Seeing that there was a note in the cover, Li Yi's first reaction was that Liu Lao knew if he knew, and his second reaction was that whether he knew it or not, he could read the content of the note before judging it.

The note was very small, less than three fingers wide, so there were not many words on it, only about twenty or thirty, but the meaning of these two short sentences almost made Li Yi cry out without surprise.

Because, what is written on it is the problem of the authentic handwriting in the painting of "Pine and Cypress Eagle" that he just bought not long ago!

Li Yi remembered very clearly that when Zhong Haoqing had consulted Liu Lao on the issue of painting fake characters in the couplet, Liu Lao made it clear that he did not know, and he also felt extremely confused.

But I didn't expect that the answer would be here, and, the most bizarre thing is that it has always been in Liu Lao's own hands!

However, even if all these unknowns add up, Li Yi should not be so surprised, but he was still greatly frightened, because the content of this note revealed a shocking secret to him!

According to the record of the note, the old man Baishi did write two in a row in a short period of time, and the extra one was written especially for him at the request of a friend!

And the name of this friend is called bouldering!

Named Bouldering, he can be a friend of Old Man Shiraishi, and can ask him for a couplet that has already been written once, and Old Man Shiraishi is willing to write it to him...... Except for the one who is good at landscape painting, his painting skills are enough to start a sect. even created an original method - in addition to the bouldering generation of grandmaster bouldering, Li Yi really can't think of a second person!

But what does the second couplet represent? To know. The second couplet was used to match an imitation painting, and the author of that imitation painting was Ding Yi!

According to this reasoning, then more than 90% of Fu Baoshi may be Ding Yi of that generation! Moreover, according to the reasoning of age and time, he is likely to be the successor after Wu Changshuo!

Fu Baoshi will actually be Ding Yi? And also imitate the old man Shiraishi. painted a famous painting created by him in 1946, and even asked him for a couplet for this imitation painting. What is this trying to do?

Li Yi didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it, because every possibility he thought of next was probably an insult to the grandmaster who was known as the master of bouldering!

But...... Don't. After Fu Baoshi got the couplet. The couplets have gone into the hands of others again?

No, Li Yi's brows furrowed suddenly, there is still a big flaw in this matter!

Because, he suddenly remembered that such a thing not only sent a couplet that had been written and published, but also sent it to everyone and friends like Fu Baoshi, and the old man Baishi should be recorded in his notebook openly!

But why. There was not a single word to be found in the normal record, but now he saw a deliberately hidden one in the folder. But a small note that records the truth?

What does it mean that the records are not publicly recorded, but a secret memo is left behind?

Li Yi thought of a possibility, that is, Fu Baoshi wanted to take Qi Baishi's couplet to do a secret thing, and Qi Baishi also knew about this secret thing, and it was probably because he knew about it, so he made an exception and wrote him an identical couplet!

Fu Baoshi imitated the painting, and then paired it with the couplets written by the old man Baishi, and then took it to do a secret thing......

Pit people? What are you kidding, the combination of the two swords of the master of Bouldering Zhai and the old man Baishi will be used as a reasonable imitation of the pit man, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible!

Li Yi scratched his scalp, this matter is a bit brain-burning, very brain-burning......

"Xiao Li, what's wrong?"

His anomaly soon attracted the attention of Liu Lao, who had been paying attention to him.

"Oh no, nothing, it's just a little excited......"

Li Yi put on a smile that was more ugly than crying at Liu Lao, his own brain was not enough, but he wanted to share the secret with these two old people who were a hundred times more experienced than him, but how should he explain that your old man took the secret that he hadn't discovered for decades, but he saw through it at a glance as soon as he got started?

Card, what's the difference between this and looking for death?!

Since the matter can't be explained, Li Yi simply doesn't think about it, anyway, now that he has grasped part of the truth, if he pays attention in the future, maybe there will be a chance to uncover the mystery.

In fact, it doesn't matter if they can't be revealed, the two grandmasters have been dead for many years, even if they were once the former owners of Ding Yi, who has been crisscrossing for hundreds of years and specifically used the name of imitating famous paintings for profit, even if they used that imitation to do something bad, people die for the greatest, and they are in the ground, and it doesn't seem to make much sense to pursue it further.

It's just that...... Li Yi suddenly remembered that Zhong Haoqing had told him that whether it was Ding Yi or Bingyi, these people should be controlled by a guy codenamed 13, and they were all under the leadership of 13, willing to do some imitation and forgery of famous works, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how powerful and amazing should this Nima 13 be, so that people like Wu Changshuo and Fu Baoshi, who can be called a generation of grandmasters, are actually willing to obey his orders and willingly imitate fakes......

Could it really be that the master once said, the 13 of that generation is the crown prince?

No one can answer this question, and it is likely to be more difficult to find the answer than to uncover the secret of the couplet, because even if it is now openly admitted, its credibility is not guaranteed.

This problem is too tangled and too big, so Li Yi decided not to worry about himself anymore, it is going to rain, his mother wants to get married, let them go!

Although it was complicated to write, in fact, it didn't take Li Yi half a minute to think about these things clearly, so although Liu Lao noticed that he seemed to be a little wrong, as soon as Li Yi explained, he quickly believed his statement.

"In this note of the old man Baishi, some skills are indeed very useful, even I, an old man who doesn't practice calligraphy and painting, have been inspired to read it, it's okay, don't worry, read it slowly, as long as you have time, it's okay to read it for as long as you want!"

Li Yi nodded, calmed down, and opened his notes.

The first page of the note is a pencil sketch of a landscape painting, which is not particularly clear in some places because of its age, but in general, it is still possible to see the artist's own intentions.

In this sketch, judging from the layout of the picture, the author's ideas are rather messy, there are signs of alteration in many places, and the proportions of some sets are not even quite right, so it can be seen that this should be just a preliminary idea.

Turning to the second page, it is still a sketch, but the picture has changed abruptly, becoming organized, some parts, the drawing is still very detailed, but there are also a few places of layout, you can still see that the author is still hesitating.

The next third page is basically the same as the finished draft, with almost no changes. On the fourth page, several options are compared in several key positions, and the old man Shiraishi also briefly marked the reasons why he made that choice.

After reading the four pages of notes, Li Yi closed his eyes and let out a long breath of turbidity, Old man Baishi, this is using notes to teach.

"It's teaching, and it's also a process of clarifying your own thinking. In many cases, it takes the painter two or three years to create a large-scale painting, and in these two or three years, you may have several different opinions on the same issue, and this is when the role of this note is highlighted, which can help the painter to see his own mental journey at that time, so as to strengthen his confidence and make the best choice. Xiaoyi, you will also make such notes in the future. ”

Over there, Zhong Haoqing also finished reading a paragraph, saw Li Yi's reaction, pondered slightly, and began to teach Chunchun on the side.

Li Yi nodded, now, his paintings have not yet reached this depth, and the subject of the picture is only based on relatively simple and single flowers, trees, mountains and rocks, the layout is relatively simple, and relatively advanced techniques such as far and near scenes with light and shade are still relatively rare, so strictly speaking, he can't be called a painter yet, he just pushed open the door.

However, if he creates next, the pictures he just saw should have a greater enlightening effect on him.

Therefore, he read the rest of the notes more carefully, and there is Zhong Haoqing, a big expert, who can consult and guide at any time, which naturally benefits a lot.

In the middle, the two of them had a lunch with wild vegetables in the mountains as the main meal at Liu Lao's place, and then it took about three or four hours to finally finish reading these two precious notes.

"A lot of times, it's a pleasure for us to pick up the slack, to collect it, even to our creations. But I see something is wrong with you since you went to Europe and came back. Xiaoyi, you are still young, even if you want to do something, there is no need to be in such a hurry......"

On the return car, Zhong Haoqing saw that Li Yi was in a good mood, so he smiled and nodded at him. Everyone, what kind of path to choose, and how to go on this road better, this is a big question.

The biggest difference between the children of ordinary families and those of those families is that there is no one who can give timely guidance and correct guidance at some important choices on the road of life.

And this is exactly what Li Yi, who was born in an ordinary background, lacked before, so it also created his current character.

Although it is easy to change and difficult to change, with the growth of people, with the change of work and living environment, especially the sublimation of the surrounding circle of friends, there is also a saying that the body is moved and the qi is moved.

Therefore, Zhong Haoqing believes that with the passage of time, many imperfections in Li Yi's personality will gradually change, and in the process of reshaping her personality, try to guide him and help him, which is the most important thing she should do as a master. (To be continued.) )
