Zheng Yuanwai didn't care at all, picked up the dragon picture drawn by the scholar and looked at it, and was immediately amazed! I saw that the dragon in the painting was lifelike, shaking its head and tail, not angry and arrogant, and it was vivid!

At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the thunder roared, and the dragon in the painting seemed to be about to leap out of the paper and soar away! It is said that Zhou Zijian can fully compete with many celebrities in the previous dynasty.

In fact, Zheng Yuan, a person who can't read big characters, just said it casually! But that painting can be seen by even a blind person, and it is really a superb product.

Zhou Zijian heard Zheng Yuanwai's words of appreciation, but he sighed and said: Although many celebrities in the previous dynasty are famous all over the world, none of them can escape a life of poverty and depression!

Alas.....! I am not like that! Although I am not as famous as theirs, my situation is similar.

After smiling bitterly, Zhou Zijian told Zheng Yuanwai about his life, he shook his head and sighed and said: I like to paint by nature, and I have been obsessed with painting since I was a child, and I have reached the point of forgetting to sleep and eat! Because of this, his studies were delayed and he failed repeatedly.

My father hopes that his son will become a Chan and that I will be able to enter the department. He has repeatedly taught me that I must not lose my mind by playing with things! I must attach importance to my studies. But I turned a deaf ear, and even quarreled with my father many times, so that he died with hatred!

After my father's death, the family's fortune deteriorated! My mother was depressed and followed my father within half a year. In the end, I was the only one left in the house, and although I was sad in my heart, I still did not repent, and indulged in painting all day to relieve my sorrows.

It didn't take long for my family property to run out, and I wanted to make a living by selling calligraphy and paintings, but in troubled times, everyone in the world was too busy to take care of themselves!

Zhou Zijian muttered to himself and kept talking! Although he looked at Zheng Yuanwai, he seemed to be talking to himself! When he talked about the sadness, he couldn't help but burst into tears! Zheng Yuanwai didn't know how to comfort him.

I have been drawing dragons for half my life, but I can't draw myself as a dragon after all! I am full of economic wealth, but I can't display my ambitions, and what do I get in the end? In the cold winter, I was so depressed that I didn't even have a cotton coat to protect against the cold, and I was almost frozen to death.

Speaking of this, Zhou Zijian had a resolute look on his face! Since this is the case, what is the use of this money! Just hearing the "click", Zhou Zijian had already broken the pen. And said leisurely: It's better to learn some crafts, and you can also ask for a job and have enough food and clothing.

Zheng Yuanwai wanted to stop him, but he couldn't find a reason, so he had to look at the sky and sigh! Zhou Zijian broke his pen and stopped talking. Then he looked at the pen that had accompanied him for half his life, and now it had been broken in half, and his eyes were full of sadness!

After thinking about it, Zheng Yuanwai still found some comforting words to comfort Zhou Zijian! Zhou Zijian wiped the tears in his eyes, and said embarrassedly: Thinking of the past, my heart was touched, and I lost my temper for a while, but it made the outsider smile.

Whoever is not yet in poverty is in the age of his brotherhood, and he is in the prime of his life, and he will eventually come out in the future!

Zhou Zijian nodded after hearing this, and when he saw that it was getting late, he said goodbye to Zheng Yuanwai. Zheng Yuanwai saw that it was freezing outside, so he refused to let him go and let him stay here. Zhou Zijian thanked him again and again and stayed overnight.

Early the next morning, Zheng Yuanwai took out three ingots of silver as a gift when the scholar left. After Zhou Zijian hesitated again and again, he only accepted a piece of silver! Then he left.

After Zhou Zijian left, Zheng Yuanwai hung the dragon picture he drew in the hall. Although I saw it every day, I didn't notice anything unusual about the dragon picture, and I didn't realize that it was a precious thing. But Zheng Yuanwai never thought that this dragon figure would save his life in the future!

More than half a year has passed in a flash, and in the past six months, there has been a series of droughts, and not a drop of rain has fallen from the sky! The rivers and lakes have dried up, and there has been no harvest in the fields. Coupled with the heavy taxes, the people have no surplus food, and they have reached a desperate situation!

Zheng Yuanwai opened a warehouse to release grain and set up a porridge factory. At first, the people in the vicinity were grateful to Dai De and called Zheng Yuanwai a living bodhisattva! But after a long time, the people in the vicinity had become accustomed to it, and they felt that this good deed was what Zheng Yuanwai should do.....

The drought lasted for three years without a drop of rain! As a result, Zheng Yuanwai's porridge factory was opened for three years, and a large amount of real money was spent in three years. Even if Zheng Yuanwai has a rich family, he can't withstand such consumption!

He had already emptied his family and had no choice but to stop running a porridge factory. And told the people in the vicinity the reason! However, the people in the vicinity did not believe it, and accused Zheng Yuan of not saving him when he saw death!

It is said that without the help of the porridge factory, how can they live! As soon as they die, they will fall into the grass one after another. hated Zheng Yuanwai for being rich and unkind, and the first thing to rob was Zheng Yuanwai's house.

The people came to Zheng Yuanwai's house with knives and sticks and tied Zheng Yuanwai up. Then they rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, searching for valuable objects. However, in a huge mansion, only three or five taels of silver were found under the bed.....

Everyone didn't believe it, but they thought it was Zheng Yuanwai who hid the money. He was forced to hand over his family's money, and Zheng Yuanwai was very angry, so he kept silent! Seeing this, everyone was furious, and they stepped forward one after another to beat Zheng Yuanwai half to death.

One of the leaders said, "Remember that you have done a lot of good things before, as long as you hand over the money hidden in your family, I will spare your life." If not, you will have no money to spend!

Zheng Yuanwai sneered, coldly spat at the man, sprayed the blood in the man's face, and said: You ungrateful dog, I have helped you three times before. When your mother was buried, it was still the coffin I bought, if your mother knew about it, how could she allow you to be presumptuous here.

The man was exposed by Zheng Yuanwai, and he was immediately annoyed and angry! Seeing that there was a cup of cold tea on the table, he took it and threw it at Zheng Yuanwai. Zheng Yuan tilted his head outside and dodged, but the tea was splashed on the dragon picture hanging in the hall.

The leader was even more angry when he saw that the tea had not been spilled on Zheng Yuanwai's body! Zheng Yuanwai, who was beaten, retreated again and again, dizzy, and his eyes were full of stars. It took a long time to recover his strength, and I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed today!

However, when he opened his eyes, he saw that the man was looking behind him in a daze, showing a look of horror.....

When Zheng Yuanwai looked back, he was also amazed! When he saw that the dragon on the dragon picture had come to life when he met the water, he was swimming on the drawing paper at this moment. At this time, there was a thunderclap in the sky, and suddenly dark clouds were thick, lightning and thunder roared, and the sky also darkened.

Then the dragon burst out of the drawing, and grew in the wind! Then it knocked a hole in the roof and flew towards the clouds. While everyone was stunned, Zheng Yuanwai took the opportunity to escape!

Not long after escaping, it began to rain heavily. The rain was so heavy that it was like the Milky Way pouring down and the sea pouring down! In an instant, the place where Zheng Yuanwai's house was located became an ocean..... Zheng Yuan fled to a high place, only to survive!

The heavy rain fell for three days and three nights before it stopped, affecting the surrounding counties. But except for the vicinity of Zheng Yuanwai's house, the rain was not heavy. Therefore, there was no flood, but the drought was alleviated! The people of the surrounding counties were overjoyed, and God finally opened his eyes.

After the flood subsided, Zheng Yuanwai returned to his home, found several corpses near his home, and buried them all.

Because of his good deeds in the past, Zheng Yuanwai has many friends, and although he is penniless now, his reputation is good. When the time of the disaster, there will be many people to help! It didn't take long for Zheng Yuanwai to make a comeback and become rich.

After making his career again, Zheng Yuanwai asked people to look for Zhou Zijian, the scholar who painted dragons back then, but he never found it!

happened to be a friend of Zheng Yuanwai in the capital, and once asked Fang Xianlong about this person. Because the person who inquired didn't know that the scholar was called Zhou Zijian, Fang Xianlong didn't know the reason, but silently wrote down such a thing.

Today, Zhou Zijian just talked about that incident, and Fang Xianlong thought of it. So there was Fang Xianlong's previous words of inquiry about Zhou Zijian!

Luo Hongzi asked: Zhou Gongzi, did you really break the pen?

Zhou Zijian nodded and said: It is indeed broken, but the strange thing is that this piece of intact appeared in my bag the next day! As if it had never been damaged, it was really incomprehensible.....

Fang Xianlong said: Zijian, do you have a pen with you now? If you bring it with you, take it to Luo Tianshi to see what's so special.

Zhou Zijian said: I put it in the room, so I'll go and get it. After saying this, he turned around and walked out of the house, and after a while, he took out the brush and handed it to Luo Hongzi.

Luo Hongzi put the brush in his hand and observed it carefully, and after a while, he said in amazement: This is an artifact containing huge heaven and earth energy, although it is not as good as the innate heaven and earth artifact, but it is also a rare good thing!

You see, there is also a line of small characters engraved on it, although it is written in the handwriting of the ancient seal, but these words can also be distinguished.

Zhou Zijian asked: Those are four small characters, because it may be too long, and the font is a little blurry!

Luo Hongzi said: These four words are written as "Mr. Wujiao", do you know what they mean?

Fang Xianlong and Zhou Zijian looked at each other, and then shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know what it meant. Then, Zhou Zijian asked: This seems to be a person's way!

Luo Hongzi nodded and said: This is indeed a person's Tao number, if I guess correctly, this person is the famous monk "Zuo Ci" in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

.....Fang Xianlong and Zhou Zijian exclaimed at the same time.

Luo Hongzi said: It should be him! This Zuo Ci character Yuan Fang, the native of Lujiang County, and the road name Mr. Wujiao. Also known as the "Left Immortal"!
