Chapter 756 Calligraphy and Painting
"I've met Uncle Shi."
Wu Chong stood up. If he wanted to enter the academy to study, he had to get this person's nod.
It's a pity that he didn't wake up his memory in the early years. Otherwise, if the old man was still alive, this matter would be easier to do. Now that the person is gone, it's hard to say whether the other party is willing to help.
"Is the old guy really gone?"
After Su Tianzheng sat down, he opened the letter Wu Chong sent him and began to read it.
After a while, Su Tianzheng put down the letter, a flash of memory flashed in his eyes.
"It's a man-made disaster."
Su Tianzheng sighed, then glanced at Wu Chong who was standing next to him, and gave him a reminder.
"It's okay to enroll in school, but you can't be vain. If I find out, you'll seek immortality."
“Students understand.”
Wu Chong immediately realized that the old man must have written a lot about him in the letter. Even the ridiculous things he did in the past were clearly stated. From this, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is really good.
After Su Tianzheng gave a brief explanation, he stood up and left.
As a scholar from Yizhou, it was a great honor to come here specifically to see Wu Chong.
With the approval of Xuedao, there will be no obstacles to enrolling in the academy. Two days later, Wu Chong successfully entered Qingshan Academy and became a scholar.
Half a month passed by.
In the dormitory, Wu Chong lit the oil lamp and looked through the books in the academy.
"There is no record of any extraordinary power."
In the past half month, Wu Chong browsed through most of the academy's collection of books. With his reading speed, he easily digested the contents and sifted through them layer by layer to extract the information he wanted.
"How can delusion take root in a world like this? And how does the world master of this world survive?"
Wu Chong now has many questions in his head, but he has no answers.
But one thing he was sure of.
There must be something extraordinary in this world, but it is hidden too deeply.
Unlike the Shimo World he was in before, the extraordinary power of Shimo World was obvious. Whether it was martial arts or the immortal way he later created, it was no secret in the eyes of the creatures in that world.
But this world is different. Extraordinary power is like a hidden layer that ordinary people cannot access at all.
It has been passed down for hundreds of years, but there is no relevant information recorded, and most of what is there exists in the form of scripts. His previous behavior of seeking immortality and asking questions was influenced by those scripts. However, after waking up, Wu Chong had already studied those scripts. The stories in them were all artificially fabricated, and there was no possibility of implementation.
A power that cannot even be imitated by delusion is nothing if not fake.
"Reading again?"
A girl in gorgeous clothes came over and sat down in front of Wu Chong.
The girl was disguised as a man. The stupid boy in the academy couldn't tell, but he could tell at a glance.
Following the girl was her follower Dai Yong, a practicing practitioner. Wu Chong tested it once and found that what the other party mastered was not any extraordinary power, but just the most common killing skills. The most common people in this world could master this kind of power.
For Wu Chong, he knew this skill at a glance.
Now he has no idea how many years he has lived. His long life has allowed him to master many abilities that ordinary people would take a lifetime to master.
Judging from Dai Yong's existence, the girl's identity should not be simple.
A person who can walk freely in an academy where only men can study, and is equipped with such a guard beside her, can see how extraordinary she is.
"Don't you feel bored reading these books every day?"
Ling Zhujun couldn't help but said.
She was attracted to Wu Chong from the first day he entered the academy.
Strangely enough, Wu Chong looked very ordinary, and he did not have a prominent background, let alone an amazing appearance. It’s just a public face that no one will take a second look at if you throw it into a crowd. But it was such a popular face that attracted her at the first sight after contact. As for the reason, she herself did not know.
It is precisely because of this that she often appears next to Wu Chong, trying to figure out Wu Chong's secrets.
"Luck."
Wu Chong's eyes fell on the girl.
It was immediately obvious that she was different from the others.
From the perspective of the world master, the young girl Ling Zhujun is the son of destiny, a person enveloped by fate. This kind of person may encounter some twists and turns in his life, but the outcome will definitely be success and fame.
"Are you distracted again?"
The girl's hand waved in front of him.
Wu Chong came back to his senses and smiled.
"I was thinking about something just now. What's wrong with Brother Ling?" Since the girl was pretending to be a man, Wu Chong didn't expose her.
He is now confused about the extraordinary power of this world. Perhaps the hope of breaking the situation lies in this woman.
"It's okay, there is just a poetry meeting tonight. I heard that Miss Ruyue from Yuemanlou will be there. Brother Wu, do you want to go and listen to the music together?" Ling Zhujun winked, trying hard to pretend to be anxious.
Not good at acting.
Wu Chong smiled.
Wu Chong knew very well what the other party wanted to do to get close to him.
Although his power is not recognized by this world, he is still a true immortal. For those who are destined to have good fortune, his existence is like a star, desperately attracting them.
"No, I still have to read at night."
After rejecting the girl's invitation, Wu Chong continued his career of reading books.
The girl is the child of destiny, but for Wu Chong, she is just an alternative plan to break the situation. The highest priority plan still has to be found by himself.
There is still one third of the books in the academy that have not been finished.
Try to take a week to read it.
"Read and read, and sooner or later you will become a nerd." Ling Zhujun, who failed to invite, cursed angrily and turned to leave.
The guard Dai Yong who was following her took another look at Wu Chong, wondering how such an ordinary-looking young man could attract his own lady.
The effect of reading books is still good.
Three days later, Wu Chong found a strange ancient book.
This is a book about calligraphy and painting.
There is no mention of extraordinary power in the book, but the way it is described is very novel. It summarizes calligraphy and painting into four realms.
The first level is ‘form’, which means that the initial stages of calligraphy and painting are all copying.
Rely on copying everyone's works to improve yourself.
The second stage is "meaning". Calligraphers and painters entering the second stage begin to master their own meaning. The works written by readers in this state are completely different from those in the first stage.
The third stage is ‘spirit’. The works created by readers in the third stage will have their own spirit. Viewers can feel the "emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy" of the painter from the works. This is an advanced state where emotions are hidden in the paintings.
The fourth stage is rarely described in ancient books, except that it is called "Tao".
A book about calligraphy and painting actually mentioned ‘Tao’.
This made Master Wu, who had failed in his missionary work, suddenly see hope.
"The art of calligraphy and painting?"
Wu Chong recorded the contents of this book and prepared to go back and give it a try.
