Chapter 4 Painstaking Understanding
The surging divine dragon, with an extremely strong oppressive force, almost made Huan Chang's liver and gall crack. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Definitely!"
At this moment, Xu Yu suddenly wrote the word 'Ding' in the air, and the dragon that rushed out of the calligraphy and painting suddenly stopped in the air.
"Extinguish. ”
Xu Yu wrote the word 'extinguish' again, almost condensed into substance, and the divine dragon that was dancing its teeth and claws suddenly disappeared.
Huan Chang personally felt the power of the divine dragon, and immediately stared at Xu Yu with burning eyes, but instead of the slightest fear, his face flushed with excitement.
"Is this the ability to enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting?"
Xu Yu put down the brush and said with a smile: "How is it, is there a new experience?"
Huan Chang didn't speak, just nodded vigorously, his eyes full of longing.
He also hopes that one day, he will be able to reach the level of a master.
As if seeing through Huan Chang's thoughts, Xu Yu Zhengse said: "In terms of talent in the way of calligraphy and painting, you have to far surpass me." ”
"As long as I work hard, I will one day be able to enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting, and the achievement will be above me. ”
"At that time, you can directly cross the realm of ascending to the hall, comprehend the true qi from the Dao, and become a true martial artist in the realm of entering the room. ”
When Huan Chang heard this, he was even more excited.
Although the martial artists of the Kyushu Continent have a high status, it is very difficult to become a martial artist.
Take Yang Feng as an example, he started practicing martial arts ten years ago, and now he is twenty-five years old, and he can only reach the peak of the realm.
Yang Feng wants to cultivate his true qi from the outside in, and he doesn't know how long it will take, and he may even be stuck here forever.
However, as long as Huan Chang can comprehend something, he can directly cross the realm of ascending to the hall and become a master of the realm of entering the room, which is completely a step to the sky.
While being delighted, Huan Chang also felt a little puzzled, and asked: "Master, ordinary martial artists can only have true qi after cultivating external skills, and only after practicing Dacheng can they have true qi." ”
"In this way, wouldn't the physical strength of these ordinary martial artists be much stronger than mine?"
Horizontal cultivation is a great achievement, even if an ordinary sword is slashed on the body, it will not be seriously injured, if these people cultivate true qi, it will be even more terrifying.
Huan Chang was also worried that he would be much weaker than those martial artists who practiced true qi from the outside in.
Xu Yu laughed when he heard this, and said, "If you can have true qi, you can use your true qi to temper your body from the inside out. ”
"As long as you persevere, your physical fitness will also increase significantly, and it will not be much worse than those martial artists who have cultivated their true qi with the method of horizontal training. ”
Hearing Xu Yu's words, Huan Chang breathed a long sigh of relief, and his face showed an expression of eagerness.
Seeing this, Xu Yu said with a serious face: "Although you are talented, it is not easy to enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting. ”
Huan Chang said calmly: "Please also ask the master for advice." ”
Xu Yu said: "If you want to enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting, you must be able to integrate the spirit and spirit into calligraphy and painting to achieve the finishing touch." ”
"At that time, the words you wrote represented your own will, and the paintings you made could also become a weapon of murder. ”
"In fact, with your current realm, it is only a line away from the realm of calligraphy and painting entering the Tao, maybe as long as there is an opportunity, you can reach the point of finishing touch. ”
"It's just that you need to grasp this opportunity yourself, and no one can help you. ”
Huan Chang nodded heavily and said, "The disciple knows." ”
Xu Yu smiled with relief, and then said: "You don't need to paint anything else in the future, just go into the mountains and be accompanied by rhubarb every day." ”
"As long as you can draw a picture, condense your own spirit and spirit of the tiger roaring in the mountains and forests, and give life to the tiger, you can achieve the finishing touch. ”
"Instead of scattering your energy, it is better to specialize in one, this is true of martial arts, and the same is true of the way of calligraphy and painting. ”
As for Rhubarb, it is a huge tiger.
This tiger came to the village to hurt people, but was subdued by Xu Yu, and never dared to hurt people again.
It was precisely because of that incident that Yang Feng knew that Xu Yu, a bad old man who was addicted to alcohol, was actually a hidden master.
That's why Yang Feng apprenticed.
Since then, the people in the village have become much more respectful to Xu Yu's master and apprentice.
Huan Chang got the master's explanation, and immediately his heart was knotted, and with full enthusiasm, he went to the mountains every day to be accompanied by rhubarb.
......
In the mountains and forests, a fierce tiger stands tall.
The tiger is majestic and awe-inspiring, but there is a hint of humanized helplessness on its face.
Not far from the tiger, Huan Chang is sitting on the ground, with a drawing board in front of him, holding a black brush, engrossed in sketching the image of the tiger.
As time passed, a tiger appeared on the rice paper, lifelike.
Even the best painters would feel ashamed of themselves when they saw this picture of a tiger roaring in the mountains.
The fierce tiger roaring mountain forest in front of him is more lifelike than the calligraphy and paintings that Huan Chang sold in the city at the beginning, with a different kind of majesty.
This painting, if it is sold to those dignitaries who know the goods, can even be sold for a sky-high price of 100 silver.
In fact, every painting of Huan Chang is no worse than those works of everyone, and even surpasses it.
This is also why, Xu Yu explained to Huan Chang at that time, and calligraphy and painting should not be sold cheaply.
It's just that Huan Chang is painting now not to sell for money, but to comprehend the realm of the finishing touch.
"Hey, there's still a hint of charm. ”
Huan Chang put down the brush in his hand and looked at the tiger that had been drawn, not only did he not show the slightest smile on his face, but his brows were tightly furrowed.
With a deep sigh, Huan Chang actually tore the picture of the tiger roaring in the mountains and forests to shreds.
Fragments of paper, drifting in the wind, scattered in the mountains and forests.
The tiger standing in front of him, seeing Huan Chang's move, the corners of his mouth and beard couldn't help but shake a few times, and there was deep helplessness on the tiger's face.
Huan Chang himself, as if he hadn't seen the tiger's expression, was a little depressed.
He shook his head and said to himself: "This is already the ninth painting of the Tiger Roaring Mountain Forest, but it has never reached the point where the master said that it is the finishing touch. ”
The finishing touch is a very high level in calligraphy and painting.
To achieve this, it is necessary to give life to the flora and fauna in the work, so that they can live for a short time.
The tiger that Huan Chang is painting now, although it is already very charming, is always a little bit worse, and there is never a way to reach the realm of the finishing touch.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Huan Chang felt deeply tired.
It is definitely not an easy task to create nine paintings of the Tiger Roaring Mountains and Forests in a row, each of which embodies all the spirit and spirit.
"The master said that painting is the same as practicing martial arts, and you must not be greedy for merit, so let's stop today's practice. ”
Huan Chang took a deep breath and looked up at the tiger standing next to him with a helpless face, but there was a smile on his face.
He took a few steps forward, came to the tiger's side, gently stroked its neck, and then said, "Rhubarb, thank you so much for today, my homework has been completed." ”
As if he could understand human speech, the tiger immediately roared, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
smiled and scratched the itch for the tiger, but Huan Chang said: "I will come to you again in a few days, and I will definitely show the majestic figure of Rhubarb." ”
The tiger, who was originally surprised, fell again.
Huan Chang laughed a few times, then picked up his painting basket and said to the tiger: "Rhubarb, go play by yourself, don't hurt people." ”
After speaking, Huan Chang walked down the mountain step by step.
This is the territory of Rhubarb, there are no other beasts at all, and Huan Chang is not afraid of being attacked.
On the way back, Huan Chang kept thinking.
He felt that he was only a little bit away from reaching the finishing touch.
"What's missing?"
Writing and painting, you must be calm, during this time Huan often keeps cultivating himself, and has always been unfazed.
But now, Huan Chang can't help but be a little impetuous.
After returning home, it was already night, and Huan often lay on the bed and tossed and turned, but it was always difficult to sleep.
"Ah Chang!"
I don't know when, Xu Yu had already come to the bedside and called softly.
"Master. ”
Huan Chang was shocked and hurriedly sat up from the bed.
In the dark night, Xu Yu's eyes were as bright as a galaxy, and he said: "Continuing to be with rhubarb in the mountains can no longer make you break through." ”
"From today onwards, you will go to various villages to exorcise evil spirits for the villagers. ”
"Exorcism and tranquility?"
Xu Yu nodded and said, "I once told you that if you want to enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting, you must integrate your spirit into it. ”
"The words you write represent your will. ”
Huan Chang savored Xu Yu's words, and remembered the two words written by the master that day, but he was shocked in his heart.
Until now, Huan Chang still remembers that after the word 'ding' was outlined in the air, the galloping dragon could no longer move.
Subsequently, the word 'extinguish' made the ferocious dragon disappear.
The two words that Xu Yu wrote in the void at that time also represented his own will, which is the real way of entering the Tao with calligraphy and painting.
"Master, I understand. ”
Hearing Huan Chang's voice, Xu Yu was overjoyed, and then left the bedroom.
"Accompanied by rhubarb for less than a month, the painting of the tiger roaring mountain forest created can reach this realm, such a qualification is rare in the world!"
Even if he is as picky as Xu Yu, he is very satisfied with Huan Chang's performance.
In the following period, Huan Chang did not enter the mountains again, but walked in various villages and helped many villagers.
Some of the children were frightened and cried every day, but the villagers could not cure them if they brought in a witch doctor.
After Huan Chang passed, he wrote the word 'Ning' on the rice paper, and then put the rice paper next to the child, and the child stopped crying.
Some villagers shouted and scolded each other, and no matter how much others tried to persuade them, they still blushed and had thick necks.
After Huan Chang passed, a tune was gently played, and the villagers who were fighting with each other slowly quieted down.
Later, Huan Chang gave each of the two sides a 'and' character, and within three years, the neighbors never quarreled again.
Huan Chang's magic also made the villagers regard him as a Wenqu star, and was respected by many villagers.
For a month, Huan Chang continued to feel the finishing touch in this way.
He seemed to comprehend every time, but he always did not succeed.
"After all, it's still a little bit off. ”
