So, is he really going to retreat?

Ying Xuan slowly lowered his head, heard Lu Zi'an sigh softly, and then walked out.

He spread out his hand and carefully looked at the lines of his palm.

There was a scar on his left hand, which was cut crooked, and the tip of the knife directly cut a long way, and his hand was almost useless.

The calluses in the right hand, each one is sharpened by practicing day after day.

At first, it will only feel a little itchy, and then it will start to hurt, and it will bleed when it is worn out, but you still have to grit your teeth and continue to do it.

Is it a bitter time?

Bitter.

In the most difficult time, he hated to break a dime in half and spend it.

In summer, when it is too hot, pour a basin of water to wash your face, and wash it several times in a basin of water;

In winter, when I can't stand the cold, I go to the supermarket, walk back and forth under the strange eyes of the security guards, and have to change places from time to time.

Why did you stick to it?

Because he truly loves the craft.

The wood carving is elegant, and the knowledge of various wood materials is very boring for others, but it is a very interesting thing for him.

Even now, he remembers the joy he felt when he carved a piece for the first time.

Ying Xuan's fingertips trembled a little, gritted his teeth, and rushed directly to the door.

Opened the door suddenly, turned around but didn't see Lu Zi'an.

Master, are you disappointed?

He looked around in a daze, and shouted, "Master!"

"What are you doing? A clear and cold voice, without any emotional ups and downs.

Ying Xuan turned his head abruptly and saw Lu Zi'an standing on the balcony, leaning against the door frame with his back to the door frame, and half a cigarette between his fingertips.

“…… Master. Ying Xuan couldn't help but tremble, looked at him a little nervously, and his voice was a little choked: "I, I think clearly, I'm not afraid, I'm going!"

Lu Zi'an glanced at him coldly and took a slow puff of his cigarette.

Ying Xuan, who couldn't figure out the situation, had weak legs, could it be that the master had been disappointed in him......

"Be louder, I didn't hear it. ”

Ying Xuan became even more angry, and tried to raise his voice: "I, I have figured it out, I am going to ......"

Lu Zi'an said angrily: "I can't hear it!"

There was no sound for a long time, and he turned his face directly.

"Don't!" Ying Xuan took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "I'm going! I'm not afraid! I won't give up!

The corners of Lu Zi'an's lips were slightly hooked, and his eyes stared at him with deep eyes, and he raised his voice: "Be louder!"

Maybe it was because of the shouting just now, Ying Xuan didn't feel so nervous, so he simply let go and shouted loudly: "I really love it!"

Really love, love, love, love......

The voice echoed in the room, Ying Xuan's eyes were shining, and the whole person was full of vitality.

"That's right. Lu Zi'an extinguished the cigarette and nodded with satisfaction: "Failure is not terrible, the terrible thing is that you don't dare to try, you prepare well tomorrow, remember, you will not only represent me the day after tomorrow, but also represent yourself." ”

This is his first official appearance as a wood carver.

Ying Xuan didn't hesitate anymore and nodded vigorously: "Yes! I will definitely prepare well!"

I won't embarrass Master!

Lu Zi'an smiled and walked over from him: "Come here." ”

At this time, Ying Xuan saw that at some point, there was a portrait of Lu Ban on the cabinet.

Lu Zi'an lit six incense sticks with a candle flame and handed three to him.

Ying Xuan caught it stupidly and followed him to salute Lu Ban.

Inserting the incense on the incense burner, Lu Zian sat down on the sofa upright: "Pour a cup of tea." ”

"Oh, yes. Ying Xuan naturally went to pour a cup of tea and handed it over with both hands.

But Lu Zi'an didn't answer, but glanced at him: "Kneel." ”

What?

Ying Xuan was stunned, a little confused, not quite understanding what was going on, but he still knelt down honestly.

Holding a teacup in his hand, he didn't spill a drop.

This stupid boy.

Lu Zi'an was a little funny and angry, and seeing that he didn't move, he simply prompted: "What about the post." ”

……

At that moment, Ying Xuan froze completely.

What post?

Apprenticeship, of course!

In just three words, it seemed to add a fire to Ying Xuan's heart, burning him all over his body.

His face turned even redder, his heart beat violently, and his whole body was as excited as if he was on fire, and he put the teacup on the coffee table tremblingly, took out a letter of apprenticeship from his jacket pocket and held it up carefully: "Please take the post, Master." ”

"Hmm. Lu Zi'an stretched out his hand to take the post, obviously, this post has been written for a long time, and the edges are a little fluffy, but it is rare that it is extremely well protected and has very few creases.

When I opened it, although the words and sentences were a little jerky, the words were written extremely neatly, and it was obvious that the person who wrote was very serious.

After reading it, Lu Zi'an took the teacup raised by Ying Xuan with satisfaction and took a sip.

Ying Xuan didn't hesitate, bang bang and kowtowed three heads directly, and a few drops of water were faintly visible on the ground.

"Your foundation is very good, but the artistic conception is slightly lacking, so you have to practice diligently in the future. Lu Zi'an gently put the teacup on the coffee table: "Get up." ”

"Master Xie!" Ying Xuan sniffed and said loudly, "I will definitely not insult the master!"

On this day, he has been waiting for Lu Zi'an since the day he met him.

He's finally here!

Looking at his look of a lost brother, Lu Zi'an pressed the corner of his forehead with a headache: "Well, when the things on your side are done, you can go back to Changyan directly with your things, Miss Chen will arrange someone to send you, and when the things here in Hangzhou are over, I will take your juniors and disciples back to Changyan, and then there will be a formal apprenticeship ceremony." ”

"Okay Master!" Ying Xuan was excited.

Oh, nervous? What's that? Can you eat it?

He is now Master Lu's apprentice!

This is what Lu Zi'an wants.

He felt that this should give Ying Xuan confidence, and now it seems that it is still useful.

As his eldest apprentice, Ying Xuan must have the ability to take charge of himself.

It is useless for him to learn these skills alone, he wants to pass them on.

What is the point of what he has done if he has studied them and reappeared in the world, only to die in his hands?

Inheritance and inheritance, naturally is to spread the glory and inherit the future!

The next day, Lu Zi'an went directly to Hangzhou, and Master Yang personally came to pick up the plane.

"Master Lu, someone has come to you in the past two days, saying that it is from the Suzhou Garden Design Bureau, and I have sent everyone else who came to you, but you may have to come by yourself for this. Master Yang smiled and chatted with him as he walked.

Lu Zi'an had clothes here, so he didn't bring anything.

Suzhou Garden Design Bureau?

He thought about it carefully, oh, by the way, that time a man named Wang Ruimeng seemed to have come to discuss with him to buy a stone carving, but he didn't want to do it later.

During the chat, Master Yang told Lu Zi'an in detail about the current situation, and after his adjustment last time, the lacquer art group made rapid progress and never made any mistakes.

As a result, as soon as he walked downstairs to the residence, a person rushed over directly and looked at him excitedly: "Master Lu! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

It was Wang Ruimeng.

Lu Zi'an shook hands with him: "Hello, Mr. Wang." ”

"Master Lu, I came this time to ask you to make stone carvings, take a look, what I found!" Wang Ruimeng looked mysterious and handed over a stack of photos.

What, so mysterious.

Lu Zi'an didn't care at first, but just glanced at it, and his eyes were a little frozen: "This is...... Wood grain jade?"
