Chapter 1179 A Strange Calm

??As soon as Chi Shuyan said that, Chen Jin and Old Yu choked and coughed non-stop. Their eyes widened in disbelief at the fact that she still dared to sell talismans. Old Yu, in particular, was really stupefied at how this student was fearlessly selling these talismans to him. He didn't know what expression to use with this student in front of him, nor did he know whether to lecture her ruthlessly or praise her for being gutsy.

??While the two teachers were feeling dumbstruck, Chi Shuyan took out a talisman, pressed it on the teacher and said, "Teacher Yu, I can give you this talisman first. As for the money, we can talk about it when we get back to school!"

??With that, Chi Shuyan turned around and left.

??After Chi Shuyan left, Chen Jin and Old Yu finally came back to their senses. The two simply looked at each other with wide eyes.

??They didn't know what to say.

??Old Yu's eyes almost popped out of his head as he stared at the talisman in his hand. This student still dared to scam him? Wait, no, that wasn't the most serious thing. Who on earth had brainwashed this student?

??Thinking this, Old Yu's face was very solemn.

??Chen Jin took a few more looks at the talisman in Old Yu's hand and remembered the ones which Old Zhang had given to him. At that moment, he took out a few of them. Old Yu's eyes widened. After taking a closer look, he realized that these talismans were exactly the same as the one which the student had given to him just now. He was immediately astonished. "Where did you get these things? Old Chen, you believe in these too? You also bought them from that student? How much did you spend?"

??If Old Chen had really bought these things and believed in them, Old Yu didn't know what to say!

??Chen Jin didn't hide anything and said directly, "These talismans were from Old Zhang!"

??Old Yu: …

??"Wait, Old Chen, I did see that Old Zhang really does have a few of these talismans on him. Where did Old Zhang get these talismans?" Old Yu's eyes widened and he looked at Chen Jin. The two of them suddenly looked at the back of the young lady just now. Wait, Old Zhang hadn't been brainwashed by that young lady, right?

??Chi Shuyan didn't know how much bewilderment her talismans had caused the two teachers. While everyone was busy, Chi Shuyan prepared to familiarize herself with the surroundings and see if there were any abnormalities.

??The scenery in this area was really good. There were green mountains all around. The river was very clear and there were many flowers around. Because it was also in a remote area, it was very quiet.

??However, this strange calm made Chi Shuyan a little uneasy.

??At that moment, students were scattered all along the river. They set up easels and boards and started drawing seriously. While everyone was busy, Chi Shuyan walked upstream.

??Not long after, she saw a familiar cave mouth upstream.

??There was no one at the cave mouth, but there were many people on both sides of the river. Everyone had easels and boards as they drew. Chi Shuyan stood above them, staring thoughtfully at the very calm and clear river water from time to time, and at the metal sign on the side which said 'North Bridge Mountain.'

??Chi Shuyan felt uneasy when she thought about how she had chased that thing here last time and it disappeared. In short, no matter how beautiful this place was, Chi Shuyan didn't have a good impression of it.

??She turned around and saw the cave entrance behind her. She was about to retrace her steps, when she heard a voice behind her. "Shuyan, this way! Over here!"

??Chi Shuyan turned her head and saw a beautiful girl waving at her. Who else could it be but Ji Mingshu?

??Yu Bo's easel and board were next to Ji Mingshu's. Seeing that the two were quite close to the river, she frowned slightly. She couldn't be bothered to investigate the cave mouth, and strode over to greet the other party.

??Compared with Chi Shuyan's aloof nature, Ji Mingshu was obviously very enthusiastic. She asked Chi Shuyan if she wanted to draw. If she was interested, she could try it out on Ji Mingshu's drawing board.

??Chi Shuyan was about to turn her down, when Chen Jin walked over. A closer look revealed that the expression in his eyes was still a little complicated, but he didn't pursue the matter. Instead, he said, "Don't you like drawing? You can give it a go! Why don't you draw a simple apple first? I'll also see if you have talent!"

??Chi Shuyan: …

??Seeing that Teacher Chen wasn't joking, Chi Shuyan opened her eyes wide and was about to refuse, but Ji Mingshu also enthusiastically sharpened the pencil for her to draw.

??Chi Shuyan felt a sense of foreboding. She just wanted to track a ghost, but why was she standing in front of a drawing board with a pencil in her hand?

??She then saw the gentle Teacher Chen look at her kindly and expectantly.

??Chi Shuyan could only put aside other matters for the time being and draw something like an apple first. Knowing that Ji Mingshu and Teacher Chen meant well, Chi Shuyan was as serious as when she was drawing talismans. After pondering for a while, she started to try and draw an apple.

??To be honest, she was indeed interested in drawing, but after this attempt, Chi Shuyan once again deeply understood one thing: Even if you were interested in something, it didn't mean that you had the talent for it. Just because she was good at drawing talismans didn't mean that she could draw.

??When a strange-looking apple appeared on the drawing board, Chen Jin wasn't the only one who frowned. Ji Mingshu and Yu Bo also looked at each other and coughed non-stop. They had no idea if Shuyan was drawing an egg or an apple.

??For artists like them, there would still be a huge difference between an egg and an apple, but the apple which Shuyan drew was simply no different from an egg; at most, it was just a lot bigger than an ordinary egg.

??Chi Shuyan looked at the apple on the drawing board seriously and was somewhat satisfied. She put down the pencil and said, "Teacher Chen, I'm done!"
