Bamboo silk is more time-consuming than slices.

From after lunch to the next night, Li Yi made bamboo silk in the eight-sided tablet space for a whole day and a night.

It took 480 hours for Li Yi to split out all the bamboo filaments of the golden bamboo.

After splitting all the bamboo threads, Li Yi couldn't stand it even if his body was strengthened.

It took eight hours of sleeping directly on the rainproof cloth and his clothes before he regained his energy.

After being woken up by Zhang Haozhe, who came to deliver the meal, Li Yi swept away the breakfast he brought, and then returned to the eight-sided tablet space full of energy.

Originally, he planned to split the bamboo silk as much as possible in the past three days, and then put the bamboo silk into the space and bring it back to weave slowly.

But after extreme fatigue, after a deep rest, Li Yi felt that his physical strength had recovered.

After eating and ingesting energy, the sleepy spirit seems to have gradually cleared up and recovered to its best state.

Li Yi felt that he was full of energy and in excellent condition at the moment.

So, he planned to take on the challenge of weaving a single idol in one day.

In the space of the eight-sided stele, the bundled bamboo silk has been piled up like a mountain, stacked into a mountain of bamboo silk.

In front of Zhusi Mountain, Li Yi sat cross-legged in front of him, his eyes fell on them, but his mind was churning.

Flickering figures are emerging, but Li Yi is undecided.

Li Yi has already done the structure of the whole work, and he has also made a draft of the layout of all the gods in his mind.

But as the so-called ten thousand threads are difficult at the beginning, where to start, and which god and Buddha to start with, Li Yi made a difficulty.

According to Li Yi's design, he planned to start with Monkey King.

The protagonist of the story from which this work is based is Monkey King.

And in the scene where this work takes place, Monkey King is also the only protagonist, the core C.

So starting with him, and then spreading out the whole scene around him, is the most straightforward and clear.

But when he was about to start, he found that he couldn't determine the image of Monkey King in his mind.

In his mind, the image was vague.

Although he could piece together an image of Monkey King from all over the world, it was just a dead thing, absolutely soulless.

Therefore, after thinking and meditating for a long time, Li Yi finally decided to completely reverse the initial plan.

He wants to compile the Mantian God and Buddha first, and the Monkey King will put it at the end.

After determining the idea, Li Yi began to do it.

The first thing he knitted was the Jade Emperor, who was originally intended to be woven at the end.

He is the most exalted presence in the whole scene, and even in the entire backstory.

He is the ruler of the heavenly court, the emperor who rules the heavens, and will never be destroyed.

In the original story, although the Monkey King made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he did not hit the Jade Emperor, but only hit the outside of the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, which alarmed him.

After that, the Jade Emperor just sent a decree to the Western Heavens, so he invited Rulai to the Heavenly Court to refine demons for himself and save him.

And among all kinds of interpretations, he is the most mysterious and powerful existence in the entire Journey to the West.

Even the Monkey King seemed to be just a chicken and a dog in front of him.

Therefore, in Li Yi's planning, the Jade Emperor is also the largest of all the gods.

In his mind, he recalled all the paintings, statues, and text descriptions related to the Jade Emperor throughout the ages, and Li Yi kept in his hands.

The skeleton structure was first woven from broken yellow strips, and then woven with bamboo silk.

The slender bamboo threads seem to glow with life under his hands, spreading and growing with his weaving.

First of all, the dragon chair as the base gradually took shape, and the dragon pattern hovered on the nine-layer dragon platform below, and the auspicious clouds on both sides flowed, and the mist was shining.

On the dragon chair, a god body gradually took shape.

The crown embroidered with the nine-clawed golden dragon was wide, and the knee cover was heavy underneath, blocking the auspicious cloud boots.

Kui Long hovered his sleeves for a week, hanging down naturally, and his palms were on his knees.

At this point, the height of the idol has surpassed that of Li Yi.

Li Yi also had to bring in several boxes and a scaffold from the outside world to continue weaving.

The weaving of the upper body is more difficult, because there is a requirement for distance.

However, under Li Yi's weaving, soon, the figure of the Jade Emperor with broad shoulders appeared.

When he arrived at the head of the Six Suns, Li Yi's weaving speed completely slowed down.

Regardless of the idol, the face is the most important and the most difficult.

The image of the idol is the most intuitive belief of believers, and it is often directly related to the incense of the temple.

Therefore, many famous temples and temples do not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to make gold makeup for the statues of gods, all for the sake of more prosperous incense.

When sculpting the body, the craftsmen will make the idol make a compassionate and compassionate expression to give the believer enough comfort and thus increase the incense.

But the statue of the god woven by Li Yi is not to deceive people, but to present the connotation and spirit of the characters in the theme scene.

With Li Yi's weaving, a statue of the Jade Emperor with a graceful expression, slender eyes, upturned eyes, and a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth gradually appeared.

After weaving the crown hair with bamboo silk and the twelve rows of bead crowns, Li Yi hung down the strings one by one.

Also hanging down were five locks of long hair, hanging down on the curved collar of the golden scale dragon square heart on the chest.

As he put down the last string, Li Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Coming down from the scaffolding, Li Yi took two steps back, looking up at the three-meter-tall Jade Emperor statue, Li Yi was in a trance for a while.

Maybe his craftsmanship is too good, standing in front of this Jade Emperor statue, even Li Yi himself feels a little depressed.

He seemed to have the illusion that the eyes of this Jade Emperor hidden behind the string were staring at him.

And under the string, the smile on the corner of the Jade Emperor's mouth seemed to have become a little sarcastic, as if he was laughing at the monkey who was inadequate.

Li Yi sat on the ground a little tiredly, propped up the ground backwards, admiring the statue of the Jade Emperor.

The bamboo silk mountain, which was originally piled up, has been consumed.

The equivalent of one million golden bamboo and bamboo threads were all used to weave this Jade Emperor statue.

Before starting to weave his head, Li Yi was still a little bottomless in his heart, and he was ready to disassemble and rearrange it several times.

But the final result far exceeded his expectations, and the effect he wanted was perfectly chosen.

The facial expression of this Jade Emperor statue is extremely vivid, and even Li Yi himself is a little in a trance, as if he is about to stand up from the dragon chair in the next moment.

Especially the sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth showed Li Yi's thoughts to the fullest.

Looking at this statue of the Jade Emperor, Li Yi only had an unprecedented satisfaction in his heart.

Although there is no verification, he can already be sure.

This [Golden Silk Jade Emperor Statue] is definitely enough to be listed as a [hand-me-down]!
