Tiandao Library

"It should be that you wanted to get rid of the spirituality on the scroll, but in the end... you got a backlash!"

Zhang Xuan looked sympathetic.

This kind of situation has been seen in Hall Master Xing, he ignites the spirituality in the other party's primordial spirit, and the result... it becomes like this, with horns on his head and a tail behind him...

Now this guy is in the same situation. Obviously, when he was dealing with the spirituality of the picture scroll, he suffered a backlash.

"so what should I do now?"

His face turned pale, and Zhang Jiuxiao swayed.

He is the number one genius in the Qingyuan Empire, the idol worshiped by countless girls, if he goes out with this thing, won't he be laughed to death?

"It's very simple, just kill the spirituality planted in your body!"

Zhang Xuan said.

This kind of thing has been dealt with once, and I was surprised at first, but now it is nothing, it is very ordinary.

"Erase? How to obliterate..." Zhang Jiuxiao hurriedly looked over.

Back then Hall Master Xing had such a powerful primordial spirit that he couldn't kill the spirituality by himself, so in the end it was Zhang Xuan who did it himself.

"Open your soul, let me explore, help you find spirituality, and kill it will solve it!" Zhang Xuan said.

"Open your soul? It's impossible..."

Zhang Jiuxiao shook his head quickly.

As a child of the Zhang family, there are many secrets in his soul, how could he open it up to outsiders casually?

What is the difference between opening your soul and standing naked in front of each other?

Definitely not going to do it!

"No? How about this? Let me see what the spirituality in this painting is, and then try to find a way to prescribe the right medicine. Maybe I can prepare a medicine that can obliterate the spirituality..."

After a pause, Zhang Xuan said.

It doesn't matter if you don't open up your spirituality, as long as you know what the spirituality is entering the other person's body, you can prepare the corresponding poison, and poison him to death.

At the beginning, he also introduced this method to Hall Master Xing, but unfortunately the other party did not agree.

"Okay, take a look..."

Hearing that there is no need to open up the soul, Zhang Jiuxiao hurriedly said.

"Ok!"

Nodding his head, Zhang Xuan ignored the other party, his eyes fell on the scroll, but his spirit quietly entered the sea of ​​consciousness, falling on the books that had just appeared in the library.

After watching for a while, he frowned.

"But what do you see?"

Seeing his expression, Master Wu spoke.

Without answering his words, Zhang Xuan turned his head to look at the bronze mask not far away: "Where did you get this picture?"

"I just invite you to help me unlock the seal. It's not necessary. Tell me where the picture comes from?" The bronze mask showed displeasure.

"It's really unnecessary to say where the picture came from!"

With his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows: "The swamp in Jibei is extremely humid. Although this picture is just a calligraphy and painting, it has been immersed in this place for more than 2000 years, and it is still full of moisture. When you get close, you can feel it, and the color will change when the flame burns..."

"you……"

The bronze mask froze for a moment, and there seemed to be horror on his face.

Just by looking at the moisture on the scroll, can you tell it's from the Jibei swamp?

The one in front of him must have better eyesight.

"The swamp in Jibei is full of dangers, but there are also many opportunities. It is not a big deal to find the works left by the old man Wusai back then. It's just...the old man Wusai left calligraphy and paintings. After 30 years, he deliberately kept the secrets in the mountains. Hiding...it means that you don't want future generations to know, this secret, I'm afraid it's involved a lot, right?"

Zhang Xuan continued.

With a twitch in the corner of his eyes, the bronze mask narrowed his eyes: "If you can't unlock the seal, I'll just take the scroll away, so don't be suspicious here..."

"Who said the seal cannot be broken?"

Zhang Xuan said: "Since I don't want to say more about the origin of this painting, I'm too lazy to analyze it. The material of this painting is made of herring skin mixed with white-horned deer skin, and the ink uses sky blue stone, which is fused with the source of gold Therefore, although water has experienced more than 2000 years, not only has it not decayed in the slightest, but it has become more dazzling and gives people a deeper feeling!"

"Looking at the color and change of the ink, it should have been taken out by you from the place where it was buried for about three years, and the time to complete the painting is 140 years. According to the time calculation, it should be painted by the old man Wusai when he was 270 years old. The cloud that was added at the end was left by him when he was [-] years old, that is to say... After finishing these, he disappeared, whether he was killed or taken away, no one knows!"

"This……"

Everyone was shocked.

The head pastor on one side even widened his eyes.

He had been observing carefully for a long time just now, but he didn't see the specific age of the painting. The one in front of him knew such details with just a glance. His ability to appraise treasures is too terrifying!

Zhang Jiuxiao, whose head was full of durians, also shook his body, his eyes were dizzy, and he was about to cry.

Didn't this guy say he was a five-star appraiser?

He didn't even take a look at other people's five-star treasure... But this one, why does it feel better than him, a seven-star treasure appraiser?

"The three-hundred-year-old Wusai old man has already reached the state of leaving the body. The clouds he left behind, combined with the illusionary state of calligraphy and painting, make people confused and difficult to decipher..."

The first thousand and 160 seven chapters have not yet come to study ink

"Seeing the material and painting time, it is of no use to crack the seal, right?"

The bronze mask frowned, interrupting Zhang Xuan.

"It has no direct effect, but based on this, we can infer the cause of the painting, analyze why the other party left the seal, and the shortcomings and loopholes of the seal."

Zhang Xuan smiled lightly.

"Based on the age of the painting alone, we can infer the lack and loopholes of the seal... This is a bit arrogant!" The tail curled up, and Zhang Jiuxiao on one side raised his head. Because he spoke too hard, the durian on his head trembled wildly , seems to fall at any moment.

Although everyone didn't speak, they agreed with his point of view. The age of the painting, if you look at it carefully, and the exact year, at most it can show that you have a strong ability to appreciate treasures, but what does it have to do with the seal?

"Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean I can't see it!"

With a chuckle, Zhang Xuan's body was straight and his face was full of confidence. He walked around the painting and calligraphy, and suddenly looked at the president of the Calligrapher and Painter Guild not far away: "This must be the president of the Calligrapher and Painter Guild." !"

"Under Mengchong, I am the president of the Painting and Calligraphy Artists Guild!"

Chairman Meng Chong stood up and clasped his fists.

"President Meng, I would like to trouble you to tell everyone, two thousand and 140 years ago, what kind of painting style was handed down by our Qingyuan Empire Calligrapher's Association? What kind of brush and ink are you good at?"

Zhang Xuan said.

"This……"

Dazed for a moment, President Mengchong thought for a moment, and said: "Over 100 and [-] years ago in the Qingyuan Empire, the [fixed-plate painting method] was popular! That is to say, it is the same as printing and publishing. , a specific size, fixed layer by layer. This kind of painting method usually first puts a layer of ink on the paper, and then paints layer by layer. Each layer strives to be perfect without any mistakes... This way, although it seems cumbersome, it can make the painting neat and free of mistakes!"

Calligraphy and painting, like cultivation, will be updated with the passage of time. Every era will have obvious traces, which are completely different from other eras.

Because of this, the appraiser can successfully identify the age of the treasure without deviation.

Solid-plate painting flourished between 500 and [-] years ago and spread widely, among which the most influential one is the old man without sorrow.

Therefore, as soon as everyone sees the work, they will know that this person left it.

"That's right, it's a fixed plate painting method!"

Hearing the other party's explanation was very detailed, Zhang Xuan nodded: "This method of painting can make the work extremely neat, just like printing, but it also has a big flaw...that is, all inks must be used in the same amount, and the entire painting Flatness is like cutting with a knife, otherwise...you will be ridiculed by others, deviant, and the level is too poor..."

Zhang Xuan smiled: "Look at this painting, regardless of the landscape, the surrounding sky, flowers and plants, they all use the same thickness..."

Everyone looked at it in unison, their consciousness agitated.

After a while, they all nodded.

indeed so.

If the other party didn't say it, I really didn't see it.

"So what if it's flat?" The bronze mask snorted, "I just need to crack the seal!"

"Don't worry, listen to me, if you want to break the seal, you must know this!"

Zhang Xuan continued: "As I said just now, this painting was finished in two years, with a gap of 30 years! In other words, 30 years ago, the painting was complete, and the picture must be flat... 30 Years later, in order to cover up something, this old man without sorrow deliberately added white clouds on top! Since the ink has been added, the thickness must be different, so if you look at the position of the white clouds now, can you see anything?"

Everyone looked in Baiyun's direction again, and in the blink of an eye, they all frowned.

"It seems to be equally flat..."

"No change?"

sounded.

The picture at Baiyun is as smooth as other places, and there is no problem at all.

"Looks like, needless to say, everyone can see that it is flat! That means...he not only added ink on it, but also cut off a layer of the original pattern!" Zhang Xuan nodded.

"This..." Everyone's eyes widened, and they couldn't believe it.

"Cutting off the original painting, and then repainting a different one, this... how could it be done?" Meng Chong, the president of the Painting and Calligraphy Association, couldn't help but asked.

As a seven-star peak calligrapher, I know the difficulty.

No matter what kind of material the scroll is made of, once the ink is stained, it will seep into it, scrape off a layer, and repaint a different pattern... Can it really be done?

"It's very difficult, but... what if you use [Void Book]?" Zhang Xuan said.

"Use the Void Book? Then... it will fall!"

Chairman Meng Chong continued.

Void facing the book is equivalent to painting in the air. It cannot be merged with the painting itself. As long as it is moved, the two will definitely be separated... How can it be the same as now, the fusion is perfect?

"This is the same as what Zhang Jiuxiao and Master Zhang said. A special spirituality is added in the middle. If you compare Baiyun and the previous painting to two sheets of paper... this spirituality is the glue that allows them to blend perfectly without interfering with each other! "Zhang Xuan nodded.

"I see……"

Everyone suddenly realized.

Before Zhang Jiuxiao said that there is spirituality in the seal, everyone was a little puzzled. After listening to the explanation, they realized that this was the case.

"After all, isn't it the same result as mine?" Zhang Jiuxiao pouted.

I thought this guy could come up with some amazing theory, but the result went around, and the conclusion was the same as he got.

"It's not the same!" Zhang Xuan shook his head: "You know that there is spirituality mixed between the two paintings, but do you know why this happens, and how to get rid of it?"

"I……"

His face turned red, and Zhang Jiuxiao was speechless.

The reason why he knew this was because in his family, he had personally seen someone crack similar works... As for why he did this and how to crack it, he didn't know.

To be honest, if you really want to know, you won’t have durians on your head and thick and long tails.

"Spirituality fuses two paintings and plays a fixed role. According to the normal situation, it is difficult to separate them by any means. If you do it forcibly, the two paintings will be scrapped... It's like planning to glue them together for thousands of years. The two pieces of paper are the same, even if it succeeds, are you sure that the painting below can still be recognized?"

Ignore this self-righteous son, Zhang Xuan said.

"This……"

With a twitch of his face, the bronze mask no longer had the arrogant attitude just now, but fell silent.

His purpose is to see what is sealed underneath. If they are forcibly separated, the ones below will not be seen, and the ones above will be destroyed... It is definitely not worth the candle.

"I don't know Master Zhang, but is there a way to ensure that there will be no problems below?"

After hesitating for a moment, I looked over.

The person in front of me can speak in such detail and explain it well, maybe... he can accomplish what others find it difficult to do.

"I can say so much, so I am sure!"

With a slight smile, Zhang Xuan nodded.

"Oh? Please enlighten me..."

His eyes lit up, and the bronze mask quickly clasped his fists.

"It's easy!"
