Chapter 9883 Screen Painting
Xuyu Palace.
The private room in the west building.
“It’s the West Tower again.”
Ouyang Heng muttered in a low voice, helplessly, and followed the others into the box.
Although he ate some porridge today, his gastrointestinal tract felt better.
But even so, the instinctive feeling of nausea and vomiting towards big fish and meat has not completely dissipated.
It would take at least three or four days for him to catch his breath.
“The environment is nice and tasteful.”
Luo Fengtang stood beside Ouyang Heng and looked at the layout of the box.
There is an eight-sided screen in this box.
The paintings on the screen are not of pretty women, nor of landscapes, insects, and birds, but of many soldiers fighting each other, with one prominent figure, an iron horse and a powerful man.
To those literati, this kind of screen painting is rude and insulting to elegance.
But for soldiers like Luo Fengtang, who fought on the battlefield and licked blood from their swords, this kind of screen painting was quite tasteful and suited his taste.
“These are all works by famous masters, and one of them is the handwriting of Master Tang Yu.”
Feng Bei put his hands in his sleeves, with a smile on his face.
"Master Tang Yu? This is strange."
Speaking of other calligraphy and painting masters, Luo Fengtang may not have much impression, but Master Tang Yu is an exception.
This is not only because Yang Ruoqing admires Master Tang Yu, but also because her son Luo Xingchen also appreciates Master Tang Yu's paintings.
"Master Tang Yu designed a new village last year for Xian Yuzhong, the owner of Peacock Villa. On his way back to Jiangnan, he happened to pass through Zhuque County. I invited him as a guest for three days, and he left this painting with his pen. .”
Feng Bei began to introduce the ins and outs of this painting.
Luo Fengtang looked at the painting in front of him, silently lost in thought.
In the middle of this scroll is a general.
The general on the battlefield was wearing a broken and blood-stained armor. He was holding a spear in one hand, using the spear as a crutch to hold himself up, while in the other hand he was holding a spear. Embroidered purse with broken red thread.
Opposite the general is a group of enemy troops with different faces and expressions. They are either fearful, violent, angry, or timid...
They faced only the general.
"This is an amulet sewn for him by his family. Many people in Daqi have this habit of serving as soldiers."
Luo Fengtang withdrew his gaze and said softly.
"Master Tang Yu said that this painting was given to a battle-hardened general. He did not say who this person was."
Feng Beidao.
"This is for the commander-in-chief of the north, Yue Leiting. This battle is the battle that made Yue Leiting famous..."
Luo Fengtang said softly.
"In the Battle of Northern Xinjiang, I know that in this battle, a small number defeated a large number, forcing the Liao Kingdom to sign a peace treaty with Da Qi. From this, Marshal Yue could become Marshal Yue later."
Feng Bei’s eyes lit up and he said.
Luo Fengtang glanced at Feng Bei, with a hint of meaning in his eyes, but then disappeared.
"Sect Master Feng, keep this painting well. I will come back to see it when I have the opportunity in the future."
Luo Fengtang waved his sleeves and settled down in his seat.
Feng Bei originally wanted to find a reason to transfer this painting to Luo Fengtang, but now that he heard this, he couldn't find a reason for it.
“Let’s talk about the underground river. When you went down there, what was the scene like when you were besieged by water monsters?”
Luo Fengtang asked about the relevant details.
This matter is also related to his own safety. "At that time, three of our disciples went into the water together. They estimated that they would turn back at about the same time."
"Before, it was going smoothly, but they were turning back. On the way, I was attacked by more than a dozen adult water monsters.”
"Monsters like the water demon are not very strong when ashore, but in the water, their strength is amazing. The three disciples are all elites of the sect. After a fight, only one disciple came back alive, still with scars. Tired, I am still recovering from my injuries.”
Feng Bei breathed out.
As soon as he mentioned the water monster attacking people, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
"How are the three disciples' underwater skills?"
Luo Fengtang said lightly.
Even if he knew that this was Feng Bei's sad thing, he still had to ask thoroughly.
“They are very good at underwater kung fu. We often swam in the river before, and they are very strong in martial arts. If the three of us work together, I am no match for them. They can handle me one on one underwater. .”
Feng Bei said sincerely.
“I understand, let’s set off tomorrow.”
Luo Fengtang said.
……
Early morning on the second day.
A group of people entered the mountain and came to the base built by Xuyu Palace in the mountain.
The larger sects in Sixiang City have all found a place in the mountains to build some buildings as a hiding place.
This is a habit left over from the previous dynasty when the world was in chaos. They were all worried that one day the sect would be besieged and destroyed.
Separate some people to hide in the mountains. Even if the sect encounters a crisis locally, they can preserve the fire and prevent the sect from being completely wiped out.
Many sects used to save fire in this way, and later found opportunities to make a comeback.
The mountains near Sixiang City are large enough to accommodate countless bases.
In fact, the so-called hidden place, except for a few large sects that can achieve a certain degree of concealment, other sects cannot be completely concealed at all.
“The feng shui here is very good.”
Mickey observed the nearby environment and couldn’t help but sigh.
She has learned some Feng Shui from Zi Yan, and she can easily spot this obvious Feng Shui treasure.
"My father found someone to choose these. Later, he regretted it."
Feng Bei touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed.
"What are you regretting? Such a good place..."
Before Mi Qi finished speaking, she suddenly understood why Feng Bei's father, Feng Buping, regretted it.
The place he chose should be a hidden place.
And how can a place like this, where a discerning person knows good Feng Shui at a glance, be considered a hidden place?
“My father was a martial arts master at that time, and he could no longer hear other people’s opinions. When he came to his senses, the building was half-finished, and there was no turning back. If he had to start all over again, Xuyu Palace would If we don’t have the financial resources, we have to bite the bullet and continue building.”
“After that incident, my father restrained his slightly arrogant mentality and became much more cautious later on.”
This is all the “dark history” of Feng Buping’s past. Feng Bei can do nothing about it. Speaking it out without hesitation also meant that he had no reservations.
He placed his hope on Luo Fengtang and others. Other conditions can be negotiated as long as they are not too excessive.
"Go directly to that dark cave."
Luo Fengtang said.
Originally Feng Bei wanted to take everyone to rest for a while, but since Luo Fengtang was in a hurry, he did not suggest taking a rest.
Most of the buildings in the base are made of local wood. Many trees are planted nearby, which just plays a concealing role in the base. Of course, this is just a comfort to my heart. I want to know Already known.
