"I'm sorry, but I don't really have much experience with painting. Leo replied, in full view of a group of artists or art lovers, who, who knew nothing about the art of painting, would not dare to express his opinions indiscriminately, which would only put himself in an even more embarrassing situation.

Wells couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he nodded understandingly, after all, art covers a wide range, no one can cover everything, and the teenager in front of him is still very young, and it is normal that he doesn't know much about painting.

Thinking of this, he asked, "So, which art do you know better?"

Leo opened his mouth and almost shouted out online novels and movies, but when the words came to his lips, he hurriedly carried out artistic processing: "I usually like literature and drama. ”

"Oh, that's it. Wells glanced at the "famous poet" wiki and said, "Maybe this kind of collection will appear next, and I look forward to your opinion." Now let's move on. ”

In addition to Leo, the people who came to the art rally were naturally prepared, and all kinds of rare and rare artworks emerged in an endless stream. Poems, paintings, ancient stone carvings, master-made musical instruments, exquisite jewelry, any one of them is worth a lot. After the discussion, the artwork was placed around the hall for everyone to continue to enjoy.

Leo could see that these things were good, but what was so good, he couldn't say anything about it as a science student. However, to my surprise, the collection included some magical items, and they looked like they were from ancient times.

Ignoring the crowd around Wells, judging a statue, Leo carefully observed the crystal vase in front of him. Since he has not expressed any opinions, he has gradually become a forgotten person.

The vase is about 30 centimeters high, and the shape is very elegant, but what interests him the most is the wonderful texture engraved on it. Leo could recognize that the texture was some kind of magic circle. But maybe it's because it's been a long time, and the magic array has become invalid, so I can't see what function it has at all.

Sensing that Leo was interested in the vase, the owner of the vase, a man in his thirties, walked over and said with some pride, "It's beautiful, isn't it?" ”

"It's really beautiful. Leo nodded sincerely, and said curiously, "May I ask what is the function of this magic array?"

"Magic Circle, who cares about that. The man cracked the corners of his mouth, as if thinking that if art involved magic, it would become vulgar: "I'd like to hear what you think of its design, can I?"

Leo was speechless for a moment, and then said, "Its shape...... Well...... It's beautiful...... Beautiful......"

"That's all?" said the man, though he had a good upbringing. But he still couldn't hide the disappointment and disdain on his face, and at the same time wondered why Wiki would invite such a vain person to an art gathering.

At this time, a high-pitched voice sounded: "The collection I brought today is the second edition of the original manuscript, which is 3,300 years old, and the second copy has not been found yet, and it is likely to be a unique piece!"

It turned out to be an old man holding up a heavy yellowed book in his hand and announcing it loudly.

The heated discussion erupted again, and the owner of the vase glanced at Koo with disdain. Deciding to ignore the guy who didn't understand anything, he turned to the crowd and joined the discussion.

"It's not a way to go on like this. Leo thought with a wry smile. He didn't particularly care about being despised by others, after all, he really didn't know much about art. But if it makes a bad impression on Wisser, it is quite bad.

In desperation, he had no choice but to walk towards the crowd and immediately saw a few ancient words on the book in the old man's hand: the Epic of Deniga.

"Huh. I think I've seen this. Leo's heart moved, and he recalled the original memories of this body.

After a moment, he smiled. I actually read the book, and I remember it very clearly, and soon the whole content was excavated.

"The artistic expression of the Deniga epic is quite high, and at the same time, as the earliest epic of the chronicle, it enjoys a very high status in the entire literary history. And Deniga is a wonderful person's life, which is no less than any online novel, and it is definitely a standard dragon Aotian! Hehe, fortunately, I have taken the "Homeric Epic" appreciation, and I should be able to apply it. ”

After gathering his thoughts, Leo went to the wiki that he was discussing with Wells and said, "This is my favorite epic. ”

Vicky looked back and was pleasantly surprised, "Really? I love this epic the most!"

After saying that, he winked at Leo encouragingly, hoping that the other party could express more opinions, after all, the people he brought to the rally would be very embarrassing if he didn't have any expressions.

"Of course it's true. Leo smiled understandingly, and continued: "Do you think that the heroes created in the Denega epic, such as Denica, Abydis, Dominic, Catherine, etc., are all realistic and romantic at the same time, both legendary and full of realism, both common to human heroes and distinctive personality traits? In terms of characterizing the characters, the characters are placed in the midst of heavy contradictions, and their language and actions are depicted, such as the conflict between Deniga and Catherine, the conflict between Abydis and Dominic, etc. And the most ups and downs are the decisive battle between the Star and Moon Coast and the orcs! Several heroes can unite and lay a solid foundation for the prosperity of mankind!"

"That's right!" Vicky's exaggerated response, drawing everyone's attention, "I'd like to hear your artistic analysis of this epic." ”

"That's a great question!" Leo was secretly delighted, and the artistic analysis of Homer's epic was the only assignment he had completed in the elective course, and he immediately said: "In the art of creating epics, the first thing to mention is the two most basic creative methods of realism and romanticism that have appeared in epics. The wars and characters depicted in the epic are not only elements of ancient myths and legends, but also portrayals of ancient social life. ”

............

Leo talked endlessly, and the vocabulary of various professional literary evaluations was endless, so that many people who originally underestimated him had to re-examine him.

Wells even muttered in his heart: "He's really good at literature, I'm just going to write a long lyrical poem as a birthday present for the wiki, maybe I can ask him to help read it when I'm done." ”

Leo's voice grew higher and higher, and he decided to end the performance with a deafening final paragraph.

"So what I want to say is that art comes from life, but it is higher than life!"

"Whether it is poetry, drama, painting, sculpture, although their existence cannot make us live more comfortably, it can enrich our eyes, moisten our ears, warm our hearts, really add color to our lives, and make our lives more meaningful!"

The passionate words came to an abrupt end, and the hall was silent.

Wells muttered: "Art comes from life, but it is higher than life......"

The wiki repeats: "Make our lives more meaningful......"

After a while, someone always reacted and applauded enthusiastically: "Well said! What a wonderful comment!"

"This passage can definitely be published in Artist Weekly!"

Then someone said, "Oh, we really should have a drink for such a classic summary!"

"Yes, you must have a drink!" the man who had previously despised Leo was the first to chim.

Seeing that they were really ready to have a drink, Leo found that he seemed to be the only one who had no wine in his hand. He was about to go to the side to get it, when a servant with a tray came up and whispered, "Sir, do you need wine?"

"It really needs it, thank you. Leo nodded, picking up the only glass of red wine on the tray.

Before he could feel it clearly, Wells raised his glass with a little excitement and said loudly, "Let's toast to art!" (toast to our new friend Leo!......)
