The reason why Ling Lun imitated Feng Mingyin with bamboo flute is as follows:

1. Introduction to Theory of Spirits

Ling Lun, also known as Ling Lun, is a figure in ancient folklore in China. According to legend, he was a music official who managed the temple in ancient times and presided over the sacrifice for Xuanyuan Huangdi. It is the ancestor of China's invention of Lu-made music in ancient times, that is, the ancestor of China's music (Lv Chunqiu Midsummer Ji).

According to legend, Longgongshan, Lingshan, Busan and Sanjiya in Leping (now called Luoping) in Laishui County were once the places where Linglun lived and lived for many years. Among them, Leping is the place where Linglun trains sacrificial musicians and tests the accuracy of clocks and watches. The bell pit (commonly known as bell pit) on the third cliff in Busan is the place where Linglun casts bells, and the waste residue discarded during metal smelting is scattered around the pit.

Some people say that the seven notation symbols of modern music originated from China, and most likely originated from the temperament formulated in Lunlun.

Linglun has made laws.

According to Lu Chunqiu's Ancient Music, the Yellow Emperor ordered Ling Lun to play a song. Linglun simulates the birdsong in nature, and selects bamboo tubes with symmetrical inner cavity and cavity wall to make twelve tones. Among them, there are six rhythms of male birds' calls, which are called yang rhythms, and there are also six rhythms of female birds' calls, which are called yin rhythms. This legend is called "Linglun Method".

At the same time, ancient music also recorded another legend of Linglun, that is, Linglun created music. When naming music and dance in history books, only the music and dance contents of clan society before the Yellow Emperor are listed, and they are named after the clan. Later, from clan society to patriarchal society, Ling Lun created "Fairy Pool", and then music and dance had a special name.

3. Textual research on the writing rules of Ling Lun.

First of all, Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals is a well-compiled, well-arranged pre-Qin classic in China, which has hardly been lost in its circulation for more than two thousand years. Moreover, the author's writing time is very clear, and there are few objections. The credibility of Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals lies in Linglun's "listening to the phoenix". The credibility of this legend has laid a solid foundation.

Secondly, many people think that "listening to the voice of the Phoenix" is not credible, but in August 1942, Ms. Deng Yuan from the Conservatory of Music of Fujian Normal University heard an unknown bird in the Taoist Temple of Yuanming Palace on Qingcheng Mountain in guanxian, western Sichuan, and shouted out the following musical words that conform to the laws of nature.

Mr. Yang, a famous music historian, is also a believer in Ling Lun's composition method. Mr. Yang not only made a credit report on the text of "The Law of Linglun", but also tried to give a rational explanation to the myth description of "Listen to the voice of the Phoenix and learn twelve laws", and looked forward to the relevant evidence from zoologists, which showed that Mr. Yang was convinced of this.

Li, on the other hand, followed the narrative of "The Yellow Emperor ordered Ling Lun to make laws" in Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals and Ancient Music, and made a practical exploration of blowing law and making laws. And made 13 laws on its own according to law. This proves that Ling Lun, as a music official, had made and perfected the twelve-tone system in China as early as the Yellow Emperor's era five thousand years ago.
