Chapter 924 Jade Statue of Pure Light Buddha
…
After having a sweet breakfast with Wang Qiang and Lin Ling, Liu Dong drove his new Hummer to the back mountain of Mount Tai.
After Liu Dong turned off the engine and got out of the car, as soon as he opened the rear door, two shadows, one gold and one red, had quickly jumped out of the car, and then started running around the car like crazy.
After locking the car door and carrying his backpack, Liu Dong said loudly: "Tiger Head, Lion Head is back, we are going up the mountain!"
Hearing Liu Dong's voice, the golden and red figure jumped back like lightning. After arriving at Liu Dong's side, they were all having fun around his legs and feet, wagging their tails so hard that they couldn't even see clearly!
Seeing the two Tibetan Mastiffs being so kind to him, Liu Dong smiled, took out two Jade Toad Heart-protecting Pills and threw them into the air. Without him saying anything, the two Tibetan Mastiffs were already the size of an adult dog, with a shoulder height of over 50 centimeters.
The Tibetan Mastiff quickly jumped more than two meters high, threw Liu Dong into the air and swallowed the pill.
This taste is what they have been most familiar with and longed for since they were young, and they can also feel the benefits of this elixir to themselves.
So I was not satisfied after eating it!
"Okay, you can't take more of this pill. I'll give it to you in three days!" Liu Dong touched the heads of the two big dogs and quickened his pace!
But the two Tibetan Mastiffs are much faster than Liu Dong!
Moreover, the Tibetan Mastiff, who left Liu Dong's manor for the first time, completely let loose in the face of the vast world, and soon brought gains to Liu Dong!
But looking at the mice in their mouths, Liu Dong couldn't help but smile bitterly, touching the head of a tiger with red hair and a strong body, and a dead cauliflower snake about 1 meter long with golden hair in its mouth next to it.
, with a lion head like a liger, Liu Dong explained: "You are not allowed to eat these messy things in the future! Throw them all away to me!"
Liu Dong finished speaking. The eyes of the two pairs of dogs with tiger heads and lion heads clearly showed an emotion called thinking. It was hard to believe that this kind of emotion could be seen in dogs, but Liu Dong was used to it and didn't know.
Did you feed them the Jade Toad Heart-protecting Pill since they were young? It enlightened their wisdom. In short, the spirituality of these two Tibetan mastiffs is obviously extraordinary. They can understand many of Liu Dong's words!
Just like this time, after Liu Dong gave the order, the tiger head and the lion head tilted their heads and thought for a few seconds. Then they suddenly shook their mouths, flinging away the mice and snakes in their mouths, and then started scattering again.
Huan, soon the two figures, one gold and one red, disappeared into the dense forest.
"Woof woof...!"
Listening to the deep and deep voice that belongs exclusively to Tibetan Mastiffs, like a bell and a bell, gradually faded away, Liu Dong shook his head and continued to climb his mountain!
Ten minutes passed, and the distance of 800 meters had been crossed by Liu Dong. When he stood outside the gate of Wuxin Zen Monastery again. Even though he had only been away for more than three months, Liu Dong actually felt like he was in another world.
!
"Perhaps the experience of going abroad this time is too rich and thrilling?" Liu Dong secretly thought.
After shaking his head to eliminate those chaotic thoughts, Liu Dong pinched the thumb and index finger of his right hand, put it in his mouth, and blew hard, and soon there was a melodious and high-pitched whistle that shook the mountains and could be heard all the time!
Soon, in less than half a minute, a rustling sound came from the deep forest in the distance. The sound came from far to near, and soon two golden and red figures rushed out of the woods, fell in front of Liu Dong and turned into two bodies.
A big dog that is strong, has long and thick limbs, and is covered with golden-red hair!
"You're not allowed to run around after you get in, you know?"
"Woof woof...!"
Patting the tiger's and lion's huge heads with satisfaction, Liu Dong opened the Iron General on the temple door, then pushed the door open and walked in.
"Master, I'm Xiaodong, are you always here?"
"Come in. I'm in the study. Leave your two dogs in the yard!" An old voice came from the left wing!
"knew!"
After agreeing, Liu Dong asked Tiger Head and Lion Head to wait obediently in the yard, then Liu Dong stepped up the five steps and walked into the left wing.
The decorations are the same as Liu Dong's usual ones, but at this moment there is a completed Buddha statue on the table on the right side of the study room by the window. The Buddha statue is scabbed and sitting cross-legged on a lotus seat. There is a flame-like backlight behind it. There are arhats embossed around the lotus seat.
Vajra and bhikkhu, as well as the Buddhist conch, Dharma wheel, umbrella, white cover, lotus, treasure vase, goldfish, and the eight treasures of Panlong, also called the eight auspicious things!
The Buddha statue is crystal clear and fiery red, especially the head. Both color and texture have reached the extreme. Looking at this Buddha statue, Liu Dong can feel a tranquil, compassionate and auspicious artistic conception, which makes people's hearts rise.
I have the desire to take refuge in Buddhism, escape from the world of mortals, and enjoy eternal purity!
However, Liu Dong's mind was extremely determined, and he quickly struggled out of this artistic conception, but his face could not help but reveal a look of wonder.
The highest state of sculpture is a kind of spiritual communication. Just like a painter conveys his thoughts through his paintings, the same is true for sculptors. However, due to the gap in level, those who can do this are basically professionals.
A master within, but one who can make people feel as strongly as Master Cheap can only be achieved by the master state!
Soon, Liu Dong also recognized that this Pure Light Buddha, which was about 120 centimeters high and 60 centimeters in diameter at the base, was carved from the two top-quality jadeite pieces he brought last time!
The cockscomb red part of the glass with the highest value was carved into the Buddha's head, the remaining part of the high ice type was carved into the remaining Buddha body, and the originally smaller part of the emperor green glass was carved into the Buddha's seat.
There is no doubt that this assembled Buddha statue is a top-notch work of art of immeasurable value! But the value of these materials alone exceeds 1 billion, not to mention the craftsmanship of the carving, which can now reach the master level in China
At the level of jade carving, Liu Dong has only seen his cheap master so far!
"Master, your craftsmanship is so superb!" Liu Dong couldn't help but admire.
"That's it!" After giving Liu Dong a proud look, Monk Wu Xin pushed a large cardboard box next to the Buddha statue in front of Liu Dong, "Let's take a look at the remaining materials after carving this 'Pure Light Buddha'
It’s all in there!”
"Yeah?"
Liu Dong looked overjoyed and quickly reached out to open the box. This top-notch jade Buddha will definitely not be sold, but there is no such concern for jewelry made from scraps!
"so much?"
Liu Dong looked surprised as he looked at the densely packed bracelets, pendants, rings and the like in the carton that had been carved but not fully inlaid with jewelry.
After looking at him, Monk Wu Xin said: "This is the difference between carved jade and carved jade. In addition to being able to carve all kinds of jade more delicately and expressively, carved jade also saves much more materials than carved jade!"
Liu Dong actually believed that the so-called jade carving was to use various kinds of grinders to grind it. Of course, the jade scraps that were ground would not be used, but carving jade was different. You could cut off the unused jade. Of course you want to
It is extremely difficult to truly master the technique of carving jade, because it is not that easy to find a sword that can cut jade like clay!
Throughout the ages, the only thing that has truly left its name in history is the Kunlun knife! This shows how difficult it is!
Although they cannot be sold in pieces, there are no less than 80 bracelets in the carton, more than 150 pendants, and even more rings and rings that can be processed into earrings and brooches. Three or four hundred is not difficult!
It sounds like a lot, but compared to Liu Dong’s 300 kilograms of top-quality red jade and 32 kilograms of glass imperial green, it’s nothing!
If 80% of these two pieces of material were not made into statues, the amount of jewelry Liu Dong received could have been increased four to five times!
Of course, making jewelry from such good materials is inferior. Turning it into a work of art containing top-notch craftsmanship is the best way to use glass jadeite materials!
So, Liu Dong suddenly had more ideas in his mind!
"Master, how long did it take you to complete this sculpture?" Liu Dong turned around and asked.
"Four days, what happened?"
"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that I still have a few pieces of material that are better than this. I wonder if you are still interested...!"
"What else?" Monk Wu Xin's reaction shocked Liu Dong.
Before Liu Dong could react, Master Baian had already grabbed his shoulders with both hands. He felt the strong power in Master Baian's hands. If he hadn't been strong enough, he would have been unable to bear it. And he could only face himself.
It was only when the master was taking advantage of him that he would be so easily grabbed by the shoulders.
"What you just said is true. Do you still have imperial green glass jade material?"
Seeing the master's blushing face, his heart beating, his eyes wide open, and his anxious look, Liu Dong was surprised, but he still nodded quickly, "Yes, master! Your apprentice, I run a jewelry company.
Of course there are good materials in it, including top-grade jadeite, Nanyang jade, Hotan jade, Dushan jade, top-grade materials among emeralds...!"
"Take me there quickly!"
Before Liu Dong could finish speaking, he was forcefully pulled out of the study by Master Cheap, without giving him any chance to resist!
But just when the two of them walked out of the study, they suddenly stopped!
"Woooo...!"
The tiger and lion heads, with their fangs exposed and low roars coming from their mouths, did not recognize Monk Wu Xin. Seeing their master being caught, they all arched their bodies and prepared to attack. Despite their keen instincts as animals,
I have noticed that the skinny old guy is difficult to deal with, but the loyal Tibetan Mastiff never cares about danger!
"Lion head, lion head stop, this is my master, not an enemy!" Liu Dong said quickly.
He was not afraid that his dogs would hurt Master Cheap, but that Monk Wuxin would hurt them!
With Liu Dong's comfort, the tiger-headed and lion-headed dogs showed a hint of confusion in their eyes. Although they retracted their paws into their meat pads under Liu Dong's instructions, they still did not let go of their vigilance!
Looking at them, Monk Wu Xin smiled with disapproval. (To be continued.)
