Chapter 253: Birthday Wishes
The three of them turned right into another alley according to their words, and the three big characters of Xiliu Lane were written at the mouth of the alley, and the four of them walked forward on the pavement made of stone slabs. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the distance, there was a "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The time has reached the fourth watch, all the way from the south, and there is no one on the road. In the dead of night, there are only a few rooms around that are lit up and the sound of dogs barking.
Du Shisan glanced around and said with a smile: "It's just the fourth watch now, follow me back to the other courtyard, and you can still have some time to sleep." Brother Zhongdao wants to see the sun tomorrow, so it shouldn't be a problem. ”
After a pause, Xuan asked Xu Ziling again: "Ling Shao, how is the situation now?" ”
Xu Ziling pondered for a long time and said, "No one has followed for the time being." ”
Du 13 nodded and said, "Follow me!" Suddenly, he climbed up the tiled surface of the house on the left, and walked along the ridge of the roof, and after a while he landed in one of the rather secluded courtyards.
Above the gate, there is a horizontal plaque with four big characters written on the "Fanchuan Courtyard", Du Mu said lightly: "There are three days to be the autumn festival, here is a courtyard where I studied in Luoyang, except for me and a few entourage, no one knows, Zhongdao, the two little brothers can live here temporarily recently, as a foothold, never worry about the visit of evil guests." ”
Du Shisan's kindness, earnestness and sincerity, Zhou Ning felt that it was not easy to refuse, of course, there was no need for him to refuse such things, so he nodded and agreed. Looking at the four words "Fanchuan Courtyard", he was slightly surprised, no wonder Du Mu was called Du Fanchuan in later generations, he thought it was a place name at first, but it turned out to be because of this.
Du Thirteen didn't stop, all the way forward, and pushed the door open.
This house is extremely quiet, a few bamboos are planted in the middle of the yard, the surrounding pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, quiet and quiet under the moonlight, the scenery is moving.
Kou Zhong was speechless: "Brother Du...... It's a rich man. ”
Du Mu smiled: "It's just a blessing for the ancestors." ”
The courtyard is divided into two entrances, with a patio in the middle. The four of them walked through the corridor and talked about martial arts anecdotes for a while, and Du Shisan pushed open the door of a room: "You will live here tonight, and tomorrow's things will be talked about tomorrow, see you walking." ”
It was originally a bedroom, and on the painting table were placed the four treasures of the study room and the rice paper for painting.
The four walls are hung with calligraphy and paintings, full of the atmosphere of the study.
"Well, Brother Du is a good handwriter."
Du 13 said with a smile: "Mentioning this in front of Brother Zhou makes me a little embarrassed. ”
"Oh?" Zhou Ning looked at Du Shisan, "Brother Du, please speak directly." ”
Du Mu sighed and said: "In a few days it will be my grandfather's seventieth birthday banquet, his old man's favorite thing is painting, calligraphy is just that, I really don't know anything about painting, my second brother invited Wu Daozi to paint, this-I can only ask Zhongdao to help." ”
"Okay, I'll give you the painting in a few days." In his previous life, as a master of calligraphy and painting, Zhou Ning had inscribed the words and painted paintings, and it was not a big deal to draw a birthday picture, so he immediately responded to it. Besides, being able to spell a painting with Wu Daozi is also something he dreams of.
"Then thank Brother Zhou first." Du Mu was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to the end.
Zhou Ning said this, he had already made a plan in his heart, and when the time came, he would turn on his firepower and draw a picture of the immortal's life.
Soon after, probably in order to prepare for the autumn festival, Du Shisan sat for a while, then said goodbye and left, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling didn't take long to support it, and fell asleep groggyly, but Zhou Ning didn't feel sleepy at all, and sat cross-legged in front of the painting case, this time the harvest of crossing was far greater than imagined, but the danger was the same. A piece of the Heshi Bi completely changed the fate of all three of them, and while making great strides in martial arts, it also brought them countless opponents.
It's okay for him, if his life is in danger, he can go back to the modern era through the space-time gate at any time, but Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling may not be able to, even if he is willing to take them back at the risk of exposure, but who knows if there will be problems.
If he could do it all over again, would he still steal it?
He really doesn't know!
After sitting for a while, Zhou Ning spread out the rice paper, lifted the brush, dipped it in ink, and after condensing into the Palace of Literature, a trace of cyan Wen Qi was clearly visible on the brush.
After a little thought, he decided to use his own technique to copy Chen Hongshou's "Hundred Longevity Picture Scroll".
Chen Hongshou, a famous calligrapher, painter and poet in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, was known for his paintings throughout his life, especially figure paintings. The torso of the painted figure is majestic, the lines of the clothes are fine and round, and the achievement of his figure painting is called "the strength of the qi, the super-uplifting, still above Qiu Ying and Tang Yin, and there is no such brush and ink for three hundred years." ”
After a moment, he moved his wrist and brush, and a vivid-looking Antarctic fairy appeared at the end of the drawing paper. The pen moved sharply, and after a while, a lively white deer appeared next to the Antarctic fairy Weng, the tip of the pen moved horizontally to the right, and the cyan literary atmosphere continued to move on the paper, and a mountain peak appeared at the other end of the paper, the strange rocks were craggy, and a pine tree hung between the peaks, which was magnificent, and the pen stroke could not be changed.
At the same moment, Shi Zhixuan exhaled a breath and slowly walked down the Xinzhong Bridge, with no sadness or joy in his eyes; Yuan 13 searched along the Luo River, but finally returned in vain; In the Fanghua Pavilion, a woman with a light veil and a graceful figure sat there, and Wan Wan stood in front of her.
……
On the seventh day of September in the eleventh year of the Great Cause, Luoyang City.
The sound of pounding clothes came from the bank of the Yi River in the distance, and Kou Zhong stretched his waist before he opened his eyes and sat up.
Xu Ziling got up early, stood on the edge of the window, and looked at the stone arch bridge across the river in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhou Ning was closing his eyes and recuperating, as if he was unaware of what was going on outside his body, and there was a long picture scroll spread out on the table.
Kou Zhong jumped up and moved to Xu Ziling's side.
It was drizzling outside, and the entire banks of the Luo River were sunk into a white expanse.
Kou Zhong took a few breaths of the misty air in the early morning, overlooking the misty scene near and far, and sighed: "It's so good! We're still alive and we've slept well, hah. “
At this time, Zhou Ning opened his eyes and said with a smile: "You are awake!" ”
also stretched his waist, the bones of his whole body crackled, and he said lightly: "Today I want to go back to the inn to see if I can borrow momentum from Yang Guang, what about you?" What are you going to do? ”
Kou Zhong said abruptly: "I'm going to see Wang Shichong, heh, I reached an agreement with him yesterday, he will help us tide over the difficulties, and I will help him deal with Zhai Rang." ”
Xu Ziling was stunned and said, "What did he help?" Oh - there was no one on the street last night, as the city guard of Luoyang, he has this right, could it be that Wang Shichong, the old boy, arranged martial law? ”
Kou Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "In this way, that old fox didn't trust me at all, as if he didn't think our enemy was convenient enough. “
Xu Ziling suddenly looked at Zhou Ning and sighed: "I guessed a possibility that can explain why Wang Shichong did this." “
Kou Zhong was shocked, looked at Xu Ziling, and said, "Say it quickly!" “
Xu Ziling sighed: "Wang Shichong may have done this at the request of Li Shimin, if you have a good memory, you should remember that the flag of Li Valve was hung on the ship yesterday." “
