Chapter 116 The Five Techniques of Control(1/2)
Semi-saint literary world.
The fourth level is calligraphy.
Ask all students to write an article "Preface to the Lanting Collection".
"Preface to the Lanting Collection" is the work of the saint of calligraphy Wang Xizhi. Scholars who practice calligraphy will copy Wang Xizhi's fonts.
As long as the handwriting is well written, it should not look too sloppy or even be impressed, it can basically be passed.
But even so, there are still a few juren who have been eliminated, which is incredible.
A great Confucian and Taoist scholar, he couldn't even write well. He was simply too messy, and even Du Ning found it unbelievable.
The fifth level is to test the painting and clever ink.
Draw on a piece of white paper that is two meters long and five feet wide.
It is required to complete the work within one hour.
"That long and wide white paper can't be finished even if it's a day and a night!"
"As for offending, I began to wonder if the half-saint was deliberately making things difficult for us."
"What should I do!"
Many students looked at the white paper in front of them and felt that no matter how they painted it, they would never be able to complete such a tricky work.
Time is limited, and some people have begun to draw on the white paper. After a while of operation, they may really plan to draw the entire white paper.
Du Ning pondered on the spot, and he believed that the so-called "Quick" ink lies in the word "Quick".
But what is "coin"?
Just as Du Ning was thinking, Wu Xiangwen next to him sneered and said, "Young Master Du, everyone has started writing, but you are still dazed here. Are you not sure that you can complete it within the prescribed time?"
Ge Yuan added: "You don't know how to paint, right?"
"Ha ha……"
The people from Xianwen Club laughed out loud.
Du Ning habitually ignored them, stretched her waist, lay on the ground and closed her eyes.
It seems to be sleeping.
"You are still pretending!" Wu Xiangwen snorted coldly.
Du Ning still ignored it.
The students began to paint one after another, but Du Ning lay on the ground and rested.
Half an hour passed.
Seeing that Du Ning was still resting, Wu Xiangwen and Ge Yuan burst into laughter.
Wu Xiangwen painted a bridge, halfway through it.
Ge Yuan painted a tree, and it was half done.
On the other hand, Du Ning still didn't start painting.
Sun Zhentian reminded: "Brother Du, stop sleeping. If you don't paint, you will be eliminated."
"yawn……"
Du Ning turned around and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's still early."
"You...hey..." Sun Zhentian had nothing to say.
Wu Xiangwen and Ge Yuan were full of sarcasm, believing that Du Ning was finished, and even if Du Ning started painting now, it would be impossible to complete this painting.
There are fifteen minutes left.
Du Ning opened her eyes, stood up and stretched, "I took a nap and felt comfortable."
"Young Master Du, time is coming soon, you have lost."
Wu Xiangwen's mouth raised slightly and cast a contemptuous look at Du Ning.
Ge Yuan pretended to be regretful and said, "I didn't expect that the number one talented man in Suzhou would stop at the fifth level. It's such a pity."
Most people showed sympathy to Du Ning, believing that Du Ning could not complete a painting in such a short time.
Duning will not be eliminated.
"Who said I'll stop here?"
Du Ning looked at Ge Yuan and said, "Brother Ge, it seems that you are not only stupid, but also have no memory. Do you want to slap yourself in the face again?"
"Haha...what did you say? From what you mean, can you finish a painting in the rest of the time?"
Ge Yuan laughed wildly when he heard this. This time he looked down on Du Ning, but he thought it was too ridiculous. It was absolutely impossible for ordinary people to complete a painting in such a short time, even a Grand Secretary could not.
"Of course." Du Ning nodded slightly.
"Impossible, you absolutely can't do it." Ge Yuan looked disbelieving.
"You will believe it." Du Ning was very confident.
"The world is so funny!"
Wu Xiangwen showed contempt and said slowly: "Then please show us how you can complete this impossible painting in such a short time."
"Then you're going to open your eyes."
Du Ning started writing.
Du Ning simply drew a fishing rod on the left, then waved it up and down with a brush, forming a large curve of wavy lines as the fishing line, and immediately drew it from the left to the right.
Wu Xiangwen was about to laugh, but after seeing this scene, the smile on his face stiffened, and then it seemed as if he understood something, and it was hard to look at it in an instant.
Du Ning drew a fish at the end of the "fishing line", outlined the water surface pattern in the middle of the painting, and titled "Fishing Rod Fishing Picture".
A painting that could not be completed in everyone's eyes was completed very easily by Du Ning.
"It's OK? Are you wrong?"
"This painting is in line with the title of the word "Qiao". It is wonderful to finish the long and wide white paper!"
"Young Master Du is really a strange man!"
"I can actually think of using this method to draw a painting, I admire you!"
Many people applauded.
Ge Yuan's face turned pale and could not say a word.
Du Ning looked at Ge Yuan, revealing a look that was like a clown jumping.
"Do you still want to keep barking?" Du Ning asked with a smile.
"Bang!"
Ge Yuan slapped himself in public, both ashamed and angry.
Ge Yuan was willing to beat this slap, blamed himself for being too talkative, and was embarrassed and humiliated.
People from Xianwen Society dare not say a word.
Du Ning continued to selectively ignore them, as if what had happened just now had never happened.
Someone said, "You shouldn't compare with Du Ning. Even if the people from your Xianwen Society are combined, they will not be Du Ning's opponent. He is a real genius, and he is the real standout."
Many people nodded gently and agreed with this sentence.
The people from the Xianwen Club were furious, and Wu Xiangwen and Ge Yuan were even more angry.
To make such a metaphor between them, Xianwenshe and Du Ning, is a great humiliation to Xianwenshe.
"Rareless!" Many people shouted loudly.
The man hurriedly shut his mouth and ignored them selectively by imitating Du Ning's appearance.
The students of Xianwen Society were suddenly stunned.
At the end of the fifth level, some students were eliminated because they did not finish painting.
There are about 2,000 remaining juren students.
The sixth level test is the "Five Imperials".
The Five Imperials are one of the six arts of a gentleman, that is, the technology of driving a carriage and a chariot.
The song and the phoenix are chanting, the song is chasing the water, the song is passing by the king's face, the dance is dancing on the street, and the bird is chasing the left, and the five emperors are collectively called the Five Emperors.
Du Ning flashed white light around him, and then he heard a series of sings of war horses.
When the light was vast and converging, Du Ning was already on the chariot, equipped with bows and arrows, and three white horses were in front of him.
Du Ning found that the same was true for the others, and they all had their own chariots.
Wu Xiangwen said to Ge Yuan: "Brother Ge, this is an opportunity. We can use this level to eliminate Du Ning, but we must not miss it."
Ge Yuan said: "I understand what you mean is to destroy Du Ning's chariot, or influence his five imperial achievements to prevent him from passing the exam, so that Du Ning can stop here."
"Brother Ge is wise." Wu nodded.
Ge Yuan said: "Du Ning is very brave. Even if several people rushed forward, they would not be their opponents. Can we do it?"
Wu Xiangwen said contemptuously: "The heroes cannot stand many people. As long as all the students of our Xianwen Society attack Du Ning, no matter how powerful Du Ning is, he will not be a rival to so many of us. Don't forget the task assigned to us by the Xianwang. As long as this matter is done, you can follow the Xianwang to do something in the future."
"Okay, let's give it a try."
Ge Yuan made a decision to eliminate Du Ning no matter what.
