Chapter 314 Even Old People Love Watching Videos
Wenwen looked in the direction her grandfather was pointing.
The letter ended with: "For details, please see the 'moving portrait,' which is with Wenwen. After seeing it, you will know everything."
Wenwen understood.
My uncle really makes the most of things; he truly understands the principle that a picture is worth a thousand words.
The animated portrait is obviously from the video she filmed!
Her Aipai De (a video platform) contains a lot of videos, including clips of everyone living in the valley, clips of a few children playing with chickens and fighting dogs, some explosive clips of people practicing magic, and even a video of Wen Qiyuan failing to forge a weapon. It's a wide variety of videos, funny, heartwarming, exciting, embarrassing, and many more. Each video is just a short segment, not long enough to give a comprehensive overview.
In addition to videos of daily life, there are also landscapes filmed in the Yanqian Mountains.
Finally, there's the video containing evidence related to the Luo family.
Now that her grandfather has asked, she needs to figure out what they want to see.
"Grandfather, a moving portrait means one that has both images and sounds. What would you like to see about?"
Grand Tutor Zhou said first, "Let's look at the matter concerning the Luo family first."
"Okay!"
Wenwen answered cheerfully, "Since we have the means, let's fulfill the old man's request. Watching videos is always better than reading those boring thick books."
Wenwen tapped the screen a few times, found the folder containing videos about the Luo family, and opened it.
The video begins with the discovery of weapons and gold ingots hidden by the Luo family.
Several elderly people huddled together, their eyes fixed on the small screen on the table, their ears listening to the video. They hadn't had time to study the device yet; their attention was entirely on the video content.
The evidence Ren Zuan gave them was all on paper, written data and letters, without any direct experience. Now, seeing this video, with the images presented before their eyes, they realized the sheer number of weapons and gold ingots, how magnificent they were, and how great the visual impact was.
After all the videos about the Luo family had finished playing, the room fell silent.
No one spoke.
After a long while, Grand Tutor Zhou finally spoke: "Yanzhi, go and make the arrangements first, then come back when you're done."
"Yes, Father, but..."
Zhou Yanzhi was clearly reluctant to leave, and after some hesitation, he finally mustered the courage to speak up.
“Father, the fourth brother said in his letter that there is a portrait of his son. I’ll take a look before I leave.”
Wenwen dared not act on her own initiative, and only opened the video of Master Zhou's youngest son after obtaining the approval of Grand Tutor Zhou.
"Hello everyone, I'm Zhou Jiarui. I'd like to introduce a new member to our family, my younger brother..."
The video begins with Rui Rui introducing her younger brother, followed by scenes of children playing, and finally shows several children running and jumping wildly in the valley.
Of course, at first Wenwen taught her older siblings, but in the end, they were better at playing the video game than she was, without her teaching them. Luckily, they didn't play it every day, otherwise they would have gotten addicted and she wouldn't have been able to provide it!
The video, which lasted just over a minute, ended quickly, and Zhou Yanzhi reluctantly left the courtyard.
"Father, I've made the arrangements."
"Go on, go on." Grand Tutor Zhou changed his posture, looking very interested. "Is there any more? Let's take another look."
Wenwen opened the home video and played several videos of daily life. The videos included clips of her grandfather planting trees, vegetables, and herbs with everyone, as well as clips of her grandmother weeding and picking fruit with the women, and even clips of her great-grandfather playing games with several children.
Throughout the video, the two elderly people frequently expressed various exclamations of amazement.
"Ah, this is good, this is nice."
"Look, that's not bad either; moderate exercise is good too."
These videos present a peaceful and idyllic life. The smiles on people's faces and their words and actions show no signs of the exile they are living in the northern desert. There is no sign of suffering or hardship.
The excitement in the eyes of the two elderly people was palpable.
Grand Tutor Zhou asked, "Is this the valley mentioned in the letter? Do you have a portrait of the entire valley?"
Wenwen mentally gave him a thumbs up: As expected of the Grand Tutor, his questions were very insightful.
A panoramic view of the valley—isn't that just an aerial photograph?
Yes, of course we have eagles. Taking aerial photos of the valley is no problem at all.
Wen Chengbin excitedly replied, "Yes, yes, yes, little sister, hurry up and open it, hehehehe."
Wenwen and Wenchengjian exchanged a smile. This video was filmed by Wenchengbin. In order to make it look good and be well done, Wenchengbin bribed Cangying quite a bit. He couldn't even remember how many demonic beasts he owed Cangying.
The aerial video of the valley is very beautiful. After all, the original appearance of the valley is like a fairyland. There is no artificial restoration. It is all in its original state. At most, there are bamboo courtyards and bamboo houses built by them later.
Unfortunately, at the end of the video, there was a shot of Wen Qiyuan refining a weapon.
He had just finished making a flying sword, which was gradually growing larger, and Wen Chengbin captured this moment in a photograph.
The video ends here.
Ren Zu'an and Grand Tutor Zhou looked at each other.
What shocked them even more than the surprise of seeing the entire valley was the last shot.
Grand Tutor Zhou was so excited that his beard stood on end. He pointed to the last frame of the image and exclaimed, "How did you do that? Cough, cough cough."
Ren Zu'an quickly reassured him, "Old Zhou, don't get agitated, don't get agitated."
It looked like Grand Tutor Zhou was about to cough something bad out of him.
Wenwen remembered the task her teacher had given her before she left the valley. She hurriedly took out a letter and handed it to Grand Tutor Zhou. “Grandfather, this is what my uncle asked me to give you. Don’t get excited, read this first.”
Grand Tutor Zhou took the letter, read it quickly, and then spread his hands, "Anything else?"
This time, Wenwen took out a stack of manuscripts. The manuscripts were very thick, comparable to the thickness of a book, even thicker than the books she had just given them.
This book contains the Qi Refining Manual, as well as some insights on cultivation written by Master Zhou. There are all sorts of things here, one after another, page after page, and the total thickness is more than ten times that of the manual.
Finally, there is one more list.
After reviewing the list, Grand Tutor Zhou handed it to Ren Zu'an, saying, "Take a look and give me some advice."
Ren Zuan took a look and saw that it was a list of people recommended by Zhou Kangyan to be mobilized for cultivation. The list included Zhou Taifu's children and grandchildren, as well as Zhou's relatives by marriage.
"Old Zhou, Kang Yan knows these people very well, so I don't need to give any advice. Since it was their list, they must have considered it carefully, so don't worry."
Grand Tutor Zhou smiled and said, "That's right. I trust the fourth prince. Let's do it his way."
After saying that, the old man pointed at Ai Paide and asked, "Girl, is there another one of those flying swords that got bigger just now? Let me see it again."
Wenwen secretly rejoiced. Zhou Taifu's behavior resembled that of a modern person addicted to watching videos. It was as if these short videos had taken him to a new world, and the novelty and content had captured his full attention.
Since they like it and the battery is sufficient, let's play some more cultivation scenes to broaden the elderly person's horizons.
