If it weren't for seeing it with his own eyes, no one would have believed that Fang Yi's hands were so dexterous, an ordinary carving knife seemed to come to life in his hands, constantly walking on that piece of seed, and every time he touched it, some jade crumbs would be scattered.

After Fang Yi punched a hole in the horse's nose, he used a carving knife to modify it, and the whole seal was completed, and the rest was to engrave the words on the seal, which was also an important sign of the quality of a seal.

"I really didn't see that you kid has such a craft......"

Looking at the crystal moist seal in the water, Yu Xuan's eyes were about to shine, the neighing horse's head was vivid, and the buttons carved by Fang Yi made him very satisfied, in Yu Xuan's opinion, Fang Yi's jade carving craftsmanship was not much better than the craftsmanship of some ancient craftsmen.

"I also have a lot of seal stones there, and you can make ......a few more for me when you have time."

Looking at the seal in the water, Yu Xuan liked it more and more, because although Fang Yi's technique was wild, it was exactly like this, his carving was less shackled, it looked whimsical, more natural roughness, but the delicacy was not inferior to those masters.

Yu Xuan has played miscellaneous all his life, but he has never seen Fang Yi's carving style, Yu Xuan believes that as long as Fang Yi is willing to take on work from the outside world, it is estimated that their family will be full of people immediately, and people who come to ask for seals will be able to squeeze through the threshold of Fang Yi's family.

"Cheng, Yu Lao, just go back and have someone send it over......"

As he spoke, Fang Yi picked up the seal in the water, wiped it carefully with a dry cloth, took a brush recruited by Gu Junshan, and wrote the four seal characters "Yu Ziang Yin" on the plane of the seal.

"Good words!" Yu Xuan, who almost put his head in front of the seal, praised it in his mouth, not to mention Fang Yi's calligraphy, it was in the four seal characters, and the fault was not someone who had studied it. It is generally impossible to write.

"Fang Yi, what technique do you use to engrave words?"

Seeing that Fang Yi had changed a carving knife, Yu Xuan's heart actually became a little nervous, because the seal carved from this seed material had been perfect so far. Yu Xuansheng was afraid that Fang Yi would fall short when he carved the words at the end.

"What......'s the method?

Fang Yi glanced at Yu Xuan a little strangely, when the old Taoist priest taught him to engrave words on the stone, he didn't talk about any techniques, he just started practicing directly with a carving knife, otherwise how could Fang Yi say that he was born in a wild road.

"Yes. You didn't ask me, how did you come here, I really don't know how your master taught you?"

After hearing Fang Yi's words, Yu Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, he heard Sun Lianda say Fang Yi's origin, and after seeing Fang Yi's revealed hand, Yu Xuan was also curious about Fang Yi's mysterious master.

"Master leads the way in, and cultivation depends on personal ......"

After Fang Yi replied with a smile, he reined in his thoughts, he had always engraved words in one go. To engrave so many stroke stripes on a small seal is also a test for Fang Yi, and there is no room for the slightest distraction.

Taking a deep breath, he fixed the seal with his left hand, and his right hand moved quickly, and the slender carving knife poured along the words written by Fang Yi with a brush, and dozens of strokes would only raise the carving knife when Fang Yi changed words, and continue to engrave the next word.

However, in the eyes of these onlookers, Fang Yi's knife seemed to be without the slightest pause, and everyone held their breath. For fear that an inadvertent disturbance would disturb Fang Yi and make him lose his efforts.

"Okay, it's done after cleaning and retouching......"

That is, in just a minute or two, Fang Yi let out a long breath. The carving knife and the seal were separated, but the surface of the seal was completely covered with jade debris, and others could not read the font on it.

At this time, Fang Yi also had sweat on his forehead, you know, these four words are engraved. Compared with the carved button ornament he just now, it is more consuming, because the seal character is different from the current simplified character, its strokes are not straight, in addition to showing the simplicity of the seal character, there is also a feeling of softness.

Therefore, in this short period of more than a minute, Fang Yi not only had to concentrate all his mind on the seal, but also had to use his true qi to control the movements of his hands, because as long as there was a little out of shape and a wrong stroke was engraved, the entire seal would be considered invalid.

"Brother Sun, you ...... Do you see what method Fang Yi used?"

Seeing Fang Yi's action in one go, Yu Xuan's expression was a little excited, and he said in a loud voice: "What is a punching knife? This is a punching knife, those so-called masters have engraved a knife intermittently, can that also be called a punching knife?"

"What do you mean?" Fang Yi, who had adjusted his breathing, raised his head when he heard this, he had indeed never heard of this term.

"Fang Yi, it seems that I will still teach you more theoretical things in the future......"

Hearing his disciple's words, Sun Lianda couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said: "The engraving process of the seal is divided into two types: punching knife and cutting knife......

The cutter is in the process of engraving, more cautious, usually with a short-range knife continuous cutting, basically every stroke has to pause, just like the astringent pen in calligraphy, but it can show the strength of the condensed, thick and steady atmosphere to ......"

"Teacher, I really don't know ...... of this punching knife and cutting knife."

Fang Yi touched his head when he heard this, when he first practiced engraving, he didn't have the current speed, he only practiced it after a long time, but although Fang Yi was very fast, the kind of strong condensation in the knife could also be reflected in his knife technique.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, if you can make something, that's the real skill......"

When Sun Lianda explained to Fang Yi the difference between punching knives and cutting knives, Yu Xuan had already cleaned the text part of the seal, and looking at the words that were not very obvious on it, Yu Xuan's eyes were about to shine.

"Hurry up, Fang Yi, hurry up and deal with the side......" Yu Xuan stuffed the seal into Fang Yi's hand, turned back to Gu Junshan and said, "Mr. Gu, find some ink clay and ask for the best kind of ......"

At this time, Yu Xuan, like a child seeing his beloved toy, couldn't wait to immediately dip it in ink and show his name on the paper.

"Old Yu, don't you need to polish and then put on the ink?"

Hearing Yu Xuan's words, Fang Yi was stunned for a moment, because jade is a thing that needs to be polished after it is made, and only the polished jade can show that kind of crystal lubricated luster, just like the seal in Fang Yi's hand now, after polishing and then looking at it, it will definitely be improved by several grades.

However, it is not only a matter of Fang Yi, in the jade carving industry, carving and polishing seem to be one, but in fact they are separated, a good polishing master, sometimes more difficult to find than a master-level jade carving craftsman.

"No need to polish ......"

Yu Xuan shook his head and said, "In fact, human hands are similar to the four or five thousand mesh sandpaper used for polishing, as long as you often use your hands to play, the effect of jade will not be worse than that after polishing, I will carry this thing with me, just play more in the future......"

In fact, jade polishing is an indispensable part of jade molding under normal circumstances, but when Yu Xuan was cleaning the seal just now, he found that the seal was very lubricated and did not have the astringency after ordinary jade carving, so Yu Xuan made such a decision.

"Teacher Yu, the ink clay has been found, this is the best eight-treasure ink clay, can you see if it is suitable for use?" Gu Junshan hurriedly returned to the conference room with a box of ink ink, he also wanted to see if the words engraved by Fang Yi at the end were the icing on the cake for this seal, or a failure?

"Well, the Eight Treasures Seal Clay is not bad, it can be worthy of this seal......"

As the main component of the seal, the quality of the ink clay is undoubtedly very important, the main material of the eight treasures of the ink clay that Gu Junshan took is cinnabar, which looks vermilion, bright and eye-catching, Yu Xuan nodded after smelling the taste, pinched the seal with both hands, and pressed the bottom of it on the ink.

"Fang Yi, are you using a small seal?"

The seal was pressed the paper, and after Yu Xuan picked up the seal, the four seal characters with bright red color and smooth strokes jumped on the paper, but they were impartial, just in the middle of the seal.

"Well, it's a small seal...... Fang Yi nodded and said, "I originally wanted to use a big seal, but the big seal is not as regular as the small seal, Yu Lao, are you not satisfied?"

"Satisfied, satisfied......" Yu Xuan nodded hurriedly, suddenly came to his senses, looked at Fang Yi, and asked, "Fang Yi, do you know how to use the big seal?"

The small seal is the script formed after the unification of the six countries by Qin Shi Huang, which is composed on the basis of the big seal, and the big seal is also called the ancient character, including the oracle bone inscription, the golden inscription and the six national characters at that time, which is far more complex than the small seal.

"Both Oracle and Jin Wen know a little bit about ......"

Fang Yi replied casually, he still remembered that when he was young, his master used to have an oracle bone in his hand, but then he didn't know where it was gotten by the old Taoist priest, and Fang Yi never saw it again when he grew up.

"Your master is a very difficult character......

After hearing Fang Yi's words, Yu Xuan couldn't help but sigh, you must know that the oracle bone inscription and the golden inscription have been the research objects of paleographers until now, and there are many hieroglyphs in which they have not been able to find a corresponding text.

What's more, there are fewer and fewer old professors who specialize in studying these ancient characters, so although Fang Yi said that he only knew a little, but in the university, he was afraid that he could be a lecturer, not to mention Fang Yi's master, who was definitely a master-level expert.

After seeing Fang Yi's craftsmanship in carving jade, Yu Xuan no longer doubted his words, but his mood was the same as Sun Lianda when he first met Fang Yi before, and he regretted that he couldn't see Fang Yi's master. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
