1. During the Warring States period, there was a musician named Gong Mingyi, who could compose and play music, and played the seven-stringed zither very well, and the tunes he played were so beautiful that many people liked to listen to him play the zither, and they respected him.

2. Gong Mingyi not only played the zither indoors, but also liked to take the zither to the countryside to play in good weather. One day, he came to the countryside, the spring breeze blowing gently, the willow gently moving, a yellow cow is on the grass low grazing. Gong Ming Yi was so excited that he set up his zither, strummed the strings, and played the most elegant piece of music for the cow, "The Exercise of the Clear Horn". The old bull was indifferent, and still kept his head down and ate grass.

3, Gongming Yi thought, this tune may be too elegant, should change the tune, play a small song. The old ox is still unresponsive and continues to eat grass leisurely. Gong Ming Yi took out all his skills and played the most skillful tune. This time, the old bull occasionally flicked his tail, driving gadflies, and still lowered his head to eat grass without squeaking.
