Novel Bin Chapter 606: Completed
Gu Dajiang placed the painting in his hand on the podium and let the others continue watching.
Then, he faced the student who had raised the question and said, “You’re right. Everyone encounters different problems. Therefore, if there’s a brother who has drawn with charcoal and feels that there’s anything he’s not satisfied with, and he needs someone to help him take a look, he can bring the painting over. I’ll personally show it to that artist.”
Everyone was stunned.
Gu Dajiang continued, “After the artist finishes reading it, they will naturally write down what you should pay attention to. Everyone here is a learned person. I believe that as long as you’re given some pointers, you will definitely be enlightened. Your painting skills will more or less improve.”
Everyone looked at each other. That was indeed the case. Whether it was learning or painting, there were times when they lacked a little enlightenment.
They were very tempted, so Gu Dajiang continued, “If everyone is interested, you can give the painting to me now. I’m Gu Zicheng, about to become a student of Tianhai Academy. I won’t destroy my future and deceive everyone. I promise to return the painting before school ends today. Of course, if everyone doesn’t believe me, you can ask Student Zhuo Guang, who is standing at the door.”
Zhuo Guang, who was leaning against the door listening to the commotion and marveling at Gu Dajiang’s wit, was tempted to see the painting with his own eyes.
He was so shocked that he stood up straight. Two students immediately came out of the lecture hall. Seeing that he was really there, they immediately surrounded him and asked him if it was true.
Zhuo Guang was speechless. How did he become Gu Dajiang’s guarantor?
No, he thought that his whereabouts were very secretive. How did Gu Dajiang know that he was outside?
Furthermore!
He even knows my name??
Is Gu Dajiang that smart?
Because he was too shocked, Zhuo Guang did not have time to refute at all. He only nodded subconsciously.
Zhuo Guang was relatively close to the mountain elder’s grandson, Qi Ting. Most of the students recognized him. With him as a witness, Gu Dajiang’s words became much more believable.
Therefore, someone quickly took out their painting and handed it to Gu Dajiang.
With the first one, there would be a second one. This kind of thing that was helpful to their painting skills was rare. Even students who did not have a deep understanding of painting would not let go of such an opportunity.
When Gu Dajiang saw this, he hurriedly said, “The artist only has limited time, so they can only accept 20 paintings. It’s not appropriate to accept too many.” Only twenty paintings? As soon as he said this, the other students who were still hesitating did not dare to delay anymore and quickly opened their cases.
There were also paintings left at home or in the schoolhouse. It would definitely be too late to get them now.
So someone went to the next lecture hall and told his close classmates about it.
Gradually, the students from the other lecture halls came over.
In just a short while, the 20 works requested by Mountain Elder Qi had been collected.
Gu Dajiang was a man of his word. He decisively stopped when he received 20 paintings. He gathered the paintings and left.
Some students wanted him to make an exception, but Gu Dajiang shook his head and said solemnly, “Painting and calligraphy should be slowly appreciated. If there are too many of them and the artist doesn’t have much time, won’t they be irresponsible if they look at them one by one quickly? Then they will disappoint everyone’s trust.”
He was right.
Although everyone was disappointed, they could only nod and let Gu Dajiang leave. They only repeatedly reminded him, “You have to bring the paintings back before school ends.”
“Don’t worry.” Gu Dajiang nodded solemnly.
