Fang Yang took a look, and saw that the old man was wearing a traditional Tang costume, with neatly buttoned plackets, and was sitting on the Taishi chair in the middle of the main hall drinking tea with a teacup.

This is the momentum that naturally develops in a high position all year round.

And the old man can be said to be a murderer, although the war years killed all the devils of the Japanese country, but the evil spirit has all accumulated, which also makes the momentum exuded by the old man a little more cold and murderous.

Under such a momentum, ordinary people can't help but feel weak in their legs, tremble in their bodies, and even stand unsteadily.

And Fang Yang naturally wouldn't be afraid of this momentum.

Speaking of killing, the Wild Wolf Organization and the Scorpion Organization were almost all killed by Fang Yang, and there were a lot of lives in his hands. And although the old man's status is noble, Fang Yang is not an ordinary gentleman now, even those in the core leadership have to respect him, coupled with his profound cultivation, it also makes him full of confidence.

Therefore, in the face of the momentum that the old man deliberately released, Fang Yang did not have the slightest cowardice in his eyes, he met the old man's sharp gaze, and there was a faint smile on his face.

He had the long cardboard box under his armpit, and the old man's momentum seemed to have no effect on him, and he saw him walk into the hall with his footsteps easily, and said with a smile in his mouth:

"Old Fang, I have heard for a long time that your Chinese painting style is unique, I just found a good work, don't you come to the capital with it as soon as possible, please taste it?"

Seeing Fang Yang's calm appearance, Old Man Fang couldn't help but flash a trace of admiration in his eyes, but there was still no trace of a smile on his face, he just stretched out his hand and nodded a little, and said:

"Don't talk too much, young man! Although I can't compare to your teacher, old man, I still have a very high vision, and I can't fool me if I find a painting casually. ”

At this time, Fang Yang had already walked in front of Old Man Fang, and he said with a smile:

"Old man, it's all up to you, as long as you are not satisfied after looking at the painting, I will turn around and leave without saying a word!"

"Yes, but one more: this painting has to be kept!" A hint of banter flashed in Old Man Fang's eyes and he said.

Fang Yang was stunned for a moment, but it was only half a second at most, and then he immediately nodded and said:

"No problem!"

"Yo! You're so confident! Old Man Fang said with a look of surprise.

Because in this case, no matter whether the painting Fang Yang took out was good or not, and whether Old Man Fang liked it or not, as long as he tilted his mouth after reading it and said, "This painting can't enter my eyes", then Fang Yang not only had to leave immediately, but also this painting would have to stay.

It can be said that Fang Yang's stay depends entirely on the old man's mouth.

In this case, I dare to agree, how much confidence I have to have!

Fang Yang just smiled faintly, held the long carton in both hands and gently placed it on the coffee table beside Old Man Fang, and then said:

"Old man, please!"

Of course, Fang Yang was confident, he was almost completely sure that Old Man Fang would not even be able to say that he didn't like it with his conscience after seeing this painting.

Because if this painting is made public, it will definitely cause a big earthquake in the entire Chinese painting and calligraphy circle.

This is one of the few paintings and calligraphy left by Xuanyangzi, and the "Guanyin Map" brought by Fang Yang today, even Fang Yang thought that it was copied by later generations at the earliest, because this "Guanyin Map" was really shocking, and it turned out to be Wu Daozi, the "painting saint" of the Tang Dynasty.

It's not that Fang Yang's level of appreciation is too poor, but that the academic community has already concluded that Wu Daozi's paintings have long been extinct, and all that has been circulated in the world are copying works. If the painting is genuine, it is a work that fills a gap in scholarship.

Fang Yang was from Master Baiyan in his previous life, and after he was reborn, he was able to worship Master Baiyan and learn calligraphy and painting and cultural relics appreciation from him.

After getting these paintings and calligraphy, Fang Yang often took them out to watch and speculate, especially this "Guanyin Map", the more Fang Yang looked at it, the more he felt that it was tasteful, he had also seen several Qing Dynasty painters copying Wu Daozi's works collected by Master Bai Yan, but he faintly felt that the "Guanyin Map" in his hand seemed to have more of that kind of smart three-dimensional sense......

So Fang Yang went to read various classics, and after confirming each other, he felt more and more that his "Guanyin Map" seemed to be the real work.

Originally, Fang Yang wanted to bring this picture to the capital and give it to Master Bai Yan to personally appraise it. Because even if this painting is not genuine, the artistic value is quite high, and he believes that Master Bai Yan will be very happy when he sees it.

And if this painting is genuine, then it should be the first time Master Bai Yan sees it, otherwise if Master Bai Yan knows about it in the future, he will inevitably complain.

Fang Yang knew that his teacher loved painting.

However, by chance, Fang Yang did not need to be identified by Master Bai Yan to basically confirm that this was an authentic painting of Wu Daozi.

It was still a month or two ago, Fang Yang was bored and took out some of Xuanyangzi's codex in the storage ring and flipped through them, but he unintentionally inserted willows and willows, and he actually read a record about this painting in a codex.

On the top, Xuanyangzi introduced the origin of this painting, which turned out to be in the 38th year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, when the royal family of the previous dynasty was collectively killed, Xuanyangzi casually saved a Zhu royal family, and later the children of the royal family lived an ordinary life incognito.

And this painting, including several other paintings and calligraphy, is the royal family in order to thank Xuanyangzi for saving his life, must be given to him, according to the royal family children, this "Guanyin map" is his ancestors handed down the family heirloom, said to be Wu Daozi's authentic handiwork.

Xuanyangzi didn't have any special preference for calligraphy and painting, and the other party had to send it, so he reluctantly accepted it, and after receiving it, he threw it directly in the storage bag and didn't touch it for many years. However, he recorded it as an anecdote.

When Fang Yang read this paragraph, he jumped almost immediately.

With this research, coupled with his own professional appraisal, this painting is almost 99.9% probable, and it is authentic for Wu Daozi!

Later, Fang Yang originally wanted to share this joy with his teacher, Master Bai Yan—as for announcing it and causing a shock in the calligraphy and painting world, Fang Yang had no intention of doing so.

In that case, there will definitely be all kinds of things such as buying and borrowing paintings, and he will be overwhelmed.

However, he returned to Kyoto several times in a hurry, and there was no time for this matter, so it had to be completed when, so it was delayed.

This time he returned to Beijing for Fang Xu's affairs, Fang Yang also had an idea, and used this painting as a stepping stone.

The old man had already opened the long carton and took out the scroll.

Before he opened the scroll, he just looked at the shaft head, and the old man already showed a look of great interest - this look is an old object, whether it is the material or the workmanship, it is not comparable to the mass production of goods today.

The old man opened the red thread and slowly unfolded the scroll.

Seeing this, Fang Yang hurriedly stepped forward and helped pull the scroll - this is a picture of Guanyin in a standing posture, a total of 86 centimeters high, and it will be very difficult for the old man to hold it in his hand alone, and he will not be able to appreciate it properly.

The two of them worked together to slowly unfold the scroll, and in the end, Fang Yang held the scroll high, and the old man set his eyes on the Guanyin diagram.

Almost the first time he saw this painting, the old man's gaze couldn't help but stare at it, and then he immediately took out his reading glasses from his jacket pocket and put them on, and his eyes fell on the inscription.

"Wu Daozi?" The old man said to himself, "Which of you is copying this?" How come I've never seen it before? ”

Although the old man was born in poverty, he has always insisted on learning, especially in calligraphy and painting, and even many calligraphers and painters gave him a thumbs up. The old man's painting style is majestic and full of slaughter, and the general of Jin Ge Iron Horse is undoubtedly imposed, which even Master Bai Yan is ashamed of.

People who have not experienced iron-blooded battles and mountains of corpses and blood will not be able to draw such spirit under any circumstances.

When he held a leading position, he never took advantage of his position to seek personal interests for himself, only once after raiding a landlord's home, he seized many precious calligraphy and paintings, and the old man opened a back door for himself at that time and lent these calligraphy and paintings home.

Of course, he really just borrowed it, and after a few months of studying it without sleep or food, he returned it to the organization as it was, and many of these calligraphy and paintings have since been treasured by several major national museums.

This incident shows the old man's style, and his love for calligraphy and painting is also visible.

It can be said that the old man's level of appreciation of calligraphy and painting is also quite high.

The "Guanyin Picture" brought by Fang Yang today, he already felt unusual at the first glance. However, after seeing Wu Daozi's payment, the old man's first reaction was still trying to determine which painter copied it.

Because of the extinction of Wu Daozi's paintings, a consensus has been formed in the academic circles.

The old man never imagined that what he put in front of him would be a genuine painting of Wu Daozi.

Fang Yang saw that the old man really forgot to embarrass himself, and suddenly immersed himself in the painting, and couldn't help but be secretly amused.

He didn't say anything, just quietly held the scroll and let Old Man Fang taste it.

The old man even took out a pair of white gloves and put them on, and then took a magnifying glass to observe the "Guanyin Picture" inch by inch, and his expression became very hot, and he couldn't help but say to himself:

"The handwriting is elegant, majestic, extremely vivid and three-dimensional. This Guanyin has a dignified and full face, and the lines are quite smooth, which is a typical Wu Daozi style! Wu takes the wind, Wu takes the wind...... If the painting saint's work can survive, it will be like this at most......"

The old man was fascinated by the more he watched, and he completely forgot the passage of time.

And Fang Yang was not in a hurry, he just held the scroll quietly, if he was an ordinary person, his hands would have been so sore that he couldn't stand it, and Fang Yang naturally wouldn't have any troubles in this regard, even if he held it all day, he wouldn't feel tired.

Fang Hong also stood aside very quietly, guarding his duty as a housekeeper, not saying a word, and waiting for Old Man Fang's instructions at any time.

The old man watched it for more than twenty minutes before he reluctantly raised his head.

At this time, Fang Yang came out from behind the scroll and asked with a smile:

"Old man, does this painting get into your eyes?"

Old Man Fang paused for a moment, and then showed a wry smile - he had already completely forgotten that he had secretly made up his mind to make Fang Yang deflated just now.

The old man was also upright, he nodded and said:

"Not bad! Count you boy as a pass! ”

Actually, it's not bad! He can't wait to get this painting into the study now, and then **** study it night and night! But when he saw the hint of triumph in Fang Yang's eyes, he couldn't help but feel angry, but he couldn't help but admit that this painting moved him, so he gave such a moderate evaluation.

However, Fang Yang didn't care about this, as long as the old man didn't drive himself away directly, it would be a victory.

Old Man Fang couldn't help but glance at the painting again, and then said:

"Fang Hong, you go find a shelf and hang this painting first......

"Yes, sir!" Fang Hong bowed slightly, then retreated.

Soon he found a small wooden shelf with small holes on it, which seemed to be specially used to hang things, and he could also use these small holes to adjust the height.

Fang Hong measured the height of the scroll, inserted the small log strip in his hand into the small hole, and then said:

"Xiaofang, hang up the painting! You're tired after lifting for a long time......"

In fact, when Fang Hong saw Fang Yang in one move for twenty or thirty minutes just now, he wanted to come up and help Fang Yang raise the picture scroll, but he wasn't sure if the old man was going to deliberately make Fang Yang suffer, after all, the old man didn't hide the matter between Fang Qiao and Fang Yang, he knew that the old man didn't have a good impression of Fang Yang.

So after thinking about it, Fang Hong still kept his duty and did not act rashly.

Now that the old man took the initiative to find a shelf to hang up, Fang Hong was also busy going to Zhang Luo.

"Thank you, Humber!" Fang Yang said with a smile.

Then he hung up the painting, still very relaxed, and did not feel tired from holding a painting for nearly half an hour.

Old Man Fang knew that Fang Yang was "fine", but he would not be as surprised as Fang Hong, he walked to the shelf wearing reading glasses, looked carefully for a while, and finally couldn't help asking:

"Fang Yang, I think this should be an old object, tell me, who copied this painting?"

Fang Yang asked with a grin:

"Elder Fang, what do you think? Whose work do you feel this looks like? ”

Old Man Fang showed a wry smile on his face and said:

"Don't mention it, the more I look at it, the more it looks like the painting of the saint himself...... That's why I'm very interested in this guy. If you can copy the works of the painting saint to this extent, I don't think it will be an unknown person, so you can tell me quickly! ”

Fang Yang showed a meaningful smile on his face and said:

"Old man, in fact, your intuition is correct, this painting is indeed the true work of Painting Saint Wu Daozi!" r1148
