Chapter 115 Painting Saint: Wu Daozi



Kong Xilai was the first to take the exam.

The difference is that this time there are fixed questions, and the drawing assessment can be conducted at the same time.

After all, calligraphy takes less time, but making a painting takes longer.

No need to wait!

Xiang Hesheng took out a few bamboo sticks and placed them on the table, and Kong Xilai drew lots to choose the type of painting this time.

Kong Xi came to draw lots and saw two words written on them - landscape.

"Landscape." Kong Xilai smiled.

"It seems that Mr. Kong is very lucky." Jiang Chaoge knew from Kong Xilai's expression that landscape painting should be his strong point.

"Thank you!"

Kong Xilai nodded.

Then, he raised his eyes and looked at the top of the mountain of books. Then he began to adjust his steps and position, as if he was trying to choose the best view.

When Luo Yu saw this, he said, "Does this Kong Xi come here to draw Shushan?"

"The top of Shushan is shrouded in clouds and mist, just like the white river across the sky. This scene as a painting... fits the theme of landscape." Jiang Chaoge replied.

"Painting according to the scene is cheating!" Luo Yu pouted.

"If someone wins the landscape lottery, it can only be said that they are lucky?" Jiang Chaoge smiled and asked: "Are you prepared in advance for this second level?"

"No, the theme is optional... I don't have that much time." Luo Yu shook her head: "After all, the master only has seven days to set the ceremony for the special move."

Jiang Chaoge nodded.

Being able to practice a few words in seven days... is already pretty good.

If you want to practice painting again, it is basically impossible.

While the two were talking, Kong Xilai had already chosen a spot and started painting.

Jiang Chenshui also walked up at this time.

"Jiang Chenshui, come here and choose a topic."

"Okay." Xiang Hesheng laid out a few bamboo sticks again.

Jiang Chenshui didn't look much and casually took one out.

There are two big characters written on it - Songzhu!

This means that you can paint green pines or green bamboos.

This made him breathe a small sigh of relief, because the Jixia Academy was built on a mountain, with Cangshan Mountain as a view everywhere, and, coincidentally, there was a tree on the way here.

"Taoist Master Jiang seems to have good luck. When I first came up, I saw a tall and handsome pine tree in the mountains, which can be used as a scenery." Jiang Chaoge said immediately.

Jiang Chenshui's lips moved, and he gritted his teeth and replied: "I draw bamboo!"

"It's good to draw bamboo!" Jiang Chaoge immediately said: "Bamboo painter: nobility, integrity, uprightness, tenacity. Isn't it the embodiment of integrity and nobility that Master Jiang came to participate in the assessment of Jixia Academy this time?"

Jiang Chenshui's body swayed, and he ignored Jiang Chaoge and ran away to draw bamboo.

Luo Yu looked at Jiang Chaoge and said, "Let's choose too."

"Yeah." Jiang Chaoge nodded.

The two of them went up together and selected bamboo sticks.

Luo Yu seemed to have good luck. Like Kong Xilai, he also chose landscape.

So, she shouted happily: "Hahaha, I am also a landscape artist. I can also paint according to the top of the mountain of books."

"Didn't you say this is cheating?" Jiang Chaoge looked at her with a smile.

"What cheating? This is called luck!"

"hehe."

Jiang Chaoge didn't say anything more and just pulled out a bamboo stick.

There are two words written on it - Lady.

"Lady?" Jiang Chaoge's face became a little strange.

Xiang Hesheng also noticed the bamboo sticks on Jiang Chao's singer, and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth: "I can see Jiang Jieyuan's calligraphy skills in the first level."

"So, this lady's bamboo stick... was placed in front of me on purpose?"

"Ahem!" Xiang Hesheng coughed twice: "You chose the question yourself, what does it have to do with me?"

"That's right. It's impossible for Mr. Xiang to do this deliberately because he wants to suppress my spirit. It's just that the student is overly concerned." Jiang Chaoge smiled.

"..." Xiang Hesheng.



In fact, Jiang Chaoge really doesn't care what he paints.

Anyway, he knows it all!

Generally speaking, when it comes to painting, Tang Bohu will definitely come to mind first.

Although Tang Bohu also painted pictures of ladies, in fact, the real heyday of pictures of ladies was in the Tang Dynasty.

Tang poetry and Song lyrics can be said to be the pinnacle of poetry.

The same was true for pictures of ladies at that time.

The most famous figure among them is the painting sage Wu Daozi.

Jiang Chaoge didn't see many pictures of ladies, but he had seen one, because that picture was placed in the LN Provincial Museum in the original world and was regarded as a treasure.

It's called "Eighty-seven Immortals Volume".

This is the only picture of a lady left by Wu Daozi in later generations.

Of course, Jiang Chaoge couldn't copy the entire picture... He only had to choose one.

"Since there were immortals in this world, I drew a picture of 'immortal', which can be regarded as suitable for the occasion."

As for the prototype of the face...

Several figures appeared in his mind at the same time: Po Meng, Ji Ruxue, Shangui, Cai Wenji, Liang Waner, Luo Yu...

In the end, he chose the Queen Mother!

The reason is very simple. Luo Yu mentioned to him that Xiang Hesheng once painted a painting for the Queen Mother on her thirtieth birthday, which is still displayed in the palace.

And Xiang Hesheng deliberately placed the "lady's" bamboo stick in front of him, no doubt to "suppress" his energy in the first level.

To show the majesty of Jixia Academy.

In this case, Jiang Chaoge was also prepared to comply with Xiang Hesheng's wish.

So, he looked at Xiang Hesheng again: "I heard that Mr. Xiang once painted for the Queen Mother in the palace?"

"That's right." Xiang Hesheng nodded.

Jiang Chaoge said no more, turned aside and started painting.

Xiang Hesheng frowned, not quite understanding what Jiang Chaoge wanted to say.

At this moment, Gargamel and others also climbed up.

"Hey, it's going to take a lot out of my hands and feet!"

It can be seen that Gargamel also chose to use force to break it. There was some muddy water on his clothes and a few pieces were damaged, making him look somewhat embarrassed.

Meng Xiao is a military strategist in the four realms, so he is no exception.

As for Han Huo and Song Yuanping, these two were Legalists, but surprisingly, they didn't have much damage on their bodies. It seemed like... they had managed to survive with their calligraphy.

The remaining few are all Confucian disciples, so the problem is not big, only two people are missing.



I saw that the second assessment was drawing.

Meng Xiao consciously chose to use force to break it.

Han Huo and Song Yuanping looked at each other and both walked towards the left path.

It seems that the two of them are... very average in painting.

The others started to make choices.

Gargamel also stayed, but instead of drawing bamboo sticks, he looked left and right, as if his mind was not on the assessment.

time flies.

About two quarters of an hour later...

Gargamel suddenly screamed strangely: "Eh? Brother Jiang, are you painting... the Queen Mother?!"

With this shout, almost everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Chaoge, including Xiang Hesheng, who was sitting behind the table with a calm expression.

"Painting the Queen Mother?"

Xiang Hesheng looked at the 'lady' described by Jiang Chaoge.

That woman was obviously not a mortal woman. The immortal energy and fluttering ribbons all represented that this woman was a fairy who had ascended to the fairy world.

However, the woman's facial features were undoubtedly that of the Queen Mother.

Her long willow eyebrows, bright phoenix eyes, and her awe-inspiring temperament.

"It's really the Queen Mother!"

Xiang Hesheng was shocked in his heart, but he was not only shocked by the people painted by Jiang Chaoge, he was actually more shocked by the "divine color" in the painting.

Painting is not about appearance, but about brilliance!

Xiang Hesheng's painting skills were outstanding, especially in the paintings of ladies, surpassing his master, and he is known as the number one painter of ladies in the Qin Dynasty today.

Therefore, he naturally knows how to draw.

Precisely because he understands painting, the level of shock in his heart is far beyond that of others.

Looking at the "ladies" in Jiang Chaoge's paintings, he had an inexplicable imagination. He seemed to see a fairy who fell into the mortal world, floating on the painting paper.

So beautiful.

Not only is the person beautiful, the thin lines outlined one by one... are even more beautiful!

It's like being alive.

This is not a painting at all, this is obviously a fairy from the sky!



As a descendant of Confucius Sheng, Kong Xilai naturally also knew how to paint.

He still remembered what Jiang Chaoge said before.

"A person's energy is limited. Since I am proficient in calligraphy, it is naturally impossible for me to be proficient in painting. But Mr. Kong's family background means he should be good at painting, right?"

"boom!"

His hand trembled.

A drop of ink fell on the scroll.

"Does this mean he doesn't understand painting? He actually said he doesn't understand painting?!"

Kong Xilai was stunned. Then, he remembered what he said in reply to Jiang Chaoge. For a moment, he had the urge to drill into the ground.

And just then...

Jiang Chaoge turned around and smiled at everyone.

He behaved very humbly and politely.

There was no reply, just a faint smile, and then started to continue painting.

But Kong Xilai's heart felt like he was struck by lightning.

Then, he looked at the landscape painting in front of him and the drop of ink on the painting... His heart was not only struck by lightning.

"Fuck me!"

Kong Xilai couldn't hold it back and cursed.



Another two quarters of an hour passed.

Anyone who paints has already painted.

Luo Yu was the first to submit the scroll. She painted the top of the mountain of books. Her brushwork was delicate and her ink was relatively light, giving the scroll a sense of after the rain.

"Not bad, the grade is B!" Xiang Hesheng nodded: "Sorry, I failed."

"What failed? How could I fail!" Luo Yu refused.

"We can only stop here."

"..."

Luo Yu was very unhappy and walked to Gargamel on the side: "Gargamel, look, why did I fail? My drawing is obviously very good."

"Of course, Her Royal Highness's painting must be excellent. However, Her Royal Highness's choice of theme is not good and her luck is a bit worse. But you can still choose to break through." Gargamel reminded.

"Powerful?" Luo Yu thought thoughtfully.

The next person to hand in the paper was Jiang Chenshui.

Jiang Chenshui paints bamboo.

He uses ink and wash brushwork to paint, and each bamboo is vigorous and powerful. He indeed has extremely high attainments in painting skills.

Princess commented: "I didn't expect that the Taoist priest who drew the talismans could really draw?"

Jiang Chenshui ignored it.

Next time, Kong Xi comes.

He also painted landscapes.

However, compared to Luo Yu, this descendant of Kong Sheng is indeed good at painting, even if there is a little more ink on it.

However, he still stippled the ink into a rock.

"Jiang Chenshui, A."

"Come Kong Xi, I'm under Armor."

Both of them passed the second assessment.

Finally, naturally it was Jiang Chaoge's turn.

He walked to the table and handed the painted 'Picture of the Queen Mother' directly to Xiang Hesheng.

Xiang Hesheng had been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw the painting on the table, his eyes lit up. He immediately moved closer to the scroll in front of him and started reading.

After watching for a full quarter of an hour.

He shouted with satisfaction.

"Okay! Good! Good!!!"

The more he looked at the painting carefully and the closer he looked, the more frightened he became.

Every stroke and every painting is elegant and natural, without any superfluity, and they are all just right to outline the elegance of "fairy".

He has never seen such a beautiful "Picture of a Lady".

His teacher couldn't draw it, and he also... couldn't draw it!

Instinctively, a series of "good" sounds came out of his mouth. He wanted to suppress Jiang Chaoge's momentum and show off the erudition of Yifanjixia Academy.

However, he knew that he couldn't suppress it at all.

"Jiang Jieyuan, I thought your calligraphy skills were already very high, but I didn't expect...your painting skills are even higher than your calligraphy skills!" Xiang Hesheng took a deep breath.

"That's a ridiculous compliment, Mr. Xiang." Jiang Chaoge was polite.

"It's a pity that I can't give this painting a real rating. I can only give it the highest grade of A (ten)." Xiang Hesheng looked a little regretful.

"It doesn't matter, that's enough." Jiang Chaoge nodded.

"Please Jiang Jieyuan, keep going up!"

"good!"

Jiang Chaoge smiled and walked upward again.

Luo Yu spoke at this moment: "Jiang Yu'er... you wait for me up there, and I'll break it!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the top of the mountain." Jiang Chaoge replied.

Kong Xilai and Jiang Chenshui both looked at Jiang Chaoge. Because they had submitted their paintings in advance, they were still in front of Jiang Chaoge.

However, they also understand...

Just walk in front, that’s all!

Gargamel remembered something at this moment and said to Xiang Hesheng: "Mr. Xiang, are you going to present this painting to the Queen Mother for a look?"

Xiang Hesheng glanced at Gargamel and nodded: "Of course it should be presented to the Queen Mother for a look."

"That's very good." Gargamel said no more.



Jiang Chaoge continued to climb up.

At this time, he had passed two assessments in a row.

Calligraphy, painting.

In front of him, apart from Bai Mei who chose to break through earlier, the only ones left were Jiang Chenshui from the National Scholars List and Kong Xilai, a descendant of Kong Sheng.

"With two assessments, there are only three people left in front of them. It seems that it is indeed extremely difficult to climb to the top of the mountain of books." Jiang Chaoge sighed.

"It may be extremely difficult for others, but for Mr. Jiang, it shouldn't be difficult, right?" Kong Xilai replied to Jiang Chaoge with a depressed look on his face.

"Nothing compared to Mr. Kong."

"..." Kong Xilai.

This sentence cannot be compared, it is simply more harmful than ridicule.

Kong Xilai wanted to say something more, but he couldn't say anything. Who told him to say that his painting skills were outstanding?

(When writing this kind of painting, you need to look up information, and the coding speed is much slower. I will update it first to ensure perfect attendance. I will update 4,000 words. There will be two updates tomorrow, and I will make up for the minimum of 10,000 words!)
