Chapter Forty-Nine: Drawing the Tiger from the Cat

Today is November 8, 2014 and we are at home in City D.

I'm practicing drawing talismans on my desk in the study in the space. There was a lot of white paper scattered on the table. I hold a brush, dip it in ink, and use the concentric trick to channel the aura in my body to the tip of the pen. Then, with a wave of it, I drew a light talisman. Looking at the talisman I had just drawn, I sighed, but it didn't work out again. My runes are very standard, but they can't be used, and the patterns in the runes don't have aura.

That's the problem with my current drawing, now I'm just just drawing cats and tigers, and I can't find a way to integrate the aura into the patterns I draw. The talisman drawn in this way is a painting, without any mana.

I looked at the messy paper on my desk and sighed. I don't think I have any talent for drawing talismans!

I cleaned up and threw all the waste paper in the trash. There were few blank sheets of paper on the table.

"Old ginger, there's no paper." I ripped my neck open and shouted outside.

If I didn't know, I thought I didn't have any paper in the toilet.

After a while, Jiang Zhi entered the study with a neat dozen cut papers. When he saw my face, he knew that I hadn't succeeded in drawing, so he put the paper in his hand on the table and hugged me.

"I'm tired, come and sit down and rest." We sat down on chairs, "Don't stay in the study all the time, you have to practice sometimes!" "Jiang Zhi very much disagrees with my way of learning.

"Do you think I'm not suitable for learning to draw talismans, why have I practiced for so long, and I still can't draw a single one?" I was distressed and depressed. I studied on my own, and I didn't have anyone to ask for advice.

"Who said that, how good you are drawing, the book says that not everyone can draw such complicated and cumbersome runes. Look at you, when you draw talismans, you can do it with one stroke, and you are more fluent than the masters. And each one is very well drawn, exactly like the one in the book. Jiang Zhi was afraid that I would be discouraged, so he tried his best to comfort me. I know that in Jiang Zhi's heart, I really think that what I draw is the best, and I can feel Jiang Zhi's thoughts.

"What's the use of that, no matter how good the drawing is, it's useless and it's waste paper." I said deflated.

"You're just in too much of a hurry. Isn't it that seeing that my paper cutting is getting better and better, you are in a hurry. Jiang Zhi teased me.

"Yes, I'm afraid you'll think I'm stupid, I'm useless, and you'll dump me." I cooperated with Jiang Zhi and learned the tone in the sketch.

Ever since I started practicing drawing symbols, I've been practicing on a blank sheet of paper. Jiang Zhi is responsible for cutting the A4 paper into 4 parts on average. At the beginning, he used a knife to cut, and his force was uneven, and the paper was rough and of different sizes. I buried him, and Jiang Zhi began to practice his sword technique diligently. After practicing for a few months, plus a few years in the space, Jiang Zhi cut the paper as evenly and neatly as a paper cutter, and also practiced a unique skill, throwing the white paper into the air, brushing two knives to cut the white paper into the same 4 parts, this is the inspiration of the Hong Kong gambling king, let me have a good worship.

Jiang Zhi practiced his divine knife skills because of cutting paper for me.

After that, our exercises have reached the fourth level, and we can use the aura, Jiang Zhi tried to make the aura into an invisible knife, and began to use the aura to cut paper. The process was hard and the result was beautiful.

Now Jiang Zhi can already master the use of the aura knife very well, and he can kill people invisibly like a martial arts master.

"Okay, don't practice, your talisman has been drawn very well, now the main thing is to find a feeling, to find a method. You can't just use your hands and brains. Jiang Zhi pulled me up from my chair. Let's go home and cook now. ”

We came out of the space, and there was still silence in our home.

"Hanhan, why haven't they come back yet?" It's November now, and if November in the Northeast is already very cold under normal circumstances, you should wear sweaters and pants. But it's still hot outside, and I still wear half-sleeves at home. When I got out of the space, I looked for the remote control of the air conditioner.

"Isn't this that my parents just paid their salaries, and when that little salary is spent, they will come back." Jiang Zhi walked into the kitchen, looked through the refrigerator, and studied today's dishes.

"Our parents are really fashionable, they have all become moonlight clans." In the past year, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother have been like this, as long as they have a pension, they will immediately go out shopping with Hanhan, and when they will spend all the money, they will complete the task.

"It's not Hanhan, I checked my collection yesterday and found that Shaqima was going to eat it, so I took my grandparents to buy it today." Jiang Zhi took out a big carp, "Let's eat boiled fish today, right?" ”

My son doesn't go to kindergarten anymore during this time, and he runs with Jiang's father and Jiang's mother every day.

"Okay, just eat boiled fish, put more peppers and vegetables." I walked into the kitchen and made a chair to accompany Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi started cutting cucumbers and carrots on the cutting board. His current knife skills really don't say that after a meal, the sliced cucumber and carrot slices are like a mold printed.

I quickly reached out and stole the cucumber slices while Jiang Zhi was chopping vegetables, and threw them into my mouth to chew. He couldn't stand it and drove me away.

"You called Hanhan's grandparents and asked them to come over for dinner, so don't fire at home."

"Okay, got it." I walked to the sofa and called Qu's father and mother, asking them to come over for dinner.

As soon as I put down the phone, the door opened. Hanhan rushed in and shouted when he saw me, "Mom, I'm back." ”

I looked at the three people who came in carrying six bags of things in their hands, and hurriedly got up from the sofa and took the things in Jiang's mother's hands.

"Mom, you're buying so many things." My tone was delightful.

"That's a lot, you don't look at the people in the supermarket, you can't push it away, we can't squeeze it, we buy a small amount, those people are like things don't want money, but they pull into their hands." Jiang's mother was still not satisfied with the amount of her loot.

Everyone is frightened by the drought in the summer, and this summer, most parts of the country have been affected by drought of varying degrees. D city has also been affected a lot, water and power outages, supermarket goods shortage, the only few supermarkets that are open to sell goods are also very expensive, a bottle of 500ml mineral water can be sold for 10 yuan, that has to be purchased in limited quantities.

Most people are either short of water or without food this summer, and they do suffer some torture. So, by now, the temperature has dropped, and the supermarket has made up for the goods, so there is no reason not to buy it.

"Mom, I've also helped with things, I have a lot of strength." Hanhan hasn't put down the two big plastic bags in his hand yet, just to show me his strength.

"Son, you're awesome, you can help grandma carry such a heavy thing at a young age." What I have always done to my children is to educate them with appreciation.

My son has been cultivating with us every night, and after more than a year of cultivation, Hanhan's height has grown a lot, and his strength has become greater.

"Of course." Hanhan gladly accepted my compliment, "But Mom, when are we going back to that home in the mountains?" ”

"What's the matter, son, we've only been back from there for more than a month, and you want to go back." We spent the summer in Tashan Village, and in September, when the school opened, we took Liang Chen and Wang Qian back to D City.

"Well, it's not good here, I want to go to the mountains to play." Hanhan doesn't like D city, he doesn't have any friends to play here, his brothers and sisters have gone back to school at his home, and other children have gone to kindergarten, he is very lonely.

"When grandpa comes to dinner, you can ask grandpa when he will go back to the mountains." I didn't know when I would be able to leave, so I pushed this problem to Qu's father.
