Chapter 74 Two Fools

Grandpa Sun criticized the same as criticizing the second idiot, "Besides, do you think carving is so easy to learn? How many people have studied for many years and are still apprentices. Do you think you can become a master of jade carving?"

Only then did Han Zhenyang understand why he was regarded as a second fool by the old man.

Indeed, in the cognition of normal people, learning sculpture should start in one or two years, get started in three to five years, and become a talent in ten to eight years. As for becoming a famous master, it depends on good fortune and luck, not because you work hard. can succeed.

But is Han Zhenyang a normal person?From Qiao Shengnan Yang Xinyue who I met at the beginning, to He Qianjun who I met later, and Wang Xiaoyao and Wang Xiaohu who I just met, no one would treat him as a normal person.To put it bluntly, he is a "freak" in the eyes of these people, an out-and-out non-human.

Is it weird for non-humans to do something shocking?Just get used to it.

Grandpa Sun thought that Han Zhenyang was a second idiot, but Wang Xiaoyao didn't find it strange at all, he was just curious about how far Han Zhenyang could do it.

Of course, Mr. Sun had just met Han Zhenyang, so he didn't know how abnormal Han Zhenyang's learning ability was, so it was normal to have such a reaction.

Han Zhenyang smiled, "Teacher, others are others, and I am me. I am confident that I will reach a certain level in a short time."

"Anyone can brag," Old Man Sun said with a downcast face, "Whether it's a mule or a horse, pull it out for a walk, let's not talk about anything else, just draw me a Buddha's head."

Is this a test of art skills?
Han Zhenyang secretly smiled: If you test my sculpting foundation, I'm really blind, but if you test my art skills, hehe, you always miscalculate, look at me.

Thinking about it this way, I picked up a branch at random, squatted in the yard and swiped it up. With just a few strokes, the outline of a head came out. Then I added a few more strokes, and the facial features also appeared. After sketching a few times, the expression is in place. Finally, with a few embellishments, a lifelike Buddha head appears in the yard.

Look at Grandpa Sun again, with his mouth wide open in surprise, staring at the Buddha head on the ground in a daze, he didn't even notice that the apple in his hand was rolling down, he came back to his senses after a while, coughed and sat upright, "Not bad, barely pass , "He said he barely passed, but his expression said it all. Han Zhenyang's art skills completely exceeded his expectations.

Originally, the general Ye Luzi basically had no art skills, and they all learned after apprenticeship. This is also a bottleneck that restricts most craftsmen from becoming masters.The craftsmanship is easy to practice, but to sublimate the craftsmanship to the level of art, it requires a solid artistic foundation, and art is the most critical part.

If you know art yourself, and then learn to sculpt, it will be easier to get started.

However, the old man has a high shelf, so naturally he will not let it go easily, "The foundation is good, but although sculpture and art are related, they are two completely different forms of expression, so don't think that you are great, you have to start from the basics, Well, let’s identify the carving knife before we talk about anything else.”

There are many types of carving knives, such as square head spatula, triangular knife, file, polishing knife, etc., plus the difference of various models, there can be as many as ten or twenty carving knives in a set; but don’t forget, Han Zhenyang also learned purple sand There are more and more complicated tools needed to make teapots. There are more than ten kinds of tools alone, plus different models, there are nearly a hundred pieces in one set.

So the dozen or so carving knives in this area are not a big deal at all.

Of course, this is a wood carving knife. Although he studied jade carving, most of the basic carvings start from wood carving. Only after mastering the basic carving skills can we conduct classification research.

Grandpa Sun explained the basics of carving to Han Zhenyang. After a long time, he had to secretly admire: This kid's memory and understanding are so good, he can remember clearly after explaining it once. It is a genius to be able to draw inferences from one fact to another, but this kid can draw inferences from one fact to another. He is really a freak. If he continues to learn at this speed, it is really possible to become a talent quickly.

But the old man was afraid that Han Zhenyang would be proud, so instead of praising him, he called him stupid. In order to show that Han Zhenyang was really "stupid", he decisively threw out some advanced skills. The skills are not difficult to memorize, but the difficulty is to apply them in practice.

The old man thought that he could blow Han Zhenyang's prestige, but when he saw Han Zhenyang's learning results, he was immediately dumbfounded.

He asked Han Zhenyang to carve the Buddha head he painted on the wood with bas-relief techniques. He thought it would be enough for Han Zhenyang to study for three to five days. It needs to be polished, but generally there is no deviation.

And he found another advantage in Han Zhenyang, that is, he has great strength.

Ordinary people in the early stages of learning woodcarving mostly need the help of a mallet to operate the carving knife, but Han Zhenyang can hold the knife in one hand and press the wood with the other to carve, as easy as writing on white paper.

How strong is this wrist?

Grandpa Sun blinked and asked with a smile, "Xiao Han, your strength is not small."

Han Zhenyang rolled his eyes, and thought: You just found out now?Didn't you see that I carried the one-hundred-pound refrigerator in with one hand just now?
But he didn't dare to offend the old man, so he nodded quickly, "It's okay, it's alright, I've managed a few tricks."

"Oh? Which one?"

"It's just your family," Han Zhenyang said with a chuckle, "I have studied with that girl Wang Xiaoyao for a few days, so it can be considered your department. She is your apprentice."

"She's not my apprentice, and I just taught her a few things for her grandfather's sake." The old man curled his lips, and then waved with interest, "Come on, show me your hands."

Han Zhenyang's heart moved, but his face showed a look of embarrassment, "Teacher, I still have to learn carving. You know, my small shop is still waiting for me to learn the craft and go back to the emergency."

"Just take it easy, at worst, at worst, I'll just teach you a few more hands." The old man's expression was like that of an old urchin, almost scratching his head.It can be seen that the old man cares most about kung fu, and his interest in kung fu is much stronger than sculpture.

Han Zhenyang's sculpting talent was enough to shock the world, but the old man remained indifferent, and now he planned to teach him a few more sculpting skills just to see how his kung fu practiced.It can be seen from this that in the eyes of the old man, sculpture is just a foil skill, and kung fu is the foundation of his life.

Han Zhenyang was overjoyed to get the old man's promise. He stood in the yard and practiced a big frame. If you have attainments in Taijiquan, once you pull this frame, experts can see how much your kung fu is.

Grandpa Sun looked at it seriously, nodding while watching, but his face changed later.
