Appreciating the purple clay pot cannot be separated from the most basic aspects, that is, the old artists often say that there is no fixed way to make the pot, but there is a square circle in the pot.

In the past, the old man Qi once told Liu Yuhao that a good purple clay pot must be "shape, spirit, qi, and state", and it is a truly perfect work to penetrate the same qi.

Master Ge's purple sand just has the elements of a high-quality pot, although Liu Yuhao only played with it for a short time, but after putting it down, the shadow of the pot was born in his mind, which was always dangling in front of his eyes, lingering.

This is also why Liu Yuhao praised two good things in a row!

Wonder is a kind of realm, a kind of natural interest, a kind of aesthetic feeling that makes people feel its infinite taste and beauty.

Master Ge's purple sand pot can make a discerning person like Liu Yuhao feel wonderful, it must be the best in the pot and the best purple sand.

Xu Lao didn't seem to be satisfied with Liu Yuhao's simple appreciation, waved his hand and said, "Young man, since you said it well, then you have to tell us a reason!" ”

Master Ge smiled faintly, shook his head lightly and said, "Xiao Xu, don't be embarrassed for young people, he can see that the pot is good, it is already rare, which means that my pot has an eye for him." ”

"Humph! The most important thing for young people is to learn to be honest. ”

Xu Lao snorted coldly unconvinced, lit the purple clay pot in front of the three of them, and said: "I dare to assert that he will say that he will say good about any pot he sees, but he may not be able to make sense." ”

Liu Yuhao's face was a little unbearable at that time, and he was about to say it, but after thinking about it, he suddenly remembered Master Azan's advice of "no delusional heart", and suddenly sweated profusely on his spine.

"The mage really saw it clearly, and I will put more effort into cultivating qi in the future."

Thinking of this, Liu Yuhao's slightly flushed face slowly returned to its original ruddyness, calm and relaxed, and a touch of clear tranquility flowed in his eyes.

In fact, when Old Xu was speaking, Master Ge had been secretly observing Liu Yuhao's expression.

Generally speaking, young people are much more angry after all, and they will be angry when they encounter someone who scolds them in person, even if they don't say it, they can read one or two from the eyes that are the window of the soul.

But what made Master Ge secretly surprised was that he didn't expect Liu Yuhao to look young, but his Qi Cultivation Kung Fu was really home, and he was belittled by Xu Lao for nothing, but he was still calm and calm, and did not show a trace of anger.

Young people can do this, and this concentration alone is enough to make people admire!

"Okay, okay, you don't have to rely on the old and sell the old all the time."

Master Ge smiled and waved his hand, pressed back what Old Xu wanted to say, glanced back at Liu Yuhao, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu, since you have repeatedly doubted, it is better to let this young man explain your doubts, I am very optimistic about this young man." ”

Liu Yuhao smiled bitterly in his heart, he originally followed Old Man Kong to join in the fun, but he didn't expect that he would become the focus of everyone's attention as soon as he arrived.

Old Man Kong is really ruthless, he obviously saw that he was in an embarrassment, but he watched the play as if he was nothing, and he didn't even glance at Liu Yuhao. This made Liu Yuhao extremely depressed.

Fortunately, Liu Yuhao has learned a lot of ways to appreciate purple sand with the help of Old Man Qi, and he has the help of the Eight Brocade Ability Technique that ordinary people don't know, Liu Yuhao is not stage frightened.

"That kid will talk a little, and please forgive the seniors for the wrongdoing."

Liu Yuhao glanced at the people present, stood up with a smile, and bowed slightly to show his respect for the three old men's predecessors.

"If you want to talk about it, let's say it quickly, we are not the kind of people who like to pay attention to hypocrisy, so you can directly talk about what is good about Master Ge's Shih Tzu pot."

Xu Lao waved his hand impatiently and said.

As soon as the words fell, Old Man Kong frowned slightly, and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the hinting eyes handed over by Master Ge, so he had to smile helplessly, and squinted his eyes as if it was nothing.

"Old Xu, you're playing a trick on me!"

Liu Yuhao nodded with a smile on his face, but secretly slandered in his heart.

No wonder the remaining three here all call Xu Lao Xiao Xu, and now Liu Yuhao finally understands, the reason is that Xu Lao likes to play pranks, and his temperament is probably like that of a child.

The word Xiao Xu is a slight teasing of his disrespectful personality.

In fact, Master Ge's pot is by no means a Shih Tzu pot, but an authentic Wendan. If Liu Yuhao couldn't even see this, his tea over the years would have been in vain.

Wendan is a kind of fruit, and the appearance of Wendan pot naturally responds to the sentence, art comes from life, higher than life.

In the early Ming and Qing dynasties, it was time for Wendan to be created by people, and its pot shape was similar to Xi Shi and Guifei pots, but the latter two were created after the end of the Qing Dynasty, the latter was exquisite, and the former was ancient, which was also related to the aesthetic attention of Zisha art at that time.

Xu Lao deliberately reversed black and white to mislead himself, which really made Liu Yuhao feel slightly angry.

Think about it, if people who really don't understand pots listen to his words and go down, wouldn't they make a big joke?

"Ahem, cough, cough"

Liu Yuhao first coughed a few times to clear his throat, and then said loudly: "Master Ge's Wendan pot has a unique shape, the body of the pot is relatively simple, straightforward, close to the shape of the bowl, from a distance, the shape of the vessel is symmetrical and smooth, impeccable, and the craftsmanship is far beyond the ability of ordinary pot masters." ”

Old Man Kong's eyes finally opened when he heard this, and he smiled, as if he glanced at Old Xu unintentionally, but everyone could hear that the old man's low laughter was full of the taste of narrowness.

"This kid is a bit of a doorman."

Xu Lao also said with a red face, and the disdain in his eyes had disappeared, replaced by a strong curiosity and a vague sense of surprise.

Liu Yuhao didn't care what others thought of him at all, and continued with a smile: "This pot of jewels is missing at the top and bottom, the lid is uniform and fitting, the top and bottom of the pot are excessively elegant, and the short mouth is upturned, like a woman's coquettish pouting mouth, which is downside down, echoing the upward trend of the mouth. The full ampulla seems to make people see the natural beauty of a woman like a Shih Tzu pot, and it is like a green grapefruit, with endless flavors in the mouth. ”

Master Ge smiled faintly, although he didn't speak, the appreciation in his eyes became stronger.

Wen Dan, "Wen" originally refers to softness, appearance, and appearance; "Dan" refers to the role of women in opera, so the whole pot shape also does not lose the gentleness and elegance of women.

Although Master Ge's Wendan pot is not as delicate and exquisite as Xi Shi and Guifei, it has its own delicate beauty in its simplicity, and it also reflects the charm of Wendan.

Liu Yuhao continued: "The success rate of making vermilion pots is very low, and the average pot maker will not easily make vermilion pots. ”

After speaking, Liu Yuhao looked at Master Ge with a smile and waited for the answer.

It didn't need Master Ge to explain, the other three were all his old friends, and naturally they all knew the origin of the Wendan pot.

And Liu Yuhao himself has the skill of Bajin ability, and he doesn't need to be reminded, he already knew the origin of the pot when he urged the ability just now, and now he is just deliberately hiding it so that he doesn't look too sharp.

Master Ge smiled and replied, "Young man, since you know pots, then give the old man a palm and see how this pot plays." ”

The "play" mentioned in the play pot actually refers to the "play" of the purple clay pot kiln.

It is not a day's work to master the fire in the high-temperature cellar of more than 1,000 degrees, and the temperature is too high to easily deform into a crippled product, which is often called "kiln burning white light", which is caused by the quartz vitrification contained in the purple sand mud due to the high temperature.

Just the right heat can make the mud surface of the pot without shining small white silver stars, in the natural light can have several kinds of reflected color light, the more abundant the reflected color light, the better the mud quality, the reflected color light is dull and single can not be good mud.

Another phenomenon of good mud quality is that injecting boiling water into the pot can make the mud color of the pot darker, which is called color rendering.

The greater the color change, the better the mud quality, the greater the nourishment, only the pure and just right mud can raise the delicate feel of the baby's skin, the elegant and simple visual feeling of the light as the ancient mirror, and the rounded and deep ancient jade style of coloring.

"Master Ge, you've stumped me."

Liu Yuhao said with a smile.

Master Ge's eyebrows raised slightly, and he said strangely: "What do you say?" ”

Liu Yuhao smiled and said: "In my own understanding, you must learn to let go of the pot with the fate, have it with the fate, don't have to be too demanding, the real happiness is not whether you can have the pot, but whether you can understand the pot, this is a blessing, if you are obsessed with owning, the heart will eventually be trapped by it!" ”

The reason for this understanding is probably Liu Yuhao's epiphany after some exchanges with Master Azan.

If it was placed in the past, Liu Yuhao would definitely look at the pulp of the pot first, and then make comments on the nourishment of the pot, as well as the mud and the pot maker.

But now, in Liu Yuhao's heart, he found that the purpose of playing with pots is actually to cultivate one's self-cultivation, abandon troubles, and relax one's mood

If you can really live every day happily, that is the true meaning of playing with pots! If you blindly pursue the sky-high price of the pot, be greedy for selfish desires, and regard the pot as your own, you will only get more and more tired of playing!

"Compared with this young man, a few of us are left behind!"

Master Ge finally grinned happily, and then without waiting for everyone's puzzled eyes, he said with a smile: "Since you play, you have to pay attention to a mentality, as long as you like it, no matter how bad it is, no matter how bad it is, no matter how bad it is, just like it, and don't force it if you don't like it!" ”
