Chapter Seven, This Group of National Treasures

Hmm? I looked at the carp with some curiosity

"Here, your Sprite." The carp threw the Sprite to me, and only then did I let out a sigh of relief

Can you draw? I am a bit curious, after all, Lao Huai is rather unremarkable in appearance

What an adorable ancestor!

One might say that every object has its nemesis; upon hearing this sound, the gourd ancestor shrank back as if it had encountered a cat, retreating directly behind me

I shivered; "Chi Li is going to participate in the dance competition among the contests... asking me whether I agree or not."

Oh my. The carp has already been startled, its big eyes with long eyelashes fluttering as it leans against the rice paper of the old locust tree.

The carp looked at me and said, "You see, Dulei trusts you like this."

"Why can't I?" Chi Li had a serious expression on her face, her little red dress billowing around her, and a look of confusion on her face.

They have studied for too short a time

Old Huai hesitated for three seconds, took a step back, and crossed his arms: "I have heard that you humans have some peculiar preferences..."

I immediately felt my ancestors at my waist tremble slightly, and then they whispered, "Does this count as being caught in the crossfire"

Li Taohua's pink | The delicate little arm was raised, and then a snap of the fingers was made

With the esteemed presence of the old locust tree and precious jewels before me, I am no longer worried. Whenever I think of our school, which is filled with hidden talents, I feel an overwhelming sense of beauty. Thus, I raised my head and looked at Li Taohua; "Taohua, what special talents do you possess?"

I really think you are not capable at all I shrugged my shoulders and said to Chi Li

The sunlight cascades down, and a gentle breeze caresses the hair of the carp. One side of the carp's face is exquisite and delicate, and even through the sunlight, I can see the fine downy hairs by the carp's ear

However, after waiting for a full half hour, no one has arrived, which makes me somewhat anxious. Could it be that there is no one at all

The carp seems to have sensed that I was watching her, as a blush rose on her fair face, and she coughed lightly: "What are you looking at?"

It is not enough to merely protect them from behind; in fact, they are stronger than you might imagine. What they need more is trust

Oh my goodness! What are you going to perform? I must say, Chili's outfit has truly impressed me.

I wrote the words "National Painting of the Old Huai Tree" on paper, then glanced at the carp and said, "Carp, when the time comes, find some materials on national painting for the Old Huai Tree, and we will conduct unified training then"

The carp looked down and said: "Among them, some are Wang Xizhi's brushes, some are chess pieces, yet you lack confidence... you really are foolish."

I frowned and said: "Ancestor, why don't you make a concession?"

The carp perceived my doubts and then spoke, "Although you regard them as family, you still do not trust them, do you?"

Upon seeing the expression of the gourd ancestor, I immediately understood that one must not engage in selling one's ancestors for the sake of fame and fortune

"I don't care, I want it, I want it," Chi Li pouted and said

It is only now that I realize my expectations may have been too idealistic, after all, they are monsters, and their capacity for learning is not that extensive. Moreover, this endeavor also requires a certain level of talent

The carp smiled and said: "Are you lacking confidence in yourself and the book, or are you lacking confidence in these people?"

The matter of Wang Xigua is merely a minor episode, and subsequently, the entire school is striving for the examination competition.

"Really?" the big-eyed carp blinked and asked me

Chi Li smiled, her big eyes blinking, and then she left with a light jog.

"What do you agree or disagree with?" The carp beside me, holding a bottle of Sprite, said with a smile, but for some reason, I felt that the carp's smile was very cold

A landscape painting comes to life on the paper, with majestic mountains stretching endlessly, exuding an indescribable spirit and vitality within this scenery.

The carp nodded, and then Li Taohua walked in.

I smiled and glanced at the koi beside me: "The school has entrusted me with the competition, and I feel a lot of pressure."

But in the next second, I was stunned

At the foot of the mountains and rivers, there is a small building. As I walked over to take a look, it turned out to be a small school, with the words "Monster High School" written on it.

Any master of traditional Chinese studies, I fear, may not be as genuine as they are

In fact, neither the carp nor I understand how to appreciate this thing, but there exists a unique spirit and vitality in Lao Huai's paintings

I nodded slightly and then took out my phone: "Boss, please make an announcement that anyone with special skills in music, poetry, calligraphy, or painting should gather in the conference room." Du Lei did not ask me why, simply acknowledged with a sound, and then hung up the phone.

I also nodded, finally beginning to understand

Lao Huai hesitated for many seconds this time, his face showing a shy expression: "I am sorry, I made a mistake again"

The surrounding loud music suddenly played; "On my territory... you must listen to me... harvest the music... with auditory pleasure!"

I turned my head and laughed together with the carp

"I don't care. If you disagree, just lend me your ancestors to play with for a few days." Chi Li's small eyes sparkled with a glimmer of light

Lao Huai had grasped the brush, and I was immediately filled with disappointment. He did not hold the brush in a conventional manner; instead, he gripped it with his hand, and it seemed he had not even composed the piece, but rather began to paint directly.

The words about the carp enlightened me instantly, and I understood immediately

Then I turned my head and looked at the carp. Does this mean the carp cares about me

However, despite the contradictions, it is clear that Li Taohua is not suitable. Thus, classmate Li Taohua left with a pout.

Lin Guo! What you promised me?

Suddenly, I was overwhelmed with emotion.

Then remove the rice paper and continue to paint

I nodded slightly. Then I walked into the room

Wu Daozi? I almost spat out the Sprite in my mouth, and the carp had a face full of joy. Indeed, this group of monsters is full of hidden talents.

Seeing me, Li Taohua directly spoke: "Lin Guo, I also have my own specialties"

Lowering my head, the gourd swayed at my waist, seemingly still entangled with Chi Li, softly murmuring: "I am a gourd, how can a gourd fall in love?"

Good! Very good! I clapped my hands, and immediately stood up, looking into the eyes of the old locust tree, which also burst forth with rays of light.

Looking at the gourd ancestor, Chi Li gritted his teeth and said: "I agree, but you must not go out and talk nonsense about this

The carp smiled and said, "What is the competition about?"

I suddenly remembered that the carp is also a fan of Jay Chou

Chili, dressed in a flowing red gown that trailed on the ground, approached slowly, exuding an extraordinarily enchanting aura from her figure

Trust! I clenched my fist and noted down these two characters

They are not only our relatives, but more importantly, they are our brothers and sisters, said the carp after taking a sip of Sprite

The carp looked at me and continued, "The classmates before you, the youngest among them has lived for over 450 years. The older ones have lived for several thousand years. Who could possibly understand Chinese traditional culture better than they do?"

I find myself at a loss for words, suddenly feeling completely devoid of confidence, yet still wanting to perform well

These numerous monsters are not merely students, but rather treasures!

Before I could finish speaking, Chi Li's furious voice echoed, loud enough for the entire school to hear

I smiled, not expecting that Old Huai would learn even faster

You really cannot do it. I said earnestly.

Out of nowhere, I sighed: "Being young is truly wonderful"

The ancestor of the gourd suddenly became anxious, shaking vigorously: "Lin Guo, if you betray me, I will sever our ancestral ties!"

The carp interrupted my words: "Not short."

Upon arriving at the conference room, I sat down with Li Yu and handed him a small notebook, preparing for him to take notes shortly.

Lao Huai hesitated for three seconds before speaking: "I came to write and draw"

Old Huai thought for a moment: "In the past, an old man with the surname Wu painted under my Huai tree. I glanced at it a couple of times and at the illustrations in the book."

Then Li Taohua immediately began to dance to the rhythm. It must be said that this indeed exudes a modern flavor, with every move and gesture radiating vitality. However, this is our ancient Chinese culture, after all

It is none other than Lao Huai who has arrived. I looked at Lao Huai and said with a grin, "Lao Huai, what brings you here?"

Of course it is true, I smirked.

A night of fish and dragon dance

I lifted my head in excruciating pain, but was instantly stunned.

Old Huai? Why don't you give it a try? I asked as I nodded towards Old Huai.

I watched as Lao Huai wrote without moving, and then I cautiously asked Lao Huai, "Lao Huai, what is wrong with you?"

It is as if, upon a glance, a gentle spring breeze caresses your face, refreshing your entire being and invigorating your spirit!

"The four arts: qin (stringed instrument), chess, calligraphy, and painting, as well as poetry and song." I blurted out.

For instance, the day after Fatty and Wang Xigua finished their ice cream, Chi Li came to find me

However, in just a blink of a few seconds, Lao Huai set down his pen and let out a sigh of relief

Li Taohua has a very fashionable appearance and is one of the students who integrates into human society quite quickly. She is dressed in a set of Korean-style clothing, and her peach blossom eyes smile like crescent moons. Coupled with her slightly reddish hair, she is truly a little princess.

Bang bang. Finally, someone has arrived, and I feel a surge of energy. I look at the newcomer.

Thinking of this, I looked at the carp beside me

I directly interrupted Li Taohua; "Taohua, you need to embrace traditional culture. Moreover, you are quite outdated. Nowadays, everyone is following my left hand and right hand in slow motion..."

Before I could finish speaking, the carp beside me became displeased and slammed the table, saying, "Who says Jay Chou is out of date?"

Indeed, how could I have forgotten this? I suddenly exclaimed, slapping my forehead.
