"So that's ......" Shen Mange thought for a while, and sighed in a low voice: "Brother Zi'an wants to do this thing, there is a long way to go......

Qu Duo nodded: "That's the case, Master Lu's thinking is too advanced, to be honest, I really don't dare to say this without a certain ability, in fact, to be honest, I thought it was ridiculous when I first heard it." ”

"Huh?"

"What Master Lu wants to do, to put it bluntly, is to inherit the mastery and carry it forward, but how difficult is it to do this? So many people have never done it before, why does he have the confidence to say that he can do it?" Qu Duo said to the point: "And he is not very old, and his words have no weight, so I was not optimistic at first." ”

Shen Mange also smiled a little helplessly: "Actually, I felt this way before, but I think Brother Zi'an will definitely succeed." ”

"Well, then I carefully studied all of Master Lu's works, you know? His progress is really terrible, he basically did not make any mistakes, even if there were flaws, they were immediately remedied, and each work was more exquisite than the previous one. Qu Duoduo looked very serious: "If such people can't succeed, then who else can?"

And this is one of the reasons why she has to devote herself to this cause despite the opposition of her family.

Working with Lu Zi'an is a challenging and risky investment, and she was nervous at first, but for now, it seems that she made the right bet.

At this moment, everyone in the hall paused, and the long prelude was finally completed.

"Please...... Ji Pin!" the old man dragged out his tone and sang leisurely.

Lu Zi'an and the five of them stepped forward at the same time and uncovered the lids on their respective Jipin trays.

The rockmason's auspicious product is a very fine stone carving, and on the thin rock, a landscape painting carved in bas-relief is particularly elegant.

The carvers stepped forward to take a closer look, and finally nodded, and put this auspicious piece on the offering table in the delightful eyes of the rock mason representative.

The bricklayer's auspicious product is a stack of extremely square brick-red tiles, which is rare that each piece has a handprint on the reverse side, but the surface is very smooth, and the overall beauty is neat and tidy, which is very exquisite.

Xie Jiang's auspicious product is much simpler, it is an extremely thin piece of wood, without any carving or any pattern, just one word: thin.

Eventually, these two pieces were put on the altar, and then everyone looked at the carpenter and carver's good fortune, and they all showed the same expression.

Bewilderment.

The reason for the embarrassment is that these two auspicious items turned out to be nuclear carvings.

[Wow, I've never seen a crash in a shirt or a car, but I've never seen anything good in it!]

[Even if you've bumped into it before, you don't know it......]

[Anyway, no matter what you say, I'll bet on the master to win!]

Even Lu Jianfeng couldn't help but be a little nervous, frowned and said: "Big brother, why did you let Zi'an do nuclear carving? I see that the round carving he made last time is not very good, if it really doesn't work, he will make some paint lines and make up the next, what to do with this nuclear carving, the maker of this carver Jipin is good at miniature carving, you are really ......"

Lu Jianwei said expressionlessly: "I have my reason for letting him do it." ”

The carpenters next to him were originally a little nervous, but looking at his indifferent appearance, they temporarily suppressed their doubts and turned their eyes to the field.

Lu Jianwei clenched the small box containing the nuclear carving in his palm, this was the last nuclear carving of his father before his death, although it was not exquisite enough, but it was no problem to take it out.

If Lu Zi'an's work can't pass, he will be the last line of defense.

The master carvers looked at each other solemnly, and they all hesitated.

Two auspicious products of the same kind, this has really not happened before, and it is the first time they have seen it, and they can't help but hesitate.

If the two nuclear carvings are really put on the altar, will it be too disrespectful to the ancestors?

"This ...... In my opinion, the carpenter's good fortune might as well be replaced with another one, right?" said an old carver with some hesitation.

Without waiting for the others to speak, Lu Zi'an said very calmly: "Can I ask the reason?"

"You see it, too...... Both auspicious items are nuclear carvings......"

Lu Zi'an nodded thoughtfully: "So the auspicious product of this Luban meeting can't be a nuclear carving?"

"That's not ......" a person next to him hurriedly said: "It's just that if two auspicious products are the same......"

He didn't say anything more about the rest of the words, but the implication was still obvious.

Lu Zi'an thought for a while: "In this case, will I ask if both works are changed?"

How can it be done?

The carvers shook their heads again and again: "Naturally, it can't be done, just change one piece, just one piece." ”

Another person said more directly: "I believe you also understand, with your skills, it is still a little difficult to compare with Master Meng, the master carver." ”

In fact, there is no malice in this, and it can even be regarded as a euphemistic hint, and no one will say anything at this time when borrowing a donkey from the slope.

"Oh......" Lu Zi'an was not angry, but said very calmly: "Then I think that for the sake of fairness, either both will withdraw, or both will participate, and our carpenter's auspicious products will not be exchanged." ”

He didn't want to compare with Master Meng, and he didn't want to cause any disputes, but in this matter, he could only be tough to the end, Ji Pin was a matter of face, unless his skills were not as good as others, it would never be impossible to casually let people be thrown out of the game with a word.

Seeing Lu Zi'an's attitude so tough, the faces of the carvers suddenly did not look good, but all the carpenters looked like they were advancing and retreating together.

They are all craftsmen, so why are carvers always superior?

Lu Zi'an is now in the limelight, and the carver is extremely rare among his peers, and the master personally invited him to participate in the selection, which is not necessarily worse than their master carver?

Lu Xun once said: "The temperament of Chinese people always likes to reconcile, compromise, for example, you say, this room is too dark, you must open a window here, everyone must not allow it." If you advocate tearing down the roof, they will reconcile and open the windows, and they will not even do peaceful reform without more drastic ideas. ”

Looking at the expressions of everyone, knowing that it was unlikely that they wanted them to voluntarily exchange auspicious products, the carvers finally began to face up to Lu Zi'an's nuclear carving.

It is the same nuclear carving, how to choose?

Naturally, it is based on merit.

A master carver said hesitantly: "No matter how exquisite the carpenter's skills are, they will never be able to carve miniature carvings, but Master Meng's work has perfectly carved a whole couplet into this exquisite nuclear carving, with the wind of a nuclear boat......

The nuclear boat he said naturally everyone knows, "The couplet, the inscription and the seal text are a total of 30 characters and 4." And counting its length, it has not been profitable", such a realm is not something that can be achieved by casual practice.

With such confidence, the carvers began to carefully appreciate Lu Zi'an's auspicious product.

Their evaluation is also very fair: "This carving is quite exquisite, and it is rare that the artistic conception is also very good......"

"Oh, these antlers are wonderful!" The more the man looked at it, the more he was pleased: "Wait, how can I look like there is someone here......?"
