Chapter 10 Good things are coming, the way of wisdom

"Brother, fourth brother! I wish you a cup, congratulations on your breakthrough in cultivation!" In the evening of the next day, Zhang Xiaofan opened a pot of homemade "Bamboo Leaf Green" and fryed a few side dishes, and invited Song Daren and He Dazhi to his room to have a small gathering.

"Happy together! Happy together!" Song Daren and He Dazhi drank all his joy in his heart.

He Dazhi gave Zhang Xiaofan a thumbs up: "If you want to break through your cultivation, the junior brother broke through to the second level of the Yuqing Realm in just over six months! Except for Junior Sister Ling'er, he is more powerful than us senior brothers!"

"I have to thank Master, Master's wife for your guidance, and all the senior brothers' care!" Zhang Xiaofan continued with a smile, "Brother, Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, I would like to pay another cup of respect to you, congratulations on your good deeds!"

Song Daren drank it all over again, and then wondered: "My junior brother, what is the saying that good things are in pairs?"

"Does I have to say this clearly?" Zhang Xiaofan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Song Daren and He Dazhi and his waist. "You have never seen your sachet before. The embroidery of the 'Mandarin ducks playing in the water' on the sachet of the eldest brother seems to be a good thing. When will you become a Taoist partner with Senior Sister Wenmin? The sachet of Senior Brother Fourth is a 'Bamboo Leaf Heart-to-Heart' pattern. Senior Sister Luo Yinger finally completely accepts the 4th brother!"

Song Daren and He Dazhi saw that Zhang Xiaofan had guessed that they were all men and did not hide them. They held the sachet in their hands and looked at them and rubbed them. They were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

The three of them talked and laughed for nearly an hour. The three of them knew the reason to stop at the right time. Even if they were happy, they would not completely indulge themselves, so they were ready to disperse themselves.

Zhang Xiaofan looked at He Dazhi's mind and suddenly said, "Fourth Senior Brother, I have an immature suggestion, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Young junior brother, I just said it's okay!" He Dazhi said curiously, and Song Daren also stopped after hearing this.

"I heard that the fourth senior brother was taken to by his master and was a scholar who was well-read in poetry and books? I wonder if he took it seriously?" Zhang Xiaofan asked.

"It's true! I dare not say that I have read poetry and books well, but I have studied hard for many years, but I failed the test... Alas!" He Dazhi smiled bitterly and shook his head, as if he was still quite concerned about this matter.

"I asked this not to make the fourth senior brother sad about his past. But because the magic weapon refined by the fourth senior brother is "Jiangshan Pen", and he is well-read in poetry and books. Now that he has reached the fifth level of the Yuqing Realm, it is not easy to make another breakthrough in a short period of time. Why not use the Painting to understand all things in nature and the true meaning of the wonderful Dharma!" Zhang Xiaofan did not go around the circle and said directly.

"The way of painting!" He Dazhi thought when he heard this.

"No, isn't the magic weapon of the fourth senior brother 'Jiangshan Pen' suitable for painting? Use 'Jiangshan Pen' to draw a great country, and use 'Jiangshan Pen' to point out the country!" Zhang Xiaofan said.

"Not bad! Not bad! This is indeed a good way!" He Dazhi's eyes gradually became energetic, and the slightly drunken smell of alcohol disappeared, and his expression was very excited.

Zhang Xiaofan took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and He Dazhi immediately splashed ink. His basic skills in calligraphy and painting were very solid. Even though he had been wasted for decades, his works were still remarkable.

Although Zhang Xiaofan was not good at painting in his previous life and did not know how to write brushes, he had listened to several French painting enthusiasts in nursing homes to discuss it.

So, Zhang Xiaofan told He Dazhi some of the theoretical concepts he knew.

He Dazhi has solid basic skills, agile mind, and extraordinary intelligence. He has a good talent in calligraphy and painting. He quickly understood many of the techniques and theories taught by Zhang Xiaofan and began to write and integrate them into his own painting style.

Half a month later, He Dazhi, who was messy with hair and a slack beard, rushed into the kitchen early in the morning and danced at Zhang Xiaofan, shouting: "My junior brother, thank you so much! Thank you so much! Your method really works!"

"Senior Brother Fourth, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Xiaofan was shocked by He Dazhi's image. Is this the original gentle and elegant fourth brother?

He Dazhi noticed Zhang Xiaofan's eyes and then suddenly realized that he returned to the room. A quarter of an hour later, the clean and tidy He Dazhi appeared again, and his emotions had returned to normal. He smiled and said with a happy smile: "The 'cursive calligraphy' and 'ink-splashing landscape painting' mentioned by the younger brother is very consistent with Brother Wei's style!"

Speaking of this, He Dazhi straightened his chest proudly and coughed softly, "In the past half month, Brother Wei has already mastered these two skills, and his cultivation level has improved rapidly during this period!"

Next, He Dazhi began his alternative cultivation path, practicing "crazy cursive calligraphy" and "ink-splashing landscape painting". The majestic Dazhu Peak, the black bamboo forest in the back mountain, the flowing water in the mountains, the flowing clouds in the sky, the sunrise and sunset, and the bright moon in the galaxy all became the best materials for He Dazhi to splash ink.

One of the works "Bamboo Waves", which ranks one of the "Six Scenes of Green Clouds", is made of a black bamboo forest on the back mountain of Dazhu Peak painted with the technique of "splashing ink landscape painting".

Even Su Ru was full of praise when she saw it, feeling that He Dazhi had finally found his "Tao". As long as he could study this Tao carefully, his future achievements would be limitless!

Su Ru even took He Dazhi to Xiaozhu Peak and asked Master Shuiyue to allow He Dazhi to observe the "Moon-looking Platform" one of the "Six Scenes of Qingyun" on Xiaozhu Peak, to paint for him, and to improve his understanding of the way of painting.

Master Shuiyue didn't want to agree, but after seeing the painting "Zhu Tao" brought by Su Ru, he agreed to her request. The only request was that He Dazhi would need to keep the most perfect "Looking at the Moon" in Xiaozhu Peak in the future.

Being able to gain such recognition from Master Shuiyue shows that He Dazhi's painting method has achieved some success!

"Clam!"

"Crazy!"

"Clam!"

"Crazy!"

"Clam!"

"Crazy!"

...

There were waves of chopping and chopping sounds coming from the black bamboo forest, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, with unique and regular sounds of chopping, as well as the violent swaying of "black-section bamboo", and the sound of bamboo branches and leaves swinging, both of which were one and had a unique charm.

Zhang Xiaofan waved a machete in his hand, and even chopped four "black-joint bamboos" in front, back, left and right at the same time. He felt the recoil force from the blade and mediate his own strength and steps.

At the same time, Zhang Xiaofan watched all directions and listened to all directions, always paying attention to the rebound trend of each "black-joint bamboo", almost instinctively avoiding the counterattack of the four "black-joint bamboos", and mastering the best angle and strength to chop with the trend.

Others seemed to be very slow in their movements, but they were always able to avoid the four "black-joint bamboos" that were so wise that they could avoid the lightning-like counterattack.

In just over half a year, Zhang Xiaofan has actually mastered the profound and profound meaning of "slow to fight fast".

Nearly an hour later, Zhang Xiaofan increased his strength with satisfaction, "Du!Du!Du!Du!" The four chops were almost indecisive, and accurately chopped on the axe marks at the roots of the four "Black-joint bamboos".

With the four "black bamboos" falling to the ground at the same time, Zhang Xiaofan's homework has been successfully completed today.

"The bamboo shoots in the kitchen are almost finished. I will dig some fresh bamboo shoots later. I will have a pot of well-received 'pickled bamboo' tonight. Even the rhubarb will be greedy!" Zhang Xiaofan looked around at the machete.
Chapter completed!
