Chapter 478: Asking for Words
"Uncle, what are you writing about?"
Li Ping'an was blowing the wind with Lao Niu outside the courtyard, and when he saw his uncle walking in, he couldn't help but ask.
"Prepare to write couplets."
The old man wrote a few words, but he was not very satisfied.
Suddenly he remembered, and turned his head to look at Li Ping'an, "Can Mr. write?" ”
Li Ping'an nodded, "I can write some." ”
"I don't know if Mr. would like to leave a painting of ink."
"It's not a calligraphy, it's just a few words."
Li Ping'an walked by the table, looking at the few big words posted on the door frame, and faintly felt that it was a bit exaggerated.
So spread out the paper and press it with a paperweight.
Glancing at the ink ingot, it seems that the ink is not very good.
But he didn't say much.
With a pen in your hand, wet it with water first.
Let the scales on the hair completely open, and then dip it in ink, and the ink blends.
Doing so will also make the nib more ink-retaining and write more smoothly.
"What kind of couplet?" Li Ping'an asked.
"Blessed."
Li Ping'an thought for a while,
Pen.
Shanglian: Heaven and earth are gentle and add wealth
Downlink: Safe and well-wished
Horizontal batch: Four seasons safe
The old man has read the book, and he studied the words carefully for a long time, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the handwriting was beautiful, as if he was in a painting.
"What a good writing, sir."
"Passing the prize."
"Have you taught before?"
"Taught."
When Li Ping'an was in the four towns of Anbei, he did work as a teacher.
Later, when he traveled, he also worked as a teacher in a village.
The old man put the words neatly and neatly.
was cheeky again, and asked Li Ping'an for a word.
It is said that it is to be pasted on the stone pillar at the entrance of the town, and the two pillars are pasted with couplets all year round.
Originally, it was written by an old scholar in the town, but the old man left the year before, and now there is no one in the town who can write well.
The next day, early in the morning.
Li Ping'an went out early, and heard from the old man that there was a set in the town.
So he took the old cow to drive the big set.
At the set, he handed over the materials he had bought from the merchant to the tailor and asked him to make a cheongsam.
I bought some other gadgets, although they didn't have much effect, but they could relieve Li Ping'an's boredom.
After buying enough of what he needed, Li Ping'an and Lao Niu said goodbye to their husband that afternoon.
Before leaving, the old man enthusiastically brought Li Ping'an a lot of food from home.
Sausages, soybean paste, and a food called "glutinous".
It is very similar to that of the Great Sui, which is to stir-fry the rice and noodles and then add water and mash them.
Then knead it into pieces and let it dry, like a pot, this kind of thing is easy to carry and very resistant to storage.
It's just that the taste is hard to describe.
Serve it with sausage and bean paste.
When they arrived, Li Ping'an and Lao Niu left.
"Alas, so many things for an outsider!"
The old man's daughter-in-law muttered discontent in the outhouse.
The old man just pretended not to hear it, still smiling, and waved at Li Ping'an.
The daughter-in-law said even more violently: "I don't know what to think, as if that person is his own son, so good to an outsider, so many things..."
The old man turned around and went back to the house.
.............
Small town.
Yin Si, the city god batch is written with documents.
In this remote town, there isn't much to do every day.
Some demons will not pass by such a place where birds don't poop.
It's basically a few trivial things, and after that's done, you can go to tea.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly frowned.
Well?
After lunch, the old man took his little grandson to the two large stone pillars outside the town.
The couplet written by Li Ping'an was neatly pasted on the big stone pillar.
I looked at it carefully for a while to make sure I wasn't crooked.
"Grandpa, that's a pretty word."
Although the child didn't know anything, he also knew that the word looked so beautiful
"When the doll grows up, she will also write such beautiful words!"
The old man touched his little grandson's head.
One old and one young, walked back.
Night.
In the distant mountains, there are figures flickering.
There was a sound of shaking from underground.
"Buzz!!"
The animals sensed the anomaly, and some birds quickly moved away.
The tiger, which was eating food slowly, rushed to the trunk of the tree next to it with lightning speed, and went up the tree in an instant regardless of everything.
In the town, the chickens also fly, and the dogs also bark,
Soon, the villagers in the town also felt the change.
They all walked out of the house, their faces full of doubts.
What's going on? What happened.
"Boom ——!!"
The residents of the town also stopped to watch, and every face had a look of surprise and a rare look.
No one knew who was doing what, and the whole village was in a panic......
"Look!!"
Someone yelled.
The ground in the distance was rapidly cracking, and the rift was stretching wildly.
There was a dangerous smell in the air, a tight, sharp air pressure that seemed to cut a person into pieces inch by inch.
The rocks blown by the wind shattered as if it had come out of nowhere.
Then there was a loud "bang", the stones shattered, and the dust flew.
In an instant, it was as if a white mist was rising.
There was the sound of some animals screaming.
"Run!!"
At this moment, Chenghuang, who discovered the situation first, had already fled with his men.
He didn't know why that kind of demon would come to such a place where birds don't, but he was sure he would never be able to stop that guy.
Now all he can do is report the matter to someone who can handle it.
Although they don't know what the situation is, everyone understands that this is a disaster that is about to sweep the town.
Something seemed to be moving rapidly underground, leaving a deep gully in the ground as it passed.
At this moment, the old man who was still at the entrance of the village and his little grandson were the first to suffer.
Tonight, in the evening.
When he had nothing to do, he thought about taking his grandson to see the painting again.
Who knew that as soon as he walked to the gate of the town, he encountered this kind of thing.
The wind seemed to be about to tear his body apart, and the old man protected his little grandson in his arms.
It was only then that he saw clearly what was rushing towards the town.
It's a giant ....... Centipede??
When my husband was young, he heard that a passing demon ate the entire village in one bite.
At that time, he thought it was just a rumor, but now ........
The trees all around were down, but the two pillars with couplets stood at the entrance of the town.
With a loud roar sounded.
