Chapter 232, peach blossom as the theme!
"Who is so lacking in virtue that he instigated people to start fighting immediately?"
With this in mind, the crowd looked in the direction of the person who spoke.
A middle-aged man in a white shirt, with long hair scattered and a huge gourd in his hand, stood at the back of the crowd with a smile and a groan. The stopper of the gourd opened, revealing a rich aroma of wine. After only a short period of effort, it already makes people feel that the courtyard is full of fragrance.
The middle-aged man has broad eyebrows and eyes and an ordinary face. But those eyes were as black as ink, blazing with energy, and the whole face was brought to life. It's unforgettable.
"Master Gu is hereβ" Someone bent down and saluted the middle-aged man.
It turned out that the person who spoke was Gu Huangwu, who was known as the 'double wall of calligraphy and painting', and was also a famous teacher of the starry sky, the owner of the Taohuawu Painting Academy.
All kinds of anecdotes about him can be arranged into a wonderful collection of stories. Li Muyang had admired him for a long time before, and it was only today that he saw the deity.
"I've seen Master Guβ"
"Hello Master Gu, what is Master Gu going to teach today?"
"Master Gu is joking-"-"
Gu Huangwu lined up the crowd, walked to Li Muyang and Chu Ning Song Zhiyun and stood still, looked at Li Muyang's eyebrows and eyes seriously, and said with a smile: "What's your name?" β
"Li Muyang."
"It's a slippery guy." Gu Huangwu said loudly.
Li Muyang was secretly annoyed in his heart, suspecting that this so-called famous master of the starry sky had been bought by the Zephyr royal family. How can you be so partial to others as soon as you meet?
"What? Not convinced? Gu Huangwu saw through Li Muyang's thoughts, and after lifting the gourd and pouring a sip of wine, he said with a smile: "I watched you for a long time on the side, and found that you kid really has some ability to turn his hands into clouds and cover his hands for rain." Seeing the stitches and inserting needles, demagoguery. Never miss a single small opportunity. β
Li Muyang arched his hand at Gu Huangwu and said, "Gu Shimiao praised. Others deceive people too much, and I just argue with reason. β
Gu Huangwu nodded and said, "That's your business, it has nothing to do with me." However, in my peach blossom dock, I only compete in painting skills, and do not use swords. Fighting and killing is the most boring thing in the world. β
"When you cut down with a sword, all your arms, thighs, and heads roll off, and blood splatters, disgusting, cruel, and smellyβhow chic and pleasant is drinking and writing, and painting the beauty of the world?"
There is a martial style in China, countless teenagers are eager to slay dragons, and countless students hope to become starry sky powerhouses one day.
If someone else says that 'fighting and killing is the most boring thing in the world', I am afraid that I will be scolded to death by those who practice martial arts. But when these words came out of Gu Huangwu's mouth, not only did everyone not feel abrupt, but they felt that it was unusually pleasant to hear.
Gu Huangwu looked at Li Muyang and Song Zhiyun, and said: "I heard just now that you are going to compete and compete, since you are in the art academy, you have to follow the rules of my art academy - why don't you two take the beautiful scenery in front of you as the theme, and each paint a work for everyone to evaluate." What do you two think? β
Chu Ning's eyes lit up, knowing that his chance to get back to the field had come, he immediately answered and said, "Master Gu's proposal is very good, I have no opinion." β
The royal family of the Chu clan originally had a talent for painting, and Chu Ning learned painting skills from court painters when he was a child. Although the painting skills are not on par with those famous painters in China, they are already outstanding among the younger generation.
Chu Ning thought about it, Li Muyang was a young man in cloth from Jiangnan City. It is said that he used to be a useless waste, and he should have known nothing about painting techniques. Competing with him in painting is simply a victory.
In this way, he not only won back the face he just lost. It also showed the people around him the rich accumulation of the Chu royal family. This has an excellent effect on the overall image of the Zephyr royal family.
Worried that Li Muyang would refuse, Chu Ning glanced around with a smile and said, "The students who can enter the Starry Sky Academy are all Terran elites, we must not only have the power of reaching the sky, but also have elegant sentiments. It is good to practice martial arts to break through the realm, and it is even better to write and paint. Both civil and military, this is the real hero of the starry sky. β
"The people who come to this academy today must be sincere lovers of calligraphy and painting. Isn't it an elegant thing for us to use the beautiful scenery in front of us as the material to inscribe poems and paint? If this kind of thing spreads, it will only make our Star Academy famous. Do you think so? β
Everyone said yes.
Wubi is exciting, but Wenbi is just as tempting.
In this peach blossom dock with excellent scenery, splashing ink in front of the famous teacher of the starry sky, and competing with others for talent paintings, it is really pleasing to the eye. It's a lot more fun than fighting, killing, killing.
Gu Huangwu looked at Li Muyang and asked with a smile, "Li Muyang, are you willing to fight?" β
Li Muyang smiled bitterly and said, "Master Gu, this is the first time I have come to the academy, and I have never learned to paint before-"
"Shepherd-san is too modest, isn't he?" Chu Ning had a 'sweet' smile on his face, and said out loud: "You are the first in the West Wind Empire's literary examination this year, and Yan Bolai, the lord of Jiangnan City, calls you the 'Pearl of Jiangnan', how can such a talent be the first time to contact painting?" Don't you want everyone to appreciate your masterpiece? β
Qiandu didn't want to embarrass Li Muyang, so he said loudly: "Let me fight on behalf of Li Muyang." I have also studied Danqing for a few years, and I have a little experience. You can have a good discussion with all of you. β
Chu Ning glanced at Qiandu with an unkind look, she didn't like any woman who was more beautiful than her. This is also the reason why she dislikes Lu Ji extremely much. The woman's cheeks looked almost unblemished, and she was proud and cold, and there were many chasers. And there is an extremely dazzling purple hair, which is said to be born - are you a princess or am I a princess? You're going to steal the limelight alone.
"Who are you? Why do you want to replace Li Muyang? If I can replace it, then I will simply invite one of the great powers in the court - do you still need to compete? Chu Ning smiled, but the words he said were extremely harsh.
Qiandu's face was calm, and he said, "Are you back to being a princess now?" β
"It doesn't matter if you win or lose, the important thing is to let Gu Shi help us comment and advise, so that we can improve quickly and benefit greatly. If you're hell-bent on winning, you're losing your heart in this competition. β
"That's true." Gu Huangwu said loudly.
Li Muyang stopped Qiandu with a loud voice, and said loudly: "Since they want to compete, then I will compete with them." It just so happens that I have also studied some painting techniques in the past few days, and I hope it can come in handy today. β
Chu Ning was secretly happy, looked at Li Muyang and asked, "You have agreed to the competition?" β
"Not bad." Li Muyang smiled and nodded. He looked at Gu Huangwu and said, "It's rare to be able to let Gu Shi comment in public. How could I miss it? β
"That's good. Since you have no opinions, let's start the game officially. Gu Huangwu took a sip of liquor and said, "This place is called Peach Blossom Dock, and the two of you will take peach blossoms as the theme and make paintings." Then it will be judged by everyone, and the one with exquisite technology and far-reaching artistic conception wins. Can you have any objections? β
