Chapter 470 What did you see?
"What I want is this flash of inspiration."
At this time, Mr. Xi praised happily: "It is easy to feel whether the work has spirituality. The essence of jade will not change, but the situation of jade materials is ever-changing."
"No matter what the jade material looks like, beginners will carve according to their own wishes. A slightly better carving master uses the jade material based on the material properties, color, shape, etc., and maximizes the use of jade material. A more intelligent person will turn flaws into merits and cleverly use the flaws in jade to make the work vivid and more realistic."
Mr. Xi said in a whisper: "Of course, no matter how powerful the above three are, they are just skilled craftsmen and cannot be considered masters. A real master, or a real master's work, can be experienced and appreciated by ordinary people."
"It's like your famous work, openwork lock?"
Lu Chongming complimented: "There are large pieces of jade materials to be carved into a lock shape, and the rings are connected to each other, forming a hanging belt. Moreover, the position of the lock core can be opened with a jade key. There are dragon and phoenix patterns inside, but they are reflected from the inside and outside. However, the surface is clean and smooth, crystal clear, and there is no trace of carving. When people see it, they all admire it as a treasure that is passed down from generation to generation."
"Um."
Mr. Xi did not be humble, nor did he need to be humble. He nodded directly and said, "That was the inspiration I got when I accidentally saw someone making an inner painting pot. It took me a whole year of hard work for that thing. There is no need to say much about loneliness during this period. The repeated research and verification process almost made me give up. Fortunately, I gritted my teeth and persevered, and it was considered that I took that step."
"Do you know why I'm suppressing you and not allowing you to participate in the national master assessment?"
At the right time, Mr. Xi explained: "It is not only because you are unstable and have insufficient accumulation, but more importantly, you have not produced a convincing work. You will definitely fail to participate. Instead of losing face like this, it is better to temper your temper for a few more years and wait until you have real strength and win the championship in one fell swoop. That is the true reputation."
"Master, don't worry, I understand the principle of accumulating strength." Lu Chongming said in a key point: "As long as I don't create a work that satisfies you in one day, I will not participate in any assessment competition."
"It's not to satisfy me, but to make yourself truly satisfied."
Mr. Xi smiled and said, "I have already said that a forced melon is not sweet, everything depends on you. If you have ambition, then strictly demand yourself. If you want to live a life of silence, I will turn a blind eye and let it go."
“Yes, yes, yes…”
Lu Chongming nodded repeatedly, but knew that he could not believe this. One day he was really lazy, and he would definitely be light in scolding, and he would definitely not be vague when he beats someone. Moreover, even if he knew that he was beaten, he could not hide and he had to bear it obediently.
Why is it called a master? Not a teacher? Different names represent different meanings.
It is definitely wrong for a teacher to beat a student, because the teacher-student relationship is no longer different from the trading of goods. I give the money, you teach me how to trade fairly and reasonably. There is no reason to ask for additional efforts.
However, Lu Chongming really kowtowed and became a disciple, but it represents a kind of inheritance. Not only do he not charge you money, he also needs to provide you with delicious food and drink, teaching you the ability to make money.
The so-called "being like a teacher or a father" is the truth. If a master hits someone, it is equivalent to being a son. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is not a big deal. On the contrary, if you avoid or resist, this is the real disobedience, unfilial piety, and despised by others.
"This ball is good."
At the same time, after teaching a few lessons, Mr. Xi carefully looked at the stone balls on the coffee table and saw the dynamic-like visual effect on the surface of the sphere.
After watching for a while, Mr. Xi praised: "It is indeed a very spiritual thing. However, this spirituality is mainly reflected in the materials, not the effect of craftsmanship. Therefore, things are artistic treasures, but they have little to do with the author."
"Um."
Lu Chongming nodded gently. Although every jade carver wants to get good materials to carve, he prefers to turn decay into magic to highlight his own technical craftsmanship.
"Frozen fossils, such high-end stones are rare now." Mr. Xi touched slightly, picked up the stone balls and watched them with interest.
After looking at it for a while, Old Xi's brows gradually frowned slightly, and his expression gradually became more focused. He rubbed his palms on the sphere, and even lifted the sphere into the air to look at it.
This action naturally made Yu Feibai and Lu Chongming look at each other, a little confused.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
After a while, he found that Mr. Xi was still studying stone balls repeatedly. Lu Chongming finally couldn't help but ask carefully: "What's wrong with the things?"
Mr. Xi did not answer, but reached out and said, "Go and get a flashlight."
"oh!"
Lu Chongming was stunned and wanted to get up to look for it. However, at this time, Wang Guan touched his pocket and handed over a small and exquisite flashlight. After all, as a professional connoisseur, flashlights and magnifying glasses, plus white gloves, are essential items, so they naturally have to carry them with you.
Mr. Xi didn't care who handed the flashlight, and took it over and pressed it to search the stone ball. Although the flashlight was small, the light was very strong, and it immediately created a sense of transparency when reflected on the smooth sphere as a mirror. The frozen fossil was originally translucent, but now after the strong light, the position of the edge of the spherical surface seemed to become transparent.
Of course, becoming transparent is not really transparent.
Mr. Xi focused on observing for a moment, then suddenly looked up and said, "Go, get seven or eight flashlights."
"Master, why do you want so many flashlights?" Lu Chongming was stunned and scratched his head and said, "There shouldn't be at home..."
"If you don't have one, go buy it."
Mr. Xi waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, if you want such a strong light, buy more than a dozen of them."
"good."
Seeing this, Lu Chongming felt no matter how strange he was, he could only put it aside and immediately ran out and drove away.
During this period, when Wang Guan and Yu Feibai saw Mr. Xi's concentration, they naturally did not dare to disturb him. More than ten minutes later, Lu Chongming came back and carried a box of flashlights in front of Mr. Xi.
"Um……"
At this time, Mr. Xi nodded, stood up and placed the stone ball on a taller table next to it, and then moved the little things on the table away, leaving only the stone balls alone in the middle.
"Everyone comes here, each of them takes two flashlights. Hit this thing in different directions."
At the same time, Mr. Xi began to arrange troops. The four people were in exactly four directions, and the remaining flashlight was placed around the table, and even one was hung above the stone ball.
In a moment, more than ten strong beams of light were like intertwined nets, completely surrounding the stone ball.
At this time, the sun had already set and the sky was dim. The indoor lights were all turned off at the warning of Mr. Xi, and only the light of the flashlight was intertwined. Moreover, the stone ball surrounded by the light naturally became the focus. Not to mention, it was surrounded by more than a dozen strong lights, and the originally shiny spherical surface suddenly became more crystal clear.
"ah!"
At this moment, Yu Feibai screamed out in a flash and said in a trembling voice: "The thing is gone."
"What's missing?"
Lu Chongming said in surprise: "It's still there..."
He couldn't continue to say it, because at this moment, the stone ball that had already emitted crystal light in his eyes also disappeared bizarrely in the blink of an eye, completely disappearing in front of him.
"Don't move."
Just when the two were shocked, Mr. Xi said anxiously: "Don't move, keep illuminating, and continue watching."
When Yu Feibai and Lu Chongming heard the sound, their arms, which were already a little trembling, immediately stabilized and understood a little. The two of them blinked heavily and adjusted their visual sense, and then they saw the outline of the stone ball on the table again.
After some inspection, the two understood the reason why the stone ball was "missed".
It turned out that in a dim environment, the dark color on the sphere merged with the environment. Surrounded by strong light, the white components on the surface of the sphere spread out infinitely. In an instant, the stone ball became a "transparent" state.
Human vision often makes it easy to deceive themselves. Seeing this situation, the two naturally think that the stone ball has disappeared. However, although they understand the reason, with their limited eyesight, they can only capture the outline of the stone ball.
"What a weird thing."
In an instant, Lu Chongming couldn't help but exclaim: "No, it's not weird, it should be said to be a magical one. Master, how did you discover this phenomenon?"
However, at this time, Mr. Xi did not explain. Instead, he turned off the flashlight first, with a thoughtful expression: "No, it shouldn't be like this..."
"Old Mr. Xi, what are you saying wrong?" Yu Feibai asked curiously, but received no response.
Seeing this, Lu Chongming smiled helplessly and whispered: "He is concentrating on thinking and no longer cared about the things outside of him."
"oh."
Yu Feibai nodded understandingly, knowing that when some people are focusing on thinking about problems, even if someone beats gongs and drums in his ears, they probably won't wake up.
"What's wrong?" Mr. Xi murmured to himself, falling into pain.
At this time, Wang Guan couldn't help but remind him: "Maybe the wrong direction."
“Yes, it’s the direction.”
A word woke up the dreamer. Mr. Xi immediately woke up and immediately stepped forward to adjust the direction of the stone ball. After pounding for a while, he asked everyone to continue to shine with a strong flashlight.
In an instant, more than a dozen strong lights continued to cover the surface of the stone ball. After a while, everyone's vision stabilized, but the situation they saw was completely different from what they had just seen.
"How is this possible..."
In an instant, Lu Chongming saw something even more incredible, and he could no longer maintain a calm mood. In shock, the light of the flashlight in his hand also trembled.
"Don't make a fuss."
Mr. Xi's voice was a little surprised, but he scolded: "Don't you know the principle of astigmatism refraction?"
"Wang Guan, I suddenly felt that I was really dazzled now." At the same time, Yu Feibai closed his eyes tightly for more than ten seconds before he opened his eyes wide open. The more he looked, the less calm he became. He said with a trembling voice: "Do you know what I see now?"
