“兼長翰墨世俱钦，一袭征袍万里心，艳说胭脂鲜血代，谁知草檄有金音。”1944 年， 郭沫若在重庆参观明末女英雄秦良玉文物展时， 挥毫写下了《咏秦良玉诗四首》，这即是其中之一。

在这首诗中，郭沫若作了一个注释，“石柱有金音石，可作砚，传秦良玉草檄用之。”

意思是说石柱县有一种金音石，可以制作成砚台，传说秦良玉就曾经用金音石砚来草拟过檄文。

金音石砚的来头可不小，它与重庆的夔砚、峡石砚并称“巴渝三大名砚”。由于历史上金音石砚制作时断时续，流传于世的精品更是凤毛麟角，渐渐地不为人熟知。

不过，在古砚收藏家、鉴赏家汪海的家里，我们有幸一睹金音石砚的风采，了解到金音石砚背后的诸多故事。

"Admired by the public， she's so adept at fancy writing; Wearing a coat armor， her heart is concerted with the homeland far away; The welling blood is her makeup; Who ever knows that she once drafted official calls with the gold-tone inkstone." Guo Moruo wrote the "Four Odes to Qin Liangyu" in 1944 when visiting the exhibition of Qin Liangyu， a female general of the late Ming Dynasty， in Chongqing. This poems is one of the four odes.

Guo Moruo made a note for this poem： "There are gold-tone stones in Shizhu County which can be used as inkstones. Legend has it that Qin Liangyu， a well-renowed female general in the Ming dynasty， used

in Bayu". Due to the intermittent production of gold-tone inkstone in history， the fine works circulated in the world are exceptionally rare， so they gradually became unknown.

Fortunately， at the house of Wang Hai， an inkstone collector， we had the honor to see the elegant demeanour of gold-tone inkstone and learn the stories behind it.

砚 中 传 奇 Legendary Inkstone

汪海家里，各种砚台琳琅满目，都是他收藏的川渝地方砚。

其中一方收藏桌上，几十余方墨黑色砚台在灯光照射下，散发出细腻的光泽。“这就是金音石砚，砚石产于重庆石柱凤凰乡砚台湾。”汪海拿起一方砚台，示意我们用手轻轻敲

打，果然有铿锵之声，如金石入耳。“这种石头声音清脆，所以被叫做金音石，也有叫金云音石的。”

汪海是安徽人，十几年前，因工作调动来到重庆。在川渝古玩市场发现金音石砚后，他爱不释手，开始了对金音石砚的收藏。他自豪地说，他收藏的金音石砚已有 30 余方，“金音石古砚典型形制、精品大多收藏在我手上。”

关于金音石砚，石柱至今还流传着一个传说。相传诗仙李白流放夜郎时，曾在石柱万安隐居。……
