When the painting was completed, a song was also formed in Xu Guangling's mind, and the theme was Jiangnan.
Xu Guangling had this idea before, writing a set of songs about Jiangnan.
But at that time, he was too far away from "Jiangnan".
During the previous trip of thousands of miles southward and the subsequent trip northward, Xu Guangling saw a lot and felt a lot along the way. At this time, taking advantage of the content in the painting as an opportunity, the song naturally formed.
Jiangnan.
Many people have written about Jiangnan, from ancient times to modern times.
Zheng Chouyu wrote "Mistake", "I traveled to Jiangnan", Jiangnan is the background, and lovesickness is the theme.
JJ Lin sang "Jiangnan", "The wind sticks here, clinging to the thoughts of passers-by." Similarly, Jiangnan is just the background, love and fate are the themes.
This poem "Jiangnan" by Xu Guangling does not involve any love, hate or resentment in the world, but only uses the perspective of a quasi-grandmaster to see this natural landscape, which is full of vitality.
The wind is Jiangnan, the rain is Jiangnan, the water is Jiangnan, the moon is Jiangnan, the swallows are Jiangnan, and the willows are Jiangnan. Everything happens in Jiangnan and is performed in Jiangnan.
Here is "the color of grass looks distant but not close", here is "the spring breeze in February is like scissors", here is "the wild flowers are gradually charming the eyes", here is "the blue mountains and flowers are about to burn".
This is the south of the Yangtze River where grass grows and orioles fly.
This is the colorful Jiangnan.
Spring comes and goes.
In March, the remaining flowers have fallen and bloomed more, and swallows are flying from the small eaves every day. Zigui is still crying for blood in the middle of the night, and he doesn't believe that the east wind can't call him back.
The beauty of April in the human world is gone, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temples are beginning to bloom. I have always regretted that I can’t find a place to return to spring, and I don’t know where to turn.
The festival of things encourages each to make a new start, and the infatuated children keep the spring alive. Why regret that the beauty is gone? The summer trees are so gloomy and pleasant.
These are three attitudes towards Spring Return.
Feeling sad.
A unique surprise.
Comply with the open-mindedness of natural creation.
When the music reaches this point, it also enters a stage of rendering and cadenza.
The sadness is expressed in the song, which is exciting, inquiring, and a little sad or even tragic. The surprise is expressed in the song, which is sonorous, but it is also like a lotus boat sailing on the water, which is relaxed and swaying. Lively.
The open-mindedness is reflected in the music, which is as natural as the wind blowing across the earth, and then the whole music comes to a conclusion in this natural atmosphere.
This is a tune.
Then comes the words.
Comparing music and lyrics, Xu Guangling is good at music but not at lyrics.
This may also be because he has a lot of contact with music, whether it is composing or arranging music. As for writing lyrics, he has only rarely written lyrics since he was a child.
But in fact, as long as the music is in place, the lyrics don’t have to be great, they just need to be suitable.
This is also the advantage that the lyrics and music are written by the same creator. Xu Guangling knows exactly what he wants to express. And when the expression of the music is already in place, he only needs to "do his part" in filling in the lyrics. "Just describe it truthfully."
Jiangnan willows, the spring breeze blows.
It is as unmoving as the earth, but uses the soft rod as a hanging hook.
Jiangnan swallow is busy building nests.
Flying alone among the reeds, lightly sipping water, flying together in front of the hall, murmuring.
…
Twelve paragraphs, twelve kinds of Jiangnan scenery, and the arrangement of these twelve kinds of scenery constitutes the entire "Jiangnan" image that Xu Guangling wants to express. At this point, the song is completed.
Xu Guangling first wrote "Jiangnan", and then added the word "spring" at the end.
"Jiangnan Spring".
The name of this song.
After finding a recording studio and finishing the accompaniment, Xu Guangling sent the lyrics and music to Zhou Lanlan along with the previous painting.
Read books, play seal cutting, draw, and write songs.
This is Xu Guangling's "adjustment".
Adjustment is rest and recuperation. For example, after a big battle, you retreat to recharge your batteries, adjust your body and mind to the best state, and wait for another battle.
During the days of adjustment, Xu Guangling no longer used the fundamental method.
But he still practiced Fuxi Jue every day.
Xu Guangling's schedule is usually that in the afternoon, after dinner, he will leave the research institute and take a walk to Changbai Mountain, which is dozens of miles away.
Then, I climbed the mountain from different locations every day.
The altitude of Changbai Mountain is not high, the highest is only two or three thousand meters, but the area is very large, large enough for Xu Guangling to explore.
This is because he has clairvoyance.
An average person would probably be unable to explore this mountain range, including the surrounding smaller mountains, in a lifetime.
Under the exploration of Tianyan, the detailed topography and landforms of Changbai Mountain, including the growth of plants and medicinal plants that are the focus of attention, were added bit by bit into the "Map of Changbai Mountain" in Xu Guangling's mind.
This is actually also one of adjustment.
"If there is a man who comes to the mountains, he is wearing a cloak of grass and a girl's radish."
Xu Guangling is like a male mountain ghost, walking among the mountains and jungles. But in the severe cold season in the north, there are neither scallions nor daffodils in the mountains. There are only pines and birches that resist frost and snow, as well as the frost, and snow.
.
The plain snow is three feet thick and covers Yaotai for thousands of miles.
In fact, the Spring Festival has passed, which means that winter has passed and spring has come, and it is time for the flowers to slowly bloom.
But just yesterday, it snowed heavily all night in this area. Today, as an occasional weather reporter, Station Manager Xu told Xu Guangling that the lowest temperature today was minus 33 degrees.
This means on the ground!
As for the top of Changbai Mountain, it was probably between 40 degrees below zero and 50 degrees below zero.
Such weather in Changbai Mountain is naturally the image of Liu Zongyuan's "Snow on the River". Even the most lively and active squirrels huddled together in their nests to keep warm.
Xu Guangling was worried about the small tree.
He went to visit it as soon as he went up the mountain. But actually, he wasn't very worried.
As expected, although Xiaoshu was bullied by Xue Xiao because he could not move, apart from being slightly embarrassed physically, he was still energetic mentally.
Xu Guangling carefully removed the snow from it, but only on the branches, while the snow at the roots remained.
Then, he used the energy of vegetation and the energy of the earth and mountains to give it a meal. He was still a little afraid of it being frozen, so this was a comfort.
Then, Xu Guangling himself absorbed the energy of vegetation.
In the harsh winter, the air of vegetation was too thin, and Xu Guangling did not absorb it too much. This thin mist was probably very important to the plants here.
If he absorbs it too much, there may be news next year.
"Shocking! Large areas of the cold-resistant pine forest in Changbai Mountain have died! What kind of changes and mysteries are hidden behind all this?"
So Xu Guangling just walked through the mountains, collecting the scattered mist here and there.
And when he wandered from evening to evening or late at night, wandering from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, he had almost absorbed the energy of the vegetation.
Then go down to Tianchi and absorb the energy of the earth, mountains and rivers at the bottom of Tianchi.
After the right heart orifice was opened, Xu Guangling absorbed these two kinds of mist, both through this place.
The feeling is very different from before.
It is absorbed through the right heart aperture. After the mist passes through the right hand aperture, it seems to have been transformed, and its nature may have changed in some way.
But Xu Guangling is not very sure about this.
All he could feel was that under the influence of these two mists, the energy and blood in his body became increasingly dense.
At the beginning, when Xu Guangling was single-clothed or even naked in the severe cold, he could only say that he was not cold, but now, what he felt was a sense of warmth all over his body.
This is why, even though it’s winter and it’s the North, Xu Guangling’s song is about spring, Jiangnan.——
After his right heart orifice was opened, his body and mind were in the midst of spring, when the earth was thawing and the grass was growing and the orioles were flying.
