He and It

"Actually, for practicing paintings, the important thing is not the results, but the process." Xie Ning comforted Echidna in turn, "In the early days of learning painting, everyone's works were unseen and there were flaws everywhere, so the most important thing is , is what you can comprehend and learn in the process of painting, understand where you have shortcomings and where you can work hard to improve... these are the important things."

Seeing the demon, his eyes were still melancholy and he was very unhappy. Xie Ning patted his tail and continued: "Don't be sad. Although the picture was melted, I had a lot of fun painting it. These few hours are not in vain, at least I have accumulated If you save time for practice, you will have more experience and draw better next time!”

Echidna was listless, and he asked in a low voice: "How can you still be considered a beginner with your skills?"

"Of course I forget it," Xie Ning said with a smile, "The subject of art requires not only talent, but also practice time. I have only been in the industry for a few years. In fact, in my heart, I am not even a painter. I am a beginner. The title is appropriate and not considered self-effacing."

Now that he had said this, Xie Ning let out a long sigh and poured out some bitter water.

"Painting is a sculpture restored on paper," he said. "When you paint something, how can you draw its shape and space? This is a considerable part of the beauty...I mean the painter, the most basic and most important thing on the road of painting. It’s an important subject. For people like me who have no talent, the only way to solve this problem is to draw in large quantities and to a large extent. Until you train your intuition and turn the whole and structure into concepts that are easy to grasp, then the basic skills are in place.”

Echidna frowned, thought for a moment, and frankly commented: "I don't understand."

After the evaluation, he said very puzzledly: "Why do you always belittle yourself, Doros? I know you are talented. Even if Apollo saw your drawing paper, he would admire you. The gods are very fond of talented humans. How cruel and tolerant. In the past, Daedalus pushed his nephew Talos from the city wall out of jealousy and threw him to death. The goddess of revenge did not let him suffer harsh revenge, but only took the life of his youngest son. That was all. That’s all. In my opinion, you can’t be worse than him!”

"I'm not..." Xie Ning's voice was hoarse. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm not a genius."

This is what makes him most disappointed. He is not a genius.

The souls of geniuses are crazy, and their sensitivity, awareness, and creative enthusiasm can make a person restless throughout his life. Looking at them from the side, Xie Ning could definitely feel that talent was like a whip hanging above these people's heads, forcing them to abandon everything, work hard, and run hungrily on the drawing paper like wild dogs that were about to starve to death.

He is not a genius, he is just an art student with some talent. That little talent can just give him a pair of eyes that allow him to see the height of genius, but it cannot also give him a pair of hands and feet to climb upward.

He didn't know how to explain it to Echidna.

"You know, my painting skills were also taught by my teacher," he explained as concisely as possible. "In my school alone, there are many students who are better than me. I am not the worst, but I am also not the best. of."

"When I first entered school, I was very scared when I saw the gap between myself and others...sometimes I was so anxious that I couldn't sleep. A long time ago, there was a saying circulating in our industry, 'It depends on the efforts of many people. The level is far beyond the point of competing for talent. I was thinking, since these people already have talents that far exceed mine, how can they still work hard like this? Then what should I do, how should I live? "

"...So I practiced harder and harder, but I didn't dare to let anyone see it. I worked so hard to get to where I am now. I was so embarrassed that I didn't even know who I was competing with or who I was giving this face to. look……"

Xie Ning closed her eyes and smiled bitterly, leaning on the snake demon's smooth and hard tail.

"In the final analysis, I am still too ambitious and too greedy." He murmured, "I want to take everything for myself. When I see those talented players who can learn everything and master it at a glance, I feel jealous in my heart. ”

Despite his misgivings about much of what he said, Echidna eerily understood his emotions. Such jealousy and unwillingness were his inherent emotions when facing the gods of Olympus.

He hugged Doros into his arms and sighed deeply: "Dolos, fate is unpredictable, how can you get perfect good things? The slaves envy the citizens' freedom, the citizens envy the king's majesty, and the king can't help but envy him. The names of heroes go down in history and are immortal forever. Even I, seeing the temples and stone monuments erected in the city of Olympus, enjoying the respect and love of the world, can you say that I don't envy them?"

He looked at the depressed young man in his arms and hugged him even more lovingly, because they were a couple suffering from the same illness, clinging to each other at the moment, each with his own sorrow.

However, he still asked in confusion: "I just heard you talking about school. Could it be that the Nine Muses opened a college somewhere but didn't let me know about it?"

Xie Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "This is a secret for the time being, but I will definitely tell you in the future, I promise."

Now that he said so, Echidna stopped pestering him. They looked at a piece of white drawing paper in anguish, like two farmers staring dryly at the autumn farmland, but with no harvest.

"I will draw another one for you tomorrow," Xie Ning promised, patting his arm in a friendly manner, "I won't disappoint you."

This is really a strange, strange feeling, like a solid foundation, powerfully supporting Echidna's poisonous snake heart in the endless nothingness of the past.

"Well," Echid responded in a confused tone, his chest emitting a low rumble that made Xie Ning's back tremble, "I have you, and I won't be disappointed."

Life in the underground palace suddenly became rich and interesting.

Following his humans, Echidna studied painting materials for the first time. They studied the divine nature of the balm and analyzed how dilute it should be so that it would not dissolve the entire painting at once. Dolos held his hand and taught him how to draw the simplest rose. The boy's palms were warm and soft. Echidna did not dare to exert force at all. He was careful and treated Dolos like a snowflake falling on the tip of his nose. His fragile and beautiful priest.
