In the 1920s, the society was in turmoil, warlords were fighting for years, the people were in dire straits, and the Taoist profession was becoming increasingly neglected. When Abing was in his thirties, he lost his sight in both eyes due to illness. Due to poverty and illness, A Bing was forced to embark on a wandering life as a busker. As a blind folk artist, A Bing experienced the misery and suffering of the world and was bullied and humiliated by the powerful. The pipa music "Big Waves on the Sand" and the erhu music "Er Fountain Reflects the Moon" and "Cold Spring Wind" he left behind reveal his majesty towards life, his struggle against darkness, and his yearning for the future.

Source of the melody:

There are different legends about the origin of the melody of this piece of music. He himself said, "Maybe he learned it from Taoism", "Maybe he learned it from monks" "Come here", "Maybe you heard it from the street", after checking, it was found that this song does not exist in the Taoist music list, and the "Big Waves on the Sand" in the ensemble music list has no similarity with this song. The melody of the first section of the piece is similar to the melody of the first piece of Guangdong music "Three Pools Reflecting the Moon". It is very likely that Hua Yanjun composed this piece based on the tones he is familiar with. In this piece of music, there are both soft and long melody, strong and short tones, and the ups and downs of the music, which makes people think of it and give people an endless aftertaste. Some people say that this is a true portrayal of Abing's life.
