Jin Yutong

Chapter 178

Sensing that someone touched him from behind, Chen Ran turned his head and saw Guo Hai and Yang Long winking and waving at him, and pointed to the person behind him. A woman with golden side eyes, when Chen Ran looked back, the woman smiled at Chen Ran, and then handed Chen Ran a note.

Chen Ran also nodded at the woman and took the note.

Opening the note and looking at it, Chen Ran couldn't help crying and laughing, it turned out that Zhu Feng didn't know who asked for a few indicators, and Guo Hai and Yang Long were asking him which players to choose.

The process of betting on jade basically depends on luck, and it depends on the player's original reputation. Because the distance is too far, everyone can clearly see whether the jade carved by the player is good or bad. Whether the demeanor and movements at the time seemed to be the same thing, but the players present were all selected through layers of screening, and I am afraid that the movements of every player were very similar.

Therefore, this can be described as a complete gamble.

But at this point, Chen Ran is naturally an exception. Although his energy aperture can only detect the distance of ** meters, but his eyesight is excellent, basically all the players in the field can see clearly. It's like standing by and watching.

Just now I said that every movement and demeanor of the contestants present is like that, but in fact, it is not always the case. Similarly, there is one exception.

Chen Ran was also familiar with this exception, and it was Ah Han.

At the beginning of the competition, seeing Ah Han among the 50 people, Chen Ran was also a little surprised. He did not expect that Ah Han, who was so underestimated by others, would also make it to this level. This was not the most surprising thing to him Yes, what surprised him the most was Ah Han's knife skills.

On the surface, when Ah Han carved jade, he seemed to be clumsy, or in a hurry, as if his hands were too busy, but in fact it was not like this, Ah Han carved jade The reason why the process of carving gives people a situation where both hands are too busy is because Ah Han is carving jade with both hands.

When other people carve jade, they only use one carving knife, but Ah Han uses two carving knives to carve jade, and each hand holds one. In this way, other people can't see clearly, but feel Ah Han It seems to be in a hurry and 'messy'.

At first, Chen Ran felt strange when he saw Ah Han holding a carving knife in one hand, thinking that he was just playing around, but after he started carving jade, Chen Ran didn't think so.

Ah Han's movements are not fast, but every movement seems to be very harmonious, but it may be that the kung fu is not perfect, and occasionally it will be a little jerky. With both hands, the left hand holds the carving knife and gently strokes clockwise. He is also holding a carving knife, but he strokes it lightly in a counterclockwise direction, and finally his two hands meet at one point, as if drawing a yin and yang fish with both hands.

When he saw this scene, Chen Ran was quite surprised. The carving method Ah Han used was similar to his eight-knife split-wave knife method, but Ah Han's carving method was done with both hands. , the eight-knife and wave-knife method is done with one hand, Ah Han's drawing looks like a circle as a whole, but it is not round in reality, while what Chen Ran draws with the eight-knife and wave-knife method is a standard circle , not bad at all.

Comparing the two, whether it is difficulty or knife workmanship, Ah Han's carving method is undoubtedly a lot worse than his eight-knife split-wave knife method, but Ah Han's carving method is equally difficult to practice. It's not small, just imagine the old urchin's left and right fighting skills, and you can understand it. Undoubtedly, not everyone can learn it.

Although Ah Han's carving method can't be compared with the eight-knife split-wave knife method, it gave Chen Ran a lot of shock, because Ah Han's carving method, let alone he has seen it before. I have never heard of it, and there is no record of this carving method in the books he read about jade carving.

Of course, this is not the point, the point is that Ah Han can possess such a unique carving method, so what about other people, the Lu family, known as the royal court jade carving family, will they also have carving methods that he has never seen or heard of? Well... except for the Lu family, what about the others.

At this point, it seems that there is no need to guess at all.

The answer, obviously, is yes.

Chen Ran suddenly realized that he underestimated the people of the world. Ever since he got the eight-knife split-wave knife technique, he took it for granted that as long as he learned the eight-knife divide-wave knife technique, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself in the jade carving world. Especially after breaking through the bottleneck of the eight-sword split-wave sword technique and being able to use one knife and two techniques, he felt that the gold medal in the competition was already in his pocket. Looking at it now, this idea is undoubtedly a bit premature.

Since the Lu family of the palace jade carving family is called a family of jade carvings, there must be a unique carving method handed down within the family, and if a descendant of a family like Lu Tianming starts to practice the family carving method, he must have practiced it from an early age. Yes, in this case, at least it took more than ** years, and it took more than ** years to practice the method of carving.

However, Chen Ran had only practiced the eight-sword and wave-sword technique for less than a month. In the arena, there was no doubt that there was still a lot of uncertainty about who would win.

This is just Lu Tianming, but what about Li Baoping, the old phoenix has been passed down in China for hundreds of years, it can be passed down for hundreds of years, and it has not fallen down even after changing dynasties, which shows the background of the old phoenix.

What about the others except Li Baoping... Before he knew it, Chen Ran felt a little stressed and irritable.

But only for a moment, he suddenly smiled dumbly, he was very lucky to be able to get the eight-sword wave sword technique, what else is there to be dissatisfied with, besides, isn't this more interesting?

Thinking about it this way, the irritability between Chen Ran's brows suddenly disappeared, replaced by a fighting spirit, just like the peonies in the Peony Club, no doubt only when a hundred flowers are blooming can they bloom more The brilliance and dazzling... After thinking this through, Chen Ran suddenly found a new world unfolding in front of his eyes. China is vast and abundant, and has a history of thousands of years. How many strange carved jades have appeared in these thousands of years? Although most of the methods have been lost, there must be many handed down. As long as he walks along this road, he will definitely meet many such strange people hidden among the people.

For him, this is undoubtedly a brand new field that he has never imagined.

Seeing that the Progressive Competition was coming to an end, Chen Ran had already observed the jade works carved by the fifty contestants. At this moment, he almost had a score in his mind. He borrowed a pen and wrote down several code names for others to pass on to Guo Hai. past.

When the note was passed to Guo Hai, the three of them, Zhu Feng and Yang Long, immediately immersed themselves in the study. Huang Shang, the boss of Tianzhong Jinlong Jewelry Company who was sitting with them, also came over with interest to have a look. Every time he saw a code name, he They all went to the field to recognize people, and the first person they recognized was Ah Han.

He was also surprised to see that it was Ah Han's code name. When Ah Han was sculpting just now, he also took a look at it, but he just glanced at it and he didn't pay attention. Now he looked again and found that Ah Han Not only did he act in a hurry, but he also became a little flustered, and he couldn't help shaking his head again and again. Then he took a look at the information of fifty contestants, and after checking the information of Ah Han, he immediately let him Some stunned.

When Guo Hai and Zhu Feng were discussing about choosing Ah Han, he quickly dissuaded him, and showed Guo Hai and Zhu Feng the information on Ah Han, and said that when Ah Han carved jade, he was in a hurry It's 'messy', when he said that, Zhu Feng and Yang Long also hesitated, but Guo Hai still insisted on choosing Ah Han, and in the end both Zhu Feng and Yang Long decided to trust Chen Ran's vision.

Huang Shang tried to persuade them a few times, but they couldn't change their minds. He could only sigh helplessly, but he thought in his heart that these people really had no brains. , that is also a well-known figure, not something he can offend, otherwise he would not have given up the target to Zhu Feng.

When the time was about to end, quite a few contestants had finished carving and put down their carving knives, but they didn't relax. You must know that the competition in front of them is related to their jobs. If they can break into the top ten If it is, both the fame and the engraving fee will be greatly improved.

Ah Han's movements were a bit slow, and it seemed that the time was about to end, and he hadn't finished carving yet, so Chen Ran was sweating secretly for him. Fortunately, when Professor Xie announced the end of the competition, he just finished the last step. The way he put down the carving knife to wipe his sweat could tell that he must be sweating profusely too.

When Professor Xie called out that the competition was over, the staff immediately put the fifty pieces of jade sculptures carved by the fifty contestants in boxes according to the sequence number, and placed them in front of the expert judges.

In addition, some staff members accepted the bids for the guest seats.

Next, the expert judges scored [-] works, a total of six experts, with a full score of [-]. This score is not the same as the previous score, because the proportion of the previous score and the current score is different. Yes, you have to calculate the previous scores according to the proportion and add them together.

According to the order of ranking from No.11 to No.60, Professor Xie announced the scores of each contestant respectively, and at the same time announced the scores, he would also announce which guest won the bid.

In this process, naturally some people are sad and some are excited. While the contestants are sad or excited, the guests who choose them are also sad and excited.

To say that during this process, Guo Hai was the one who attracted the most attention. The few players Chen Ran selected for them were all in the top few, and almost all of them were unpopular, except for one who missed the shot. Besides, the others all won the bid. Whenever Professor Xie announced that they had won the bid, they all cheered, so that the continuous cheers attracted everyone in the audience.

Especially when it was the turn of the most unpopular Ah Han, it led the atmosphere of the audience to a climax. Ah Han was ranked last in the aggressive competition, but this time he directly won the No. 1. It surprised everyone. You must know that Ah Han’s reputation in the jade carving school is not small, but it’s just a bad reputation, but now the judges speak highly of his jade works. In this competition, he It can be said to be a blockbuster.

Ah Han rushed out like a dark horse, making Guo Hai and the others follow suit, and made a small profit. Not to mention anything else, only that the current price of Ah Han's work has almost doubled by ten. Many times, this also caused other bidding guests to look at them with envy. If you want to say that Huang Shang is the most dumb and suffering from eating Coptis chinensis, he just scolded Guo Hai and others for being brainless. Unexpectedly In a blink of an eye... When Chen Ran looked back, Zhu Feng excitedly raised his big mother's finger towards him, and the people sitting beside Chen Ran basically saw Guo Hai and the others passing the note to Chen Ran, In that way, you can guess that Guo Hai and the others are bidding according to what Chen Ran said. Once you see Zhu Feng raising his big mother's finger, it will be even more certain, and they can't help but look at Chen Ran in surprise. How did you guess it.

Putting these aside for the time being, after adding up the scores of the two times, a total of three contestants broke into the top ten in the progressive competition, and Ah Han was among them, but Ah Han was still ranked in the top ten. Finally, after all, his score was a bit too low before, and it was fortunate that the ratio was different, otherwise, even if he got a full score in the aggressive competition, he might not be able to break into the top ten.

After the aggressive competition, the most anticipated competition for the gold medal will come.

Professor Xie hadn't announced the start of the competition, but the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense... The last battle that didn't end, in this battle, who will lose and who will win!

It can be said that Ma Jian is proud of picking up a piece of shit luck, so in a battle, can he continue to be proud?

Lu Tianming, who was the most vocal, stumbled immediately. In this battle, can he turn the tide and turn defeat into victory?

Can Li Baoping, who is firmly in second place, go one step further and win the gold medal?

Of course, what people are most looking forward to is, how about Chen Ran, the carver who appeared like a dark horse miracle? Is the carver a mediocre name and Sun Shan, or is he once again a blockbuster like a dark horse?

All of this, at this moment, is still a suspense, and if you want to know the answer, you can only wait and see.

With Professor Xie's announcement, a competition between dragons and tigers finally came.
