an alternative kind of beauty.

Very masculine beauty!

This kind of dance is different from those danced by beautiful dancers, but it looks unique.

The song is over.

"good!"

"color!"

Everyone who was watching the ceremony couldn't help but clapped their hands and praised him profusely.

"These Wu songs, these Wu dances, these Wu tunes are truly unique in the world!"

"It's really a worthwhile trip!"

"Cai! What a poem, wearing iron armor, carrying a long sword, fighting against the same enemy, sharing life and death! It's really refreshing!"

"There are Bei Feng, Quan Feng, Wei Feng, Zheng Feng, Qi Feng, etc. in the world. Why not see the poems of Wu Feng?"

"Hahahaha! Confucius should copy this poem into the Three Hundred Poems and compile it into Wu Feng!"

Everyone was talking about it, and they all felt that this poem written by Wu people was quite excellent and should be included in the "Three Hundred Miles of Poems" to be praised by future generations.

The so-called "Three Hundred Poems" is the "Book of Songs" that was revered as a Confucian classic by successive feudal dynasties since the Han Dynasty and was indispensable for imperial examinations!

As the originator of "Zheng Zheng", Qingji naturally believed that this poem was qualified to be selected into the "Book of Songs"!

The influence of the Book of Songs is undoubted.

The Book of Songs is divided into three parts: "Wind", "Ya" and "Song".

"Wind" is a ballad from various places in the Zhou Dynasty;

"Ya" is the formal song of the Zhou people, and is divided into "Xiaoya" and "Daya";

"Song" is a song for worship in the royal court of Zhou and the aristocratic temples, and is divided into "Song of Zhou", "Song of Lu" and "Song of Shang"!

It is said that the Book of Songs was collected by Yin Jun Yin Jifu and later compiled by Confucius. This is the earliest poetry collection in China.

Each of the vassal states entrusted by the Zhou royal family has its own folk song, which is "Wind"!

Zheng has "Zheng Feng", Qi has "Qi Feng", Wei has "Wei Feng", Qin has "Qin Feng", and even some small countries that have disappeared have their own "wind".

The remote country of Wu also has its own folk songs, including "Wu Feng". However, it was not selected among the 300 "Poems" written by Confucius, and was later lost!

Now, the song "Wu Feng·Zheng Zheng" written by Qing Ji may not be able to attract the attention of Master Confucius.

The song is over.

The musicians and singers under the altar sang "Daya" and "Zhou Song" respectively!

"In the Muqing Temple, Su Yong appeared. He helped many scholars and upheld the virtues of literature."

"The more you are in the sky, the horses are galloping in the temple. If you don't show off or show your respect, you won't shoot at others..."

Qingji was very helpless.

Is this my crowning ceremony, or is it a Spring and Autumn version of a concert?

Even so, Qing Ji had to keep his composure and patiently "appreciate" it.

Finally, with the sound of horns, all the dance music stopped!

Instead, a bonfire was lit under the altar, and then a large group of wizards dressed in strange clothes and chanting something.

The wizards danced around the bonfire, shaking the snare drums, bells and other unknown musical instruments in their hands from time to time, and began to dance to the gods!

Qingji had no idea what they were talking about.
