Chapter 90: The Dragon in the Clouds
The cattle in the valley looked up from time to time, and then looked down to eat the tender green grass, several houses sat next to the cowshed, and the lake reflected a blue sky and white clouds, everything seemed peaceful and peaceful.
"There is still grass in your valley. Father Pei was a little surprised.
"Ha, in the Laifeng Valley, where the cattle farm is located, there is still a gap between the temperature and the outside of the valley, and it is warmer inside, come, uncle, be careful. Ran Fei replied, and the two of them came down from the narrow bridge.
"It cost a lot of money, right?" said Pei's father.
"Actually, to be correct, it didn't cost anything to come to Fenggu, it was given when renting a farm. Ran Fei replied truthfully.
Father Pei nodded, quite surprised: "Just the area in this valley, you have earned a lot." ”
"Before Fenggu was cleaned up, it was a place overgrown with weeds and poisons, and just cleaning up this valley cost me a lot of money. Ran Fei said, in fact, where is the money, do the rat-headed orcs also want money? But at the beginning, I asked how much it would cost to clean up Laifeng Valley, but basically, the people who inquired knew that the poison in Laifeng Valley was daunted, and it was still a matter of life.
"Hey, this stele is good, it's definitely out of the master's hand, tsk. Pei's father noticed the stone tablet next to him.
Alas, why do you have one to worry about, Ran Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Father Pei gently rubbed the stone tablet that said Laifeng Valley, the dragon and phoenix patterns on it are also meticulous, and the stone tablet material is also hard with a hint of soft and slippery feeling, like ice.
"Xiao Fei, which master have you asked to make a stone tablet that can be easily visited by me?" Father Pei called Ran Fei for the first time.
Ran Fei was a little flattered, and said with some embarrassment: "Uncle, this is not a master's work, so I carved it casually." ”
"You kid! Do you understand or I understand! I have seen the stone carvings for decades, this is definitely a master's work, come, you see, this dragon and phoenix double auspicious head, as if it was carved out of the stone tablet, wrapped around the entire stone tablet, as if the stone tablet with this inscription is a whole, the dragon and phoenix are things outside the sky, attracted by the stone tablet, so as to surround the side...... "Pei's father pointed at the stone tablet, and his mouth also "introduced" the word.
Ran Fei's expression was a little strange, whether it was carved by you or me, how do you feel that you are more familiar than me.
"Uncle, I'm really not a master, this is what I usually don't carve, and I also felt that I couldn't hang a signboard at that time, so I carved a stone tablet to make a door face, a signboard. Ran Fei explained.
Father Pei, who was talking endlessly, suddenly froze like a cassette, and turned his head stiffly: "You carved it?"
"Ah...... I carved it, what's wrong, uncle. Ran Fei looked at Pei's father's appearance, as if he had been hit, and replied softly, always prepared, afraid that this old man would not be able to stand the stimulation and fainted.
Father Pei looked at Ran Fei suspiciously, stared at the stele carefully, hesitated for a while, and shook his head: "Xiaofei, it's not that my uncle doesn't believe you, it's really too exaggerated, you know the craftsmanship of this stone stele, let me tell you, in less than 20 years, you will never be able to take it down, and with this kind of material, this level of carving, this stone tablet is at least 7 figures." ”
Ran Fei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I'm not going to sell it, I'm bored of finding a stone carved in the valley, and I don't know if there is such a stone in the valley." ”
"That's good, I wouldn't want my daughter to marry someone who has a money eye. Father Pei nodded appreciatively, then thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "Xiaofei, can you carve another one, um~ It's not that I don't believe you, I just want one as a souvenir." ”
Ran Fei smiled and nodded: "Of course it's no problem, uncle, I'll go find a better water stone." ”
Father Pei was stunned for a moment, what do you mean, this is.
I saw Ran Fei quickly take off his coat, put on his pants, and jumped into the lake of Fenggu.
What the hell am I!
Pei's father ran to the lake in horror, this kid has something wrong with his brain, this winter, he jumped when he said it.
Ran Fei really came down to look for stones, but this is not the key, the most important thing is that his knife used for carving, chisel and the like are in the tribe.
After taking out the tools from the tribe, I found a random stone that looked pleasing to the eye, mainly because the light was too dark and I didn't dare to dive deeply.
But what Ran Fei didn't know was that when he swam to the water, a pair of eyes like light bulbs were staring at him behind him, and he disappeared into the water again when he saw that Ran Fei was not close to the bottom of the lake.
"Hey, you kid, you jumped down anyway, it's a cold day, come up and change your clothes first, and bake the fire. Father Pei blamed.
Ran Fei smiled, and then found a room where the breeder lived, and casually found two clothes for work, and tools in his hand, Pei's father didn't pay attention, waiting for Ran Fei to change his clothes and come out, Pei's father thought that he took it in the house.
The stone in Ran Fei's hand was about the size of an adult's head, and the whole stone was blue-gray, with some white spots, which didn't look very good.
Pei's father didn't say a word, the two of them sat next to Xiao Sun (Xiao Sun baked the stove), Ran Fei took out the chisel from his hand, and first chiseled a vague shape on the surface of the stone.
Father Pei looked at the movements in Ran Fei's hand with a serious face.
Unconsciously, two hours passed, and the stone in Ran Fei's hand had already taken on a general shape.
The four dragons circled and staggered, and the white spots were slightly carved by Ran Fei, like white clouds.
The four dragons seemed to be spreading clouds and rain among the clouds, and Ran Fei also changed the movements of each dragon a little in a timely manner.
There are four claws tucked in the abdomen, as if flying up with all their might.
There is a dragon's mouth wide open, and the dragon's whiskers float backwards, glaring angrily.
There is a shuttle between the clouds, and only the dragon head and half of the dragon body can be faintly seen.
There is also a dragon, with a solemn expression, the whole dragon body is upright, and the dragon head is facing Ran Fei, as if it will rush out at any time.
This lifelike appearance made Pei's father next to him excited, but he didn't dare to pant loudly, for fear of alarming Ran Fei, who was carefully carving next to him.
Ran Fei is carving details of the dragon's body at the moment, scales, dragon tail, and so on.
And Father Pei was surprised to find that on the neck of each dragon, there is an inverted scale, which must be the reverse scale of the dragon!
This kind of small details and powerful carving skills made Pei's father forget that the hairy boy next to him was his future son-in-law at the moment, and only thought that next to him was a master who had studied in the carving industry all his life.
Finally, the whole shape was carved completely, and Pei's father looked at the whole work with some indescribable feelings, and always felt that something was almost something: "Master......"
"Ahh......h
"Ahem, Xiaofei. Father Pei's face was a little embarrassed, and then he asked curiously: "I always feel that this little stone sculpture is almost something like the stone tablet outside, why is this?"
"Haha, it's really something missing, angry!" Ran Fei looked confident like a real master carver at the moment.
"Angry?" muttered Pei's father.
"Yes, uncle, the so-called finishing touch, people's eyes can see a person's temperament, and the same is true for longan!" Ran Fei said.
"Oh?" Father Pei was a little curious.
Ran Fei stopped talking, took out a small carving knife only the thickness of a finger, and carved the eyes of the cloud dragon very carefully and carefully.
Waiting for the dragon's eye to be carved out, Pei's father's eyes lit up, and sure enough, as soon as the dragon's eye was carved, the dragon seemed to reveal a majestic aura (when the pen and ink saw the dragon's eye carved in stone for the first time, I couldn't help but feel a little hairy in my heart, I don't know if you have it.) )。
Just as Ran Fei was about to carve the dragon's eye of the last dragon, a shout suddenly came from outside.
"Dad, Ran Fei. Pei Yan shouted outside, his parents were there, and Pei Yan was embarrassed to call himself a nickname for Ran Fei.
No matter how strong Ran Fei's heart was, he couldn't help but be affected by the sound, and the carving knife in his hand stabbed and slashed at the place where he was originally going to carve the dragon's eye.
"Oops!" Father Pei couldn't help but sigh hatefully.
Pei Yan and Pei Mu heard the sound and found the house, and when they walked in, they found two men sitting on a sofa with a stove in front of them, Ran Fei was holding a carving knife and a stone in his hand, and Pei's father was distressed.
"Hey, old man, when did you have such a good relationship with Xiaofei. Pei Mu asked with a smile.
"Alas. Father Pei just sighed, he was still distressed that this stone sculpture might be scrapped.
Pei Yan was a little puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask easily, so he looked at Ran Fei with an inquiring look.
Ran Fei shrugged, saying that he didn't know how to persuade him, he didn't feel too sorry for this stone carving, and it would be good to spend some time finding another stone carving, but this white-spotted limestone is estimated to be difficult to find, and the cloud dragon may have to be replaced by another dragon.
"Alas, as soon as the two of you come, you look at the stone carving in Xiao Fei's hand, it is a gap, alas, a good work is ruined like this. Father Pei shook his head while carefully taking the cloud dragon, pointing at the dragon standing upright, and the knife edge at the dragon's eye was very conspicuous.
Pei Yan was a little overwhelmed: "I'm sorry, I'm ...... I just want to give you dinner. ”
Originally, Ran Fei felt that it was nothing, but when he heard Pei Yan's tone, he suddenly felt distressed.
"Hey, Yan Yan, no one blames you, don't be wronged, uncle, I just thought of a way to change this. Ran Fei comforted Pei Yan first, and then said to Pei's father.
Father Pei handed over the Yunjian Dragon in his hand in surprise, in fact, he didn't want to blame Pei Yan just now, but he felt that it was really a pity.
However, at this time, several people looked at Ran Fei to see how Ran Fei "turned decay into magic".
Ran Fei actually figured out a way just now, why not carve a dragon eye at the edge of the knife, and along the edge of the knife, this dragon eye appeared, like a dragon god who had fought against evil demons, and Father Pei next to him even saw the murderous aura from the scarred dragon eye, and the majesty of the only one.
