Chapter 765: The Thousand-Year Curse of the Poetry Tablet
"Li Dubai! It's you again! Collect it for me! β
This Qin Zhong burst into a shout, and he once again urged the pocket magic weapon in mid-air.
Bai Lidu was also stunned by the other party's shout, what do you mean, "It's actually you again?" Have you ever met each other before? It doesn't exist!
In such a stunned moment, Bai Lidu's game character has been sucked off the ground, and his body is constantly shrinking......
- Battle Tips: You have been attacked by the Zhenyuan Qiankun Bag, and you are about to be captured in the bag, please try to escape.
Bai Lidu immediately activated the Return to the City Charm, but was prompted that the activation was invalid.
What to do? If it is really put into the bag, it is estimated that all means will be ineffective, and I am afraid that it will be slaughtered by others at that time.
Seeing that he was about to be taken into that pocket, Bai Lidu finally found a way to escape.
After activating the special effect of "Night Visit to the Old Summer Palace" on the waist card, Bai Lidu disappeared on the edge of the pocket, and it is estimated that it will be loaded in a second or two at night.
As soon as the white light flashed, Bai Lidu appeared in a corner of the Old Summer Palace, where he was last when he left.
"Damn! It's dangerous! β
Bai Lidu estimated that if he waited until he teleported back, he would have to appear in the courtyard of the Champion Mansion again, in this case, if the chief manager had been guarding there, then he would definitely be more passive if he hastily teleported back.
No matter, let's go and submit the task of the stonemason first.
For today's Old Summer Palace, Bai Lidu is already quite familiar, and soon ran to the manufacturing office.
Entering the courtyard, he went straight to the front of the stonemason Dong Diaolong, showing the fast white marble feldspar, and submitted the task!
"Haha, good apprentice, I actually got such a good piece of white marble back for my master so quickly!" Dong Diaolong touched the long stone standing on the ground and said with a smile.
"Well, Master, can you teach me the grinding stone technique this time?"
"Haha, good! You have put away this book and this magic stone wheel......"
- Quest Hint: You have completed the court stonemason's life career quest [White Marble Feldspar], you have obtained 1000 palace stonemason career proficiency points, and obtained the rare life skill book [Grinding Stone Technique] and the high-grade grinding tool [Grinding Stone Sand Wheel] rewarded by the stonemason Dong Diaolong.
Oh? I actually gave myself another grinding tool:
[Grinding stone sand wheel] (blue, main hand): the best grinding tool, can be used to polish the cut feldspar or ashlar, so as to improve the roundness and quality of the stone, requirements: senior stonemason.
In fact, it was the first time that Bai Lidu had heard of such a magical thing as an ink fountain, and after putting it away, he immediately learned the grinding stone technique on the spot.
- System Prompt: You have learned [Grinding Stone], mastered the life skills and techniques of grinding stone, for any cut feldspar or ashlar, you can assemble a grinding stone sand wheel for subsequent grinding stones, so as to improve the roundness and quality of the stone.
Next, the stonemason Dong Diaolong issued Bai Lidu a professional task of magic stones, and the objects processed were all the feldspar and ashlar that he had cut before.
Bai Lidu had nowhere else to go at present, so he patiently polished all these stones, and after all the stones were polished, the professional proficiency of the high-level court stonemasons had reached the top state.
"Haha! Very good! β
Stonemason Dong Diaolong was also very satisfied after inspecting Bai Lidu's pure hand polishing, although Bai Lidu received a reward for professional proficiency, but he also failed to break through.
"Master, if I want to be promoted to an expert-level court stonemason, do I still need any qualifications?" Bai Lidu also asked directly.
"Hehe, if you want to become an expert court stonemason, you must first learn stone carving, and to learn stone carving, it is not enough for you to have both hands and strength, you must also have a high level of attainment in calligraphy and painting......"
When Bai Lidu heard this, he also understood, so he replied: "Master, I am a high-level calligrapher and painter, and there should be no problem with this. β
"Well, the level of a high-level calligrapher and painter should be enough, but even if you learn the art of carving, if you don't have a stone carving authenticity, rubbing, and stele stickers that can match the expert-level court stonemasons for imitation engraving practice, it will be difficult to grow into an expert-level court stonemason."
Authentic stone carvings, rubbings and tablets!
Bai Lidu suddenly remembered that in his package, there was actually a tablet of the poem tablet of "Fengqiao Night Park" that he copied in Hanshan Temple last time!
["Fengqiao Night Park" tablet] (yellow characters): Rare tablet, from Hanshan Temple "Fengqiao Night" poem tablet, the original text of which was written by the Qing Dynasty scholar Yu Yue in the 32nd year of Guangxu, the content of the tablet is: The moon falls and the sky is full of frost, and Jiang Feng fishes and fires to sleep. Hanshan Temple outside the city of Gusu, the passenger ship heard in the middle of the night. (Obtained by player [Li Dubai]'s copying)
At this time, I heard Dong Diaolong say: "Good apprentice, as long as you can find or copy or rub down the stone carving masterpieces of a calligraphy master, then I can guide you to learn "Stone Carving" free of charge, so that after your continuous practice, promotion to expert-level court stonemason is just around the corner." β
ββTask Tips: The stonemason Dong Diaolong has launched a promotion task for you in the life and occupation [Find the Stone Carving Boutique], please find or copy the stone carving masterpiece of a calligraphy master, and hand it over to the stonemason Dong Diaolong, the task reward: Get the guidance and learning opportunity of "Stone Carving".
Seeing that this task was directly displayed in order to complete the state, Bai Lidu also laughed, and immediately took out the tablet of "Fengqiao Night Park" that he copied and submitted the task!
With the prompt of the completion of the task, Bai Lidu saw Dong Diaolong take the tablet of "Fengqiao Night Park" into his hand and carefully examine it.
Bai Lidu guessed that what Dong Diaolong saw should also be the 28 words he copied, if he could also see the relevant descriptions that the player saw, it is estimated that there will also be confusion, after all, this Yu Yue wrote this poem when it was already 32 years of Guangxu, and the current Old Summer Palace is in 1861 in the 11th year of Xianfeng, and the difference between the two is at least 50 years on the timeline, so the content on this poem tablet should not have been written yet.
And the most critical point is that in the current timeline, Cixi has been hung up early, and it is still unknown whether there will be Emperor Guangxu in the future.
"Good apprentice, where did you get this tablet from? Who is the author? β
"Oh...... A while ago, I went to Hanshan Temple, copied from the poem tablet there, who the author is, I don't know the apprentice, I must be a calligrapher. β
"Well, that's right, it seems that it is indeed a calligraphy master, then I will teach you the stone carving technique first, and when you learn the stone carving technique, you can follow this stele to imitate the carving practice."
"Good! Thank you, Master......"
"You see, this carved stone can actually be divided into two directions: engraving and carving, and engraving can be divided into ...... engraving and stone carving."
This Dong Diaolong spoke seriously, and Bai Lidu had to listen carefully.
After a few minutes, he finally understood the essentials of stone carving.
[Stone Carving] (Court Stonemason Expert Skill): Consume 40-60 points of physical strength and 50 points of mana, use advanced stone carving tools, you can carve and carve on stone targets such as polished stones or stone walls and stone cliffs, if there is no imitation carving reference, you need to copy and paint on the carved stone target in advance, if there is an imitation carving reference, you can directly carve the stone, need: advanced carving knife, advanced carving hammer.
"That's it! Apprentice! Now that you've learned how to carve stone, the next step is the actual imitation carving practice, these two tools you need to use, you can choose any piece of feldspar you have grinded before, and get to work! β
Bai Lidu took a high-grade stone carving knife and a high-grade stone carving hammer handed by the other party, and faced several feldspars piled on the ground, he also hesitated, not that he didn't know which feldspar to choose, but that he suddenly remembered the thousand-year-old curse about the poem tablet of "Fengqiao Night Park......
