Chapter Ninety-Four: Learning Calligraphy

In the warm season of spring, all the flowers are quietly blooming, and in the south garden of Dongsheng Middle School, the grass is still in full bloom after the flowers, silently looking forward to the spring breeze under the soil.

"Soft pen, soft, less elastic. The pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info and the pen, as the name suggests, is both. With the hard millimeter as the core, the perimeter is wrapped in soft millimeters, and its rigidity, softness and elasticity are between hard millimeters and soft millimeters. It is a pen in the middle of the sex, and it is hard and soft when writing, but it is not soft and hard. ”,

The voice of the master's teaching came from the house of cherishing the word,

For beginners, if you use a hard pen at the beginning, it is easier to move the pen without much technique, but over time, you can only use a hard pen, once you pick up the sheep's pen to feel that it is difficult to move an inch.

On the contrary, if you use the sheep pen to practice the word at the beginning, although it is more difficult at the beginning, you must use the method of lifting and changing the edge to write qualified strokes, but also learn to use the method of soft pen, with the increase of practice time, you will slowly become handy, and apply freely.

At this time, if you pick up a hard pen to write, you will feel relaxed.

"The striker is too short, and the injury is hard. The soft front must be long, and the selection needs to be fine. The tube is not large, and the secondary cut needs to be complete; The vice Qi is based on the wave system, and the movement is labor-saving if the pipe is less; Mao's detailed dot painting is not lost, and the front is long and free. A good brush has four conditions, and who of you knows which four conditions they are? Lin Fuzi glanced around,

The scholars of the Xizi House lowered their heads one after another, for fear that Lin Fuzi would call their names.

This old man, the lecture is good and good, and he has nothing to ask questions.

"You, that scholar, you come and answer," Lin Zhize pointed to a scholar and said,

Zhang Baiyi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly found that this old man was referring to himself.

Has Lao Tzu ever learned calligraphy, how to know,

Zhang Baiyi got up and saluted: "The disciple doesn't know, I implore the master for advice." ”

"What?"

All the surrounding scholars looked at Zhang Baiyi in unison, crying and laughing one by one.

Good Zhang Baiyi, the master asked you to answer, but you pushed back and let the master answer, can you still do this?

Lin Fuzi was also amused by Zhang Baiyi, and said with a smile: "Since you don't know, sit down first." ”

"Master, I know," said abruptly,

Zhang Baiyi heard the sound and saw that it was Xu Qingbo who spoke.

Xu Qingbo got up and replied: "A good brush should have the four conditions of pointed, qi, round and healthy, commonly known as the "four virtues" of the pen.

The so-called sharp, when the pen is gathered, the tip of the pen should be sharp and not bald. The nib of the pen is easy to write and easy to write, which is easier to express.

The so-called Qi, after the tip of the pen is moistened and flattened with the fingers, the tip of the tip is neat and does not appear long.

If the length is equal when pressed, there is no gap in the middle, and the pen is "ten thousand millimeters of force".

The so-called round, the pen around the full cone, not flat or thin, just right, that is, the meaning of sufficient hair. If there is enough hair, the pen is full of pen power when writing, and vice versa, it is thin and lacks pen power.

The pen is perfect, and the pen can turn as you wish.

The so-called Jian, the elasticity of the pen bristles is good, that is, the elasticity of the pen waist, the pen is lifted after heavy pressure, the bristles are easy to be gathered after spreading, and it is easy to return to the original state after bending.

If the pen is elastic, it can be used freely;

Generally speaking, the elasticity of rabbit hair and wolf hair is stronger than that of sheep hair, and the writing is firm and upright.

After the pen is opened, press the pen again and lift it again, and the straight will be healthy. ”

Xu Qingbo talked about the four characteristics and characteristics of the brush in a catchy manner.

The surrounding scholars all wanted to look at him with admiration,

But it is not difficult to see from Xu Qingbo's remarks just now that he has indeed put a lot of effort into the way of calligraphy.

Compared with the little white scholars who have just entered the school, it is much more advanced.

"Yes, yes, what's your name," Lin Fuzi said two yes in a row, looked at Xu Qingbo and nodded with satisfaction,

"Back to Master, the student's name is Xu Qingbo,"

"Xu Shizi, you answered very well, sit down first," Lin Zhize motioned for Xu Qingbo to sit down,

Xu Qingbo glanced at Zhang Baiyi proudly, and slowly sat back in his seat.

This Xu Qingbo is intent on comparing himself to himself,

Zhang Baiyi smiled helplessly,

After Xu Qingbo sat down, Lin Fuzi looked at the scholars and said: "The four virtues refer to the function of the pen itself, and the inscription should also be taken into account when choosing the pen.

The so-called "use the pen of a certain family, write the words of a certain family".

To determine which kind of pen should be used, it depends on what kind of font you want to write: if the style is strong, choose Jianhao; The one with a charming and plump posture is soft; If it is difficult to distinguish between rigidity and softness, it is a combination of both.

The characteristics of the pen also affect the calligraphy that is written, so that the beauty of calligraphy can be achieved.

The stroke of the pen is the most elastic place in the stroke, which determines the direction and strength of the stroke, so there is a saying that "the main muscle and bone of the stroke".

However, the brush words without flesh and blood are not beautiful, so the calligraphy of the past dynasties is not only written with a pen edge, but must also use a vice.

The secondary millimeter controls the thickness of the stroke. The more the pair comes into contact with the paper, the fuller the strokes become. Therefore, there is also the saying of "vice milli rich flesh and blood".

The master taught the profession, and he talked about the essence of calligraphy in detail.

In the middle, Mr. Lin asked some more questions,

When the scholars saw that the master was very kind,

They all got up and answered,

If the answer is insufficient, Master Lin will supplement it,

Even if the answer is wrong,

Lin Fuzi will also praise him and say that his courage is commendable,

Lin Fuzi said seriously,

The scholar listened very carefully and seriously,

Time passed quickly,

When it came to Shen, after Lin Fuzi announced that he would leave school,

It's still early in the sky,

Zhang Baiyi copied the calligraphy according to the method taught by Lin Fuzi,

Lay out the rice paper, open the pen, moisten the pen, and put in the ink,

The ancients had a saying that "the pen is not too high".

For example, if the pen is used for "over the waist", first, it is very easy to appear "ink pig", and the pen cannot bounce back when it is lifted;

Second, it is easy to lead to the opening and closing of the pen;

The third is to greatly shorten the service life of the pen.

For beginners, there are often two extremes: one is that they dare not pave the way, and they write with a pen alone, and the words appear weak and weak;

The second is to spread out wantonly, and even write with the root of the pen, and the words appear bloated and warts.

Therefore, beginners should first pay attention to the correct use of pen position.

Zhang Baiyi went through what Lin Fuzi said in his head, adjusted his writing posture,

Copying the cursive script next to it, he worked the rice paper,

One stroke down, the clouds flow, the pen is like a cloud.

Zhang Baiyi looked at the words he had just copied on the rice paper, Zou frowned, not very satisfied,

sighed in his heart, the way of calligraphy is broad and profound, it seems that he still needs to work hard,

"Fourth,"

Just when Zhang Baiyi was dissatisfied with his work, he heard someone calling him at the door,

"Third child, why are you here,"

It was none other than the third Wang Yanzhao,

"I got out of school early today, Tianyin Pavilion is close to here, thinking that you shouldn't have left yet, so come and see, you are really still there," Wang Yanzhao said and walked to Zhang Baiyi's side,

Zhang Baiyi began to pack up the four treasures of the study,

After watching it for a week, he and Xu Qingbo were left in the house.

"Fourth, this is what you wrote," As soon as he arrived at Zhang Baiyi's side, Wang Yanzhao was attracted by the calligraphy that Zhang Baiyi had just copied on the table.

Picked it up, I couldn't help but groan: "Angry hair rushes to the crown, leaning on the railing, Xiaoxiao rain rest." Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, strong and fierce.
