Blessed To Have Each Other In This Life

The creative room is used by Lu Yitong and Mozang, so the design is very spacious and open, about the size of two classrooms.

Lu Yitong put the scattered paint, brushes and other debris on the side, and the people behind him followed in and were immediately attracted by the paintings full of the house.

In particular, Mossan's works are simple and magnificent, full of humanity and history and mystery. What is surprising is that there are many works that have never been exhibited here, including some unfinished paintings.

Some knowledgeable guests saw seven or eight paintings related to the Maurya Dynasty and could not help asking: "Is this a new work by Mossan? I feel that he has improved a lot..."

Another person also echoed: "The colors of these paintings are bold and not frivolous, and the artistic conception is intriguing. If they are exhibited, they will definitely arouse heated discussions."

"It seems to be the subject matter of the Maurya Dynasty. Such subject matter is rare..."

Lu Yitong walked over and explained with a smile: "Mossan likes to paint those forgotten history. The scarcer the historical materials, the more fascinated he is, and he will deliberately collect antiquities from that period.

Talking about her husband, Lu Yitong felt proud.

She looked at her husband's paintings, with appreciation and reverence in her eyes, as well as loss and sadness. This is a very complicated mood.

At this time, a guest asked: "Why do these elephants painted by Mossan have black basilisks growing on them? Anything to say?"

"These are not basilisks, they are curses." Lu Yitong said.

"Curse? What curse?"

"Oh... I also listened to him. It's a local legend." Lu Yitong flipped through the back, took out another painting, and placed it in front of everyone.

The content depicted in the painting is also that period.

Similar colors, similar scenes, similar atmosphere and artistic conception, but there is no elephant in this painting, but a execution ground surrounded by people. The center of the execution ground is burning with a raging flame. If you look closely, you can vaguely see the flame. There is a woman's face.

Lu Yitong said: "The woman in this painting is the witch of Kalinga. When it comes to Kalinga, few people know about it, but when it comes to Ashoka from the Maurya Dynasty, almost everyone knows. In Buddhist legends, Ashoka is An extremely vicious tyrant killed 99 brothers before he was firmly seated on the throne. Eight years after his official ascension, King Ashoka conquered Kalinga and brought the Maurya Dynasty to its heyday."

Someone said with emotion: "History is written by victors, and those who fail have long since turned into ashes. Where is the opportunity for people to know their existence."

Lu Yitong smiled, "Yeah...so the historical data about the Jilingjia is pitiful, only a few words are mentioned in the Moya edict records of King Ashoka. According to the records, there were 150,000 Jilingjia in this war. People were taken away and 100,000 people were killed. It was an unprecedented catastrophe."

She sighed slightly, and then said: "Before the war began, a witch from Kalingya had offered advice to the king, claiming that she could defend against King Ashoka's army.

This witch can condense the wronged soul into a curse. The cursed war elephant will grow countless snake shadows and **** all the creatures in front of her eyes. As long as the Kalinga's war elephant is cursed by the body, it can easily resist any enemy. But the king He thought it was an ominous omen, and regarded the witch as a devil, tied to the execution ground and burned alive. "

"Unbelievable..." a guest muttered while looking at the painting, "If the king adopted the witch's suggestion, wouldn't history be rewritten?"

"It's just a legendary story, are you serious? Haha!..."

Several people made jokes, and Lu Yitong smiled and said, "In fact, I have another interpretation of this legend."
