For this appreciation meeting, Jiang Chan prepared a total of four paintings. The third painting is somewhat similar to the first one. Jiang Chan copied and imitated the paintings in the Wenfu Spirit Control Artifact "Wonderful Views of a Hundred Worlds".
"The third picture, the picture of the Toad Immortal!"
When the painting was first revealed, an old man with thin hair sat barefoot on a big rock to rest, with a huge toad lying on his back.
This painting has a unique shape and layout, outstanding character, thick brushwork, appropriate thickness of hooks, ups and downs, and exquisite rendering.
The use of light colors to blend out the shadows and concavities in the painting gives it a rich three-dimensional effect. It can be said that the brushwork is unique and multifaceted.
Jiang Yan imitated the "Splash-Ink Immortal Picture" and painted this "Toad Immortal Picture". The complete "Splash-Ink Immortal Picture" is a divine painting, but half of it is incomplete and is of divine quality. In addition to the painting, Jiang Chan managed to fake the real thing.
Effect.
I thought this painting would sell for as high a price as the first one, but I didn't expect that Lu Tanwei would be the first to take the auction.
"Jiang Yan, you are so brave," Lu Tan slightly shouted angrily.
"Mr. Lu, what are you..."
Lu Tanwei's reaction made Jiang Yan feel a little strange.
"I have long heard people in the house say that someone is painting "Wonderful Wonders of a Hundred Worlds" in full color. This "Toad Immortal Picture" is a painting in the wonders. Even if you are short of money, how dare you take it out and sell it!"
"Mr. Lu, the real "Splash-Ink Immortal Picture" has been completed in full color and is now enshrined in Bi Tui Pavilion. This one is just a copy by me."
"Even this won't work, put it away quickly"
Seeing Lu Tanwei wink at him crazily, Jiang Yan was a little puzzled, but he still wanted to roll up the painting and put it away.
"Wait a minute..."
Just when Jiang Chan's hand was about to touch the Taoist scroll, an old man in Taoist robes flashed over and grabbed Jiang Chan's wrist with his clear palm.
"The old Taoist is looking at Zuo Quan at the Pheasant Gate. Can the old Taoist take a closer look at this painting?"
This old man has a certain charm of immortality, but at this moment, although his words are gentle, he cannot refuse.
Even though he held back his words, Jiang Yan could still feel how scary this old man was.
Before Jiang Yan could agree, Peng Yi had already taken the lead to step forward.
"Old Taoist, let go of the young master"
Peng Li rose up like a wild lion, and smashed down his fists with vast spiritual power. A layer of black and white gossip suddenly appeared on the back of his left body, and the yin and yang fish released Peng Li's strength in the process of circulation.
"General Peng, don't worry, why don't you listen to me carefully?"
"Master Jiang, our Tianxin Mansion has trained countless strong men for thousands of years, but there are only a handful of people who can bear the word legend, and this Toad Immortal is the top one among them. He is also the first generation man.
Brother of the Lord.
The Taoist priests of Tianxin Mansion have sought immortality and practiced throughout their lives. Even the current Master Zhang Lingsu is only the closest thing to an immortal in the Yuling Continent, and Immortal Toad is the only person recorded to have truly become an immortal.
However, the Toad Immortal spent most of his time visiting immortals and rarely stayed in Xuanpu Mountain. The only portrait he had was burned in a fire many years ago.
When Lao Dao was young, he saw this painting exactly like yours, but Lao Dao didn't have Painter Jiang's skillful brushwork and couldn't draw it.
The old Taoist wanted to rely on his old age to sell this painting, so he asked Painter Jiang to make it happen and give it to me, Tianxin Mansion. The old Taoist still has some scattered money."
After Zuo Quan's eyes rested on the painting, he could no longer look away.
In full view of everyone, the frowning Lu Tanwei pulled Jiang Gu away, and then placed a layer of water-light spiritual power outside his body to isolate everyone.
"If you take out this painting, do you know how much trouble you will get into?" Lu Tanwei said in a deep voice.
"What trouble can this cause? Isn't the "Thousand-headed and Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva Statue" just now fine?"
"This is different. The Bodhisattva image is a figment based on Buddhist scriptures and does not really exist. However, this toad immortal does exist, and he is also a terrifying and powerful man who has truly become an immortal and entered the Tao.
Don’t you have some special feelings when you were copying this Toad Immortal?”
When Lu Tanwei asked, Jiang Yan really remembered something strange.
"When I was painting, I always felt that there was a pair of eyes behind me watching my every move. And after I finished painting, there was a vague aura in the painting. I didn't know what it was."
"Generally, if you draw portraits of people who are powerful at controlling spirits, you will establish a very mysterious connection between the two. There was once a painter who was killed by the person in the painting while doing a figure painting.
Fortunately, the Toad Immortal has been dead for who knows how many years, but if your painting reaches a certain level, it will even connect to the unknown.
This Zuo Quan is the second person from Pheasant Gate, do you really think he bought this painting just to remember it?"
"What else can I do? It's just a painting."
Jiang Yan still has little understanding of taboo portraits.
"It's lucky that you didn't have any accidents while painting. This painting of Toad Immortal contains the spirit of Toad Immortal.
I know a secret method from the gods of Tianxin Mansion that can draw out this ray of energy and attach it to the body, temporarily borrowing the power of the Toad Immortal.
The era where Toad Immortal lived was too long ago, and Xiaoyao Gong was one of the few people who had seen him with his own eyes.
When Xiaoyao Gong was still alive, people from Tianxin Mansion came to his door countless times, wanting to exchange a piece of supreme treasure for the "Splash-Ink Immortal" picture in "Wonder of a Hundred Worlds". However, the relationship between the two mansions was tense at that time, and Xiaoyao Gong was raped several times.
reject."
The painter can control the painting spirit, but Jiang Yan did not expect that the Taoist priests in Tianxin Mansion could also use secret methods to guide the popularity of the painting.
"Then this painting..."
Now it seems that this painting has become a hot potato, and Jiang Yan is not sure how to deal with it.
"Master Daxuan is the master of Pheasant Gate Temple. If you take away Zuo Quan's nose, you will definitely not let it go.
The only good thing is that it's just a wonderful painting, you might as well give it a serious killing."
"Would this offend them?" Jiang Yan was worried.
"It doesn't matter if you offend, you can't take advantage of this awesome nose in vain. Don't worry, I will support you."
Zuo Quan was also a little worried. Jiang Yan must not have a deep understanding of this kind of figure painting, otherwise how could he sell it, but Lu Tanwei knew it very well.
The painting that could have been easily won is now a little more uncertain, but no matter what, he is bound to win.
"Master Zuo has kept you waiting for a long time," Jiang Yan said.
"It doesn't matter, the painter Jiang is willing to part with this painting for how much it costs."
"Starting from 100,000 gold"
Zuo Quan breathed a sigh of relief, one hundred thousand gold was a good deal.
Jiang Qian also wanted Lu Tanwei to copy what he had just done and continue to increase the price. He could give the painting to him, but Zuo Quan would have to get a mouthful of old blood.
But before he could speak, someone in the crowd at Xiaoxiang Pavilion had already made a bid.
"One hundred and fifty thousand"
From one hundred thousand gold to one hundred and fifty thousand, Zuo Quan, a self-proclaimed Taoist, still had gloomy eyes.
The Toad Immortal Picture is of no use to anyone except the people in Tianxin Mansion, so bidding like this is a deliberate attempt to challenge him.
