Diligent! Diligent!

Whether in China or in the current Tianren Continent, it is a virtue advocated by all literati and Confucian scholars.

"There is a path for diligence in the mountains of books" is even more bluntly saying that diligence is an indispensable quality in learning knowledge and thoughts. At the same time, there are also idioms and allusions such as "a stupid bird flies first" and "diligence can make up for the shortcomings" that are often used by the world to encourage others to be diligent.

Therefore, if we do not mention the painting "Lushan Yunfeng", Zou Ziqi's poems contain the idea of ​​"diligence" and uses the power of holy to open up diligence is definitely remarkable.

But now, the second level of this state test depends entirely on the compatibility between poetry and the world's thoughts in the painting, so that it is possible to break the painting.

Diligence is indeed good, otherwise it would not have caused the candidates and scholars in the world to follow, and there were also praises from the people outside the painting and scholars.

But the current situation in the world in the painting made Zou Ziqi himself a little embarrassed. It turned out that Zou Ziqi was quite sure when he thought of using Qin to figure out the painting. Because there were five holy characters "Qin", but who knew that the mystery of the world in the painting was one after another. Zou Ziqi spent a lot of holy power and thoughts to build Qin Dao. In the end, like those scholars who imitated him, he still couldn't touch Xilin Temple.

"Damn it! This Lu Qingran is worthy of being a great painter with the Hanlin Grand Secretary's literary status. I am afraid that this painting "Lushan Yunfeng" is his peak work, and even... it is only a little short of being able to become a great scholar's literary treasure! The Qindao I built with the five holy words "Qin" only skipped the three layers of maze and failed to fully penetrate the world in the painting..."

The Qindao under his feet was exhausted. Zou Ziqi had to wave the Yin and Yang fans in his hand, bringing a black and white cloud condensed by holy power. He carried him down gracefully, so as not to fall from Qindao like other candidates, caught him off guard and fell to the ground in a mess.

"Look... Even Zou Ziqi's diligence in the semi-saint family has been broken! It also fell down..."

"Really! I thought Mr. Zou could become the first candidate to break the painting! It seems that this painting is really not simple! Mr. Zou has created such a long diligent way, but he has not been able to get out of the painting yet. If I have not been eliminated and entered this second level, I will probably have no chance to get out of it..."

"But when Zou Ziqi wrote the poem "Qindao", it caused the world in the painting to surge? Why... his diligence cannot come out of the painting?"

...

The scholars outside the painting originally thought that Zou Ziqi was the first to break the painting and it was sure to win. But now, seeing the candidates on the diligence road falling one after another, even Zou Ziqi, who had the deepest thoughts and saint power, was surprised.

At the same time, they also understood more deeply that the second level of the painting in this state test is really not so easy to pass.

Although the elimination rate of the first level is very high, only one out of a hundred people can successfully enter the next level. However, after all, you can accurately see the methods and hopes of passing the level. Now this second level is like the scenery in the painting, mountains are lingering in the clouds and fog, and you can't find a way to pass the level.

Even the two most optimistic candidates, Su Lin and Zou Ziqi, have not made substantial breakthroughs. One of them is a genius who has repeatedly made poems about the country and became famous in the nine countries. The other is a genius from the Yin-Yang Family's Semi-Saint Family.

Zou Ziqi's diligence was broken, and Su Lin seemed to be stupid and didn't know what to do. This aroused great interest and doubts about this picture of "Lushan Yunfeng".

They asked Lu Qingran, the great painter on the stage, what is the mystery of this painting?

"Old Mr. Lu, you see, everyone is thinking about the essence of your thoughts in "Lushan Yunfeng". To put it ashamed, although I am the governor of a state in a state, my literary position has also reached the peak of the Hanlin Grand Secretary's literary position. However, perhaps because I have not personally entered the painting, I can't see the thoughts contained in the painting?"

Knowing what you know, not knowing what you don’t know. The governor of the state Pang Shihua did not hide himself at all and told the great painter Lu Qingran that, in addition, scholars all have the spirit of seeking knowledge and learning, especially when encountering difficulties, they want to find out more.

The more difficult and unpredictable the thought, the more you want to understand it. If you cannot know its true meaning, you may form a long-term problem vortex in the sea of ​​wisdom and feel resentful for a long time.

With a humble and studious attitude, Zhou Mu Pang Shihua personally asked the great painter Lu Qingran for advice, saying that the true meaning of his thoughts in "Lushan Yunfeng" was.

But who knew that this seemingly obscure Old Lu smiled strangely, then shrugged and smiled at the provincial mu Pang Shihua, "Pangzhou mu, do you really want to know the ideological meaning of this painting?"

"Of course! You have to be easy to ask when you study, and if you don't understand, you have to ask. Since I am incompetent, please give me advice!" Zhou Mu Pang Shihua bowed.

At the same time, the scholarly candidates in the audience also came to the spotlight. Zhou Mu Pang Shihua was actually asking for the hundreds of candidates, what does this painting mean?

But just as everyone was looking forward to hearing the answer lingering in the sea of ​​wisdom from Mr. Lu for a long time, Mr. Lu said: "The true ideological meaning of this painting is actually not only you want to know, but I... also want to know!"

"What? Mr. Lu, don't spend time with me. This painting "Lushan Yunfeng" was drawn by you by yourself. How could you not know the thoughts contained in the painting?"

Mr. Lu’s answer really surprised everyone. Zhou Mu Pang Shihua questioned with a frustrated face in disbelief.

"Don't believe it?"

The great painter Lu Qingran smiled and pointed to the scroll in the air and said to Pang Shihua, "Pangzhou Master, you are also the peak of Hanlin Grand Secretary. You can count... How many peaks are there in this "Lushan Cloud Peak"?"

“The number of peaks?”

If Lu Qingran had not said this, the provincial governor Pang Shihua would not care about the specific number of peaks in the painting. But now that Mr. Lu mentioned this, Pang Shihua looked at him, his face changed drastically, and his eyes widened in horror, looking at Lu Qingran and said, "Ninety-nine peaks, this... is your holy power peak? Is your weapon? Is it actually pregnant in the painting? No wonder... No wonder I think the thoughts and holy power contained in this painting will be so huge!"

"Um!"

Lu Qingran did not explain too much, but nodded slightly, then looked at Su Lin, who was still pondering in the world in the painting, and sighed in his heart: "The genius of cunning semi-saints in the temple value Su Lin so much. It is rumored that Su Zong broke through to the semi-saint, which is the credit of this son. I just don't know if my opportunity to break through to the great scholar lies with him?"

"Register! Mr. Lu, you don't know the meaning of the painting yourself, so you use this painting as a test question in the state exam. Would it be... too reckless?"

The provincial governor Pang Shihua was shocked at this time. Lu Qingran was a painter who practiced the idea of ​​painting mountains. He was known for painting mountains, so the instruments would naturally be one hundred painted mountain peaks. Now it is only one step away from the great scholars. There are ninety-nine painted mountain peaks, which were originally grown in Lu Qingran's sea of ​​wisdom.

However, now Lu Qingran has moved the instrument into the painting through the "register" technique. This is a shortcut to break through the great scholars, but it is in danger of being "drawing from the instrument". If this painting is snatched and refined by others, Lu Qingran's literary position and thoughts may be directly dropped into the Grand Secretary.

When Pang Shihua saw Lu Qingran paying attention to Su Lin in the painting, he knew that Lu Qingran’s purpose was to rely on Su Lin to help him understand and break through this last layer of thought. But the current situation is in the state examination, and hundreds of candidates who advanced were in the world of painting, which was related to whether they could advance. However, Lu Qingran used such a picture as an exam, so Pang Shihua asked this question.

"Don't worry! Pangzhou Mu, even if no one can understand the thoughts of the painting in the end, he can rely on the holy power and thoughts to break the painting through other methods like Zou Ziqi. The ninety-nine mountains in my painting only have five layers of mazes! The three layers of mazes that Zou Ziqi has successfully broken through, with his talent and ability, I believe that he will be able to break the painting soon!"

Lu Qingran's words dispelled the concerns of the provincial governor Pang Shihua. At the same time, it also made the provincial governor Pang Shihua even more interested in this painting and Su Lin who was thinking about it. Can Su Lin understand the true meaning in the painting? What kind of thought is the true meaning in the painting?

Of course, the candidates in the world of painting could not hear the conversation between Lu Qingran and Pang Shihua outside. Otherwise, they would probably be so angry that they would curse themselves. This ever-lasting painter actually allowed them to enter a world of painting where he didn't even know his thoughts.

At this time, Zou Ziqi, who was stopped at the third level of maze, slightly restored his thoughts and holy power, and carefully estimated the situation in front of him, and he was completely sure in his heart.

"I understand! There are 99 mountains in this painting "Lushan Cloud Peak", forming a five-layer maze inside and outside. If you want to cross or break these five-layer maze, it will consume sacred power and thoughts extremely, and you need to write poems with certain ideological secrets. My poem "Qindao" can only cross the three-layer maze, and there are two-layer maze... As long as I repeat "Qindao" again, I will definitely be able to break the five-layer maze..."

After judging the situation, Zou Ziqi was overjoyed. Although most of his holy power and thoughts were consumed, victory was right in front of him. This time he was sure that he was absolutely not wrong, so after a little pause, he picked up Wenbao brush, used the holy power as ink again, and wrote the next song "Qindao" (To be continued...)
