Chapter 3404 Evil Cultivator Xie Xiaoxu
When Xie Xiaoxu said that he was inspired by reciting Tang poems and wrote a new song, Xiaobai and Liuliu were extremely curious. Even Wang Qianqian and Xiaomi next to them came over, wanting to see what good work Xie Xiaoxu had written.
Currently, Xie Xiaoxu's most famous work is probably "Picking Up Trash Together" written for Robin. In addition, although he is not the original author of "My Dear Jia Shufen" and "Yufen, Yufen, You Made Brother Biao So Sad", he put in a lot of effort to spread them, so much so that many people in Hongqi Primary School thought that he also wrote these two songs. When they heard these songs playing in the square dance at night, they proudly told the adults that the songs were written by his classmate. It has even spread to the square. Our school is really full of talented people.
"Is this it?" Liu Liu eagerly took Xie Xiaoxu's notebook. It was crumpled and crumpled, and it was obvious that Xie Xiaoxu was also a poor student.
Huh? Why use "也"?
Liu Liu put down her workbook, flipped to the last page, and saw the dense, messy handwriting. She couldn't help but complain, "Xie Xiaoxu, you're such a terrible student! Your handwriting is so ugly. How can you call yourself a third-grade student? Do you have any respect for your country?"
Xie Xiaoxu blushed slightly, but couldn't help but retort, "What does this have to do with the motherland?"
Liuliu said, "You are a flower of the motherland. It's such a misfortune for the motherland to have a flower like you!"
Xie Xiaoxu hesitated for a moment, then fell silent. Xiaobai stopped Liuliu and took the notebook to look at Xie Xiaoxu's new song.
Besides Robin, Xiaobai is the only one who is most interested in Xie Xiaoxu's new song.
Although Liu Liu was eager to make a name for herself in the music industry, she always looked down on Xie Xiaoxu's abilities, believing him to be a heretic who followed crooked paths.
"Let me see!"
Liuliu refused to let go of her workbook and read aloud, "Li Bai and Wang Lun drinking with flowers! Is that the song title?"
Xie Xiaoxu nodded: "Yes, yes, this is what I wrote, haha! You guys read it, it's very well written."
Xiaomi and Wang Qianqian asked in surprise, "Why is it called that? It doesn't seem very proper."
"How is it not proper! This is a genuinely good song. You all remember 'Li Bai and Wang Lun Drinking Flowers and Wine,' right? We've studied it. It's a great poem, a famous line throughout the ages!" Xie Xiaoxu tried her best to defend herself.
After speaking, perhaps worried that one of the four people present might not remember the poem, he cleared his throat and recited: "Li Bai was about to set sail when he suddenly heard singing on the shore. The Peach Blossom Pool is a thousand feet deep, but it cannot compare to the affection Wang Lun showed me before parting!" Li Bai and Wang Lun were good friends, and the song I wrote is about their drinking before parting!
Liu Liu scratched her head: "I know this poem, but drinking 'flower wine'? Li Bai and Wang Lun drinking 'flower wine'? What is 'flower wine'?"
Xie Xiaoxu had his own interpretation. He said, "Look, Li Bai and Wang Lun parted in the spring, the season of blooming flowers, and the place they were in was called Peach Blossom Pool. Drinking wine by the pool is called drinking flower wine, isn't it?! Creation is an artistic process, it can't be completely realistic. I'll process it artistically, extract the beautiful imagery, and name it 'drinking flower wine.' Just hearing the name is very romantic, which is in line with Li Bai's identity as a poet immortal."
Xiao Bai was both amused and exasperated. Xiao Mi pressed, "Xie Xiaoxu, then why did you write about Li Bai and Wang Lun drinking together?"
Xie Xiaoxu said excitedly, "Because my dad and my uncle often drink together, and my dad likes to sing when he's drunk, and so does my uncle! I thought, Li Bai and Wang Lun must have been like that too! All men are the same, whether in ancient or modern times, so I wrote this song!"
Xiao Bai was speechless and could only give Xie Xiaoxu a thumbs up, praising him as a true talent!
Wang Qianqian smiled and urged Liuliu to recite the lyrics quickly, as she had only heard the song title so far.
Liu Liu tried hard to decipher Xie Xiaoxu's handwriting and began to recite the lyrics:
"Just as Li Bai was about to leave by boat, he suddenly heard Wang Lun shouting from the shore, 'Your wine cup still has wine; no one can leave until they finish it!'"
Hearing this, Xiaobai and the others were speechless. This wasn't romantic at all. How could the poet drinking be like a shirtless burly man at a street food stall? The déjà vu was too strong, and their romanticized view of him was shattered.
Liu Liu laughed loudly: "Xie Xiaoxu, what you wrote is not as good as what I wrote. What I wrote sounds much better than what you wrote."
Xie Xiaoxu usually doesn't argue with Liu Liu, but when it comes to songwriting, he's always been proud and absolutely can't let Liu Liu outdo him. So he immediately retorted, "Liu Liu, don't underestimate my lyrics just because they're not highbrow. They're down-to-earth. They're the real state of good friends drinking together. Can't you picture it right away?"
Liu Liu thought for a moment, then nodded. She had to admit that she did have a picture in her mind. Although her parents had never drunk like that, she had seen such scenes at the night market stalls around her home.
Xie Xiaoxu said happily, "That's right, it means I write good lyrics. We don't pursue fancy words, we pursue simple and accurate words."
Xiao Bai said, "Xie Xiaoxu is right. Although the last few lines were simple, they were very vivid. Liu Liu, don't waste time, hurry up and continue reciting the lyrics."
Liu Liu continued reading: "After listening, Li Bai looked up from the shore, waved to Wang Lun, and said, 'There aren't even any peanuts. I'm not drinking, I'm leaving.' Wang Lun roared from the shore, 'You can't leave until you finish drinking!' Wang Lun roared back, 'I won't drink, I'm leaving! There aren't even any peanuts! I can't get enough of this wine!' Not long after Li Bai left, Wang Lun immediately turned back, went into the house, found a pig's head, and secretly drank alone all night. Li Bai heard this and roared loudly, 'You really don't treat me like a friend!' Heartbroken, he drank alone and cursed Wang Lun all night..."
Before Liuliu could finish reading, Xiao Mi and Wang Qianqian couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle, while Xiaobai looked helpless.
Xie Xiaoxu chuckled sheepishly: "Xiaobai, what do you guys think?"
Xiao Bai was about to say it wasn't very good, but she held back, not wanting to discourage Xie Xiaoxu, so she said, "We've only heard the lyrics so far, what about the melody? Why don't you sing it?"
"Okay!" Xie Xiaoxu readily agreed, probably having been waiting for Xiaobai to say that.
He ran to his seat, took out a ukulele from his drawer. This guy was prepared; he often hid his ukulele in his schoolbag and brought it to school.
Liu Liu shouted, "Come quick! Xie Xiaoxu is about to sing!"
The classmates all looked over and quickly formed a circle around him. Xie Xiaoxu wasn't nervous at all; he was very excited. He was the kind of person who gets carried away by crowds, and the more people there were, the more energetic he became.
He stepped onto the chair and sat on the desk.
"My chair! My table!!" Liuliu shouted.
"I'll wipe it for you in a bit," Xie Xiaoxu said.
He sat on the desk, looking down at the students, holding a ukulele. He coughed twice, cleared his throat, and began by introducing the background of the song's creation to the students.
When his classmates heard that he wrote the poem after reciting "A Farewell to Wang Lun," they discussed it extensively. Some praised Xie Xiaoxu for his talent and said he would definitely become a great singer in the future. Others said that Xie Xiaoxu just liked to write doggerel but didn't study properly.
But overall, there were mostly compliments.
Undeterred by the outside world, Xie Xiaoxu played the ukulele a couple of times to test the sound, and then began to sing...
The intro is cheerful and lively, making you want to move around.
"Just as Li Bai was about to depart by boat, he suddenly heard Wang Lun roaring from the shore..."
Xiao Bai's eyes lit up. Hehe, although the lyrics aren't great, the melody is quite catchy and easy to remember. It has the potential to spread virally.
When singing the chorus:
"Wang Lun roars from the shore, 'You can't leave until you finish your drink!' Wang Lun roars from the shore, 'I refuse to drink, I'm leaving!'"
Xie Xiaoxu got really into singing, so he got off the table and stood back and forth in the aisle, interacting with his classmates as he sang, pulling and tugging at them. He was Li Bai, and his classmates were Wang Lun, making everyone laugh out loud. The classroom was filled with laughter and joy.
Wang Qianqian blushed. She was pulled by Xie Xiaoxu to cooperate, but she was shy and embarrassed. She pushed Liuliu out and hid to the side.
