Once upon a time, there was a young poor
and kind man called Ma Liang. He liked drawing
pictures everywhere. One night, he dreamed that an
old man gave him a magic paint brush which could
turn everything to life and asked him to use it to help
poor people. When he woke up, he found the magic
paint brush in his desk. Then, he began to use it to
help the poor people who needed it.
A few weeks later, a rich man heard the
magic paint brush. He wanted very much, so he sent
some people to Ma Liang’s home and took him to the
prison. The rich man got the magic paint brush and
felt very happy. The rich man invited his friends to
come to his home and showed them the magic paint
brush. He drew a lot of pictures, but they could not
become real. He was furious and asked some people
to get Ma Liang. He told Ma Liang that he would set
him free if he drew some pictures and turned them to
life.
The man asked ma Liang to draw a golden
mountain and a big ship. He said that he would go
there to gather gold. However, the young man drew
the sea first. The bad man was angry and said, ”I
want a golden mountain and ship, not the sea. Draw
them now.” Then, the young man drew a golden
mountain which was far away from the sea. The
young man smiled quietly and drew a big ship. The
man, his family, and friends soon jumped into the
ship. When the ship sailed to the middle of the sea,
