This morning, reading with the demon.
Chen Xu explained "The Analects" to the little hedgehog demon Wei Yuan, asking him to read a passage and then recite it from memory.
After memorizing, he grasped a brush with his little hands to learn writing.
Wei Yuan was small, and his hands were small too.
Fortunately, his hands had basically taken on a human shape, so when Chen Xu gave him a slender brush pen, he could barely hold it to write.
During the process, Chen Xu found that, although he was teaching the demon to read, rather than reading himself,
the Literary Qi in the Ink Pool within his Sea of Literature was slowly increasing.
Wei Yuan was very earnest in his reading, although he was indeed a bit dim and often forgetful of what he had memorized.
But when Chen Xu had him repeatedly memorize and recite, he was able to settle his mind and bit by bit recite back what he had forgotten.
