Li Muyang was in a dilemma!
He originally thought he was ready, but after Lin Canghai saw his painting, he said he was not ready — — Because of his doubts about his technique and his trust in Lin Canghai's professionalism, he did not know whether he was ready or not.
He knew that he was only halfway through becoming a monk, oh, he had not even had the time to shave his hair, and had not even begun to learn painting. And Lin Canghai was obviously from a wealthy family, and also seemed to be well-versed in the art of painting. From his professional point of view, his work should be unsightly, right?
Otherwise, why would he look like he had seen a ghost at one glance, and then use his body to block in front of him to prevent others from judging and appreciating it?
Speaking of this, Li Muyang had to criticize Lin Canghai's acting.
At this time, shouldn't he gracefully and calmly walk over to stop it, then with a smile on his face say 'Li Muyang still has one last stroke to finish, the finishing touch', and then conveniently help me modify it — — -
You look like you just had a nightmare, even an idiot would know what happened, okay? Do you want to help cover up or tell others' this guy's painting is terrible '?
However, he clearly painted according to the drawing method of the white figure in his mind.
Could it be that the old dragon's painting skills are only third-rate, and not even worth mentioning compared to the human race who is good at painting — — Li Muyang began to regret accepting Chu Ning's challenge.
He had placed all his hopes on the old dragon. In his view, the old dragon had lived for so many years, and usually liked to write and paint, as long as he made a copy of his proud work and threw it out, he could slap his face and make everyone who saw it gasp in amazement and praise him as a peerless genius.
The situation was not good!
Li Muyang's answer made Gu Huangwu very dissatisfied, scowling at him and saying angrily: "Are you ready or not? What do you mean by 'should be ready'? "
Li Muyang looked at Lin Canghai, who shook his head desperately.
Li Muyang's heart sank again. "How about I change it again?"
Chu Ning couldn't see Li Muyang's painting, but Lin Canghai's performance had already let her know the answer.
She walked over to Gu Huangwu and said: "Teacher Gu, time is up — —"
"Exactly. If you say that you're not ready, who would have the patience to wait? "The onlookers were starting to get dissatisfied.
"If you bet, you must accept defeat, don't hide your shame — —"
Gu Huangwu also nodded, looking at Li Muyang. "Since the painting is done, let's leave it to everyone to comment. No matter who won or lost, it was already a foregone conclusion. It cannot be changed at will. "
Li Muyang had no choice but to pull Lin Canghai away and repeatedly bowed to the crowd, saying: "It's my first time painting, it's inevitable that my technique is rusty. Please excuse me, Teacher Gu and all the students. "
Gu Huangwu gestured for Li Muyang to move aside. "Good is good, bad is bad. What is there to take responsibility for? "
With a wry smile, Li Muyang had to move aside and made an inviting gesture. "Please."
Numerous students crowded around, their eyes fixed on Li Muyang's painting.
Astonishment, silence, and then a roar of laughter.
"Li Muyang, what are you painting? Heavens, it's so funny — — "
"Childish, really childish, people who don't know would think it's drawn by a naughty child — —"
"The best painting is the dog, it really looks like a dog — — Hahaha — —"
----
Contrary to Chu Ning's treatment, everyone who saw the painting wantonly attacked and laughed incessantly. It was like they had seen the most absurd painting in the world.
No wonder they laughed, because Li Muyang's painting really looked — — full of rustic flavor.
Next to the quiet stream, some thick tree roots were outlined in rough lines. The roots of the tree roots extended into the river, as if they were one with the stream.
The stream water was clear, one, two, three, countless flower petals scattered across the surface of the river, like falling petals in profusion, extremely beautiful.
A big dog was lying under a branch, sticking out its tongue in the distance. It looked like it was taking a nap after eating and thinking about the past. A black butterfly stopped on the tip of the big dog's nose, tired of flying and making a short stop.
In the stream, there were shadows of the big dog and the butterfly, as well as the reflection of the peach trees on top of Big Head's head.
In the entire painting, there was not a complete peach tree, only the thick and strong roots of the peach trees.
Not a tree full of peach blossoms could be seen, only pieces of fallen red floating on the stream.
There were no figures to decorate the painting, only a big dog in a daze and a butterfly that had just landed on top of the dog.
The whole painting looked simple and crude, without any atmosphere, artistic conception or layout. It looked as if a beginner had forcefully pieced together a few disjointed images, and then created an extremely strange painting.
Compared to Chu Ning's painting, it was obvious which one was better. Everyone had an answer in their hearts.
Chu Ning was very proud, but her expression did not change. She walked to Li Muyang's side, poked his arm, and said, "Li Muyang, what are you painting? Does it have a name? "
"This painting is called Shower of Spring Sunshine." Li Muyang blushed, and said awkwardly.
This was not the name he gave it, but the name given by the old dragon. When he was painting this painting, in his mind, there would be a man in white splashing ink and painting. In an instant, the painting appeared at the tip of the brush.
The man in white used semi-cursive script to write four big words on the top of the painting, Shower of Spring Sunshine.
Then he signed it and stamped it. Then he admired it for a long time with a face full of smiles, and finally put it in the treasury.
When Li Muyang thought about it in his mind, he could still feel the old dragon's proud expression and conceit.
"My painting is the best in the world, other people's paintings are all rubbish." He really thought so.
Could it be that all of this was just the old dragon entertaining himself?
Li Muyang was heartbroken, he felt that he was deceived by the old dragon.
"Shower of Spring Sunshine? The name is good, but this painting — — "Chu Ning looked at Li Muyang with a face full of ridicule." Extremely clumsy. "
"It seems that Chu Ning won this round." A faint smile emerged on Song Tinyun's face, looking at Li Muyang. "I remember the loser has to give the winner a prize?"
Lin Canghai patted Li Muyang on the shoulder to comfort him. Since things had come to this, he could not help.
Qiandu, however, revealed a thoughtful expression, took a few steps closer, and more carefully admired Li Muyang's' Shower of Spring Sunshine '.
Gu Huangwu also had the same reaction as her. Until now, he had not made any comments on Li Muyang's work.
But it was not as if he was annoyed or had given up, but his eyes were bewildered and his face wore a thoughtful expression as he studied the work.
It was as if he saw something he could not understand, but thought it was a good thing.
The words that attacked Li Muyang all stopped, and the scene fell into a deathly silence.
Because everyone knew that, with Gu Huangwu's personality, he would scold in public if he found something unpleasant to the eye, and he would also point out the flaws in the work. Even if it was the West Wind Princess Chu Ning, he would mercilessly say that the boy's eyes were not vivid and flexible enough, and not realistic enough — — If Li Muyang thought the painting was not good, he would have no reason to save face for him.
But, what was the meaning of this expression?
Could it be that Li Muyang's painting is difficult to understand?
"Teacher Gu, why don't you give a few comments?" Chu Ning cast a somewhat guilty glance at Li Muyang, softly reminding Gu Huangwu who was looking at the painting.
Gu Huangwu lifted the wine gourd in his hand, wanting to drink, only to find that the wine gourd was empty, the wine inside had all been drunk by him.
"Bring some wine." Gu Huangwu shouted.
A servant ran out and soon came back with a gourd of strong wine.
Gu Huangwu took the wine gourd and gulped down a mouthful, then pointed to Li Muyang's' Shower of Spring Sunshine 'and asked: "You painted this?"
"Yes." Li Muyang nodded, a glimmer of hope rising in his heart. Could it be that this painting is not as bad as they said?
"You said this is your first time painting?" Gu Huangwu asked again.
"Yes — —" Li Muyang answered again. "I've seen some before, but I've never painted it myself. So — — there may be some flaws. "
"Not just some flaws, there are a lot of flaws." Gu Huangwu thundered.
"— —" Li Muyang's heart began to sink. Sure enough, this drunkard was bribed by the Royal Family of West Wind, and now began to attack his work.
"The brush is crude, the ink is uneven, the lines are crooked and twisted, simply unsightly, saying it's a beginner's wanton smear — —" Gu Huangwu said aloud as he gulped down a mouthful of wine.
Chu Ning's face lit up with joy, as though a stone had been lifted from her heart.
Li Muyang repeatedly bowed, saying: "Yes, yes, Teacher Gu is right — —"
"Reprimand? What right do I have to reprimand you? "Gu Huangwu said angrily.
"Teacher Gu — —" Li Muyang's heart sank. Even if his painting is extremely bad, you don't have to keep people thousands of miles away? I just want to learn a few strokes from you, there's no reason for you to say such — — ironic words to ridicule me, right?
"I've been learning painting for ten years, but I'm not as good as a beginner, I'm so angry, so angry — — Don't tell me there are really geniuses in this world? Am I not a genius in this world? "The more Gu Huangwu spoke, the angrier he became. He once again lifted the wine gourd and gulped it down. "'Shower of Spring Sunshine', a pool of spring sunshine — —"
“----”
The crowd was dumbfounded.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at Gu Huangwu who was crazily gulping down wine, finding it hard to believe every word that came out of his mouth.
