Chapter 199: Inspiration

Gu Weijing tried to use the blessing candle of the muse, and chose the calligraphy and painting appraisal technique.

as expected

Sure enough, a message popped up on the virtual panel that it could be upgraded.

"Is it to activate the small candle of the muse and improve the quality of calligraphy and painting appraisal from excellent to famous? [Note: Current option, skill duration (336) seconds]"

Gu Weijing now understands that the skills of the system are from low to high, and they are divided into six levels: beginner, ordinary, sophisticated, master, perfect, and legendary.

Upgrade the quality of calligraphy and painting appraisal from excellent to master, and can use it for 336 seconds.

The duration is less than the 551 seconds that can last to upgrade a second-tier oil painting to a third-tier class, but it is not much more than the 2.3 seconds that Menzel's painting foundation experience is shorter and weaker than the perfection level.

Five minutes or so is already within the realm of practical use.

"I don't know what kind of effect the master-level appraisal technique has, is there enough time to complete an appraisal?"

Thinking about it carefully, Gu Weijing has never obtained a master-level skill.

According to the effect of his current two skills, Menzel and Knife Painting, he actually had some rough judgment on the preciousness of the skill of this quality level in his heart.

If it's a field directly related to drawing,

Legendary painting skills belong to super fierce people who can go down in art history.

At the top of the pyramid of this kind of painting all over the world, you should easily have a place.

At least the final painting effect of the legendary knife painting was a little shocking to Gu Weijing.

After acquiring the skills, he also looked up the works of some famous knife painters on the Internet.

Even Professor Boggs, who is known as the first person in the world to draw knife paintings, looks like the effect is almost meaningless, and it is difficult to say whether he is legendary or not.

The Perfect level is slightly less effective.

It is roughly at the top level of master painters.

The skill of painting is about equal to the limit of the pen that ordinary beings can achieve by hard work throughout their liveslv.9.

Usually, there may be only a few people in an art powerhouse who have this level.

As for the more marginal countries and regions on the art map.

Don't talk about lv.9,

A possessor who can reach the master level of a technique may not be able to make it up.

The level of skill at this level of skill can be said to be flawless, as perfect as its name.

If you change to a Japanese-style plot,

Usually those who have such a level of skills have to be a strong uncle who lives in seclusion in the mountains and has a face full of vicissitudes of life, and he will definitely burst his clothes and shout some heroic words before he starts writing, and he will be accompanied by glittering special effects.

The specific style of painting should probably be - "Hey boy, look at it!" This is the so-called dividing line between human and divine skills, and above it is the realm of heaven and man that can only be occasionally touched by talented people who are not one in a million!! Let your kid see...... What is the ultimate in the world! ”

The protagonist needs to find the right time to bow down.,The next page is to cut to a few years later, the protagonist has learned and succeeded.,The strong uncle finished telling the story of his own year and a certain evil painter in the world's first painter competition,When competing for the title of painting saint,Because the octopus balls eaten before the game were poisoned and unfortunately lost.,Fell into the root of the disease.。

After waiting for the strong uncle to hold the protagonist's hand and say something similar to "You are no longer under me now, just take back what I once lost for the teacher", and naturally received the lunch, and the protagonist buried the master, and he could go down the mountain with a small burden and hum a song to start a new plot.

Gu Weijing judged the previous two and the duration of the muse's small candle as the standard.

Elite skills and master skills,

If it is a pure drawing skill, the final painting effect should be stuck at the level of the best professional painter and the entry level master artist.

Thinking of it this way,

Using the muse's small candle to elevate the calligraphy and painting appraisal to the level of a famous artist is actually quite profitable.

Under normal circumstances, Gu Weijing needs to use the calligraphy and painting appraisal technique a thousand times, and each time it costs 50 free experience points, for a total of 50,000 experience points, to level up.

Through the exchange rate conversion of the exchange panel, that is, Gu Weijing will donate at least 500,000 US dollars.

Upgrading an oil painting to the next level only requires 10,000 XP. Upgrade two levels in a row, fill all the experience slots from the second level of the profession to the first level of the master, and only need 40,000 experience points in total.

The cost of upgrading is five times the difference in experience points, and the burning time with candles is only two-fifths less, which is very cost-effective.

"Can a master-level calligraphy and painting appraisal technique identify books?"

With this doubt, Gu Weijing tinkered on the virtual panel for a while.

He found that the three characters in the sentence "Upgrading the quality of calligraphy and painting appraisal from excellent to famous" were light blue, which was different from the font of other words.

Gu Weijing tried to click on it.

The system immediately popped up a concise prompt very intimately.

[Calligraphy and Painting Appraisal (Famous Level): After use, it will build a link of inspiration communication between you and the creator of the work. It is not limited to paintings, but it cannot be directly used in unfamiliar knowledge books. This can only be useful if you have established a strong understanding and knowledge of the work and are very familiar with the text. 】

[Note: The calligraphy and painting appraisal technique improved by using the Blessing Candle.] This use does not consume any free XP and is not counted towards the total number of uses.

meantime

The effect of the temporary enhancement is slightly different from that of the real calligraphy and painting appraisal technique (master level), and some special effects such as "trigger limited tasks" are castrated or limited. 】

"You can only play a role if you have established a strong understanding and understanding of the work, and are very familiar with the text. That means I have to have read the book beforehand? ”

Gu Weijing read the instructions on the system panel, and was happy to be able to use it, but also felt a little regretful: "It's a pity...... It's quite reasonable to think about it, if any unfamiliar book can achieve the effect of direct empowerment like a knowledge card after identification, it is too perverted. ”

If you can use it directly on unfamiliar texts.

Then in the future, when this skill has accumulated a thousand times, you can use it casually after the real upgrade.

Gu Weijing prepares to enter a program into his brain like Neo in "The Matrix", and throws this skill into various textbooks every day as long as he has time.

Reverie.

Other students are still studying all kinds of painting skills there.

He's here "Whew! "Shake off your skills and lose your skills, and you'll learn everything in a textbook you haven't read.

How cool that is!

Learn to draw in the morning, learn the theory of relativity in the afternoon, and learn to fly a helicopter or something during the lunch break, it is estimated that in a few months, he will be able to happily fight aliens.

"I don't know, my understanding of "The Little Prince" is considered a strong familiarity in the eyes of the system?"

Gu Weijing was still not sure in his heart, and he was already starting to prepare the canvas and paint in his hand.

"The Little Prince" is one of his most familiar readings.

Even without the help of Mr. Sloth, in order to draw a good picture, Gu Wei has gone through it many times over and over again for a month.

If there is any book Gu Weijing who thinks he is familiar with the plot, "The Little Prince" can definitely be regarded as one of them.

With this known information,

He felt like he could take a gamble.

The total skill only lasts for five and a half minutes.

In order not to waste, Gu Weijing took the lead in preparing all the canvas easels and putting the internal trial white paper of "The Little Prince" on the desk.

Then he chose the calligraphy and painting appraisal technique and lit the blessing candle.

On the virtual panel, a pulsating candle flame began to appear above the small candle, which was no more than an inch long, and the Arabic numerals above the flame gradually decreased in the form of a countdown.

【336】、【335】、【334】……

"Buzz!"

In the beginning,

After activating the skill, Gu Weijing didn't notice much change.

He just felt a soft buzz in his ears, like a tight cotton thread flicking quickly through his fingertips.

Gu Weijing subconsciously turned his head.

As far as the eye can see,

It was discovered that it was a colored scarab the size of a thumb knuckle of a palm, gently banging against the window.

The translucent wings flutter rapidly, and the insect's hard, tan, shell reveals a beautiful luster like molten gold in the glow of the bedroom lamp.

The scarab pursues the biological instinct to seek light from ancient genes.

It swooped down on his bedroom over and over again, again and again in vain, blocked by the crisscrossing fiberglass threads of the screens.

Cycle

Just like the lone knight who charges at a windmill in Cervantes' work, or the nocturnal elf who flies among the grass on a midsummer night.

Gu Weijing's heart moved slightly.

"When the greatest academic painter in the British Isles in the 18th century, Joshua Reynolds, painted the famous painting "Que", could he also happen to see a flying scarab by the window? (Note)"

He muttered to himself.

(Note: "Querc" is the name of the potion-gathering elf in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream.) This refers specifically to a painting that Joshua Reynolds painted for the flying elf in the play in 1756. The painting is heavily painted with hazy green-gold paint, making it the most outstanding masterpiece of Reynolds' career. )

"What a very nice and cute little guy."

Gu Weijing blinked, and this thought turned in his mind.

Wait a minute

He suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Hey, honestly, what's so cute about scarabs?

This is the most common pest in Southeast Asia.

Myanmar has a large number of various flying insects, which can cause a large reduction in the yield of crops, wheat fruit trees, and allergies caused by powder scales on the wing sheaths.

More critically,

They can also be very noisy when they sleep at night.

Sometimes, when I wake up in the morning and open the curtains, I can find three or four live, dead, half-dead beetles and other flying insects in the slides of the windows.

Gu Weijing is not a compassionate monk who sweeps the floor and fears the lives of ants and cherishes moths and lanterns.

I've never felt like they're worth getting close to.

He would only shake his head, and in disgust he cleaned up all the gadgets with toilet paper, and wanted to spray insecticide on the window to relieve his anger.

Odd!

If it weren't for the fact that the little insect in front of him now looks particularly in line with his aesthetics.

So......

The answer is already obvious.

It was Gu Weijing himself who had become more sensitive and sentimental, and a small insect would attract his attention.

Even the sound of a beetle flapping its wings should have been a very irritating noise.

At this time, in Gu Weijing's ears, it was also like a soft nocturnal sonata coming from the strings of a symphony orchestra's double bass.

"Inspired special effects?"

Gu Weijing felt his state, which seemed to be no different from himself just now, and it seemed to be different everywhere.

Switch to a more straightforward way of understanding.

If the virtual panel of the system at this time has a function like an RPG online game, all the values of a person will be marked in the form of data.

In the current state of Gu Weijing,

The corresponding value of his [Perception] ability is simply incredible!

Obviously, the outside world has not changed, Gu Weijing is so sober.

He had no hallucinations, no distorted rainbows on the walls, and no one who thought of the dark floor as a burning flame would have been seen on the walls like a drugged or neurotic person.

But everything is completely different.

Gu Weijing's eyes could easily catch the trajectory of the fine dust floating in the light line, and he could hear the insects and birds outside the window.

Even the uneven graininess of paint putty on the bedroom wall a few meters away can be clearly seen.

All this feels so novel, Gu Weijing seems to have first come to know this familiar and strange, wonderful and beautiful world.

It's like a person who has closed his eyes for ten years and opens his eyes again to adapt to the sun, and is like a chaotic and ignorant fetus reincarnated.

The five senses are strengthened like never before, and inspiration is like a wellspring.

He could hear the famous sentences of Shakespeare's plays from the flapping of the wings of the scarab, and he could also imagine the turmeric curves of a young crayon on the wall as a hazy lack of moon, on which Li Taibai was drunk with 3,000 pieces, and the shadows were three.

The beauty of the world,

All kinds of brilliance,

It's all in between.

Gu Weijing suddenly felt the urge to cry.

"It turns out that this world is so beautiful, but I haven't found it."

Gu Weijing stared almost greedily, listening, anything he could see and hear.

Everything can also bring him a special new feeling.

The brain receives information from the outside world at an unprecedented speed, and the mind rotates like light and electricity.

Because his mind is spinning too fast, his inspiration is like a weed in spring, and he doesn't want money to grow wildly, and even time seems to be set off and becomes extraordinarily slow.

Gu Weijing turned so many thoughts in his mind, from British drama to Chinese poetry.

The countdown on the virtual panel will be five seconds away.

In this state,

He felt that if he drew anything in any way, the final emotional rating should not be lower than [Feeling in the Heart].

"It's time to get down to business."

Gu Weijing quietly reminded himself.

With a little regret, he stopped thinking about the precious inspirations that seemed like jewels to think about, and took his eyes away from the incomparably beautiful things around him, and focused on the white cover of The Little Prince.

Moved by the heart.

A yellowish light curtain pops out of the virtual panel.

[Title: "The Little Prince"]

[Author: Saint-Exupéry]

[Familiarity of works: high (calligraphy and painting appraisal techniques can be used)]

"You can use the Identification Technique!"

Gu Weijing quickly swept his gaze over the other two books on the table, a page and a book to be exact.

On that page is a poem, Wang Wei's famous five-character quatrain "Painting", "Seeing the mountains from afar, and listening to the water silently".

The thick tome is Dickens's longest book, Dickens: Bleak House.

Before Gu Weijing lit the blessing candle, he was ready to prepare with a red heart and two hands.

There is only one chance to light a candle.

If the system requirements are too high,

Judging that Gu Weijing's familiarity with "The Little Prince" is that if he can't use calligraphy and painting appraisal techniques, time can't be wasted.

Gu Weijing was ready to use the identification technique in Wang Wei's poetry.

This "Painting" is the first poem he wrote from elementary school, the whole article is a total of 20 words, Gu Weijing he will memorize when he is four years old, it should belong to the most well-known text, it will not be good.

Dickens's Bleak Hill is a recommended reading list for students from the tenth grade onwards of Dulwich in their English grammar class.

There are some classic passages, and they have rehearsed the drama in groups in class, but there are too many chapters and verses, and Gu Weijing is just hastily turned over it.

belongs to the category that has read and has a general impression,

Well...... It may be roughly similar to the average Chinese score in the second-rate middle school in Dongxia, and the level of understanding of "Dream of Red Mansions" by ordinary students who have no literary plot?

The reason why Gu Weijing deliberately singled out this book was to see by the way what the specific criteria for the system to have a "strong understanding and understanding" of a book were.

In the future, if the treasure chest continues to open a blessing candle, he will have a standard for judging.

With a quick sweep of his gaze,

There were also two earthy yellow virtual panels that appeared in front of Gu Weijing's eyes.

Similar to what he began to think, Wang Wei's "Painting" can use authentication techniques, and the level of familiarity is also high.

And "Desolate Hills" is more miserable.

The familiarity didn't even get the "medium" evaluation, just a pitiful "low", and the option in the column of whether or not to use calligraphy and painting appraisal is also gray and unselectable.

"That is to say, it is not enough to read it generally, it must be the kind of understanding that is ripe before you can further use the calligraphy and painting appraisal technique."

Gu Weijing basically has a concept.

The quiz took him another ten seconds.

At this point, there are 320 seconds left in the countdown on the virtual panel.

Time is precious, Gu Weijing didn't have time to think about it, he directly launched a master-level appraisal technique directly against the white paper.

In the next moment,

Boom!

The book "The Little Prince" exploded directly.

【…… If someone loves a one-of-a-kind flower that blooms in the vast sea of stars. Then, when he looks up at the stars, he will be satisfied......]

【…… He would tell himself, "My beloved flower is there, on that distant star." ”】

【…… But if the sheep eats the flower. Then, for him, all the stars will dim in an instant! 】

【…… When you really like someone, you will think a lot, and it will be easy to do stupid things and say stupid things......]

Saint-Exupéry's fairy tales were instantly shattered into hundreds of thousands of words and sentences, and these jumping letters, like a sea bursting on a broken embankment, rushed into Gu Weijing's mind.

He clenched his fists suddenly.
