Chapter 513 Red Dragon Figure
Seeing that they were still dubious, Chu Chen explained, "Xiaoyue, you don't need to be so surprised. China has a history of thousands of years, and there is no shortage of inventions and creations. Let me give you a very simple example, as you can imagine, Could such a majestic Great Wall have been built in the age without modern equipment more than 2000 years ago?"

"It's just that our nation has too many disasters and disasters. The history of thousands of years is a history of wars. Many advanced technologies have been wiped out in the flames of war. Moreover, because the ancients are particularly conservative in inheritance, they often They are all passed on to their sons and not to their daughters, and this rule of passing on to their sons and not to their daughters has also led to the loss of many technologies."

"So, the magical things we see now may have been quite common in ancient times, but they appear mysterious because they have been lost."

"Yes!"

Liu Sizhe took over and said, "And the resources in ancient times were more abundant than ours now. Maybe the materials for this painting were made from animals, plants or minerals that were not extinct at that time."

After listening to Chu Chen and Liu Sizhe's explanation, Wang Xiaoyue and Qiao Qian were no longer as shocked as before.

Liu Sizhe went on to say: "Actually, what I am most concerned about now is who painted this painting, and it has such a high level of painting."

Wu Ke also nodded and said: "Yes, Ah Chen, hurry up and see if this painting has been signed!"

"OK!……"

Chu Chen nodded, and then opened all the scrolls, and the inscription "Fu Xing" in the lower left corner immediately caught everyone's eyes.These two words just confirmed Chu Chen's guess just now that this painting is indeed Cao Buxing's work.

Liu Sizhe was a little surprised and said: "I thought that only Zhang Sengyou could draw such a strange painting, but I didn't expect someone else to be the author, but who is this "Fu Xing"? He can have such a superb painting. skill!"

"Who else is it, Cao Buxing!" Chu Chen laughed.

"Hey, so it's him!" Liu Sizhe clapped his hands after thinking for a while, and suddenly realized: "If it's him, then it's quite normal!"

"Who is this Cao Buxing?" Wang Xiaoyue asked curiously.

"Do you know the allusion of falling ink as a fly, which refers to Cao Buxing." Liu Sizhe explained with a smile.

It is said that when Cao Buxing painted a screen for Sun Quan, he drew a basket of red bayberries. Cao Buxing was very excited because of the compliments from the people around him.When Sun Quan came to see the painted screen, he thought that a fly had landed on the painting, so he raised his hand and wanted to blow the fly away, but he didn't expect the fly to be on the painting.And this is the famous story of falling ink into flies.

From this, it can be imagined that Cao Buxing's realistic painting skills have reached such a proficient level that he can even deceive people's eyes.

"Oh, when you say that, it reminds me of a story about Cao Buxing!"

Wu Ke said excitedly: "It is said that when Sun Hao visited Qingxi, he saw a red dragon descending from the sky and walking on the waves. Therefore, he asked Cao Buxing to draw the shape of the dragon. Cao Buxing drew it very well. Success was appreciated by Sun Hao, and it was treasured in the secret mansion."

"Later, during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty, there was a long drought, and there was no rain for several months. The fields were dry and the crops were scorched. People knelt on the ground every day and prayed devoutly to the sky, but it didn't work. Later, I don't know who's idea , took the dragon painted by Cao Buxing and put it beside the water, and after a while, there was thunder and heavy rain."

"Do you think this picture of the red dragon is the one painted by Cao Buxing in the story?"

After listening to the story Wu Ke told, everyone really felt that the picture of the red dragon in front of them was probably the painting in the story, and it was a very coincidental coincidence that when the painting was opened, there was also a thunderstorm. Between is really very imaginative.

"Could it be that this painting really has the ability to call wind and rain?" Liu Sizhe said with a look of surprise.

"How is it possible!" Chu Chen shook his head and said, "If that's the case, then this painting is simply something of a fairy, and it's so magical, it wouldn't be nearly 800 years, there is only such a legend? I think [-]% of what happened just now was just a coincidence."

"Then why does it always rain?" Liu Sizhe asked excitedly.

Chu Chen frowned and thought for a while. He couldn't think of a reason for this kind of thing that was out of common sense. Bar?

Josie raised her hand and said, "Actually, if you want to know whether this painting really has the ability to control wind and rain, you only need to look at the weather forecast, and you can confirm it from the side."

"Too!"

Liu Sizhe hurriedly checked today's weather forecast, but after a while, he walked over disappointed, and everyone knew what was going on just by looking at it.

"Why, is it raining today?" Chu Chen said with a smile.

Liu Sizhe smiled wryly, "The weather forecast says there will indeed be showers!"

Chu Chen said with a smile: "You kid, don't be so sad, think about it, if this painting really has the ability to control the wind and rain, if it spreads, do you think I can keep it?"

"It's here too!"

Liu Sizhe scratched his head and laughed. For now, this painting can only be classified as a strange object. With the strength of the Chu Chen family, it can still be kept. If it is really able to call the wind and rain, let alone an individual, the country Everyone will be hot-eyed, and by that time, it will not be possible for one person or one family to preserve it.

"Then how much is this painting worth?" Josie asked curiously.

"The value of this is really hard to estimate."

Chu Chen shook his head and said: "After all, this painting contains some mysterious factors. Leaving aside the collection value, even the research value is incalculable. If this painting is spread, it will definitely attract some collectors and even some of them. Organizations are vying for it, and if the auction can be well publicized, let alone hundreds of millions, it could be billions, billions, or even tens of billions!"

"No way, it can be so expensive?" Josie said tongue-tied.

"Indeed! Things like this can no longer be measured by money alone!"

Liu Sizhe shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's why I say that I'm not guilty, but I'm guilty of conceiving Bi. Brother Chen, you'd better get this painting sent back for you, so as not to cause complications."

Chu Chen nodded and said, "Well, I'll call someone to send the things back for me now, just to bring back the harvest of these few days."

At this time, he really missed Hu Yong a little bit, if Hu Yong was around, he wouldn't have to trouble himself.

However, because there was a breakthrough in Porcelain City, it was necessary to send someone to sit in the battle.Now that Uncle Wu's health is not very good, Chu Chen is not worried about him going over, and since he is in Xiangjiang again, he can't get away temporarily, so he can only send Hu Yong over for a while.

Fortunately, Zhao Qirui has a very wide network of contacts, and Xiangjiang is also his territory, so it is very easy to find a few safe and reliable people to help escort him.

When Chu Chen called and came back, Qiao Qian blinked her eyes, stared at the picture scroll eagerly, and muttered, "It would be great if it rained again!" She looked quite cute.

Everyone was amused by her and smiled, but to everyone's surprise, God really granted her wish. Like just now, after two thunderclaps, it rained heavily outside the window again, and the red picture in front of her In Long Tu, the same dreamy and illusory scene just now appeared again.

With the previous experience, when Chu Chen and the others looked at this strange picture again, although they still felt a little bit of surprise in their hearts, they were no longer as shocked as they were just now, and they were able to appreciate this strange picture calmly.

It's just that everyone didn't expect that in this way, they can be integrated into this picture and experience the artistic conception in it.

At this time, Chu Chen felt as if he had become the red dragon in the picture scroll, swimming carefree in the sea of ​​clouds, and a sense of carefreeness arose in his heart, just like the fish returning to the sea, the tiger running to the mountains, It's really fun.

Moreover, under such circumstances, he also unexpectedly found that the internal energy in his body was circulating at a faster speed. At this speed, it should take less than two months for him to reach the peak of the Great Zhou. If he can comprehend the innate meaning at that time, then he can break through to the innate realm naturally.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, but the emotional fluctuations quickly made him break away from that mysterious artistic conception. Although he tried his best to maintain that state of mind, he deliberately Instead, he fell into a lower position, which not only failed to maintain the effect, but also helped him.

Seeing that everyone else was intoxicated in the artistic conception, Chu Chen could only smile bitterly. Fortunately, this painting belonged to him. In the future, if he had the opportunity, he could still enter the artistic conception just now, but he wanted to appear like this. Such a wonderful scene can only be seen on a rainy day, and it is winter now. If you are in the capital, you don’t know that you will be able to see it again in the year of the monkey.

Thunderstorms came and went quickly, and the rain was over in a short while, and the strange painting in front of me was the same as before. After the red dragon groaned, it changed into its original appearance, and this The long chants also awakened the other four from that wonderful state.

"Huh, what's going on? Why did the rain stop! I want to feel it for a while longer!" Liu Sizhe was startled at first, and then said with a depressed face.

Josie also nodded again and again, "Yes! Yes! That feeling of freedom is really very comfortable!"

After speaking, she looked at the time again, and then said with a look of surprise: "No, it's been 10 minutes, why do I feel like it's just a blink of an eye!"

"Hey, really!" The others were also a little surprised.
