Island City,

Antique Street.

The sun fishes down like a golden waterfall, tying the hope of the hawkers.

Every day, there will be dozens or hundreds of vendors here to set up stalls to sell some "antiques", "literary and artistic products", "flowers, birds, fish and insects". Behind the antique street is a row of shops.

Antique shops, this street, can be described as heaven and earth.

In the antique shop, the pot-bellied boss and shopkeeper always shout to the vendor in front of the door when lying on the Taishi chair, stay away, don't block my door; And the hawkers are always called inferiorly, and they know that they are saying, boss, I will move it, and then find a way to rub it for two more minutes;

People are not the same.

Some people are born with a golden key, and some people are born with a butt of debts, a good interpretation in a word, people are divided into three, six, nine, etc., and the meat has five flowers and three layers.

Unfortunately, in this world of flowers, Wang Tian is not the one lying on the chair of the master in the antique shop, he is also one of these many hawkers, compared to them, Wang Tian is still a student, a poor student in his senior year. Studied at Coastal College, a second-rate school not far from Antique Street.

Speaking of studying for Lu and setting up a stall, it's not because of one word, money.

Because his parents divorced very early, Wang Tian has lived with his grandparents since he was a child, and his grandparents run a bonsai business and rarely take care of themselves, so Wang Tian began to live a self-reliant life at a very young age.

Three years ago, his grandparents both died of illness, and his aunt and uncle robbed most of his grandparents' property and family business, so Wang Tian had to rely on his carving skills to make money.

Yes, Wang Tian has no other skills, that is, some grass and wood plots, he learned first-hand carving from his grandfather, and his craftsmanship is not exquisite, but he can barely get it. Set up a stall to sell some small carvings, and life is okay.

In these years, there is a skill, and it is really a truth to go to starve to death, especially in the past two years, the recovery of hand-carving, stained with the word "pure handmade", the price will increase several times, so that Wang Tian such a small carver has tasted the benefits.

As for the gadgets he is currently carving, when they are good, they can sell for thousands of yuan a week.

But this is only limited to good times, more often, Wang Tian does not have much income, until now, Wang Tian still owes the school more than 10,000 yuan and has not paid it back, this is the status quo.

There is less than a week before the school starts, and Wang Tian has not yet collected all the tuition fees, so at this time Wang Tian had to take out a piece of wood left by his grandfather before his death, thinking of taking it to make a classic carving to sell it, and pay back the school tuition first.

It's a piece of black-brown wood. The whole is trapezoidal shape, there are fifteen cubic centimeters in size, the wood is heavy, there is a faint fragrance, its texture is slender, and it seems that some cow hair patterns can be seen vaguely.

However, Wang Tian knew that the current piece of wood was not red sandalwood, the color of red sandalwood should be said to be more purple and black, and its aroma was honest, less than the fragrance of this piece of wood, and it was lighter, and after many years of sinking, the aroma could hardly be smelled.

Looking at this piece comprehensively, it should be African sandalwood that is closer to red sandalwood, don't look at it with a sandalwood word, the price of African sandalwood is much worse than the former. However, Wang Tian also knows in his heart that even if this is not the real red sandalwood, the price of this sandalwood is also popular in the furniture market at the moment, and if it is just such a piece, I am afraid it will be close to 10,000 yuan.

Of course, if you go to sell this piece of wood, it may not be easy to sell, after all, the good sandalwood is used to make mahogany furniture, the cube is larger, this volume should be grandpa from which mahogany furniture store to buy, just want to make a carving.

Admittedly, if this piece of sandalwood can be carved into a good work of art, then its price may triple or quadruple.

Thinking of this, Wang Tian quickly found a piece of wet cotton cloth, he gently wiped the sandalwood a few times, and when he looked at it again, he could already clearly see the texture of the wood, which was really like cow hair, which was the legendary cow hair pattern, which was delicate and beautiful.

Because this sandalwood is a trapezoidal shape, the requirements for the shape of the artwork are much higher. After thinking hard for a long time, Wang Tian thought of an image, a horse stepping on Feiyan.

"Horse stepping on Feiyan" is also known as "Ma Chao Dragon Sparrow", "Copper Galloping Horse", it is a bronze ware of the Eastern Han Dynasty, its shape is beautiful, and the image is more vivid and interesting.

It is a horse with a flower tassel on the top of the head, the head is raised and the tail is raised, the tail is tied with a floating knot, the three-legged is in the air, the right hind foot hoof steps on a flying swallow, the flying swallow spreads its wings, and looks back in astonishment, Wang Tian decided to borrow the artistic shape of the horse stepping on the flying swallow to complete this sandalwood work.

Holding the sandalwood upright, Wang Tian took out his own alloy carving knife that specially carved hardwood, slowly added force to the carving knife, and carried the knife down, Wang Tian wanted to wipe off the excess wood, but it was a small knife, Wang Tian still underestimated the hardness of the sandalwood, especially seeing that the sharp carving knife flashed, and after staggering the wood, it slid through Wang Tian's fingers.

Fortunately, the carving knife was only drawn on the finger, and the wound was not deep,

Wang Tian was just about to take a band-aid to wrap his finger, but in the next second, the two drops of blood dripping from his finger reached the sandalwood and instantly fused with it, and this piece of sandalwood magically changed color at this time.

The original black-brown sandalwood was first a piece of red at this time, and when the blood slowly deepened, the surface of the sandalwood was a piece of gold, and then, a hazy mist emanated from the sandalwood's body, and the air flow carried a fragrant fragrance, which made people excited, and couldn't stop approaching.

Wang Tian had never encountered such a situation, and Wang Tian was a little unconvinced of what he saw.

But the current phenomenon is only seen by Wang Tian, because the people who come and go on the antique street do not pay attention to themselves, even if someone's eyes are towards themselves, their expressions frozen in the air have not changed in the slightest, which shows that this magical phenomenon is really only seen by himself.

What the hell is going on?

Wang Tian has experienced more or less things since he was a child, but this one especially makes him feel wrong, this piece of sandalwood grandfather did not mention to himself when he was alive, only said that life is not easy when it can be used for carving, is it not that there is any magical ability in this sandalwood?

Wang Tian was very bold, and his hands were not afraid to touch, and Wang Tian also wanted to know what was going on with Lu Dao. --------------------------------------------------- the opening of the new book, it only costs two cents for the first like, thank you!
