"You carved this?" Xing Lao took the things in Tang Dashao's hand and looked at them carefully, and couldn't help but be surprised.

It wasn't big, but it was a little bigger than a finger, and it was a carving of an animal, and it looked like a fluffy mass.

Carving, the smaller the thing, the more difficult it is to carve, but there are some special carving small objects, called miniature carving, the most awesome micro-carving can even paint on a grain of rice......

"Well, this is what I carved, and the prototype is a puppy that I have at home." Tang Dashao arrived, this thing was carved by him according to the appearance of the hairball......

"Well, it's not bad, look at this knife technique, it does look like it is recorded in "Zigang Nine Carvings", boy, you really taught yourself? How long has it been? Xing Lao couldn't help but ask.

"Well, it's self-taught, and it hasn't been long, it's only been a little over a week." Tang Dashao nodded, but he still didn't say a word in his heart, he thought through time and space, returned to hundreds of years ago, and could see how Lu Zigang carved......

"Genius, genius, Donald is not very reliable on weekdays, he always comes here to rub this, rub that, I didn't expect to send me a genius today." Old Xing muttered.

It took more than a week to study on my own, and to be able to reach this point is absolutely genius......

Shi Yan took the jade carving small hairball from Xing Lao's hand, put it in his hand and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but say ashamedly: "Little junior brother is really a genius, your senior brother and I are far behind, more than a week of self-study can reach this point, I have been learning how to carve since I was seven years old, it has been more than 20 years, it seems that little junior brother, you can surpass me in less than a year." ”

"Where is this, I just don't understand, I'm just figuring it out." Tang Dashao wiped a cold sweat and said.

You must know that Shi Yan is also a genius in carving, and he was promoted to a master when he was only in his thirties, but such a genius said in front of him that he could surpass him in less than a year......

Are you pretending to be a little too much? Hit the senior brother's self-confidence?

"Blind pondering, hehe, blind pondering can be pondered to this point, not simple, not simple." Xing Lao said with a smile.

At this moment, Tang Dashao didn't know what to say, and when he answered, he seemed a little arrogant, and if he didn't answer, it didn't seem appropriate, so he could only scratch his head with his hand and laugh a few times......

"Shi Yan, you take your little junior brother here, take a good look, explain some basic knowledge to him, as well as some mechanical usage here, I see this thing he carved, he uses a technique, you teach him some basic things." Xing Lao said.

"Yes, Master. Little junior brother, you come with me, this is my master's workshop, there is a lot of equipment in it, which is used to process jade, I have to say, now the technology is really good, those ...... before"

At that moment, Shi Yan took Tang Dashao around the workshop, which opened Tang Dashao's eyes, before Tang Dashao thought that the carving was just to find a knife, and then find a piece of jade, and carve the shape he wanted, but after Shi Yan's introduction, he realized that the carving was far from being as simple as he thought......

Even if the consciousness travels through time and space, goes back to hundreds of years ago, and sees how Lu Zigang carved, it does not mean that Tang Dashao has moved the true meaning and steps of carving......

In particular, after hundreds of years of continuous development of carving skills and the emergence of modern technology, many professional machines have greatly facilitated the work of carvers, such as cutting, material selection and so on.

Tang Dashao stayed here for nearly a day, eating lunch and dinner here, like a sponge, constantly absorbing the surrounding water......

After a day's time, Tang Dashao finally knew a lot of basic knowledge of carving, which could not be brought to him by "Zigang Nine Carvings", nor could he learn it by crossing his thinking hundreds of years ago, and it must be taught by someone......

And some things have just appeared in modern times, that is, Lu Zigang has been resurrected, and I am afraid that he is also a numb claw in the face of these machines, not to mention Tang Dashao......

Looking up at the window, the sky was already dark, and Tang Dashao said to Shi Yan: "Thank you for teaching." ”

"Hehe, what's polite, we are all senior brothers, when I first started, the senior brother and the second senior brother were still there at that time, and they taught me." Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Where are the senior brother and the second senior brother now?" Tang Dashao asked.

"After leaving the master, we are not the mantle disciples of the master now, so when our skills reach a certain level and are recognized by the master, it means that we can become a teacher and stand up for ourselves from now on, but one is to be a teacher for life, and they will still come back to see the master when they are free." Shi Yan sighed.

"I've heard the mantle several times, what's the difference between this mantle disciple and us?" Tang Dashao asked.

"The mantle disciple is equivalent to the master's son, after the master is a hundred years later, some of the things he left behind will be inherited by the mantle disciple, just like the young master in martial arts novels, he will inherit the position of the head in the future, so there can only be one mantle disciple." After Shi Yan finished speaking, he glanced at Tang Dashao......

Tang Da Shao nodded when he heard this, and when he saw Shi Yan's eyes looking at him, he naturally understood, if he didn't show up, under the condition that the senior brother and the second senior brother were both self-reliant, this mantle disciple must be the third senior brother in the end.

And now that he has appeared, and the one who is so stealing the limelight, I'm afraid that the third senior brother is a little defensive of himself now......

"Hehe, so that's the case, fortunately, I'm not here, learning carving is also an interest. Today I saw that you and Master are competing for the right to carve the glass imperial green jadeite I brought, today Senior Brother has helped me so much, taught me so many things, I can't be ignorant as a junior brother, and tomorrow will bring surprises to Senior Brother. Tang Dashao said with a smile.

In the previous paragraph, Tang Dashao said obviously, he is not here, so Third Senior Brother, don't worry about me competing with you for the position of a mantle disciple, and then in the name of teaching knowledge, I will surprise him tomorrow, presumably the Third Senior Brother should also know what he means......

Sure enough, after listening to Tang Dashao's words, Shi Yan was overjoyed with a trace of stuffiness in his chest, especially when he heard the surprise later......

Although he was a little worried about his precarious position, he was essentially an engraver, a master carver with an infinite pursuit of the finest materials......

"Thank you so much, junior brother."

Tang Dashao talked about the glass imperial green jade in the front, and then said surprise, he could naturally vaguely guess what Tang Dashao said about the surprise, the glass imperial green is too difficult to find, presumably tomorrow can bring the glass kind of high green, or light green......

"The third senior brother is too polite, it's not early now, I'll say hello to the master, and then go back." Tang Da Shaodao.

"Okay, okay, go ahead, I still have some work to do." Shi Yan nodded.

"See you tomorrow." Tang Dashao waved his hand at Shi Yan.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."

Tang Dashao walked downstairs, at this time, the two guys were no longer there, only Xing Lao was sitting on the counter alone, concentrating and not knowing what he was writing.

"Master, I'm going back." Tang Dashao said softly.

"Well, wait a minute, I will finish transcribing this "Zigang Nine Moments" immediately, originally you should take it back, today Lao Tang said that you have the ambition to build a museum, this thing is written by Lu Zigang's predecessors, and it can be regarded as an antique, and it will be placed in the museum for future generations to admire." Xing Lao said.

"Master, you haven't finished reading it and put it here, and you can talk about the transcription work, and I will help you." Tang Da Shaodao.

Although Xing Lao is a few years younger than Tang Lao, he is also in his seventies, and he is his own master, so he can just let himself do this kind of trivial work, why do it himself?

"Hehe, being able to see the legacy of Lu Zigang's predecessors is already a benefit you have brought to me, and this thing, you can't fake hands with others, I copied this "Zigang Nine Carvings", and I also have a new understanding of carving, this thing needs to be studied carefully, not something that can be learned by reading it once." Xing Lao said with a smile.

"Yes, Master." Tang Dashao nodded.

Speaking of which, this "Zigang Nine Moments" he is really useful, he also tried it when he carved before, and the weekday carving thinking can not travel through time and space at all, and when he arrived hundreds of years ago to see Lu Zigang carving, only this "Zigang Nine Moments" has this effect when he is by his side, so it looks at it, this book is actually not simple, but it is the medium of Tang Dashao's thinking through time and space.

"Well, okay, I'm done transcribing, it's for you, you have to keep it safe. There's one more thing I'd like to ask for your opinion on. Xing Lao said.

"Master, please speak." Tang Da Shaodao.

"This "Zigang Nine Carvings" must be a priceless treasure in the carving world hundreds of years ago, but the way of carving is different from calligraphy, painting skills, it is constantly developing, hundreds of years, a lot of new skills have appeared, Lu Zigang's predecessors no matter how powerful a person, it is impossible to be much more advanced than the things summarized by many carvers for hundreds of years."

"This "Zigang Nine Carvings" has a lot of merits, and it also inspires me a lot, but it is not a martial arts cheats, and the carving skills are also divided into genres, so the content in it is not as precious as imagined, so I want to make it public, so that all carvers can learn, and touch the side, so as to improve themselves, what do you think?" Elder Xing asked.

"Hehe, there are already two people who have discussed this issue with me, I told the master when I was in Jingshi, and I told Tang Lao before Haishi."

"Master, the content of this "Zigang Nine Moments" is naturally announced, I will keep the original, if someone can achieve the grandmaster with "Zigang Nine Moments", it can be regarded as the essence of my Chinese heritage." Tang Dashao said with a smile.

"Grandmaster, you kid, how can it be so simple." Xing Lao said with a smile.

"It's not easy, Master, I'll go first." Tang Dashao nodded.

"Well, go ahead."

Tang Dashao, who walked out of the door, directly took out his mobile phone and dialed a call, and the word 'Tingting' was written on the phone book......
