Chapter 8 Eight Methods of Carving

With excitement, enter the house, plug in the door, enter the secret realm, and do it in one go.

The drawers were pulled out one by one, 8 drawers touched the same, the size was the same, put the flat cabinet, the opening was upward, and the bottom row of boxes was observed, at first glance, there was no abnormality, compared to the upper rows of boxes, I felt the same, the mind was concentrated in the eyes, and I felt that I saw more clearly, and checked the box inch by inch, and found another slight dent on the innermost side of the side wall of a box, which was slightly larger than an adult's fingers, and looked at another box, and saw the agreed dent on the symmetrical side wall, and did not pay attention to it. Generally, it is thought that it is a processing error.

Press lightly with your fingers, with a click, the innermost back panel of the box falls off directly, because the hand window is up, the back panel is just loose, you can't see what's inside, stand up the cabinet, and obviously hear the sound of objects falling. From the back of the cabinet, there is nothing abnormal, turn to the front, tilt the cabinet slightly to make it easier to see what's inside, at this time the back panel is completely dropped, and at the same time see the objects inside, similar to books.

Take it out and take a look, the outside is a layer of oil paper wrapping, gently open the oil paper, and find that inside is an ancient book similar to 32 open, the cover is written "Eight Methods of Carving", the book records, the line is passed on in the Ming Dynasty "camp Qing Officials Division" Luban a line, responsible for the construction and repair of the palace office, specializing in carving. I don't know what age the engraved copy is, and it is estimated that it will not be very long, otherwise it would not have been preserved until now.

There are 8 kinds of carving techniques, namely: line carving, thin carving, round carving, relief carving, inner carving, intaglio carving, beautiful color carving, and hollow carving. Some of the contents of the "Book of Luban" are recorded in the back, with pictures and texts, some of the content is obscure, and there are even some spells that are not incomprehensible to professionals, so I didn't pay too much attention to them.

Li Guocheng is a little interested in the eight methods of carving, the writing is concise, easy to understand, I finished reading it in half an hour, and I didn't pay attention to some taboos of various shapes, because Li Guocheng just wanted to use carving to pass the time, didn't think about building a house, and only needed to understand some skills of carving and the requirements for carving knives.

Use the same method to open another dark grid, found that it is some silver tickets, the same face value, the head is "Qing Dynasty treasure banknote", "quasi-two two flat foot color silver one hundred two", there are two riding chapters, one hundred two on the top of a seal, are a little blurry and not clear. I was a little excited when I just got it, and now I'm a little excited, the silver ticket of the Qing Dynasty, it's useless now, take it out, maybe it will be reported, it's waste paper, put it in a drawer with the eight methods of carving, install all the drawers, and put the cabinet against the wall.

The secret realm is suitable for dry and wet, and there is no fear of rotting books.

Looking at the empty secret realm, I wondered if I could make some wooden shelves for placing items.

I thought I had some treasures, what gold bars, and the ocean, but I didn't expect it to be a few pieces of useless paper.

After thinking about the content of the exercises, after half a year of cultivation, I have become accustomed to the changes in my body, and the exercises can be used freely, and I can start refining the skin, but refining the skin requires aura, so I can only rely on the chalcedony liquid, and I don't use it easily.

In the current society, the internal breath and the five fowl drama are also enough, so let's not refine the skin for the time being, and see if we can find a replacement before cultivating. Even if heaven and man are united, you can defend against bullets, cannonballs, missiles, not to mention mushrooms, the current society of science and technology, or don't think about anything wrong.

Put a few pieces of wood together, put it directly next to the tool cabinet, this is a good thing, although I don't understand wood, according to the experience of later generations, dense wood is generally good wood, and so have the opportunity to learn some wood identification knowledge, plus their own senses, at least you can find some good wood for carving.

Out of the secret realm, I looked at my house, I have kept the dilapidated of the past, and the New Year is coming soon, do you want to clean it up simply, at least I live comfortably. If there is too much difference with other neighbors, maybe you will be reported, now everyone can't eat, and you can't eat well, where do you get the money to decorate, even if there is no problem with the way the money comes from, you dare to make a special, then you will be criticized and educated by the neighbors in the compound.

Keeping a low profile is king.

Whether it is in the past life or in this life, simply tidying up the house is basically done by yourself, especially with this house layout, buy a few bookcases, and stand in the middle of the house, with a bedroom inside, a living room outside, and a dining room at the same time. The entrance and exit of the partition are staggered with the door, and the privacy comes out. The wall has not fallen off, but it has not been taken care of for a long time, and it has become mottled and gray, so you can use a large white brush. Since there is no ceiling, it is pasted with newspapers, and then a layer of white is put on it, and it is alive.

If you think of it, do it, and ask Uncle Yi first.

"Is Uncle Yi here?" came to the west wing of the middle courtyard and knocked on the door of the uncle's room.

"Who", a middle-aged woman's voice came from the room, and opened the door, and it was a dignified middle-aged woman, less than 50 years old, full of kindness.

"It's Guocheng, looking for your uncle, old man, Guocheng is looking for you in the backyard." An aunt shouted into the house, and stretched out her hand to signal Li Guocheng to enter the house.

"Guocheng, come and sit", an uncle, with a stocky body and short hair, almost half of his hair is white, especially his sideburns, which are basically all white, his eyes are shining, and his face is full of righteousness.

"That's the case, don't you want to celebrate the New Year, it's like cleaning up the house and brushing a big white, I want to ask you, who has a brush in our yard, and where does the big white sell", Li Guocheng sat at the table, took the water cup sent by an aunt, put it on the table and said.

"I have it at home, and the Dabai Department Store has to sell it, and it just so happens that you can also help the master bring a little, this is five cents and industrial coupons", Li Guocheng was not hypocritical, took the money and industrial coupons, stood up and was about to leave.

"Dead old man, Guocheng finally came home, and you won't let you sit for more."

"Thanks, auntie, buy things back while the store is not closed." Li Guocheng went out with a smile.

Big white, generally made into a ball, the largest is not the size of a table tennis ball, white minerals, the specific composition is unknown, but in the past it was widely used, brushing the wall, the sneakers turned yellow after washing to smear whitening, and sometimes used to smear the white quilt surface.

I went to the department store and bought 5 cents each, but I was disgusted by the salesperson for a long time. I hurriedly explained that it was for the neighbor to stop chattering.

By the way, I bought a pound of white rabbit toffee, went out of the department store, and when I got to a place with few people, I put the white rabbit into the secret realm. I went to the scrap yard across the street from the courtyard, bought some newspapers, and sent them to the secret place where no one was.

With only Dabai in his hand, he returned to the courtyard. When I entered the door, I met the three masters, and I was still fiddling with those pots of flowers in front of the door.

"Xiao Li, where is this", the third master heard the voice and looked up.

"Bought some big white and painted the wall". Li Guocheng responded.

"It's a diligent person, the rest of the big white will be sent to the three masters, and the three masters will simply clean up some of the houses before the year", the three masters looked forward to the authenticity.

"Okay, the rest will be sent to you", human exchanges, a little white, it doesn't matter if you give it away.

"Thank you, don't say it, that day, the three masters taught you to fish." The three masters thought about making amends.

"Okay, I'll ask for advice then, see you later, three masters."

Entered the middle courtyard, took one of them to the uncle, and returned to the house with the brush prepared by the uncle.

After a brief plan, first stain the roof with newspaper, and then paint it white. Find a master next summer and hang the top. It is to make a wooden structure, then paste a layer of newspaper, and then paint it with white, and the traditional ceiling is completed.
