Qi Ning instantly came back to reality and realized that there was no abstractionism in this era.
He just saw that this painting of Divine Marquis’s was vague but with smooth lines, seeming to be of artistic conception, so he thought of the abstract paintings involuntarily. In fact, he knew only a little about the abstract paintings.
“Oh?” Seeing that Divine Marquis looked at him, Qi Ning had to say, “That’s a school of painting. Haven’t you heard of it, Divine Marquis?” He knew that it was impossible for Divine Marquis to hear of the abstractionism, yet he had to say so now.
Obviously, Divine Marquis was interested. “I know something about the schools of painting. As far as I know, there are mainly two schools nowadays, the north school and the south school of painting. The north school mainly paints scenery with hills and waters, and the south school is adept at painting living things, such as birds, beasts and characters. There are mo
After they walked out of the Leisure House, Qu Xiaocang was nowhere to be seen, and only Duan Canghai was waiting outside. Ximen Zhanying had a saber with her. She glanced at Duan Canghai and said coldly, “You have a guard to protect you, so you don’t need me to escort you.”“Zhanying, it’s Divine Marquis’s kindness. If I refuse him, I will show disrespect for him, and he will probably be unhappy.” Qi Ning sighed. “In fact, I don’t want you to escort me. How about I come back in and tell him that you have jobs to do and don’t want to send me home?”Ximen Zhanying said angrily, “You can’t call me like this again.”“What should I call you?” Qi Ning smiled. “How about I call you Ying? Divine Marquis is my friend, and you are young, so it must be okay if I call you Ying like him.”Ximen Zhanying was furious and snorted, walking out. After she took a few steps, she looked back and asked in a rage, “Why don’t you go?”
Caught by Qi Ning, that man thought he had done something wrong. After hearing what Qi Ning said later, he sighed with relief and said while smiling, “Sir, something interesting is going on over there. You should go and take a look now. People are having martial arts competitions in the arena and it has lasted for three days. Today will be the last day. The winner will be announced later.”Qi Ning was slightly shocked and asked, “Martial arts competitions?”“It’s held by Tian Family.” The man explained, “If anyone can be the winner, he will get a reward of one hundred taels of silver. It’s said that he will also get a secret gift.”“One hundred taels of silver?” Qi Ning sneered. In the past, he might felt satisfied with the amount of money, but recently, he got to know lots of objects worth even thousands of taels of silver. One hundred was just too little money for him now. Moreover, the winner could only get such little money. People w
Qi Ning looked at the two people on the stage. In all fairness, they fought with a series of skills, and they punched and kicked, which showed that they had practiced martial arts for years. The dark-skinned big guy fought with more powerful strength obviously, but his movements were not as flexible as his opponent’s.At the moment, the dark-skinned big guy apparently gained the upper hand, and his opponent had to dodge depending on his flexible movements. The crowd under the stage were noisy. Some of them supported the dark-skinned guy, and some supported the refined man.“Zhanying, who do you think will win?” Qi Ning glanced at Ximen Zhanying next to him and asked with a smile. Ximen Zhanying turned away and craned her neck. Qi Ning murmured, “I thought that you are powerful in martial arts, yet it turns out that you can’t find who is more powerful. It’s so disappointing.”Ximen Zhanying gritted her white teeth and clenched her fists.
The dark-skinned big guy had cold sweat on his forehead. This man was really strong and endured the pain, looking at Qi Ning. Then he suddenly roared like a beast and rushed to Qi Ning.The big guy rushed over with all strength like a fierce tiger. Qi Ning knew that he couldn’t confront the tough with toughness as this man had great force, so he strode with his left foot from the left front and dodged effortlessly like a ghost.Although this big guy had practiced for a few years with a foundation, facing the mysterious footwork, the Easy Travel, he didn’t have a chance. When Qi Ning dodged successfully, he flashed and came to the back of the big guy. In front of the big guy, he certainly didn’t need to walk the steps of the Easy Travel from beginning to end. He turned back and raised his foot, kicking the big guy’s butt hard.The big guy was rushing forward and couldn’t stop himself. After Qi Ning kicked him, it was like adding fuel to t
As Butler Tian said, the Tian family’s mansion was not far away.After they walked to the street corner, they turned to the south and then went to another street. Soon they saw a large courtyard with cyan bricks, red tiles and a big brown door.Although the Tian family was famous for dealing with medicinal materials in the capital, after all, it was not an official’s family, and they didn’t dare to use a conspicuous red door.Dozens of people followed them to the door of the Tian family, and several servants were waiting at the door. Obviously they had got the news. Seeing that Butler Tian led Qi Ning here, the servants hurriedly invited him into the mansion. Butler Tian could see that Duan Canghai and Ximen Zhanying were Qi Ning’s companions, so he invited them in, too.The dozens of people who followed them and came to watch a show certainly couldn’t enter the mansion, so all of them complained.Although the T
Qi Ning was scared and wondered if the hearsay was true that the secret gift was marrying the lady. Did Mrs. Tian who was mature and beautiful want to find another husband as she couldn’t endure the loneliness after being a widow for three years?Mrs. Tian noticed the surprise on Qi Ning’s face and understood at once, while her fair-skinned and tender cheeks got red and looked fascinating. She hurriedly explained, “No. Don’t get me wrong. I mean... Eh, Master Qi, since you went to the stage to compete, you must have heard some rumors.”“Madam, what do you mean?”“Some people have said that the secret gift after winning the competition is to marry the lady in our mansion. Have you heard about it?” Mrs. Tian looked at Qi Ning with her beautiful eyes like fog.Qi Ning answered, “Since it is a rumor, it must not be true.”Mrs. Tian smiled. “In fact, it is true.”“What?” Qi Ning was stunned and asked aut
The servants were aggressive, while Qi Ning was amused in secret. He restrained himself with effort and stated, “You must know that I have competed on the stage. The big guy was beaten down the stage by me easily. Do you want to have a try, too?”The servants heard that and instantly realized that this young man couldn’t be defeated easily, so they felt nervous.The burly man with a hoarse voice forced a smile. “Master Qi, Madam has something to tell you. Look, it’s still early, and you don’t need to go in a hurry. If you leave, we will have no food to eat. When we are outside, let’s help each other. Just wait a moment, and we won’t have a difficult time.”Qi Ning knew that if he delayed, Mrs. Tian would come soon. It didn’t matter if he was tough in front of these people, and he would escape after frightening them, but Mrs. Tian was silver-tongued and he couldn’t cope with her easily, so he howled in a low voice, “Since we should help e
Seeing that this way was effective, Duan Canghai stated, “Marquis is precious. Imagine the consequence if he loses a hair.” He looked at Mrs. Tian, saying in a softer voice with a smile, “Mrs. Tian, Marquis walked past the arena today, so he exercised. You can’t keep him here because of that, right?”Mrs. Tian bit her ruddy lower lip with her white teeth and asked in disbelief, “Is...he really Marquis of Honor?”“Madam, who dares to impersonate Marquis of Honor?” Duan Canghai raised his head slightly. “Anybody will be put to death by dismembering the body if he impersonates Marquis of Honor.”Qi Ning’s heart beat fast, and he thought, “I am really an imposter. It turns out that the person who impersonates Marquis of Honor will be put to death by dismembering the body.”Of course, he knew what it meant. He felt terrified even when he thought about it.Mrs. Tian wrinkled her beautiful brows and kept silent for a m
Qi Ning and the others waited outside the cave for a few moments before they saw White Toothpower come out, saying, "The Great Witch has given permission to go in, so all of you follow me."The crowd followed behind White Toothpower and entered within the stone cave.From the outside, the grotto is just an ordinary grotto, but Qi Ning in-depth, only to be appalled at the grotto of the project is huge, just the grotto of the vast scale, most of which is still attributed to the nature of the ghostly craftsmanship, and then later years, and by the Miao people keep building, only to have today's scale.Although the size of the grotto is not small, but is full of lonely and desolate, the people walk in the grotto, kicking and stepping, in the grotto spread out a long way, more show the quiet of the grotto.Qi Ning was even thinking at this time, if the Great Witch was alone here, alone and lonely, it was really a bit pitiful.After walking through a long tun
Several chiefs looked at each other, and one said loudly, "Dandu Bone, you have already killed the Great Miao King, do you want to make another mistake? If you hurt a single hair of Rangchadulu's head, we will definitely break your body into pieces."Dandu Bone said sternly,"Just based on Langchadulu's words, you put the blame on my Dandu Bone's head? You are all the chiefs of the villages, do you believe Langchadulu's words so easily?"Langchadulu exclaimed, "The evidence is overwhelming, could it be that I am falsely accusing you? Dandu Bone, you are so guilty that you should commit suicide in public to give everyone an explanation." Feeling the knife on the neck slightly tightened, the body could not help but tense up, and there was a trace of fear in his heart."I am Yifu of Black Rock Cave, the murder of the Great Miao King was all a trap set by Langchadulu." Seeing the blackness of the surrounding people and the flashes of swords, Yifu shouted, "It was Langch
The night was dark and moonless, and the Xishan Mountain Range was shrouded in night.The big Miao King was killed, the remains were placed within the large village of the Miao village, the village in addition to assigning some manpower to guard the various key roads on the mountain, young and old are already gathered to the outside of the large village, under the night, a group of people in the black, at least there are also thousands of people.The crying seemed to go on unabated from morning to night.During the years when the Great Miao King was alive, the Cangxi Miao Village, under his command, was almost peaceful, with people being self-sufficient and young and old in peace.Big Miao King is like a big tree, has been in the Miao village shelter, people have also been accustomed to have such a big tree protection and blessing.But overnight, the great tree of the Great Hmong King collapsed, and for many people, the murder of the Great Hmong King wa
The three of them were naturally unable to sleep this night, and by the next day, no one could be seen coming over for the entire day.The Prisoner Wolf Wall is quite a distance from the fortress, but despite this, the three of them heard the sound of weeping coming from the fortress, and in their hearts, they all knew that the news of the murder of the Great Miao King had spread throughout the fortress.The weeping continued for a whole day, and Dandu Bone could hardly help himself, and cried twice when he thought of the murdered King of the Great Hmong.This day not only no one to come over to the arraignment, and even the food delivery is not seen to come over, until after dark, only to see Chegu with another guard carrying a food basket to come over.Chegu first sent the meal between the gaps in the iron bars within Dandu Bone's stone prison, then Yifu, and finally Qi Ning's stone prison.Seeing that the meal was also still quite hearty, Qi Ning lau
At Qi Ning's words, Yi Fu suddenly came to a realization, her heart was appalled, and she said, "Langchadulu wanted to send out troops, but the Great Miao King and Dandu Bone didn't agree and insisted on negotiating, so Langchadulu set up a trap, killed the Great Miao King, and framed us and Dandu Bone for the crime.""That's my guess." Qi Ning sighed, "If my guess is correct, then we shouldn't survive a day. Now that Dandu Bone is imprisoned here and the Great Miao King has been killed, Langchadulu has become the number one person in Upper Water Cave, and it's only right that he can call the shots." With a hefty smile, he said, "The three of us are the ones he is most uneasy about right now, as long as we are dead, and the Great Hmong King is killed there will be someone to take the blame for him, and he will have nothing to worry about anymore."Dandu Bone clenched his fist and snapped, "If the Great Miao King was really killed by him, I ... I will definitely break thi
The three of them were each put within a stone cave, with Yifu in the center and Qi Ning and Dandu Bone to the left and right.As soon as Qi Ning entered inside, he knew that it was extremely difficult to get out, the cave was rocky on three sides, and only one side of the iron bars could be accessed.Prisoner wolf wall is obviously the upper water hole carefully designed place, the iron bars are made of fine iron, and on the iron lock, if the cold blade in hand, Qi Ning still think some opportunity to break out of the door, and now want to unarmed out of the cage, that is whimsical.In addition, there are also left three strong Miao people here to guard, that wooden house is the guard room, the front door is opposite to the stone wall prison, people in the inside, can notice every move within the stone prison.Yi Fu sat within the stone prison, anxious, she did not care about her own safety, but when she thought that the Great Miao King had met an untimely e
Dandu Bone's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "What did you say?""Dandu Bone, I heard that you have known these two for a long time?" Rangchadulu gripped the cold blade in his hand, "When you were at the bottom of the mountain, I heard that you were prepared to bring them up the mountain without the Great Miao King's orders?"Dandu Bone's face changed at first, and he snapped, "Rangchadulu, what do you mean by that?"Langchadulu seemed to still have some scruples about Dandu Bone, took two steps back and said loudly, "What do I mean, don't you understand? What exactly is the origin of these two people, you have to give us an explanation."At this time there was a crowd of more than ten people in the room, and all of them looked at Dandu Bone when they heard Rangchadulu say this.Dandu Bone clenched his fist and said, "That's right, I met them on my way back and .... they have saved my life.""It's good that you admit it." Rangchadulu
Langchadulu's voice was mournful, Eve's expression changed dramatically, and Qi Ning's face sank.The Miao people who followed Rangchadulu over were all shocked, and two of them had already snatched into the house, while Yifu had already followed into the house as well.Qi Ning followed behind Yi Fu and went in, only to see that there was a rattan chair at the corner of the house, the Great Miao King was sitting on top of the rattan chair, his back leaning against the rattan chair, but his head was drooping down on his chest, the house was filled with a smell of blood, the light of the oil lamps flickered, and Rangchadulu knelt down at the feet of the Great Miao King, holding the Great Miao King's hand, his complexion was bleak.Qi Ning's expression was cold, by the light of the lamp, but he had also seen clearly that in the chest of the Great Miao King, a blood stain, and the blood was flowing downward, obviously just killed soon.What shocked Qi Ning was no
Dandu Bone said in a deep voice, "Rangchadulu, for so many years, we Miao people have been living in harmony with the Han people, do you know what the consequences would be if we were to call in the troops from all the caves?"Langchadulu asked rhetorically, "And do you know what will happen if we are indifferent and turn a blind eye to the situation in the Black Rock Cave?" He took a step forward and said, "Our mission at Upper Water Cave is to stand up for the Miao people when they are in danger. Now that we all know that the Black Rock Cave is suffering from injustice, yet we sit back and do nothing, won't the Miao Family's 72 caves be chilled?""Not bad, Great Miao King, Black Rock Cave Eve has already told us the truth of the matter, this is obviously a trap set by the government for Black Rock Cave, they are so insidious, do we have to wait until Black Rock Cave has been killed before we react?" A Miao man said with righteous indignation, "Let's immediately send pe
