Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 64 Selling Paintings for a Living
Yuzhou City

Li Ming strolled leisurely in the city with his parcel on his back. After a round of shopping, he came to a relatively prosperous area. He unwrapped the parcel and took out the old calligraphy and paintings inside and put them in order.
"Famous ancestral paintings are on sale, don't miss it when you pass by"

The immature yelling made the surrounding people interested. They all looked at Li Ming's booth, and couldn't help talking about it when they saw the young Li Ming.

"Oh, this world is getting more and more chaotic"

He sighed and shook his head, but he didn't step forward. After all, it's just a struggle to survive the troubled times.

Li Ming didn't care either, and after yelling, he stopped making a sound, and wrote a pair of ancestral calligraphy and paintings on the ground with charcoal, and then the old god was sitting on the ground, but he didn't dislike the dirt on the ground.

For a while, there were more and more people watching, but no one stepped forward, obviously shocked by the price.

Facing the pointing crowd, Li Ming's expression remained unchanged, and he sat on the ground calmly. He didn't want to sell his calligraphy and paintings cheaply. One hundred taels was considered a low price.

Soon among the crowd, a middle-aged man in elegant clothes stepped forward
"Little brother, I wonder if I can observe it"

Li Ming opened his eyes, looked at the Confucian scholar and nodded
After seeing Li Ming's promise, the middle-aged Confucian scholar took a painting from the booth and slowly opened it. Ben's indifferent eyes gradually began to change as the painting unfolded. When the painting was fully opened

Confucian scholars only feel a sense of tranquility rushing towards their faces. In the painting is the vivid Qingcheng Mountain. Surrounded by undulating peaks and verdant trees, it depicts the secluded artistic conception of Qingcheng.

The onlookers are also whispering to each other. Although many of them don’t know calligraphy and painting, they can still feel the artistic conception of the most secluded place in the world when they look at the picture of Qingcheng Youjing, but they can only watch from a distance because of their cash

The middle-aged Confucian scholar could not take his eyes off, but he was intoxicated, but he admired the painter when he watched it. He looked at the Taohua Sanren at the place where the signature was signed, but he racked his brains and couldn't remember which famous artist it was, so he looked at it expectantly. Li Ming asked:
"Little brother, I don't know who this Peach Blossom Loose Man is"

Li Ming looked at the Confucian scholar who couldn't put it down, and after moaning for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth: "Peach Blossom Sanren was a hermit on Peach Blossom Island in the East China Sea during the Zhenguan period. As a gift to my ancestors"

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, and the middle-aged Confucian scholar realized in vain after listening to it, took out the silver from his pocket and put it on the booth, and carefully rolled up the Qingcheng Quiet Picture

Then he looked at the remaining few paintings, Li Ming put away the silver and weighed it, nodded in satisfaction, and let Confucian scholars open the remaining three paintings again
The strange and dangerous pictures of Huashan Mountain, the pictures of colorful peach blossoms, and the pictures of witches and gods

Li Ming looked at the last picture of a demon girl bewitching God, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he took the wrong one in a hurry

The people around stared at the picture of the demon girl bewildering the gods with wide-eyed eyes, all showing obsessive expressions, as if a red-haired and charming woman danced in front of her eyes, surrounded by blossoming petals.

The Confucian scholar also fell into obsession, but he was a persevering person, but he quickly woke up, rolled up the picture of the demon girl bewitching the god, threw out the money bag, turned and left in one go.

The corner of Li Ming's mouth twitched but he didn't stop him. He put away the two sets of calligraphy and painting and began to close the stall. The young man squeezed through the crowd with the parcel on his back and walked away slowly. Several people in the crowd had eyes flickering and followed quietly.

Li Ming paused, and then went shopping as if nothing had happened to purchase supplies. Since he had visited Yuzhou City before, he purchased the supplies in a short while. A child carrying a backpack taller than an adult made passers-by unable to resist come to strange eyes
Li Ming didn't care about the eyes of passers-by. He walked out of the city gate slowly with his clinking backpack on his back, and walked along the path in the quiet woods. After walking for a while, he saw several people blocking the way in front of him.
"Little devil, drop everything and run for your life"

A man with a sultry face opened his mouth first, with a big knife in his hand on his shoulder. He was obviously the leader. Li Ming rolled his eyes but ignored them, and continued walking unhurriedly.
This move annoyed the few people for a while. After the leader greeted them, they swung their knives and slashed at Li Ming. The knives struck at the deadly place. Seeing their proficiency, they obviously did this more than once.

Li Ming flicked his fingers lightly, several bursts of energy pierced through the air, they felt a pain between their brows and then a surge of warmth, and their bodies slowly fell to the ground.

Li Ming didn't even look at the steps of the few people who stepped over the corpses and walked along the path. The footsteps were already ten feet away, but they disappeared without a trace in a moment.

After a long time, a figure appeared next to several corpses. He squinted at the corpses on the ground, and looked thoughtfully at the direction where Li Ming left. On his handsome face, 666 with a brow was extremely conspicuous. He was dressed in a red shirt and white clothes. The painting is full of densely packed words, and her long light golden hair is bundled up, but she is unrestrained and unrestrained.

The visitor opened the scroll in his hand, and what caught his eyes was the picture of the demon girl bewildering the gods, and a flash of light flashed in Hou Qing's eyes
“It's good quality”

After saying that, he moved his feet and walked slowly towards Yuzhou City, with a graceful posture.

Li Ming, who was walking, paused at his feet, and then walked again. Li Ming had already noticed that the master was following him, but he didn't expect the other party to follow here and left. It seemed that the other party had no malicious intentions, so he ignored it.

In the depths of the southwest of Mount Qingcheng, a figure flickered in the mountains and forests, one step at a distance of ten feet, as if teleporting, but after a while, it came to a delicate bamboo house

Li Ming stepped into the bamboo house and put down the big bag on his back. After sorting out the supplies and putting them away in different categories, he looked at the bamboo house that looked like a home. On the reclining chair, Mi raised her eyes to bask in the warm sunshine, her mind sank into the sea of ​​consciousness and contacted the enlightened jade

A cool breath surged into my mind, I comprehended the Tiangang Jue, and confirmed it with the Great Compassion Fu, and all kinds of martial arts spirits flooded my mind for a while

When the mind was exhausted, he started the Tianzi Wangqi Technique, his eyes were shining with gold, he recovered and exercised his mind, and then began to explore the entrance.

While Li Ming was practicing, in a quiet bamboo forest outside Yuzhou City, Hou Qing couldn't help but straighten his expression when he saw the red-haired woman approaching slowly.
"Surrender, I haven't seen you for decades. Why did you ask me to come to Yuzhou City?"

The surrendered minister paused with a gentle smile, but he thought of that nasty little devil again, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, although it was only for a moment, Hou Qing couldn't help but shudder.

The vassal showed a sympathetic smile
"I want to ask you to help find someone interesting. I wanted to find Yinggou, but she didn't know where to go, so I had to find you."

Hou Qing was interested, but he didn't know who could make the surrendered minister care so much. Hou Qing studied everywhere and was naturally good at finding someone, so he didn't refuse the surrendered minister's request.

Listening to Jiangchen's description, Hou Qing couldn't help but recall the boy who sold paintings in Yuzhou City, looking at Jiangchen with strange eyes
The surrender is not because he wants to eat tender grass

"Surrender, please take a look at this painting first."

After finishing speaking, he threw the picture of the demon girl bewildering the gods to the surrender, and the surrender accepted the painting suspiciously, and the veins on his forehead couldn't help popping out after opening it.

In the painting, there is a beautiful red-haired beauty who is flirting and dancing, surrounded by pink petals, like a stunning witch who charms the world, and the artistic conception of bewitching and charming the world is revealed from the painting
