Liezi Tang Wen
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in the 4th century BC, Lieyukou, a native of Zheng, recorded in Liezi Tang Wen, "Boya is good at playing the drum and Zhong Ziqi is good at listening. Boya drums and harp, aiming at the mountains, Zhong Ziqi said:' Good, I am as tall as Mount Tai.' Determined to run water, Zhong Ziqi said,' it's good, and it's like a river.' ..... "
No matter whether it is" aiming at high mountains "or" aiming at flowing water ",whenever Boya expresses a certain theme or image in his music, Zhong Ziqi will be able to understand its meaning. One day, Boya and Zhong Ziqi * * * swam in the shade of Mount Tai. During the rainstorm, they stopped under the rock. Boya was depressed, so she played the piano for a while. At first, Qin music shows the scene of rain falling on a mountain stream, and then simulates the sound of mountain stream skyrocketing and rock and soil collapse. After each piece of music is finished, Zhong Ziqi "needs to be poor in its interest", making the images in the music extremely transparent. Boya then left the piano and sighed, "Good, good, your Excellency can hear the interest in the song. What you think is what I think. Where can I hide my voice?" So they became life confidants. However, there is nothing in Liezi that Boya stopped playing the piano because of Zhong Ziqi's death.
