00:00Hey there, kids! Welcome to Happy Kiddo! Let's begin today's video.
00:06Under the harsh sun of the marketplace, Shen, emaciated and clad in rags, searches for sustenance among the refuse.
00:16His charcoal-stained fingers twitch with an irrepressible urge for artistry.
00:22Amidst the squalor, he discovers a broken tile, a canvas, for his fleeting inspiration.
00:29Upon it, he sketches a carp leaping against a waterfall, a vibrant symbol of hope amidst despair.
00:38A fishmonger, observing from afar, tosses him a bruised apple, a small act of kindness in the bustling marketplace.
00:47Under the relentless downpour at the temple, Eve's stone steps glisten, reflecting the dim light.
00:55Shen, drenched and shivering, seeks refuge in the shadows, his breath a fleeting cloud in the frigid air.
01:05A cloaked, ancient monk materializes beside him, an ethereal figure amidst the storm's fury.
01:12The monk extends a hand, offering a brush carved from bone, its handle gleaming with an eerie light.
01:20The monk's solemn voice cuts through the storm's roar, imparting a cryptic warning.
01:26This brush paints truth.
01:29Wield it with care, the monk advises, his eyes holding ancient wisdom and a hint of foreboding.
01:35Skeptical, Shen dips the brush, the dim light reflecting in a puddle of water.
01:42With a stroke, he paints a steaming bowl of noodles, the fragrant aroma filling the cold air.
01:49The noodles materialize before him, an illusion made real.
01:54Warm floods through his chilled limbs as he eats, his eyes widening in amazement at the impossible.
02:02Within the jade palace, whispers of Shen's artistry have reached the emperor's ears, stirring both awe and trepidation.
02:10Guards see Shen, his face pale, and drag him across the polished jade floor towards the imposing throne.
02:17The emperor sits in stern judgment, his features hardened by cruelty and ambition, his eyes like chips of ice.
02:27The emperor's voice echoes through the hall, demanding,
02:31Paint me mountains of gold.
02:33His command intensifies, fueled by an insatiable hunger for power.
02:40Paint me an army that will crush all beneath my heel.
02:44Shen trembles before the throne, the weight of the emperor's dark desires settling upon him like a shroud.
02:52Inside the jade palace, Shen trembles, yet his defiance burns bright against the emperor's looming power.
03:01No, Shen declares, his voice echoing in the vast chamber.
03:05A solitary act of resistance.
03:09The emperor's face contorts with rage, his command shattering the tense silence.
03:15Imprison him!
03:17Break his hands!
03:19Cornered, Shen seizes his brush.
03:22A desperate glint in his eyes as he prepares his final act.
03:26With a flourish, he paints a single, perfect lotus flower.
03:31Its petals unfurling with ethereal beauty in the dim light.
03:36The emperor's desire intensifies.
03:40The brush will be mine.
03:42The emperor's eyes burn with avarice as he lunges for the brush.
03:47He snatches it, but the brush remains cold and lifeless within his grasp,
03:53devoid of the magic he craves.
03:56Shen, enraged by its refusal, he throws the brush aside in a fit of pique.
04:02Shen, fueled by defiance, paints a crane, its wings vast and powerful, soaring beyond the emperor's reach.
04:11The piercing cry of a crane echoes as it descends from the heavens.
04:17Shen, eyes ablaze with resolve, leaps onto the crane's back, ascending rapidly.
04:23Below, the emperor's enraged shouts become a distant echo as they soar above the villages.
04:30Arriving at villages scarred by relentless taxes, Shen paints vibrant fields of wheat, with death strokes.
04:39The crane transforms into a beacon of hope, a silhouette of resilience against the backdrop of oppression as Shen creates granaries overflowing with abundance.
