Chapter 178 Strange Painting

Wu Daozi once studied calligraphy with Zhang Xu and He Zhizhang, and experienced the way of using brushes by watching Gongsun Da Niang dance sword.Good at Buddhism and Taoism, gods and ghosts, figures, landscapes, birds and beasts, vegetation, etc., especially good at Buddhism, Taoism, figures, and mural creation.The handwriting is falling and the momentum is majestic.There are more than [-] murals, "miracles and strange shapes, no one in common".Painting the round light of Buddha statues, pillars and beams of houses, bending bows and straightening blades is all done with one stroke.Such a variety shows its high level.

In history, whether it is the records of historical books, or many historical celebrities such as Zhang Yanyuan, Jing Hao, Su Shi, etc., they all admire Wu Daozi's calligraphy and painting level.

Moreover, although there are many works of Wu Daozi, none of his paintings have been handed down due to various reasons in history. The "Song Zi Tian Wang Tu" handed down to this day may also be a copy of the Song Dynasty.Now that Old Chen actually said that he has such a character's work, how can this not surprise Chu Chen and the others inexplicably.

At this time, Zhao Qirui said with a slightly anxious expression: "Old Chen, what are you waiting for, go get the painting and let us open our eyes!"

"This... ok!"

Old Chen hesitated for a moment, then went to open the box that he took out just now, took out a scroll that looked yellowish from a distance, and walked back.

When Lao Chen approached, Chu Chen and the others discovered that the painting had not been mounted, and they thought it was paper, but it was not paper, but it did not look like silk, because if it was really silk, it had not been framed for so many years. The frame was likely to be broken, but the scroll in Lao Chen's hands not only looked complete but also quite soft.

But when Old Chen came to Baojue's sensing range, Baojue would react, which made Chu Chen excited. Could it be that this thing is really a painting drawn by Wu Daozi?
The painting was about 1.2 meters long and about [-] centimeters wide. It was quite large in terms of size, but when Lao Chen fully unfolded the painting, Chu Chen and the others all showed disappointment on their faces.

This painting should be based on the legendary Wu Daozi's "River and Sea Pentium". The whole work is divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part occupies almost three-fifths of the space, but it is empty. See It sounds a little abrupt, but if you look closely, there seem to be some golden dots of various sizes on the canvas.

In addition to a reef in the lower left corner, the lower part is painted with layers of waves, and the upper right corner also mentions the inscription of Wu Daozi.

This painting looks like a big scene, but the whole work looks quite plain, without any momentum that the waves should have. How can this be Wu Daozi's painting?Anyone who knows a little about the art of calligraphy and painting will know that this is not genuine.

In addition, the three characters of Wu Daozi are also quite satisfactory. You must know that Wu Daozi's brushwork was thin in his early years, and his style was dense. In his middle age, he became vigorous, his lines were full of movement, his thickness changed alternately, and his lines were mellow like "water shield strips". Between dots and strokes, there are gaps from time to time, and there is a cleverness in the inconsistency of the writing, but these three words do not show a little bit of his style from it.

After seeing the whole painting, Zhao Qirui said rather speechlessly: "Old Chen, is this the painting of Wu Daozi you mentioned?"

Old Chen smiled awkwardly, and said, "This... I didn't plan to take it out at first."

Hearing this, Zhao Qirui remembered Lao Chen's hesitant look before, so he said angrily: "I said, Lao Chen, since it is fake, you can just say it and it's over, which made us happy for nothing. "

Old Chen chuckled, and muttered to himself: "I didn't understand it before, what if it's true?"

In fact, Lao Chen’s family doesn’t know much about calligraphy and painting. They didn’t know who Wu Daozi was before, but the daughter-in-law married by the eldest son usually likes to read novels like Shan Hai Jing, but one day they read a story about Wu Daozi. , I suddenly remembered that there was a painting by Wu Daozi at home.

This time, she and Lao Chen couldn't help being excited. This is a fairy-like figure painting. Needless to say, it will definitely be worth a lot of money. Maybe their family will have no worries from now on. indefinite.

Thinking about it this way, the whole family couldn't sit still, and quickly asked the relationship to identify it, but everyone said it was a fake that could no longer be faked.

In the end, they didn't give up, and went to the antique market to find a master craftsman to appraise it, but the result was still the same.But the man was very curious about drawing paper, and was willing to pay 500 yuan to buy it, but there was no accident at home at that time, so Lao Chen didn't agree.

Although the result was like this, Lao Chen was still a little unwilling. After all, this was something passed down by his ancestors. Before his death, his father said that he must keep it safe. It is worthless for no reason!That's why I took it out again this time for Chu Chen and the others to have a look at it. As a result, this time, Lao Chen was completely discouraged. I didn't expect that it was really a fake!

Although it is a fake, it was handed down from the ancestors after all, so Lao Chen is going to put the things in the box.

"and many more!"

Seeing that Old Chen wanted to take the painting away, Chu Chen quickly stopped him, saying, "Old Chen, are you going to sell this painting?"

At this time, Chu Chen's voice was like the sound of nature to Old Chen. His heart was beating wildly, and he thought to himself, is this painting real?Then am I going to make a fortune?So he quickly asked: "Boss Chu, do you want to buy it?"

Seeing Lao Chen's expression, Chu Chen knew what he was thinking, so he smiled and said, "Old Chen, don't you still think this painting is real?"

Old Chen couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, and then said: "Boss Chu, what do you mean by that? It's not true. Why do you want to buy this painting?"

Chu Chen laughed and said, "I'm not interested in this painting now, but only in this drawing paper."

After Old Chen heard the words, he was very disappointed. He didn't think that what Chu Chen said was a lie, because the previous appraiser also said the same.

However, Old Chen turned his head and thought that it was useless for him to leave it alone. How much money he sold could be exchanged for some money to supplement his family, so he asked, "Boss Chu, how much can you pay?"

Chu Chen thought for a while and said, "Just 1000 yuan, how about it?"

When Lao Chen heard the price, he shook his head repeatedly and said, "One thousand is not enough, it's too little. After all, this is something passed down from my ancestors, and it costs at least five thousand."

"One thousand five!"

"four thousand!"

"One thousand and eight..."

In the end, the two sides talked about two thousand and three, and Lao Chen reluctantly agreed, but he said secretly in his heart: "Rich people just don't take money seriously. It's just such a thing, and it's not real. It would cost two thousand and three to buy it, it’s really crazy.”

And Chu Chen, who bought the painting, was also very excited.

To be honest, considering the level of this painting, it is impossible for Chu Chen to think that this painting was painted by Wu Daozi, but Baojue reacted to it before, which made him a little unwilling, could it be because The drawing paper is special, so Baojue has a reaction?

Thinking of this, he immediately used the ability. He didn't expect the result of using the ability to be so amazing.Immediately, a wave of psychic energy poured into his left hand in an instant, and the psychic energy was so powerful that it broke through all the rules for upgrading abilities. The original progress bar of [-] suddenly increased to [-].

It's a pity that the barrier of the third-level ability is too thick. Although the spiritual energy is very powerful, it still failed to break through that barrier in the end, which made Chu Chen feel a little regretful.But now is not the time to think about it, because this painting really surprised him.

First of all, the ability should not deceive him. In terms of value and age, this painting should probably be an authentic work by Wu Daozi, but the strangeness is here. Since it is an authentic work, where is it really? Chu Chen really couldn't see this.

This painting is not a picture-in-picture like Zheng Banqiao's painting before, because it can be seen that the painting paper is only a thin layer, and this painting has not been framed, so Chu Chen got it from Mr. Liu There is no possibility that there will be a picture-in-picture experience.

And there is another magical point, since this painting has not been framed and has not undergone any special preservation methods, why can it survive nearly 300 years and still be preserved so well without any damage? It's amazing to think about it.

But it is definitely impossible to have so much psionic power based on this piece of paper alone, and this made Chu Chen confused. Since it is not a picture-in-picture, what is it based on? Is it really based on the above? Doesn't the painting on the canvas make it?Don't be kidding me, okay?
After all these things, Chu Chen bought this seemingly fake painting.

Although Zhao Qirui wondered how Chu Chen would think of buying this painting, but this painting doesn't cost a lot of money, and besides, it's still in someone else's territory, so it's inconvenient to ask.Originally, he planned to take a look at the other two items, but Bu Chuchen stopped them calmly, and immediately let him know that there was something wrong with these two items.

After all, Zhao Qirui had a lot of experience in the world, because of this incident, he immediately thought of a lot, and also understood why Chu Chen saw the miserable appearance of the old Chen family, and would lower the price as if nothing happened.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qirui asked with a smile: "Old Chen, do you have all these things in your house? To be honest, this makes me a little disappointed! Although the things are not bad, except for the bowl, everything else is nothing but Some ordinary goods!"

Hearing this, Lao Chen panicked, what does this mean?Could it be that the other two items can't be sold at a high price?My son will have to pay at least 100 million this time. If he wants him to come out earlier, he will have to pay hundreds of thousands more. What if he really can't sell at a high price?

Thinking of this, Lao Chen couldn't help crying, and said: "Mr. Zhao, I also want to have more things at home, but the ancestors left so much, and I can't help it. It's just the situation of our family, you have also seen it. Will the price be…”
