368, plucked heartstrings

There are more than a dozen islands in the center of the lake, both large and small, on Xingwen Lake. After all, they are located in Kyoto City, so these islands are not very big.

Ginkgo Island, which traveled with Xizi on the night of Xiaoxiao's birthday, is a relatively large island. Except for three or four such large islands on the lake, the rest are small and medium-sized islands.

For example, Jingqiu Island, where mangroves are planted all over the island, but the yard is as big as three or four. Because there are several tea pavilions on the island, it is quite suitable for Mid-Autumn Festival moon viewing. Many families have booked seats here tonight. "The scenery of that island is not ordinary, but I like the name Jingqiu." Ruicai stripped a black diamond and looked at Jingqiu Island, which was full of red and yellow glass lamps not far away.

"It's probably taken from 'Bright Water Shocking Autumn, Huang Yun Ningmu'." Xiaoxiao looked at the table and found that the second brother had prepared some wine for everyone.

"The words in Qin Guan's writing are sometimes really want to soak them in tea and drink them slowly." Xizi smiled and took a sip of osmanthus honey tea.

"Where is Li Taibai's poem, I'm afraid I'll have to soak in the wine and get drunk!" Dan Tai Furong laughed and looked at the two small pots of wine held by Xiaoxiao. They were both Huang Guichao wine, and they were actually coconut wine. "Who, this coconut wine is not easy to get!"

"Su Dongpo is drinking this kind of wine in Lingnan. "Xiaoxiao opened the pot of coconut wine, and the smell of coconut fragrance was swelling. The girl next to her poured it into everyone's cup. Xiaoxiao also joked: "Su Dongpo's words must be steamed with Dongpo's pork~"

The girls laughed and went to taste the coconut wine curiously. After tasting, they all were amazed at the deliciousness and sweetness of the wine, but also had a strong coconut fragrance.

"I only like this nautilus cup," Ruicai admired the wine glass in his hand. "I was fortunate to see it once at the Hu family's wintersweet banquet last year. There were seven pieces in total since I was a child. I could only enjoy it, but I refused to let the guests use it."

The four girls put four wine glasses together, but they were four nautilus cups of exactly the same size and shape, with exquisite silver edges and silver cup seats. Dan Tai Furong said unconsciously: "No wonder everyone says that there are strange goods here by the Lord of Tang Island."

"There are seas in Qiongzhou and coconut trees. Use this nautilus cup to serve coconut wine, which complements each other." Xizi smiled slightly and admired the nautilus cup as big as a chicken egg in his hand.

Ruicai also smiled and said, "Isn't this true? I forgot the first half of the poem "Nanxiangzi" that describes the ripe mountain fruits. I only vaguely remember the last sentence: The bead curtains on the mulan boat, the singing sounds far away, and the coconut wine pours into the parrot cup."

"This sentence is like Ying Jing'er at this moment, and there are also singing far away, as well as coconut wine and parrot cups." Xizi looked at the moon-shining lake, revealing a look of enjoyment.

Xiaoxiao: Could it be that I alone think it is weird to use conch shells to serve wine...

Dan Tai Furong pushed and smiled: "Your family must have many nautilus. You must have collected a lot of beautiful sea shells when you go out to sea all day long."

"This is true. I have three big boxes of shells." Xiaoxiao remembered the goddess of the sea played by Xizi at the rose feast. She wore many shell ornaments on her head, and all of them came from her treasure chest.

"I'll go to your place to see you one day~" Dan Tai Furong has always been generous.

"Welcome~"

Several people were talking and laughing, and another singing blew across the lake, "The moon passed by the small bridge on the curved bank, the smoke was locked, and the cardamom flowers hung in thousands."

The few people couldn't hide their smiles after listening to them. The few words of the competition just now were not satisfying. Now a new round of competitions is probably beginning again.

"We were talking about Li? They started singing~" Xizi smiled.

"When singing the moon on the spring night during the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is always a dreamy beauty." Xiaoxiao also thought the song was nice.

Ruicai commented while tasting the coconut wine: "According to me, Li's songs "Nanxiangzi" are all good and catchy, and there are some rare words that are rare in the Central Plains people..." Ruicai couldn't think of a more suitable word for a moment. After looking at it, she smiled and suddenly laughed: "It's romance! It's a rare romance among the Central Plains people."

"No wonder, Li? is a descendant of the Persians." Xiaoxiao nodded.

"Why are you all looking like you are well-reading poetry..." Dan Tai Furong frowned and picked up a small snow-white mooncake to eat. "Does the Persians still write poetry? Li? He is actually a Persian... It seems that he had seen his poems in "Huajian Ci" before, but I forgot everything else. I remember a poem that describes the style of Lingnan, which is particularly beautiful. There is a local woman riding an elephant and passing by a tree full of tung tung."

"I also like that song the most." Xiaoxiao agreed, "because the different scenery adds a kind of real romance."

A sound of Bawu sounded, as if a lover was lying in a low voice. This alien music added to the southern style. Then another sound of Ruan Xian was heard. It was perfectly matched with Nabawu. The singing slowly floated from the melody of these two instruments.

"Where we meet, it's sunny in the evening, the thorny tung flowers are down on the front of the platform. Looking back in the secret is deeply meaningful, leaving two green leaves, riding an elephant and carrying people on his back to pass the water first."

When everyone heard the song singing the poems they had just talked about, every girl was so excited that she couldn't speak. The song was so nice. If the song was just now, the song was clear and melodious, then the clean and magnetic man's voice now was straightforward tone.

"How can it be so beautiful! So romantic!" Dan Tai Furong was the first to comment. As she said that, she looked at Xiaoxiao beside her, and felt that the other person's eyes seemed to be confused with a layer of deep green that was unique to the south. "The word romance is also good, so practical."

The others were still immersed in the lingering sound. Xizi murmured for a long time: "No wonder my fourth brother is determined to be the sweet dew in the south... Just taking out this kind of tung tung flower can contain too many artistic conceptions. The name of Xianglu is Wanqingtian."

"I think it seems to be more profound in name 'Yi Shuangcui'." Xiaoxiao looked at the island where singing voices came, with dark blue glass lamps hanging on it, which looked very mysterious.

Ruicai looked thoughtful: "I heard that there seemed to be Yin Sanliu Qiao in the song just now."

Several people looked at Ruicai with distorted expressions: What is that you are talking about...

Ruicai explained: "It is the singer from Qiyuan. I have heard his singing before, which is unforgettable."

There are so many singers in Qiyuan. Xiaoxiao really wants to ask how many of these singers and musicians have ranked in total...

"I have also gone to Qiyuan to listen to the piano once, but it's a pity that Gong Basheng was not there." Dan Tai Furong had infinite regret in her tone. Listening to the singing of Xingwen Lake, she suddenly looked at the island covered with blue glass lamps, "You said, is that island really the territory of Gong Basheng?"

"Didn't the huqin that made us cry just now also come from that island?" Xizi was also curious about the island surrounded by a blue halo.

"The sound of the huqin should be Gong Basheng himself." Ruicai was more sure.

Xiaoxiao was also excited when she heard this, and couldn't help but drink a few more glasses of wine: "It seems that someone has already landed on the island."

Sure enough, several boats and pleasure boats slowly approached the island. The boats were tied to the edge of the island, and the people on the boats held lanterns to the island.

It seems that you can feel the heartbeat of those music fans who landed on the island.

"Let's go too!" Dan Tai Furong stood up excitedly, "I heard that it would cost ten taels of gold to go to the island. We were sitting on such a luxurious Fusheng Island pleasure boat, and we would also complement each other by taking out ten taels of gold."

Everyone was amused by her. The three little girls watching the moon at the other end of the pleasure boat also rushed over and said the first time: "They all said that Gong Basheng is on that Yuyin Island! Let's go quickly, as soon as the crowd is full of people, maybe they will thank the guests!"

Gai Cai hesitated and said, "It seems like you have to pay ten taels of gold to go to the island."

"Is it a person who is ten taels or a boat who is ten taels?" Dan Tai Furong asked seriously.

"It should be ten taels per boat, otherwise the people on the boat would not have all gone to that island." Gaicai analyzed.

"Then let's go now! So many people are worth it!" Dan Tai Furong said very truthfully. Seeing that everyone was eager to try, she directly ordered the girl: "Let them lean on the island!"

So Fusheng Island slowly moved closer to Yuyin Island, and looked at it with a smile. The blue light island was like a blue planet, with the freshest air and the cleanest water source on it.

The pleasure boat passed many small islands along the way, and singing and musical instruments were heard from it, adding more poetic and picturesque to this beautiful night.

Suddenly, a singing voice came from a very distant place, which made people feel unexpected.

Rather than singing, it is more like practicing the sound at will, or improvising the feelings under the beautiful scenery. This song has no lyrics, and it sounds like a slight "Oh" sound.

It is very original. Compared with the various tunes just now, it is closer to nature, close to water and the moon, or in other words, the sound itself is nature, water and the moon.

"Who is singing? How can it be so nice!" Dan Tai Furong listened for a while, "Is this a song? This blind sing can be so nice."

After listening carefully for a while, everyone felt that strangeness was more important than good. After all, the tune was not in tune, and there were even some places that were roaring, like a beast on the moon, trying to turn its brightness into cold and hardness, and then smash it into diamonds and sprinkle it on earth.

This singing was just a very short section, but it covered all the singing and music on Xingwen Lake, like a sharp flash illuminating the night sky, like a bright stream igniting the lake surface, and all the sounds became small and illusory. Only this sound has survived the world for a long time.

After the sound came to an abrupt end, there was a long period of calm on the lake.

"What are you planning to sing?" Smiling couldn't help asking.

"Perhaps everyone will fill in a word for it in their hearts." This is Xizi's explanation, and many people present agreed.

Only smiled and said, "I think this tune is sung for yourself by the singer and has nothing to do with anyone."

Xiaoxiao thought of Gong Basheng, and his singing was to sing it to himself.

Yuyin Island was near, and everyone was eager to try to get off the boat, but Xiaoxiao was confused.

"Tang Yingyuan, come quickly!" Dan Tai Furong stood by the boat and wanted to smile.

Xiaoxiao finally said, "I don't want to go to the island anymore, I want to go to the lake to have a look."
