Seeing that they were still a little doubtful, Chu Chen explained: "Xiaoyue, actually, you shouldn't be surprised. Our China has thousands of years of history, and there is no shortage of inventions and creations. Let me give you a very simple example. You can imagine it. In an era without modern equipment more than 2,000 years ago, could such a majestic Great Wall be built? " "It's just that our nation is too troubled, and its history of thousands of years is a history of wars. Many advanced technologies were lost in the flames of war because of this, and because the ancients were particularly conservative in inheritance, they often passed it on to sons rather than daughters. This rule of passing on sons but not daughters 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 were mysterious because they were lost." "Yes!" Liu Sizhe took over the words. It is richer than what we have now. Maybe the materials for this painting were made from animals, plants or minerals that were not extinct at that time." After hearing Chu Chen and Liu Sizhe's explanations, Wang Xiaoyue and Qiao Qian no longer felt like they were the same. I was so shocked just now. Liu Sizhe continued: "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, Achen, hurry up and take a look. See if this painting is signed! " "Okay! " Chu Chen nodded, then opened the scroll, and the word "Fuxing" in the lower left corner came into view. These two words also confirmed Chu Chen's guess just now, that this painting is indeed the work of Cao Buxing. Liu Sizhe said with some surprise: "I originally thought that only Zhang Sengyao could paint such a wonderful painting, but I didn't expect that the author was someone else. But who is this "Fu Xing"? He can actually have such a superb painting. Skill!" "Who else could it be? Cao Buxing!" Chu Chen said with a smile. "Hi. It turns out it's him!" Liu Sizhe thought for a moment and clapped his hands. Suddenly he 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 the ink turning into a fly? It refers to Cao Buxing." Liu Sizhe explained with a smile. It is said that when Cao Buxing was painting a screen for Sun Quan, he painted a basket of bayberry. Cao Buxing was very excited because of the praises of the people around him. He accidentally dropped the pen and ink, so he drew the ink dots into a fly. When Sun Quan came to see the painted screen, he thought a fly had actually landed on the painting, so he raised his hand to fight the fly away, but he did not expect that the fly was actually on the painting. And this is the famous story of the ink turning into a fly. It can be imagined from this. Cao Buxing's realistic painting skills have actually reached such a proficient level that they can even deceive people's eyes. "Oh, when you say that, I am reminded of a story about Cao Buxing!" Wu Ke said excitedly: "It is said that Sun Hao traveled to Qingxi and saw a red dragon descending from the sky and traveling along the waves. So. , he asked Cao Buxing to draw the shape of the dragon. Cao Buxing was highly praised by Sun Hao and kept it in the secret palace. "Later, during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Southern Dynasty, there was a long drought. The rain had not yet fallen, the fields were dry, and the crops were withered. People knelt on the ground and prayed to the sky every day, but it didn't work. Later, I didn't know whose idea it was to take the dragon painted by Cao Buxing and put it next to the water. . Sure enough, the thunder was rumbling and the rain was pouring. " "Tell me, could this red dragon picture be the one painted by Cao Buxing? " After hearing the story told by Wu Ke, everyone was really surprised. I feel that the red dragon picture in front of me is probably the painting in the story, and it is a very coincidence that when this painting was opened, there was also a thunderstorm. The two are really imaginative. "Does this painting really have the ability to move wind and rain?" Liu Sizhe said with a surprised look on his face. "How is that possible?" Chu Chen shook his head and said, "If that's the case, then this painting is simply a magical thing, and it's so magical. It's not like there is only such a legend for nearly 1,800 years. ? I think what happened just now was just a coincidence. " "Then why does it rain?" Liu Sizhe asked excitedly. Chu Chen frowned and thought for a while. He couldn't think of any reason for this kind of thing that was out of common sense. This made him mutter in his heart. Could it be that this painting really has the ability to control wind and rain? That would be a bit too farfetched. Bar? Qiao Xi 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. It can be confirmed from the side."?. " "Too! " Liu Sizhe hurriedly went to check today's weather forecast, but after a while, he came over a little disappointed. Everyone knew what was going on at a glance. "What, is it raining today? " Chu Chen said with a smile. Liu Sizhe smiled bitterly and said: "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 move wind and rain and spreads out, do you think I can keep it? " "That's right! Liu Sizhe scratched his head and laughed. For now, this painting can only be classified as a rare object. With the strength of the Chu Chen family, it can still be preserved. If it can really control the wind and rain, let alone a person. The country will be jealous, and by then it will be impossible for one person or one family to save it. ¡°Then how much can this painting be worth? "Qiao Xi asked curiously. "This value is really hard to estimate. Chu Chen shook his head and said: "After all, this painting contains some mysterious factors. Not to mention the collection value, even the research value is inestimable. If this painting is spread, it will definitely attract some collectors and even Organizations are competing for it. If the auction can be well publicized, let alone hundreds of millions, it is possible that it will be more than one billion, billions or even tens of billions! " "No, it can be so expensive?" "Qiao Xi said dumbfounded. "That's true! Things like this can no longer be measured solely in terms of money! "Liu Sizhe shrugged his shoulders and said: "So the common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade. Brother Chen, you'd better have this painting sent back to you quickly, so as not to cause any complications. " Chu Chen nodded and said, "Well, I'm going to call someone now to help me send the things back, so that I can quickly bring back what I have gained in the past few days. "At this time, he missed Hu Yong a little. If Hu Yong was here, he wouldn't have to worry about it. But because there was a breakthrough in the porcelain capital, someone needed to be sent over to sit in the formation. Uncle Wu is not in good health now. Well, Chu Chen didn't trust him to go there, and he was in Xiangjiang again, so he couldn't get away for the time being, so he could only send Hu Yong over for a while. Fortunately, Zhao Qirui had a wide network of contacts, and Xiangjiang was also his own. It is easy to find a few safe and reliable people to help escort the site. When Chu Chen called back, Qiao Xi blinked her eyes, stared at the scroll with a longing expression, and muttered: "If it happens again. How nice it would be to rain! "That look was quite cute. "Everyone smiled at her, but to everyone's surprise, God really fulfilled her wish. Just like before, after two thunders, it started to rain again outside the window. It was raining heavily, and the red dragon picture in front of them had the same dreamy and illusory picture as before. With the previous experience, Chu Chen and the others felt a little surprised when they looked at this strange picture again, but they were no longer surprised. It was not as shocking as before, but what everyone didn't expect was that they could be integrated into the picture and experience the artistic conception. At this time, Chu Chen felt. I feel like I have become the red dragon in the painting, swimming carefree in the sea of ??clouds, and a sense of freedom arises in my heart, just like the fish returning to the sea, and the tiger rushing to the mountains, it is so happy and joyful. Under such circumstances, he also unexpectedly discovered that the internal energy in his body was actually running faster. If this rate continues, it should take less than two months for him to reach the peak of Great Zhoutian. If he then If he can understand the innate meaning, he can naturally break through to the innate realm. Thinking of this, Chu Chen couldn't help but feel happy, but his emotional fluctuations soon made him break away from that mysterious artistic conception. When he came out, although he tried his best to maintain that state of mind, he deliberately fell into the inferior state. Not only did it not have the effect of maintaining it, it actually did him a disservice and watched everyone else indulge in it. In the artistic conception, Chu Chen could only smile bitterly. Fortunately, this painting belonged to him. In the future, he would be able to enter the artistic conception just now, but if he wanted to see such a wonderful scene, he had to go there. You can only see it on rainy days, and it is winter now. If you are in the capital, you don¡¯t know that you will see it again in the Year of the Monkey and the Horse. The painting was the same as before. After the red dragon roared, it changed into its original appearance, and this roar also awakened the other four people from that strange state. "Hey, what's going on. ? Why did the rain stop? I want to experience it for a while longer! "Liu Sizhe firstHe was surprised, and then said with a depressed face. Qiao Xi also nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Yes! That feeling of freedom is so comfortable!" As she said that, she looked at the time again, and then said with a look of surprise: "No, this Twenty minutes have passed, why do I think it was just a blink of an eye? " "Hey, it's true!" Others were also a little surprised. (To be continued)
