When Ding Xiaobu and Xu Dongpeng arrived at Chen's mansion, it was just three o'clock in the afternoon. Chen Guanchang was taking a nap. As soon as they were informed, they were asked to wait in the living room.

It’s still that study room.

As the two sat down one by one, they recalled how Mr. Chen had begged each other that day, and smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect that we would actually find him. What a great fate!"

Ding Xiaobu took out the scroll and put it on the table, sighing non-stop.

Although Xu Dongpeng didn't like calligraphy, his calligraphy, which was the best in the world, was still astonishing. He immediately said: "I came here in a hurry just now. I haven't watched it yet. I opened it first to let my eyes open. Anyway, Senior Chen still has it."

I'll be here in a while."

Ding Xiaobu stood up and opened it carefully on the table.

In fact, he hadn't read it either. When he was at Lingyin Temple, he just opened it a little. After seeing a few lines of words, he guessed it was the preface to the Lanting Collection. After that, he was so shocked that he stopped reading and returned to Shanghai, because

I didn’t even think about opening some trivial things, but at this time I had the idea to take a good look at them together.

Opening it bit by bit from right to left, Wang Xizhi's handwriting is revealed. The pen moves like a dragon and a snake, and it is majestic and majestic. It makes people praise, "The best running script in the world is the best running script in the world. It really deserves its reputation."

My hands were slightly weak, fearing that if I used too much force and ruined the treasure passed down from generation to generation, I couldn't help but start reciting as the fonts were revealed line by line.

"In the ninth year of Yonghe, when I was in Guichou, at the beginning of late spring, I met at the Orchid Pavilion in Shanyin, Kuaiji???" As they slowly began to appreciate it, the two of them were completely attracted and were still in a trance, but when they reached "enough to be extremely

Audio-visual entertainment is a must-have.

Ding Xiaobu and Xu Dongpeng were dumbfounded. There was a tear mark on the back, and then it disappeared. They were surprised and quickly opened them all. There was only the front half of the picture, not the back half. They were stunned for a while, completely

Confused.

"Why is half a sheet missing?"

Xu Dongpeng looked back and forth and saw that it was all white paper, but still nothing. He asked, "Isn't it stolen?"

"It's impossible. I've always carried it with me. It's absolutely impossible. It hasn't even passed through the hands of a second person."

Ding Xiaobu gritted his teeth and only slapped the table, recalling the memories. He didn't open them all in Lingyin Temple, and he didn't pass by the second person, so this painting of the world's best running script, Master Hongchi, only has the first half.

.

It should be like this. I couldn't help but secretly hate myself. Why didn't I open it all at that time? Now that it's fine, it's only half a page. I slapped the table again and said, "I'm letting people play with it."

But he couldn't tell what was going on, so he scolded his mother, "What the hell is going on? Could it be that only half of the best cursive script in the world is left?"

"This, this, this is impossible."

The impact on Xu Dongpeng was smaller, so he looked at it again and said, "You read that right, this must be the preface to the Lanting Collection." He didn't understand this and didn't dare to confirm.

Ding Xiaobu slumped down on the chair and murmured: "It can't be wrong, it should be the best running script in the world. Now that I think about it, half of it was left in the hands of Master Hongchi. Senior Chen Guanchang read it.

It’s just this half, I just didn’t mention it at the time, and I didn’t read it, anyway, it’s just this half.”

The meaning of Hongchi's words has already been made clear. Chen Guanchang had seen it back then, so it was definitely this half that could not escape.

Xu Dongpeng, who had not experienced the scene in Lingyin Temple, shook his head helplessly, "No matter what the reason is, it is such a cruel act of cruelty that the best running script in the world is ruined like this."

He took out the folding fan, slapped his hands, and sighed, but he also comforted Ding Xiaobu: "Mr. Xiao Ding, don't think too much. It's already great to find this half. It's also the fate of this copybook. We can't do anything about it."

Return to heaven."

There is no way back.

This sentence is very correct. This calligraphy sticker has been circulated for so many years, from Wang Xizhi to Li Shimin to Wu Zetian, and now it is in their hands again. With such a great fate, how can you ask for anything more.

He nodded and said, "Hey, it seems that we can only see this half of the world's best calligraphy." He put it away, sighed helplessly, and waited for Chen Guanchang. He also lost the arrogant mood just now.

, with a look of helplessness.

After a while, the housekeeper pushed Chen Guanchang in, who was suffering from Parkinson's symptoms. When he saw the two of them, he immediately smiled and said: "My nephew Xu Shi and Mr. Xiao Ding came over to celebrate the New Year, but they made my place flourish."

Hui."

Ding Xiaobu and Xu Dongpeng stood up quickly, "Senior Chen has given you the award, we should come." The two of them were no longer as excited as before to show off their power. Although they felt that Chen Guanchang knew, they were still a little weak.

Chen Guanchang didn't think much about it. He really thought that the two of them were here to pay New Year's greetings. He pushed him to the host and guest seats at the table and said with a smile: "I, a rough and careless old man, don't deserve the two young talents to run away all the time. I just go and get busy when I have something to do."

, I won’t be in the way here.”

Ding Xiaobu and Xu Dongpeng shook their heads, then looked at each other, and Xu Dongpeng signaled that it was better to let him speak.

Ding Xiaobu took out the scroll and said, "It's like this. The two of us came here today because the matter you told us has been settled, so we came here specifically."

He placed the scroll in front of him.

Now Chen Guanchang was so excited that he almost stood up from his seat with a face full of disbelief. He pointed at the scroll with trembling hands, "You, you mean, this, this, is the preface to the Lanting Collection."

"Um."

Ding Xiaobu nodded and opened the scroll, showing the appearance of the copybook itself, but he did not open it. He hesitated and said, "It's just that there is something wrong with this copybook."

Chen Guanchang became even more excited, "Is it only half a picture?"

The two of them were stunned for a moment, then rejoiced, thinking that what he saw back then must have been half a picture, and nodded, "Yes, it was half a picture. Now it seems that what Senior Chen saw back then must have been the best in the world."

Let’s write running script.”

Then he opened the copybook and showed it in front of him. Only half of it was the best running script in the world.

Chen Guanchang couldn't sit still anymore. With the support of the housekeeper, he stood up excitedly and looked at it bit by bit with a magnifying glass. While looking at it, he sighed, "That's it, that's it. You made me look for it so hard."

"

At the end of the viewing, I actually cried. I quickly wiped it with a handkerchief, then regained my composure, and sighed, "Can you two tell me the origin of this painting and how you found it?"

Xu Dongpeng cupped his hands and said with a smile: "This painting is the work of Mr. Xiao Ding. Just listen to him."

Only then did Ding Xiaobu tell the story under Chen Guanchang's eager gaze, "I found it in the hands of Master Hongchi, the abbot of Lingyin Temple. He asked me to fulfill his last wish decades ago. Now it seems

, you looked at it in his hands back then

The calligraphy sticker I got is of course this half of it. So by chance, I gave it to me and asked me to give it to you. I also promised to go back quickly and send it back after my new store opens.

How can I put it, it’s fate.”

"Lingyin Temple, Lingyin Temple, I went there to look for him, and it turns out he is still avoiding me."

Chen Guanchang started talking like a demon, and finally sat down again. His whole body was limp and he had no strength at all, and then he said: "Actually, the best running script in the world that I saw back then is complete."

"What?"

Ding Xiaobu and Xu Dongpeng were both stunned, and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Then, how did it become like this?" After asking, they realized that the word was in Hongchi's hand and asked him what it was for.

.

But there was another moment of confusion. He just knew that half of the copybook was left, so how could it be complete when he looked at it? It became even more confusing.

Fortunately, Chen Guanchang quickly gave the answer. Under the push of the housekeeper, the wheelchair stopped at a safe in the study. He lowered his head and entered the password by himself, and opened it.

He took out a scroll, put it on the table, and opened it without saying anything.

This time, Ding Xiaobu and Xu Dongpeng were even more shocked. It turned out to be another half of the world's best running script, and it was perfectly matched, with the remaining verses written from right to left.

"The lady's relationship will last forever" until the end. "Those who watch it later will also feel the elegance."

At this time, I took the two half pieces and put them together. They fit perfectly, even the segment marks were exactly the same. The complete version of the world's best running script was reconstructed.

But, what's going on?

How could Chen Guanchang have this half of the preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection? Why didn't Hongchi say anything? Anyway, I was completely confused about the series and I didn't know where to start the question.

Chen Guanchang coughed and gave the answer, "Back then, my father and I happened to see this best calligraphy painting in the world. As I said, my father and I had evil intentions and wanted to buy it, but in fact we couldn't buy it.

, colluded with the robbers, and wanted to rob the best running script in the world.

But I didn't expect that the monk was very skilled in martial arts and couldn't snatch it away. He even damaged the preface to the Lanting Collection. The first half is still in his hands, but the second half belongs to our father and son.

At that time, the monk was not very old. Although he was very skilled in martial arts, he could not stand up to the crowd, so he had to run away. Later, our father and son became obsessed with interests and continued to search for the whereabouts of the monk, hoping to keep them all for ourselves.

But later, God was wise, and we damaged this world's best running script. God's retribution came when my father suddenly got cancer and died.

He could not die in peace. At that time, my father told me that it was us who had committed the sin and he had to pay for it. Otherwise, he would not be able to live in peace even after he died.

I just started to donate money and materials to help the country find the national treasures that were wandering abroad. However, I still suffered retribution as I got older and contracted this incurable disease.

I have also been looking for that eminent monk. He must also know that I am looking for him, but he just doesn't want to see me, so he has been putting it off until now.

Unexpectedly, I never expected that thanks to the fate of Mr. Xiao Ding and Xu Shi’s nephew, I would actually meet them again in my lifetime.

I also understand what he means. It’s time to pay off my debt, and it’s time to return this half of the Lanting Collection Preface.” At this point, he pushed the two paintings and handed them to Ding Xiaobu, “Mr. Xiao Ding,

With your ability, you should be able to combine these two words into one. Then transfer it to the eminent monk for me. Before asking, can I go see him and confess my sins back then?

.”

"this??????"

Ding Xiaobu was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that there was such a story behind it. He didn't know what to say, so he had to agree first: "I will re-write the preface to the Lanting Collection, and it will be perfect, and return it to Hongchi."

Master, as for whether he will see you or not, I can't say, but I will definitely send a message for you when it is returned."

"That's good, that's good."

Chen Guanchang seemed to have aged ten years all of a sudden. He shook his hand and said, "This matter has been weighing on my mind for decades. I finally said it and it was done. I also have the face to see my father."
