Chapter 13 Explaining Amu Yoko

When I was young, I liked to sing a song very much. It was called "A City Full of Songs".The lyrics are as follows: Good boy lives in a beautiful city A city full of happiness, joy, and songs Florist flower arrangement, click, click The blacksmith strikes the iron, clank, clank Although it was just a nursery rhyme, it was very popular at the time, and it was natural to think of the melody when you saw the lyrics. When I was reading "Wind Story", somehow I thought of this old song, and unknowingly, "Wind Story" and "City Full of Songs" overlapped in my mind.

Childhood ballads are often memorized and sung on the lips without understanding the meaning of the lyrics. There are even many misunderstandings, which I didn't realize until I grew up.For a long time, I believed that the city of happiness, joy, and singing is the Windy City. There are scenes in the singing when I was young. When singing different songs at different times, the heart will have the same artistic conception as the song. I sing "A City Full of Songs" usually not at home, but only when I am alone: When I was scolded by my mother and kicked out of the gate; when I squatted under the eaves alone to watch the sunset; when it rained, I was instructed to go shopping, and when I ran in the rain with canvas shoes with frayed heels; When I went home, I was left alone on the beach to continue the game without a partner

Because it was already a long time ago, so whether it was actually like this, even I couldn't remember clearly.However, the impression that the City of Songs is the City of the Wind gradually settled in my mind. The city where the good boy lives is a monotonous city, with flower shops and blacksmiths but no inhabitants, only the long shadows of buildings, and the sound of clicking and clanging is not singing but wind.Twirling the bright elements of the lyrics and tune in my head, the song became a surreal painting. The way I came here, the street I used to live in. The wind blows across the street.

Some places in the song are the same as "Wind Story". After reading the whole story of "Wind Story", the street is a very important theme scene in each plot.Is this another feeling caused by the inherent concepts in my head? Man and woman, past and present. These things that are easy to move are matched with the still streets. Although inhabited and with history flowing, the street feels like a place where time has stopped. As soon as we step inside, we enter an incredible country. Needless to say, "Family on High Hill" and "Comfortable Neighborhood" are based on the theme of the street as a whole. Others such as "Man Looking at Tiptoes", "Swing", "Dangerous Picture Book" and so on have selected us Common scenes serve as the background of the story, allowing readers to capture a moment in life.

However, the streets here are not actual streets. It is a screen that reflects people's lives.This screen shows the changes of the times, the passage of seasons, and the changes of people's hearts through a panorama. The street described in "Wind Story" is not so much a scene as a more appropriate scenery, the scenery of the wind.The wind blows through here constantly. Moreover, I don't know when the wind will erode the street and make it disappear without a trace. This may be weathering.In this work, wind and street are both antonyms and synonyms.This is a dialogue between time and space, but also beyond time and space.

The background of A Daotian's works, whether they are modern dramas or love stories between men and women, is not the three-dimensional space we live in now. When I read his works, I was excited to see the entrance of the four-dimensional space. with joy. To make some digressions, A Daotian occasionally makes kimonos appear on the stage. When women wear kimonos, they are noble and elegant, and they don't look cumbersome in his works.When men wear kimonos, they are solemn and serious, which makes people feel deep-minded, and there is a temptation to rush into it. A Daotian's works are very far-reaching in themselves, and the shadows of the characters on the stage are very long.The shadow of a character is not only as long as one shadow, but seems to bear the shadow of the past life of reincarnation, or has a premonition that the shadow of the present will be added to the body of the next life.What's even more incredible is that the shadow is neither dark nor dark.

Like the morning dew on the leaf tip, salivating; like the sand in the desert, clean and dry. So when you read, you will smile slightly or shed tears silently, and you will never laugh or cry sadly. Paper dolls, hourglasses, picture books, paper cranes, these beautiful things gently surround the fear of peeping into the abyss of life. Finally, please forgive me for saying a rambling remark, A Daotian's face is blessed.Although I don't know much about face-to-face knowledge, I believe in this.Not only his face, but Atoda's whole body is filled with happiness.Steady eyes, full and round forehead, no matter how you look at it, you feel that the god of happiness is around him.

Reading does not necessarily have to get any encouragement or inspire any courage from it, but after reading this work by A Daotian, it can remind people of some people around them, or themselves, a deep nostalgia at this time It will arise spontaneously. The twelve stories in "Wind Story" are like twelve wind spirits telling, different people have different lives. After reading it, I said with emotion: Starting tomorrow, I will work hard to live my life well!I don't think I'm the only one who feels this way. (End of the book)
