"Can you grow 16 rows?" An Kang pretended to be surprised, "I don't believe it! Then you draw and see. An Kang smiled.

In fact, Ankang didn't really want to see Zhao Gongzi draw 16 rows of trees. He knew that most of the people present didn't actually understand what this question meant, and what the difficulty was.

Let Zhao Gongzi draw a picture, which is easier to understand than the text description. And a picture is both a reading and a solution.

Zhao Gongzi asked the shopkeeper for a pen and a white cloth. Clean up the dishes on the table and draw them on a white cloth. It seems that this Zhao Gongzi, like An Kang, also likes to show off after mastering this skill. Without even thinking about it, he quickly drew a picture.

Then Zhao Gongzi threw the pen into the air, sat on a chair leaning over, and looked at An Kang proudly.

Not only Xiaoxi, the young boys, but even the diners also gathered around. They looked at the picture and drew their own tree planting diagram in their minds. No matter how you design it, you can't have more than 16 lines.

Diner A: "I have long heard that the son of Master Zhao is rich and rich. When I saw it today, it was really amazing! ”

Diner B: "When I saw Zhao Gongzi today, I knew that there were people outside the world, and there was heaven outside the sky." ”

Diner C: "I once heard my teacher ask this question, but unfortunately the teacher only wanted to come up with eleven lines until he died. Zhao Gongzi is really a genius! ”

Boy A: "That's. Brother Zhao's talent and character are incomparable. Where can this kid be compared? ”

Zhao Gongzi smiled lightly but squintedly at An Kang: "16 lines." How is it? Thou shalt come out more than I do, and today I will kowtow to thee and confess my sins. How is it? ”

"That's a good idea!" An Kang smiled, "Then you should kowtow your head first!" ”

"You!" Zhao Gongzi jumped up from his chair, "This...... This...... This impudent and shameless man. Miss Xiaoxi, how can you be with this kind of person? It's disgusting! ”

Ankang said: "Don't talk about those who have or don't. If I win, you kowtow to me, right? ”

"Exactly. What if you can't win? Zhao Gongzi squinted.

"Can't win. I will take this sword and die before you. Ankang picked up a sword from the ground and placed it on the table.

"Xiaokang, you ......" Xiaoxi stood up nervously.

"Don't be nervous." An Kang smiled at Xiaoxi.

"Good! Today, I'll see how you died in front of me, Master. ”

"Hahaha. Well said, well said! Let me think. Isn't it just planting trees? I used to plant trees every day in my hometown. I'm the best at planting trees. I want to think about what is the best tree to plant. After saying that, Ankang sat down.

"Well-off, this ...... It's not a question of what tree to plant at all. Xiaoxi reminded.

"Hahaha." Zhao Gongzi smiled proudly, "This person is a reckless man with courage and no strategy." ”

This is certainly not a question of planting trees. Otherwise, how could Zhao Gongzi, who had never planted a tree, show his skills in planting trees to others all day long. Zhao Gongzi has never planted a single tree, but since then his reputation has become even louder.

People often compare this Zhao Gongzi with another talented young man, Song Xiayang. However, most people think that this Zhao Gongzi is smart and intelligent, and he is afraid that he is above that Song Xiayang.

It's just that the ancient pretending boy unfortunately ran into a modern pretending boy.

Ankang sat there rubbing his temples and muttered, "Or, let's plant bamboo." Bamboo grows faster than trees. The...... Your surname is Zhao, right? I don't plant trees anymore, can I plant bamboo? ”

Zhao Gongzi listened to An Kang's words, leaned forward and leaned back with laughter, and pointed at An Kang with his finger for a long time speechless.

When he had laughed enough, he pretended to be serious and said, "Yes, you can plant whatever you want." If you like to grow bamboo, plant it. As long as the number of lines is more than my 16 lines. ”

An Kang smiled: "You said it earlier, it made me think about it for so long." Shopkeeper, bring a pen and a cloth! ”

Pen and cloth were brought.

An Kang drew an ink bamboo tree in the corner of the cloth.

This was learned by Ankang in a calligraphy class forced by his parents when he was in junior high school. The calligraphy teacher felt that no matter how much the student learned calligraphy in ten classes, it would be useless, so he simply spent half a class teaching him to draw bamboo.

Ankang calligraphy has not been learned, but the bamboo painting is still presentable.

It took only two minutes to finish the ink and bamboo painting.

Everyone was shocked when they saw the bamboo painted by Ankang.

In this era when even paper was a treasure, there were many people who used brushes to paint, but basically they were very primitive white drawing techniques. For example, in an ink painting like Ankang, which integrates the expression of light and shadow in Western sketches, there are thick and light, thick and fine ink painting techniques in one stroke, which ordinary people may not see in their lifetime.

A few simple strokes, but the bamboo is painted like bamboo, and the bamboo leaves are painted like bamboo leaves.

Everyone was amazed.

Even Xiaoxi was secretly amazed.

I didn't expect this well-off who can only fight to draw so well.

How did she know that Ankang only learned half a class of Chinese painting. And he can only paint bamboo, and nothing else.

An Kang threw the paintbrush into the air and smiled at Zhao Gongzi: "The bamboo painting is finished, don't you look like it." ”

Zhao Gongzi's nose was crooked: "I'm not asking you to draw bamboo, I'm asking you to plant twenty trees." ”

An Kang suddenly realized: "Oh, yes, that's right. I almost forgot about planting trees. The shopkeeper, bring a pen again. ”

The shopkeeper looked at the two brushes on the ground, and felt a wave of guilt in his heart, so he had to ask the shopkeeper to bring another pen.

While everyone was surprised by Ankang's artistic achievements, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh: "It's a pity that such a person has a little bit of a bad brain." If you say that you can plant trees, how can you draw bamboo? ”

Ankang took the brush handed by the shopkeeper, tilted his head and thought for a long time, and asked Zhao Gongzi: "What about the cloth you just painted?" ”

Zhao Gongzi pouted proudly, and a young man unfolded the cloth to An Kang.

An Kang took the brush and made a few strokes on the cloth in the air, shook his head and said, "No! ”

Zhao Gongzi was even more proud. He looked at Xiaoxi and said, "Miss Xiaoxi." This one...... It's called well-off, right? He is a good hand at fighting, but he is knowledgeable...... Alas, I'm afraid that if I marry a good man in the future, I will also be a very unreasonable guy who will only beat his wife. ”

Xiaoxi knew the intention of Zhao Gongzi's words, and was noncommittal, but looked at An Kang worriedly, thinking of ideas in his heart to see if he could resolve this crisis. After all, this incident was caused by itself. Xiaokang is innocent.

The comment area is very hotly discussed.

Boy A: "Don't think about it. Zhao Gongzi's 16 rows of trees are not only unrivaled in my new city. Even if you look at the Great Song Kingdom and the entire Great Zhou Empire, no one can beat it. ”

Young B: "This is an eternal problem, don't you know?" What to draw bamboo to plant trees? It's up to you, no matter how well you can plant trees, you can't plant 16 rows of trees like Zhao Gongzi. The 16-line tree is already the swan song of the world. ”

Diner A shook his head again and again: "No solution!" No solution! ”

Diner B nodded repeatedly: "Wizard!" Wizard! ”

Ankang and the others talked a little quieter, shook their heads and said to themselves: "However, if you plant like this, you can only plant 18 lines." No, no, no. ”

"Can you grow 18 rows? Hahaha. Zhao Gongzi laughed heartily. It's ridiculous!

The teenagers burst out laughing.

The diners laughed in unison.

Xiaoxi's brows furrowed.

The woman in black craned her neck and took another sip of the wine in the jasper gourd, as if she had seen or heard nothing.

"Well-off, well-off, you are too little for 18 lines, do you still want to plant 20 rows?" Zhao Gongzi shook his head and sighed: "Treacherous and cunning. You don't have to think about it, you can't think of it for a lifetime. Also 18 lines. Joke. The sword is on the table, and you can do it yourself. ”

"Wait, don't interrupt my train of thought!" An Kang waved his hand and shook his head in a pretended contemplative manner, "This won't work, up to 20 lines!" ”

"Hahaha. Crack someone up! ”

The crowd laughed even harder.

The bustle upstairs has long attracted the diners downstairs. They listened to others tell what had happened before, and then looked at the picture on the table with the sixteen rows of trees, and they all cast reverent glances at Zhao Gongzi, and sneered at the young man who was holding a brush and pretending to be a pen but did not dare to put it down.
