Among the mountains, clouds and mist suddenly surged.

Not only Su Lin, but other scholars and candidates who entered the world of painting also came to the attention. They were also at the moment without any clues about painting. Although they all knew that it might be related to writing poetry and lyrics, they were confused about where to go and what kind of thoughts to write.

So at this time, there will be movements in the entire mountain and cloud sea, and naturally all scholars and candidates will pay attention to the past, hoping to get some inspiration from other people's actions.

"Look... That's Zou Ziqi from the semi-saint family. I said he would definitely be the first to paint. Although Su Lin's poems are brilliant, he is like us. He cannot understand the thoughts and spirit in the painting at the first time. If he cannot fit the thoughts in the painting, even the poems that govern the country may not be able to be broken into the painting..."

"Our world is respected by thoughts, and poetry is just a way to express thoughts. The real core is thoughts, let's see what kind of poetry Zou Ziqi wants to write. In this way, we will also have a direction to learn from and not blindly write poetry and lyrics..."

"I don't know for sure, and I dare not write. You know, with my current thoughts and holy power, I can only write one or two poems in one breath, but it is only at the county level. If I accidentally write it wrong, even if I correctly understand the ideas in the painting later, I don't have to think about being able to go out again!"

...

Thought-based, poetry is just a way of carrying and expressing thoughts. After entering the world of painting, the scholars and candidates on the scene knew that they had to rely on writing poems and lyrics to pass, but none of them acted rashly because with their strength, there were not many poems that could be written.

If he missed a single blow and wrote a poem incorrectly, it would be difficult to get me out again. Su Lin did not write poems in a rash manner for this reason. Although there were countless Chinese literati poems in his mind that were enough to preserve the country, with his current ability, he could only write two poems at the same time at most.

"Su Lin, no one dares to try writing poetry easily, and Zou Ziqi is also very skilled and brave. We just happened to see what the poems he wrote were like, which would cause a reflection of the world in the painting, so that we could find a better response!"

Hong Liyu stared at the front. He looked at the clouds and mist in the valley where Zou Ziqi was in front, and thought attentively.

"Li Yu, as I expected, this whole scroll is a maze. The maze locked with many thoughts, these peaks are layered mazes. I'm afraid it's not easy to get out of this painting completely..."

In Su Lin's sea of ​​wisdom, he was always using three ideas to deduce the ideological principles of this painting, and guess the ideas contained in it from the composition and shape of the peaks.

"The maze? It should be a maze. But... we candidates and scholars are all distributed in different places, so how do we need to crack the maze?"

Hearing Su Lin's words, Hong Liyu had some thoughts. However, when he thought about it carefully, the truth seemed to be filled with mist. He frowned and said, "Now, Zou Ziqi seems to have caused the reaction of the world in the painting. Su Lin, let's take a look at his situation first! Even if the world in the painting gives him the lead, we can still recover it in the next few levels..."

"It doesn't matter who comes first and who comes first. Finally, you have to enter the Jiuding Illusion World, manage the land of a county and train soldiers. That is the time to truly decide the outcome. Now, as long as you can reach the end and compete for the quota of Jiuding. Although you take the victory and defeat seriously, you think it is a showdown between me and Zou Ziqi. But I take it lightly."

Su Lin smiled, but in fact he understood in his heart. In this Confucian and Taoist world where thoughts and words are power, Confucian scholars care about the level of talent and victory or defeat.

However, how could they know that there was such a saying in ancient China that "there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts". Articles and talent ideas are actually difficult to quantify and compare the high and low levels.

Although Su Lin also hopes that he can get the first place in every imperial examination, if he is really blinded by this utilitarian ranking, he will truly fall into the lower level.

Those candidates who fail the imperial examination will leave a shadow of their thoughts because of this utilitarian mind. This mentality is also widely present in the thoughts of Confucian scholars in the Tianren continent. Therefore, the most likely moment to be punished is the imperial examination.

"Su Lin, I didn't expect you to be so open-minded? But even if you take it lightly now, the name of genius has left you involuntarily. If you lose to Zou Ziqi this time, it will definitely become the crux of others' attacks or even the heart-killing problem of you!" Hong Liyu nodded and said.

"I don't care about how others see me. However, I just need to keep my own thoughts and Taoism. It is absolutely impossible to punish me."

Su Lin's eyes were very firm, which was derived from the firmness of his thoughts. He was cautious in his original heart and was not afraid of anyone's heart-killing in any form.

At this moment, the surging of clouds and mist became even more intense on Zou Ziqi. It was Zou Ziqi who began to write poems completely, and Su Lin and Hong Liyu stopped the conversation and looked over intently.

I saw that the clouds and mists in the mountains formed a spiral vortex with Zou Ziqi as the center. Zou Ziqi had not finished writing at this time, but his poems and thoughts that were lying in the sea of ​​wisdom had already affected the changes in the sea of ​​clouds.

"The continuous peaks are obviously Mount Lu. As I expected, this is Mr. Lu's famous painting "Lushan Cloud Peak". If you want to get out of this painting, the most important thing is to go to Xilin Temple among the mountains."

Being persistent in Wenbao's brush, Zou Ziqi Zhihai's thoughts kept thinking and constructing to unravel the maze of this painting. "Now all scholars and candidates are blocked by continuous mountain peaks. No matter how they walk, they will be blocked by the mountain shape, and finally they go back and form many mazes. If I want to break through and enter Xilin Temple, I need to... break through the peak with poetry..."

After confirming his ideas, he used his thoughts to construct the poems and sentences in Zhihai. Zou Ziqi held his breath and concentrated his mind, closed his eyes and condensed his breath. After a while, he took a deep breath, sniffed slightly, and began to write.

"Turn the clouds and mists to the center,

Break through the western forest on the mountain.

Keep going without stopping

Scholars are diligent in our journey.”

The 28-word poem "Daoqin" is a poem with pearls, shining with the light of thought and wisdom. There is also a kind of courage to break through the mountains. The whole poem is hesitant. Although it is not enough to conquer the country, it can also be called a work by Mingzhou.

The most important thing is that this poem just reflects the idea of ​​"there is a way to the mountain of books". After knowing that these continuous peaks are obstacles to prevent candidates from entering Xilin Temple, Zou Ziqi tried every means to break through these peaks.

However, as he said in his poem, although he wanted to gently clear the clouds and mist and break through the heavy mountains, the mountains were continuous and his strength was not enough to break through all obstacles. Therefore, he took a different approach and thought of using the idea of ​​"there is a way to diligence in the mountains of books" to create a way of diligence.

After writing the poem "Daoqin", Zou Ziqi's wisdom hole was opened. Five holy words "Qin" flew out of the sea of ​​wisdom, connecting the light thoughts of poetry and gathering into one breath. In a moment, it turned into a golden road of diligence. He directly crossed a mountain in front of him and extended to the back of the mountain.

"I use the word diligence as the Tao, so I can directly cross such a maze. The first of the 100 candidates who came up with a solution is that I don't know what kind of solution can Su Lin come up with? Hehe! I think with Su Lin's pride, I will definitely disdain to copy my path."

After embarking on the way of diligence, Zou Ziqi looked over from afar. Knowing that Su Lin had not yet thought of a way to get out of the painting, he was suppressed by Su Lin and stretched slightly a little.

The other scholars and candidates, when they saw the poem "Daoqin" written by Zou Ziqi, suddenly realized and understood how to write it. Many candidates ignored too much and directly imitated Zou Ziqi's poem "Daoqin" and thought hard and produced similar poems, all with the idea of ​​"diligence" as the way.

This led to the fact that in a moment, the clouds and mists in the entire world in the painting formed dozens of vortexes, and at the same time, golden ways of diligence extended into the mountains.

"Haha! I really benefited from it this time. Mr. Zou proposed to use Qindao to crack the mystery. He was really amazing! But our talent is not as good as his. At most, we can only write poems from Dafu. And there is no assistance from the five holy words "Qin". It is obvious that our Qindao is much shorter than Mr. Zou..."

"But at least with this direction, we can draw. I just don't know if Su Lin, a genius who has always been proud, will learn from Zou Ziqi's diligent method to draw like us?"

"Hehe! I probably won't. It's obvious that Su Lin and Zou Ziqi are competing. Although Su Lin has been using poetry to conquer the country frequently, if he writes diligent poems, it is very likely that conquer the country and surpass Zou Ziqi. However, if he really does this, he will lose the word, saying that he was inspired by Zou Ziqi and is considered to be unfair to win. In serious cases, he may even be regarded as a weakness in his thoughts and behaviors and be punished by his enemies."

"So, you see, Su Lin was not in a hurry to write poems at this time. We don't care about these things. Follow Zou Ziqi's diligence, and now we are the leading genius Su Lin!"

...

Many scholars imitated Zou Ziqi's diligence and stepped on it smoothly. While walking, they looked at Su Lin who was still indifferent. They also felt a sense of pleasure in their hearts of suppressing Su Lin's genius. They also did not expect that in the world of the second level painting, they actually had the lead in Su Lin.
