God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 191

Breakfast is very simple, millet porridge with pancakes, and then a large plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

For ordinary people, this breakfast is a bit hard, but it suits Xu Jingxing's appetite, and he ate two thirds of the breakfast.

After breakfast, the master and apprentice began to prepare for the day's work as if nothing had happened. Their job was very simple, that is, to do carving, prepare the wood, knives and related drawings needed for the day, and then start work.

Of course, Xu Jingxing still had to go to old man Zhu's house, so he took advantage of the time to guide An Xin, teaching her how to use a knife and how to carve.In fact, he doesn’t need to guide too much. The basic skills of carving are not difficult, it’s just a proficient process. The most difficult part lies in the design and creation and the adaptability in the carving process, so he will do his own work after a few simple pointers. up.

Before 08:30, a lifelike statue of Guan Gong was successfully carved.

This statue of Guan Gong is not too tall, only about forty centimeters. It is a sitting statue, and its shape is also very simple. It is sitting on a chair, holding a knife in one hand and brushing its beard with the other, looking forward with a majestic expression.However, this statue of Guan Gong, which is not outstanding in shape and size, reveals a strong murderous aura. I didn't pay so much attention when carving it, but after careful inspection after carving it, it was a bit awe-inspiring, not even awe-inspiring. Dare to look at the statue I carved, as if this is not an ordinary wooden statue, but Guan Erye's real body.

This……

He was a little surprised and puzzled.Surprisingly, the statue carved by hand has some "spirituality" that fine statues do not have, which shows that his craftsmanship has improved again, at least when he carved this statue of Guan Gong, his level was very high; doubts What's more, he has no idea where the "spirituality" of this statue of Guan Gong comes from. The carving techniques, wood, and shape of the statue he used are all ordinary, so it should not be possible to have such a magical effect.

So, what is the reason?
He couldn't find it after searching for a long time, so he couldn't help asking An Xin who was beside him: "An Xin, look at this..."

An Xin saw this statue of Guan Gong and didn't pay attention at first, but when she looked closely, she was startled, her face turned pale, and she even retreated as if she saw something terrible, if it wasn't for Xu Jingxing's quick hands and eyes Pull her, she has fallen to the ground.

"What's wrong?" An Xin's reaction frightened him.

An Xin swallowed with difficulty, looked at the statue of Guan Gong, and then at Xu Jingxing, and then forced a smile, "This, this, the murderous intent is too strong..."

"I know, but, you don't have to be scared like that, right?" Xu Jingxing was a little dumbfounded for a while, this statue of Guan Gong did have a murderous look, but An Xin's reaction was too strong, I don't know, I thought it was seeing Guan Gong The second master has manifested himself.

An Xin blushed, and said, "But, that feeling is very similar to yours last night—" When she said this, she immediately covered her mouth.

Xu Jingxing was stunned, and then he understood what An Xin meant, this girl secretly watched the scene of him fighting with those murderers last night.Even he himself couldn't bear to think about that scene. He didn't know how the girl had survived until now as if nothing had happened.

Thinking of this, he sighed and patted An Xin's head, "It's okay, just watch a horror movie."

An Xin let out a "huh", but then added in a low voice: "But Master, your movements are really handsome, but the murderous look is too strong, I only took one look and didn't dare to look any more."

That's okay, I didn't fully witness those bloody scenes.

Thinking of this, he said with a smile, "I didn't dare to look more and peeked, but I thought you were obediently closing your eyes all the time." He said and turned his eyes back to the portrait of Guan Gong in front of him, thoughtful, could it be , This statue of Guan Gong has become so "supernatural", is it related to what happened to me last night?

At this time, I saw that the big knife in Guan Erye's hand was somewhat similar to the plain knife he used last night, especially the curvature of the blade, which was almost exactly the same. Although it was carved from wood, the sharp edge could still be felt Added killing intent.A large part of the reason for the statue's murderous aura comes from this blade.

This is when carving, unknowingly instilling all the murderous energy accumulated last night into this wooden carving knife?

Xu Jingxing pondered secretly for a moment, but he couldn't figure it out, but he felt that this should be the reason, but how he did it, he still didn't quite know, if he could master this kind of carving technique, then he would definitely become a sculpture respected by everyone Grandmaster.

Of course, he knows the principle in his mind. It is similar to the statue of Lu Zu carved in Xiaoqingshan. By fine-tuning the size, lines, facial expressions and angles of the statue, the statue has a kind of Cause visual or mental oppression.

He was able to do that because the statue was the most important in all dynasties, and through the experiments of countless sculptors, he had accumulated relevant skills. Those descendants only need to master which skills to make the statue have a "psychic" effect.

But his statue of Guan Gong is different. The key point for this statue of Guan Gong to have such a heavy murderous aura is not in Guan Gong's facial expression and shape, but in the Qinglongyanyue knife.The sculptors in ancient times did not study knives as deeply as they did the statues themselves, so Xu Jingxing had no precedents to follow and could only explore slowly by himself.

Just like what those domestic military experts did to Maozi's engine, they don't know how the engine was made, but they can master the skills of making the engine by reverse deduction, exploration and research on the physical engine.

What Xu Jingxing wanted to do was the same, by researching this statue of Guan Gong, especially the big knife on the statue of Guan Gong, to find out the reason why this knife can "psychic".Some people said, do a 3D scan and print out exactly the same size?

But carving is far from a simple matter. In addition to the most basic size, the pattern, color and luster of the statue itself, the light and shade of the lines, and even the smoothness of the polishing all affect the fineness of the statue.Moreover, different people engrave the same line, even if the length, width, depth, and curvature are exactly the same, there are differences in the eyes of experts.

This difference sounds mysterious, but it can be distinguished.

Just like calligraphy, it is also a picture of Wang Xizhi. If you use a machine to print a copy, no matter how exquisite the printing is, using exactly the same pen, ink and paper, or even after professional old-fashioned treatment, it will not be able to hide from the eyes of experts. It is seen through at a glance.
