Dragon's Origin

It has to be said that although the little teacher was young, he didn't cut corners at all when it came to laying the foundation for Wang Sheng. Of course, to a large extent, it also depended on Wang Sheng's serious attitude towards learning carving, without any laziness.

In addition, Wang Sheng's cultivation improvement and the enhancement of various control abilities were also a major reason for Wang Sheng's rapid progress in the basic stage. Whether it was strength or control, Wang Sheng was much better than the little teacher, only inferior in some talents. But when the same basic works were presented, it could still be seen that Wang Sheng was better than the little teacher in pure handwork.

"The basic techniques, shaping, you should have learned almost everything." After Master Lu watched Wang Sheng carve a simple pumpkin stone carving, he gave this evaluation: "Next, you can do some more complex things."

Wang Sheng nodded and continued to wait for Master Lu's evaluation.

"To be honest, your current work is very orthodox and follows the rules." Master Lu still started with good words, which made people happy to hear. Being able to do this in just over a month is also something Wang Sheng should be proud of.

"The things you make are correct, unbiased, and can carve anything to look like anything, full of craftsmanship." Master Lu smiled as he ate the food made by Wang Sheng and drank the fine wine Wang Sheng offered, commenting very seriously: "But if you continue like this, you will at most reach the level of a craftsman, and you will not become a master, let alone a grandmaster, understand?"

What's not to understand about this? It's just that Wang Sheng's current trend is at most a level of copying, and at best, a role relying on model replication. Without his own style, without his own artistic conception, just a carving worker, there's nothing he can't understand.

Wang Sheng was already very satisfied to be able to reach this level in just over a month from having no foundation. Master Lu's words were not belittling Wang Sheng, didn't he hear the satisfaction in his tone?

"If you want to become a master, if you want to become a grandmaster, you have to carve naturally, but you also have to have your own style, your unique style." Master Lu was sincerely guiding him, and he didn't hide anything: "Although this is difficult, you have to pursue this direction."

"How can I do it?" Wang Sheng asked very earnestly.

"First, practice." Master Lu didn't waste words and gave the answer very simply: "A lot of practice, just like those killing skills you cultivate, first practice until you are skilled, practice makes perfect, when you are so skilled that you can use any posture and technique to achieve the effect you want with one hammer, you can continue to the next step."

"Your previous practice, to put it bluntly, was just practicing the basic skills of carving. It's the skill of every hammer and chisel. After mastering the effect that each strike can achieve, you should actually put down these skills first and then turn to the overall situation." Master Lu continued to guide: "At this time, you can ignore the effect of each hammer and chisel, and even let go completely, relying only on your imagination to complete a certain image."

"When you can really complete the overall conception entirely by relying on your imagination, you will find that carving is not difficult at all. It's just using your previous basic skills, one hammer and one chisel, to outline the image in your imagination." Master Lu said with a smile: "The hammer and chisel are just the brushes in your hand."

"Have a well-thought-out plan before you start, I understand!" Wang Sheng nodded again.

Master Lu was very surprised, but it didn't prevent him from appreciating Wang Sheng. Although he didn't know where the allusion of Wang Sheng's well-thought-out plan came from, the meaning was correct.

"At this time, you can actually carve out some things with your own style." Master Lu continued: "If people are not modest, they can barely call you a master."

"What about after that?" Wang Sheng was not polite and continued to ask about the content behind.

"According to this pace, continue to become skilled through practice. No matter what you carve, you can think of what to carve when you see the material. The technique is natural and you can do whatever you want." Master Lu did not blame Wang Sheng for wanting to run before he knew how to walk, and answered every question: "At this time, you are basically a proper master."

"Continuing, after doing whatever you want, forget everything you've thought about and learned before." Master Lu was getting excited from drinking and started to talk about the next step without waiting for Wang Sheng to ask: "Calm down and once again use the most basic techniques, the most orthodox methods, one hammer and one chisel, to carefully and meticulously carve a large batch of objects, and you will find that with the same techniques and the same materials, the craftsmanship is gone."

"At this point, although you are using the most orthodox techniques to carve things, people will see your shadow no matter how they look at it." Master Lu looked into Wang Sheng's eyes and said very seriously: "At this time, you are a grandmaster."

"What about the great grandmaster?" Wang Sheng also cooperated, seeing Master Lu getting excited, and continued to ask.

"The great grandmaster is even simpler." Master Lu laughed: "Continue to carve seriously, once again do whatever you want, carve however you want, carve however you are comfortable. When the things you carve make others feel comfortable and natural no matter how they look at them, but naturally still carry your shadow, then you are almost a great grandmaster."

These words were also being heard by Wang Sheng's little teacher, Master Lu's closed-door disciple, but he was still young after all, he could hear clearly and remember firmly, but he couldn't understand. However, Master Lu had already taught him that it didn't matter if he didn't understand, just remember it first and slowly ponder it. Now the little teacher is using this method, remember it first.

As for Wang Sheng, he fell into deep thought. Master Lu's description sounded very easy, but Wang Sheng understood that the hardship contained in it was far from being completed in a few years or decades. Moreover, the process described by Master Lu seemed to really contain some principles that Wang Sheng had heard before, and it seemed very interesting.

After Wang Sheng carefully pondered for a while, Master Lu had finished eating and drinking over there, and then looked up and smiled at Wang Sheng and asked: "Boy, how much did you understand, tell me?"

"I understand a little bit." Wang Sheng was not modest, this was a great grandmaster guiding him, this kind of opportunity was rare, how could he miss it casually? Even if he understood it wrong, he had to ask for advice, so as not to miss it and regret it.

"Simply put, there are probably these concepts, please give me some guidance and see if I'm right." Wang Sheng asked very humbly.

"Tell me." Master Lu became interested and asked seriously.

"Seeing mountains as mountains, seeing water as water. Then seeing mountains not as mountains, seeing water not as water." Wang Sheng said these words while combining his own understanding and his own memory: "Finally, seeing mountains as mountains, seeing water as water."

As soon as these words came out, Master Lu's aura immediately changed.
