Yu Boya was a skilled guqin player from Chu, and later he became an official in Jin.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Boya went to Jiangkou, Hanyang by boat on the way to Chu. After a storm, Boya saw the beautiful river and mountains. He started to play the guqi n on the boat.
Suddenly, he noticed a woodcutter listening with his eyes closed. Boya was suspicious(令人怀疑的) about how there was someone in the wild field who would understand music. The woodcutter replied,"Don't be suspicious. I was blocked here by the storm. When I was about to go home,l suddenly heard a guqi n sound. I was attracted."
Boya played another piece of music, and the woodcutter said,"At first, your guqin sound was so high and powerful, just like these high mountains; later, your guqi n sound was so wide, just like waves and running water..."Boya thought he found his dream friend. He knew the woodcutter's name was Zhong Ziqi and they talked happily. They became brothers. Then they made a date to meet here the next Mid-Autumn Festival.
The following year, Boya returned on the Mid-Autumn Festival. But he learned that Ziqi had passed away. He was very sad and played the music in front of Ziqi's tomb. And then he broke his guqin and vowed never to play the guqi n again, because he believed no one could ever understand the meaning of his music again.
Ili gh Mountain and Flowing Water shows valuable friendship in Chines c culture. Although the piece usually performed today is not the same one that Boya played thousands of years ago, it shows the same idea.
