"This has nothing to do with religious beliefs, this is just the life experience of people who have been there."
Mrs. Sakai smiled.
"Boys in love, even if they say sanctimoniously that they are pursuing platonic spiritual love, they are still thinking about those things in their minds. When they really go to bed, their hormones are satisfied, and their passion is gone. The tide will slowly start to recede.”
"You are beautiful. But the husbands of Hollywood actresses often cheat. Being too willing to give will make you cheap."
Mrs. Sakai poked her daughter's cheek: "It's better to wait a little longer. What they think about day and night but can't get is the best goddess that has always made his heart itch."
"I'm not that... slutty..." Sakai Katsuko's voice was as subtle as a mosquito's buzz.
"Of course my daughter is not a slut."
Mrs. Sakai shook her head and picked up the small black box on the side.
"I give you this just because I trust you. I believe that Shengzi you have the ability to control the progress of your relationship. I just want to say that girls are naturally at an emotional disadvantage. I may not be able to say what I want. It sounds nice and politically incorrect, but the reality is that your status in the eyes of men is different whether you have a virgin or not.”
"You know, according to tradition, Princess Diana was tested for her virginity before she was allowed to marry into the British royal family, right?"
"I remember that my mother always hated this news. She thought it was an exploitation of women's sexual rights." Sakai Katsuko nodded slightly and said doubtfully.
"As a woman, I certainly abhor this tradition."
Mrs. Sakai shook her head and said disdainfully.
"If I were interviewed by a reporter today in a public place, I would definitely regard it as an insult to women from a feminist perspective. By the way, I would also scold the British royal family for being such a slut. Anyway, I am not in the Commonwealth. All of this What era is it, and there are these damn medieval-style rules.”
"But this is not a TV interview. I am telling my daughter my life experience from the perspective of a mother. At this moment in this room, I don't care about the right or wrong of values. I just hope that she can avoid some detours."
Mrs. Sakai put her arms around the girl.
"So, I can't say anything to you here, sister, just love boldly. Why can men be romantic playboys, but girls don't have the right to sleep with whoever they want? Even if you show mercy, you can sleep with them I have had the same boyfriend and had five abortions, but you are also the most beautiful version of yourself."
Mrs. Sakai said quietly: "This is what should be said in the emotional column of a women's magazine, not what a mother should say. I would be more willing to tell you another truth."
"Once you have slept with him, your value will be devalued. If you date other boys in the future, whether you have slept with others or not, your weight in his heart is completely different. Even in the most open Latin America, the original male The child will regard you as a rare treasure. If you have another abortion, you may become an ordinary beautiful skin."
"You can only have your first night once, and you want to leave it to your MrRight (the most suitable husband)." Mrs. Sakai said.
"So you have to know how to say no. Even if Gu Weijing doesn't care about you, you have to hold it yourself. If he really loves you, you should ask him to consider it for you and respect you."
Sakai Katsuko listened quietly.
"It's not that I'm not optimistic about your future and what I think you will do in the future. It's just that in addition to love, life also requires reason. Preserving value for yourself means giving yourself more room for choice in the future." Mrs. Sakai said softly: "Do you understand? ?”
"Um."
Sakai Katsuko hummed slightly.
"Okay, that's all I need to say. I don't necessarily have to ask you to wait until after marriage-"
Mrs. Sakai loosened her arms around her daughter and stretched slightly.
"When Shengzi truly believes from the bottom of his heart that the boy next to him is the one destined to be in your life at a certain moment. You believe that you and him will spend a lifetime together, and you feel that even if he abandons you in the next second, You don't regret loving him at this moment. You have enough courage to bear everything he brings to you, whether it is happiness or sadness."
"Then whether it's a kiss or applause for love, it will be a beautiful thing that will make people grow old ten, twenty or fifty years later and still smile from the heart when they recall it."
Mrs. Sakai finally patted her daughter on the head.
He stood up and prepared to leave.
"Go take a shower and take off your makeup before going to bed, otherwise it will be bad for your skin." Mrs. Sakai ordered.
"Mother?"
When Mrs. Sakai walked to the door, she was stopped by her daughter again.
The blonde woman turned sideways: "What's wrong?"
"Well, um, mom, is it true that I didn't put on my makeup well today?"
Sakai Katsuko raised her head slightly, her face still flushed, and asked uncertainly: "Is the painting ugly?"
"Well, as far as makeup skills are concerned, it's actually a little clumsy and needs more practice... but it's enough to charm boys."
Mrs. Sakai looked at the girl's cute little face like a red apple and smiled: "Who told my daughter to be naturally beautiful?"
…
The rain has stopped,
The water on the roof is still dripping down the eaves.
Gu Weijing pushed open the bedroom door and sat in front of his desk, with the warm light of the desk lamp shining on him.
After a busy day,
Gu Weijing is not sleepy yet and looks a little dazed.
His fingers seemed to be able to feel the warm and delicate temperature of the girl's skin, and the faint fragrance of Miss Sakai's hair remained on the tip of his nose.
When a girl says she likes you in your ear, it is an indescribable and wonderful feeling.
Today, when he is about to turn eighteen, Gu Weijing officially confirms his relationship and bids farewell to being single.
His girlfriend is still a beautiful and outstanding girl like Sakai Katsuko. He is proud of himself and even has an unreal dreaming feeling.
After being lost in thought for a moment at the table,
Gu Weijing suddenly remembered that he still had a system reward that he had not received yet.
He opened the virtual panel,
Then I saw an intermediate treasure box waiting to be collected on the inventory. It was the reward for copying "The Old Church on a Thunderstorm" with a similarity of more than 50%.
"Well, intermediate treasure chest, I hope it's a skill, I hope it's a skill..."
Gu Weijing muttered a few words in his mouth first, then clicked to open the intermediate treasure chest.
Previously, the primary treasure chest had yielded oil painting experience points and various knowledge cards, but it had never yielded skills that could be used directly.
So far,
Any skill provided by the system can be called a magical skill.
Maybe it was because of his thoughts, or maybe it was just a coincidence. As he opened the intermediate treasure box, a skill card really jumped out of the treasure box.
Gu Weijing opened his eyes slightly.
He found that the appearance of this card was a little different from all the skill cards Gu Weijing had seen before.
[Active skill: Muse’s Blessing Candle]
[Quality: Excellent (one-time skill, disappears automatically after the duration expires)]
[Equipment requirements: no special requirements]
[Special Effect 1 (Inspiration): Under the illumination of the goddess candle, your creative thinking will be more active, your mood and environment will be integrated, and it will be easier for the creator to pour his emotions into the work. 】
[Special Effect 2 (Art Blessing): You can choose one or more system skills or painting techniques. After using the skill "Muse's Blessing Candle", under the illumination of candlelight, you will continue to receive a certain degree of positive gain improvement. The level or quality of the painting technique you choose will increase by one level.
The duration of this skill varies depending on the proficiency level of the original skill you choose. 】
[Skill introduction: Muse (Latin: Musae), one of the legendary goddesses with endless artistic talent, the patron of artists, is also the etymology of the spelling of music, art, intelligence and other words in English.
Throughout the ages, the level of painting techniques expressed by great artists in their works is not entirely equivalent to their current painting skills.
Great painters will produce poor works that are substandard due to illness, aging, and perfunctory work, or they will temporarily reach their unprecedented artistic peak due to chance and extraordinary performance, as if with divine help.
With the blessing of the goddess of art, the short-term miracle born under the painter's pen is better than the results of countless long and perfunctory artistic creations.
In the art world, it is customary to call such precious moments the muse moment. 】
[Remarks: His paintbrush can touch all things, just like the muse coming in person, and with the help of the painter's hand, spreading the brilliance of art and beauty to the world - "Selected Poems of Rabindranath Tagore"]
"The candlelight blessed by the Muse? It can actually affect the painter's painting state and enhance his inspiration..."
Gu Weijing watched this skill.
Painting is very particular about inspiration.
The feeling of creating with divine help is a very mysterious state of painting, but it is real.
Lu You once wrote a poem, "Drinking is like a long whale sucking the river, thinking is like thirsty and running bravely into the spring." This describes the wonderful feeling of thinking like a spring under the blessing of the artist's inspiration.
In the field of painting,
When you feel right, you may be able to complete a work in an instant, wherever your feelings, pens, and paintings are.
When something doesn't feel right, painting is like dragging an old donkey over and over again, and I can't figure out what to draw after fussing for a long time.
But how to find the right feeling is difficult.
It often requires the artist's passionate emotions and keen observation of life.
For some people, being inspired requires traveling around the world to collect scenery, go sailing in the Mediterranean, go to glaciers to see the snow, and go to the grasslands to see thousands of horses galloping.
For some people, all it takes is a bird chirping in the peach blossom forest, or a ray of cold moonlight suddenly hitting their face.
at the same time,
There are still some idiots in the world who will stupidly [beep--] think that the method of obtaining artistic inspiration is equivalent to the effect of taking a psychedelic mushroom or chewing two ecstasy pills and other neurohallucinogens.
They rolled marijuana, coughed white powder, and put LSD (neuropsychedelic drug that can be ingested through the skin) stickers on their foreheads, claiming to have mastered some kind of shortcut to painting.
They mistakenly equate the state of being high with thinking that they have endless creative inspiration.
In fact, it is just empty dream talk, meaningless fragments of thinking.
The blessings these people thought they received from the gods were nothing more than a moment of joy brought about by the brief weightlessness of their souls as they fell deeper into the dark abyss.
The inspiration of art and the pleasure of drugs,
Perhaps the two look similar on the outside, but they are just the relationship between genuine pure gold and the equally golden-looking Fool's Gold.
Even if you don't consider the life that will be reduced to a puddle by addicts.
Psychedelic drugs can hardly bring about real inspiration, not even the dregs of inspiration.
Drugs may make the artist's brain become too hot, leaving only some crazy and confused lines at the end of the paper.
true inspiration,
It is more similar to the freehand combination of mood and environment that ancient Eastern Xia painters pursued when creating.
When the court painter Bian Wenjin of the Ming Dynasty painted cranes, he had the habit of bathing, changing clothes, and drinking and eating with the cranes for three days before he started painting. Zheng Sixiao, a great painter in the late Song Dynasty, would weep for his motherland every time he painted ink-colored orchids, wailing bitterly, and integrate the resentment of his country and his family into the orchids he painted.
These great painters are not doing some avant-garde performance art.
Their actions are to pursue the inspiration of painting and to explore the inner understanding of the moment of creation.
These heavy and deep emotions can never be replaced by neurological drugs.
"Not only can it bring creative inspiration, but it can even temporarily improve your technical skills by one level!"
Gu Weijing looked at the [Special Effect 2] of this skill card.
This skill special effect can temporarily improve his skill level within a certain period of time.
This function is more concise and clear.
From a functional point of view, compared with the inspiration effect without knowing the specific effect, it seems to be more practical.
"It's a magic weapon for exams. Alas, it's a pity that Myanmar doesn't have a unified joint art exam like Dongxia or Japan. Otherwise, if it is used in this kind of exam, it will easily be able to perform exceptionally well."
Gu Weijing thought.
The technical level shown on the painter's picture is not necessarily equal to the artist's real painting skill.
He is an art student who has just entered the field of professional painting.
Basically, the level of each painting is almost the same, almost a reflection of his current experience in painting techniques.
The level of the first-level profession is drawn as the first-level profession, and the level of the second-level profession is drawn as the second-level profession.
At most, the data displayed after painting is a few or ten points higher than the skill level on the virtual panel.
This is mainly because,
His current painting level is still quite basic, and the range of fluctuations is not large.
The master who stands higher,
The difference between the upper and lower limits of the fineness of the work is even greater.
Especially for artists whose creative style is more painting-like, the technical level of their works often changes from good to bad due to some external reasons.
The brushstrokes of some of Picasso's works are so perfect that they can be called masterpieces among masterpieces.
Some of them are really poorly drawn.
