Jiang Chan packed his things early the next morning. Lu Daoxuan also gave his bookcase to Jiang Chan. Of course, it was just an empty bamboo tube. There were only two door god paintings by Jiang Chan and some leftovers.
The paint underneath.
"The paints I have are all of the best quality. If you use them sparingly, they may be enough for you to paint two paintings."
"Do you really want to leave so early?"
Although I have made up my mind, I still feel reluctant to live here for a long time.
"It's getting late. You don't even have the basic pen, ink, paper and inkstone to take the Gongsheng Examination, let alone paint. One month may not be enough." Lu Daoxuan urged Jiang Qian to leave quickly.
"I'm still a little worried about Wu Laoliu. Do you think he is dead or alive now, or not a human at all?"
"I've been traveling around the world for so many years and I haven't seen anything before. Leave it to me. You can go on your way without worries."
"Then when can I see you again?" Jiang Yan asked.
"I believe it won't be too far. You have lived in this deserted village far away from the secular world since you were a child and don't know much about the outside world. This Dao Xuan Lu contains some of my cultivation experience and cultivation insights, which may be of some use to you.
"And you have to remember that the outside world is different from this isolated town. The more money you have, the better.
Especially if you are a painter, if you want to achieve something, you must practice hard day after day. Paint alone will consume a huge amount of money, so you must learn how to make money.
Pay attention to the words you and I use, they are about ‘earning’ money, not ‘earning’ money!”
Lu Daoxuan chattered endlessly, especially the word "money" very seriously.
Jiang Gu folded the book on his waist and turned around in three steps to leave the place where he had lived for nineteen years.
And Li Youlang was about to leave Nanping Town, and the two met unexpectedly at the entrance of the village.
"Xuanguo is very big. Mr. Lu said that the outside world is very exciting. I have long wanted to go out and see it," Li Youlang said.
"What a coincidence, so am I."
Because the work they did was considered unknown, Jiang Yan and Li Youlang were each other's only friends.
Originally, he had a lot to say, but when he came to speak, he seemed pretentious, so Li Youlang took the initiative to step forward and hug Jiang Gu.
"I'm leaving, I don't know when I can see you again." Jiang Yan patted Li Youlang on the shoulder.
"I will definitely make more friends who are dying outside in the future so that I can take care of your business," Li Youlang said.
"Then I'll take it seriously."
The two looked at each other, laughed, carried their bags and left.
Not far away, Li Youlang suddenly turned around and raised his arm, as if he was swearing an oath to God.
"Jiang Zhi, I will definitely become famous all over the world!"
"I trust you"
Li Youlang was young, energetic and ambitious. Lu Daoxuan said that the fact that there are very few people who can achieve enlightenment on their own proves their high talent. As long as there is guidance from a famous teacher, it is not difficult to soar to the sky.
Li Youlang had his own ideals, but after thinking about it, Jiang Yan seemed to have no ambitions.
Before time travel, he was known as half of the Chinese painting community in the future. He was sought after by stars wherever he went, so his pursuit of fame did not seem to be that strong.
If there is anything I want to do, it is to get out of this restricted village and experience a different life outside. It seems to be an interesting thing to record all the wonderful things in the world on drawing paper.
However, the premise is that he can undo the undead curse on himself. Although he is not afraid of death, it does not mean that he is willing to die. Jiang Yan refuses to die young.
Yunzhou Qingdu City has twenty-three cities under its jurisdiction, and the closest one to Nanping Town is Lin'an City, which is only a hundred miles away.
Lu Daoxuan stood on the top of Panshan Mountain, watching Jiang Yan and Li Youlang go their separate ways. The reason why he kept urging them to leave was because Lu Daoxuan found something else here.
With his big sleeves rolled up, gray air lingered over the entire Nanping Town.
All the evil spirits in Panshan Valley have been absorbed by Jiang Yan and used for painting. Nanping Town should no longer be troubled, but at this moment, the evil spirits in the town have not diminished at all.
"What a great formation, there are not many people in the world who have such a skill!"
The evil spirit rolled towards Lu Daoxuan. Lu Daoxuan stood up with his hands behind his back and his beard and hair fluttered in the wind.
The evil spirits gathered inwardly, and a baby wearing a bellyband stepped out of the evil spirits.
Lu Daoxuan didn't panic when he saw this. He held a picture scroll outside his body to block all evil spirits a hundred feet away. There was a flash of light on the picture scroll, and a hundred-foot-long phoenix soared into the sky for nine days.
Of course Jiang Yan didn't know that such a change would happen after he left Nanping Town, and now he was on his way in a hurry.
If you want to enter the Wen Mansion, you need to go to Lin'an City to take the Gongsheng Examination. It is nearly a hundred miles away from Lin'an City. Jiang Lun has already started to feel worried even after he has gone twenty or thirty miles away.
Those who are good at making paintings and those who are good at tying colors are all hand work, while those who are good at driving are leg work. I have not traveled such a long distance in two lifetimes.
Jiang Gu sat under the shade of a roadside tree to rest. Nanping Village is located in a remote plain, and there are difficult mountain roads along the way.
"We have to think of a way."
An idea flashed across Jiang Lu's mind. He knew how to draw a painting, so why not draw a mount for himself? He checked from the bamboo tube that there was only a pen that was almost bald, and there were also very few paints left for him by Lu Daoxuan.
I originally wanted to draw a horse, but the mountains were so high and the forests so dense that I didn’t know what dangers there might be.
"If you want to draw, draw a more majestic mount."
Just do it. It's much easier to make a painting than to walk dozens of miles of mountain roads.
The ink flowed smoothly, and before long, a fat tiger appeared on the paper. It had the appearance of a tiger, a chubby look, and cute eyes. It was cute and naive, and it could also be a companion for myself.
When the cute fat tiger on the paper transformed into its true form, it no longer looked cute at all. The fat tiger was almost three feet long, had a big head, and had a round belly. He was now licking his tongue and looking at his own eyes.
"You don't want to eat me?"
Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat. No matter how cute it looked, tigers still wanted to eat people by nature, especially when this fat tiger's belly was still growling.
Now he could only place his hope in the mysterious and mysterious subordinate relationship between the painting spirit and the painting owner. After the fat tiger circled Jiang Hu for several times, he finally did not take his mouth, but jumped into the forest.
"Where are you going"
Jiang Gu followed him in the forest, but the tiger looked very chubby and moved very quickly. After a few ups and downs, it disappeared into the mountains.
Seeing the empty scroll in front of him, Jiang Yan wondered in his mind, could the painting spirit be so disobedient?
It was not until dusk that the fat tiger finally came back with a fat rabbit in his mouth.
"Brother Hu, I misunderstood you."
After setting up a fire with firewood, Jiang Gu put the rabbit on the fire. A chirping sound came from the flames, and the scent came instantly.
One man and one tiger were sitting around the fire. Jiang Yan wanted to be bold enough to touch the tiger, which was taller than him, but the fat tiger turned around and let out a roar that shook the forest.
He retracted his hand angrily, secretly slandering himself as to why he didn't draw a horse.
After eating and drinking enough, Jiang Yan put out the bonfire and found a soft meadow to sleep on.
After a peaceful night, when the first ray of light shone on his body, Jiang Yan was awakened by a vibrating sound not far away, and the scene in front of him startled him.
This fat tiger was fighting fiercely with a big python. The python had the tiger's body wrapped tightly around the ground and rolled around.
This fat tiger looked cute but was actually fierce. His sharp claws grabbed the snake and tore off large pieces of flesh, and then bit the python on seven inches.
The snake's body gradually softened, and the fat tiger began to eat voraciously. In the end, he still took a piece of meat and threw it in front of Jiang Gu.
Jiang Yan had never seen such a bloody scene before. He hurriedly shook his head and watched helplessly as a seven or eight meter long python actually entered the belly of the fat tiger!
After eating and drinking enough, the old man finally remembered the purpose of being drawn, climbed down, and Jiang Yan tentatively rode on its back.
I don't know how many days it would take to walk the seventy or eighty mile mountain road by myself. With this fat tiger painting spirit, I saved a lot of worry and effort. I rode on the back and headed straight to Lin'an City.
