Chapter 154: Half Knife Mud

For the next week, he stayed at home and devoted himself to practicing the Linglong Knife, the days seemed to go back to before, calm and natural, Su Yuan enjoyed this feeling very much, every day was fulfilling, and every time he completed his goal, the small progress was exciting.

"Zero-seven!"

As if entering a mysterious realm, the heart is like an ancient well, the mirror enters the stage, any subtle changes between the fingers are reflected in the mind for the first time, and the body can make an instinctive reaction in an instant, and the movements are smooth and smooth, without the slightest smoke and fire.

"Zero-six!"

The trimming knife pressed down sharply, and without measuring, you can know that it has been one step closer by feeling. Not only that, but even the collision feeling of the knife surface touching the tiny particles is clear every time.

Su Yuan incarnated as the most sophisticated instrument, his heart was like stopping water, the ancient well had no waves, he was engrossed, his wrist drove his fingers, and he swiped quickly along the arc.

"Zero-five!"

The speed under his feet is getting faster and faster, the plain tires are spinning faster, and the trajectory is basically invisible to outsiders. But in his eyes, all the details are getting slower and slower, as if playing in slow motion, and no wind or grass can escape a pair of fiery eyes.

Just when the speed reached the fastest, the right hand was like a dragonfly dotting water, and the knife quickly cut in from a wonderful angle, instantly raising a burst of dust, between the electric light and flint, as if the morning valley was a mist, ethereal and illusory, like a mirage, and soon disappeared.

"It's done!"

Suddenly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly let go of his feet, allowing the spin to gradually slow down, and finally stopped.

Pick up the plain tire, hold it high to the sun, as thin as cicada wings, the slightest fluorescence through the tire wall, under the refraction, shining, warm and moist like jade.

Close your eyes, recall the wonderful feeling just now, and after many days of practice, the quantitative change finally caused the qualitative change, and the exquisite knife was thoroughly mastered.

Blessed as his heart, he looked up suddenly, only to see the sunset, in the afterglow of the sunset, the sky blue in the white clouds, the clouds are clearly outlined, oblate, tile-shaped, like pieces of fish scales.

Layers are dense like water waves, arranged in groups, rows, and waves. The sunset shines from afar, and the glow is endless, colorful and dazzling.

The melon vines are horizontal on the grass shore, and the fish scale clouds are lined with sunset days!

Suddenly, the whole body trembled like electricity, and all the accumulation collapsed like a flood. A hint of enlightenment flashed through my mind, and I had a new understanding of beauty.

If the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty show a majestic and heroic, myriad weather, and a strong scene of Jin Ge Iron Horse, then the Song Dynasty shows a leisurely and elegant, quiet and elegant, soft and delicate elegant attitude.

In his life, the young talent was carried forward, so he was Tang style, and he thought deeply in the evening, which was dyed in Song tune.

After the dream, the stairs are locked, and the curtain hangs low when you wake up. Last year, when the spring hatred came. The falling flowers are independent, and the micro swifts are flying.

The green leaves of the Tibetan warbler, the red curtain is separated by the swallow, and the incense of the furnace is quietly turned by the gossamer; When I woke up from a melancholy dream, the slanting sun shone deep into the courtyard.

A gentleman is like jade, and the beauty of jade lies in the extreme of splendor and the ordinary artistic conception. The jade spirit of the celadon of the Song Dynasty is subtle but not revealed, and there is brilliance inside, but the subtle and diluted brilliance is extremely gorgeous and extremely plain.

Not yet luxurious, not curious, love nature, chew life. The persistent pursuit of exquisite life has achieved the beauty of Song porcelain!

The beauty is restrained, gentle, and subtle, emphasizing the inner feelings, which are simple and unpretentious and contain a unique charm.

From the imperial bureaucracy to the gentry and literati, they constituted a larger and more literate class than any other dynasty. Under the initiative of Cheng Zhu Lixue, he pays attention to the unity of nature and man, and the beauty of learning from things.

Summed up in one sentence: heavenly and fresh, sparse and refined.

Conforms to the aesthetic viewpoint of nature, plain and innocent, medium and thick and simple, and at the same time takes this as the standard, pursuing naturalism that returns to the basics.

The beautiful glaze is natural, sometimes dotted with natural openings, elegant, pure and evocative, like a fantasy dome. It is no longer simply about practicality, but has a unique personality and elegant shape.

Craftsmen use different thicknesses, straightnesses, lengths, and curves to combine them into different shapes. Some are well-proportioned and beautiful, some are light and pretty, and some are simple and elegant.

Because of advocating natural subtlety, more attention is paid to the embryo, shape, and glaze color of the porcelain itself, and a little carving is carried out, regardless of the shape, glaze color, and ornamentation, all of which pursue natural perfection. Elegant and quiet, just like clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving, truly set the predecessors, but also for the later generations of classics.

No wonder there are only eight words to evaluate the porcelain of the Song Dynasty:

Without a word, it's all romantic!

Su Yuan picked up the knife again, and he was at ease, flowing smoothly and chicly. Like an antelope hanging its horns, there is no trace to be found. Therefore, it is wonderful and exquisite, and it cannot be bored.

Such as the sound in the air, the color in the picture, the moon in the water, the image in the mirror, the words are endless and the meaning is endless.

The knife line is like a flowing cloud, and the flowers are full of moons!

Su Yuan picked up the plain tire, Liuyun pulled it to 0.6, and the exquisite knife repaired the blank, the icing on the cake complemented each other.

The sunlight shines through the thin wall of the cicada's wings, leaving the stars dazzling, as if the Milky Way has fallen, which is beautiful.

Flying down three thousand feet,

It is suspected that the Milky Way fell for nine days.

After hard training, the two major skills of Hao 19 were finally mastered, and the craft was officially entered into the room, and like the sword, porcelain also had three decisive elements.

Tire, glaze, burn!

Regardless of the blank repair is the foundation, through the process of turning the clay into a shape, the high-rise building is the most important thing for celadon.

Then there is the glaze, the reason why porcelain can be popular all over the world, the unpredictable color is the key to shocking, but also the core secret of the process.

Finally, it is into the kiln, like the quenching of the sword, the slightest mistake is thousands of miles, all by experience, which is the true meaning of porcelain called the art of clay fire.

Su Yuan put down the plain tire, washed his hands, and the next step is to find a way to solve it by himself, the so-called celadon actually has seven or eight colors, and green only represents a monochrome, pure as one, warm as jade.

Called Mao Zhengcong, made an appointment to meet in the afternoon, and drove to Mao's workshop again, just as a customer placed an order, Mao Zhengcong repaired the blank by himself.

Seeing Su Yuan's arrival, he did not shy away from it, picked up the plain tire with his left hand, held the knife in his right hand, looked focused, first smeared a layer of water with a brush on the plain tire, and the carving knife moved outward, half of it was exposed, and the lines were deep and shallow, so that the plain tire was oblique.

"Half a knife!"

Su Yuan's eyes lit up, this is the legendary half-knife mud?

Mao Zhengcong held his breath and concentrated, preoccupied, only the plain tire and the knife in his hand, carved a three-dimensional effect pattern on the porcelain blank less than a millimeter thick.

The lines are simple, the body is slender, the turns are smooth, and the contrast is strong. Completely abandon the complicated, ornamental, luxurious, and impetuous court style since the Qing Dynasty.

With a concise, ethereal, simple and bright style, the porcelain was replaced by a relaxed, lively, vivid and flexible style.
