"Although we are also craftsmen, with our unique skills, we are not qualified to make friends with the Zhu family! Even my ancestors are not qualified to make friends with the Zhu family.
You are different. Not only did you make friends with people from the Zhu family, you also got their Baimen robe! This is enough to show that the Zhu family respects you!"
While speaking, I saw the awe in Master Zhao's eyes facing me!
I knew that Zhu Laoqi was very powerful and a true descendant of ghost craftsmen, but I didn’t expect that he would have such a status in the world. An ordinary carpenter who was hard-earned by eight thousand dollars, who would have thought that he would have such a high status?
What a stunning background.
"So he is so powerful!" I said thoughtfully.
"No, the Zhu family knows all the skills in the carpentry world, and they are proficient in it! My ancestors went to see them back then. At that time, my ancestors were just ordinary woodcarvers. Later, after his guidance, my ancestors gradually became capable of being master craftsmen.
.The three carving knives from my ancestors were donated by the Zhu family back then. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Zhu family are the mentors of our Zhao family."
"I see." I continued and asked, "Then, is it true that your three carving knives can carve living things?" ??
Master Zhao sighed, nodded and said, "It's true, but the process is more complicated."
Having said this, Master Zhao took another sip of tea and said, "You also know that with the passage of time, many family skills are gradually disappearing! The same is true for our wood carving. In the past, my ancestors could indeed
You can directly carve a wooden figure into a living thing, and as long as the carving is done, you can do it. But in my generation, it is not that easy."
Zhao Mingyan heard this and interrupted, "Grandpa, didn't you say that if you use the wrong carving knife and use the same carving knife used to carve animals to carve people, that person will turn into a monster? How could it be..."
Master Zhao snorted and said with a look of hatred on his face, "I lied to you! I just want you to do things seriously and not be careless all the time. In our wood carving business, you can't be careless at all."
Yes, otherwise, don't make wood carvings. What I didn't expect is that you kid really doesn't have a long memory, and you actually made a mistake for me."
When Zhao Mingyan heard this, she lowered her head and said with an embarrassed look, "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I know I was wrong."
"Fortunately, I don't have that ability. If I had, you would have made a big mistake."
Zhao Mingyan lowered her head, pursed her lips and stopped talking.
I took over the conversation and said, "Actually, it's not that you don't have that ability, but that the carving knife you used for Miss Zhao is not the carving knife passed down by your ancestors, right?"
After listening to my words, Master Zhao was shocked again! He looked at me and asked, "This...this...how do you say this?"
I looked at Master Zhao and said, "Miss Zhao showed me the three carving knives. I didn't see the spiritual energy on those three carving knives! Logically speaking, to be able to carve something with wood spirit, it requires extremely strong energy."
The blades are covered with spiritual energy. Apart from being sharper than ordinary carving knives, those three carving knives have nothing special about them, so I guess they are not the carving knives of your ancestors."
After listening to my words, Master Zhao's eyes flickered. After a long time, he realized that he should tell the truth.
So, he sighed and said, "It seems that nothing can be hidden from your eyes. No wonder you
I can make friends with people from the Zhu family! You are right, those three carving knives are indeed not inherited from my family."
"Many years ago, I took on an apprentice and taught him the art of carving! I passed on all my skills to him. After he finished learning, he asked me if he could carve living things."
"I refused at the time. The reason why I refused was because I had never carved a living creature. Many years ago, my grandfather carved a living creature. Originally, the living creature was supposed to listen to my grandfather's words, but it did.
It's an embarrassing thing to talk about. The living creature ate people, and it ate several people, which once plunged our village into panic. Later, in order to atone for his sins, my grandfather died together with the living creature.
When he died, he told my father not to carve living things anymore! After that, my father and I traveled far away from home, came here, and opened this shop to earn a living. After that, we never carved again.
Live a living thing!”
"What I didn't expect was that after I rejected my apprentice, he actually stole three carving knives inherited from my family. I haven't seen him since then. I have been trying various methods to find him, but
, I haven’t found him until now! I was extremely surprised when I just heard you say that I saw that monster with that appearance. Because that kind of monster looks like the kind of monster that my grandfather finally carved out to eat people.”
After hearing this, I finally understood what was going on!
So I looked at him again and asked, "So, the one who carved this monster was your original apprentice, right?"
Master Zhao nodded slightly and said, "If I guessed correctly, it must be him! Unexpectedly, I looked everywhere for him and couldn't find him, but he has always lived in the same city as me."
"Sir, tell me where he is? I'll go find him with you!"
Seeing the excited look on Master Zhao's face, I hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know where he is. I only know that the monster he made has been haunting Hebin Road. I came to you just to ask
I asked you about your relationship with him, now that I have asked you. I also want to ask you if there is anything I can do to find him out."
After listening to my words, Master Zhao thought for a while, and then said, "Just give it a try! I'm not sure, but since you are here and you are my evil disciple, I naturally will not stand idly by."
Hearing this, I stood up, clasped my fists and said, "Thank you, Master Zhao."
Master Zhao waved his hand and said, "You are a friend of the Zhu family, so naturally you are also a benefactor of my Zhao family! This matter all started with my apprentice, and it is naturally inseparable from me. I will definitely go all out."
Master Zhao said that if he wanted to find his apprentice, he had to wait until night, because only at night could his wooden man sense where the carved living creature was. He asked his apprentice what he had done, and I told him what happened.
I told him what happened to Li Xuemei's husband. After listening to it, he said angrily, "That scoundrel, if I had known, I shouldn't have taught him those skills! He's just doing all kinds of things."
Seeing his excited look, I instantly felt confident. It seemed that my inference was correct. They did have some carpenter skills.
At ten o'clock in the evening, after grabbing a small wooden figure without facial features and a carving knife, we set off to Hebin Road.
There is no moon tonight, there is a gloomy drizzle in the sky, and there is no pedestrian on the street. This is destined to be an extraordinary night... "Although we are also craftsmen, with our unique skills, we want to make friends with the Zhu family.
, that is not qualified! Even my ancestors are not qualified to make friends with people from the Zhu family. You are different. Not only did you make friends with people from the Zhu family, you also got their Baimenpao! This is enough
It shows that the Zhu family is full of respect for you!"
While speaking, I saw the awe in Master Zhao's eyes facing me!
