Chapter 107 Hundred Beasts and Hundreds of Lives
The man in front of him was Xia Fan, the number one handsome man at South China Academy. He ignored his gentlemanly demeanor, but he did not want anyone to be hurt. He always did this.
"I'm really sorry, I'm rushing to the road. Please give it a little, thank you!" Muchun knew that it would not be possible to slow down for a second now, and she had to rush to the competition site as fast as possible.
"The work you have... are you here to participate in the competition too?" Xia Fan was originally unwilling to watch such boring works, but Xia Xueer insisted on forcing herself to go, otherwise he would be too lazy to go.
"No, this is the work of our lady. Oh, why do I talk so much nonsense to you? I can't even have time, please get out of here."
"Your lady?"
"You won't know the eldest lady of Linghu Mansion, right? Just know, get out of here." Mu Chun knew that this was an urgent matter.
"Is Linghu Yuxuan right? I know this and I left it to me. I happened to go to that place too. 30 seconds is enough, and there is still more."
When Xia Fan heard this name, he naturally thought it was easy to deal with. The senior sister helped her several times, and it was time to repay her once.
"Let's go." Xia Fan took the work from Muchun's arms and flashed in a corner of the elemental continent at a speed of rapid lightning and thunder.
"Hey! Why are you...so fast? You disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Muchun originally wanted to say a few words to him, but he never thought that his speed was as fast as lightning. It was too late to catch up. It turned out that he was someone the lady knew, so he could catch up with it.
Xia Fan only took less than ten seconds to rush to the scene. He originally thought that this matter was not urgent and could walk over slowly. If it weren't for this maid, he wouldn't have run so fast.
Linghu Yuxuan was praying that Mu Chun would arrive as soon as possible. Xia Fan flashed to her and took out the scrolled-up picture of the beasts and put it in front of her.
"Xia Fan, why did you come here?"
"I'm here to deliver the work with you, hurry up, the time is coming." Xia Fan handed over with a expressionless face.
"My work! Thank you so much. This thing is really important to me. Thank you Xia Fan." Linghu Yuxuan quickly took it, not daring to neglect for a second, and handed over the work, and this time just happened to happen.
Xia Fan couldn't understand because of this. He was so happy that he really couldn't understand the girl's mood. There were too many people here and he couldn't find Xueer at all.
After handing over the work, Linghu Yuxuan came to Xia Fan to express her gratitude again, because she was too hasty just now and didn’t say a few words of gratitude. If it weren’t for him, it would have been over this time, fortunately he was there.
"...I really can't understand why you girls are so happy because of a little bit of trivial matters?" Xia Fan didn't understand girls, and even his sister didn't understand them thoroughly.
"Some things may seem like a slight effort to you, but they are a big deal to me. If you suddenly ask me such a question, it must have something to do with Xia Xueer."
Xia Fan was stunned after hearing this. Unexpectedly, you could see this. It was because I didn't want to promise her to see the embroidery yesterday. She wanted to drag me away and insisted on dragging me there. I was really quarrel and had no choice but to agree.
"Yeah." After thinking about it, Xia Fan just said one word.
"You look much better." Linghu Yuxuan was talking about his Longhua, which was really much better than that time.
"Thanks to you."
Xia Fan really doesn't know how to chat with girls, and he can always chat to death, and he can be called a topic-ending player.
"Has Xia Xueer also submitted her work?" Linghu Yuxuan also wanted to take a look at Xia Xueer's works, but she never thought that Xia Fan just sighed.
"I don't have any hope for her. The little chicken pecking rice pictures I draw are better than her."
After hearing this, Linghu Yuxuan began to feel discomfort. Uh...Who said that her own girl? So the famous Xia Fanju is not good at painting? Look at what I found!
"That Xia family's work this time..."
"I don't want to embarrass myself after being disqualified from participating in the competition." It's better not to participate in such a work. When will her embroidery skills improve?
Linghu Yuxuan showed an embarrassing but polite smile. Now... how do you want me to continue?
The competition has begun, and dozens of works will be announced to the world. The master carefully looked at the works, but none of them seemed to be considered favorite.
Too flowery, too grassy, the color matching is not good...
In short, what the master picked out was all the details, which can be called picking the bones in the eggs.
However, when he saw Feng Luan and Ming's work, he thought it was good. Judging from the techniques, he did put in a little effort, but he felt that this work was a bit too fast, so it was still a little bit less flavorful.
Then I looked down and found that there seemed to be no better work than this, and it seemed that I could only tentatively decide this work.
Wait! This last one is... Oh my god, what a perfect piece this is!
The local style of harmonious colors, bright lines, lively needlework, fine embroidery, rare birds and beasts embroidered by needle application and rolling needles! This is a jade box in the world!
The decoration of embroidery patterns is neatly stitched, elegantly matched, and smooth lines. The patterns are naturally and vividly displayed, lively and powerful, fully showing the achievements of embroidery art. The landscapes and animal scenery are all exquisite, which is truly a national beauty!
——The Picture of Hundred Beasts
In fact, there is another homophonic to the Hundred Beasts Picture, which means longevity, which means longevity. This was originally a gift from Linghu Yuxuan to her grandfather, and her grandfather's birthday is approaching.
There is no other way, so I can only add some work and embroider it. No matter how hard or tiring it is for my grandfather's birthday, it is worth it.
The master looked at every detail carefully, but he really couldn't find any shortcomings, perfect and outrageous, so he was very satisfied and finally presented the work to everyone.
"Well, it's good! Well preserved, bright colors, fine embroidery, lifelike characters, famous embroidery! The craftsmanship of the girl Linghu is really good, as the saying goes, the delicate and delicate hands are delicate and soft, and the six-color intersecting silk threads are played."
After seeing this, everyone in the audience exclaimed, how could there be such a good-looking work! Miss Linghu is worthy of being a talented woman. She does needlework so carefully and subtlely, and her craftsmanship is outstanding.
Xia Fan was amazed after seeing this. Although he was not as exaggerated as they did, there was a little more amazement on his indifferent face.
Sima Wentian was even more shocked. How could this happen? How could she have such a good work? This is even better than what she saw last night!
Sure enough, she was skillful enough, but even if she did this, she would never be able to complete such a superb work in a short period of time. Sima Wentian couldn't understand this.
"I thank Mr. Yuxuan, I dare not." Linghu Yuxuan was embarrassed to hear the master's praise. He naturally was careful and cautious in his works that had been made for such a long time.
"Miss Linghu can explain to me the meaning of this work and why it is done? Generally speaking, most of the works submitted by girls are flowers or mandarin ducks, and the phoenix is related to it, but why do you have to embroider so many different animals? It must have taken a lot of time."
Although the master asked a lot of questions, she could answer all of them.
"It took a lot of time. This work is called the Picture of Hundred Beasts. It is inspired by the Mountains and Seas. It inherits the tradition of China. Birds and beasts are born from the wood. It is restored to the divine beasts in the book. A hundred beasts live a long life. I wish the master the blessing of the East Sea and the longevity of the South Mountain!"
After finishing his words, Linghu Yuxuan did not forget to salute the master and expressed her high respect for him.
After hearing this, the master nodded with satisfaction. Unexpectedly, this girl is not only beautiful, but also good in needlework and eloquence. I don’t think it’s appropriate to not comment on this best work.
"Since that's the case, the "Beasts Picture" of Miss Linghu has been selected. I hope everyone can bring better works next year."
"Okay!" The audience burst into applause like a storm, and everyone was congratulating Linghu Yuxuan's works.
Sima Wentian is crazy about jealousy. He was sure to be selected this time. He enjoyed this feeling of attention, but now he has been snatched away by you.
What are you doing! Could it be that she has been prepared for a long time? Linghu Yuxuan, you are really good, deeper than I thought. Remember this for me, this matter will not be over like this!
After the game
The crowd gradually dissipated, and only a few people were left. Linghu Yuxuan was still immersed in the joy of the work. Unexpectedly, she was praised by the master and she must embroider a better work next time.
"Your work is really good." Xia Fan stood there motionless, and waited until he finished speaking.
Linghu Yuxuan was surprised and strange. Didn’t he say he was forced to come by his sister? Why didn’t he leave after the game is over? Could it be that he had something to say to me?
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Actually, I have something to ask for. I don't know if you would like to come to our Xia Mansion. My sister likes embroidery, but she doesn't have a better embroidery lady, so it seems you're here to teach me."
Linghu Yuxuan suddenly realized that such a small thing is OK. Looking at his expression, he thought there was something big. "It's OK, but I don't have much free time every day."
"It's okay, as long as you have time, I'll take you to get familiar with the environment first. Xueer likes you very much."
Faced with Xia Fan's kind invitation, Linghu Yuxuan naturally would not refuse, "Okay, I haven't seen her in a few days."
After the two left, Sima Wentian stared at the two people's backs as they were leaving, and couldn't help but start to curse in his heart: "Linghu Yuxuan, which man are you interested in again? Even the people from the Xia Mansion are unwilling to let go. Isn't satisfied with your request?"
