Chapter 189
[You have just entered the world of mortals, you have no long-term possessions, you only have one skill. 】

[So I used my finger as a brush, the ashes of grass and trees as ink, and the bark of white trees as paper, and painted with people in the market of Chongyang. 】

[You are skilled, and you don't take a penny, which attracts people to stop. 】

[A painter surnamed Li came to hear the news and marveled at your painting skills, and invited you to Chongyang Painting Workshop to exchange skills. 】

【You readily agreed, but said that you would come to visit the next day. Painter Li was puzzled, and replied that there is a beginning and an end. 】

[Returning to the painting in the market place, the sun sets and the people leave, and the painter Li is amazed. 】

Painter Gu, who came all the way from Kunzhou, has exquisite skills, extraordinary conversation, and outstanding temperament.

This kind of person, no matter what they do, they will naturally be looked at highly by others——

He used plant ash and tree bark to paint in the market place, and he didn't even use a pen. Is it because he couldn't afford the pen, ink, paper and inkstone?

Of course not!
Obviously, he is traveling the world, painting all kinds of sentient beings.

This kind of behavior is to get closer to the common people in the market, and to immerse yourself in the world of mortals, which is an art in itself!
His behavior of insisting on painting until the sunset has verified Li painter's idea.

This is a top painter who has reached the peak of his skills and is traveling the world in search of a breakthrough.

Communicating with such characters, even if it's just a few words, may be able to make yourself a step further!
This is his chance!

The facts also confirmed his idea.

The next day, when he saw this painter Gu again in the painting workshop and talked with him, it seemed that he had returned to the time when he first learned painting, and he was facing his late teacher.

In a few words, he suddenly understood.

In one morning, the gains obtained far exceed the previous years, and it will take a while to digest——

You know, knowledge itself is extremely valuable.

Even if a master teaches a disciple, it often requires many tests.

Painters of different genres regard their own skills as treasures, and show cold eyebrows to those who covet them.

Comparing with this tireless teaching Gu painter, it's a matter of opinion.

Painter Li felt emotional and stood up to salute.

"Thank you, Master Gu, for your suggestion."

Master Gu?

Suddenly, Jiang He recalled the scene when he visited Cailang Painting Workshop and learned the art of brushwork from Master Yan. He laughed for a moment, and raised his hand to support the painter.

"When I was learning painting, Master Yan taught me everything... Now I'm just exchanging skills. Brother Li is too polite."

Painter Li's thoughts did not change because of a few words.

He still treated him with respect as a teacher, but he was fascinated by what Jiang He said.

"To be able to teach someone like Master Gu, I really want to meet the Master Yan you mentioned."

Jiang He originally wanted to say that it was impossible, but then he thought of Yuling World——

During the Meng Dynasty, Yan Qingliang, a master painter, was already famous, and he taught the magic method to the miraculous painter, and his status rose even higher.

He was also summoned to the world of imperial spirits and became a heroic spirit.

Then he changed his mouth and said.

"If brother Li continues to immerse himself in painting and become famous all over the world, he may have the opportunity to meet Master Yan."

"Is it famous all over the world?"

Painter Li kept this matter to himself.

Although it is a bit whimsical, but who has studied painting for many years, who does not have a dream of being famous all over the world?

[You visited Chongyang Painting Workshop and impressed many painters. 】

[In just a few days, Gu Shi's name spread throughout Chongyang City, and there was an endless stream of people who came to ask for paintings, and there were also neighboring painters who came to visit. 】

【The value of the painting is also rising steadily under the admiration of the crowd. 】

[Three days later, a painting of thousands of gold. 】

[However, you only painted five paintings, and then announced that you would leave Chongyang City and continue to travel. 】

[Before you left the city, you only purchased a few supplies, and the rest of the money you earned from painting were scattered among the common people without any money. 】

[Chongyang painter knows why you are penniless, sigh, what a strange person. 】

[You are on the road from the city, and only a few miles away, someone comes to you, but it is Li Painter, who only brings a painting scroll and a brush holder, and comes lightly. 】

[Qiyan was born in Chongyang and grew up in Chongyang. Now that he is standing in the middle of his life, he knows that the world is vast when he meets Master Gu. He wants to follow you, travel together, and paint the world with his pen. 】

Jiang He's goal in Chongyang City has been achieved.

After collecting the painting suits and laying the foundation of reputation, there is no need to stay forever. You can set off to the next city to find a chance to save people from the Buddhist temple.

As for the money earned from painting for others...

As long as you become famous, you can make money by painting at any time when you are short of money.

With one skill, one is worth a thousand dollars!
Distributing wealth to the people is not only a good thing in itself - even if it is not much distributed to each family, but for those who are really poor, it is also a timely help.

It can only solve a temporary crisis, and that is also a solution to a crisis.

And it can pave the way for helping others in the future and grabbing business from Buddhist temples.

Jiang He was a little surprised by Painter Li's choice.

He is not a monk, nor is he a warrior. Meng Tong studied painting and is now in his thirties. The farthest places he has been to are only nearby cities.

Such an ordinary painter, but in the past few days of conversation and contact, he has longed for the vast world and made the decision to leave everything behind and travel the world.

How difficult this is for an ordinary person who has never left his hometown.

At this time, he sat on the horse and said nervously.

"Master Gu, my wife died early, and I didn't marry a wife later. Although I didn't have any children, I still have an elder brother to carry on the family line."

"I have also bid farewell to my parents, and I will leave most of my savings. I won't have any worries and will never be your burden..."

Jiang He saw that Painter Li was not out of a whim, but a decision made after deliberation for a long time, and said.

"It will be very hard."

Painter Li understood the meaning and said seriously.

"I've been practicing how to paint with plant ash and bark, but I'm not very skilled with my fingers...can I use willow branches?"

"Haha, yes!"

Jiang He laughed and rode away.

Painter Li flicked his horsewhip, and followed the unrestrained figure closely.

[You promise Li Painter to go on the road with him. 】

[He is a native of Shuzhou. Although he has never been far away from home, he also knows a little about all parts of Shuzhou. 】

[By knowing the way, you rush to the border between the two states of Shu and Kun. 】

[Eating and sleeping in the open along the road, also living in Taoist Buddhist temples, or living in villagers' homes. 】

[When you meet a country or town on the road, or set up a stall at random, and paint for the people you pass by, no matter how high or low your status is, you will not get a penny. 】

[Or go to a wealthy mansion, splash ink on the feast of delicacies, paint like dragons and snakes, paint what you see along the way, paint the wonders of the world, and paint a thousand dollars. 】

[Until leaving the city, all the money is gone, and I go on the road lightly. 】

[Because you follow your fate, paint according to your fate, come and leave lightly, your reputation gradually rose in Shuzhou, and you were called a painter of fate by the people you met. 】

[Painter Li has been influenced by his ears and eyes, and his painting skills are getting better and better. 】

[Of course, compared to painting Taoism, the change of mood is even more serious. 】

[Luo calendar March 1970, [-], the twenty-sixth day of the good month. 】

【You and Artist Li went to Fushan City. 】

【After entering the city, you learned from other people that there were disaster victims who fled from Kunzhou a few months ago and received relief from Fushan Temple, and now most of them have returned to Kunzhou. 】

[Only Xiao Ban has nowhere to return to because of his family's ruin and death. He also admires Buddhism and stays outside the temple. 】

【You know in your heart that most of the people who leave will not escape bad luck. After sighing, you want to draw gold in Fushan City and try to lure the remaining people away. 】

[However, when I acted, I ran into an old friend by chance. 】

【You were in the teahouse and saw Gu Yuerong talking with a strange woman, her face was worried, as if she was in trouble. 】

【Seeing this situation, you decide to...】

[A: Take the opportunity to recognize each other, B: Turn a blind eye, C: Wait and see what happens, D: Intervene personally]
