Chapter 208: The Final Link

Cao Cao lowered his head slightly, he already felt everyone's eyes, if he didn't come forward to do something, he would really be underestimated. Strode to the center of the crowd, showed a happy expression, and said, "Everyone, this poetry meeting is really fierce and extraordinary!" I also watched Zihan's work just now, although the content is vulgar, but the painter is not to say, even if I Cao Cao can't compare, but I am confident that in terms of content, I will definitely be able to surpass Yun Zihan! Let's just watch! Hahahaha、、、" After speaking, Cao Cao strode to the desk that had been sorted out again, looked at Yun Bin, showed a strange look, and then focused on the painting. Cao Cao is worthy of everyone, casually to the desk next to a stand, there is a kind of big event, so that the people present are serious, and then look at Cao Cao's movements, like flowing water, painting can be described as one go, the action is chic, free to retract, and Yun Bin's wild style of painting is completely different, if you say that the style of painting is the most lovely, it belongs to Cao Cao, this style of painting is the realm pursued by literati and ink writers, not impatient, tepid, confident and atmospheric, if the pen is like divine help, under everyone's eyes, Cao Cao's pen sketches a picture of ambition galloping, its image h is huge, the water is rapid, it looks like it is really a big river rushing, although the painting is not as vivid as Yun Bin, but in terms of content and image, Cao Cao's painting is far beyond Yun Bin's painting.

After finishing the painting, Cao Cao was satisfied with the paper blowing, showing a smug smile, after a careful look, Cao Cao put the brush away, then turned around and said: "What I painted is galloping!" How about you take a look? If there are any defects, please point them out, and Cao Cao will be grateful. ”

Yun Bin exhaled slightly, a little lost, he didn't want to set Cao Cao Cao by himself, Cao Cao got out of it at once, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he excused himself that the painting was not as good as himself, and at the same time emphasized that other aspects were not worse than himself, so when the painting came out, even if the people present found that Cao Cao's painting was not as good as himself, they would not say anything more because of this, and then pay attention to which key points to see. Yun Bin squeezed in with the flow of people, looking at this galloping and endless work, the content of the absolute masterpiece, completely outlining the main characteristics of the river, the flow and the urgency! Although some details of the painting are a little rough, it does not affect the value of the whole painting, it is not a masterpiece, and it cannot be compared with Cai Yong's, but it completely covers Yunbin's fairy Yunmeng. 、、、、、、After reading the painting, all the literati and artists applauded without hesitation, and Yun Bin did not hesitate to applaud, so he had to applaud along, this is the applause that Cao Cao deserves, no matter how unwilling Yun Bin is, this is already recognized by everyone. The painting was sent to Cai Yan's hand, Cai Yan looked at it carefully, and praised: "Lord Cao's paintings are first-class, definitely the best works, such a momentum is not the artistic conception that ordinary people can paint, I think only an atmospheric person like Lord Cao can paint it." Compared with his father's paintings, it is only slightly inferior, but now looking at the situation, there is no doubt that Lord Cao won the championship. ”

"Miss Cai, I wonder how your paintings are? Why don't you take it out and show it to all of us! Maybe your drawing is better! It is not certain who will win this championship. What do you think, Lord Cao? I don't mind if the little one comes out to make trouble! "The one who spoke was a gorgeously dressed and handsome literati, looking at the temperament of the literati, he was very arrogant, at first glance, he was a child of an official family, his official tone was very strong, and talking to Cao Cao was also two-faced, if you Cao Cao was dissatisfied with himself, then I would withdraw this sentence, if there was no dissatisfaction, then this sentence would be when I gave you face and asked.

Cao Cao smiled slightly, behaved very arrogantly, and said: "That's right, even if it's a competition, then you should gather the works of many talented people, and then choose the best among them, even if Your Excellency doesn't say it, I, Cao Cao, will say so, Miss Cai, it's better to take out your works and show them to everyone!" I, Cao Cao, know your painting skills, hehehehe、、、" Cai Yan pulled a wisp of green silk with all kinds of charm, and said: "My painting is not as good as Lord Cao, and the little woman has just made her own opinion, taking this painting as a painting, please forgive me, if there is no doubt, the little woman will start the next link, and the last link of the competition, how about it?" ”

As soon as I heard the last link, I sent my own painting directly, and everyone was excited, if anyone got this painting, there was no doubt that Cai Yan would be favored, which was a more valuable reward than giving away books! One by one, because of Yun Bin and Cao Cao's immersion in their hearts, they suddenly became active, and the eyes that looked at Yun Bin and Cao Cao became hot, just like competitors. Cao Cao's face was a little unsightly, a trace of loss flashed Cao Cao's eyes, and he tried the tune, this is Cao Cao's biggest flaw, and Cao Cao had to take a look at playing the piano, as for what those strings represented, Cao Cao didn't understand any of them, the six arts of the gentleman, Cao Cao couldn't play the piano, and the others were all strong players, and now I can't help but regret that I didn't learn the piano at the beginning.

On the contrary, Yun Bin is more and more natural, the piano is also his own strength, in the previous life, among the training subjects of the secret agent system, there is a piece of music, most of the instruments in it can be played by themselves, and the temperament piano is the instrument that he is most specialized in, because the piano is a unique instrument owned by his own country, how can he not learn it well? Cai Yan's paintings, Yun Bin doesn't care at all, everything is for his own reputation, as long as today's poetry meeting ends, his name will be red-headed Luoyang, or even most of the Central Plains! When the time comes, how many talents will come here. Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Cai Yan nodded to the maid beside her, and the maid hurriedly took a group of maidservants from a room to take out a large number of pianos, although they are all ordinary pianos, but each piano is worth a lot, and now it has gradually entered the troubled times, and the prices of many items are outrageously high, and now it is a luxury to take out these pianos.

After the maids handed out the piano one by one, almost everyone had one, and Cai Yan himself was holding the Jiaowei piano and was adjusting the strings, this piano was Cai Yong's baby, if it weren't for the poetry club, Cai Yong would not let Cai Yan take it out. In terms of value, the value of this Jiaowei qin, even if the sum of the value of all the pianos is not enough, it can be seen that the precious journey of the Jiaowei qin, despite this, Yun Bin still feels a lot of pressure, because many famous songs in ancient times have been lost, what if Cai Yan plays a piano song that he doesn't know? Thinking of this, Yun Bin felt that the pressure was not ordinary.

Cai Yan saw that the time was almost up, so he changed the tune again and changed it to [Won Lin Cao], which was divided into six sections, namely Hurt Time, West Hunting, Winning Lin, Long Sigh, Angry Anger, and Absolute Writing. I told people privately that this song is exactly how I feel right now. However, Confucius is a sage and cares about the world, and I am an ordinary man who only pays attention to himself. On the realm, nature is heavenly. This has become [Won Lin Cao], this is a famous song of Sage Kong, the difficulty can be imagined, half of them were eliminated at once, there were originally more than 100 people, but now only more than 30 people remained, and the others beat their chests and were frustrated, hating that they didn't practice the piano at home, otherwise it wouldn't be this miserable situation. I secretly vowed that I would have to make amends when I went home.

This time it was Yun Bin and Cai Yan who were in tune, seeing this, Cao Cao's jealousy burned wildly, and he couldn't help but secretly fantasize about how good it would be if Yun Bin was replaced by himself? Playing with Miss Cai, you can't be a husband and wife in time, and it's not in vain. It's a pity that this is all fantasy, and the protagonist here is Yunbin Yun Zihan. The Z geniuses who left, one by one, sweating profusely, are very conspicuous in their anxiety, and they have already lost their personable image when they first came, and they are a little embarrassed, if this scene is seen by outsiders, they must not be surprised and scared to death, the literati pay the most attention to the image, and now the image is terrible, can it not shock the world? This time, Cai Yan seemed to be a little impatient, and played Sage Kong's [Yilan] and [Will Return to Cao] in a row

As soon as Cai Yan said that he began, he did not slack off and played the piano, and the first song played was "Guangling San", which is a large-scale qin song in ancient times, and it is one of the top ten famous ancient songs in China. It has been around since at least the Han Dynasty. Its content has always been varied, but the general view is that it is associated with the qin music of "Nie Zheng's Assassination of the King of Han". "Nie Zheng's Assassination of King Han" mainly describes the tragic story of Nie Zheng, the son of a swordsmith in the Warring States Period, who stabbed King Han to death in order to avenge his father's murder, and then committed suicide. Regarding this, Cai Yong's "Qin Exercise" is described in more detail, and I don't want Cai Yan to play this tune as soon as he comes up, and the killing machine is hidden, so that the tune that I originally thought was a low-pitched tune caught the following talents off guard, only Yun Bin played it with a relaxed face, because he was participating for the first time, so he was more quick to improvise, unlike these literati, who all have rich experience, and they have too many guesses, resulting in a slow response of more than one beat.

The reason why Cai Yan played this song at the beginning was completely following Cai Yong's advice, not playing cards according to the convention, and selecting the best, so Cai Yan chose this piano piece that his father was familiar with to play, listening to the messy tune below, Cai Yan frowned, there was only one tune that was beaten with him, and there was a vague meaning of cooperation, so that Cai Yan couldn't help but glance up, and when he looked up, it was Yun Bin alone, smiling, playing the piano elegantly and casually, and the whole "Guangling San" played vividly, and he was not weaker than himself at all. I was surprised that Yun Bin used an ordinary piano!

Cai Yan and Yun Bin played each other with great satisfaction, as if there were only two of them in the whole world, and the other talents, one by one, had a hot head, anxious to keep up with Cai Yan's I fear, and then synchronized, but even if their piano skills were very powerful, they could not reach the point of surpassing Cai Yan, so although they were trying to catch up, they still did not achieve the expected goal, but a few of them had been eliminated, and they sat in place with a depressed face, they were only in a hurry because they were completely behind everyone's beat, so they felt anxious. Playing the wrong tone and leaving the scene automatically, if anyone knows the mistake and doesn't end up, the consequences can be imagined afterwards, once someone did this, resulting in the final end being looked down upon by the entire literary world, and finally having to be a hermit. Suddenly, Cai Yan changed the tune he played, and it directly became [Yangchun Baixue], the elegant song name of the Chu State during the Warring States Period. "Anthology Song Yu "Asked the King of Chu": "It is "Yang'a" and "Xulu", and there are hundreds of people in the country who belong to peace, and it is "Yangchun" and "White Snow", and there are only dozens of people in the country who belong to peace. Li Zhouhan's note: ""Yang Chun", "White Snow", Gao Qu is also famous. Later is used to refer to elegant tunes in general. Tang Xue used the weak "Collection of Differences and Records of the King": "Zhilian has been famous for a long time, because everyone said: 'This generation is all a music official, and all the songs are "Ba Ren" and "Xiali", how can the songs of "Yang Chun" and "White Snow" dare to approach? Ming Chen Ruyuan's "Golden Lotus Bullet Silk": "Those "Yang Chun" and "White Snow" are on the high side, and Zhen Shen is drunk and invited, and it is difficult to meet Wuling Hao. "2. The metaphor refers to literary and artistic works that are profound and elegant, and not easy to understand. Conclusion 2 of the "Speech at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art": "Now it is a question of the unification of 'Yangchun Baixue' and 'Xialiba people', and it is a question of improving and popularizing unification. ”

Contemporary, No. 3, 1981: "Moreover, the 'traditional style' can write works that can be called spring and snow. People who were already ready didn't want to come to this famous song, not to mention the cumbersomeness of the [Yangchun Baixue] tune, and emphasized the experience and ability of the master, ordinary people can only listen to it, but can't play it, the reason is that this piece is too difficult to play. The sudden change, Yun Bin was startled, but fortunately he reacted in time,

After waiting for a group of eunuchs to leave, Cai Yong took a big sip of tea and said coldly: "Damn the old eunuch, dare to put on a score in front of the old man, it's really impatient, it's really angry old man, damn it!" Where are you going to go to this, and then go to the Jiangyang County Government to change the official seal, now you have got everything you deserve, as long as you help me take the handle of those four old guys, the old man will immediately announce that he will accept you as an apprentice, time is pressing, you can do it! ”

Yun Bin took the bamboo slip and said: "Forget about accepting apprentices or something, with the recommendation of your five elders, Zihan has already made a big splash in Luoyang, and my poem has been unanimously praised by Luoyang, I'm afraid my reputation has already risen to a higher level." Cai Yong was stunned, turned his head to look at Yun Bin, and said, "You mean to say that the old man is no longer needed?" Aren't you going to help the old man take the handle of those four old guys? If so, the old man has nothing to say, hum! ”

Yun Bin hurriedly said: "Cai Lao misunderstood, Zihan didn't mean anything, as for the task, Zihan took it!" It's just that Zihan hopes that Cai Lao will make some changes to the conditions, apprenticeship or something, do you see if you can change it to other conditions? What's more, Zihan has no background, a mountain boy, how can He De be your old disciple? The people who can be Cai Lao's disciples are all great talents in the world and big people with a great background. This is worthy of Cai Lao's identity! ”

Of course, Cai Yong knew that Yun Bin was perfunctory, but it might not be a good thing to think about it, he accepted an apprentice, and then went to Jiangyang County to serve, and finally died in Jiangyang County. Thinking of this, Cai Yong no longer blamed Yunbin's proposal, but asked lightly: "What conditions do you want?" ”

Yun Bin was overjoyed, just now I was worried that Cai Yong, an old thing, would not agree! It seems that Cai Yong is still very cute sometimes, for fear that Cai Yong will regret it, so he hurriedly said: "Cai Lao, do you want to see if you want to increase your money?" You should also know the situation in Jiangyang County, it is a bad mess, it is simply a place to burn money, and the money is only more than less, so I want to see if you can help me think of a way to make more money, or prepare food for me. ”

Cai Yong was a little angry, can't he fucking compare with money? Blowing his beard and glaring for a while, looking at Yun Bin's face, he wanted to hit Yun Bin, but in the end he suppressed this thought, not to mention whether he could beat or not, he also agreed to change the conditions, so he had to sigh and say, "Okay! It's not unclear that the times are dangerous now, and it's difficult to get food! Only in terms of money, the old man will try to help you get two hundred taels of gold, is that good? ”

Yun Bin was overjoyed, but he didn't show it on his face, showing a reluctant emotion, but finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay! Two hundred is not a lot, Cai Lao, can you see if you can have more? The environment in Jiangyang County is not only harsh, but there are also foreign enemies to resist, and the soldiers' salaries and equipment repairs all cost money! Cai Yong's face darkened, frowned and thought about it, and said: "Two hundred taels and the limit of the old man, you can do it yourself!" It can't be more, if you think it's less than two hundred taels, forget it, I don't need you to take this task. ”

Seeing that Cai Yong said so solemnly, it seems that two hundred taels is really Cai Yong's limit, and Yun Bin is not good at opening his mouth again, so he pretended to be reluctant and said: "Since Cai Lao you have said so, then it is so decided!" Alas、、、" Then Yun Bin said goodbye to Cai Yong and returned to his own courtyard, only to see that Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Gao Rui had already put on a tattered and ordinary equipment, dressed a little dirty, like a small trader, looking without any bright spots, not attracting people's attention. Seeing this scene, Yun Yi nodded and said, "Very good, I almost don't recognize who you are in this dress!" Hahahaha、、、 Gao Shun, after leaving Luoyang, be careful. ”

Gao Shun tied the thick rope around his waist and nodded: "Don't worry, lord!" Gao Shun has been working hard for so many years, and he still knows how to deal with the customs and disasters of the outside world! What's more, there are also Zhang Liao brothers who are accompanied this time, and they are absolutely foolproof. Yun Bin nodded, hugged his fist at Zhang Liao and said: "Brother Zhang Liao, I leave this time, and I don't know how long it will take to meet, you and I have the same ideals, I hope that in the future, the two of us can fight side by side, and I also ask Brother Zhang Liao to take care of it along the way, Zihan is grateful." ”

Zhang Liao looked at Yun Bin in a complicated way, nodded solemnly and said, "Hmm! Since I have promised to join you, I will cooperate with you well, rest assured! Yun Bin nodded, patted Zhang Liao and Gao Shun on the shoulders, and said: "The holy decree has been obtained, Gao Shun, you have to collect it well, don't lose it, when you go to Jiangyang County, you can go directly to the county government with the holy decree, and you can get the official seal!" But after you arrive in Jiangyang County, don't act rashly, and when I come, we will go to get the official seal, you know? What's going on with the wrapping clothes? If you can, let's go! Leave Luoyang early, be safe early. ”

Gao Shun took the holy decree and carefully stored it before saying: "It's all ready, the donkey carts are already waiting in the back!" The plate is wrapped with five thousand taels, and the clothes are all ready, lord, we have taken away so many taels of silver, so what will you do? Isn't there no money? Yun Bin took the lead and walked to the back and said: "It's okay, don't worry about us, we eat and live in Cai Mansion, if you are hungry, hurry up and get in the car and leave!" Now can be said to be the most vulnerable time for Luoyang's defense. ”

Gao Shun picked up Gao Rui and followed behind Yun Bin, Zhang Liao silently walked side by side with Gao Shun, and when he arrived at the back door, he saw that Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Moyuan and others had been waiting for a long time, Gao Shun put Gao Rui on the donkey cart, and looked at the camouflaged straw on the cart, Yun Bin said: "Okay, send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end, a short separation, and we will gather here soon after!" Because the three of us are a little sensitive in Luoyang now, we won't send more, Mo Yuan, you send Gao Shun and them away alone, and you must send them out of the city gate before you can come back, you know? ”

Mo Yuan nodded, and then stood aside, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao saluted Yun Bin, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei with their fists, the two got on the donkey cart, Zhang Liao drove the donkey cart away, and Mo Yuan cautiously pretended to be a stranger, followed behind the donkey cart, and tried to keep a distance of ten meters. Looking at Yun Bin, who was getting smaller and smaller, Gao Rui suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, withdrew his reluctant eyes, and kept asking himself what was wrong? Why do you care so much about Yunbin? When I didn't see him, I thought about Yun Bin stupidly, and wanted to say a few words to him, but after meeting, I found that I was not brave enough, and I gagged my mouth after a thousand words, and it was not until I left that Gao Rui regretted that she was not brave enough. I can only wait for the next meeting! After watching the donkey cart disappear, Yun Bin and Guan Yu returned to the other courtyard with the nine of them, and the Moren and others consciously guarded, Yun Bin looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and said seriously: "Cai Yong gave me a task, and I plan to leave Luoyang after completing this single task." ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei obviously didn't want to stay in Luoyang anymore, Zhang Fei said anxiously: "What task?" I'll finish him now, and then let's get out of the ghost place quickly, worrying about being scared every day, it's really uncomfortable. Guan Yu looked at the long-term and thought carefully, and said calmly: "Is this task worth us?" Who is the target? When can I get my hands on it? ”

Yun Bin nodded and said: "That's right, this matter needs the help of the two elder brothers, Cai Yong's task to me is to steal the handles of Lu Zhi, Yang Biao, Wang Yun, and Dong Cheng, I don't know where the handles of the four people are put at all, so I want the two brothers to follow them first, and then find out the location of the handles, steal the handles of the four of them at one time, and then leave on the same day, of course, leaving on this day will attract suspicion, so we put a smoke in advance, so that everyone in Luoyang thinks that we left." ”
