Doutu Continent

[No, no, this really hurts the body.jpg]

The enrollment task was scheduled to start in the early morning of the next day, which sounded urgent, but in fact the itinerary had already been set, but Gu Qingzhou stepped in temporarily.

Gu Qingzhou left this trip, and he didn't know when he would come back. He once again asked Master Mo Xuetao to take care of the flowers and plants in his room.

Mo Xuetao waved his fan in disgust, reluctantly nodded in agreement.In fact, for the convenience of taking care of it during this time, he has already moved those plants into his yard.

Before leaving, Mo Xuetao gave Gu Qingzhou all the rubbings of his paintings, which were not available in the market, including the picture of the crane that he had coveted for a long time.

Gu Qingzhou himself can't imitate a crane that can carry people to fly with his current cultivation, but he can take advantage of the master's rubbings directly.Every time he touches his eyes, he will consume a rubbing copy. With his cultivation base, he can only travel for an hour each time. The master only gave him ten rubbing books in total, so he has to save some critical time.

This kind of higher level can only copy successful works, and the level of rubbings is also two levels higher than Gu Qingzhou's paintings of women knocking on the door and egrets, and the cost is much more expensive.That is to say, the master is rich and powerful, so he doesn't feel pain in giving him a stack.

In Doutu Dalu, painters are like immortals, and it is also a very expensive profession.Pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and all kinds of rubbings need money.Although money can't improve one's cultivation level, it can buy more advanced rubbings. Even if one's own level is not enough to copy, it can also be used as a one-time consumable.

However, for these pictures that are difficult to copy, one touch of eye often exhausts one's cultivation.Therefore, even if you are willing to spend money, you cannot use it multiple times, and it is only used in times of crisis.

Because of the master's boldness, Gu Qingzhou carried a bunch of pictures in his badge, and enjoyed the feeling of being rich.Master was really worried that he would not be able to protect himself, and that he would not be able to come back after going out for a while.

It's a pity that on the surface, Mo Xuetao behaved calmly, and while directing the Mo girl to water the flowers and plants, he complained to his apprentice: "These plants are placed in my yard, and the style has been lowered by you. Wait for you to come back." Just move away, okay?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Master." Gu Qingzhou responded with a smile, "I will remove them all as soon as I come back."

Only then did Mo Xuetao snort softly, pushed away his sleeves and said, "Hurry up, don't delay your departure."

The HNA this time was made by Mr. Liu from the picture scroll. It was much smaller than the boat that went to Wuyan Mountain at the beginning, and there was only one boat.

However, I heard from Mr. He who was with me that this time Hengshui tested only seven people with green roots and painting hearts, and their qualifications were average.On the contrary, the pure Chiling and Baijin Egen detected one person each, and they have already been considered by Suzaku and Baijing Academy of Painting. If there is no accident, I will congratulate them for adding a new disciple.

So this trip to Hengshui, the painting academy didn't pay much attention to it, and only sent Mr. Liu and Mr. He there.

It was only after Gu Qingzhou boarded the boat that he realized that Junior Brother Ling had also accepted this mission.His first reaction was to try again, and then he threw the thought out of his mind.

My own thoughts are too lacking in classmate friendship, how can I treat my junior like this?Not good, not good.

Ling Feihang was very happy to see Gu Qingzhou, and took the initiative to block the wind in front of him, and said with concern: "Brother Gu, it's very windy here."

Gu Qingzhou felt a little cold after blowing the wind for a while, and walked to the inside of the deck.

Ling Feihang followed behind him, without looking at the shrinking mountains and rivers under the boat, he said heartily: "I didn't expect you, Brother Gu, to accept this trial. If I knew it, I would have met you first, and we could have breakfast together by the way. But It’s not too late to know now! This trip to Hengshui will take a day and a night of flying. We can hold candles at night to talk and sleep with enough feet. The next day when we wake up, we will be there.”

Ling Feihang spoke happily, but Gu Qingzhou remembered that he had an emoji.

【Arranged clearly and plainly.jpg】

If you didn't get this emoticon pack, and seeing Junior Brother Ling look like this today, the emoticon pack should have appeared, right?After leaving the painting academy for a while, he almost forgot that Junior Brother Ling was his source of inspiration.

"Your senior brother, I am physically weak, and I just want to be alone." Gu Qingzhou refused.

"But..." Ling Feihang wanted to say something, but Gu Qingzhou suddenly received a piece of exotic inspiration in his mind.

[No, no, this really hurts the body.jpg]

New emoticons appear!The bun-faced villain in the picture is waving his hands, and still has a wretched expression, but with a pair of panda ears on his head, it looks like a panda pretending to be a human, or a person playing a panda, which looks cute and funny.

Classified by traditional paintings, is this figure painting or flower and bird painting?Gu Qingzhou couldn't help being puzzled.

After getting the new emoticon pack, Gu Qingzhou looked at Junior Brother Ling with a softer look.

He didn't hear what Ling Feihang said later, but Ling Feihang thought he had a new idea, and said with a smile: "Brother Gu, have you changed your mind and want to sleep with me?"

"I'm going to rest for a while, don't disturb me." Gu Qingzhou waved his hand.

He found an empty room on the boat, went in and locked the doors and windows.

Taking out the brush, ink, paper and inkstone from the painter's badge, Gu Qingzhou started to draw the new emoticon pack in an instant.

[No, no, this really hurts the body.jpg]

Use effect: 100% successfully reject any request of the other party, and the other party will fully agree with your refusal. (Cannot take effect on those whose level is higher than itself)

Sure enough, Gu Qingzhou put away his pen and smiled slightly.The more emoticons he drew, the more he guessed the effect more accurately.

After reading it in depth again, Gu Qingzhou smiled even more.The level is higher than his own definition, and it is looser than he imagined.

He just became a painter, and Ling Feihang is already a second-grade painter, but the default level of the emoticon package is higher than his painter.In other words, this emoticon pack is valid for any artist.

Successfully rejecting other people's requests, the effect of this picture seems to be useless.But Gu Qingzhou didn't dare to underestimate any emoticon pack from a foreign land, because the emoticon pack has never disappointed.

Gu Qingzhou put away the four treasures of the study, went out of the room, and found that Ling Feihang was still on the deck.

"Brother Gu..."

"Dotting!" Gu Qingzhou whispered.The emoji effect activates.

Ling Feihang was stunned for a moment, and before he could refuse, he scratched his head and said, "Then next time, I'll talk to you about Ye Mofan from Mo Academy that I met before."

"Wait, we can talk about this." Gu Qingzhou called the other party back.

Ling Feihang didn't seem to realize it at all. For some reason, he acquiesced that he had been rejected before the other party even spoke, and planned to leave on his own.After this abnormal scene, he didn't feel anything wrong afterwards.

Inadvertently trying to use Junior Brother Ling again, this habit is not good.Gu Qingzhou silently retracted the emoji, thinking that he shouldn't just pluck the sheep's wool, what should he do if he is bald?

But there are not many people who are careless and slow to try like Ling Feihang.The other party still feels that the giant wolf who lost control in the fighting field that day was due to his own lack of skill.

When Ling Feihang mentioned Ye Mofan, he didn't want to talk about the two paintings that were all the rage recently, but the other party's cultivation.

He guessed that Ye Mofan was breaking through the pinnacle of being a painter and wanted to become a painter in one fell swoop.Talking with Gu Qingzhou about some of the feelings that he is hitting the pinnacle of the painter, Gu Qingzhou also benefited from listening.

But at night, Gu Qingzhou still refused the other party's offer of good intentions to go to sleep.

Junior brother Ling's way of expressing intimacy is actually very common in painting academies, and he doesn't have any other thoughts.But Gu Qingzhou is not used to sleeping alone in the room, unless this person is his roommate Xie Chunfeng.

The next morning, the ship arrived in Hengshui and landed smoothly from the air to the ground.

A day and a night's journey does not seem to be long, but if Gu Qingzhou relies on himself to travel day and night, it will take at least half a year to get there.

Gu Qingzhou disembarked with the teacher, not only his family from the Qingyun Painting Academy, but people from other painting academies arrived one after another.

The teacher from the Baijing Academy of Painting is a bearded, unusually tall and strong man.Not like a painter, but more like a blacksmith.

This year Hengshui produced a good seedling of Bai Jinhuixin, so he was the first to arrive.Suzaku Painting Academy followed closely behind, for fear that the good seedling with a pure heart of red spirit would be preempted by others.Especially this year they have lost a proud son of heaven, Hua Zun's beloved disciple, because of the heart-picking hands.

The bearded man said impatiently: "When is this? Don't wait for Huanggang, there is no sense of time! Let's start choosing apprentices first."

The other Houses of Representatives, knowing that Bai Jing and Huang Gang had a fight last year, did not answer the conversation, and sat in their seats drinking tea and waiting.

When the appointed time officially arrived, people from Huanggang Academy of Painting came here.

The bearded man also muttered: "A group of groundhogs."

However, those who heard these words suffered from intermittent deafness collectively, and all ignored him.

This time, Hengshui provided a total of more than 40 disciples, all of whom have passed the pre-test, screened for qualifications, and met the admission standards of the Fifth Academy.

Those who can stand here are already victors.Not everyone with a heart for painting is eligible to enter the five major painting academies.

According to their different painting attributes, they stood in five rows.

Afterwards, Gu Qingzhou saw the teachers unfold the scroll, and the thick ink came off the scroll, as if alive, lingering around the children, and finally staying on the selected disciples, forming different circles of light.

It is said that they come to Hengshui to recruit students, but in fact, what everyone values ​​are the two top-notch children this year, and the others are taken back to the painting academy by the way.

These two are girls, and each has five halos on their bodies.Each one represents the approval of a painting academy.As long as they are willing, every painting academy will open their doors to them, but they can only choose one of them.

Gu Qingzhou remembers that he also enjoyed this treatment because of his top qualifications.At that time, it was Master Mo Xuetao who was in charge of recruiting students.

Ten years ago, the other party's appearance hadn't changed at all.Shaking the fan lazily, the luxurious and cumbersome accessories all over his body made crisp sounds with his movements, which was very attractive to the young Gu Qingzhou.

"How about I accept you as an apprentice?" Mo Xuetao smiled at him gently, "Call me Master if you want."

"Master!" The young Gu Qingzhou agreed immediately, stepped forward and hugged Master's leg, and reached out to reach for the gold silk hollowed-out sachet on Master's waist. "It's so beautiful." He let out a series of clear laughter, and what responded to him was the clear and clear sound of the Linlang ornaments on the master's body hitting each other.

Gu Qingzhou no longer remembers whether he said the master was good-looking, or the sachet, or both.I only remember that Mo Xuetao hit him on the head with a fan and said, "Naughty."

Master's strength was not strong, but Gu Qingzhou was very afraid of pain at that time.

He cried all the way to Qingyun Painting Academy.

Mo Xuetao still thinks that it is because the young Gu Qingzhou is reluctant to part with his family.

Gu Qingzhou remembered that period of the past, and a smile appeared on his face.He was good-looking, and the bright red between his brows was particularly conspicuous, so that others could not help but look over him.

At this time, the inks representing the colors of each courtyard formed halos, all surrounding their favorite disciples.

"The ones selected by Qingyun Painting Academy come to me." Mr. He clapped his hands and said to the children.

What he focused on were the two girls standing at the front of the crowd.

The two girls with pure platinum and red spirit each have five different colored halos on their bodies. Every art academy that comes here today wants to win over these two children, no matter what the odds are.

The bearded girl from Baijing Painting Academy saw the girl who matched her Bai Jinhui's heart, so she almost went up and grabbed her away.

The girl came straight towards Qingyun Painting Academy, walking towards Gu Qingzhou step by step.

Master Liu and Master He were shocked immediately, and their faces showed joy.

"Son, do you want to come to our Qingyun Painting Academy?" Mr. He, a good old man, smiled contagiously.But the girl didn't look at him at all, she walked up to Gu Qingzhou and grabbed his clothes.

"It's so pretty." The girl laughed.

Gu Qingzhou was startled by her action at first, but now he couldn't help laughing.

When the two houses were arguing with each other over the ownership of the girls, several passing carriages stopped not far away.Because the Fifth Academy came and closed this section of the road, they could only detour or stay here until the enrollment was over.

"The enrollment of the Fifth Academy is rare. Could it be that there are top-level Huixin among them?" A woman said in a manly voice.Lifting the curtain of the car, revealing her face covered with a light veil.

The youthful face is half hidden, but it is difficult to hide its beauty and elegance, especially a pair of bright eyes with a hint of sadness, which is unforgettable at first sight.

If Gu Qingzhou was here, he would definitely be able to recognize the identity of the other party——Yun Zhixian.

Yun Zhixian just had a thought, the teachers of the Fifth Academy were all there, she didn't dare to go forward to make a mistake, she sat back in the car with some regrets, and instructed the driver to take a detour to leave.

Compared to her decisiveness, the owner of another passing carriage seemed more relaxed.

The young man with a pair of peach blossom eyes, under the reminder of his subordinates, put on a leather mask to cover his evil and passionate eyes, and then opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.

"Let's go and have a look." He raised his brows lightly, and wore a painter's badge on his chest.

A head of jet-black long hair casually scattered behind his head, fluttering in the wind.
