Chapter 19: A Tragedy Caused by a Painting
with the town of the board.
"Cut, old man Onoki, what information do I want to collect? Is the master a servant? ”
Deidara walked down the street, holding a string of takoyaki in her hand, complaining dissatisfied.
Although the town is not big, it is very lively. On both sides of the street, there are a variety of izakaya and ryokan restaurants. Although Deidara does not have a heart to collect information, he has a great sense of eating, drinking, and having fun by taking advantage of official duties.
"Uncle, may I ask how to go about the art exhibition held in the town?"
The uncle at the stall greeted him warmly: "Is the young man here to see the art exhibition?" From here, go west to the end, and you're just a corner! ”
This art exhibition has brought a lot of vitality to the town, and by the way, it has also brought a lot of business to these merchants.
These days, merchants, samurai, monks, including ninjas, all kinds of people have seen a lot of this uncle. Therefore, he is very enthusiastic about Deidara.
"Young man, have some soup powder!"
"Oh! Thank you, uncle! Deidara was stunned for a moment and took the soup powder from his uncle's hand.
When Deidara arrived at the venue where the art exhibition was held, it was a little sparsely populated because it was early afternoon.
The venue was huge, and Deidara easily blended in. There weren't many people in the venue, but most of them were gathered in one area.
Deidara also leaned over and saw that what everyone was arguing about was a painting called "Life", what did the author express?
Deidara glanced at the painting, her big eyes wide open, and her face full of excitement.
.......
"Are you sure?"
Haishu stood outside the arena as a ninja quietly walked up to him.
"Yes, my lord, we just saw the scorpion walk in. What are its intentions? ”
"I see, this is the place of the great merchant Jiuzong. Don't act yet, let me tell you about Lord Kuzong! ”
As an elite ninja, with the support of his intelligence, it is too easy to find someone.
Soon, he found Kumune drinking tea after eating in a teahouse on the street.
"Kumune-sama!"
Haishu came to Jiuzong's front and bowed his head slightly.
"You are?"
"I'm the Kamishinobi Sea Tree of Sand Hidden Village. At this moment, an S-class traitor in my country has infiltrated the venue where you hold your art exhibition. We would like to beg your permission to let us enter and arrest him! ”
I thought that for safety reasons, Jiuzong would agree to him. However, after hearing this, Jiuzong shook his head and looked unwilling.
"The exhibits in the venue come from all over the world, and most of them are acclaimed artists from all over the world. Not only the country of birds, but also the daimyo of your country, Akashi, and the seventeenth son of the daimyo Boya, their works are also exhibited. The stakes are high, and I can't promise you this matter lightly! ”
"But that guy is an extremely dangerous person, let him get into it, I don't know what will happen?"
"In short, you can't do it in the stadium."
Jiuzong's attitude was very firm, and he did not waver in the slightest.
.......
in the venue.
The art exhibition was supposed to be quiet, in order to express one's artistic accomplishment and respect for the artist's work.
It's just that now, the controversy over "Life" has reached a white-hot level, and even the buzz in the venue continues.
Seeing the crowd arguing in the venue, Deidara secretly said in her heart, a group of turtles, let the uncle tell you what real art is!
It's just that Deidara just came out to pretend... No, when sharing art. In his field of vision, a red-haired guy stepped out first.
"This painting declares the art of life, from the artist's brushstrokes, the choice of paints, to the layering of the scenery, all of which express a theme, that is, the beauty of life. The fact that the author is able to express this eternal beauty shows that his artistic attainments are very high and he is not below me. ”
Deidara listened to the red-haired guy and nodded, and was about to praise it when the guy continued.
"So, what is the beauty of life? That's eternity! Passing on the eternity of art is what the author wants to express to us! ”
"That's not right!"
Deidara immediately objected, and the eyes of everyone, including the Red Sand Scorpion, were focused on him.
"The author is portraying the beauty of life, and I agree with that. However, judging from the thickness of the lines, the vividness of the colors, and the astonishing impact of the whole painting, the author wants to express that the beauty of life lies in the moment. Only a moment of beauty can reveal the true meaning of life. ”
The Red Scorpion and Dilarda glanced at each other, both with disdain in their eyes.
"No way. Although the lines of this painting are thick and powerful, they are very long, going around and around, and there seems to be no end between the layers of transformation. That continuous feeling clearly speaks of eternity! ”
"You just see one thing, the lines are long, but the whole structure is very expansive. Just like the feeling of explosion, the impact of that moment is the true beauty of art! ”
"Nonsense!"
"You-stirring stick!"
"What did you say, yellow-haired?"
"Red-haired, that's you!"
Seeing that these two people were about to fight, the onlookers next to them didn't know who said it.
"I heard that this painting was painted by the bird shadow of Luyin Village, don't you know if you go and ask the author himself?"
The two suddenly realized that they looked at each other.
"The yellow-haired one has the ability to go to Luyin Village with me!"
"Go and go, whoever doesn't go is a grandson. When the time comes, I'm going to show you what real art is! ”
.......
Shikakure Village, Leader Yashiki.
Ye Cang successfully handed over the task, and at this moment, Shikamaru was getting together with Xiao Nan, Yahiko and others to eat hot pot.
"Ye Cang is back, let's eat hot pot together!"
"What is hot pot?"
"This guy created it! But the taste is really good! Xiao Nan took a slice of venison and soaked it in the mandarin duck pot. After a while, the meat slices with thick chili oil came out of the pot. Xiao Nan ate it in one bite, and the whole person felt hot.
Ye Cang was attracted by the hot pot and quickly joined in, and halfway through the meal, Ye Cang suddenly remembered.
"Shikamaru-sama, that painting is already on display, but everyone is arguing about what it is?"
Shikamaru scratched his head and said, "When I ate hot pot that day, Xiao Nan snatched all the meat and vermicelli I loved, what a beast." I woke up the next day and remembered the cute meat and vermicelli floating in the hot pot, so I drew this picture. ”
“........!”
"Then why did you call this painting 'Life'?"
"I feel a pang of sadness when I imagine all this lovely meat and vermicelli being wasted by this foodie. As a certain great man said, a hot pot without meat and vermicelli is incomplete, and an incomplete hot pot is a desecration of life. ”
“........!”
