Chapter 24 Jinling Clay Figures

"It's a young man who is still in college. ”

Old Man Shi shook his head.

Although Ye Xiaochen is very young and has a high level of craftsmanship, it is not an exaggeration to call him a master.

Eighteen Arhats made him place great hopes on Ye Xiaochen.

"Young man?"

Master Li was stunned, "Could it be a master disciple?"

"I don't know if it's a master's high apprentice, but this young man is at a very good level. ”

Old Man Shi said with a smile.

Master Li didn't believe it.

In his impression, although there are several good seedlings in the clay sculpture industry, such as Zhang Xiaochuan, the heir of the clay figure Zhang, although he is only twenty-five years old, he has already been a teacher, and he has ninety percent of his father's clay sculpture skills.

However, he can't say anything.

Old Man Shi handed over the clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva to others for restoration, which must have been well thought out.

Perhaps, there is a clay sculpture master behind that young man.

As for a young man's ability to restore the clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva, he couldn't believe it.

Although the level of craftsmanship is not related to age, but to reach a high level, even if you have a high level of talent, you can't have enough life experience and long-term accumulation.

At this time, a young man walked in, "Elder Shi, that Ye Xiaochen arrived at the door of the sanatorium last time." ”

"Oh, he's coming?"

Old Man Shi's eyes lit up, and then he said to Master Li with a smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." ”

"Xiao Gong, you hurry up and call over and ask the doorman to let you go. ”

He commanded the youth.

After the young man went out, Master Li asked, "Elder Shi, didn't you say before that he had only taken away the clay sculpture of the Jizo Bodhisattva for a few days?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

Old Man Shi nodded.

"According to the normal situation, if you want to repair the clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva, even if you find a way, it will be difficult to complete the complete restoration without a month or two, so..."

Master Li said.

"You mean he didn't find a way?"

Old man Shi came back to his senses.

"Yes, it is very difficult to repair the Jizo Bodhisattva clay sculpture, not only the degree of defects, but also the difference of the cement, and in the process of firing, there will be various problems, it is difficult to achieve a perfect match, and the final bonding..."

Master Li said.

The difficulty of restoring the clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva is too great, and the time required is not trivial, and it is definitely not something that can be completed in just a few days.

In such a short period of time, I'm afraid that the restored clay sculpture has not yet dried.

Old Man Shi fell silent.

.....

Ye Xiaochen came to the door of the courtyard where Old Man Shi lived.

When he pushed the door in, he saw a young man in casual clothes sitting at the stone table under the tree, facing sideways, looking down at a piece of yellow clay in his hand, slowly pinching.

His expression is focused, as if immersed in the world of clay sculptures.

Ye Xiaochen was a little surprised, he didn't expect to meet other clay sculptors here.

Although he just glanced at it casually, he immediately saw through the level of this young man's clay sculpture.

It should be at the level of clay sculpture level 3, which is very close to level 4.

This level is not low, as long as you exercise more, break through, and turn skills into art, you can achieve a level 4 clay sculpture level.

Suddenly, the young man's brows furrowed, and he seemed to hesitate a little as he pinched his face.

Ye Xiaochen saw the problem at a glance.

"I know what the problem is, but why can't I fix it?"

The young man muttered to himself.

"Small as a bean, big as a small inch, the magic is between the similar and the unlike, limiting a part, releasing a part, is the right way, forcing perfection, is really flawed. ”

Ye Xiaochen opened his mouth to remind.

However, after he finished speaking, he realized that it was very rude for him to point out others like this.

In the field of clay sculpture technology, it seems to be very inconspicuous, but the internal circle is clear, and there are many schools in the country.

Casual remarks and pointings are tantamount to provocation.

The young man suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Xiaochen, but after discovering that it was a person younger than his age, he couldn't help but be stunned, "Who are you?"

"I'm here to visit Shi Lao, I'm sorry, I just said nonsense, don't take it to heart. ”

Ye Xiaochen said.

"Nothing, though, how do you see my problem?"

The young man Huang Jingwei looked at Ye Xiaochen curiously.

can see where his problem lies, this eye is extremely strong, indicating that his attainments in clay sculpture skills are not low.

But the question is that Ye Xiaochen is so young, how can he have such a high level?

His teacher had also said that he had problems in this area before, which was similar to what Ye Xiaochen said.

At this time, the door opened, and Mr. Shi and an elderly man walked out.

"Elder Shi, I brought the clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva. ”

Ye Xiaochen hurriedly greeted Old Man Shi.

"Ye Xiaochen, it's nothing if it's not repaired, you don't have any mental burden. ”

Old Man Shi looked at the suitcase that Ye Xiaochen was holding beside him, and it was obvious that the clay statue of the Jizo Bodhisattva was placed inside, and he immediately comforted.

Ye Xiaochen was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and understood what Old Man Shi would mean wrongly.

"Shi Lao, I have already repaired the clay sculpture, and I will send it to you today. ”

Ye Xiaochen hurriedly said.

"You've fixed it?"

Old Man Shi was shocked.

"Impossible, in just a few days, how can it be possible to repair that Jizo Bodhisattva clay sculpture? Young man, if you can't repair it, you can't repair it, you have to be honest, and Shi Lao won't blame you. ”

The elderly man next to him spoke.

Ye Xiaochen glanced at the old man, and his heart moved, it seemed that he had something to do with this young man, and it was likely that he was an old clay sculptor.

Without further ado, he began to open the suitcase, and took out a one-foot-tall clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva and placed it on the stone table.

Old Man Shi and the others were directly dumbfounded.

Because this is the clay sculpture of Jizo Bodhisattva.

Intact!

There was not a single sign of damage at all.

"Impossible!"

This was the first reaction of the old man, Master Li, who immediately rushed over and carefully examined it.

He suspected it was a counterfeit.

But after he examined it carefully, his face changed because he couldn't judge it at all.

Judging from the original part, this is definitely genuine, what is the problem with the repairable part?

I can't see any traces of the restoration!

Even if he listened to the sound inside with a slight tap, he didn't even hear any problems.

"How did you do that, young man?"

Master Li's face was full of shock, staring at Ye Xiaochen and asking impatiently.

Because the shock brought to him by this clay sculpture was too strong.

If he wants to break his head, he can't figure out how Ye Xiaochen repaired it?

"Ye Xiaochen, this is Master Li, who is a well-known master in the Jinling clay sculpture industry, you can have a good exchange of experience in clay sculpture. ”

Old Man Shi introduced Ye Xiaochen.

Judging from Master Li's reaction, this clay sculpture may have really been repaired.

"It turned out to be Master Li. I repaired this clay sculpture using a family heirloom, so I'm afraid I can't tell you. ”

Ye Xiaochen said.

In fact, when he saw the clay sculpture technique and style of that young man, he knew that the origin of this Master Li should be the Jinling clay figure faction.

The clay sculpture style and techniques in each place are very different, and now the most famous clay sculpture in the field is Jinshi clay man Zhang, Xishi clay man and Huishan clay man.

These clay figurines have masters in each generation, and they can be said to be full of talents and leading the way.

Jinling clay figures, Fengxiang clay figures, Junshan clay figures, Chaoshan clay figures, can be regarded as the second grade of clay figures, these schools also have clay sculpture masters.

As for other small schools of clay sculpture, there are quite a few,

"I'm sorry, I was abrupt. I don't see anything from this restored clay sculpture, I don't know what genre you're from?"

Master Li nodded and said.

This kind of repair technique can be called a unique skill, and it is naturally impossible to leak it casually.

Because Ye Xiaochen perfectly restored the clay sculpture of the Bodhisattva, even the expression techniques and styles of the clay sculpture also followed the original, and it was impossible to distinguish the slightest bit.

"Master Li, this is a family heirloom, and it is not famous. ”

Ye Xiaochen shook his head and said.

"Brother Ye, you are modest, with your restoration skills, it is definitely not an exaggeration to call you a master of clay sculpture. ”

Master Li shook his head and said.

He estimated that Ye Xiaochen should come from a declining small clay sculpture school, but the inheritance is relatively complete, and Ye Xiaochen is extremely talented, so he has such a high level of clay sculpture craftsmanship at such a young age.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have been absolutely hard to believe.

There is also a possibility, that is, there is a master-level master behind Ye Xiaochen.

But the problem is that such a clay sculpture master, a radish and a pit, cannot appear out of thin air.

The young man next to him was shocked when he saw the teacher's evaluation of Ye Xiaochen, thinking that Ye Xiaochen had seen his problem at a glance before, and immediately admired, it turned out that it was not a coincidence just now, but a real ability.

He suddenly became a little ashamed, his age was older than Ye Xiaochen, but the level of this clay sculpture skill was far behind.
