On the second floor of the Starry Tower, the gray sky is low and the clouds are low, and there is an atmosphere of mountain rain coming.

Qin Mo stood in the forest of steles, looking around continuously, with a slight look of anxiety on his face.

He'd been on this level for half an hour, and he hadn't been able to find a way through it until now.

There was no one else in the huge stele forest, and it was impossible for the sixty-six people who came in before to pass the level so quickly, or be kicked out, and there was only one explanation for the current situation - after everyone came in, they were all facing the stele forest alone.

The only consolation is that there is no time limit on this level, but even so, people still can't help but feel nervous.

He decided to go to the center of the stele forest first and see if he could find a clue from there.

Dozens of zhang forward, the terrain began to slowly become higher, and he saw that there seemed to be a stone tablet with a different shape in front of him, its height was more than one zhang, and nine lifelike coiling dragons were carved on the top.

Could it be the Imperial Monument?

He quickened his pace, and when he got closer, he found that this stele was extremely strange, the body of the stele was one foot thick and three feet wide, and it was unusually smooth, but there was not a word on it.

The coiled dragon on the top of the stele is exquisitely carved, and the stele base is divided into three layers, each layer is also finely carved, with the main flower pattern of entwined branches, there are peonies, lotus flowers and rhododendrons.

He circled around the stele, and on the south-facing pedestal lay a brush and an inkstone with ground cinnabar.

"Could it be that the test of this layer is to write on the stone tablet?"

Because the stele is black and gray, it is not possible to write on it with ordinary ink, but red cinnabar, which is also known as Danshu.

After a few moments, he was almost certain of his guess.

But the question arises, what to write?

He didn't even know who this monument belonged to, so he couldn't write it in a hurry, and he would definitely be driven out of the holy tower and end this journey to enlightenment.

After some careful observation, he found that there were only two stone tablets within a radius of three tablets, namely the "Duobao Pagoda Tablet" located in the east and the "Mysterious Pagoda Tablet" in the west.

"Duobao Pagoda Tablet" is the great calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty Yan Lu Gong's book, is the early representative work of Yan Ti, highly respected by the calligraphy Mengtong, there are many people who study it.

"Mysterious Tower Tablet" is the representative work of Liu Shaoshi, another great calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty, which is also highly respected.

Yan Lugong and Young Master Liu are called Yan Liu, and there is also a saying about willow bones and Yan tendons, which is enough to show the depth of their attainments in calligraphy.

Qin Mo frowned slightly, he didn't understand why these two steles were located on the left and right of the wordless stele, did their existence mean something?

And it is very strange that "Mysterious Pagoda Stele" can represent Liu Ti, but "Duobao Pagoda Stele" does not fully represent Yan Ti, because it was written by Yan Lugong when he was about forty years old.

Although he was already a master of calligraphy at that time, he did not form his own style, let alone reach the point of perfection, and later wrote "Yan Qinli Tablet", "Magu Xiantan Ji" and other works in both penmanship and glyphs, there are obvious differences.

In the academic world, "Duobao Pagoda Tablet" represents the strict Tang Kai, but as a person who likes Yan Ti, it has become an entry at most, and if you want to really learn Yan Ti, it is not enough to study "Duobao Pagoda Stele".

That's strange, Yan Liu is also known in the world, why is Young Master Liu's side a masterpiece, but Yan Lugong's side is an early work, it's unreasonable!

Qin Mo's brows furrowed, not knowing what the reason for this situation was.

He walked to the front of the "Duobao Pagoda Stele", looked at the neatly handwritten inscription, and said to himself: "Yan Lugong's early calligraphy was extremely rigorous, which can be called a model of Tang Kai, and it is precisely because of this that even if he has not reached the peak of his personal calligraphy level, he is still respected by later generations......

Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with some excitement: "Could it be that its existence is to prove the Tang people's concept of the rigor of regular calligraphy?"

In terms of regular script, it is an indisputable fact that the Tang people still have the law, but after the Great Song Dynasty, the calligraphers changed the previous idea of emphasizing the law, but paid attention to the expression of people's style and personality, and regarded the artistic conception as more important than the law.

Tang people focus on "law", Song people focus on "meaning", it is precisely because of this new thinking, created people called "Su Huang Mi Cai" of the four families, Su Shi natural, Huang Ting Jianjian, Mi Fu Zongyi, Cai Xiang Yun, all are distinctive, each with a good demeanor.

Qin Mo was overjoyed, thinking that he had found the right direction.

If "Duobao Pagoda Tablet" was replaced with "Yan Qinli Tablet", he would definitely not have thought of the word "law", let alone extend to the "artistic conception" that has attracted more attention now.

"Whether it's success or failure, it depends on the next word. ”

He returned to the front of the wordless stele, reached out and picked up the brush, dipped the tip of the pen in cinnabar, and then took a deep breath and landed the pen on the stele.

The first stroke is a dot, the second is still a dot, and the third is still a dot.

The three dots each have their own demeanor, forming a three-point water, and then write a short horizontal on one side, then write a vertical with a Tibetan Feng penmanship, and then write a long horizontal with a Tibetan Feng penmanship, then a short straight skimming, and then horizontally, and finally a long point, and the action of returning to the pen.

On the stele, there is an additional word "law" that combines artistic conception and law.

The word is the law, and the shape is Tang Kai, but the writing method pays more attention to personality, which can be described as the perfect combination of law and artistic conception.

With a calm expression, he put down the brush, and when he raised his head, he just saw the handwriting on the stone tablet flashing, similar to the scene when [Single Words Become a Soldier].

Knowing that he had succeeded, he raised the corners of his mouth and a look of joy on his face.

Shout!

The handwriting disappeared, strictly speaking, it was integrated into the stone stele, and at the same time, the "Duobao Pagoda Stele" and "Mysterious Pagoda Stele" on both sides also shone brightly, and after blinking an eye, it became the same wordless stele as it, and the surface was extremely smooth, but there was not a word.

Qin Mo suddenly realized, this means that if you were someone else, it would not be these two monuments, and they would encounter different test questions.

Thundered!

There was a sound behind the wordless monument, and the ground shook immediately, and the stone steps broke through the earth, like crazy vines, reaching into the sky.

This was the staircase leading to the third floor of the Starry Tower, which once again proved that Qin Mo had passed the test of this floor.

He was just about to step away when the wordless tablet suddenly emitted a silver light and landed above his head.

Immediately, a whirlwind blew in the Wen Palace, and the rotation speed of the cyclone and the stars increased at the same time, and he immediately checked it.

The other cyclones and stars have not changed, the only thing that has changed is Wendao Huixin, the word "Hui" composed of more than a dozen small cyclones is slowly getting bigger, more than double the size of before, with the acceleration of the rotation speed, a large amount of literary power is generated around.

Wendao Huixin has been upgraded!

You must know that it was an intermediate cyclone when it was generated, and it was upgraded to a high-level cyclone in less than a month, and it is believed that it will soon be promoted to a higher-level star.

For scribes, in addition to daily cultivation and absorbing aura, every time there is an additional cyclone or star in the Wen Palace, the strength will increase by one point correspondingly, and the existing cyclone and star upgrades can also achieve this effect.

After a few breaths, Wendao Huixin no longer grows, and the other cyclones and stars return to their previous rotation speeds, and the Star of the Holy Dao hides itself, and the Wenwei Star hangs high above, which is the center of the circle of the cyclones and stars.

Qin Mo opened his eyes, clenched his fists at the wordless tablet with a respectful expression, and said solemnly: "Thank you, the student is grateful." ”

Although the wordless tablet is a dead thing, Qin Mo still thanked it, which is the foundation of a gentleman.

He glanced back at the dense stone monuments, walked around the wordless monuments, and walked towards the staircase leading to the sky.

"How long do you have to climb so high?" he looked up at the towering ladder, feeling a little bottomless, but he still raised his foot to step on it.

Sou!

He was sucked by a powerful force, and his body involuntarily leaned forward, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

After a few moments, the ladder retracted into the earth, and the ground returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened, and the stone tablets on both sides of the wordless monument flashed with new handwriting, ready to welcome the next child.

Qin Mo stumbled, he tried his best to stabilize his figure, and then found that the scene in front of him had changed, and it was a shadow wall again.

This time, the shadow wall is made of blue bricks, one zhang long and six feet high, and the middle part is flattened with white lime, and several children have gathered in front.

Qin Mo appeared out of thin air, but several children did not show surprise, indicating that they were accustomed to the appearance of newcomers in this way, and one of the children closest to him hugged his fists and said: "This brother is polite, in Wei Shu, the Wendao Academy of Lower Tokyo Prefecture, it is fate to meet here, and he is also a scholar and a child, and he dares to ask the name of Brother Ren." ”

This person looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a gray-blue brocade robe, a scribe's scarf, a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and a folding fan in his hand, dressed like a child of a famous family.

Qin Mo stabilized his emotions first, and then returned the courtesy: "Qin Mo of the Wendao Academy of Xiayi County, the contemptible brother is reasonable." ”

The other party's eyes lit up and said, "You are from the Xiayi County Academy of Literature, I heard that there is a double-class boy in your county, won't it be Brother Ren?"

Qin Mo waved his hand modestly and said, "Qin Mo is not talented, he is just lucky, and he obtained the name of Shuangjia Tongsheng by chance, which is really not worth mentioning." ”

"It's really Qin Shuangjia, in the next word Wenyou, dare to have a table for Shuangjia?" Wei Shu is a self-acquaintance, his face is full of enthusiasm, as soon as he heard that the other party is a Shuangjia child, he moved to make friends, without the slightest pretentiousness.

Qin Mo arched his hand again and said, "Contemptible people are Ziyi." ”

"Brother Ziyi. Wei Shu also saluted him again.

Qin Mo smiled and asked, "Brother Wenyou, you have already come here, why don't you go in?"

Wei Shu replied: "Brother Ziyi doesn't know, the gate of the third floor opens every half an hour, and up to twelve people can enter each time, and now there is still some time before the gate opens, so everyone is waiting." ”

After saying this, he pointed to the shadow wall and said, "Before the door is opened, the handwriting will appear on it, which is the assessment content of this level. There are already two groups of people in front of them, and it is said that there are very few people who have successfully cleared the customs. ”

"Thank you, Brother Wenyou, for your advice. "Qin Mo thanked him, he once heard Gu Meng say that the third layer of the Star Tower is a hurdle, the assessment content is very difficult, and if you are not careful, you will make mistakes, and many elites are sinking in this layer.

Wei Shu waved his hand and said, "What's polite, it's not worth mentioning at all." ”

At this time, someone pointed to the shadow wall and said, "Look, everyone, the handwriting has appeared!"

On the white shadow wall, the black block letters gradually become clear, each word is the size of an adult's fist, and a person next to him reads to the handwriting content: This field is a test of answering questions, children choose their own brushes and tables after entering, the content of the exam paper appears on its own, the time limit is a quarter of an hour, up to twelve people, and the candidates need to do what they can.

In the face of such content, many people are embarrassed, obviously they are not sure about this test and want to wait for the next one.

Wei Shu was also a little uncertain in his heart, and asked, "Brother Ziyi, can you enter?"

"Of course. Qin Mo cut the railway, he believed that the next topic would not be too simple, since stretching out the head is a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, why delay time, there is no point.

Wei Shu took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go in too, let's take care of each other together!"
