Chapter 499: Painting Finishing Touch

In addition to practicing Longmen Taijiquan, entering the Xuanmiao Pavilion every day to look through and study ancient books, copying paintings and calligraphy, this is something that Chen Yi will inevitably go.

When I was a child, the teacher wrote on it, and the students below wrote down the words on the blackboard, stroke by stroke, and the same was true in some courses such as painting.

When Chen Yi first started to learn painting, he also imitated what Shi Dan had painted, and after fully comprehending the things in the original work, he integrated them into his own paintings, which was the real copying.

However, compared to painting, calligraphy is the most, regular script, line calligraphy, these two forms, the history of calligraphy masters, almost are very good, line of calligraphy is on the basis of regular script, between regular script, cursive, in order to make up for the regular script is too slow to write and cursive illegible and generated, not as cursive as sloppy, not as upright as regular script.

These calligraphy works in the Xuan Miao Pavilion can be said to have allowed Chen Yi to find a home in the Taoist temple, and he keeps copying every day, even if some works cannot be taken out, he is also looking at the pictures on the identification information in his mind at his residence to copy.

Although he couldn't use the copying technique, there was no lack of penmanship in his handwriting, which couldn't stop his plan to copy at all.

There are not many authentic calligraphy works of famous figures such as Yan Zhenqing here, but there is no shortage of works by other famous artists in history.

For some works, Chen Yi only copied them for a period of time, and after comprehending the meaning of the brushwork, he no longer copied them. But there is only one work. But he's been copying it. Not a single day is missing.

That is the work that was borrowed from the Xuanmiao Pavilion and has not been returned so far, which is called a bad calligraphy by the head of the Taoist Enlightenment, a copy of Wang Xizhi's "Huang Ting Jing".

This seemingly worthless calligraphy, but it contains the brushwork that Chen Yi regards as a treasure, and as the time of copying increases, he feels more and more brushwork, and the calligraphy he now knows Guò is simply different from the original.

A verve without any haze. One is in high spirits, Chen Yi also took the calligraphy he copied during this period, went to the master of the Enlightenment Truth, and briefly talked about it, but he did not mention that he could feel the meaning of the brushwork, but said that he was copying and copying, and it became like this.

Wuzhen Daoist looked at the calligraphy, shook his head and smiled, and told him. This is the result of copying other calligraphy in the Xuan Miao Pavilion, and there is no charm in looking at this calligraphy. Unconsciously, he incorporated the brushwork he had obtained from copying before.

At the same time, the head of Wuzhen Dao also told Chen Yi that he had studied this calligraphy for a long time, and he had also copied it a few times, but there was still no charm when he copied it, and even if there was a little, it was only brought in by him unconsciously.

Seeing that the Taoist Master of Wuzhen said this, Chen Yi could only smile helplessly, and put this matter in his heart, it seems that the strange phenomenon on this calligraphy can only be felt through guò copying, which proves the strangeness of the work even more.

Wuzhen Daochang didn't take this work to heart, but he was looking for some documents about ancient silk paper in the Xuanmiao Pavilion, but he found an ancient book that specifically introduced silk and paper in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

Although the silk from the Jin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty did not have much exhibition, until the Southern Song Dynasty of the Five Dynasties, there was a larger exhibition, but there was no big exhibition, which does not mean that the silk of these dynasties are exactly the same.

Just like porcelain, even during the reign of an emperor, there are differences in the early, middle, and late periods.

It's just that this material is in classical Chinese, and it took some time for Chen Yi to interpret it, and compare its characteristics with the silk book in his hand one by one, and now this silk book only has a small part of the characteristics of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the rest are not the same at all.

And the shape of this calligraphy, it can be said that it is carved out of a mold of Wang Xizhi, but only the form, but no charm, if it is the Tang Dynasty, then due to the influence of the times, even if it is really to describe Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, and then written on silk paper, it will not be so similar.

Wang Xizhi's font was created on the basis of the Qin and Han dynasties, and it also has some characteristics of the Qin Chinese character, but in the Tang Dynasty, after hundreds of years of exhibition, there is no such characteristic, and the Tang Dynasty has Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan and other regular script everyone, when learning calligraphy, I am afraid that the first to copy is these three masters, then the subsequent handwriting, more or less will have this characteristic.

But Chen Yi did not appear from it, the calligraphy of the four major families of regular script, he is no stranger, it can be said that they are different, the above three people are all from the Tang Dynasty, and the last regular script everyone is Zhao Mengfu of the Yuan Dynasty.

Based on these characteristics, Chen Yi believes that the age of this silk calligraphy should be earlier than the Sui and Tang dynasties, and perhaps it was really traced by someone before the Tang Dynasty based on Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting.

This can be said to be the conclusion he came to after careful research, but Wuzhen Daoist didn't care about this calligraphy, and it was not certain whether these conclusions were accurate, so Chen Yi didn't sue anyone.

In addition to making tea on weekdays, Chen Yi also made several meals by himself, and the vegetarian food he made was almost comparable to the delicacies of the mountains and seas, which made a lot of Taoist priests have a great appetite.

The Xuanji Daoist naturally gave an order to keep these people in the kitchen secret, and asked Chen Yi to do it every once in a while without asking Chen Yi too much.

Taoism pays attention to purity and inaction, if Chen Yi could sue him, he would have said it a long time ago, and if he did not sue him, it means that there is some inconvenience.

And Wuzhen Daoist is very happy, these meals made by Chen Yi are very suitable for his appetite, generally speaking, he will not eat the meal at noon, but now, as long as Chen Yi cooks at noon, he will definitely go to the dining hall.

For this reason, the Enlightened Daoist couldn't help but ask Chen Yi several times if he was interested in joining the Dragon Sect, and even said his promise to teach himself.

It's just that Chen Yi refused to mention this matter again, that is, if Daoist Wuzhen talks about becoming a Taoist priest, he doesn't talk about eating, and he doesn't even make tea every day.

In the past half a month, Chen Yi has been busy almost all day, and sometimes he will communicate with the Taoist Master of Enlightenment to have a deeper understanding of some things about Taoism.

However, with the end of He Wenzhi's story, he focused part of his focus on the finishing touch of that painting.

For this reason, Chen Yi also deliberately copied a few paintings as a backup to prevent mistakes in the finishing touches or not achieving He Wenzhi's satisfaction.

Through Guò's copying of paintings and letters, Chen Yi also clearly felt some feelings between He Wenzhi and Qin Xiaowan for each other.

The letters between the two are also written with a brush, Qin Xiaowan's calligraphy font is full of juanxiu atmosphere, and He Wenzhi is spirited.

Finally, a few days later, Chen Yi took a painting of the eyes and came to He Wenzhi's room, this painting was also completed with the finishing touch, and the finishing touch and painting skills could bring him some insights about the finishing touch, which is why his finishing touch continues to amaze people.

He Wenzhi looked at the painting, this painting was originally lifeless, but after Chen Yi clicked his eyes, it became vibrant, Qin Xiaowan in the painting was full of spirituality, but even if he was surprised by Chen Yi's eye-catching skills, he still shook his head, "Xiaoyi, if this painting were someone else, I would feel very perfect, but this is my wife, the most important person in my life, her smile is deeply engraved in my heart, in my mind." ”

"And this painting, which is very different from the real her, can only make me feel that this is someone else, not my wife, I will tell you the defects in it, and then modify it." He Wenzhi looked at the painting and sighed, he wanted his wife to reproduce the painting realistically, but he couldn't do it himself.

Chen Yi nodded, although he felt that this painting was very perfect, but his feeling did not represent He Wenzhi's feeling, and he did not have the idea of being able to succeed once.

After listening to some of the defects that He Wenzhi said, Chen Yi thought about it for a while, and then returned to the room with the painting.

The size of the open eyes, the black and white of the eyes, and the angle of the gaze can all affect a person's demeanor.

If He Wenzhi's wife was alive, the requirements would not be so harsh, but now that his wife has passed away, this is the last portrait of his wife left in the world, and he will naturally demand perfection.

After going back, Chen Yi looked at the paintings, took out the most important ones and copied them again, and spent a few days copying this painting without eyes, from which he felt He Wenzhi's feelings at that time, and some pictures appeared from it.

What kind of Qin Xiaowan will satisfy He Wenzhi, maybe it will not be the real Qin Xiaowan, but what He Wenzhi imagined in his heart.

In this process, Chen Yi did not just stay in the room every day, but studied and absorbed knowledge according to some usual plans.

Finally, two or three days later, when the one-month period was only six days, Chen Yi took a painting again and let He Wenzhi look at it, and he was greatly affirmed by He Wenzhi.

Chen Yi smiled and nodded, it was really not easy to achieve He Wenzhi's satisfaction, and similarly, after the next painting was completed, he would also have to turn the previous deep considerations into reality. (To be continued......)
