Eighty-four, painter

"Please return the items on the ticket. Chi handed the pawn ticket to the shopkeeper of the paper man. The shopkeeper of the paper figure took out the items according to the number on the pawn ticket - it was the eight treasure bracelet that Chi had made a month ago.

"The ransom amounted to 2,400 gold coins. "Chi Yiyan has paid. This is one of the few items that the patriarch has given to Chi since he was a child, and of course he must cherish it. As for the money, Chi, who has always been very poor, went to the casino, so I don't need to say more!

As soon as he put on the bracelet, a guy rushed in and pushed Chi away, shouting, "I want to redeem my paintbrushes and painting tools, hurry up!"

This impolite guy smelled of alcohol all over his body, and he was about sixty years old, and one of his front teeth was missing. His hair was all white, as if he hadn't combed it in months, and his clothes were covered with grease stains, typical of a bad old man.

"Mr. Solo Tong, is your ransom ready?" the paper man asked.

Suo Luotang slapped the board with his hand: "Hurry up, hurry up, why are you talking so much nonsense." ”

The paper man had no choice but to take out the painting tools: "The ransom is 841 gold coins." ”

Solo Tang snatched the painting tool and hugged it in his arms: "Child-I'll take you home." "Turn around and go.

The paper man screamed in a hurry, but the old man was too drunk, and when he turned around, he stepped on his right foot with his left foot, and fell down, and after a while, there was a snoring sound.

Red blinked: "It's so stylish! ”

The paper man used to take the painting tools, but Suo Luotang hugged it too tightly and couldn't drag it. Chi asked, "The inhabitants of the Protoss get countless gold coins every month, doesn't this old gentleman have any money?"

"Hey! All the money is spent on drinking. ”

Chi was stunned for a while, and met a fellow practitioner. Take out a bag of gold coins:

"Shopkeeper, I paid for this, do you know where the old gentleman's house is?"

......

Due to the fact that the consul of the No. 8 Divine Domain, Ma Draft, raised the first level of warning but found nothing, and at the same time, S.X.I, who was the leader of the black-clothed squad, spread unfavorable remarks about Ma Draft's son, Horse Draft, and Ma Draftsa had to hold a public meeting to clarify the facts.

About 20% of the population of the Divine Domain came to the conference square to participate in the meeting (the number of people is already very large). First of all, Ma Draftzheng explained the reason for sounding the vigilance, and showed the attitude of the No. 8 police to the light. Naturally, Chi said that he was extremely evil, and he just wanted to rush up and beat his father, but he didn't, because Chi said before leaving: Be kind to your father, I have only seen my father once, so I know how happy people with fathers are.

After about 20 minutes of talking, Ma Shuzheng asked his son to give a speech on stage, and whispered as he passed by: "There are a lot of people here today, don't mess up." ”

Ma Yantian ignored him, cleared his throat and went on stage. There was silence in the audience. In fact, the purpose of everyone is to see how Ma Zhitian refutes S.X.I's remarks.

Ma Titian said: "I know that everyone has always looked at the 'Evil Light' in a different light, but I have to say two things today: 1. The Evil Light is a figure with a great soul and my eldest brother who has just become a sworn monk; 2. He has never killed a Protoss, and I guarantee this with my life. ”

When the words fell, there was an uproar in the audience, and sighs arose. One of them even shouted, "What did the stinky boy say? Get down." Ma Zhengzheng almost fell to the ground with his eyes: this kid is really not a public figure, and he doesn't know how to cater to the public's tastes at all.

Ma Yantian and the other boos quieted down a little, and said calmly: "If everyone is surprised enough, please allow me to tell a story." ”

Everyone knows the content of the story, but this time the protagonist of the story is serving a terrible old man in a terrible house.

Solo Tang vomited, finally felt comfortable, and the person was a lot more sober, and said, "You sent me back?" nodded barely: "You drank too much." Solotang asked again, "How did you find my house?"

"The shopkeeper said that the worst house in the city is it, and it is easy to find. ”

"Damn, a paper man dares to say that about me, see if I don't flatten it. Saying that, Solotang turned over and got out of bed: "Wait, where is my painting tool?"

Chi handed him the painting tools from the table on the side: "Here." Solo held them in his arms like a loving father.

Chi stood up and looked at the paintings hanging on the four walls, and asked, "Are you a painter?

Solo Tang shook his head: "It's all worthless things. Chi smiled: "Who said that? I look good." ”

Suo waved his hand and said, "If you like it, take it! "Are you willing to do it?

"It's been a thing of the past. Suo grabbed a bottle of wine and poured it in a big gulp: "Now the gods and men are obsessed with economical, fast and real spiritual mirror reflections, and my craftsmanship is not comparable at all, and no one will take a fancy to these." ”

Chi Yi smiled and said to one of the paintings: "The border of this painting is yellow, it is inferred that it has been painted for forty years, if you really don't pay attention to them so much, then you should have thrown them away a long time ago, but don't you have them?"

After drinking, Suo was blushing, and his temper became bad again: "It's about you, get out! ”

Chi took two steps back: "I'm sorry, I said something I shouldn't have said, I'll leave." So saying, he went to pick up the paintings on the wall. Suo yelled, "Hey, hey, what are you doing?"

"Didn't you say take it with me?"

"I regret it now, you put it down. ”

At the end of the day, I still care about these paintings. Chi smiled: "I paid for the 841 gold coins, what do you say?"

Suo fell on the bed: "In addition to painting and painting tools, you can do whatever you like, you can beat me." "What a laid-skinned old man.

"Your painting is your painstaking work, and I don't take it. There are no valuable belongings here, and of course I won't do anything with an old man, so I have to ask you to paint a picture for me. ”

"It's been a long time since I've done it. ”

"I have faith in you!"

"Okay!" Solo Tang turned over: "Don't blame me for painting out of tune, what do you want to paint?"

"Just ask to draw someone for me. ”

"Go and bring him! I'll make it better. ”

She ...... Dead, dead ten years ago. ”

"Oh, that's right! The image with the spirit mirror is fine. ”

Chi paused for a moment, and said a little ashamed: "When I was young, I was ignorant, and I thought that we were together every day anyway, so I didn't have a single spiritual mirror reflection on my body." ”

Suo shook his head: "This is really difficult. ”

Equator: "So I want you to paint it with me." ”

"It seems like that's the end of it. Suo picked up a large pile of waste paper: "Let's draw the face first, and then change it and paint it again, and then I will officially start after the face is formed." ”

"I'm sorry for you. ”

"It's a real problem. Suo took out sixteen drawing pencils of different thicknesses and softness: "But there is almost no one to help you except me." As he spoke, he shook his head, and the strength of the wine went down, and his face was no longer red. It seems that this old man is usually the same, when he is drinking, and when he is painting.

In this way, Chi Lai described that Solo Tang came to write, painted and changed, changed and painted, and was busy until late at night. In the nineteenth picture, Equator: "There are already nine images, but her eyes are the kind of eyes that shine on the earth in spring." ”

Suo took a sip of coffee: "I understand when you say that." "I worked hard to write the book, but in a quarter of an hour the twentieth sheet was completed. Chi only felt that his eyes lit up, and he was in a trance as if Shuling had been reborn. Suo Luotang looked at Chi and smiled: "It seems that this one is passed." Okay, I know what it looks like, now I'm going to start drawing. ”

Equator: "I'm not in a hurry, let's paint again tomorrow! It's getting late." Solo Tang smiled and shook his head: "No, no, no! It's been a long time since I've been painting like this." I was so excited that my blood was boiling, and I wanted to use my life's painting experience to complete this masterpiece. ”

Chi was not strong enough for him, so he had to say, "Then please." ”

Cableway: "Sketches, brushstrokes, paintings, oil paintings, oriental ink and watercolors, by the way, engravings, which one do you want to paint this painting?"

Chi was shocked: "Do you know all this?"

"Old man, I have devoted forty years of energy to painting, what can't I do?" said Solo Tang proudly.

Chi pondered for a moment and said, "Then please use the essence of each painting method!"

"What?"

"Her heart is so rich, so rich that no style of painting can express her beauty in case. So please use all the paintings!" "I know this will make it difficult for you, but please believe it, -- she is really so rich in my mind!"

Solo Tang stopped speaking, his eyes were amazed, and he vaguely felt that the moment he had been longing for had arrived, ―――――― it was an opportunity and a challenge.

"You're really going to have a problem! It's challenging, I like it. Solodo made up his mind and neatly took out the rice paper for standard paintings: "Different kinds of paintings have different requirements for paper, and to fulfill your requirements, you can only use this kind of banana paper, which is known as 'paper treasures'. ”

"Plantain paper?"

"That's right, it is to cut the stem of the plantain into almost transparent silk, and then weave it like a mat, zuihou After a series of fine processing, it has become the plantain paper in front of you, which combines the performance of all kinds of paper and is worth more than a million. ”

Chi exclaimed, "Wait, this is too costly." ”

"Shut up, do you think I'm just helping you?" to be able to push the limits of painting, which every painter dreams of!"

Whew, Suo has already drawn the first stroke.

This painting will hold all my hopes and passions, and if this painting is broken, then I will not die and it will be useless.

......

For dozens of days after Ma Draft's public meeting, people were talking about the speech genius. His speeches changed from the old tune of catering to the masses, and used his unique passionate tone to guide the minds of the masses, so that everyone could follow his thoughts into a new world. In that world, he was the king who controlled the emotions of the masses at will......

Only Ma Zhitian himself knew what kind of genius he was, but he was baptized by a frenzied and flaming spirit.

"Big brother, are you okay now?"

......

But the masses are also dissatisfied, that is, when someone in Zuihou asked the real name of "Shaguang", Ma just stared at the sky blankly: "The eldest brother said that he has no name, and he is now going back to his distant hometown to resurrect his long-lost name." However, everyone is still full of confidence in Ma's ability, and they are looking forward to the excitement of Ma Zhutian in the next speech. Unbeknownst to you, in a dilapidated wooden house, an incomparable wonderful event was going on.

"Mr. Suo, you better take a break! You've been painting for thirty-nine days. Chi persuaded bitterly.

Solo Tang took a big sip of wine, and the whole person was so thin that only skin and bones remained: "Hehe, the body of the god can stand it, and the painting addiction is coming, and I can't stop if I want to." ”

There was a sudden burst of blood boiling in his chest, and he hurriedly twisted his face to the side and spurted out a mouthful of black blood.

Equator: "No, I must not let you paint any more, you have been working for thirty-nine days." ”

Solo Tang glared at Chi: "Quickly give me the No. 5 drawing pen." ”

"Hey, sir, you're ......."

Solo Tang grabbed the No. 5 drawing pen and pressed it towards a gem on Shuling's headdress.

At one point, the whole painting suddenly has a spirituality, and the mountains, waters, and people on the painting come to life.

"It's done!"

Suo's whole body went limp, and he fell. Chi hurriedly helped him.

Suo said softly, "I-am you good at drawing?"

Chi solemnly glanced at the painting, the face of the painted figure is a sketch sketched by a fine-core drawing pen, the hairstyle is drawn by a cartoon to be delicate and elegant without losing a trace of ladylike atmosphere, the clothes are ink and ink edges, watercolor flowers, a long skirt is long and covered to the ground, but the grass does not have a trace of vulgarity. There are also grass engraved with engraving, and wild flowers with oil paint. The mountains in the distance and the clouds on the horizon are faintly brushed with ink, which makes people even more fascinated.

And the most amazing thing is that several completely different painting styles are naturally fused together, which can be said to be the magic of magic.

"A peerless treasure, the most haode painting I have ever seen. ”

Solo Tang smiled: "Yes, I have to say - it's worth 10 million. "Close your eyes slowly.

He was so tired that he needed to get a good night's sleep.

When he woke up again, it was three days later. Although it is still a picture of skin and bones, his face has turned bloody.

Chi handed over a cup of coffee: "You've been sleeping for three days, and it scared me." ”

"Think I can't wake up?" said Solo Tang.

Then he almost squirted out, and asked, "Hey, where is the painting on the wall?" His hands gripped Chi's arm tightly, almost scratching Chi's hand for blood.

Equator: "I hung them all out of the wall, to be exact, I held an exhibition with your paintings. ”

"Bastard, who told you to do that?" Suo forced himself out of bed, "It's blasphemy to let those guys see my paintings." ”

Chi said calmly: "Everyone likes it very much!"

Suo was stunned for a moment, and his movements couldn't help but stop.

"Everybody likes it, and everyone praises it. One kid even said he wanted to be your teacher. It's not what you think. You think that everyone is obsessed with film and abandon pictures, but in fact, film can never replace painting, because only the paintings created by you painters can convey the beautiful charm outside the picture. ”

Suo's eyes were a little blurry: "Nasty guy, why are you doing this for me?"

"I'm not here for you!"

"Huh?"

Chi pulled out half of the dragon slashing: "This sword is one meter six long, one foot wide, weighs eighty-two pounds, extremely sharp, it is the first weapon I have ever used, and it has accompanied me through countless battles, it is called 'slaying the dragon', and it was created by the most famous swordsmith in the world." Although he kept saying that he had built this sword to vent his dissatisfaction with the world, and that he did not desire anyone to use it, when I raised it, he was as happy as a child. Because he knows that a truly peerless weapon can only realize its value when it reaches the battlefield. In the same way, your paintings can only realize their value if they are recognized by the world. My sword may be broken, but I don't weep in it, for its formidable edge proves that it is priceless. Then Your Excellency will be glad to do this, because they are your children!"

Suo Meng twisted his head to the side, and let out a slight whimper: "I hate it, why do you say such sensational things?"

......

Next.

Equator: "I've lived for so many days, I really have to leave in Xia." ”

"Also, once the painting is finished, you don't have to die. "Ropeway.

"I don't know how much I'm going to pay?"

Cableway: "841 gold coins, it seems-you've already paid for it." ”

Chi smiled: "Then I'll go." ”

Suo also smiled: "Get out of here!" said and pushed Chi hard.

Equator: "The next time we meet, I will ask the old gentleman to draw a picture for me." ”

Suo took out the bottle he was carrying: "It has to be difficult." ”

"It's the same as an oral painter. ”

Chi briefly described the appearance of Shui Huoli.

Solo Tang took a sip and thought for a while: "Interesting, except for the difference in age, skin color, and hairstyle, what you said is obviously the same as the person you described before, just one person!"

"What?" Chi was shocked: one person, the same person. Shuling and Shui Huoli ...... suddenly calmed down again, only to feel that the whole body was as comfortable as being caressed by the sun, and looked at the sky blankly:

Could it be that there is really ―――――――――――――――― reincarnation on this shijie?

The clear sky was filled with clouds, like the mischievous eyes of the heavens.

When Chi left, a group of children gathered around them to ask them to draw, and Solodo laughed.

......

Chi carefully passed through the security check and boarded the "pumice boat". He smiled so naturally that no one doubted that he would be a wanted man.

......

Lying on the railing, when he was bored, Chi took out the painting tube and carefully took out the painting named "Good Place" from the painting tube. At first glance, I couldn't help but be stunned:

Shuling in the painting is still the same, but there is an extra red on the bluestone behind her, looking at Shu's back from a distance, her eyes are full of infinite love......

"It must have been secretly painted by Suo the night before I leftβ€”this old man!"

It seems that calling an old man is better than calling an old gentleman!

――――――----5 Volumes (Final)

Postscript: Although the Western Divine Domain is wanted by Chi, it has always been the pseudonym of "Shaguang", (in fact, this is not surprising, Chi used to be a member of the Surprise Attack Department, and the background information is a first-level secret of the No. 3 Divine Domain.) You can't find it casually, otherwise you will be in trouble if you want it with your real name. But Chi Weishenme's wantedness has always been a mystery.
