Chapter 262 Picture of Hundreds of Rats in Dongshan
Jiang Yan got the answer he wanted. He could still afford the ransom of one million taels after saving. These barbarians had been with Tianshe Mansion for so many years, how could Jiang Yan just sit idly by and ignore them.
Just when Jiang Yan was about to leave, he was stopped by Xiao Bingji.
"Painter Jiang, we've finished talking about your matters, it's time to talk about mine."
"You have something to do with me?"
"I want to ask you to draw a screen wall"
“What type of screen wall?”
There are some types of screen walls such as longevity, landscapes, and townhouses. Jiang Yan looked at the environment of the rat building and found that it was so dilapidated that there seemed no need to build a screen wall.
"mouse"
Jiang Yan was sure that he heard correctly. Xiao Bingji seemed to have a special liking for rats. All the rats in the yard obeyed his orders and even painted a shadow wall of rats.
The mouse was not very difficult, and there would definitely be places where he would have to deal with Xiao Bingji in the future, so Jiang Yan did not refuse.
“Simple, where is the screen wall?”
"I have some requirements for this mouse screen wall..."
"Speaking"
"There must be many painting spirits. The more the better, preferably hundreds."
Jiang Gu himself has painted many spirits in one painting. His crested eagle has thirty spirits in one painting, but painting hundreds of spirits is really complicated.
"There are many famous painters in Daxuan City, why don't you invite them?" Jiang Yan asked.
"I can't hire a good painter, and they don't even bother to come here. I don't like bad painters, but Mr. Jiang, you are the number one in the Eight Prefectures and the best candidate." Xiao Bingji praised Jiang Gan.
"I'm just a painter in the Xuanling realm. Painting a hundred spirits is beyond my ability."
"The grade of the screen wall does not need to be too high, it can be medium grade."
If it was a wonderful painting, Jiang Yan couldn't even think about it. Even if he opened hundreds of acupuncture points and had strong spiritual power, he wouldn't be able to sustain it. There is still some possibility for a medium-grade painting.
"If it's a single painting spirit, I can give you clothes, a screen or a wall. Hundreds of painting spirits consume a lot of spiritual power and energy. The price is not cheap, and you need to bring your own paint."
"Don't worry, the paint has been prepared a long time ago. As for the reward..."
Xiao Bingji clapped his hands and sent back the banknotes that had just been taken away by the rats intact.
"I answered Painter Jiang's seven questions. One hundred and forty thousand taels of silver should be enough."
Jiang Yan knelt down and took back the banknotes from the mouths of the rats.
"Why go to all this trouble? I'll help you make the screen wall, and you answer my questions. Isn't that enough?"
"It's different, it's different. You need to distinguish between the two, and you can't break the rules."
"When to start painting and where to paint"
Now that you have agreed and received the money, you must have professional ethics.
"Why don't you take a nap and start working on it early tomorrow morning, right here in the yard?"
When Jiang Yan first came in, there was a wall covered with cloth behind the gate. Now when the mice removed the cloth, a huge screen wall was actually revealed.
"Pigments, someone will bring them to you after dawn."
Jiang Yan readily agreed. The method of painting mice was very simple, and middle-grade paintings came easily to him. The only trouble was that he needed to paint hundreds of them.
In fact, Jiang Chan already had some guesses about the purpose of this screen wall. He had seen a special kind of enlightenment in Lu Daoxuan's handwriting, the control of beasts.
After the beast master becomes enlightened, he can form a unique connection with a certain kind of animal creature and control it for his own use. Jiang Yan guessed that the animal master after this enlightenment will control rats.
When Jiang Gu arrived as promised, Xiao Bingji had already sent someone to deliver the needed paint.
The screen wall pays attention to the unity of spirit and rhythm. If there is a break in the middle, it will take a long time to get into the previous state.
Jiang Yan looked at the screen wall. The lotus base was made of white jade. It was of high quality and must have been ready for a long time.
Since we want to draw mice, the first thing we need to draw is the surrounding environment, so that so many mice appearing on the screen wall at the same time will not be a bit abrupt.
Jiang Yan had already completed the composition last night. He stood in front of the screen wall, raised his pen with his wrist hanging, drew the shape of the mountain with thick ink, and then began to challenge it.
A hillside land first appeared on the screen wall. In fact, the hillside began to slowly become stained with trees, and some mice poked their heads out among the trees and jungle.
Using the Danqing method to paint, spiritual power was injected into the tip of the pen, stained with paint, and with only a few strokes, a vivid mouse appeared on the screen wall.
There were originally countless rats in this rat building. The paintings were painted according to the images of these rats, so that each of these rats has a different look and shape.
From sunrise to sunset, Jiang Gu was always painting, and Xiao Bingji also sent someone to guard the door and not allow anyone to come in and disturb him.
The reason why shadow murals are difficult is that, in addition to painting skills and spiritual power, the most important thing is that it tests the physical strength of the painter.
Most painters have strong spiritual power, but very poor physical fitness. It is physically difficult to complete a high-grade shadow mural.
Jiang Yan does not have such a problem. His physical strength is like a monster among painters.
The muscles in the hand holding the paintbrush are tense and the mind is highly concentrated. If you miss a single stroke, all your previous efforts may be wasted.
Even though these painting spirits were only medium-quality paintings, Jiang Yan's spiritual power was beginning to be a little overwhelming.
His pen is an old pen used by the ancestors of the Bi Tui Ge Chinese House. It is very heavy and there is no sense of stagnation after the spiritual energy is injected into it. However, the pain in his wrist is becoming more and more obvious.
If outsiders knew that a painter in the Xuanling Realm actually wanted to create a hundred spirits, they would definitely be shocked. In the past thousand years, only Lu Daoxuan has accomplished such a feat, painting a picture of a solitary mountain and a hundred spirits.
But now the screen walls made by Jiang Yan are even more difficult than the paintings.
Seeing that his hands were shaking, Jiang Yan's three Yang acupoints on his wrist and the spiritual energy in his three vaginas quickly flowed into his arms to offset the sour feeling.
When I first started cultivating the practice of opening hundreds of acupoints and merging with the physical body in Yique, I only completed one-third of the practice. Now, the three Yang points of the hand and the three ** of the hand are showing signs of fusion during this long painting process.
Jiang Yan gritted his teeth and insisted, firstly to be able to complete the shadow wall, and secondly to complete the fusion. Once the life points on his wrists are fused, his ability to make shadow murals will make great progress.
Finally, when the setting sun was about to collect its last rays of light, Jiang Yan completed the screen wall of the picture of a hundred rats on the East Mountain.
When Jiang Yan took back the bamboo suburbs, the shadow mural was completed, and a breath of aura covered the shadow wall, and the spiritual energy from dozens of miles around began to gather here quickly.
The existence of the screen wall will absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, so that the painting spirit can be kept in the wind and sun. This white jade is a rare and high-quality material, both for absorbing spiritual power and carrying the painting spirit.
Xiao Bingji was a little excited when he saw it. Jiang Yan's creation had far exceeded his expectations. Not only were there a hundred rats, but there were even a dozen more.
Xiao Bing had already stamped his seal, and then expressed his gratitude again and again.
But after sending Jiang Gu away, several servants brought pots of blood-red liquid and poured it directly on the screen wall, and the strong smell of blood spread throughout the courtyard.
The painting that originally looked lively and lively now looks very strange.
