Ouyang Xiu is worthy of the name of the Four Uniques, and all the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are refined, and they can't even be described simply with fine.

His performance in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting is much higher than that of ordinary literati.

Because he has integrated these four realms into the martial arts, and then into his heart.

Where Ouyang Xiu's brushstrokes sweep, the lines are thick or shallow, light or dark, constantly sketching on the drawing paper, and finally sketching an extremely perfect picture.

Bai Chen's temperament is like imprinted on the painting scroll, and under the embellishment of Ouyang Xiu's brushstrokes, he is constantly approaching perfection.

However, because the two of them painted, they were all displayed horizontally on the painting table, so the people under the ring could not see what the two of them were doing.

Finally, Ouyang Xiu's pen stroke was gentle, and the finishing touch was over.

Ouyang Xiu raised his head and spread out the scroll, extremely satisfied with his work.

How could there be a more perfect picture in this world?

Even if Ouyang Xiu's painting object was his opponent and his enemy, Ouyang Xiu was not affected by this, and still portrayed Bai Chen almost perfectly.

is even more otherworldly than Bai Chen in reality.

This may also be what Ouyang Xiu and most people think, Bai Chen on the picture scroll has an extraordinary temperament, heroic spirit, his eyes are as sharp as a blade, and the corners of his mouth have a shallow but confident smile.

There's even a little bit of grace......

Bai Chen finally stopped writing, but after he finished painting, the first thing he looked at was not his own work, but at Ouyang Xiu.

"Seniors are already well. ”

Ouyang Xiu nodded confidently, he was very satisfied with the topic of this competition.

The previous sense of oppression is gone. Maybe it's because of the paintings I made. Beyond the previous works.

It is also a work that is produced under pressure. Even Ouyang Xiu himself didn't expect it.

"Then how about we judge each other?" Bai Chen also looked at each other with confidence.

Ouyang Xiu nodded in agreement, and the two put the scrolls together, and the two reversed their positions.

Ouyang Xiu spread out Bai Chen's picture scroll, but for a moment, his expression froze.

Is this painting him?

On the scroll is an old man with a fairy wind and bones, holding a brush, his eyes are peaceful and wise, and he holds a beard with one hand.

However, the lines are not drawn with a brush. Ouyang Xiu felt like looking in a mirror, and every detail tended to be extreme.

Ouyang Xiu could even see from the portrait that he had a few eyebrows, and this novel style also made Ouyang Xiu breathtaking.

Perfect! Only this picture is truly perfect.

Bai Chen saw Ouyang Xiu's expression and was very satisfied with this result.

In fact, his paintings are only of a medium standard, and what Ouyang Xiu is really amazed about is not his painting skills, but his style.

Anyone who is exposed to the realistic sketch style for the first time will inevitably be amazed when they see such a work.

On the other hand, Ouyang Xiu's own paintings can be described as the ultimate in ink painting.

If realistic painting is about realistic painting, it is realistic painting. Then ink painting pays attention to the artistic conception.

Most of the ancient ink paintings are mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, because mountains, rivers and lakes can better reveal the expansiveness and artistic conception of heaven and earth. Or ethereal, or empty, or vast, or turbulent.

Comparatively speaking, there are many fewer ink paintings on human figures.

First of all, figure painting is more difficult, and ink painting still has many deficiencies in the portrayal of characters.

At the same time, if the painted figure does not have a special temperament, then the painting itself will also be affected and fall into inferiority.

Ouyang Xiu's grasp of figure painting can be said to be delicate to the extreme.

Bai Chen even doubted whether he had such an otherworldly temperament.

Ouyang Xiu raised his head with difficulty, looked at Bai Chen, his mouth trembled, and he didn't make a sound.

Bai Chen suddenly smiled slightly: "This kid is willing to bow down, can this painting be given to the kid?"

Ouyang Xiu's expression froze in astonishment, and he looked at Bai Chen in astonishment: "What are you doing......?"

"Because the seniors portrayed the kid so perfectly, the younger generations liked this painting very much. Bai Chen said with a smile.

Bai Chen even secretly guessed in his heart, is he really so handsome?

Ouyang Xiu shook his head with a wry smile: "Actually, what really feels gratified is that the old man is, with this painting skill and painting style, this game should be won by you." ”

"No, the kid's drawing skills are sketchy, and they can't compare to the magic skills of his predecessors. ”

"How about this game being counted as a draw?" Ouyang Xiu looked at Bai Chen with a red face.

"How embarrassing is this......

"The paintings are interchangeable. ”

At this time, the spectators under the ring stopped doing it and immediately started to coax.

They came this time to watch a wonderful showdown, not to listen to the old and young people praising each other.

Now that the works of the two have not been seen, the two of them are so self-conscious about the winners and losers, and they naturally don't want to.

"Wait, it's better for the two of you to take out their respective works and let everyone take a look, so that there can be a judge. ”

"Yes, both of them are celebrities in the world, and we both want to see the two world-beating skills. ”

Bai Chen glanced at everyone: "This is my competition with Ouyang's predecessors, what does it have to do with you, and why do I need you to judge?"

"Bai Chen, don't you dare to take out your painting for everyone to see?" someone coaxed, which immediately resonated with the onlookers, it was obvious that Bai Chen had just painted with ink charcoal, making everyone really wonder if Bai Chen could make any decent paintings.

"Shut up, Bai Chen's painting skills are hard to find in the world, do you need to wait for the rats to appreciate them?" Ouyang Xiu also stood up for Bai Chen.

"Senior, it's not that we question, it's actually Bai Chen's use of charcoal ash to paint, it's really incredible, everyone present is curious, so I ask the two of you to give everyone an answer. ”

Some people coax and some people explain calmly, and at the same time, this sentence also represents the hearts of most people.

Ouyang Xiu's painting skills are undoubted, he has been listed as one of the several painting saints in the world, especially his unique painting style, which integrates the painting skills of the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes, and has been recognized and praised by many famous artists.

But now that Bai Chen is painting with ink charcoal, he will actually be recognized by Ouyang Xiu, which makes everyone have to doubt the fairness of this competition.

"Old man Ouyang, you take out the painting and take a look, and the little old man also wants to see what the painting made of ink charcoal looks like. Bai Xiaosheng naturally wanted to regain face at this moment and coaxed everyone along.

"You shameful old thing. Ouyang Xiu saw that Bai Xiaosheng was actually persecuting himself with everyone, so he was angry.

Originally, when they competed with Bai Chen in the ring, the attitudes of both sides had already presented a friendly atmosphere.

The paintings made by Ouyang Xiu were also recognized by Bai Chen, and Ouyang Xiu naturally couldn't help but praise Bai Chen, and the result could be regarded as a great joy for everyone.

But if you really take it out, you will inevitably be compared by everyone.

Ouyang Xiu really didn't have the confidence to compare it with Bai Chen's portrait, because the painting made by Bai Chen was really excellent, and at the same time, it also gave people a sense of novelty.

So under all things being equal, he is sure to lose......

"Your subordinates are defeated, where is there room for you to speak here, if you are not convinced, you can compete in this ring again!" Bai Chen finally spoke, and his aggressive attitude as soon as he spoke out did not have the previous kind of humility and restraint.

For Bai Chen, there are only two kinds of people, one is pleasing to the eye, and the other is not pleasing to the eye.

Bai Xiaosheng obviously belongs to the category that is not pleasing to the eye, so his attitude towards him is even worse to the extreme.

This sentence was said by Bai Xiaosheng to Tang Xuantian before, but now it was given to him by Bai Chen.

One can imagine how ugly Bai Xiaosheng's face is, in comparison, everyone in the Tang Sect under the ring is much happier.

Bai Xiaosheng is invincible, and this time it is also planted in Bai Chen's hands.

"Old man Ouyang, don't forget your identity, you are a strange man under the command of King Liao, not a member of the imperial court!" Bai Xiaosheng gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.

Ouyang Xiu was angry: "Okay...... If you want to see it, I'll show you!"

Ouyang Xiu shook the painting that had been rolled up lightly and completely spread it out in front of everyone's eyes.

Whoop -

There was another exclamation, and everyone's eyes straightened.

For everyone present, this painting was like a ghostly workmanship, imprinting Ouyang Xiu's appearance and temperament perfectly on this painting.

This is also the charm of realistic sketching, where details are everything, even a wrinkle is not missed.

People can't even tell whether a person is a painting or a painting is a person, so it is a painter's lifelong pursuit.

Of course, the shock of the crowd is more due to the novelty.

If everyone in this world can sketch paintings, then Bai Chen's paintings can only be the end of the bad street.

But it is precisely because it is unique, and because it is unheard of, that it can cause such an effect.

Everyone's eyes looked at Bai Chen again, but Bai Chen still went his own way: "This painting was given to me by Ouyang seniors, so I don't have to worry about whether to display it or not, Ouyang seniors' painting skills are hard to find in the world, and what he painted for me is far better than mine, so I lost this game." ”

Everyone felt that Bai Chen was protecting Ouyang Xiu.

Ouyang Xiu's painting skills are naturally true, but no one thinks that Ouyang Xiu's paintings can be better than Bai Chen's.

This is also a preconceived psychology, Bai Chen's concession like this makes everyone feel that Bai Chen's heart is broad-minded.

As for whether Bai Chen is on display or not, it doesn't make much sense, because most people are only interested in Bai Chen's paintings, and have little interest in Ouyang Xiu's paintings.

Ouyang Xiu put away the scroll, hugged his fists with Bai Chen again and said goodbye, and whispered before leaving: "Be more careful." ”

Ouyang Xiu was quite satisfied with such a result, after all, nominally he still won, although everyone may not think so, but his result is better than Bai Xiaosheng, I don't know how many times better.

After the comparison, Ouyang Xiu's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he turned a blind eye to Bai Xiaosheng who was staring at him.

At the same time, Ouyang Xiu didn't expect that because of this competition, it would be regarded as a classic by readers, and at the same time, it would be praised as a good story.

Bai Chen took a deep breath and looked at Wukui and Liu Sheng under the ring.

"The competition of the text has passed, now it's time for a competition, right?" (to be continued......)
