In Su Pingan's mouth, this already feels like a very old name. Thinking back carefully, oh, it happened last year. It was a dude that Su Pingan met in the Red Music Hall when he was in Daming Mansion.
Although they call each other "broken boat", the guy is actually called "washing copper boat".
There are three people in the Xi family. The third one washes copper boats, which Su Pingan stepped on in the Red Music Hall; the second one washes the silver pavilion, which Su Pingan stepped on when he was in the Wen Palace; the eldest brother seems to be called the Xijin Tower.
At that time, he heard the introduction from Bai Hao and others. It was said that Xijinlou was the proud son of the Xi family. He was proficient in the four arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He was a rare Confucian and Taoist genius. It was precisely because of his genius that the Xi family
Regardless of spending a lot of money, Xijinlou was sent to the Shendu Literary Academy to allow him to study in the academy.
It is said that this Jin Xilou has a very demonic appearance and is more 'beautiful' than many women, so this Jin Xilou was very famous in Daming Mansion.
Su Ping'an also didn't expect that he would suddenly hear the name Xijin Building here now.
"Could this be the gold-washing building of the big brother who washed broken ships?"
Su Ping'an was startled by this.
Bai Hao pondered for a moment, "Didn't the person who sent the news just say what he said at the beginning, that she was a very beautiful woman? I have seen this guy from Xijinlou before, but he looks like a girl... No
, even more girly than many girls, so I think the gold laundering building this guy is talking about must be him!"
Long Xuan heard their conversation nearby and was curious for a moment. Then he asked, and Bai Hao immediately told how Su Ping'an had a grudge against the "Xi Po Chuan" when they were in Daming Mansion.
From the competition in the Red Music Hall to slapping Tongzhou in the face, to Su Ping'an challenging Wen Gong, and crushing Xiyin Pavilion in the Painting Road... one by one, Bai Hao is like telling a storybook.
His face was full of excitement, saliva was flying everywhere, and Luo Feng, who had also experienced this, his eyes widened on the spot.
Are we experiencing the same thing?!
Why is it that the experience in my impression is completely different from what this guy said? What this guy told is more storybook than storybook!
In the end, he came to a conclusion: Bai Hao is too talented to be a storyteller!
Luo Fengdu was like this, let alone Long Xuan's reaction. Hearing Bai Hao's tongue-tied narration, his eyes widened throughout the whole process, and he kept making shocking remarks like 'f*ck'.
After the story was over, all he could say was 'f*ck'.
"Ping'an is really so awesome that one person can challenge the entire Wen Palace?"
Long Xuan was shocked, and then turned back to look at Su Pingan in surprise.
Su Ping'an happened to show a hint of indifference at this time, waved his hand pretending to be calm and said: "Hey, it's not as exaggerated as Bai Hao said. He defeated Wen Gong with three strikes, five divided by two, in fact.
I still put some effort into it, and I even had to drink a bowl of chicken soup to make up for it!"
"..." Long Xuan.
"..." Bai Hao.
"..." Luo Feng.
One person was shocked, two people were confused.
Bai Hao and Luo Feng couldn't help but curse.
Damn, you have to have this kind of thing to install the fork. I accidentally let him install it. I’m so sorry!
…
While the three of them were chatting, news soon came from the front.
"The speed drawing competition is over, and the verdict is about to be announced..."
A voice came out from the front of the crowd, and the whole crowd immediately started to boil.
However, the news that was spread from person to person seemed to be very slow here. The fifth sentence had already started to be transmitted at the front, and the first sentence was only reached at the end of the team and reached the ears of Su Pingan and others.
This made Su Ping'an feel like there was a network delay.
"The competition is over?!"
Long Xuan and the others didn't think too much. As soon as they heard that the results of the quick drawing were coming out, they immediately stood up from the recliner.
Then I heard the second piece of news coming from the front.
"The speed drawing competition is over, and both sides have begun to appraise paintings. In order to show fairness, the Academy of Arts invited the Haotian Cauldron, a painting appraisal treasure..."
…
"Haotian Cauldron? What is this?"
Su Ping'an was not familiar with anything in the liberal arts academy, so when he heard something with such a powerful name as the 'Haotian Cauldron', he immediately asked Long Xuan about it.
When Long Xuan saw that there was something Su Ping'an didn't know, he immediately felt proud and began to introduce it as the host.
It turns out that the Haotian Cauldron is a cultural treasure of the Wen Academy. Although it is not as good as the quasi-sacred artifact 'Hua Hai' of the Wen Palace, it is still a rare Wenwang-level cultural treasure.
The Haotian Cauldron is huge, as tall as a person, with three legs and two ears. The whole body is made of gold crystal meteorite iron. After it is formed, it has a ray of innate Taoist charm, which is very extraordinary. It is dark copper in color as a whole and weighs about
There are millions of kilograms, which cannot be controlled except by those who shed blood and recognize their master.
It was also forged by the first dean after the Confucian sage of the Academy of Arts, together with the eighteen Wen kings and Wen Zong great Confucians. It is of extraordinary significance. Therefore, although it is not a sacred or quasi-sacred vessel, it is already a cultural artifact of King Wen.
The limit of treasure.
It is precisely because the Haotian Cauldron is so extraordinary that, in addition to being able to suppress the national destiny as a Wenwang Wenbao, it also possesses an extraordinary ability, which is to appraise paintings.
The Haotian Cauldron is also engraved with eighteen mountain and river inscriptions, which were condensed by the own essence, blood and will of the eighteen King Wen and Wenzong scholars when they trained the Haotian Cauldron. Therefore, this inscription also contains a trace of their spirit.
Very pure spiritual consciousness.
As long as a painting is placed on the cauldron, the eighteen inscriptions on the Haotian Cauldron will automatically light up, as if the eighteen sages King Wen and Confucian Wen Zong are appraising the paintings.
After passing the painting appraisal, the eighteen inscriptions will then start to make a choice. If the painting is considered good, the inscription will light up green to express approval. If it does not light up, it means that the painting is not good.
Extremely bad, it is said that the tripod will light up with a red light and then be burned on the spot.
In short, this cauldron can be said to have great origins, extraordinary effects, and a very good temper.
"The Haotian Cauldron is of great significance, so now only the dean of the Academy of Arts can control it with blood, and it will be passed down from generation to generation as a cultural treasure of the town. In the past, the Haotian Cauldron was not needed at all to appraise paintings, but this time it is also to show fairness.
Only the Academy of Literature invited the Haotian Cauldron out..."
After Long Xuan's words, Su Ping'an finally understood the origin of the Haotian Cauldron, and then he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It is indeed a liberal arts academy, and its foundation is indeed rich. Not only does it have the Confucian sage's measuring pen, but also Hao
Such a good thing as Tianding is really awesome!
But then Su Pingan thought of another question and asked: "Then since this Haotian Cauldron was built by the Academy of Literature, and the eighteen inscriptions on it were condensed with the hard work and will of the sages of the Academy of Arts, how can you
How can we ensure that we are impartial if we know how to use it to identify paintings?”
When Long Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but curled his lips towards Su Ping'an and said: "The Academy of Arts has held many painting competitions in the past, and Haotian Cauldron was the judge every time, and there has never been any accident.
The result of the painting has been approved by everyone. Why do you think so?"
Su Pingan asked again: "Then I would like to ask, the last Four Kingdoms Competition seemed to have been held in our Daxuan competition. Was the Haotian Cauldron also used in that painting appraisal competition?"
"certainly!"
"The result is that we won, right?"
"nature!"
"Counting up all the times, in all the four-nation competitions, as long as they are in the painting competitions in our Daxuan Kingdom, have you won them all? But as long as you don't use the Haotian Cauldron to appraise paintings, have you won less?
Too much?"
Hearing this, Long Xuan thought about it carefully with a deep eyebrow, and found that it seemed to be the case. He couldn't help frowning and said: "What's the point? It can only be said that every time we compete in the general election, our painting and literary skills are better
Being at home, my performance is more stable."
When Su Ping'an heard this, he had some speculation in his heart, and then he couldn't help but smile and said: "Then have you ever thought about another possibility, that the will of the sages in the Haotian Cauldron is also spiritual?
, in the competitions between students on weekdays, they are all from Daxuan Kingdom. No matter they win or lose, they are all from Daxuan Kingdom, so they must be impartial. But the Four Kingdoms Competition is related to the national reputation. Do you think if the sages in the cauldron are the same?
If it were you, would you watch your country lose in such a big competition?"
"..."
Originally, Long Xuan firmly believed in the reputation of Haotian Cauldron, but after hearing Su Pingan's words, he slowly opened his mouth, and suddenly felt a little shaken in his heart.
He carefully recalled the situation of the Four Kingdoms Competition recorded in the history of training. It seemed that it was true that as long as the host was in Daxuan Kingdom, he had never lost in the Painting Road Competition, not even taking second place.
Pass.
However, as soon as it left Daxuan Kingdom and was held in other places, Daxuan Kingdom's painting competitions never came first.
It would be too outrageous to say that it was a coincidence once or twice, but it is the same every time.
"Could it be that...the sages in Haotian Cauldron are really helping Daxuan Kingdom to cheat?!"
Long Xuan was shocked inside.
But there seems to be no way to confirm this issue.
You can't question the Haotian Cauldron, it won't be able to answer you.
Besides, there seems to be no way to uncover this kind of thing. After all, it is beneficial to Daxuan Kingdom. As for the truth, does it matter?
Just as Long Xuan was thinking about this matter, the news was spreading faster and faster.
"Haotian Cauldron has been invited out, and the painting appraisal will begin soon..."
"The first thing I appreciate is Da Zhanguo's quick painting. Quick painting depends on the painter's basic skills and strength. The other person's quick painting is a figure painting, and the object is the opponent Xijinlou..."
"Oh my God, there's something special about this guy. Not only are his looks, movements, and clothes very similar, but he even has his expression and some subtle details drawn. This old man is pretty awesome..."
There had been rumors before about the speed painting cultivator of Da Zhan Kingdom, who was said to be a painter in his thirties. He was originally a young man, but when it came to the mouths of the onlookers like Da Xuan Guo, he was directly
He became an 'old man'. If the painter from Da Zhan heard this, he doesn't know if he would faint in tears.
Well, when it comes to jointly attacking foreign enemies, the people of Daxuan Kingdom have really united themselves, worked together, and spared no effort.
Seeing this, Su Pingan silently gave them a thumbs up: Like!
