Chapter 171 Attempt

Qin Shuang also notices that w.a.n.g Song speaks very little. Most of the time, he looks at them with a smile, but when crowd disputes, they all refer to him, then he makes a decision, and after the decision is made, everyone is convinced.

Qin Shuang is very full, since leaving w.a.n.gdu, she has never eaten such a good meal. So she is content.

"Full to bursting!" Tong Wenchao is perfectly satisfied. w.a.n.g Song says: "Junior brother Tong, full to bursting is not good for the body, a moderate state is best."

Tong Wenchao's face reveals a hint of embarra.s.sment. w.a.n.g Song doesn't say anything more, but turns to Qin Shuang:

"Qin s.h.i.+mei is so young to reach the middle realm, presumably it won't be long before Brother can see you in Cla.s.s B. Does Qin s.h.i.+mei have any plans for the future, are you thinking of just studying, or are you going to be an official?"

After hearing what w.a.n.g Song said, Tong Wenchao and Jiao Huang and others look at Qin Shuang.

Qin Shuang ponders for a moment: "I haven't decided, I may enter the Imperial Court as an official, or perhaps not!"

w.a.n.g Song shakes his head and says, "Qin s.h.i.+mei, its better to decide your purpose in life earlier, because if your purpose is different then your studies will be different."

"Oh?" Qin Shuang's expression is blank then towards w.a.n.g Song she cups her hands: "Please enlighten me."

w.a.n.g Song's expression turns serious: "If you want to enter the Imperial Court as an official, then you must partic.i.p.ate in the Imperial Exam, the Civil Service Exam, and the Court Exam. Only then will you have the qualifications to enter the Imperial Court as an official. So your future study direction is for the exams. Just focus on the content within the scope of the exam.

However, if you don't want to enter the Imperial Court as an official, just want to learn, then you should read many books, learn from many schools of thought. Master the subjects and integrate them.

In fact, both paths are not easy, if you want to balance the two its not impossible, but it will be very difficult. So I think its best if Qin s.h.i.+mei makes an early decision."

Qin Shuang immediately makes a decision in her heart. That is, read a vast amount of books, select the best schools of thought, master them and integrate them. Naturally she will not go into the Imperial Court as an official, let alone just study. She simply wants to learn Confucianism. Seek the true meaning of Confucianism and see if Confucianism and Martial Arts come from the same origin.

"Maybe I'll balance both." Qin Shuang says softly.

w.a.n.g Song is surprised for a moment, then he smiles and says: "I really didn't expect Qin s.h.i.+mei to have such ambition. Maybe in the future there will be a great Confucian among us."

"Brother w.a.n.g overpraises me!" Qin Shuang responds in a humble manner at once.

For five consecutive days, Qin Shuang goes to the Western Painting Inst.i.tute everyday to pick up garbage. This work does earn a lot of points, but Qin Shuang is unhappy. Because she finds that more and more garbage needs to be collected, and before disposing the garbage she needs to destroy the spirit nodes first. It's a waste of time, she can't even practice martial arts. She hasn't practiced once in these past five days.

Now Qin Shuang is soaking in a bath bucket, frowning, she knows she must change jobs, otherwise her cultivation will be delayed.

Suddenly, her eyes light up, she jumps out of the bath bucket, wiping her body dry, putting on her clothes and hurrying to the study. Then she takes the secret book from the demon sorcerer out and looks at it in detail. Then she closes her eyes and silently memorizes it three times. After finally confirming that she has it memorized, she goes to the kitchen, burns the secret book, and returns to her study again, thinking about the paper-cutting demon art.

The second day.

After Qin Shuang finishes her work, she hurries to the market in the eastern district and goes straight to the Spirit shop. In the shop, the two Confucians are still working. Upon seeing Qin Shuang, the guy who had once a.s.sisted Qin Shuang last time curls his lips in disdain and goes to the side to help a few Confucians. When the other guy sees Qin Shuang beckoning, he comes over and asks:

"This Junior sister, what do you need?"

"I need a spirit brush, a small jar of cinnabar, and a sheet of spirit paper."

Seeing that Qin Shuang is going to buy things, the guy is excited and hurriedly takes down the goods one by one from the shelf and presents it to Qin Shuang:

"Junior Sister, we have only two kinds of spirit brushes, divided into second and third grade. Cinnabar and spirit paper are the same. What kind of grade would you like to buy?"

"How many points are needed for a second-grade product?"

"Second-grade spirit brush needs 50 points, second-grade cinnabar needs 30 points, and second-grade spirit paper is one point."

Hearing this Qin Shuang's heart twitches. These days shes only earned 110 points in total, this purchase would cost her more than 80 points. But in order to earn more points, Qin Shuang nods, gritting her teeth:

"I want a second-cla.s.s spirit brush, a small jar of second-cla.s.s cinnabar, and five sheets of spirit paper."

The guy is immediately overjoyed, this is already a big transaction. Grinning from ear to ear he says:

"Junior Sister, wait a minute! It'll be done at once!"

While talking, he quickly packs a spirit brush, a small pot of cinnabar, and five sheets of spirit paper, and puts it in front of Qin Shuang:

"Thank you for your patronage Junior Sister!"

Qin Shuang takes out her eighty-five point card and hands it over to the man in pain. The man withdraws the points from her card and says enthusiastically:

"Junior Sister has just begun studying in the Painting Inst.i.tute, I haven't seen you before."

"En, thank you, Brother!"

Qin Shuang doesn't want to say too much, so she turns around and leaves the shop…The guy who disdained Qin Shuang looks at Qin Shuang's back with his mouth wide open, holding regret in his heart!

"How could I give up such a big fis.h.!.+"

Qin Shuang returns to her residence, entering the study, and then bolting the study door. Then she puts the things in her hand on the desk, taking out the spirit brush, cinnabar and spirit paper out. Then taking out a small bowl, pouring some cinnabar, she drips a few drops of water, and puts the cinnabar in the small bowl, stirring well. Spreading out the spirit paper, she sits in her chair and thinks carefully about the process of the paper cutting art, and calms down her state of mind.

When her state of mind is like an ancient well with no waves, Qin Shuang opens her eyes, standing up from her chair, she extends her spirit brush, full of cinnabar, and then paints on the spirit paper. In just a moment, Qin Shuang has finished painting a paper-cutting spirit man. This spirit is only the size of a palm, Qin Shuang takes out scissors to cut the spirit pattern, which looks exactly like a little paper man.

This is only the first step of the paper-cutout art. The most important step is to infuse the power of the Sea of Knowledge into the spirit pattern.

Qin Shuang sticks the little paper man between her eyebrows, and then operates her Sea of Knowledge, pouring the power out into the spirit pattern on the little paper man. Now the power of her Sea of Knowledge is still very low, unable to separate from her body, so she has to use this method.
