Chapter 3868 1 Painting Theory

( ) Shi Rui nodded solemnly and said: "The painting school founded by Zhu Ruoji is of a very high level. Many people later learned his painting method, and coupled with their own insights, they also became masters of painting. Therefore, he is A painting master-level figure has gathered a large number of believers under his command, and his prestige is extremely high! It's okay for you to offend others, but it is really unwise to offend him."

When Fairy Xiangyun heard this, she couldn't help complaining in her heart, and she regretted so much that her intestines were almost green...

Suddenly, she seemed to hear someone's prompt. She perked up and turned to Li Yun to plead. "Sir, it seems that this maid can only count on you..."

Li Yun smiled secretly, knowing of course that it was Qinghong who had the best relationship with Xiangyun who gave her the hint, and said, "You want to use my calligraphy treasure to apologize to Xiao Zhu, right?"

Upon hearing this, Fairy Xiangyun said quickly: "Oh, if I get the master's calligraphy treasure, I will not transfer it to you under any circumstances. How can I use it to apologize to Xiao Zhu?"

"Then how do you want me to help you? Should I come forward to mediate between you two? In fact, when I punished you, I was already mediating. Xiao Zhu should be able to accept this punishment. After all, I made the decision myself, which shows that I am not partial to my beloved maid, so this matter has actually ended..." Li Yun said with a smile.

"That's it. It seems like my little maid doesn't need to provoke him anymore, right? I don't want to learn painting anyway, so it's okay not to deal with him in the future." Fairy Xiangyun suddenly said.

Li Yun nodded slightly and said: "If you really don't want to learn painting, then of course there is no need to bother, but..."

"But what?" Xiangyun asked urgently.

"Do you know why you were so angry at that time that you behaved abnormally at the scene?" Li Yun asked.

"What?! Was I embarrassed at that time? My little maid has already erased that part of her memory. Now that I think about it, the scene must have been very unfavorable to me, so I simply chose to be a desert ostrich..." Fairy Xiangyun sighed. road.

Li Yun smiled and said: "It's very appropriate for you to compare yourself to a desert ostrich. The situation at that time was indeed very unfavorable to you. The root cause was not your attitude towards Xiao Zhu, but what you said to Xiao Zhu. The random comments in the painting theory made everyone in the Taoist Hall speechless and incredulous at the shallowness of your painting skills! What you need to know is that in their eyes, you are my beloved maid, and you should be responsible for my painting skills. With a deeper understanding, what you say without saying it will be of great help to them. At the very least, it should be in line with the meaning of painting, right?"

"This... oh, sir, as you know, my little servant has never been interested in painting Taoism. She knows nothing about it. How can she possibly give any good advice? I don't know if she took the wrong medicine at that time, but she went to teach Taoism. Listen to the lecture on painting in the hall..."

"It is a good thing to go to the teaching hall to listen to the teachings and teachings.

Maybe you also have the potential to develop painting skills? There are many things that you cannot set limits for yourself. If you already feel that it is impossible for you to develop in the way of painting, then you will naturally not be able to delve into it. However, maybe you will really listen to it and then learn about the way of painting. Once you become interested, this is a seed that will take root and sprout in your heart, and maybe one day it will grow into a towering tree..." Li Yun encouraged.

"Towering big tree..." Fairy Xiangyun couldn't help being stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect that Li Yun would praise her for attending the class. It seems that she didn't take the wrong medicine at that time...

"Yes, at the beginning, who of you would have thought that Xiao Bing could develop to this level in calligraphy? His calligraphy in Xingyun Castle is truly priceless! And all of this only originated from his love for me. I became interested in calligraphy, so I kept practicing to reach such a high level!" Li Yun continued.

Xiong Bing listened with great satisfaction, his beard almost stood up...

"Sir, do you really think that it is possible for my little maid to develop in the field of painting?" Fairy Xiangyun felt itchy after hearing this and couldn't help but ask.

"How do I put this? As a cultivator, especially in our Xingyunbao civilization, one of the biggest benefits is that life span is almost infinite. Therefore, in theory, everyone can perform any Taoist intention. Try, because you have enough time. If you find that you really don't have the talent in this area, it's not too late to give up. But if you find that you have the talent, wouldn't that be an unexpected gain?" Li Yun said with a smile.

"My lord, that's what you said! It seems that my little servant really lacks the belief to persevere, and is dabbling in many aspects, so that she has made little achievements in the Taoism. She is left far behind by the brothers and sisters around her..." Xiangyun The fairy sighed.

"Well, you don't have to belittle yourself. I've seen your progress over the years, and I believe they won't underestimate you! As for the favor you mentioned just now, I have an idea..."

"Oh? What's your idea?!" Fairy Xiangyun couldn't help but perked up after hearing this.

"Xiao Zhu was talking about the theory of one painting, but because you didn't understand it at all, you simply understood it as the theory of one painting. This of course caused the audience to burst into laughter and caused your mentality to become unbalanced. If If you meet Xiao Zhu again, but you can talk about the theory of painting in a clear and logical way, wouldn't that be able to win back the victory? For Xiao Zhu, no gift you give him is likely to arouse his interest, but if you are interested in his The painting theory is settled and made sense, which is the best gift for him. You must know that this painting theory is the foundation of Xiao Zhu's painting and the origin of all his painting methods. As the saying goes, it is difficult to find a confidant in life. "It's not easy to find someone who can fully understand his painting style..." Li Yun said with a smile.

"What you said is great! But this theory of painting is probably very difficult to understand. How can I, a layman in painting, understand it and grasp its principles in a short period of time?" Fairy Xiangyun said with a guilty conscience. said.

Li Yun nodded and said: "What you said is indeed what many people think, including all of you here may think so. However, if you understand Xiao Zhu's life experience and experience, and want to understand his theory of one painting, It’s not particularly difficult.”

"Really?!" Fairy Xiangyun couldn't help but get excited after hearing this, and the others were also staring closely at Li Yun...

"When Zhu Ruoji was a child, he was a mortal and a descendant of the last emperor. At that time, in order to avoid the pursuit of the new dynasty, he traveled incognito and traveled around. During this period, he visited a lot of mountains and rivers. He laid the foundation for his painting. Later, he became a monk in order to take refuge and gained a deeper understanding of Zen. Zen Tao had a great influence on his painting, so much so that his One Painting Theory actually It is also born out of Zen Tao, and many of his remarks are derived from Zen Tao. If you start with Zen Tao and then understand his theory of painting, your understanding will be greatly increased, and I believe you will make progress in painting. It can be larger..." Li Yun introduced.

"So that's it..." Everyone suddenly realized...

"Can your Excellency first tell me what his One Painting Theory is about?" Fairy Xiangyun asked.

Li Yun nodded and said: "Okay, Xiao Zhu's painting theory started by saying that it was impossible in ancient times and was too simple to be dispersed. This refers to the chaotic state before the initial formation of the universe. It also implies that the so-called 'law' comes from' Can't start."

"Dharma starts from the impossible?" Fairy Xiangyun was confused when she heard it, but she still remembered it tightly. She knew that every word Li Yun said was crucial to the conversation between her and Zhu Ruoji...

"He went on to say that once Taipu is dispersed, the Dharma is established. The word 'disperse' here is the key. Dispersion is to break the chaotic state of ancient helplessness. Zen Taoism calls it 'dependent origination'!" Li Yun explained.

"Destined Origination?!" Everyone had some understanding, and it seemed that they still needed to work hard on the Zen path...

"Yes, where does Xiao Zhu's statement come from? It is based on one painting. One painting is the foundation of many people and the root of all things. He was ridiculed by you after he said this sentence at that time. In fact, Xiao Zhu is The principle of legislation is put forward here. The "one painting" he said does not refer to a painting, or any pattern, form or feeling, but must be explained according to the Zen way, that is, knowing the mind and seeing the nature, because all dharmas are inseparable from the mind. , the mind can generate all dharmas. The "Lotus Sutra" says: "One dharma hides all dharmas, all dharmas are hidden in one dharma, all dharmas are one dharma, one dharma leads to all dharmas, and all dharmas are in one dharma." What is said in the sutra One, refers to the heart. Therefore, one of the methods of "One Painting" proposed by Xiao Zhu refers to the heart. If a person can understand the mind and see his nature, he can achieve one, and all the dharmas are in it. However, to reach the heart dharma The root lies in dependent origination. Only when the nature of dependent origination is empty can we see the nature. If a person reaches the point of seeing the nature, it will be very easy to get the "one-painting method" mentioned by Xiao Zhu, because the oneness at this time can be done as one pleases. , at this time, this method is a method of great wisdom, so Xiao Zhu’s theory leads to the conclusion that ‘one painting is the foundation of many things, and the root of all things’...” Li Yun said.

"Wow..." Everyone was fascinated by what they heard, imagining that if they could reach the state of knowing one's mind and seeing one's nature, wouldn't it be easy to learn the art of painting?

Or if you reach such a state of mind, wouldn't it be easier to learn other Taoisms? This is simply the basis of the state of mind for learning all Taoisms...

It's a pity that they know that it is not easy for a person to achieve the ethereal state of clear mind and nature mentioned in Zen Tao. Look at the old guys in Zen Tao. They study tirelessly one by one, but there are a few who can really achieve it. What about the highest state of knowing one's mind and one's nature?

Xiong Bing asked with envy: "Sir, how can we achieve such a state of mind? I feel that sometimes when I write calligraphy, I seem to have a certain ethereal feeling. At that time, the calligraphy I wrote is The best, but later when I wanted to write that kind of calligraphy again, I found that no matter what, I couldn't enter that state again and write that kind of calligraphy..."
