Chapter 118 Luxurious craftsmanship
Zou Kai read out these two sentences: "Is this really the case?"
Lu Zian nodded: "Yes, Liuqing bamboo carving is the most stringent, it takes a long time, and carving is also very particular, so exquisite Liuqing bamboo carving has always been a treasure used by literati to appreciate. This is a luxurious craft and it is impossible to circulate on a large scale under general conditions."
Master Yi, who was following behind, was stunned for a moment, and a glimmer of gloom flashed through his eyes.
Lu Zian still has half a sentence, and it is impossible to make a living by craftsmanship.
Although Lu Zian has developed the method of carving in a random real world that can better display Jinling bamboo carvings in front of others, he also thinks that this is the hope for the transformation of Jinling bamboo carvings, but he still feels not optimistic about the prospects of people accepting bamboo carvings.
Finally, they picked a very good bamboo. Boss Tang and his team brought all the tools and uprooted the entire bamboo without damaging the skin. Then they carried it down the mountain to the flat ground and then broke it to the appropriate length.
Because the huge stone is very flat and Master Yi is older, Lu Zian is worried that something will happen to him, so he said he will not climb the mountain and rest on the huge stone. When the disciples return, they will teach them the bamboo carving skills directly.
There is a breeze that brings a hint of coolness but does not feel too cold.
Shen Mange stood beside Lu Zi'an and smiled and said, "So beautiful."
Indeed, the white mist in the distance gradually dissipated under the sunlight. Looking down from the mountain, the bamboo forest swaying lightly in the valley is particularly beautiful.
Especially when standing in such a forest, listening to the sound of the bamboo forest, I feel even more at peace in my body and mind, and my whole mind is calm.
[Wow, the young lady’s voice is so nice, please say a few more words!]
"The art of bamboo carving is about the state of mind." Sitting on the stool he brought, Master Yi smiled and said, "So it is beneficial to go out and walk often."
Lu Zian nodded: "Look at the changes of the four seasons and the subtle growth, each landscape brings different feelings, so some people say that the real interest is between the mountains and rivers."
【Where is this? It feels really beautiful. Is it a tourist attraction?】
[Anchor, please turn the camera, I have seen the young lady’s clothes!]
"This is Zhushan in the suburbs of Dongyang, and the scenery is really good." Zou Kai looked at it and shook his head decisively: "The camera will not turn, and it will never turn. If you show it, I will be beaten to death!"
【Why??】
【The young lady’s voice sounds so gentle that she won’t hit you!】
Haha, that's your illusion.
Zou Kai insisted on his own opinion, and in order to prevent them from quarreling endlessly, he simply turned around and took them to see the scenery.
After chatting for a while, Master Yi's apprentices turned back. Lu Zian wanted them to rest and start, but they were so excited that their eyes shone with sweat, and their foreheads were covered with sweat, so they waved their hands: "Not tired or tired, really, Master Lu, you can start!"
Lu Zian took the bamboo tube and was about to sit on the ground, but Shen Mange took out her big bag: "Wait a moment! You will catch a cold when you sit on the ground!"
Then, in the stunned expression of everyone, she took out a blanket and placed it on the stone, then folded the chair, and then covered it with a soft chair cushion, happily clapping her hands: "Okay, you can sit!"
"..." The disciples sitting on the ground next to them: It's heartbreaking, Lao Tie.
Lu Zian wanted to laugh a little, but he still held back and sat down straight: "Okay, then I'll start."
"First of all, you must draw the drawing on the bamboo surface and use various carving techniques to handle the knife." Lu Zi'an picked up the flat-mouth knife: "Shut off the blank space with the flat-mouth knife, pay attention to not being too strong, use the force steadily, slow, and do not rush to achieve success."
The disciples each learned to carve a bamboo tube. They all had a foundation, so it was still easy.
"The green part is carved, and the flat mouth is used to change the knife." Lu Zi'an changed the knife: "The most surface layer of bamboo green can be used to express the near and bright parts of the scenery. In this way, a deeper layer of vision is expressed on the exposed bamboo muscles, making the work more three-dimensional."
They have no problem with this part, because after all, they have been learning from Ling Zhucheng for so many years.
Lu Zi'an nodded with satisfaction: "The bamboo should be carved into wood below, but you have to observe its own texture, carve it according to its own texture, and deepen the places you see, like wood grain, to create a visual illusion..."
At this point, everyone started to get in chaos.
“How did this be done?”
"Yes, how can the lines here turn like this? Bamboo carving is not..."
Lu Zi'an carefully displayed the same movement back and forth several times, and explained it over and over again. Finally, they figured it out. Seeing that they had made some progress, he calmly said: "The knife movement is precise and refreshing, elegant, and the lines are vigorous and concise. Although bamboo carvings have limitations in the production level, they can also use these limitations to create landscapes and break the shapes, and set in a new artistic conception!"
He blew up the crumbs: "In order to conform to the aesthetics of modern people and integrate bamboo carving art into people's lives, you can slightly reduce the complex carvings and add a simple and natural atmosphere, but at the same time, you should try to present your cultivation and culture on it."
Lu Zian is extremely proficient in the shallow carvings of reliefs. His swordsmanship is simple and light, and his skills are proficient. With just a few swords, he vividly expresses the strong wind.
A bamboo forest in early winter is vividly viewed on the bamboo. The scenery is meticulous and realistic. The slightly undulating lines of the bamboo forest reflect the feeling of wind. The whole work is full of interest.
Shen Mange leaned against a bamboo and looked at Lu Zi'an from afar.
The bamboo forest was rustling with its back against the blue sky. He integrated into this picture without any trace. Looking at the bamboo tube's eyebrows and eyes seriously and affectionate, it made people feel heart-pounding.
His heartbeats a little fast, and Shen Mange couldn't help but take out his cell phone and take a photo.
"Oh...what are you filming?" Zou Kai came over with a slut because they were talking about those details. He couldn't broadcast live. He was bored now.
"I'm taking pictures of the scenery." Singer Shen Man almost threw his phone away with a trembling sound, but he still insisted on taking pictures of the scenery: "I'll send it to Dudo!"
Sent to Dodole?
Zou Kai rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Hehe, do you want to take a photo of me and send it to her?"
"You?" Shen Mange looked at him suspiciously, raised his hand and slapped him and sent it out.
Qu Duoduo replied soon: [Hahahahahaha, this is a pig, right?]
Shen Mange clicked on the photo and couldn't help laughing. His nostrils were taken very large...
"Damn it, delete it!" Zou Kai was angry: "I'm not ready yet, you are really..."
[Wow, so beautiful, envious, where is this? It's simply a paradise!] But Qu Duodou looked at the two scenery photos in the front.
Shen Mange replied seriously that where she was. Zou Kai originally wanted to grab it, but after reading Qu Duoduo's words, he couldn't hold it tight and laughed so hard that he couldn't even have the strength to do it.
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Mange looked at him vigilantly. Seeing that Zou Kai was so smiling that he couldn't stand up straight while holding the bamboo, he simply changed the bamboo: "The second fool."
"What's wrong with the second? What's wrong with the second?" Zou Kai slowly, smiling and said, "There is no more genius than the talent. Do you think I'm a second? That's because I'm a genius!"
Chen Mange glanced at him, his eyes were very obvious: I'm afraid he wasn't a fool, right?
The teaching of Lu Zi'an and his team came to an end. They were about to pack up their things and go down the mountain, but they heard someone coming from the front, obviously walking here, and the sound became clearer and clearer.
