Li Shi sat quietly in the night, feeling that he should first get close to nature.
"Perhaps we should look at the mist of mountains and rivers and feel the natural interest. In the morning, we can pick up the purple air of the morning sun, and in the evening, we can pick up the mist of mountains and rivers. In normal times, the sun rises and the sun sets and we rest. When we are proud, we laugh wildly between heaven and earth."
However, he had another question in his heart: In this way, can the acquired dirt be washed away and the true self be revealed?
After sitting blankly for about ten minutes, Li Shi shook his head gently.
It is necessary to get close to nature, but he is not the famous people in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He is himself, a modern man who loves landscapes, but loves the world of mortals even more.
"All desires and distractions are myself, and the so-called 'dirt' is also a part of me, so there is no dirt at all, everything is my true self."
Li Shi laughed silently.
"For a dull and beautiful person like me, it is better to experience the beauty of a human body up close than to see mountains and rivers and mist!"
He stood up, went to the second bedroom to search around, and finally found his mobile phone on the ground in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He took it back to the living room, opened the browser, and searched for information on Chinese classical dance and body rhythm.
I searched around and watched some classical dance videos on several video platforms.
"There is a famous saying among those who learn classical dance, 'If there is no rhyme, the spirit will die; if there is little rhythm, there will be no style'."
"Shenyun refers to 'shenfa' and 'rhythm'. Shenfa is the external technique, and rhythm is the inner spirit."
"The four basic elements of classical dance: form, spirit, energy, and rhythm."
…
The more Li Shi learned about it, the more he realized that Chinese classical dance and calligraphy had many things in common.
He thought again of traditional Chinese painting and opera, as well as many arts derived from Chinese civilization.
"It seems that all pursuits are for the sake of both form and spirit, the harmony of skills and principles... Well, it is also the general philosophical outline of the unity of nature and man."
It's not that Li Shi Wenqing always goes in the philosophical direction when thinking about problems, but it is actually that his calligraphy has rapidly grown to this level. If he wants to go further, he must think about and understand these things.
In a word: This is where the strength ends.
"However, we cannot indulge in daydreams. We must ultimately realize it through creation."
"You can use stones from other places to attack jade. Let's start by learning about the rhythm of classical dance. If that's not enough, you can also find inspiration from the Qingyi Hua Dan in various operas. They not only pursue the charm of the body, but also the rhythm of singing."
Li Shi watched classical dance for another half an hour at Station B. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost five o'clock. Then he turned around and went to the master bedroom. He got up directly from the end of the bed and lay in the middle. One hand was smooth and the other was plump. Quickly enter sweet dreams.
After only three hours of sleep, I woke up naturally. Seeing the snow-capped mountain lotus and the water lily still sleeping, I cautiously got out of bed.
I strolled to the study, found pen and ink from the bookcase, and started copying "Lanting Preface".
People from the Jin Dynasty favored Yun, and the first one is naturally Wang Xizhi's "Preface to the Lanting Collection", which happens to be one of the three copybooks that have the greatest influence on Li Shi's cursive calligraphy.
The other two are Ouyang Xun's "Zhang Hansi Yu Tie" and Mi Fu's "Shu Su Tie".
Xie Jin said in "Chun Yu Miscellanies": "Lanting, the preface of Youjun, has perfect characters and is especially good at layout. As the saying goes, an increase is too long, and a loss is too short."
This seems to praise a naturally beautiful dancer.
The full text of "Preface to the Lanting Collection" has 28 lines and 324 words. Li Shi read it over and over again. He felt that it was much better than the last time he wrote with a physical brush. He couldn't help but be happy - it seems that practicing calligraphy with thoughts and imagination is good for himself. Say, it does work!
"Wang Xizhi was drinking with friends in the mountains and rivers. When he was a little tipsy, he wrote this eternal masterpiece to express his many inner feelings. It can be said that it was a chance meeting, but it was also the result of the accumulation of previous literary and calligraphy qualities."
"With my current accumulation, even if I have the chance again, I won't be able to write such a masterpiece. I can only hope for something wonderful."
"Inviting friends to travel around the mountains and rivers is his source of creative inspiration, but what about my source of inspiration?"
Li Shi immediately remembered what he had thought about last night. After thinking about it again, he took out his tablet and continued to watch classical dance videos online.
Half an hour later.
"Watching the video is too boring, I still have to watch it live."
Li Shi first thought about the people around him and found that he didn't seem to know anyone who studied dance professionally. The only dance-related person he knew was Chen Muling, a girl from Baodao whom he met by chance on the road to Beijing.
"She seems to like watching various dance performances, so I just want to ask her."
Li Shi put down his tablet, picked up his phone, found Chen Muling's WeChat account, and sent a message: "Muling, I recently wanted to see what the best classical dance in China is like. Do you have any recommendations?"
Although he and this Baodao girl only got together briefly for a day when they met by chance, they did not lose contact after that. They would occasionally chat on WeChat and give likes in Moments.
After sending the message, Chen Muling quickly replied: "Of course it's "Only Green". I'm going to watch two dance dramas in a row recently!"
Li Shi touched his chin. He had heard of this dance, which was very popular on the Internet some time ago.
While chatting with Chen Muling, he opened station b, searched, and quickly found the video.
Click play to enjoy Li Shi in full screen.
The dance poetry drama "Only This Green" tells the story of a young researcher from the Forbidden City who "traveled" back to the Northern Song Dynasty through seven chapters: "unrolling scrolls, asking about seal characters, singing silk, looking for stones, practicing brushwork, tempering ink, and painting". The "Scroll Exhibitor" "peeps" into the story of painter Wang Ximeng's creation of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".
He was watching the party version of Station B.
Following the sound of silk and bamboo, Li Shi was quickly attracted by every move of the lead dancer in the dim light.
After watching the eight-minute video, he recalled the last scene with the lady in the painting for more than ten seconds.
"No name, no title, just this one volume, green for thousands of years, boundless mountains and rivers."
What a beautiful picture of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"!
What a dance to "Only Green"!
Li Shi remembered that Chen Muling had said before that she was going to watch this dance drama twice in a row, and immediately searched the Internet for relevant performance information on her mobile phone.
I soon found a piece of news on the official website of the Oriental Performing Arts Troupe, the producer of this work: "Only Green" - the dance painting "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" tour has been very popular, and the last two stops in Shanghai and Beijing are arousing expectations!
Since there are still two stops left, Li Shi, who is still recalling the figure and expression of the lead dancer, naturally does not want to miss it.
He quickly searched for ticket information.
But I soon became disappointed - even after checking several ticketing platforms, there were no tickets available.
I also searched for relevant ticket sales news, and soon saw news that the tickets for "Only Green" in Shanghai Station were sold out within fifteen minutes after they went on sale.
Li Shi picked up the tablet again and looked at the information on the Oriental Performing Arts Troupe's official website.
"The next performance is from July 16th to July 18th at the Shanghai Grand Theater."
Li Shi thought about it for a while. This dance drama is so popular. If he wants to watch it live, he probably has to buy scalper tickets...
While he was wondering whether to buy scalper tickets, Chen Muling sent a message: "Have you watched the video of Only This Green? What do you think? (Looking forward to it)"
Li Shi thought to himself, judging from her question and the expression of expectation, she was indeed a fan of this dance.
Typing, I replied: "I just watched it at Station B. I felt very good, especially at the end..."
He talked about his feelings after watching it, and said with emotion: "I originally wanted to go to watch it live like you, but unfortunately there are no tickets available through official channels. I am considering whether to buy scalper tickets."
Chen Muling: "Absolutely. Tickets went on sale one and a half months in advance. This dance was very popular on the Internet. It was sold out not long after the tickets were released. My friend and I bought it after ordering alarm clocks."
Li Shi: "That's it."
So far, he has not been to dance dramas, concerts or other performances, so he lacks knowledge in this area.
Not wanting to, Chen Muling sent another message and asked: "Do you really want to go too? If so, my friend who was planning to go together had something to do in the past few days, so she thought she could still watch at Beijing Station anyway, so she didn't plan to go to Shanghai. She is in town, but she still hesitates because she made an appointment with me... If you go, I will ask her to transfer the ticket to you."
Li Shi didn't expect such a good thing, and immediately said: "Okay, how much is it, I will transfer the money to her now!"
Chen Muling: "No, just make sure you go. I'll treat you as a treat. Thank you for treating me to dinner last time! (Biya)"
Li Shi didn't worry about this. Since they wanted to go to the show together, he could just make up for her somewhere else when they met. He asked, "Okay, I'm sure I will go."
Chen Muling: "Okay, I'll tell my friend right now."
After chatting for a while, Chen Muling said: "Okay, I told my friend and sent her your mobile phone number. She is working on it. You should receive a ticket transfer message on your phone later. .”
As soon as Li Shi read her WeChat message, a text message came.
When I clicked on it, I saw the ticket information. The performance at 7:30 pm on July 16th also came with an electronic ticket QR code.
He calculated the time and found that it was June 27th, with nineteen days left.
Li Shi switched to the chat interface with Chen Muling and replied: "I've received it. Thank you friend for me."
Chen Muling: "Yeah, but shouldn't you thank me first? (Hehe)"
Li Shi pursed his lips and typed: "I will thank you when we meet again."
After making an appointment to meet in Shanghai in a few days, the two ended their chat for the time being.
Li Shi watched the eight-minute dance video of "Only This Green" on his tablet again.
"This work really has the feeling of watching "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". This feeling comes from... In addition to the music, stage and makeup, more importantly, the dancers' body movements and expressions create a temperament and aura. , the feeling is very similar to the picture scroll...these dancers are so amazing...and the choreographer and director are also so amazing!"
Li Shi remembered that he had seen in the news that two directors were co-directing. He found those two names and searched them.
Zhou Liya, a Chinese dance choreographer, graduated from the Choreography Department of BJ Dance Academy. She has won many "Wenhua Director Award", "Wenhua Award", "Lotus Cup Dance Drama Award", "Five One Project Award", "National Stage Art Quality Project", etc. .
Han Zhen, a Chinese dance choreographer, graduated from the Choreography Department of BJ Dance Academy. She has won many national awards such as the "Wenhua Award", the Chinese Dance "Lotus Award", and the "Five One Project Award".
"Good guy, with so many awards, it seems that they are all big names in the dance world, and these two are actually classmates and roommates in college."
Li Shi searched for some more works created by these two people. After reading them, he had the idea of communicating with them.
"Dancers are very important, but the choreographer may understand the details and connotation of the work better. Well, I'd better wait until I go to Shanghai this time to watch the live performance first. If the work is really that good, if I think it can bring me a Some calligraphy inspiration... Then find a chance to get to know each other."
Li Shi stayed in the study until past ten o'clock without realizing it. Suddenly he felt a little hungry. When he looked at the time, he realized that so much time had passed.
He stood up and walked a few steps toward the door. He immediately heard movement in the living room. When he listened carefully, it was the sound of the TV.
He accelerated a few steps up, opened the door, and immediately saw two women sitting on the sofa.
As soon as Chen Qiuye saw him, he immediately stood up and ran over, hooked his neck, and hit his face four or five times before saying, "Shitou, why did you come into the study for so long so early in the morning? We didn't know you would still be here this time." It’s not in a state where you can’t be disturbed, so I couldn’t even bear to go in and bother you.”
Li Shi held her chin, savored the softness and smoothness of Lieyan, and said with a smile: "Silly Qiuye, I told you yesterday that you don't need to retreat in the future."
After a long time, Li Shi ate the handmade buns made by Wang Yuelan again.
The skin is thin and the meat is thick, big and soft. Because she added some milk when making the noodles, it tastes not only meaty but also milky. The taste is truly a treasure in the world.
Li Shi didn't eat anything after getting up, so he was hungry for a long time. He first found the two largest ones to satisfy his hunger. After his stomach was full, he picked two slightly smaller ones and tasted them slowly.
Happy days always pass quickly.
Especially Chen Qiuye and Wang Yuelan, they spent most of their time lying on bed or resting on the sofa. It felt like time really flew by. Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Shi didn't feel that time passed particularly fast. He clearly remembered that an hour was sixty minutes and three thousand six hundred seconds, and that every minute was occasionally one hundred and twenty simple vibrations, and occasionally regular or irregular vibrations. Hundreds and thousands of times.
His current physical attribute is as high as 34.9.
There are many things that you can do as you please.
Li Shi planned to stay in Yangcheng until Chen Qiuye's vacation was over. For the first three days, he stayed at home with his two girls and did not go out. On the morning of the fourth day, the three of them finally went out to have morning tea with Guo Lan and Bijia. Assistant Zhang Huijing The message was sent: "Boss, is it convenient for you to answer the phone over there? I have something that I need to report to you immediately."
Li Shi glanced at the two women who were changing clothes. Their graceful figures were so eye-catching no matter how you looked at them.
He looked away with a smile and called Zhang Huijing directly using WeChat voice.
"What's wrong?"
"Boss, it's like this. Didn't I find a local school girl to be a tour guide? She has a relative in the county's cultural tourism unit. When she learned that we..."
Asking for a monthly ticket.
