Playing the flute with the wind (14 points)

Lin Qingxuan

⑴A cool breeze blew from a distance. There was a whistling sound in the wind. Listening carefully, it sounded like a certain kind of music. After analyzing it for a long time, I determined that it was the sound of a flute, because Xiao's voice was not that clear or high-pitched. Because it came so far away, I doubted my own judgment; whose flute sound can penetrate the vast plains, and there is rain in the sky, and it can pass through the sound of rain and spread in the surrounding fields? The sound of the flute doesn't seem that long, not to mention there are only a few simple rhythms.

⑵ The place where I stand is a farmland in the countryside. To the left and right are rice fields that extend into the distance. Behind me is a mountain, and in front of me is a bamboo forest. The music obviously comes from the Ma Bamboo Forest, and it seems to be echoing in the distance behind.

⑶Is there anyone in the bamboo forest? When I was a child, I felt that among all the forests, bamboo forests were the most mysterious, especially those with a long history. Because no matter how dense the woods are, sunlight can always penetrate without difficulty. Only the dense leaves of the bamboo forest can sometimes not even the sunlight can do anything about. No matter how large the forest is, there are rules, and people can walk freely in it. Only certain bamboo forests are There are no rules, and sometimes you get lost when you walk into it. Therefore, since childhood, my father has told us the principle of "don't enter the bamboo forest", not to mention that some bamboo forests have random thorns, like thorny bamboo forests.

⑷Thinking like this, I hesitated to walk into the bamboo forest. I sat down on the edge of the rice field and listened to that piece of music alone. I saw that it was still early and we were about two miles away from the bamboo forest, so I decided to go for a walk in the bamboo forest - I thought that a place with music must be safe.

⑸When I stood in front of the bamboo forest, I was shocked by the music like the wind, sea and rain. It was like a sea of ??music, turbulent and powerful. It was not music in the world, and there was no music in the bamboo forest. people.

⑹The bamboo itself is a musical instrument, the wind is the conductor, and the bamboo and bamboo leaves are the players. It turned out that the bamboos had been sprinkled with light rain, and there were water stains on them. When they rubbed against each other, they made a sharp sound like a flute. And the gaps between the swaying bamboo leaves all over the sky, even if it rains, cannot stop the wind, and make many thin sounds, matching the sound of the bamboo flutes.

⑺Everyone is moved by the sounds of nature, such as the singing of frogs on a summer night, the leaping singing of birds in the spring morning, or even the symphony of the waves on a windy day. There is no natural sound that does not make us admire. Every year at the turn of winter and spring, I hear the spring thunder in the distance in the silent night, and there is always a tremor of joy in my heart.

⑻I have a friend who prefers the singing of cicadas. When he was in Mengxia, he often sat alone in the mountains for a day in order to listen to the sound of cicadas. Once he gave me a tape recording the sound of cicadas recorded in Hualien Mountain. It was winter when it was sent to me. I played the tape in the cold night, and thousands of cicadas chirped in unison, making the cold house seem like there were countless cicadas flying around and singing in duet. The beauty of that experience was sometimes not inferior to listening to cicadas in the mountains. .

⑼ Later, I also liked to record natural sounds, such as the sound of flowing streams and the sound of mountain breezes. One time I played a tape with the title "Stream" on it. Between the instruments and the cong, there were suddenly two long and sharp sounds of mountain birds, ringing in the ears and lingering for a long time, just like a person thinking about the joys of the past in a calm moment and suddenly losing his voice and sighing with joy.

⑽ But I have heard many natural sounds, but none of them were as profound as this time in the bamboo forest. It turns out that all the sounds in nature are solos, and no matter how beautiful the sounds are, they can only move our heartstrings, but the symphony of the bamboo forest completely surrounded me, like the first closely ringing note of a hundred-person symphony orchestra. Only then did I truly understand why many musical instruments in China are made of bamboo, because no natural plant can produce a sound as clear, distant, and long as bamboo.

⑾It is a pity that I was not able to record the sound of bamboo. I went there several times later, and it was either no rain, no wind, or there was wind and rain, but the cooperation was not as good as before. Only then did I realize that you still have to be blessed to listen to good natural sounds. They are infinitely varied and different every moment. If there is no wind, bamboo is just bamboo. With wind, bamboo becomes music. Wind and rain are just enough to cause the bamboos to rub against each other, and the bamboos become a symphony.

⑿ People who have lost their understanding of natural sounds are the most miserable. When someone says "the scenery is as beautiful as a painting", the state of mind is low, because the painting is quiet, and the natural scenery is alive. In addition to sight, nature also provides various sounds. This dual combination makes nature transcend the realm that humans can create. There are countless artists in the world who draw inspiration from nature, but no matter how good the artist is, they can never completely capture the soul of nature, because nature has sounds and pictures, is alive, and is changing all the time. These are all artistic expressions. realm that cannot be reached.

⒀The most important thing is that no matter how good art is, it must have an ending. Naturally, there is no ending. Understanding this, the artist will inevitably feel the loneliness of "thinking about the long journey of heaven and earth, crying alone with sadness". One can draw a moving picture of the Yangtze River, but it will never be as moving as the true scene of the Yangtze River; one can record the singing of cicadas, but it can never replace watching the beautiful cicadas sing their moving songs in the treetops.

⒁That day, I heard the bamboos playing the flute in the wind in the bamboo forest, and I forgot the passage of time. When I walked out of the bamboo forest, the setting sun was already lingering in the valley. The rain has stopped, but it seems that I have gone through a spiritual bath and washed away all the mundane things.

⒂I feel that as long as there is nature, people have no reason to give up on themselves.
