Chapter 581: Climbing Yellow Mountain
The next day, Tang Huairen began to make ink, many ink manufacturers produce ink, the process and materials used, very simple, not as good as ink ingots, but will also produce some high-quality ink according to the needs of users. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Of course, because the ink needs convenience, the general user does not have too high requirements for quality, and has no patience to study ink, and the ink ingot is not only a book and painting supplies, but also a work of art born in traditional Chinese culture.
Ink ingots for ink grinding, users will be according to their own writing and painting plans, and reasonable ink grinding, basically how much to grind, will not leave too much, as for the ink, in a liquid state for a long time in the bottle, in order to prevent precipitation and corruption, must add some electrolytes and preservatives to the ink.
In order to achieve the aroma of the ink ingot, some fragrances will be added to it, which will more or less affect the quality of the ink, and for the sake of cost, some manufacturers even change the animal glue to a cheaper synthetic glue.
According to the experiments of many people, there is a big difference between the effect of ink produced in the world and ink ingots on rice paper.
Especially after drawing and writing on rice paper, the ink on the ink ingot can be stored for a long time without any changes, and can even prevent moth-eaters, as for the ink, it is different, after a long period of storage, it may stink.
When he was a child, Zhou Yu had such an experience, the homework written with pen and ink in the past, after being placed for a period of time, when it was opened again, it would emit a little smell, even if it was the ink produced by the best ink factory now, it would stink after being placed for a long time.
However, this time, the ink made by Tang Huairen is not for sale, but to experiment with the effect of ink grass juice, so the materials needed will be as the same as the ink ingots as much as possible, so as to be able to experiment with the best effect, after all, some materials are not suitable for adding to the ink.
Due to the characteristics of the ink liquid, bone glue does not need much, because they do not make ink clay, but need a little viscosity, if too much material is added, then the production will be very viscous.
In less than a day, Tang Huairen made a small amount of ink, this time just for experiments, so he tried to make less in order to save ink juice.
Of the ink he made, he only dripped a little bit of ink grass juice, which was less than half a drop, and even then, in terms of the amount of ink, these juices were more than ink ingots.
The ink made by adding ink grass juice also exudes a unique aroma, which makes everyone smile and be a little eager to try.
Before, they wanted to get ink ingots, so they put the time of the experiment until next year, but now the ink produced can fulfill their wish ahead of schedule.
Then, Tang Huairen put the prepared ink into a container, took Zhou Yu and a few people to an office in the factory, poured the ink into a small vessel, put it on the desk, and then took out some high-quality rice paper, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, you can try it first, and see how your ink grass juice works." ”
Lin Xiuyuan and others also looked at Zhou Yu with a smile, talking about the charm of Haoran righteousness in calligraphy, none of them can compare to Zhou Yu, those Haoran righteousness can make the ornamental and artistic nature of calligraphy improve a lot.
"In that case, it is my duty to do so. Zhou Yu nodded slightly, picked out a suitable brush from the pen holder on the desk, and then lightly dipped it in some ink, and began to write calligraphy, this time, he wrote a poem related to ink.
The name of the poem is "Momei", and its author is a famous poet in the Yuan Dynasty, calligrapher and painter Wang Mian, "My family washes the inkstone pond tree, and the flowers bloom with light ink marks. ”
This is a poem by Wang Mian about the plum blossoms he painted, describing the beautiful and fragrant plum blossoms, outstanding, not only reflecting the style of the plum blossoms he painted, but also reflecting the author's noble taste and indifferent mind to fame and fortune.
When he was writing with ink, Zhou Yu showed a hint of surprise on his face, but he calmed down instantly and continued to write the next verses.
At this time, Lin Xiuyuan and the others were also standing by and watching, and they were not too close, Rao was so, they also saw the handwriting written by Zhou Yu on the rice paper, which was very smooth, and it still contained that heroic righteousness.
After the whole poem was written, Zhou Yu left his knowledge, stamped his seal, put the pen on the vessel next to him, and looked at his calligraphy.
Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan and a few people hurriedly walked over, their eyes were on the calligraphy, when they saw this complete calligraphy, their faces showed a different color, they had watched Zhou Yu's calligraphy more than once or twice, and they all had a calligraphy in their hands.
Especially during the period when they went out, they could see calligraphy every morning, which made them very familiar with the calligraphy written by Zhou Yu, and now this calligraphy written with ink grass juice seemed to be more fluent than what they saw yesterday morning, and the overall feeling was much better.
Moreover, the handwriting written by this ink is comparable to that of a high-grade ink ingot, and at the same time, it exudes a special fragrance of ink grass juice, which makes people feel refreshed and happy, and at the same time, that heroic righteousness has become more intense.
"This uses ink grass juice, and the calligraphy written does look a little different, Xiaoyu, how do you feel. After looking at the calligraphy for a while, Lin Xiuyuan asked.
"Lin Lao, this ink made by adding ink grass juice does make people feel a sense of fluency when writing, which is better than the ink ingots you gave me before, and the fragrance of ink grass can also keep people's spirit concentrated, and the artistic conception of calligraphy will be improved. Zhou Yu said his feelings when he was writing.
Sure enough, it is a unique thing that grows in the Xianxia world, just as the pavilion master of Wenyuan Pavilion said, adding ink grass juice, the quality of the ink produced will be better, and this experiment can be said to be a complete success.
"Oh, there are so many benefits, it's just ink, and the ink ingots we make are definitely better. Lin Xiuyuan said with a different color.
"No, I can't help but write a calligraphy when Xiao Yu said, come, old Tang, help me move Xiao Yu's calligraphy to the table next to me to dry, I want to write a painting to try the feeling." At this time, Nie Wenshan said impatiently.
Tang Huairen and Xu Minghua helped move the calligraphy to the table next to them, and Zhou Yu's feeling can only be reproduced in them if he tries it.
Nie Wenshan lifted the brush, dipped it in ink, and then wrote on the rice paper, his face also showed a touch of surprise, and after writing, he couldn't help laughing, "This ink is really as Xiao Yu said, when writing, it is far smoother than the ink I used before, you see, is there any difference in the calligraphy I wrote." ”
Hearing this, Tang Huairen and the others all came around, Xu Minghua looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but nodded, "It has really improved a lot, not only the fluency in the handwriting, but also the kind of rhyme, it has also become rich, the effect of this ink grass juice is simply amazing." ”
Then, Lin Xiuyuan and Xu Minghua also wrote a calligraphy one by one, their faces showed surprise, Tang Huairen laughed heartily, "The ink-making technology has not been improved for a long time, but I didn't expect that now the ink grass juice is showing such a powerful effect, just less than a drop of juice, this is simply the biggest gospel in the calligraphy and painting world." ”
"The ink ingots made of this ink grass juice are definitely far superior to other ink ingots, which not only makes the writer write very smoothly and comfortably, but also improves the level of the writer for a long time. ”
He is from an ink-making family, and has been dealing with ink for most of his life, and has been studying how to improve the quality of ink, but there has been no big gain, including other ink factories, and now, with the addition of ink grass juice, there has finally been a huge improvement, how can he not be ecstatic.
"Haha, Old Man Tang, when Xiaoyu has more ink grass juice, your ink factory is really going to be famous, and when the time comes, it will be like Xianweiju, and many people will flock to get such an ink ingot. Nie Wenshan said with a laugh on the side.
Although there are many people competing for the bamboo flute he made, ancient musical instruments and calligraphy and painting are also a kind of traditional Chinese culture, but in the whole of China, there are many fewer people who learn ancient music than those who learn calligraphy and painting.
"Then I'll talk about it then, and then I'll experiment with the right amount of ink grass juice to make writing more comfortable. Tang Huairen said with a smile on his face, there are also several factories that produce traditional ink in She County, and two of them have even built their family since the Qing Dynasty.
The quality of the ink they produce is the same, but the marketing methods are a little worse.
And his father and grandfather's lifelong wish was to make the ink produced by their family the first choice of all literati, and now, this wish can finally be realized.
"Old Tang, then you have to hurry up and make it, next year it can come out with the first batch of ink, and then we can use it for writing and painting." Xu Minghua said with a smile, the materials in the ink are not as many as ink ingots, and the production process is even worse than 108,000 miles, so the effect will be even better.
"Don't worry, you can experiment in a few days, and then make all the remaining ink grass juice into ink ingots. Tang Huairen smiled, he was also looking forward to the day when these ink ingots were dried and could be used.
Subsequently, everyone talked for a while, Lin Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Since the experiment of ink grass juice has been successful, then we should also leave, this trip has taken almost seven or eight days, tomorrow after breakfast, we will go to Huangshan, and then give Xiaoyu some time to climb the mountain, and then leave the day after tomorrow, you see how it goes." ”
"Brother Lin, just do as you say. Xu Minghua and Nie Wenshan naturally have no opinion.
"Well, I'm really reluctant to let you go. Tang Huairen shook his head and sighed.
"Haha, you are reluctant to bring Xiaoyu's fairy fruit bar. Nie Wenshan saw through his inner thoughts at a glance.
Zhou Yu laughed, "Old Tang, when we leave, I will leave you all the fairy fruit wine and spiritual rice we brought, which should be enough for you to eat for a while, and I will send some more after a while." ”
"I suddenly wish you were going to leave quickly, and it was better to leave today, and not eat dinner. Hearing this, Tang Huairen's eyes lit up and said jokingly.
Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing, "In this case, it seems that we are going to have a good meal today, Lao Nie, you are not welcome at night." ”
The next morning, Zhou Yu and a few people had breakfast, and went directly to Huangshan, after arriving, they stayed in the hotel arranged by Tang Huairen, and then, Zhou Yu said hello to Lin Xiuyuan and drove to Huangshan Scenic Area.
At this time, it was only more than ten o'clock in the morning, it can be said that Zhou Yu had enough time to climb the Yellow Mountain, if you hike from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, it will take at least about five hours, and if you take the cable car, you also need to climb for another two hours to reach the top of the mountain.
Basically, people who travel to Huangshan, except for those who are particularly in a hurry, will stay on it for one night, and then enjoy the scenery of the rising sun in Huangshan.
At the foot of Huangshan Mountain, Zhou Yu found a parking lot, parked the car, carried a backpack, and began to hike to Huangshan.
In terms of his current physical fitness, climbing Huangshan is simply trivial, and if he uses all his strength, the time to reach the top of the mountain will be shortened by several times.
However, this time I came mainly to enjoy the scenery, and there was plenty of time, Zhou Yu did not plan to climb the mountain quickly, but to browse the scenery slowly, so as not to waste this trip, fast mountaineering, only to enjoy a little scenery in the morning.
Huangshan is not one of the five mountains, but one of the three mountains, basically these three mountains refer to the tourist attractions, the other two are Lushan and Yandang Mountain, there is also a saying that the three mountains are the myths and legends of Penglai, Abbot Mountain, Yingzhou three immortal mountains.
At this time, it has entered the winter, and the Yellow Mountain also presents a different beauty, but it has not yet snowed, and if it snows, the snow scene will be even more beautiful.
Zhou Yu went up the mountain to choose the route is the back mountain, the front mountain is majestic and steep, the mountain is amazing, if you hike the mountain, the physical strength consumed is also greater, and the back mountain is the essence of the scenery of the Yellow Mountain, the beauty is peculiar, there are many viewing platforms, he has to catch a plane tomorrow, so the speed of going down the mountain will be very fast, take advantage of the time now, naturally want to enjoy the beautiful scenery more.
Along the way, he stopped and stopped, occasionally taking pictures of some beautiful scenery with his mobile phone, and then continued on his way, looking unusually relaxed, at this time he was also wearing a hat and glasses, and was wearing a winter coat, but he was not noticed.
