Chapter 63

The white-haired old man walked down the stairs slowly, and when he saw Gong Yang, he asked with an easy-going smile on his face, "Young man, are you also interested in calligraphy?"

Gong Yang shook his head and came back to his senses, and when he saw the old man, he smiled embarrassedly and didn't know how to respond.

The old man stepped forward and said with a smile, "Young man, feel free, just treat this as your own home, you saved me before, and it can be called a life-saving grace in ancient times, so you don't have to be polite, just feel free." ”

Gong Yang smiled and said, "I just did one thing that I had to do, if Uncle Ma hadn't called me today, I would have almost forgotten about it."

"Sit, sit, sit and say" After the old man asked Gong Yang to sit down, he sat aside and said with a smile, "There are not many people who are willing to save people on the street in this era, not to mention that I am still an old man, when you saved me, were you not afraid of being falsely accused?"

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but my conscience is a little unbearable, and I can only gamble."

"Hahahaha, I didn't think that you are really a real person, young man, this is a bit similar to my Ma Shuo, just now when I went downstairs, I saw that you kept looking at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, are you interested in this?"

Gong Yang nodded and replied, "Well, I'm thinking that Dong Qichang's cursive script can't be real, right?"

Speaking of calligraphy and painting, Ma Shuo immediately became interested and asked, "Young man, how do you see that it is cursive from Dong Qichang's hand?"

How can Gong Yang understand this, this is the data that Teacher Cang just transmitted to his mind, after hearing Ma Shuo's question, Gong Yang had no choice but to put Teacher Cang's words back and forth as they were, "Dong Qichang's calligraphy integrates the calligraphy styles of the Jin, Tang and Song families, and is self-contained. The stroke garden is beautiful and elegant, plain and simple. And with the pen fine, always maintain the front, there are few clumsy stagnation of the pen, in the chapter, the word and the word, the line and the line only see, the branch layout, comfortable and symmetrical, the force to chase the ancient law, the ink is also very particular, dry and wet, wonderful, plus Dong Qichang's cursive is particularly prominent, all it is not difficult to see that this is Dong Qichang's calligraphy. ”

Ma Shuo and Ma Yunlin's father and son stared wide-eyed, and they didn't speak for a long time.

Seeing this, Gong Yang subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"

Ma Shuo immediately shook his head and said excitedly, "That's right, that's right, this is indeed Dong Qichang's calligraphy, what I never expected is that you are so young and have such a deep knowledge of calligraphy, have you studied it before?"

"No, I'm just a little interested in calligraphy, I have a good memory, and a lot of things are seen in books, so I don't have any attainments."

Ma Shuo pointed to another calligraphy and painting on the wall and smiled, "You can take a look at this one again, this is what your Uncle Ma just bought from an antique dealer a few days ago, and it cost a lot of money, you can give it a review."

Gong Yang set his eyes on the calligraphy and painting, and at the same time, he also had some more relevant knowledge in his mind.

Ma Shuo on the side saw Gong Yang frowning, and immediately asked, "What's wrong, is there something wrong?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this one should be...... Fake!" Gong Yang replied unceremoniously.

"Impossible! This painting cost a lot of money, and it was specially bought for the old man's collection, how could it be ......" Ma Yunlin didn't finish speaking, but was stopped by Ma Shuo, "Young man, you don't have to worry about it."

Gong Yang nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be Huaisu's 'wild grass' work, since you know calligraphy, then you should also know that Huaisu has always been strong and powerful with a pen, so that the turn is like a ring, unrestrained and smooth, in one go, later Tang Lu Zong's "Reading Commentary" said 'Huaisu cursive, aid to electricity, change at will, and Song Zhu Changwen's "Continuation of the Book" on the evaluation of Huaisu's cursive writing' If a strong man draws a sword, his spirit is moving', but you look at this calligraphy and painting, although the arrogance of cursive writing is there, but whether it is from the artistic conception or the stroke of the pen, it is too far from Huaisu's own handwriting, which should be copied by later generations. ”

"It's... This... Is it true or false?" Ma Yunlin was surprised.

Gong Yang shrugged his shoulders and did not speak.

After Ma Shuo was stunned for a while, he actually laughed heartily and said three times, "Okay, Yunlin, you go and take down that calligraphy and painting, the most taboo thing for our Ma family to be in business for decades is to cheat, if you meet someone who wants to sell calligraphy and painting to you in the future, you don't want to spend money in vain, you can't see anything as a layman." ”

Ma Yunlin hesitated for a few seconds, but he stepped forward and took down the pair of words.

"Young man, you have studied calligraphy so well, you must be able to write your own handwriting well, right?"

Gong Yang was stunned, although his words can be seen in the past, but at best they can only see the past, and if he really wants to have a relationship with calligraphy, there is still a gap of 108,000 miles.

Seeing this, Ma Shuo continued: "There happens to be still ground ink in my study that has not been used up, do you want to go up and write two words and give it a try?"

Just when Gong Yang was about to refuse, the notification sound that had not appeared for a long time finally appeared in his mind.

"Exciting task: 'Write a calligraphy and get the old man's approval', the task rewards 100 points, the deadline is one hour, and 100 points will be deducted for failure of the task. ”

"Tip: Do you spend 100 points for beginner calligraphy?"

Gong Yang replied angrily, "Teacher Cang, you don't use up my points and don't call it a day, do you?" I have to deduct 100 points if I can't complete this task, and I have to deduct 100 points if I exchange for elementary calligraphy, is it interesting for you to make this show?"

An emotionless machine voice in my head "Interesting"

Gong Yang rolled his eyes, "Forget it, if you don't exchange it, you will only deduct points, it's better to redeem it to complete the task, and if you can't say it, you can get a task reward of 100 points, Teacher Cang, exchange it."

……

"Redemption Successful"

Ma Shuo saw that Gong Yang was stunned, so he shouted in a low voice, "Young man, young man?"

"Ah...... Oh, yes, I'll be ugly."

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, you come with me and I'll take you to the study"

"Good"

Ma Yunlin had no choice but to help Ma Shuo up to the second floor again, and Gong Yang followed closely behind.

The second floor is decorated in an open style, with no walls and doors, only a few columns supporting the ceiling, and as far as the eye can see, the most you can see are the bookshelves and the books on the shelves, which makes Miyayo feel like he has come to a small library.

Ma Yunlin helped Ma Shuo to a desk, the desk was also wooden, Gong Yang couldn't see what the material was, he only felt that it was very valuable, and there were four treasures of the study room on the table - pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and there was really ground ink on the inkstone.

"Come on, young man, how do you see what I write these four words?" Ma Shuo smiled as he pointed to the four words 'Ma to Success' written on the rice paper.

Gong Yang stepped forward, ostensibly observing carefully, but in fact, "Teacher Cang, quickly find me some adjectives"

“……”

"Well, the old man's kung fu is enough to be called a hall, the use of pen and ink is very smooth and sufficient, and it seems to be simple and unpretentious."

"Haha, there is vision, there is vision, I have lived for so long, and I can only take these four words"

Ma Yunlin on the side sighed with emotion, "How long has it been since the old man has been so happy"

"Come on, come on, Gongyang Xiaoyou, don't patronize it, you can also write a few words for me to appreciate and appreciate......"

Gong Yang said modestly, "I don't dare to say anything about appreciation, then I will be ugly"

Gong Yang walked to the center of the desk, did not take the wool pen that had been dipped in ink, but took off a wolf hair, and after sucking up the ink in the research platform in a bohemian manner, he wrote four big characters on the rice paper - "Yima Pingchuan"!

After Gong Yang finished writing, he put the wolf on the inkstone, and after looking at it, he felt quite satisfied, so he took a step forward and smiled, "Old man, what do you think?"

Ma Shuo's face was stunned, and he pointed to the four big characters of 'Yima Pingchuan' and said in surprise, "Gongyang Xiaoyou, you... You really haven't practiced calligraphy?"

After Ma Yunlin saw the four words, he also stared at Gong Yang, with a shocked expression.

"I haven't deliberately practiced, I'm just interested, Ma Lao, can you read these words I wrote?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Your skills in these few words are enough to rival my calligraphy practice for half a lifetime!"

"Prompt 'Write a piece of calligraphy and get the old man's approval' task is completed, get a reward of 100 points, save points, and excite the music exchange shop ......"

Gong Yang smiled on his face, "Old man, don't lift me up, how can it be as good as you say, I'm just writing blindly." ”

"Haha, Gongyang Xiaoyou, you are too modest" Ma Shuo said, and did not forget to instruct, "Yunlin, you go and let Aunt Mei fry a few good dishes, I am so happy to have a few cups with my little friend today." ”

Ma Yunlin's face was happy, "Okay, I'll go"

After Ma Yunlin went downstairs, Ma Shuo continued to smile and said, "Gongyang Xiaoyou, come on, come, I'll take you to see my collection of books in the past few years, and introduce it by the way." ”

"Good"
