Chapter 85
Speaking of Sizhen, I really have to talk about the jade carving flower in my hometown that blooms on the stone. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info possible, many people, there are a few satisfactory toys at home, such as root carving, brand painting, blue and white porcelain, inkstone, calligraphy and painting; Perhaps, some people have been to many famous ancient towns, and have seen a lot of characteristic scenery and humanities, which can be described as well-informed; But I want to say that the blossoming of the stone is inevitably a little strange.
Yes, my hometown is located in the southwest of Henan, in the old days it was a wharf at the source of the Hanshui waterway, and in the past there was the title of "carrying the stones of the eight mountains, looking at the things of the world, gathering the differences of the four directions, and picking the pen of all things"; I remember that when I was a child, it was still a collective economic model, and cooperatives and other craft processing industries emerged early in the town, such as silk, jade carving, carpets, blue and white porcelain kilns, dyeing and weaving canvases, and so on. Speaking of cooperatives, in fact, there are no factories, no wages, and the staff are all generations of artists handed down from generation to generation. Of course, there is no roster of workers, if there is work to do, go to do it for a day, and there are some craft work, you can also bring it home, no one cares, just get it done. Later, I went to study far away, and after finishing my studies, I went to teach in a technical school, and I rarely visited my relatives and returned to my hometown; As for the flowering of the stones in this town, it is also recently, I want to help a friend buy a jade bracelet, just right, on the one hand, I can visit my hometown, and on the other hand, I have a friendship, so I gladly visited the town after a long absence.
The town, named after the temple in successive dynasties, has been used to this day; To go to the town, now it is also very convenient, the road is very handsome and straight, all four lanes, the road is a pine forest, poplar forest, the west side of the forest is a very beautiful Zhao River, passing through the temple town. Calm the river, walk less than six kilometers, and you will reach the town. The southernmost side of the town near the river, is the ancient style building of the imitation Song Dynasty, this is the most "jade pen" a big market, from the outside to the inside, everything that can be seen, all are the language of the stone, all are the painting on the stone, all are the rhyme of the stone, all are the music flowing out of the stone. Especially the huge strange stone, the stone carved into a temple town jade carving craft chronology, of course, there are also the temple of the past generations of Zen Buddha monks, love jade, love jade carving and other story fragments; There are also Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the town's talents, lifting people, carrying jade for the bone joint, Qingfeng for the legend of the jade people; Of course, there are also the stories of the jade ancestor's wonderful hands and the jade hall of the temple carved into flowers. Not to mention this, go inward, it is one shop after another, the business is classified, about the first floor is pendants, that is, bracelets, bracelets, jade pendants; The second layer is ornaments, that is, landscapes, birds and beasts; If you look at a market, you will probably know the type of jade, the origin of jade and the characteristics of jade. I don't know very much, but I know a little bit since I was a child, and of course, to understand it, it's easy and fast. Let's talk about it first, the hardness bottom, that is, the soft material, the most common is the Xiuyu in the Northeast and the popular Afghan jade in recent years, they are green and white, easy to distinguish; The hardness is the highest in Nanyang's jade and Myanmar's jade, the top color of Nanyang jade is based on green, and the jade is best in jade; However, look at the material is not all, but also look at the processing technology, that is, the painting environment of the jade carving works, the supreme is the creator's plot, artistic conception, painting vein, technique, the most valuable is to borrow the natural color of the material, natural painting, add to the work; To be honest, looking at a jade carving work, such as brewing a cup of tea, sipping a sip of fun, listening to the rhyme of painting, watching the jade soul, touching the jade bone, understanding the jade spirit, and feeling the life, is elegant. Look at the jade, it is said that it also talks about a fate, if you see a piece at first sight, you will form a jade relationship with this jade, even if you run another day to see the market, in the end still hold on to this piece, and then read it, look at it, sigh it, touch it, hide it, and never forget this fate.
From this largest market out, is the greenhouse stall of the monopoly market, the market is very large, there are several, there are selling agate, called red goods, there are also selling pendants in the big market, the price is slightly lower, but to carefully identify. Most of the jade goods here are processed by individuals, and some are collected from others, in short, they will not open you a big price difference.
After watching the market, I went to the artist's house to see how these living jade flowers that can talk to the soul are processed. In fact, every artist has a different understanding of jade, and their works are not the same, such as: Ronghua Fugui, Shoubi Nanshan, Bafang Laicai, Purple Qi Donglai and other works, their conceptual conception, the informativeness of the works, and the style of the works are all contending with a hundred flowers. After the stone is understood, it is time to draw, and this drawing itself is a creation, but the drawing work is only a sketch of the soul of the jade that will come out; Next, it is to use a knife to carve coarsely and finely, of course, this technique, we can not learn, such as writing, painting, to have many years of precipitation and skills.
The blooming of the stones on the temple is strange, because the stones here all come from all directions; The blooming stones have gone to the end of their lives. I sigh all the time, I am always surprised, those artists who walked out of the stone, in their fingering, in addition to the flower growing on the ancestors, what is brighter is the flower of their thoughts, is the original is the current dynasty fighting grass to win, laughter from both sides. In ancient times, the grass fighting game, the grass fighting victory, was very happy. Nowadays, games are compared to life, and every win or loss is very important, whether you lose or win, you are all worried and haggard.
There are joys, sorrows, sorrows, resentments and hatreds in the world, just as there are four senses in the world: sweet and sour.
The firewood door of the small courtyard is ajar, and it is that the person has not returned. He has not returned, because of what he thinks in his heart, so he can't forget his existence. The Yi people are guarding, because they are wandering, so they can't come quickly. Fortune and misfortune depend on each other in the world, and everything has no fixed point.
There are many kinds of flows in life. For example, separating a person and meeting a new person is the flow of love; Falling in love with coffee, but falling in love with tea, is the flow of taste; The young man has nothing to do, and the young man has a strong mind, which is the flow of the heart; Once the wind and rain are calm, the mud and sand are falling, which is the flow of fortune.
The most feared thing about circulation is time, and other circulation can be traced back to the past, but once time is gone, it will never return.
Qingqing Zijin, my heart, is Shaoguang just right; Qingqingzi Pei, I think about it, and I miss it strongly. Shao is bright, longing, tossing and turning, and wandering. After entering the acacia door, I know that I am lovesick, and I don't see it for a day, such as every three autumns. It is in this way that innocent and flawless thoughts can moisten perception and soak people's hearts. The fairy flowers on the stone are the polishing of their palms, the twisting and kneading of their years, and the sleeping jade souls are lit, lit, lit up in people's hearts, and lit up in people's cherished thoughts.
