Chapter 3 When joy sees pity, the coffin is opened for Lennon

For two days, I couldn't write anything. "Hua Shan Ji" entangled all my emotions.It is very simple Yuefu in the Southern Dynasties, but I like it inexplicably.Maybe this is liked precisely because of its simplicity. Hua Shanji, since the king died for Nong, who will live alone for?When Huanruo sees pity, the coffin is opened for Lennon. "Ancient and Modern Music Records" said: "The person in Huashanji, when Emperor Shaodi of the Song Dynasty, a scholar from Nanxu went from Huashanji to Yunyang, and saw the woman in the guest house. He was delighted and died of a heart attack. When he was buried, he was transported from Huashan. At the girl's gate, the cow refused to come forward. The girl came out and sang: "Hua Shanji, since the king died for you, who will you live alone for? When Huan Ruo saw pity, the coffin was opened for you. The coffin opened at the sound, and the woman entered the coffin. It was buried together, named Goddess Tomb. Since then, there has been a song "Hua Shan Ji."

This poem is the first of the twenty-five chapters in "Hua Shan Ji".It is said that during the time of Song Shaodi in the Southern Dynasty, a scholar from Nanxu (now Zhenjiang) traveled from Huashanji (now Dantu) to Yunyang (now Danyang), and met a woman by chance, liked him very much, and fell in love with him ever since.The saying in the book is "If you are happy without a reason, you will feel sick."The scholar finally died of a lingering illness, and his last words were to be buried next to Mount Hua, where he first met the woman.So the plain cart and white horse meandered, and when they arrived at the foot of the mountain, suddenly the ox pulling the cart refused to leave, and it was the woman's home.When the woman came out and saw the coffin of the scholar, she was not sad or shocked, and said calmly, wait a minute.Then go back to the house, wash and bathe, dress up and sing this Que song.The coffin opened in response to the sound, and the woman jumped in and never came out again.

This story is actually the earliest version of Liang Zhu. It is very simple but vivid.What I like the most is the calmness of the woman dressed up and taking a bath. She knows that he is dead and died for herself, and all kinds of mourning are useless.Just a song: You were buried at the foot of Mount Hua, you died for me, why am I living alone?If you pity my situation, please open the coffin for me, and let me go with you. There are thousands of love flowers in the world, and there is one called life and death.If you sacrifice your life for me, I will pay you back with my life.One pay, one repayment, no reluctance.There is a lot of chivalry.This kind of calmness means that life and death have been put aside, in memory, only the little dragon girl who came out of the Chongyang ancient tomb has this demeanor.It is written in the book that Yang Guo encountered a strong enemy in the Valley of Unfeeling, and his life was dying, but Xiaolongnv looked calm.It’s not because of lack of affection, on the contrary, it’s because of her composure after being too affectionate—”When the little dragon girl saw the owner of the valley taking out the fishing net with the hook, she had already thought of the word “death” in her heart, and as soon as Yang Guo was caught by the fishing net, she would die. She threw herself on the fishing net and hugged him to death. When she thought of this, her heart felt calm, and she felt that all the sorrows in the world were gone, and she couldn't help but smile." At this moment, I suddenly remembered the smile on Xiao Longnu's mouth It just fits the deep meaning of the word "Huan".He was her lover, her sweetheart, and she was happy to do anything with him, even death.This stroke, perhaps even Jin Yong himself did not write it deliberately.

Xiao Longnu's attitude towards emotions is closer to Zen.The strongest one may be that indifference.It's a pity that this Shu is not a real person, but a fiction written by literati.But what does that matter?The gap between words and legends is nothing more than one in the mouth and the other in the hand.The Huashan woman and the little dragon girl are people who stay in the literal sense. Maybe there is no such person at all, and there is no need for such a person. The story is a reflection of the real world, and what is passed down to future generations is just a wish.People hope to see a more beautiful and pure spiritual illusion that is beyond all rules.

The unreality of a mirage does not prevent its beauty from being praised by the world. The Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties were an era of division. The Southern Dynasties had a soft texture and a long lifespan. Its temperament was very similar to a butterfly in spring. It had a strong, clean and bright side, and was more tender and charming.Its cultural vane, those folk songs spread in the south of the Yangtze River, are also like this.Even literati mostly imitate folk songs and do Yuefu, prefer to write lyrical poems, and rarely hear generous and sad voices.The north and the south have their own Yuefu poems, and the south mainly has Qing and Shang operas, most of which are preserved in "Yuefu Poems·Qing and Shang operas" compiled by Guo Maoqian in Song Dynasty.There are eight volumes of poems.Among the folk songs of the Southern Dynasties, Wusheng songs and Xiqu songs are the most important. "Book of Jin Le Zhi" says: "Miscellaneous songs of Wu songs came out of the south of the Yangtze River. The Eastern Jin Dynasty has come, and it has been slightly expanded. At the beginning, they were all pure songs, and then they were orchestrated. After crossing the river in Yongjia, they went down to Liang, Chen, Xiandu Jianye, Wu Sheng's songs originated here." There are 326 Wu songs and 142 Western songs. "Hua Shan Ji" is as important and well-known among Wu Sheng's tunes as "Midnight Song".Mr. Zheng Zhenduo once said: Among the Yuefu poems and Wu songs, "Among them, "Hua Shan Ji" is the most important."

"Hua Shan Ji" is the sound change of "Rein Nong Song".Huan Nong, Huan Nong, this song makes people feel swayed before it is sung, like a woman's coquettishness in the ear, a little melancholy of Xizi holding her heart.Wu Shengnong's language, for many years, has been a curse in the hearts of literati, and they dare not easily move the strings.Songs from the Southern Dynasties in Yuefu also have the same charm.They come from the land of passion, with the true nature of passion, even if it is just a farm girl, she will be able to pull out the bushes with the king at the same time as the king.There are also tactful and lingering things that later generations of literati have painstakingly tried to achieve.

All things, when they first appear and develop, have an innocent and generous appearance, because they are newborns, fearless and fearless, I am a pure self, a free self, a lotus flower in the lotus pond, without disturbance and entanglement.The lyrics of the Qing and Shang dynasties are entangled in emotion and short in structure. Most of them are five characters.However, its innocence and grandeur are difficult for future generations to deliberately achieve.Anyone can sing and learn.Li Bai, Liu Yuxi and others absorbed nutrition from the folk songs of the Six Dynasties to find fragrance, and immediately came out with the fragrance of flowers and felt fresh on the face.However, the Yuan operas are big and deep, but it is difficult for future generations to learn the essence from them.There is no motivation and development space for continuation, so after the Qing Dynasty, it was quickly annihilated.The same is Qu, it already has strict forms and restrictions, like a person who has been educated and knows how to behave. Of course, his behavior is stable and he will not make mistakes.

When "Hua Shan Ji" writes about the pain of love, it often has strong emotions and novel ideas.I remember that the seventh chapter is also very short: "Crying at the dawn, tears will float on the pillow, and the body will sink and flow away. It means, I cry until dawn. The tears can make the pillow float, and the body will be washed away by the tears." Tears fall into the pen, writing about being sad because of love, the technique is extremely exaggerated, but because of the sincerity of the feelings, it does not make people feel absurd.What's more, the song said: "Send Lao Laozhu to each other. The Yangtze River should not be full, it is the tears of Nong." The Yangtze River is also full of tears.So affectionate only for you.

In fact, I can’t complain that the men of the world have been fascinated by the women of Wudi in the south of the Yangtze River for thousands of years. They are like Nanxu’s scholars flying moths into the flames to win the hearts of strange women. Lou Xinyue, singing the wind of peach blossom fans.As long as they are willing to work hard for a man, they will be flattered and inseparable if they show their affectionate scenery in their hearts and show their affection.This kind of person is like a flower blooming in spring, and the bright light shines brightly. It is hard to love and hard to put down.This kind of talent is history and talent, not all known.

In terms of songs, "Hua Shan Ji" records that there are not only Hua Shan women who are infatuated.The songs are also complicated and varied, and some people can't explain themselves when they are in love.There is no limit to the people in the world, but only for you. There was a long night of lovesickness and suspicion, and the song said: "Night lovesickness, the wind blows the curtains, and the words are welcome." There is one who cries all night long, using a rooster as a metaphor, and the song goes: "The rooster crows forever, who knows that Nong misses you, and crows alone in the sky."

I saw some people admire: these few poems, the sentences are very short, and they burst out of the air without warning.Like broken chapters, the short ones seem to be a few sentences cut out of a long poem, and the first and last sentences have been lost.But after savoring carefully, I feel that these few sentences are enough, or the lingering rhyme is long and the meaning is beyond the words, or the sound is like cracking silk, and the tone is sonorous.Folk songs are often like this. They are seldom carefully crafted, but they are like pure gold and plain jade, with their own natural beauty. Because they express their hearts directly and speak from the heart, they have a special charm compared with finely crafted literati poems. From the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the present, there have been thousands of years in between. However, some feelings have never changed. What is the essential difference between today's women and those women who have sleepless nights and tears wet their pillows? "There is no limit to the people in the world, I am only for you", how many people have looked up to the sky and sighed at the emptiness of their minds. In the momentary trance when the wind blows the curtains, in the half-dream and half-awake state, who has not experienced such doubts, surprises, and disappointments.Who has never hoped to have a relationship, looking forward to love and stay together day and night for a long time? ——Soul and soul, moment and moment, seamlessly.You tell me, the past and the present, everything, what's the difference?Poetry is like a mirror, what we see is our own face. There is another song in "Hua Shan Ji", and I remember it very clearly: I am so upset, I go to bed and untie the rope, and pass through the screen.It is cowardly and ignorant to feel heartbroken for a man's unfeeling, so sad that he wants to hang himself.However, a woman's heart is like water, and her affection is endless.Most women believe in forever and are willing to stick to love with their lives.A woman's idiot is so idiotic that she is willing to risk her life to stick to love.From ancient times to the present, there are many stories of women being buried for love. The earliest ones are about Yu Shun's two concubines, Ehuang and Nvying, who drowned Xiaoxiang to death with tears in their eyes. into Liang Shanbo's tomb.not come out again. I don't intend to comment on such a story, everyone has everyone's understanding.I just often think that if Ehuang and Nvying die first, Shun will definitely not die with their own bodies. Shun's world cannot be separated from Shun, and Shun's world cannot be separated from Shun's world.As for Zhu Yingtai's death first, whether Liang Shanbo will cry until the tomb is opened is also a question mark. A man can only be involuntarily longing for the love that is beyond his reach, and even die in depression, just like Liang Shanbo, but he cannot give his life for the love he has already obtained.Men have responsibilities that are heavier than Mount Tai, and these responsibilities do not allow them to be buried for love.So smart women can sing and shed tears for love, but don't be so stupid as to stick to love with your life, if you let it go, you may live a better life.Without life, where does love take root? The love story of "Hua Shan Ji" has two kinds of legends: sad and happy.The other is a happy ending. According to the "Chengzhai Miscellaneous Notes·Hua Shanji" compiled by Lin Kun in the Yuan Dynasty, the story has probably not changed. Mother knew that, so she went to look for the girl near Mount Hua, and explained the situation when she found it. The girl was deeply moved by the scholar, and she secretly took off her knee cover and taught her to bring it back under the man's sleeping mat. There was a woman's clothes under the mat, so he burned the clothes and drank the ashes. Before long, he was dying, and ordered his mother to bury him near Huashan Mountain, and the mother obeyed her words.The car passed by the door of the woman's house, the woman came out to meet each other, sang and opened the coffin, threw herself in and hugged the scholar, the scholar was resurrected, the two families celebrated and held a wedding for them. I don't like this kind of ending, because it is too deliberate in pursuit of perfection, with wishful thinking to cover up the indifference of the world itself.I was very surprised, why the woman asked the scholar and mother to put the lower skirt (covering the knees) under the man's sleeping mat, instead of her mother telling her that she had agreed?Could it be that the woman cast a spell on her knees, and it wouldn't work if she said it?Why did the man insist on begging for death, burned his knees, burned them to ashes and drank them, and didn't get well obediently, trying to marry the girl back home?If there is any personnel blockage, there is no mention in the book.The details that are reluctantly added are contradictory to each other and cannot be justified.It is obvious that the literati later edited it to force perfection, but instead lost its poignant and captivating nature. Thankfully, all the people have not changed the four words "joy without cause", which is the soul of the story of "Hua Shan Ji"-do you need a reason to love someone? Huashan in the poem "Huashan Ji" does not refer to Huashan among the five mountains, but refers to Huashan in Jurong, Jiangsu.Nanxu is now Zhenjiang.At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, the north was chaotic, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty was on the left side of the Anjiang River, and the capital was established in Jianye (now Nanjing).At that time, people from the north went south one after another, and the Eastern Jin government set up Xuzhou for this reason, and the state government was in Jingkou (now Zhenjiang).In the Liu Song Dynasty of the Southern Dynasties, it was officially named Nanxuzhou, and Nanxu has been an alias for Zhenjiang ever since.Many materials show that the place where the Wu song "Hua Shan Ji" took place is Huashan Village, Shiqiao, Dantu.In ancient times, there was a Goddess Temple built on Huashan Mountain, Dantu Stone Bridge, which was called "Jade Girl Temple" by local people, but it has been destroyed. The infatuated men and women in "Hua Shan Ji" are unfortunate and happy. They jumped into the coffin and were buried together. The family also presided over the ghost marriage for the two.People only have pity, but no objection.It is said that in Huashan Village, Dantu Shiqiao, every spring, around Qingming Festival, young men and women come to the side of the jade girl pier to offer incense and burn paper, praying for a happy marriage, and the ancient tradition still exists. The love between men and women in Huashan is more like a Zen machine sprouting between the two.There is no expected beginning and no precise end.Fate arises and dies in one thought.And the later "Blessings of Love" gradually took on all kinds of human fireworks, such as acquaintance, marriage promise, reunion, rematch, life separation, and death reunion.The story began to follow the rules of secular human relations to constrain its evolution, becoming a sad love story, not love. Love is invisible, but there are love stories.Up to now, the local people in Dantu still refer to "Hua Shan Ji" as "Xiao Liang Zhu". Small does not refer to the length of the story, but can be understood as the meaning of taking shape. The Huashan woman's sad song reminds me of a legend about a bird that sings only once in its life, and its voice is more beautiful than any other creature in the world. From the moment it leaves the nest, it looks for Clinging to the thorns, he didn't rest until he got his wish.Then, thrusting itself into the longest and sharpest thorn, it sang among the savage branches. When Huanruo sees pity, the coffin is opened for Lennon.She sang, as desperately as the thorn-bird, and at the dying moment, transcended her pain, and eclipsed lark and nightingale in song.This is an incomparably beautiful song, and the end of the song is exhausted.Yet the whole world listens, and God smiles in the firmament, for the best things can only be bought with great pain and great pain. When Huanruo sees pity, the coffin is opened for Lennon. ——Singing that shakes the hearts of the world.
