Chapter 148: Engaging in Art

"Tan Yue can carve?" Master Du Shun asked.

"Why, I originally just gave you a rotten stone without a little aura, but now, what I want to give you is a carved Buddha statue, which one do you think is better?" Li Chengqian asked.

That's true, but if Li Chengqian's carving skills are not good, isn't it over?

A good piece of marble is wasted like this, and Master Du Shun's heart will drip blood.

"Let's go and choose a stone first." Master Du Shun said.

He decided to choose the stone first and then talk about anything else.

"Find me a monk's robe." Li Chengqian said.

"Why?" Master Du Shun asked.

"I snuck out." Li Chengqian said.

Master Du Shun sighed, of course he didn't know that Li Er had already asked Li Chengqian to handle government affairs.

However, it is indeed not good for Li Chengqian to sneak out, after all, Li Yuan has just died.

There was no way, he had to find a monk's robe for Li Chengqian to wear.

This monk's robe is very exquisite, and even has a wide hat, which is convenient for Li Chengqian to wrap himself.

Not long after, Li Chengqian took Master Du Shun to Lu Zihou's house.

When Lu Zihou saw Li Chengqian, he almost fell to the ground.

He is not like a monk who does not ask about the world, he has many acquaintances in the court.

Li Er was too sad because of his father's death, and he didn't ask about state affairs, and let Li Chengqian handle government affairs on his behalf, and he knew.

Then, Li Chengqian ran out with such a big grin, and came to him.

Don't hurt him! He's still young and doesn't want to die!

"Let me introduce you, this is Master Du Shun of Huayan Temple." Li Chengqian said.

Lu Zihou was speechless, of course he knew Master Du Shun.

He said anxiously: "Your Highness, why did you sneak out?" Did the saint agree? ”

Li Chengqian rolled his eyes: "You can see that I ran out secretly, and you asked me if the saint agreed, are you stupid?" ”

Lu Zihou: "??? ”

"Negative sentiment from Lu Zihou, +125"

Is Li Chengqian still talking about human words? He's worried about Li Chengqian! and their own lives.

"Your Highness, let's go back early, the country can't be left without an owner for a day." Lu Zihou said.

Master Du Shun looked at Li Chengqian in surprise.

Li Chengqian said: "What are you panicking about, my father is fine, just take this opportunity to give himself a vacation, since I can sneak out, I can sneak back." ”

Lu Zihou was helpless, so he had to say: "In this case, Your Highness should quickly say what to do, and after you finish it, go back quickly." ”

"It's nothing, it's just to help Master Du Shun carve a Buddha statue, and I'll go back after carving." Li Chengqian said.

Lu Zihou looked at Master Du Shun, and the meaning in his eyes was obvious.

Li Chengqian is messing around, how can you, the host of a big temple, follow Li Chengqian to mess around?

Master Du Shun glanced at Lu Zihou helplessly, and he said that he couldn't help it!

After a short time, the three of them came to the warehouse.

Lu Zihou divided his subordinates and couldn't let them see Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian said: "Here is all the marble, you pick one, I will start carving on the spot." ”

Master Du Shun sighed and began to choose.

In fact, he had taken a fancy to a few pieces before, and now he just found them.

Li Chengqian said to Lu Zihou: "If you have any knives at home, bring them to me, and I'll find a convenient one." ”

The corners of Lu Zihou's eyes twitched, God specially brought them all, find a convenient one! Don't you use a special carving knife for engraving?

"Why don't I buy a set of carving knives?" Lu Zihou said.

Li Chengqian wanted to play, so he naturally wanted to let Li Chengqian have a good time.

"Okay, you go buy it quickly, I'm in a hurry, I can't wait." Li Chengqian said.

Lu Zihou hurriedly went to buy it, fortunately he was an elder of the Chamber of Commerce, and it was very simple to buy a carving knife.

Master Du Shun dragged out three marbles, each of which had a mysterious artistic conception on it, and Li Chengqian couldn't help clapping his hands when he saw it.

"Okay, these three marble stones are very good, I'll give you one, and I'll take the rest." Li Chengqian said.

"No, no, if Tan Yue carves one piece, the remaining two, I will take one piece." Master Du Shun said.

Li Chengqian laughed dryly: "Hehe, you wait and see, I want you to know what it means to be magical!" ”

Lu Zihou came back with two sets of carving tools.

Li Chengqian picked a piece of marble and began to ponder.

The two whispered to each other.

"I wish he had just sat like this, and felt like he couldn't." Lu Zihou said.

Master Du Shun was a little suspicious: "It seems to be a little interesting, maybe he can make a good statue." ”

Lu Zihou silently stayed away from Master Du Shun, he felt that this old monk was also crazy.

"I see!" Li Chengqian shouted.

The two were attracted by Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian said: "An excellent artist must think of what carving is like in his heart, and then start carving!" ”

The two looked at each other, as if that was indeed the case.

Li Chengqian hugged the marble and shouted, "I want to hug this marble!" ”

Master Du Shun: "??? ”

Lu Zihou: "??? ”

"I want to smell this marble!"

Li Chengqian put his nose on the marble and sniffed it carefully.

Master Du Shun, Lu Zihou: "......"

"I'm going to lick this marble!" Li Chengqian said.

After he finished speaking, he really licked the marble.

"It's a little cold, it smells earthy." Li Chengqian smacked his lips and said.

"Negative sentiment from Lu Zihou, +125"

"Negative Sentiment from Master Du Shun, +124"

The two of them took it, and they were sick!

"I'm going to wash this marble!"

Li Chengqian took out Rejoicing, brought clean water, and began to bathe Yunshi.

"I'm going to chat with it, hello wow, Miss Yunshi, I like you, you're so beautiful!" Li Chengqian said.

The two of them now know that Li Chengqian is here to play, isn't this carving at all!

Li Chengqian shouted: "I think about it! I want to carve a living Buddha of Jigong! ”

Master Du Shun was stunned when he heard this, what kind of Buddha is Jigong Living Buddha? He hadn't heard of it!

Li Chengqian picked up the carving knife and used all his strength to carve the marble in front of him.

The two didn't think it was too powerful at first, but gradually, they looked stupid.

The small carving knife sharpened iron like clay in Li Chengqian's hands.

The marble is hard, but it looks like tofu.

A vivid living Buddha Jigong appeared in front of the three of them, lying on his side, holding a broken fan, squinting his eyes and laughing, as if mocking the foolish people in the world.

It's so expressive, it's so vivid! It's like being alive!

Master Du Shun muttered, "Which Buddha is the Living Buddha of Jigong, and why have I never heard of it?" ”

"Jigong Living Buddha is the reincarnation of the Dragon Arhat and a monk who practices in the world." Li Chengqian said.

Someone else asked him to carve a Buddha statue, but is it okay for him to carve an Arhat?

Lu Zihou said: "Then this is an Arhat statue?" ”

Li Chengqian was stunned, yes, this is an Arhat statue, not a Buddha statue!

He was very dissatisfied, picked up the hammer, and was about to smash it.

Master Du Shun hurriedly shouted: "Be merciful!" ”

Li Chengqian stopped: "This Buddha statue has failed, you better take a piece of marble back." ”

Master Du Shun hurriedly said: "No, this Buddha statue is just like a living one, I want it, and after bringing it back, I want everyone in Chang'an to watch it!" ”

Li Chengqian was stunned, is this okay? It seems that he is indeed a great artist!
