Emerald King

Chapter 19 The Covenant

Lin Yue nodded and said: "I used to study art design, and I was very interested in things full of beauty and spirituality. I think sculpture is amazing. In the hands of a sculptor, anything can become an incomparably beautiful thing in the world. Especially when it is spiritualized by people, it is even more moving. I think it is a very wonderful thing that a thing such as wood, jade, and stone becomes a person or thing full of beauty in my hands."

Chang Tai nodded when he heard this. Interest is the motivation for learning, but he doesn't know how long this interest can last.Many people are just temporary interests, and they will retreat when they know that there is an extremely boring process in it. He has seen many such people.

He Changhe was listening to the conversation of the old and the young, and didn't know how to intervene. The other party's selection of apprentices was not a matter for him to intervene in. It was the other party's business whether to accept or not.

"En. It seems that you are quite interested in sculpture. Have you ever learned sculpture before?" Chang Tai asked again.

Lin Yue shook his head with regret on his face and said, "No, I wanted to learn after graduating from university, but no one taught me. Later, I entered a jadeite processing workshop, where jadeite ornaments were not carved by hand but by machines. At that time, I felt It's very awkward, jadeite was originally a spiritual thing but they turned it into a dead thing." Jade King 19

"What did you do before?"

"The calculus worker in the processing workshop is now working in He Lao's Rong Lexuan."

At this time, He Changhe interjected appropriately: "Although Lin Yue is young, he has the best stone-dissolving technology in our factory."

"Oh? So your eyes and your grasp of saw blades are very good?" At this time, Chang Tai's eyes finally showed a little interest.

"It's okay, Mr. He said that there is still a big gap between me and the real master Jieshi." Lin Yue said with some embarrassment, he didn't dare to say big things in front of two masters.

Chang Tai nodded when he heard the words, very satisfied with Lin Yue's modest attitude, and then said: "Can I see your hand?"

"Hands?" Lin Yue was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Chang Tai meant, but he still stood up and walked in front of Chang Tai, deeply holding his hands.

Lin Yue's hands are very slender and extremely fair. They don't look like the hands a man should have at all. He has envied so many girls with his hands.Many girls sighed loudly after seeing his hands, "These hands were born to the wrong person", which made Lin Yue very embarrassed.

After seeing Lin Yue's slender hands, Chang Tai couldn't help but flash a bright color in his eyes.Then he moved Lin Yue's fingers, then smiled and motioned Lin Yue to sit back.

Afterwards, Chang Tai refused to mention the matter of carving, and kept chatting with He Changhe and Lin Yue. The three chatted until morning, and then had lunch at Chang Tai's house, with Li Qingmeng as company. The elders are there, but there is still no smile on her face, only a warm color flashes in her eyes occasionally, just like an ice sculpture that has not been painted for a thousand years, it just brings a little human emotion.

Chang Tai was like an ordinary and kind old man, drinking and talking with He Changhe, and telling Lin Yue and Li Qingmeng some of his experiences in life and life from time to time. The meal was enjoyable, but Lin Yue's psychology was very different. bitter.

Chang Tai's attitude made Lin Yue feel very depressed. Could it be that his hands are not suitable for carving?Why haven't you talked about carving since you saw your own hands?

It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon when they were about to leave that Lin Yue felt a little hopeful, because he was called into the study alone by Chang Tai.

Chang Tai didn't talk nonsense, and said, "Learning to carve is not a day's work, can you bear this pain?"

"Yes!" Lin Yue nodded affirmatively, with a hint of anticipation in his heart.

"Don't be so full of words. The pain in it is not something that ordinary people can understand. You can only know it after experiencing it. Since you want to learn carving, it means you like this. You have to know that carving is an art first, and the means of making a living second. , if you put the cart before the horse, even if you enter the carved door, you will not be able to truly enter the room." Chang Tai's tone became very severe after speaking.

Lin Yue nodded solemnly, he will never let the stink of money let us learn this art, anyway, he will rely on supernatural powers to gamble on stones in the future, and he has plenty of money, so he doesn't need to use sculpture to make money at all.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I'll give you a solution. When you get home, put a burning incense stick in your room at night. Take a knife, no matter what kind of knife it is, and don't turn on the light. , when it is completely dark and only the incense is lit, you use a knife to chop the incense, and you will be given a month to chop the incense with at least six out of ten knives, otherwise the two of us will be regarded as destined, and after a month Today you come to my house and I will test your results."

Slashing ordinary incense with a knife in the dark at night?Emerald King 19

Ten hits must have at least six hits?

Give a month?

Lin Yue looked at Chang Tai in disbelief, this was a test for him, isn't it difficult for someone to do it?

It is impossible for someone to do it in such a short period of time within a month!

Lin Yue suddenly felt that his dream was getting farther and farther away from him. Is it so difficult to learn carving by himself?

But soon, Lin Yue recovered from the heavy depression. It's a big deal. Since the other party said so, someone must be able to practice within a month, otherwise it means that the other party doesn't want to accept him as an apprentice at all.Since I don't want to make such a big detour, the second possibility is not true, so there is only one possibility.

Since someone can succeed, Lin Yue is confident that he can succeed too.

He nodded heavily at Chang Tai and said, "Okay, I will come back in a month."

Chang Tai glanced at Lin Yue in surprise, puzzled by Lin Yue's willingness to agree, and then said lightly:

"Don't tell He Chang and that dead old man about this, if he finds out you have no chance at all!"

Listening to what Chang Tai said was serious, Lin Yue nodded.

Soon, Lin Yue left Chang Tai's home with He Changhe.

On the way, He Changhe saw Lin Yue's expression faintly depressed, and asked, "Did that dead old man tell you something in the study?"

"I didn't say anything, I just chatted casually." Lin Yue clearly remembered his agreement with Chang Tai.

"Just chatting casually?" He Changhe glanced at Lin Yue meaningfully, smiled, and stopped asking.

After He Changhe and Lin Yue left, Chang Tai was alone. At this time, Li Qingmeng came in from outside with a cup of tea.

"Teacher, please drink some water."

Li Qingmeng put the tea on the side of the desk, and was about to retreat, but heard Chang Tai ask: "Qingmeng, do you know what old man He and that young man are here for?"

Li Qingmeng shook his head, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Hehe, he came to apprentice, but whether I accept him or not depends on his performance in a month."

Chang Tai picked up the teacup and took a sip, thinking that there was a meaningful look in his eyes outside the window.

Li Qingmeng next to him still seemed calm and just nodded slightly.Emerald King 19

Along the way, Lin Yue was always thinking about Chang Tai's words. He put a burning incense stick in the dark and hacked with a knife. He hit at least six of the ten knives. Can he really do it?What should I do?

Lin Yue practiced chopping incense with a knife back and forth in his mind, the more he wanted to chop the incense, but he couldn't hit it, which made his hope like a candle in a strong wind be on the verge of being extinguished at any time.

Lin Yue sighed heavily, forget it, at worst, he will go to Chang Tai's house to explain the situation in a month's time, but before that, he has to try his best and do his best.

Soon he arrived at the intersection where Lin Yue boarded the car. Lin Yue slowly got out of the car. Just as he was about to say goodbye to He Changhe, He Changhe rolled down the window of the car.He said to Lin Yue meaningfully: "No matter what you do, it's good to do your best. If you and Lao Chang really don't have a fate, it doesn't mean anything. At worst, you can change another master. There are thousands of capable people in China. There is always one who is suitable. Teach your master. Another point is that the master leads the door to practice on the individual, no matter how good the teacher is, it will not work if you don’t rely on your own study and study. The most important thing to learn about sculpture is not Lao Chang but yourself.”

He Changhe's words were like enlightenment, awakening the bewildered Lin Yue.
