It's a famous saying that the musical instrument harmonizes with the time. Bo Ya plays the piano and Zhong Ziqi listens to him. Boya played the piano when he was thinking about the mountain. Zhong Ziqi said, "Well played, just like the towering mountain." After a while, Boya thought of flowing water again. Zhong Ziqi said, "Well played, just like the flowing water of the vast soup." After Zhong Ziqi's death, Boya broke the piano and never played again. He thought there was no one worth playing for.
The story of high mountains and flowing water
In ancient times, Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi were bosom friends. It is said that Zhong Ziqi sailed down the river and suddenly heard the sound of the piano on the shore. It turned out that Yu Boya was playing the piano, and the name of the song was high mountains and flowing water. Although Zhong Ziqi and Yu Boya were never masked, they understood the meaning expressed in the song, so they stopped to meet Yu Boya ashore and became bosom friends. After Zhong Ziqi's death, Yu Boya set the piano on fire at his grave. When it comes to my child's death, I have no bosom friend, so what's the use of the piano? Later generations used mountains and flowing water as a metaphor for bosom friends.
