Zhao Zheng finalized the carving plan in his mind and swung the first sword towards the jade. This sword was quite drastic, directly cutting off a large piece of the cracked part and improving the shape of the jade, giving it a curve.
Wen is not fond of flat mountains, and the same goes for sculpture. Only by breaking the tranquility can we gain a better sense of art. By cutting off a piece of jade and making a curvature, we can create this kind of artistic movement.
Zhao Zheng withdrew his sword and observed the cut surface on the jade for a while. He found that there were still some natural cracks in the depths, so he moved his sword into it again. The sword energy drew an irregular and complex curve and removed this part.
, broken jade debris fell one after another.
His two swords were very powerful, and he controlled the sword energy very accurately without damaging the rest of the jade. His technique was quite skillful.
Seeing this, the young hall master who was in charge of carving yesterday narrowed his eyes slightly and involuntarily took a step forward, wanting to get closer for observation.
Zhao Zheng continued to carve, walking around the jade as if strolling in a courtyard. As he walked, he stabbed the jade with his sword from various angles.
The sword light was as fast as lightning and as beautiful as a butterfly. It landed on the jade stone and removed the excess parts. The jade stone turned from a stubborn stone into a blank, and then stretched out from the blank, branches and trunks of different sizes and shapes.
The different flower heads gradually took the shape of peonies.
Although it is just a prototype, it cannot be carved by an outsider. Only those who have studied jade carving can carve jade to this level.
When Yan Shi saw this, he screamed inwardly, quietly walked towards the young hall leader, lowered his voice and asked: "Do you think what level he has reached now?"
"It won't be too bad." The young hall master replied calmly.
"Will it surpass you?"
"It's hard to say now. We have to wait until he finishes carving before we can make a conclusion." The young hall master frowned slightly, "Did he really learn this unique skill in just one day?"
"I don't know, I don't think so. He should have dabbled in sculpture before." Yan Shi shook his head, not believing that anyone in the world could have such an incredible learning ability.
Zhao Zheng had already progressed to the drilling part at this time, using the sharp and smooth sword energy to penetrate the jade and create breathable holes. Peonies are flowers, and the two most important points for carving flowers are transparency and transparency.
It is thin. Only when these two points are achieved can the flowers appear crystal clear and beautiful.
Drilling must be done in the early stage of the jade carving process. The jade at this stage is relatively strong and can withstand impact. In the later stage, when the branches and leaves have become thinner and thinner, it will be inconvenient to drill holes. Of course, these holes are not made casually.
, each one has its own meaning, most of them are the bifurcation of some branches.
Zhao Zheng looked very experienced during the carving process, like a skilled carver. This made the people of Qishimen feel a huge crisis, and their previous self-confidence was gone.
Although the bet in this literary fight is nothing, it is just Luo Xing's life, but no one is willing to lose, because it is also related to the face of Qishi Sect. If a dignified sect loses to one person, the matter
It would not sound good if the news got out. Everyone in Qishimen was worried, fearing that they would really lose, and wished that Zhao Zhengneng would make some mistake.
It seemed that the curses of these people really worked. When the carving was halfway through, Zhao Zheng failed to control his strength well and knocked off a flower head. In fact, this kind of mistake is very common, even experienced carvers cannot avoid it.
Everyone in Qishimen was secretly happy when they saw this, but they didn't show it on their faces.
Zhao Zheng frowned, picked up the fallen flower head, looked at it for a few times, and then threw it away without paying much attention. It was precisely because he was worried about damaging the jade that he chose a large one to carve.
, so that even if a small part is damaged, it can be easily repaired. His choice is indeed correct. Although carving large pieces of jade is tiring, it doesn't matter if a piece is knocked off.
Zhao Zheng repaired the damage, removed the excess parts, and continued carving.
Everyone in Qishimen was a little disappointed when they saw that the fallen flowers failed to affect Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng gradually entered the fine carving part, and drew the sword more carefully and slower. Under his careful carving, the petals of the peony flower became thinner and thinner, getting closer and closer to the real flower.
At this point in the carving, one can already see Zhao Zheng's carving skills. The young hall master stared at Zhao Zheng who was drawing his sword repeatedly, and commented in a low voice: "His carving is not as beautiful as mine, but the jade he carved is worse than mine." Big, if you want to compare them, each has its own advantages and disadvantages."
Yan Shi remained silent and frowned. Even if everyone had their own pros and cons in this round, Zhao Zheng had to win. After all, Zhao Zheng was just imitating his unique skills. He didn't want this to happen, but it was over.
At this point, it was too late to regret, and he could only find a way to remedy the situation. He thought about cheating or denying, but doing so would make him lose face in front of his disciples, so it was not advisable.
After much deliberation, there was no other solution but to hand Luo Xing over.
"You guys continue to watch here. I'm going to do something and I'll be back soon." Yan Shi ordered, left the yard, went straight to Luo Xing's house, and knocked on Luo Xing's door.
Luo Xing opened the door. When he saw the leader coming, he immediately bowed and asked: "Master leader, I heard that boy Zhao Zheng wants to imitate the remaining two skills in advance. I don't know what the situation is.
Has he succeeded in imitating it?"
"Logically speaking, he shouldn't succeed. With his strength, he can't learn so fast, and with his age, he can't learn so many things. But..." Yan Shi changed the topic halfway through his words.
"But what?" Luo Xing's throat moved, obviously feeling uneasy.
"But he succeeded and learned both skills. Now he is carving jade with his sword, and it has come to the end and will be finished soon."
"This, this is impossible!" Luo Xing said in shock.
"I don't think it's possible, but the facts are in front of me. With my age and status, how can I talk to you so casually?" Yan Shi said in a calm tone. He walked into the room and closed the door.
The light is much dimmed.
Luo Xing stayed on the spot and didn't speak for a long time. He finally squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "Master, you will definitely protect me, right?"
"You are my disciple, of course I will protect you. If it wasn't for you, why would I have to put so much effort into creating such a literary fight?"
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master. This kindness and kindness will be unforgettable for Luo for the rest of his life!" Luo Xing quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
"You should thank me, because I have fulfilled my responsibilities as the leader, but..." Yan Shi said again, "I have tried my best. Zhao Zheng performed those three unique skills and he won the battle.
Dou, according to the agreement, I have to hand you over to him. I am a dignified Qishimen, and I cannot break my word."
"Master, Master... you can't do this! If you hand me over to him, I will definitely die!" Luo Xing crawled to Yan Shi's feet on his knees, shaking like chaff from fear.
"There's nothing we can do about it. I can only blame you for not doing things cleanly. You left a clue and laid the foundation for your own trouble." Yan Shi leaned over expressionlessly and put his hand on Luo Xing's shoulder.
He stopped Luo Xing's trembling and said, "It's much harder to do bad things than good things. Remember to be careful when you do bad things in your next life."
"Master, please..."
"Stop begging, it's useless even if you beg me."
"But I've already given you all the money I have!" Luo Xing said in excitement.
When Yan Shi heard this, his expression turned cold, and he said calmly: "I came to you in advance just for this matter. I have already collected the money, and I can't return it to you, so I have to find a way to make you control your mouth.
.”
"You! You!" Luo Xing said you several times in a row. He wanted to scold Yan Shi, but he didn't dare to do so. If he cursed, he would die faster. He forced himself to calm down.
His mood became much more stable, and he continued to plead, "Master, for the sake of the money, can you let me go?"
"No, Qishimen cannot break its promise."
"Then can you help me kill Zhao Zheng?"
"This is even more impossible. There is no martial arts power behind Zhao Zheng. How can I kill him casually?" Yan Shi shook his head, "Okay, Luo Xing, stop struggling to your death. Things have not turned around. You
Just accept your fate."
Luo Xing was completely desperate. His body seemed to have been drained and he fell to one side.
Yan Shi grabbed Luo Xing's arm, slowly stretched out two fingers, and said slowly: "I have said everything that needs to be said, and I am going to take action now."
"You want to kill me?" Luo Xing asked in horror.
"No, that's Zhao Zheng's business. I came here just to make you mute, so that you won't tell Zhao Zheng that I took your money." As soon as Yan Shi finished speaking, he put his finger on Luo Xing's body.
He pressed the dumb acupuncture point heavily, pouring the internal energy into it. He used a heavy hand, leaving no room to relieve the acupoint, completely turning Luo Xing into a mute.
Luo Xing opened his mouth to shout in pain, but no sound came out.
Yan Shi then hit Luo Xing's sleeping hole and let Luo Xing fall asleep. He stood up, clapped his hands, dusted off the non-existent dust, and then left the house and returned to the previous yard.
Zhao Zheng had just finished the carving and had exhausted all his inner strength. When he saw Yan Shi coming back, he smiled and asked, "Senior, what do you think of my carving?"
Yan Shi looked at the finished product of the peony jade carving. The quality of this jade carving left him speechless. If he found fault with it, it would only make him look petty. He nodded and said, "Very good. The three unique skills are not difficult to do."
You, you won this literary fight."
"Then can I take Luo Xing away?" Zhao Zheng asked again.
"Of course, you can take Luo Xing away now. Our Qishi Sect always keeps what we say." Yan Shi agreed happily. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
