Zhong Nanshan is deserted, and the lonely lamp of the cabin is like a cold star.

Li Changqing bathed in the bright moonlight, and he didn't feel lonely with green mountains, insects, birds, and small squirrels as his company.

The early morning sun shone on the mountain road, and the leeks in the field shone green.

After harvesting leeks, Li Changqing went directly to Lijiaao Primary School to lead the students to read in the morning, and there were more listeners than before.

The villagers thought that reading was far away from them, and gradually some of them followed the children to read in the morning.

Leeks were also quickly snapped up, and some people who rushed over did not buy them.

After Li Changqing finished reading, he stayed for a while, and became the shopkeeper and handed over all the school affairs to Meng Yuncheng and Shen Ruolin.

Staying in the mountains for a longer time than when he went to the county to sell vegetables before, Li Changqing cut some leeks and took them to the chicken farm to feed the chickens.

Sure enough, some of the chickens were missing, and only a few dozen remained.

Li Changqing checked the barbed wire fence around the chicken farm again and found no new holes.

There are many kinds of traps to catch weasels, and Li Changqing decided to make a wooden box.

Back at the cabin, Li Changqing took out the cowhide bag given by Li Dajiang and prepared the wood.

Make a wooden box with a length of one meter, a width and a height of only a dozen centimeters, and the two ends of the wooden box are live gates.

Drill a shallow hole in the middle of the back of the gate, and carve a line groove in the center along the length of the box on the outside of the wooden box cover. Drill a small hole in the middle of the trunking, then tie small round nails at both ends of a meter-long string, hang an 80-centimeter-long string in the center of the rope, hang a small hook made of iron wire at the bottom of the rope, and hang the bait on the small hook.

When the weasel comes to steal food from the box, it touches the small round nails of the two gates and leaves the gate.

The gate droops on its own, locking the weasel inside the box.

Li Changqing made more than a dozen wooden boxes in three hours and buried them at the entrance of the soil cave of the chicken farm.

He also restored the environment of the cave entrance to a normal state, and left only when he could not see anything abnormal.

When Li Changqing was resting in the cabin, he remembered his idea last night.

The bamboo branches are tall and slender, slim and elegant, verdant in all seasons, and the frost is proud of the rain.

It is loved by Chinese people, and it is one of the four gentlemen of 'Meilan Bamboo Chrysanthemum', and it is called "Meisong Bamboo and 'Three Friends" of the year.

Li Changqing thought about planting a circle of bamboo near the cabin, wouldn't it be beautiful to have a world in the vast sea of bamboo?

Carrying a hoe and a firewood knife pinned to his waist, he climbed Zhong Nanshan again.

There are many kinds of bamboo in Zhongnanshan, and generally speaking, bamboo can be classified as clumping bamboo, scattered bamboo, and reed clump bamboo.

No one grows reed bamboo in the yard, while loose bamboo grows rhizomes that spread to other areas.

Clumps of bamboo will grow in highly dense conditions and rarely spread to larger areas.

In contrast, planting jungle bamboo near the log cabin is not only more in line with the mood of the poem, but also does not damage the living environment.

The bamboo forest near Xiaoshitan is a clump of bamboo, but Li Changqing doesn't want to spoil its poetic beauty.

It is also very important to choose the bamboo to transplant, and the best bamboo is one to two years old.

At a distance of 25 cm to 30 cm from the bamboo, dig up the soil to find the stem.

Then he cut off the handle of the pole with a wood knife, dug it up with soil, and planted it in the pit that had been dug behind the face of the hut.

Li Changqing found a suitable jungle bamboo on the mountain and transplanted it to both sides behind the cabin.

Watering some spiritual water to ensure its survival rate, Li Changqing watched the fruits of his labor.

Bamboo swayed in the breeze, and elegant shadows shrouded the quiet windows.

Flocks of birds flutter in the sunset, and baby squirrels roll from the hillside into the bamboo forest.

Showing two big teeth, he kept screaming, and he was very excited.

Li Changqing smiled and looked at the scene of the little squirrel playing in the woods, and sighed that this scene was suitable for the painting!

Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum has always been a favorite subject of Chinese painters, and the four different styles of representative works are collectively known as the Four Gentlemen of Chinese Painting.

Among them, bamboo is extremely common, but there are very few who can really draw bamboo well.

Li Changqing has been studying Chinese painting in the inkstone pond for a long time, and for a while he wants to depict the bamboo forest of rats playing in the sunset.

From the wooden house, he took out a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and sandwiched the white rice paper on the wooden frame he made.

In terms of technique alone, the bamboo pole is tall and tough, and the general stroke follows the root to the tip.

From bottom to top, or from top to bottom if the pole hangs upside down.

Hold the pen slightly on the side and draw it section by section, the pen is full of ink when the rod is fired, and the branches and leaves are gradually weakened.

There are obvious setbacks at the beginning and end of each stroke, such as the femur and humerus, and the two ends are slightly thicker and thinner in the middle, leaving room for the branches and leaves.

There are two common formats of bamboo slurts, one is the 'eight' style, which is named according to the shape.

The other is similar to the head of the word 'crown', which is coherent with a pen, and the ancient score is called dragonfly eye or bird belly.

The point of view of the expression method of the word 'crown' is lower than that of the bamboo joint, which makes the bamboo pole seem to be tilting inward.

The bamboo pole is slender, the line is more emphasized, the speed is faster, the strength of the pen is expressed, and the bamboo branch is in a state of mutuality.

Generally, the bamboo node grows two branches together, and the other section grows branches in the opposite direction, left and right are staggered, and the old spectrum has the saying that 'the branches are divided into left and right, and one side is not allowed'. The thin rod and twigs do not draw knots, they can be abbreviated, the lines should start and end with a frustration, and the joints are joints, and if they are confined to the subsections, they will be trivial.

But it is not a simple matter for Li Changqing to depict the scene of the little squirrel playing in the jungle bamboo and the bamboo shadow reflected in the cabin.

Before starting to write, Li Changqing was engrossed in observing the changes in the bamboo when the breeze blew.

Then use your fingers to measure how long the bamboo knots are, and then remember how dense the bamboo leaves are.

When he had a bamboo in his heart, Li Changqing began to write.

From bamboo knots to bamboo branches and bamboo leaves, add a small wooden house as a foil, and use small squirrels to add the finishing touch.

A picture of a squirrel playing in a bamboo forest jumped on the paper!

Li Changqing once found the authentic experience of Deng Banqiao, one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou, on a bamboo tree in the bamboo forest.

Deng Banqiao had a special love for painting bamboo all his life, and once wrote a poem for 40 years.

For 40 years, he has painted bamboo branches, and he has written thoughts during the day and at night.

Redundant and thin, painting to raw is cooked.?

The painted bamboo is divided into three realms: 'bamboo in the eye', 'bamboo in the hand', and 'bamboo in the heart', focusing on the life of bamboo.

Li Changqing's picture of squirrels playing in the bamboo forest reflects the characteristics of 'life' by echoing the bamboo forest, the cabin, and the squirrel.

As long as the 'life' of bamboo is reflected, the god of bamboo will naturally come into being!
