Duan Qiu wanted to see the real dragon, he had only heard the legend, and even if he had seen it, it was only a hand-drawn manuscript of the ancients. If you can see the real dragon here in Shaokang, it will definitely be worth inviting him this time.

"No one has ever seen dragons for nearly a thousand years, and where are they, I don't have this blessed fate. There's just one picture here. After Shaokang finished speaking, he took out a piece of microscopic paper from his arms, and the paper was spread on the coffee table. Everyone gathered around to watch, and the original images had been converted into digital files, which was Shaokang's transfer of all the images to microscopic paper in order to better preserve the image materials. The image on the microscopic paper was adjusted to the maximum, and he made it possible for everyone to see the dragon's face.

"It's a pity that this is the technique of the Oriental School of Painting, which only conveys its charm and does not depict specific details, if this is an oil painting, the value of this picture will be priceless." Shaokang said regretfully, "Since there is no oil painting, if someone knows Western-style sketching at that time, it would be good, not only can convey the spirit but also draw the details of the body clearly." ”

Duan Qiu, Bai Silu, and even Yuan Shou, who had a big brain, squeezed his head in. They were all wondering about the authenticity of this picture. To say that the author of this painting is indeed of a very high level. From the point of view of painting techniques, it has reached the height of peak. Whether you understand art or not, you will be shocked by this charm when you see this ink dragon. In the painting, the dragon is in the shape of a soaring dragon, with its feet suspended in the air and its wings spread, and the tension of the two wings seems to swallow the heavens and the earth. The huge wings drive the entire air current, and the clouds and rain are absorbed into the cyclone generated by the wings.

The dragon's tail swayed from side to side behind him, the dragon's neck was raised, and the dragon's head was looking downward, and from the dragon's point of view, he was glaring at the dangerous object. The dragon's mouth opens and sprays frost from its mouth, and the picture shows the frost using the white color of the original rice paper. The dragon's mouth sprayed frost to divide the picture into two, and white became the most eye-catching highlight of this picture.

The ink color makes the whole dragon extremely substantial, fortunately this man only painted an ink dragon, if this is an oil painting dragon, is this dragon going to fly out.

Bai Silu looked at the picture repeatedly, and thought for a long time before daring to ask tentatively, "How can this dragon be a Western-style dragon, he should be an oriental dragon?" This is clearly an oriental technique, drawing a Western-style dragon. ”

Bai Silu's reminder, Duan Qiu nodded to indicate that he also agreed with Bai Silu's point of view.

His question was responded to by Yuan Shou at the same time, and Yuan Shou was also puzzled, "Lao Bai is right, I said how to look at this dragon and feel wrong." The Oriental Dragon is a long, and four-catcher, which I have seen in the movies. This dragon is Western, yes I can be sure. This man is using the ink paintings of the Celestial Empire to copy the evil dragons of the West. Grandpa, you didn't save the wrong picture, did you? Or is someone using this thing to lie to you,"

"I'm glad you can say that." Shaokang explained, "Just because I am an elder, I didn't believe everything I said. Then I would like to ask a few of you, since what you said is reasonable and well-founded, have you ever seen the real Oriental Divine Dragon? ”

Shaokang's rhetorical question made several people present speechless. Yuan Shou pondered, this is really the reason. Not only are they powerless to refute, but they are also speechless.

Duan Qiu was also in his heart, and he immediately asked, "I haven't seen any dragons either, let alone dragons haven't seen them, and unicorns haven't seen them either." Since you haven't seen it, how do you know that this dragon is a real dragon. ”

"I think everyone knows one thing, the dragon of the Celestial Empire has evolved over thousands of years, and the original physical characteristics have been deliberately modified and beautified." Shao Kang's reminder, Duan Qiu and they nodded to understand that they ignored people's worship of the dragon and at the same time carried out secondary artistic creation on it. Shaokang also said, "It is impossible for a dragon with a slender body like the Celestial Empire to live in the cold north, and such a dragon can only live in the tropics. Dragons living in the north are to be strong and muscular. The size is even larger than that of the average southern dragon. They need physical strength to withstand the harsh climate, and they also use their muscular bodies to fight more ferocious beasts. ”

"And a beast more ferocious than a dragon?" Yuan Shou asked incredulously, "I see that on this picture, this dragon can really spit things out of its mouth." What other creature of such a strong creature can restrain him? ”

"Of course, everything in the world is mutually reinforcing. Heaven never allows one creature to dominate the world, he always finds one creature to restrain another. Shaokang said, "The only creature that can restrain the dragon is people." ”

No one can imagine how to deal with such a dragon in a primitive society with the rudimentary tools in their hands. "This dragon is spewing extreme cold." Shao Kang replied, "Not to mention the ancient times, it is not easy to deal with it now. I heard my uncle mention that the lowest temperature of this dragon can make steel weak, and instantly seal people in ice mounds. It can reduce the temperature of the surrounding area by two or three hundred degrees, of course, it is also passed on by word of mouth, and it can only be regarded as a fairy tale for future generations. ”

"If there are dragons, how can we not see them now? Even the remains should have appeared? There is nothing, only the description of the dragon," the mountain interjected.

"Because dragons are too scarce." Shaokang said, "A large number of creatures like the unicorn are called auspicious once they see it, and once the dragon appears, it is often regarded as the true son of heaven who is about to appear." There are not many records of the real dragon in the ancient books, and some records only use the name of the dragon to create their own momentum. ”

"Teacher? You said that there are many unicorns, but no one has found them now. If there are unicorns, then what is recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas is that they all really exist? Bai Silu asked guessingly.

"Many have existed," said Shao Kang, "and I can testify to this, at least I once raised a strange beast recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas, shaped like a turtledove, and chirping like people scolding each other. It was bought for me by a teacher, and this bird is very spiritual, and it sticks its feathers on its body so that people will not be confused. ”

After Shaokang finished speaking, he took out a gray-white feather from his clothes, and the feather in his hand did not show anything special, no different from that of an ordinary bird. All three of them looked at each other one by one, and just one feather could resist confusion. The eyes of the three people were full of doubts, and Shao Kang said with a smile, "Although it is common to say that you are confused, it will make you stay calm, and it will also make you see clearly the tricks of the caster." ”

"Someone sells these things too?" Guanshan asked curiously, "Is there anything else, I want to buy one." ”
