Against the sky starts from copying

Chapter 23 The Lantern Festival
"Qingjiang Art Gallery? Is there such an art gallery in Mobei City?"

"Lin Tianyang... isn't this man that good-for-nothing young master from the Lin family?"

"Being a master, the paintings he copied are also master-level, how is this possible!"

The people looking at the list in front of the gate of Meiyuan were in a mess, talking a lot, and some even began to question the fairness of the list.

However, these people only dared to whisper that the three elders of Meiyuan were famous in the entire Baisheng Dynasty. Not only were their strengths extraordinary, but they were also highly respected. No one in Mobei City dared to question the results reviewed by the three of them.

"How is it possible? There must be a mistake somewhere!" Cao Ruohai's eyes were dull. He couldn't believe that the list in front of him was actually real. Ye Qiu, even a little bit, was unacceptable to him!
Ye Qiu was also very astonished. He thought that his painting skills were now so high that he would have no match among all the participating students, but now there is Lin Tianyang who is still above him in painting skills, which really makes him very surprised. Accident.

"It turns out that the reason he was looking around idly just now is because he already has a plan for his grades!" Ye Qiu remembered the stares at each other in the examination room, and finally understood, and his fighting spirit gradually surged in his heart: "Interesting, it seems that he is definitely not like the one in the legend. You are generally a waste, but you have some real skills!"

"Young master, you are the number one, the number one!" Uncle Chen on the tree saw the list clearly, checked it several times, and finally confirmed that Lin Tianyang was the No.1 in the copy assessment!
Uncle Chen was so excited that he stomped his feet happily on the tree, watching Lin Tianwan and Granny Chen tremble with fear.

"Tianyang, you actually got No.1!" Lin Tianwan knew what the imitation assessment meant, and immediately hugged Lin Tianyang excitedly!

Granny Chen couldn't help crying: "Master and Madam can rest assured, our young master is finally promising!"

Lin Tianyang was very helpless, he was already a seven-foot man, it was unavoidable that he would feel ashamed to be picked up by Lin Tianwan and circling in mid-air in front of the public, but feeling Lin Tianwan's sincere joy, he still couldn't help laughing.

It is his greatest wish in life to make his family happy.

"Tianyang, you did a great job!" Lu Huanyu, who saw the list clearly from a distance, also rushed over, as well as Chen Guanshi, Wu Xiaoling and others. Everyone's face was filled with incredible joy, and they ran towards Lin Tianyang with loud cheers come over.

Among the fifty students who can enter the next assessment, there are no other students from the Qingjiang Art Museum, but seeing that their classmates can win the championship in one fell swoop, even if they have deep resentment towards Lin Tianyang, they are all thrown out of the sky at this moment , feeling proud.

Seeing everyone coming, Lin Tianwan felt something was wrong, so she put Lin Tianyang back on the ground, and said excitedly: "Master Lu, thank you for your cultivation of Tianyang over the years, thank you very much!"

Lu Huanyu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Girl, you're welcome, Tianyang is so upbeat, he is working hard enough himself!"

"Work hard?" Lin Tianyang thought back to the past half month of cultivation, and he didn't have much confidence in his heart: "I should count it as hard work for the past half month..."

"Good boy, it's no wonder you dare to bet [-] taels of money on yourself. You've already made up your mind!" Feeling the attention and amazement of everyone around him, Lu Huanyu suddenly felt elated. No student from Qingjiang Art Museum has ever passed the first round Now that Lin Tianyang has finally entered the list, he won the first place in one fell swoop. Even he couldn't help but have higher expectations: "Come on, and win the next two assessments in one go. You must teach Cao Cao a lesson." Ruohai some time!"

"Don't worry, the owner, I won't let others step on the head of our Qingjiang Art Gallery!" Lin Tianyang was full of confidence.

After the list is released, the [-] candidates who have entered the list need to return to the examination room again to accept the content of the second assessment released by the three elders of Meiyuan.

However, everyone in the venue already knew what the content of the second assessment was, and it was just a formality for the candidates who were selected to return to the Plum Garden.

Because the second assessment of the Plum Garden Art Association over the years is to let the candidates who enter the list draw a lantern for the Lantern Festival.

The three elders of Meiyuan adhered to the principle of being a painter to benefit the common people, and let the candidates who entered the list paint the lanterns by themselves, which also meant sharing the joy with the people, and the results of the second assessment were in the hands of every commoner who appreciated the lanterns.

Every commoner who enters the Plum Garden to appreciate lanterns will have a piece of bamboo plaque issued by the Plum Garden in their hands. They think that the lantern drawn by any examinee looks good, so they will leave the bamboo plaque under the lamp, and someone will come to count and get the bamboo plaque. The more, the higher the assessment score.

Because of this, more than [-] students and their family members who failed the ranking did not leave, but stayed to continue watching the game, also to participate in the Lantern Festival tonight.

Lin Tianyang bid farewell to everyone and was about to enter the arena. He walked all the way and met everyone's strange eyes.

Many people in the venue knew that he used to be a useless piece of trash, but now he suddenly turned into a phoenix and became a master of painting. Lin Tianyang is definitely the biggest dark horse of this year's Meiyuan Painting Fair!

Many people can't wait to know what kind of results he will achieve in the second assessment.

"To be able to win the first place in the copying assessment, in order to avoid accidents, we still have to plan early."

Zhang Wencheng in the distance also knew about the results of the rankings. Lin Tianyang's results were directly related to a huge sum of millions of taels. He had to guard against it. He immediately called Steward Zhou and explained a few words in a deep voice.

Lin Tianyang came to the gate of Meiyuan and saw Ye Qiu and Cao Ruohai and their party.

"I won the first assessment, is there any pressure?" Lin Tianyang looked at Ye Qiu and said calmly.

Before Ye Qiu could speak, Cao Ruohai gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be too complacent, you just won the first place in the copying test by chance, and you can never beat Ye Qiu in the next test!"

Lin Tianyang glanced at him and said, "Then we'll just wait and see, I hope you have already figured out how to kneel down and admit your mistake!"

"You..." Cao Ruohai was about to retort, but saw that he had walked away in a big way, and cursed angrily: "This damned trash is so arrogant after only winning one game, Ye Qiu, don't pay attention to him. Not your opponent!"

With a solemn expression, Ye Qiu said, "No, he may be my biggest opponent!"

Cao Ruohai looked at him in surprise, and didn't recover for a long time.

After confirming the identity token, Lin Tianyang stepped into the plum garden. When he walked to the front of the main hall, the students who had already been waiting here saw him coming and unconsciously stepped aside.

Lin Tian calmed down and walked slowly to the front of the team.

In the assessment of the first place, one should stand in the position of the first place.

The students who made way for the list looked at his straight back, secretly guessing why this trash suddenly became a blockbuster, and felt unwilling.

Ye Qiu walked in quickly, walked straight to his left side, and stood side by side, with the intention of fighting against each other.

The backs of the two were straight, standing still, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely weird. The other students felt the powerful momentum coming from the two, and none of them dared to speak.

After such silence for a long time, the figures of the three elders of Meiyuan finally appeared in front of the main hall, still standing in the same positions when the garden opened.

After Lu Huanyu's introduction just now, Lin Tianyang has already figured out the identities of the three elders of Meiyuan.

The old man in the middle ranks the oldest among the three elders, her name is Mo Qingmei, a high-grade painter in the Dongxu Realm, the old man on the left is ranked second, her name is Mo Qingzhu, a low-grade painter in the Dongxu Realm, and the old man on the right is the third eldest, named Mo Qinghai, a painter in the Dongxu Realm A painter in the middle of the environment.

The three elders are three brothers, one family and three caves, which is also rare in the entire Baisheng Dynasty.

Mo Qingmei looked around and saw that all the students on the list had arrived, she didn't say much greetings, and said: "Today is the Lantern Festival, celebrated all over the world, you are talented painters, you should carry forward the spirit of the saint of painting, and have the common people in your heart. The content of the field assessment is to draw Lantern Festival lanterns, the more bamboo plaques the lanterns get from the people, the higher the score, Wang Er and others will do their best to celebrate the festival with the people!"

"Yes!" The fifty students who entered the list answered loudly, and the sound shook the sky.

The cutscene went quickly, Lin Tianyang came out of the garden gate, said a few words with Lin Tianwan and others, and then returned to the carriage of Qingjiang Art Gallery.

The second assessment of the Plum Garden Art Association is not limited to the candidates alone. The three elders of the Plum Garden encourage candidates to complete the second assessment with the help of teachers or classmates. However, the paintings on the lanterns still have to be completed by the examinees themselves, and other people can only make suggestions, not ghostwriting.

Therefore, the Lantern Festival in Meiyuan is the best embodiment of the overall strength of an art gallery.

So when Lin Tianyang returned to the carriage, he saw the scene where Wu Xiaoling and others were already working hard to make lanterns.

The production of lanterns is very simple. Paper or silk cloth is used as the outer skin of the lantern, bamboo or wooden strips are used as the skeleton of the lantern, and candlesticks are placed in the middle to complete a lantern. However, it is very difficult to make it exquisite and beautiful. effort.

Wu Xiaoling and the others came from a fairly wealthy family, and they grew up with rich clothes and fine food. They had never done such rough handicraft work, but they only made a few crooked lanterns, and a few of them had bruised fingers and grinned in pain.

Lin Tianyang looked at this picture, only felt it was funny and moved. For the common honor of the gallery, those who were unhappy with him in the past seemed to have forgotten those troubles, and were working hard for his assessment wholeheartedly.

"Hey, what are you standing there looking at? We can only help you make lanterns. Have you thought about what to paint on it?" Wu Xiaoling said dissatisfiedly when she saw him standing by and watching.

"I haven't thought about it, why don't you put the love letter you wrote to me? It will definitely be popular!" Lin Tianyang joked.

Wu Xiaoling immediately became angry: "You bastard! I sincerely make lanterns for you, but you still dare to bully me!"

"Just kidding, what are you doing so seriously?" Seeing that she was really going to get angry, Lin Tianyang didn't dare to be mischievous anymore, and said, "I've already thought about what to draw, but isn't your lantern too ugly? Are you tired?"

The gallery of the Tiansheng Illustrated Book has been opened. Among the advertisements he designed in his previous life, he has done many advertisements for the Lantern Festival. The materials for the paintings are very rich. Just looking at the crooked lanterns in front of him, he is really worried that even the drawing paper is not enough. If it is not smooth, no matter how good the painting is, it will be useless.

"You can do it, come here, where have we made lanterns with our own hands?" Wu Xiaoling was very aggrieved.

Chen Hongde, who was stuffed with lanterns at the side, also raised his head, and said with a bitter face: "I have told the owner of the hall that I want to bring a lantern-making craftsman here, but the owner is very stubborn, insisting that we can do it with our own hands. Only the lanterns you make are meaningful, but it’s about the assessment, so what should be so meaningful?”

Only now did Lin Tianyang see his fat body, and he was very surprised: "Guan Chen, why did you even start making lanterns?"

"I can't help it. You are the only student who has entered the second assessment of the Qingjiang Art Museum for so many years. Of course I have to do my best for you!" Chen Hongde's fat face was full of seriousness, but Lin Tianyang was heartbroken when he saw it A warm current surged through.

"By the way, where is the owner?" Lin Tianyang suddenly discovered that Lu Huanyu was not among them.

Wu Xiaoling snorted coldly, and pouted: "The owner of the museum doesn't know how to tie lanterns, so he went to other people to learn kung fu secretly."

Lin Tianyang's forehead was covered with cold sweat. The dignified owner of the Qingjiang Art Museum actually went to learn how to make lanterns from others. Does such a thing need a painter from the Yulingjing Realm to do it himself?
When he was powerless to complain, Lu Huanyu came back with a nervous face, muttering something in his mouth.

"Master..." Lin Tianyang went up to meet him.

"Shut up, don't interrupt me!" Lu Huanyu put him aside with a single sentence, picked up a few pieces of bamboo and started to piece together, muttering in his mouth: "First this...then this...finally so……"

With the memory of a Yulingjing painter, it is not difficult to remember the craftsmanship of making lanterns. The content Lu Huanyu chanted is clear and promising, but it seems that remembering is one thing, and it is another thing to make it. He tried his best to piece together For a while, the lantern they made was crumbling, not as good as the ones made by Wu Xiaoling and the others, at least their lanterns can still hang up, and Lu Huanyu's lantern, let alone lifting it, might be blown away by a sneeze up...

"Yes, I still have to rely on myself in the end!" Lin Tianyang came to the final conclusion helplessly.

Just as he was about to start, he smelled a pleasant fragrance in front of his nose.

"Miss Wang!" Lin Tianyang smelled the fragrance and knew people, and turned to look at Wang Ziyan who was coming.

"Mr. Lin has such a good nose." Wang Ziyan praised with deep meaning, looked at the pile of crooked lanterns on the ground, covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Is this a lantern? Why is it different from what I usually see?"

Lin Tianyang smiled bitterly: "Qingjiang brand lantern, you deserve it..."

"What are you talking about?" Wang Ziyan couldn't understand his joke, and said, "I'm here to tell you that Zhang Wencheng invited a master lamp maker to the Xuanmo Art Gallery, and also gave it to many art galleries. It seems that the artisan who made the lamp was invited to make you lose in this assessment!"

"What!" Everyone in the Qingjiang Art Gallery exclaimed in unison.

"Not only that, Zhang Wencheng also sent a lot of high-quality monster animal skins to Ye Qiu in Xuanmo Art Gallery, claiming to help him win the first place in the second assessment!" Wang Ziyan continued.

Lin Tianyang sneered, and said: "It seems that I won the first place in the first assessment, which made him nervous."

"It's so shameless, how can we compare?" Wu Xiaoling was so angry that her face was puffed up. The others didn't speak, but they also lost confidence in their hearts.

Other art galleries have lamp craftsmen to help, and even the material used for the lamp skin is animal skin, no matter in terms of shape or material, Qingjiang Art Gallery has already lost more than half.

With Lin Tianyang's painting skills alone, can he really attract so many people and win the first place in the second assessment again?

Silent frustration began to spread in the arena, and even Lu Huanyu had a dignified expression.

"Okay, cheer up, we haven't lost yet!" Seeing everyone's downcast, Lin Tianyang said, "The opponents always seem to be better than us, but don't forget, this group of people were defeated by me just now." The opponent is stronger than us, so we should work harder, getting frustrated here will only waste time, as long as we are willing to fight, we will never lose!"

"That's right, what Zhang Wencheng gave, I can give too. Just ask what you need, and I will definitely satisfy you!" Wang Ziyan also chimed in, and Lin Tianyang gave her a grateful glance.

Lu Huanyu also came back to his senses, and said: "Tianyang is right, what other people do is their business, we can't give up, cheer up!"

"Okay!" The bloodiness unique to young people was immediately aroused, and they shouted in unison.

"Tianyang, do you have any ideas?" Lu Huanyu asked.

Lin Tianyang thought for a while, and suddenly thought of a kind of lantern, which seemed to have never appeared on Tianyan Continent, if...

"Wait for me!" He left a sentence, rushed to the carriage to take out the drawing paper, clicked on the Tiansheng illustrated book, and used drawing tools to make a lamp-making instruction diagram according to the memory in his mind.

Lin Tianyang returned to the field with a lamp-making illustration, spread the drawing paper on the ground, and began to describe the method of making this lamp and the materials needed.

The production process of this kind of lamp is actually not difficult. He explained his idea in a few words, and everyone present was confused and didn't understand why.

"Is this kind of lamp really feasible?" Wang Ziyan was well-informed, but she had never seen such a strange lantern before, so she couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Lin Tianyang was full of confidence: "Of course it is possible, these materials are needed right now, do you have a solution?"

"I will try my best!" Wang Ziyan carefully wrote down the concentrated materials he needed, and immediately turned around and ordered the servants to do it.

All the people from Qingjiang Art Gallery gathered together and began to make materials according to Lin Tianyang's drawings. Everyone tried their best, and Lu Huanyu was even more domineering. The wheels of the carriage were unloaded and smashed into pieces. Lin Tianyang was very suspicious of such a desperate momentum. Did the owner of the hall never think about how people like himself would go back...

Wang Ziyan quickly sent a lot of materials, beside the dilapidated carriage, the people of Qingjiang Art Gallery were working hard, working together for nearly two hours, until the sky gradually darkened, the lantern designed by Lin Tianyang was finally made come out.

The painted Lin Tianyang on the outer skin of the lantern had been copied secretly long ago, and pasted on the lantern, it was very warm after being lit, and everyone present couldn't help smiling.

When the lanterns began to change, everyone was even more mesmerized.

Wang Ziyan was also watching from the sidelines, the candlelight reflected in her beautiful eyes, shining brightly. Seeing the smug smile on Lin Tianyang's face, she couldn't help but also laughed: "I'm afraid the first place in the second assessment It must be him!"
