Chapter 471 Tools

After a while, Tie Hongyan looked at Wu Xunsheng’s clothes and found that they were dry. He asked him, “My eyes are not red anymore, right?”

“Not red anymore.”

“Let’s go then.”

The two men got up and left the woods.

The two of them remained silent along the way. No one else saw what happened in the woods, and no one noticed that the two of them were any different from usual.

Chapter 91

The next day, Tie Jinjue taught Tie Hongyan to paint in the old place.

“Hongyan, I was really busy recently, so I’m only teaching you how to paint today. You won’t have any objection, right?” Tie Jinjue asked kindly.

“Obviously, official duties are more important! Besides, I was recuperating recently. Although I can go out to paint, it is better for me to rest more indoors. Now that I am fit to go out, and my uncle is free, isn’t this better? What should I learn to paint today?”

“Cactus.” Tie Jinjue said.

“Yes, I like cacti! They look very pretty, and they have a variety of beautiful flowers. More importantly, they are not only beautiful, but they can also grow tenaciously in the desert. Although the growing environment is harsh, they have strong vitality!”

When Tie Jinjue heard Tie Hongyan say this, he was overjoyed: I came here to teach her how to draw a cactus today to encourage her to be strong, but she said this herself. Judging from her expression, she didn’t seem to be in a low mood.

Although he was somewhat happy to hear her say that, he did not give up and continued to talk to her about being strong, because he was not sure whether her situation was just a superficial phenomenon. He said, “Yes! Sometimes, the worse the situation, the stronger the life.”

Tie Hongyan nodded.

When he taught her to paint, he also told her something about how strong the cactus was growing in the desert. When Tie Hongyan was painting, he paid attention to her expression and felt that there seemed to be no shadow in her heart.

Seeing the cactus she painted was full of life and the flowers on it were very bright, he felt a little relieved. He said, “Let’s paint a cactus?”

“Okay!”

“The cactus is relatively round.” Tie Jinjue said as he started to draw. “Although it is not absolutely round, if it is not round enough, even if the spirit is captured, the shape will be lost. What I want to achieve is to capture both the shape and the spirit.”

“It doesn’t seem easy to me to draw a circle directly, but uncle, you are a master of painting, you can definitely draw a circle.” Tie Hongyan said.

“Haha, I use this to draw, and it’s easy to draw a circle! Things that are difficult to do with bare hands can be done with the help of tools, and this is true for drawing and other things.” After Tie Jinjue finished speaking, he took out the silver bracelet that the beautiful man who transformed into the scale beast after being poisoned by the gas threw into the sky but fell to the ground before turning into mist and disappearing. He used the silver bracelet to draw, and drew a circle in one go.

“This thing is good!” said Tie Hongyan.

“You come and try it.” Tie Jinjue said.

Tie Hongyan took the silver ring and drew a circle, and he drew it very well.

“Okay!” Tie Jinjue said this with a hint of regret on his face.

Tie Hongyan noticed that his expression seemed to contain a hint of regret, so she asked, “Is it because I didn’t draw it well? Then I’ll draw another one.” She immediately started drawing again using the silver ring.

“No! It’s a very good drawing! Your next one will also be very good.” Tie Jinjue said.
