Chapter 224 Shocking
()
Le Baiyi said indifferently: "It's all about pretending to be presentable! Even if he has some status background, he is probably average in painting. It's just that he is young and vigorous, and wants to show his face deliberately for the sake of being jealous. When he loses, he will know how to be ashamed Here's the situation."
Professor Hu smiled and said, "You really don't like him at all?"
Le Baiyi sneered and said, "Be optimistic about him? What qualifications does he have for me to be optimistic about? If he can really win against Zhu Xiang, I will agree to sell him the Winter Fluorite and the Broken Star Stone! No... not at all. he."
Professor Hu smiled wryly, "Lao Le, don't get carried away."
Le Baiyi sneered and said, "Old Hu, you know my character. I've always been a spittle and a nail. If he really wins Zhu Xiang, I'll go back to Shanghai immediately and take the two kinds of ores and give them to him."
Bai Yu and the ten judges, who were proficient in calligraphy and painting, also shook their heads when they saw Tang Xiu's quick drawing, thinking that Tang Xiu was playing tricks, but in fact he had no real talent.
In their hearts, the balance of victory has tilted towards Zhu Xiang. Among them were Bai Yu who hated Zhu Xiang very much, and several other masters of painting.
Fifteen minutes later.
Tang Xiu put away the brush, lightly blew twice on the drawn landscape painting, then took out a piece of white paper and spread it on top of the scroll.
"I'm ready!"
Tang Xiu looked around, his eyes finally fell on Bai Yu's face.
Bai Yu nodded and said, "It's not time yet, wait for Zhu Xiang."
"good!"
After Tang Xiu agreed, he stood in front of the table and waited quietly.
After nearly thirty minutes, Zhu Xiang finally drew the landscape painting he wanted to paint. Raising his hand to wipe off the sweat on his forehead, his handsome face showed a satisfied smile, and he said loudly: "I have also finished the painting, and this painting can definitely be called the one I am most satisfied with."
Bai Yu nodded and asked, "You two, which one of you will show everyone the calligraphy and painting first?"
Zhu Xiang said arrogantly: "Let's show everyone my calligraphy and painting first! After reading it later, I will make you feel that looking at calligraphy and painting is the same as eating. It is absolutely boring to eat good ones and poor ones." .”
Bai Yu asked, "Mr. Tang, what's your opinion?"
"casual!"
Tang Xiu said calmly.
Bai Yu nodded, and led the ten judges to the middle position, gathered around Zhu Xiang's painting table, and began to look at the painting that Zhu Xiang had just painted.
"Good skills, clear lines, clear textures. Green mountains and green waters, waterfalls, and birds standing on the branches. The most satisfying thing is the beautiful lotus blooming in the pool at the foot of the mountain. Look at it Painting can make people imagine the beauty in this landscape painting."
"Not bad! Look at the color matching, it is delicate and warm, and the tone is particularly bright. The bird on the branch, with its mouth open, seems to be singing a folk song. I have seen many paintings, and it is not better than this one. Many. If I were to give a score, I would give at least eighty points."
"Elegant, this painting actually gives me an elegant feeling, it's really good. I give it 81 points."
"Eighty points!"
"..."
Following the evaluation of the judges, Bai Yu's eyes showed a complex expression. Although Zhu Xiang's character and personality are very poor, his painting skills are indeed strong. There are many calligraphy and paintings in her lotus building, but there are definitely no more than ten paintings that are better than this one.
this moment!
She couldn't help secretly worrying about Tang Xiu.
Bai Yu secretly sighed in her heart, looked at Zhu Xiang and said, "Take your painting and let everyone have a look! After everyone finishes reading it, and Tang Xiu, I will decide the winner for you."
"good!"
Zhu Xiang picked up his painting and walked slowly in front of the crowd. It took him several minutes before he returned to the table, put the landscape painting he drew on the table, looked at Tang Xiu and said with a sneer: "Ugly!" A daughter-in-law has to see her in-laws. My painting is finished showing everyone, now it's up to you. Of course, if you really think that you have no chance of winning, I would also like to save some face for you. You can just admit defeat now, don't let us Looking at your painting."
Tang Xiu shook his head and smiled, "I really don't know where your confidence comes from. Zhu Xiang, right? Don't you understand a truth?"
Zhu Xiang raised his eyebrows and sneered, "What's the point?"
Tang Xiu said: "Stand tall and fall hard. You are shouting and jubilant now, but if you lose later, the degree of embarrassment will be even higher!"
Zhu Xiang said contemptuously: "It's up to you? Want to win me too? Go ahead and make your big dream! Stop talking nonsense, take out your calligraphy and painting, and let everyone have a look!"
Tang Xiu took a step back and made a "please" gesture to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu came to the table in front of Tang Xiu, and gently took away the white paper covering the landscape painting. When her eyes fell on the calligraphy and painting, her eyes froze and her wrists trembled. Immediately, her pupils shrank suddenly, and an unbelievable light burst out from her eyes.
"This painting..."
now!
No one could understand Bai Yu's shock. Her eyes were fixed on the landscape painting on the table, and her heart beat a few beats faster than usual.
When the ten judges saw Bai Yu's appearance, they all showed puzzled expressions. When they came to the front and back of the table, when they saw the calligraphy and painting on the table clearly, they immediately showed the same expression as Bai Yu.
Dead silence!
The whole scene was extremely quiet. Even if a needle were dropped on the ground at this moment, everyone might be able to hear the sound. However, the ten judges and Bai Yu were all trembling at this moment, and their eyes were full of unbelievable light.
"what happened?"
Finally, among the crowd waiting outside, a middle-aged man asked loudly.
Moment!
The body tremors of the ten judges and Bai Yu increased sharply, but they also woke up from their sluggishness. Eleven people turned their heads in a tacit understanding and looked angrily at the man who spoke.
The middle-aged man looked puzzled, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head. He didn't understand how he offended the ten judges and Bai Yu, why did they all look at him with angry expressions?
Bai Yu took a deep breath, looked at Tang Xiu with complicated eyes and said, "I never thought, I never dreamed that I could see such a landscape painting in my life! I want to say, this is not shock, but shock. Tang Xiu, I was intimidated by you."
One of the ten judges also said with a bitter expression: "I was also shocked! I really can't believe that someone in this world can draw such a landscape painting."
Zhu Xiang was a little baffled by Bai Yu and the ten judges. He didn't even hear whether Tang Xiu's paintings were good or not. After hesitating for a moment, he said loudly: "Manager Bai, there are ten other judges, isn't the picture drawn by that kid really horrible? If so, you should tell everyone loudly so that he can embarrass himself!"
"Shut up!"
A judge shouted angrily.
"Well……"
Zhu Xiang's expression froze, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart.
Bai Yu took a deep look at Tang Xiu and asked, "Mr. Tang, can I show you this painting of yours?"
Tang Xiu nodded and said, "Thank you!"
Bai Yu nodded, carefully picked up the landscape painting drawn by Tang Xiu, and walked slowly step by step. She walked very slowly, almost every two steps, she would stop for half a minute. It took her seven or eight minutes to complete a circle.
everyone!
After seeing the landscape painting Tang Xiu painted, they all became extremely silent, and even looked at Zhu Xiang with indescribably complicated eyes.
include!
Professor Hu, Le Baiyi, and Mu Wanying, the most beautiful woman in the imperial capital.
In the end, Bai Yu carefully placed the landscape painting on the table in front of Tang Xiu. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Mr. Tang, would you like to sell this calligraphy and painting? You can set the price, as long as I can afford it. Never pay back."
Tang Xiu shook his head lightly, looked at Mu Wanying and said, "Since she chooses to believe in me and is willing to use her authentic painting of Wang Xizhi to make me bet with others, I will make up my mind. After the competition is over, I will give this calligraphy and painting to She. Actually, for me, it is very easy to draw such a thing. If I want, I can draw even hundreds or thousands of pictures. However, I am lazy and slow, so, My calligraphy and paintings will be very rare. There are few now, and there will be few in the future."
Mu Wanying asked dumbfounded: "You... you want to give this calligraphy and painting to me? No, no, this... this is too precious!"
Tang Xiu said indifferently: "Dancing with writing and ink, showing off elegance. That's my evaluation of those literati Ya Ge, so painting can only be used as a flavoring agent for life, and don't let it become the main track of life. You can like it, don't be obsessed, otherwise The rest of my life will be very boring. Accept it! There is no reason to take back what I, Tang Xiu, have given away."
A gleam flashed in Mu Wanying's eyes. Tang Xiu's words made her palpitate inexplicably. After a moment of silence, she nodded slowly and said, "Thank you!"
Zhu Xiang stood aside, he has not been able to see what kind of landscape painting Tang Xiu painted. But at this moment, the bad feeling in his heart was getting stronger and stronger. Taking a deep breath, seeing that Tang Xiu and Mu Wanying were only focused on talking and didn't pay any attention to him, he suddenly said angrily, "It's not certain who wins. Is there any need to play tricks like this? I want to Look, what kind of rubbish are you drawing!"
finished!
He sprinted to the table in front of Tang Xiu, and his eyes fell on the landscape painting Tang Xiu had drawn.
"This is……"
The moment Zhu Xiang saw the painting, a chill rushed into his heart. This chill did not come from the outside, but from the depths of his soul.
good drawing!
Peerless painting!
Even though he has read thousands of paintings, he has never seen anything better than this one.
The towering peaks, like giant dragons, are endless and criss-crossing. There are majestic palaces on the top of the mountains. The palace with carved beams and painted buildings was shrouded in light clouds and mist. Under the blue sky and white clouds, cranes danced lightly and white birds jumped for joy.
In a turbulent river, there is a flat boat floating. A handsome young man sits alone on the bow of the boat, holding a book in his hand and watching quietly, going down the river. (To be continued.) ~~7k~~
