The stone cracked and shook the sky(石破天驚)
During the Tang Dynasty in China, there was
a famous poet called (Li He).
Once he went to hear a concert by a famous
musician of the time.
The musician's name is Li Ping, and the
name of the instrument Li Ping uses is (konghou).
This is an ancient Chinese musical
instrument whose playing technique has been lost.
After Li He heard this performance, his
heart was deeply shocked.
He thought the performance was so wonderful
that he wrote a poem expressing his feelings after listening to the concert.
The general meaning of the poem is as
follows.
One autumn night, I heard a concert by Li
Ping playing the..
Li Ping created a variety of different
sounds with his instruments.
These sounds were like breaking pieces of
beautiful jade, and also like the cry of the phoenix.
Lee uses his instruments to express a
variety of emotions.
These sounds made Hibiscus cry and Pandan
laugh happily.
The sound of this 23-stringed instrument
warms the chilly autumn nights in the capital and makes even the gods in the
sky feel strong emotional fluctuations.
Nuwa once used a furnace to refine stones
into five colours: green, red, yellow, white and black. Nuwa used these stones
to repair the holes in the sky.
Halfway through the show it suddenly
started to rain. I think the reason was that the sound of Li Ping playing the
instrument was very high and loud. The sound shook the sky and made a big hole
in the stone that Nuwa used to fill the sky.
The sound of Li Ping's instrument made the
fish and dragons in the river dance.
Li Ping's performance caused the legendary
immortal who lived on the moon to stop working, and the legendary rabbit who
lived on the moon to listen quietly.
The direct translation of this idiom is
that the stone cracked and the sky shook.
This idiom is used to describe the sound
produced by an instrument that is very high and loud.
This idiom has been extended to describe a
thing or an object or a person's speech that is very amazing.

石破天驚(The stone cracked and shook the sky)
中國的唐王朝時代，有一個著名的詩人，他的名字叫做(李賀)。
有一次，他去聽一個當時著名的音樂家的演奏會。
這個音樂家的名字叫做李憑，李憑使用的樂器的名字叫做(箜篌)。
這是一種彈奏方法已經失傳的古代中國的樂器。
李賀聽完這場演出之後，他的內心受到極大的震動。
他覺得這場演出非常的精彩，所以他寫了一首詩，他在這首詩中記錄下他聽完這場演奏會後的感受。
這首詩的大概的意思如下。
在一個秋天的夜晚，我聽到李憑演奏(箜篌)的一場演奏會。
李憑用樂器演奏出各種不同的聲音。
這些聲音像是擊碎了一塊一塊美麗的玉石，也像是鳳凰的叫聲。
李憑用樂器表達出各種不同的情緒。
這些聲音讓芙蓉花聽到都流淚，讓香蘭花聽到都開心大笑。
這個有著23根弦的樂器的聲音，讓秋天微涼的首都的夜晚變的溫暖，這聲音讓天界的神仙也感受強烈的情緒波動。
女媧曾經用火爐去煉製出青赤黃白黑共五種顏色的石頭，女媧用這些石頭把天空的破洞補好。
演出進行到一半時突然下起了一陣雨。我想原因是因為李憑演奏樂器的聲音非常高亢與響亮，這聲音讓天空驚動並且讓女媧用來填補天空的石頭破裂出一個大洞。
李憑演奏樂器的聲音讓河中的魚跟龍都開始跟著跳舞。
李憑的演出讓傳說中住在月亮上的仙人也停止工作，傳說中住在月亮上的那隻兔子也安靜地傾聽。
這句成語直接翻譯的意思是石頭破裂而且天空震動。
這句成語被用來形容樂器彈奏出來的聲音非常的高亢與響亮。
這句成語被引申用來形容一件事情或者一個物體或者一個人的言論非常的驚人。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你最喜歡那一種樂器的聲音呢?你聽過最令你難忘的音樂演奏會是哪一場呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
