Chapter 297: The finishing touch
"Gambling, I don't know what Elder Liang wants to do?" Gong Yichen looked at Elder Liang in front of him suspiciously.
"Let's bet on the simplest, and I'd like to see you draw a picture of the tiger descending the mountain like before. A hint of pride flashed in Liang Lao's eyes, as long as he could watch him paint completely, although only once, but if he could learn this technique of using the brush, then he would definitely be able to go further.
For such a person who has been immersed in calligraphy for most of his life, it is very difficult to get another improvement in himself.
"If that's the case, then I think it's okay to make a bet, but since it's said to be a gamble, then there should be some bets, otherwise the gamble is incomplete. Gong Yichen looked at Liang Lao with a smile.
Liang Lao laughed and said with a smile, "This is natural, after all, since it is a gambling game, then there must be some bets, if I lose, then I will worship you as a teacher, if you lose, I just want your tiger to go down the mountain, how about it?"
"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Liang Lao at this point, I've already given away the tiger descending the mountain, so I ask Liang Lao to change the bet. Gong Yichen smiled, a trace of unknown looks flashed in his eyes.
However, Gong Yichen is indeed not wrong, this tiger descending map was given to Father Lan by himself, if he took this tiger descending map as a bet, then he really couldn't say anything.
"Since Xiaoyou's tiger descending the mountain has been given to someone else, then the old man has the courage to take your new work as a bet, what do you think?" said Liang Lao with a smile.
"Since Liang Lao looks up to the kid so much, the kid is no longer hypocritical, but the bet still has to be changed, who in the world does not know Liang Lao's status in my country's calligraphy industry, it is like the existence of Beidou Taishan, how can the boy be able to make Liang Lao worship me as a teacher, we just communicate about it, and I will give this work to Liang Lao regardless of victory or defeat. ”
Gong Yichen said with a serious face, he couldn't see the domineering look on his face at all, and even Liang Lao couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Is there such a trick?
"Listen to Xiaoyou's meaning, our bet contract is just nullified?" Liang Lao was a little misty by Gong Yichen, what does it mean that no matter whether he wins or loses, he will hand over the work to himself in the end, and he doesn't have to worship him as a teacher anymore if he loses, it seems to mean so.
"What Liang Lao said is extremely true, how can literati like us be the same as those vulgar people? Gong Yichen said with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression.
If it weren't for Xie Tian's familiarity with Gong Yichen's character, he would have been unable to help but go up and give him a kick and let him know why the flowers are so popular.
"Okay, let's choose a day instead of hitting the sun, so I will ask Master Gong to paint here, and let my two unsuccessful apprentices know what it means to have people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky. Liang Lao said with a smile.
However, Liang Lao's words made the two people around Liang Lao not very happy, especially the girl next to Liang Lao, who grew up with various masters since she was a child, and under the influence of her ears and eyes, at least she has not met someone who can be better than herself, especially one of her own age.
"Okay, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, so I'll borrow Mr. Lan's study first. Gong Yichen looked at Father Lan and said.
A person who loves calligraphy so much, if there is no study at home, no pen, ink, paper and inkstone, then Gong Yichen will not believe it.
"It's my pleasure to show you the way. "Father Lan is now smiling and the corners of his mouth are almost able to get the root of his ears, not only can he watch Gong Yichen's painting up close, but he may also see Liang Lao's painting.
Soon the group came to a relatively remote study, the layout of this study is very simple, only a table, a few pieces of rice paper, and some calligraphy.
"Please don't dislike that there are fewer things here, if you still need anything, just say it, and I will definitely prepare it in the shortest possible time. Father Lan smiled.
Gong Yichen just waved his hand, and stood directly in front of the table, looking closely at some of the brushes on the table with his eyes.
The so-called wolf hair is that the brush is relatively hard, and the painting has a texture, but there is not much ink stored at one time, and it is easy to dry the pen.
Gong Yichen took a deep breath, soaked the brush directly in ink, and directly began to paint on rice paper.
After seeing Gong Yichen's movements, the two people beside Liang Lao outlined a sneer on the corner of their mouths.
"Don't you try the feel of this brush, don't look at the current density of ink, and don't know the feel of this kind of rice paper, just start drawing directly? Isn't this a joke?" said Xiao Zhang's tone full of disdain.
In his eyes, these should be preparations to be made before painting, but this person is not prepared at all, in his eyes this is completely nonsense.
Only Liang Lao next to him watched Gong Yichen's movements tightly, the process of starting the pen, moving the pen, and collecting the pen, and even the process of dipping the ink.
On the other hand, Gong Yichen, now the whole person is very relaxed, and he can be regarded as a master of art, every time he puts down the pen, he does not see the slightest mud and water, and the pattern on the rice paper and the previous picture of the tiger descending the mountain are not the same style at all.
This time Gong Yichen changed his previous style, this time the work is actually a bamboo, but it is precisely because of the choice of bamboo that those dry ink places do not look so stiff, but everything is so natural.
"Amazing, it's really a hero out of a teenager, it seems that I'm really old. Liang Lao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The world belongs to these young people after all." ”、
The two people next to Liang Lao are also wide-eyed now, and they can just see the painting in front of Gong Yichen at this angle, although it looks plain now, but every time Gong Yichen drops a stroke now, there will be a touch of charm on this painting, and it is nothing more than the finishing touch.
"This ...... Teacher, how did he do it?" The girl next to Liang Lao looked at Gong Yichen who was painting in a daze, her eyes full of incredulity.
Liang Lao could only sigh, "I told you a long time ago, you must know that there are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the sky, no matter what time it is, you must have a heart of awe, and you must not blind your eyes!"
"For example, the Gong Yichen in front of you is much better than you. ”
