Chapter 153: Immortal Temple Painting

Hangzhou City, Eight Immortals Temple.

Su Yang walked through the corridor, watching everything in the Eight Immortals Temple, planting flowers in this courtyard, blooming in the wind, bringing fragrance. As Su Yang passed through the corridor, he saw many people who were already waiting in the Eight Immortals Temple.

Governor Gu was in front of him and saw Su Yang, he did not dare to salute him, for fear of revealing Su Yang's identity. When others in the Eight Immortal Temple saw Su Yang here, the atmosphere became noisy.

Today is when Su Yang and Liu Ke painted the Eight Immortals here. All the people who appeared here were famous gentry and scholars in Hangzhou City, and all the ordinary people who wanted to join in the fun were stopped outside at this time.

"It turned out to be him..."

In the crowd, Mr. Huang saw Su Yang and said in surprise.

"What's wrong with Mr. Huang?"

The person next to him asked Mr. Huang.

Mr. Huang, who robbed birds with a vendor yesterday, now had scratches on his face and his legs trembled. When he saw the person next to him asking, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I've seen him yesterday."

Mr. Huang’s impression of Su Yang is that his wife is beautiful.

"Master Huang, what's going on with the injury on your face?"

The people next to him asked knowingly.

"The grape trellis at home fell."

Mr. Huang said in a muffled voice.

The grape trench collapsed, which was actually a kind of obscure statement of fear of his wife. It was said that a person was talking to the county magistrate. When the county magistrate asked about the scar on the face, the man said that the grape trench in his home had fallen. The county magistrate didn't believe it and thought that the woman in his home was digging his face, so he wanted to pull the woman to the lobby for interrogation. It happened that the county magistrate's wife was in the back hall and scolded the county magistrate. If he dared to interrogate other people's wife, his own grape trench would also collapse, and the matter would be abandoned.

Everyone knew that Mr. Huang’s wife was a tigress. At this moment, when Mr. Huang’s answer was answered, the atmosphere became happy.

The happiness of everyone did not affect Su Yang and Liu Ke.

When Liu Ke saw Su Yang, he bowed slightly to Su Yang.

Liu Ke is in his forties. When he met Su Yang, he no longer had the trembling he had when he was in the Lu Mansion. It was thought that because the Rakshasa Ghost King had been killed, Liu Ke could relax his heart, and this relaxation of his heart is also very important in painting.

Su Yang also bowed to Liu Ke.

"Everyone..."

Governor Gu stood on the spot and said to the crowd: "We all know that the Lu family originally wanted to paint the Eight Immortals, but the Lu family was a descendant of Lu Boyuan, a thief of the dynasty. They all took stolen goods and dirty money. When the government confiscated the Lu family, there were even demons born and caused trouble in Hangzhou. Fortunately, the Eight Immortals appeared in the world, killed the demons, and protected our Hangzhou safety..."

Governor Gu talked about the causes and consequences, and the gentry around him nodded.

"We are here today to invite two major painters of the world, Mr. Liu, who painted a portrait of Concubine Dong for the emperor, and this one is Master Su who stood out in the Lu Mansion..."

Governor Gu introduced Su Yang and Liu Ke in a general way, and invited the two of them to walk into the main hall. In this main hall, pen, ink, paper and ink were prepared.

All four directions of the main hall are filled with statues of the Eight Immortals. Su Yang looked at the Eight Immortals here. All the statues of the Eight Immortals are in a good state, and their charm is also in line with the Eight Immortals seen by Su Yang.

Liu Ke, opposite Su Yang, was obviously ready, and hesitated to draw at this time. After Su Yang picked up the pen, he looked at the drawing board in front of him, and then hesitated a little, and then began to paint on the scroll.

Su Yang and Liu Ke started painting, and the people around naturally did not dare to show off. Even if they wanted to go to Su Yang and Liu Ke for a look, they had to be careful and dare not make loud noises. Governor Gu obviously knew about this when he asked them to come here.

Su Yang and Liu Ke were painting silently, while the people outside were careful, only the birds on the trees were chirping from time to time.

"thump……"

Just as he was painting, there was a sudden sound of falling down. The plop was extremely loud and sudden. With the plop, everyone who was quietly watching the painting looked over there, and the scene immediately became a mess.

"Hiss..."

Liu Ke angrily tore the scroll in his hand to pieces, looked outside, and shouted angrily: "Who told you to bark here?"

While he was concentrating on painting, he was suddenly clamored by the sound, which made his pen and ink scratch a little more, and all the portraits he made were invalid.

When these words angered the people outside, they were all local gentry and prominent families. When did anyone dare to say that they were laughing and barking for dogs? From this, they looked at Liu Ke one by one, and their eyes were wrong.

The servants led by Governor Gu immediately walked over there and pulled the people who were noisy there. They saw that it was Mr. Huang who fell among the crowd. Seeing Governor Gu's angry gaze, Mr. Huang knelt down to Governor Gu, kowtowed quickly, and said, "Governor, it's unfair..."

"Unfortunate?"

When Governor Gu heard this, his brows raised and asked, "But someone tripped you?"

"no."

Mr. Huang shook his head quickly.

"That's what you fell down?"

Governor Gu looked at Mr. Huang and said dissatisfiedly: "The earth is flat. Even a baby who just knows how to walk may not fall down here. Are you here specifically for causing trouble?"

When he heard this, Mr. Huang shook his head and said, "No, no, I dare not cause trouble. The governor's face was all because the villain didn't sleep well last night. He knelt on the ground until the fifth day of the day. He only slept a little while when dawn was approaching. Everyone was talking, and I could hold it back. Later, everyone stopped talking, and my legs were already sore, so I fell asleep while standing here..."

When talking about these things, Mr. Huang felt very wronged.

He knelt on the ground until the fifth day of the fifth day, and his knees were almost ruined. He was able to stand here with all his respect for Governor Gu.

"oh?"

Governor Gu has been resurrected since Baozhu died and was reasonable. Hearing Master Huang’s pain, he asked, “Why did you kneel until the fifth day of the day?”

In this public public, Mr. Huang was extremely reluctant to talk about his embarrassing things. But the governor asked, he wanted to say it after all. Therefore, after organizing the language, he knelt on the ground and lowered his head and said, "The little girl is really powerful. After marrying a villain, she never allowed the villain to take a concubine. The villain checked the prescription for jealousy. Every time she feeds her a little, she can be kind to me, but after feeding this for a long time, she will still be beaten by her when she says she takes a concubine..."

I obviously drank jealousy soup, but the effect of jealousy does not seem to be.

Mr. Huang couldn't understand this.

"Last night, I stewed her yellow bird soup. After she finished drinking it, her stomach hurts. She was struggling in bed until midnight, and said that I was hurting her and wanted me to meet the officials and die with me. I knelt in front of the bed and told her that she was drinking jealous soup, not a deadly soup. After that, she asked me to kneel on the ground, let the maid and maid beat me up, and then made me kneel until dawn..."

This yellow bird is also the recipe for daily life. His wife has been eating it for a long time and it’s fine. Why did she feel stomachache when she ate it last night? Master Huang couldn’t understand it either.

In Mr. Huang's opinion, this incident naturally made him very unhappy, but the sorrows and joys of people cannot be connected. His incident made the gentry and celebrities in Hangzhou laugh.

"This woman's heart is also fleshy. If you treat her better than you on weekdays, she will naturally be kinder to you."

"Why is your wife so angry? Isn't it because you're drinking jealousy soup..."

The gentry mocked Mr. Huang.

"Let's go."

Governor Gu waved his hand to Mr. Huang and said, "You go home and go to bed, you don't need you here anymore."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Huang stood up in a panic and walked out. In his opinion, today's incident made him escape from the "upper class" and become a laughing stock, making him full of resentment.

But although he was very unhappy, he couldn't find a reason to leave.

There was a farce outside. In this Eight Immortal Temple, the painting continued. Liu Ke repainted it, and Su Yang had already put down his pen at this time.

Governor Gu walked to Su Yang and looked at the portrait above. In the scroll in front of Su Yang, the eight immortals, Lu Dongbin, He Xiangu, Han Zhongli, Tieguai Li, Lan Caihe, Han Xiangzi, Zhang Guolao, and Cao Guojiu, all enforced their law-making weapons according to the direction of the Eight Trigrams, each enforced the law-breaking weapon, and they were in the air, and they each handed their palms, and they called the demons below. They were also surrounded by Eight Trigrams patterns.

The demon below is the Rakshasa Ghost King, who is hundreds of feet tall, and the city of Hangzhou is vaguely covered with outlines, but he is exhausted and is raising his hand and fighting stubbornly.

There is only one finger difference between the palm of the Eight Immortals and the Rakshasa Ghost King, and it is not yet reached. However, when everyone sees such a picture, they will naturally know in their hearts that when the palm of the Eight Immortals touches this demon, it is the time when the demon is subdued.

The difference between the Eight Immortals and the Rakshasa Ghost King made the whole painting "move".

Su Yang stepped forward and gently walked to Liu Ke and looked at Liu Ke's scroll. He saw that the painting was on a sea, with clouds rising on the sea, while He Xiangu held a lotus flower, Lu Dongbin held a long sword, Han Zhongli held a banana fan, Lan Cai and jade board... The beauty of this painting is that all the characters are vivid, and this painting is a "dead painting", and the people inside have no dynamic feeling.

Just like the patterns that are usually painted for immortals, the exquisiteness is that the immortals painted by Liu Ke are more exquisite.

After Su Yang stood here and saw that the winner had been decided. He shook his head without disturbing Liu Ke, and got up and walked outside the Eight Immortals Temple.

"This 100,000 taels of silver is regarded as the court granted it to you."

Su Yang said to Governor Gu: "Repair the Eight Immortals Temple and remove the evil sacrifices in Jiangnan. The remaining money will be implemented according to the water conservancy project in Jinling City, and use them where they should be used."

Jinse returned to the Guyuan, and Su Yang would not need this 100,000 taels of silver.
