Zhong Yue came back from the city and was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. Thinking that it was still early, he went to Li Deming's Yinzhai to visit.

Li Deming met guests on one or two days, but usually there were no guests on weekends. However, Zhong Yue greeted him in advance and went in.

The masters didn't work on weekends and didn't come to the Yinzhai to work on weekends. Zhao Zhimin didn't see Zhong Yue for a long time. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhong Yue carrying a few scrolls, and his eyes lit up.

"Come on, what gifts should I bring?"

Since he collected the yellow rosewood from Zhong Yue, Zhao Zhimin has made great changes to Zhong Yue and Zhao Zhimin.

Zhong Yue takes action, and it is a treasure!

He came to Seizhai twice, once with the Tianhuang seal, and once with the Hailan Huanghuali wood. This time, it would be...

Zhao Zhimin reached out to grab it, but Zhong Yue did not dodge it.

"Uncle Zhao, this is not for Mr. Li. I have to go to the high school party later to give it to the teacher."

"To the high school teacher? You're really showing off. Let me see what kind of painting it is."

Zhong Yue handed it to Zhao Zhimin, "You're going to give me a palm?"

"Haha, it's not me who brags. I still have a certain appreciation for calligraphy and painting."

Li Deming happened to walk out with a purple clay pot. When he saw Zhong Yue and Zhao Zhimin fiddling in the main hall, he walked in.

"What are you doing?"

Zhao Zhimin turned around with the scroll and said, "Xiao Yue wants to give him the paintings of his teacher, I'm bored to take a look."

Li Deming lifted up his long gown and stepped into the entry threshold.

"Hello, Mr. Li."

"Um."

Li Deming took the thermos bottle under the Eight Immortals table, poured water on the purple clay pot, and placed it aside. He took a scroll and pulled it apart, "Chinese painting?"

Zhao Zhimin had already spread out halfway, and his eyes were swept down, "Fine brushwork?"

Zhong Yue’s paintings of mountains are integrated into the magical and human brushwork. The rugged and steep places can make people feel chilled behind them.

Peaches all over the mountains are coming into view.

The forests are dyed all over the mountains, and the mountains are red, like layers of flowers and waves.

The most exquisite part is a flat painting. The peach forests on all sides of the mountain are of different colors and look full of three-dimensionality, as if it is like the scene in front of you, but the artistic conception is profound.

"It's so good to paint. Look at the coloring and ink painting. It's the work of a famous artist in modern times." Zhao Zhimin slowly pulled the scroll with some appreciation.

"But modern and modern fine brushwork is well drawn, especially in this way, not many people color the lines. Master, who do you think this is the work?"

Li Deming glanced at him and said calmly: "Drawn by Zhong Yue."

"Zhong Yue? Are there any painters named Zhong in modern times? Zhong Yue?! Zhong... Zhong Yue!"

Zhao Zhimin's hand holding the scroll trembled, and he looked at the beautiful small calligraphy on the signature on the head of the head in shock. It was really painted by Zhong Yue!

He looked at Zhong Yue with some disbelief, "You... did you draw it?"

"Um."

After reading the scrolls one by one, Li Deming said calmly: "I advise you not to give these paintings to others, otherwise you will regret it in the future."

Zhao Zhimin looked at Li Deming in even more shock, and couldn't say anything for a while. What does Li Deming mean? It doesn't matter if a painter who has not made any progress in drawing something and giving it out, but what about the top painter?

If you succeed in the future, some paintings that have flaws in the early stage and use a young brush will be regarded as sky-high paintings to be presented to the world. For a painter, when standing at such a height, and then letting the works that use a young brush and paint in a young way spread throughout the world, there will often be an idea of ​​erasing them.

"It's okay. Except for this painting, I have issued a copy of the Taoli Tianxia, ​​the other three paintings are all unsigned and given to the teacher, and it doesn't matter."

Li Deming could see that compared to the fine works in Zhao Zhimin's hand, the other three seem to be somewhat coping, and are far less exquisite in painting than this "Tao and Plum World".

"Who did you learn this painting?"

“Self-study.”

Zhong Yue originally wanted to learn from his father, but when he thought that this was not something that made Wang Ximeng take advantage of it. He learned it himself through the system, and there was nothing wrong with it.

The interior is a little quiet.

Zhao Zhimin looked at Zhong Yue with a dull look, as if he was going to chop off this pretentious boy. He was self-taught? He was cheating! He was almost caught up with those painters with six or seven years old foundation, and he was still self-taught?

Li Deming glanced at Zhong Yue and said, "You know how to draw lines and fill in the lottery?"

"Um."

Old Li's eyes were a little vicious, and he could see at a glance how Zhong Yue filled in the painting method.

There are various techniques for coloring in Chinese paintings, such as coloring, dyeing, covering color, breaking color, splashing color, etc. However, in Wang Ximeng's fine brushwork, the main techniques used for coloring are to draw lines, coloring, and splashing coloring, which are techniques that were later found. Therefore, except for drawing lines, fill lines, fill colors, and splashing colors, Zhong Yue is not very familiar with the other techniques.

Li Deming said: "Your fine brushwork landscape is already very accurate, but your technique is too monotonous."

"Thank you Mr. Li for your advice."

"I don't have the ability to guide you. In this way, I have an old friend who might take you to see it. If you are lucky and join him, it will be of great help to your painting."

Zhong Yue said: "I'm afraid it won't work very well in a short period of time."

"how?"

"I'm going to the East China Academy of Fine Arts."

Zhao Zhimin was stunned, "No, aren't you a student from Huizhou University? What are you doing at East China Academy of Fine Arts?"

Zhong Yue told Li Deming about Liu Shao'e's suggestion, after all, Li Deming also helped him a lot.

"Well. It's good to learn systematically, but Liu Shao'e is capable. But Zhong Yue, you have to be mentally prepared."

“What preparation?”

"East China Academy of Fine Arts is not a small place. Be careful in everything and be kind to others."

Zhong Yue was a little amused and crying. He was going to school, so why did he feel like he was going to grab territory by himself?

Li Deming stood up and said, "You wait."

Under the eyes of Zhao Zhimin and Zhong Yue, Li Deming walked out of the main hall.

"What are you going to do?"

"I don't know." Zhao Zhimin pulled away the painting "Tao and Plum World" next to him, "Tell me the truth, is he really self-taught?"

Zhong Yue said: "Really."

“…”

Li Deming returned to the house, held a small brocade box in his hand, handed it to Zhong Yue, and said, "This is for you."

Zhong Yue opened the brocade box and saw that there were many seals inside. He knew it was not an ordinary thing at first glance.

"So expensive, Mr. Li, how can I make it?"

"You don't have to be polite to me. Only when I meet someone who is tempted will I help carve seals. These are the fine works I have left over the years, and the calligraphy and paintings I have to print well. Your future journey is still long. If my seals can be kept in masterpieces in the future, it will be a lifetime wish."

Since Li Deming said so, Zhong Yue did not refuse and said, "There are a few ink ingots here. I came here today to give it to Mr. Li, but I didn't expect that the ink was not given out, but instead took such a big advantage for you."

"Ink ingot?"

Li Deming picked up a piece of ink ingot and flicked it.

Shiny!

The crisp sound of gold and stone sounded in the room.

"Good thing!"
Chapter completed!
