Zhou Ruonan came to Xiaohua's office with a sad face.
And accompanying her was an elderly man.
When Xiaohua saw it, she immediately stood up and said, "Praise my Lord! Great Elder, why are you here?"
She wanted to step forward to help her, but the great elder waved her hand to stop her, "My mind is confused now, and I am not as good as before."
"But this body is quite strong!"
"Praise my Lord."
"My Lord gave Wangshan his lawful medical skills. Wangshan indeed has his talent. Now he often teaches us elders how to maintain good health. We should eat more vegetables, supplement appropriate amounts of meat, and improve our immunity!"
"You should drink milk powder often."
Seeing the elder's rosy complexion, Xiaohua didn't insist, "Sit down quickly. Is it because I'm strict with Ruonan that you're here today?"
Seeing that she was neither humble nor arrogant, the great elder smiled and said, "You, you, have been extraordinary since you were a child. No wonder everyone has said that you are the child chosen by our Lord!"
"Now that I have become a big man, I have indeed taken on a heavy responsibility. I am 70% the same as before when I had Wu!"
"That's right, I came here today because of this unfilial grandson! But it is definitely not to protect him, but to ask the 'chief' to treat him more severely, and not to be lenient at all!"
Xiaohua glanced at Zhou Ruonan.
I saw that the little girl who was just aggrieved when she walked in the door, now burst into tears after hearing her grandfather's "inhumane" remarks.
It is evident that the great elder dotes on her.
In order to give her a name and become my bishop, I would not hesitate to sacrifice my grace and blessing.
But unfortunately, now he no longer seems to be doted on, as if he has become a different person.
Xiaohua found it interesting and knew that the elder's move was the true love and care for his granddaughter.
But she was also curious about what the great elder thought of her teaching measures——
"Aren't you worried, Great Elder? If you are too strict, you will be easily broken if you are too strong?"
The great elder said: "That's why I came here to add some mixture to her piece of steel to prevent it from being too brittle and causing it to break."
Xiaohua was shocked when she heard this: "The Great Elder still knows the art of steel creation?"
The Great Elder waved his hand again: "No, no, no, I just yearn for the law. I heard the monks explain the key points of the steelmaking laws, but if I really want to operate it, it won't work."
At this point, he looked at his granddaughter, "Do you think grandpa is too strict?"
Zhou Ruonan actually nodded, "Yes!"
Xiaohua will get angry as soon as she says "hey".
The great elder interrupted with a smile, "Is it because I no longer love you?"
"Yes!" Zhou Ruonan said again, and looked at Xiaohua calmly, "But Ruonan has no complaints about the harsh behavior of the chief. The chief is my teacher, but grandpa is not, so why did he reprimand me last night?"
"It's not like I want my parents to beg for mercy!"
When Xiaohua heard this, she stopped interrupting, knowing that it was a drama between the grandfather and grandson.
Steelmaking is too pure, has high hardness but insufficient toughness, and easily breaks.
The great elder's attempt to mix things up was probably to help his granddaughter gain some family ties and clarify the truth behind them.
It's quite a painstaking effort.
The Great Elder said: "If I don't express my stance, idiots like your parents will only get worse. If I don't express my stance, will you be able to agree in your heart that you are being treated harshly by the Chief?"
"I already agree with the chief!"
"You dare to swear an oath to my lord and never have any complaints?"
"grandfather!!"
Faced with the great elder's face-to-face remarks, Zhou Ruonan chose to blow himself up.
People who believe in Jesus in the Old World often swear by God, but how many people actually abide by it?
However, in this balance, our Lord gazes and sees everything in the world.
Who dares to joke about the Holy Name of Balance?
Or try it?
Try it and you'll die.
At this point, the Great Elder got straight to the point, "I come with you to pay homage to the Chief today, both to thank her and to let you understand the reason for her harsh actions!"
Xiao Hua said: "I don't dare!"
The elder smiled and said it was okay, and continued to say to his granddaughter: "Do you know why the chief ordered you to visit each city and write reports and write down your thoughts?"
Zhou Ruonan wiped away his tears and said: "Firstly, it is for favor. Not everyone can know the reports from each city! This is the chief's trust in me!"
"Secondly, yesterday I was reprimanded by the chief, and I know the great justice, ambition and belief in the hearts of the law monks who are traveling outside."
"You can gain a rough understanding of the method of making concrete objects. You can learn from the reports in each city and broaden your horizons!"
Zhou Ruonan held out his chest and raised his head, not showing any signs of intimidation in front of his grandfather, and spoke with full confidence.
I thought I would be amazed and praised.
Unexpectedly, the great elder sneered and shouted: "Idiot!!"
Zhou Ruonan was stunned and couldn't help but shed tears. When she looked at Xiaohua, she found that the chief had the same expression as her grandfather, except for the words "idiot" superimposed on her.
"I, what did I say wrong?"
The great elder said: "If you don't understand, just ask the chief!"
Xiaohua shook her head: "Yesterday I just said a few words, but you couldn't understand it. Today, you are complacent when you come here, which is disappointing!"
The First Elder didn't mention it to Xiao Hua, so he could only speak for himself, "The chief asked you to observe the reports of each city and write down your thoughts...the key point is a 'thinking'!"
"Learn knowledge and broaden your horizons? The laws of the Temple Mount are densely packed, but it's not enough for you to learn?"
"My Lord has something to say, learn it and apply it. How to use it requires you to think about it!"
"Yesterday you told me about the chief's instructions, saying that the chief was happy because of the No. 11 Ayutthaya report."
"Do you think it's as simple as just monks having the ambition to prosper the Kingdom of God? It's because they can think, draw inferences from one example and prepare for a rainy day!"
"There is no need for my lord, the shaman and the chief to worry about you!"
"Did you know that one year ago, the Modoc people like us had not yet migrated. The witches were still young at that time, but they had to shoulder important responsibilities."
"When faced with a difficult problem, the shaman came to ask me and the elders. At first, I just thought that the shaman was young and inexperienced in worldly affairs."
"But when we solved the problem, we discovered that the strategies we proposed were not used by the shaman. The shaman put our suggestions together, checked for deficiencies, eliminated disadvantages, drew on the good, and finally formed his own judgment."
"Later I boldly inquired and got the witch's explanation..."
"This is the will of our Lord to her. Think about it in advance, think about the possibility and the impossibility, and then make the impossible possible!"
"Things in the world are not static. Just as you said yesterday, the No. 11 Dacheng Dharma monk came to report that a road should be built northward to the Salt Lake. This matter seemed impossible to you, but it was not until the chief made it clear that he ordered you to
Awakening to the future layout of the Kingdom of God.”
"But you failed to grasp the key point. The Chief is not asking you to watch what others do, but he wants you to watch the situation of others and think about what to do yourself!"
The great elder said it all in one breath.
Not only was Zhou Ruonan stunned, Xiaohua was also dumbfounded.
Xiaohua's training is actually just imitating my master and the shaman.
Serving beside my master, the shaman, and listening to the teachings, more often than not, she would get a question, and then she, Niu Shi, and Zhou Weiguo would think and discuss the answer.
The three of them brainstormed, checked for gaps and filled in the gaps, and finally arrived at the true knowledge. Perhaps there were errors and omissions before they learned the teachings of my Lord and the shaman.
But now, after hearing the Great Elder's explanation, Xiaohua truly understood the deep meaning between my Lord and the witch.
The great elder slapped Zhou Ruonan's back heavily, waking her up, "Do you understand?"
When Zhou Ruonan raised his eyes, his resentful eyes had turned into full of admiration and shame, "I understand, grandpa, Ruonan is stupid, don't be angry!"
Xiao Hua woke up, calmed down her shock, poured boiled water and handed it over, and sincerely praised, "The Great Elder is a wise man, beyond my reach!"
The great elder laughed loudly: "I have been blessed by God's grace and have a long life. I have been serving and believing in Balance for a longer time than you. Naturally, I know a lot more. But these are all empty truths, just for bluffing children!"
He drank the water and stood up straight away, "I won't bother you. Ruonan, listen to the chief's teachings and don't slack off or complain at all!"
"The chief is devoted to you and holds nothing back. This is a favor!"
After finishing speaking, he put down the water glass and said, "Praise my Lord, praise balance!"
Leave a word of praise and step out the door.
The remaining ones, one big and one small, were stunned for a moment, and then they all shouted in praise, "My lord is above!"
"If everyone in the Kingdom of God is a great elder, why worry about not being prosperous?"
"Someone is coming!"
Xiaohua made a quick decision, called the guards, and ordered the scribe to come and immediately describe and record what had just happened.
"...Think beforehand when encountering a situation, and think about what is possible and what is impossible!"
"Don't look at what others do, but look at other people's situations and think of ways to adapt."
"Well, let me add another sentence: learn from the strengths of others and make up for your own shortcomings. The good deeds of others can be the foundation of my thinking."
"After sorting it out, send it to the No. 2 city and publish it as a front-page headline, so that all people in the Kingdom of God will know the balanced teachings of the holy will and the wisdom of the great elders!"
Zhou Ruonan weakly interjected, "Chief, can you present it to my Lord and the shaman at that time, pray for the will, and record it in the "Balance Holy Scripture"?"
Xiaohua smiled, "You are quite clever! If it is included in the "Balance Bible", your name, Zhou Ruonan, will be famous forever!"
Zhou Ruonan said: "Don't mention my name, just say that I am grandpa's grandson. If grandpa can be included in the "Balance Holy Scripture", he will be very happy!"
This sentence reminded Xiaohua——
"What is the name of the Great Elder?"
"I don't know my grandfather's old name. Everyone calls him the Great Elder. But when the household registration system was implemented, my grandfather named himself 'Zhou Tushi'. The name means longing for the homeland, and it is also the budding place of the Kingdom of Balance!"
"Grandpa also said that if I die, I hope my body will be buried in the 'Tushi Valley', and my spirit will serve my Lord forever!"
"Chief, have you been to Tushi Valley?"
Xiaohua was slightly startled, but also longed for it, and said: "I will go, that's where Brother Niu Shi grew up, and Brother Niu Shi often mentions it."
Zhou Ruonan is confused, he is still young, how can he know about these "adult" things.
…
A new issue of the newspaper is published.
Sent to jail.
Today is no longer the time to read newspapers immediately.
October is approaching.
Even if Niu Shi believes in Xiao Hua and is sure of a breakthrough, he does not dare to slack off at all and devotes himself wholeheartedly to the practice of the law.
Forget about Zhou Weiguo.
His talent was not as good as the two of them, and he felt that the training process was difficult, especially since he was so busy and had no one to guide him, so he felt more and more trapped.
So he found another way, which requires talent. If you are good at calculations, you can forget about it. If you can't learn it by rote, you must master it as much as possible.
Then……
“All roads lead to equilibrium!”
"Tao is the road and the law of the great road!"
"Since our Lord has given us the laws of art, there must be a meaning!"
“Why can bull shit get points with ‘military rules’, but I can’t use ‘art rules’ with points?”
To be honest, Zhou Weiguo was already in a daze, breaking the jar and breaking the jar.
A two-year period, a criminal trial.
If there is no breakthrough, it will really be annihilated. In the face of death, it is difficult to calm down.
How did Zhou Weiguo know that our Lord was kind and merciful, but actually there was a roundabout way to get them out of prison successfully?
Zhou Weiguo, who let himself go, began his artistic journey.
Years of experience in photography have given him considerable knowledge of spatial composition.
After all, photography is about capturing the most eye-catching images and capturing the shocking and beautiful moments in the world.
In addition to my master's photography missions touring various places, he also photographed many local customs and customs in various cities in the Kingdom of God.
The wind is the steel and soot of Big City No. 6.
The soil is like the yellow sand of the No. 10 city.
Human relations are quite complicated. Most of them are Miwok people. They are the natives of Region 1. Due to the hot and humid climate, women's clothing is quite special and beautiful.
"Lao Di, Lao Di, come and see my brand new masterpiece!"
Zhou Weiguo shouted.
Didimar and the Sin King did not dare to neglect.
They have just received the Balance News and are learning "language rules" on their own. After getting a dictionary, they look for radicals and compare and learn them word by word.
The process is arduous, but the results are very good.
Language learning lies in practice, and there is nothing better than reading a newspaper. If you have two people reading aloud before, the progress will be faster.
Now, after being imprisoned for half a year, they can understand many words and make simple answers.
No more cow shit as a translator.
The two men came over with newspapers and handed them to Zhou Weiguo before taking his paintings.
Zhou Weiguo didn't read the newspaper at all, but said expectantly: "Hurry up and enjoy the comments!"
Didymar was the great maester of the Aztecs.
What he has learned is quite diverse, including arts and crafts. The so-called low-level civilization has a level of art appreciation.
It was precisely because of his arrival that a door was opened for Zhou Weiguo to practice the laws of art.
The two immediately lowered their heads to look at the painting.
After just one glance, he shouted in shock——
“Tenochtitlan?!”
“This is Tenochtitlan!!”
In desperation, they started shouting in Aztec.
However, Zhou Weiguo understood this sentence, and in the evening they had a chat and heard them talk about a lot of things about their hometown.
"Yes, yes, it's your hometown, Lake City! How about it? Does it look like it?"
Didymar and the Sin King were speechless for a long time, completely immersed in the painting.
Before I knew it, tears filled my eyes, showing my longing for him.
It was precisely this that made Zhou Weiguo very proud.
After further reflection...
He had an epiphany.
Paintings can move people's emotions, sadness and joy.
Perhaps, this is the meaning of the laws of art?
After a long time.
Didymar was the first to come to his senses and wiped away his tears, "It was me who was waiting for you... rude!"
"It's just because what my master did is really... shocking to the world!"
"How can the city in the lake be presented so realistically? It's as if the city is sealed on paper. It's incredible!"
"Even the people on the market streets are alive and well!"
"Not to mention the long embankment, dam, palace altar, they all seem to... seem to protrude from the paper, making people feel at their fingertips!"
Zhou Weiguo laughed, "Protruding from the paper? You mean geometric solids, right? I only realized it recently, and it took a lot of paper to draw!"
"These papers are created and blessed by our Lord, not produced by the kingdom of God. For this reason... Xiaohua scolded me so much in the letter!"
"However, we finally achieved something!"
The King of Sin said: "My master, you can actually put the city in the lake on paper just because of the two of us describing it?"
Zhou Weiguo smiled and said: "The descriptions you two are just supplementing your memories! The main thing is that I followed my lord and came to your city in the lake, and saw the scene of that big city from high in the sky with my own eyes."
"Otherwise, this painting would not be able to capture the entire city from a bird's eye view!"
Zhou Weiguo's paintings are realistic sketches. Because he has an understanding of photography, which is reflected in his paintings, he makes full use of the layers of light and shadow.
The earliest sketching originated at the end of the 14th century, which is more than 20 years earlier than now, but it will take more than 100 years to truly come close to the mature skills of later generations.
It was not until the 16th century that it was established as a course by the Academy of Fine Arts.
Zhou Weiguo obtained the secret book of art rules and understood the painting methods in it, and finally achieved success.
It was hundreds of years ahead of its time.
What's more important is that he does have talent in this area!
Now, with the two people praising him, Zhou Weiguo felt completely relieved and gained more confidence.
"I want to be the third person in the Kingdom of God who perfects the laws!"
