The Spring Water Jade Tablet gradually took its shape.
Watching a piece of raw material gradually change into colorful shapes, Li Yang had different feelings in his heart.
He was the only one who saw the making of jade carvings for the first time. Not to mention Chen Wuji's uncanny craftsmanship, just looking at a small piece of jade plaque, from scratch to the finished product made him very excited.
As magical as the Creator.
Mr. Hong and Huang Hao don't have the same thoughts as Li Yang. They are all trying to figure out Chen Wuji's knife skills.
In jade carving, it is easy to carve the shape but difficult to carve the spirit.
Many jade carving apprentices dare to go back and open a shop after learning for one or two years to help others process some simple jade articles. The jade articles they make are only formless and soulless, and even the shapes are very ordinary and dull, and they cannot make more complicated jade articles.
come out.
It is not easy to carve charm into jade. It requires not only hard work but also talent. Those who can do this are almost all masters, which shows how difficult it is.
For top masters like Chen Wuji, the form has not yet fully emerged, but the charm has already been brought out. This is even more rare. Mr. Hong can do this, but Huang Hao cannot yet. This is the difference between Huang Hao and the real top masters.
difference.
Time passed slowly, and the entire body of the eagle was revealed. Before it was polished, the sea green on the jade plaque showed its majestic side, as if it were really a condor soaring in the sky.
And the swan was opening its mouth and moaning sadly, seeming to be lamenting the unfairness of fate and making its final struggle.
Next to the silky stream, there are spring grasses moving in the wind. These spring grasses are extremely delicate. They were carved by Chen Wuji with his unique technique and the smallest carving knife. The finest grasses are thinner than hair, like silk.
generally.
Even Mr. Hong, who was usually the most unconvinced of Chen Wuji, nodded silently at this moment.
Chen Wuji's Southern style swordsmanship has a unique style, and he is indeed a famous master who has influenced a generation. Hong Lao's swordsmanship is also very good, but he is more of an inheritance, inheriting the skills of his predecessors in Suzhou. Suzhou's
The heritage is longer than that of Jieyang.
From this point of view, Chen Wuji deserves Mr. Hong’s admiration.
Huang Hao was stunned. Mr. Hong hadn't used the knife for more than ten years. In the past ten years, Huang Hao had grown up slowly. He had never met a stronger opponent than himself, and he gradually felt a little arrogant.
.
The older generation are still here, and he respects them very much, but they are no longer taking action, which makes him feel that the title of No. 1 in the world is not too far away from him.
After seeing Chen Wuji's knife skills today, it was like a hammer that woke him up, making him clearly realize that there is still a big gap between himself and the top masters. The number one in the world that he thought before was even worse.
ridiculous.
The jade tablet cleverly changed its position in Chen Wuji's hand, and the carving knife in Chen Wuji's other hand was constantly dotted with it.
More than half of the morning has passed, and the Spring Water Jade Sign is almost finished.
"call!"
After the last carving was done, Chen Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, and Chen Lei took the basin away from him. When carving, water is an indispensable tool. The water in the basin is still a little light green, which is what he brought when carving.
It is formed from the bits of jade that fell down.
This is a phenomenon caused by good raw materials.
Polish, polish.
Polishing is a very important step in the production of jade. The finished jade is full of moisture and smooth to the touch. It gives people a spiritual feeling when looking at it, which is all brought about by polishing.
Ordinary raw materials may look beautiful, but they are far from achieving this effect.
Poor polishing and throwing is like the last-minute kick on the football field. No matter how good and perfect the previous cooperation is, if the final last-minute kick is not good, it will be in vain, and all the previous efforts will be wasted.
Chen Wuji has always attached great importance to polishing and has always done it by hand.
Handwork is far inferior to machines. If the fine jade is larger in shape, sometimes it will take a day or two, or even longer, to be polished by hand. But this is just a jade plaque, so it won't take that long.
Chen Wuji held the jade plaque in his hand and slowly rubbed it. Mr. Hong finally stepped back and sat on the sofa to rest for a while.
Huang Hao and Li Yang were both recalling all Chen Wuji's actions just now. Huang Hao was more about taste, savoring the wonderful effects of Chen Wuji's every sword, while Li Yang was purely remembering, remembering every step of the process.
For Li Yang now, it is impossible to understand so much just based on what he has read in books.
It didn't take that long to polish the small jade plaque. Chen Wuji's technique was very sophisticated and saved some time. After more than an hour, the entire jade plaque became more shiny and rounded.
I did some finishing work, and after a whole morning, this spring water jade plaque was finally successfully produced.
Looking at the jade plaque in front of him, Chen Wuji grinned. At least he was satisfied with this jade plaque.
The jade plaque is engraved with the moment when Hai Dongqing captured the swan. The eagle's claws pressed down on Tian's forehead. The swan raised its head in fear, hissed and kicked hard with its legs, trying to get away from the eagle's attack.
The eagle's wings are spread out, its sharp beak is curved, and its sharp eyes bring out a special kind of arrogance.
This is the scene of an eagle fighting a swan. It is as if you have witnessed a goshawk holding down the swan in the sky and landing continuously downwards. It is extremely realistic.
The entire jade tablet is also very expressive, and the details are even more penetrating. It is an absolutely top-notch work.
"Old Chen, I really didn't expect that the spring water jade you made would be so good. I thought only those old guys from the north could make this kind of jade!"
Mr. Hong sighed heavily. Spring water jade is a common shape in the north, but rare in the south. The spring water jade plaque made by Chen Wuji is probably not comparable to the best spring water jade in the north.
Even if there is someone who can compare with it in terms of carving skills, it cannot win in terms of jade quality. While Mr. Hong was happy in his heart, he also felt a little bit disappointed.
Competition is everywhere, and the same goes for these old guys. They have been competing all their lives without a winner or loser. But today, this spring jade can win over the two old guys from the north. After they see it, they will definitely be extremely excited.
of surprise.
It's a pity that it was Chen Wuji who did all this, not him.
"Haha, this is also a coincidence. After sealing the sword, I wandered around and went to the northern grasslands. Coincidentally, I happened to see the scene of Hai Dongqing catching swans. After that, I kept thinking about it. There was no good jade, so I kept thinking about it.
Without surgery, I finally got my wish today!"
Chen Wuji laughed and looked very proud. Mr. Hong was stunned for a moment and looked at Chen Wuji with admiration.
Tritons are now basically extinct animals. To see them catching swans is even more difficult than picking up swans. Chen Wuji was lucky enough to meet them.
Of course, I wouldn't believe it if I met Mr. Hong purely by luck. Chen Wuji probably still had the intention to search, and his hard work paid off, and he actually met him. As for the hardships involved, I'm afraid only Chen Wuji himself knows.
At this time, Mr. Hong also understood. No wonder Chen Wuji could carve it so vividly and lifelike. It turned out that he had seen such a scene with his own eyes.
Li Yangzheng was holding the jade sign and couldn't put it down.
The dragon stone jadeite has a different kind of halo, which is even more beautiful under the light. After the jade medal is polished, the halo on it is more conspicuous, and the continuous flowing light on the surface makes it look like the jade medal is wearing
A flowing fluorescent coat.
Beautiful, noble, magical.
This is the jade that is truly better than the glass type. This jade token is much better than the glass imperial green jade pendant. The blood beauty is also very beautiful, but it lacks the fluorescence of the dragon stone type. These fluorescence make the whole
The katama tablet is even more mysterious, more like a fairy in jade.
The morning passed, and Li Yang and the others left the studio.
Wang Jiajia and Liu Gang both saw the spring water jade tablet that Li Yang had just made. Their eyes instantly straightened, and Wang Jiajia could not put it down and played with it.
Women all like beautiful things, and Wang Jiajia is no exception. This jade plaque is the most beautiful jade I have ever seen, except for the imperial seal.
I had a meal directly at home at noon. Lunch was very simple but very nutritious.
Chen Wuji didn't eat much. After eating, he went directly to the fragrance room to rest. He had to continue working in the afternoon. However, Mr. Hong and Huang Hao both ate a lot, and neither of them cared about Chen Wuji leaving midway.
Everyone has their own temperament. Chen Wuji loves silence. Taking a break in a quiet incense room at noon is better than sleeping in bed.
After lunch, Li Yang went back to his bedroom, constantly recalling the process of making jade plaques made by Chen Wuji in the morning.
This was his first lesson in jade carving, and it was also the most vivid lesson. Unfortunately, he didn't understand much. Chen Wuji didn't explain it to him on the spot. He could only remember it first and slowly understand it later.
Those who are engaged in jade carving in Jieyang, if they knew what Li Yang was thinking, they would probably want to beat him up. This is Chen Wuji. It would be a great blessing for him to accompany Master Chen Wuji when he was making jade carvings.
, still want to explain on the spot?
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Wuji entered the studio on time again.
Today, Chen Wuji plans to make two jade tablets, Spring Water Jade in the morning and Qiu Shan Jade in the afternoon. Qiu Shan Jade is a bit simpler than Spring Water Jade.
Chun Shui jade shows an eagle, Qiu Shan jade shows a tiger, Haidongqing is difficult to see, but tigers are not difficult to see.
The tigers in the zoo no longer have the majesty, but there are still wild parks. Chen Wuji has been to the wild parks long before Feng Dao and saw wild tigers, and he has also made sculptures of tigers before.
One afternoon later, a beautiful and noble jade tablet that also shone with green fluorescence appeared in Li Yang's hand. When the two jade tablets were paired together, they set off each other and looked even more magical and beautiful.
"Li Yang, let's continue tonight. I feel good today. I'm going to make bracelets tonight!"
When walking out of the studio, Chen Wuji suddenly said something. Mr. Hong glanced at him in surprise, and then shook his head bitterly.
In terms of physical strength alone, the three old guys really couldn't compare with Chen Wuji, who had a solid foundation in kung fu. If it were him, he would be too tired to move after making two jade tablets, but Chen Wuji still had the energy to continue working.
