Chapter 169 : The jade carving teacher was shocked.

Under the pressure of education, students must take responsibility for completing their homework. For Xu Qing, this is not only a task, but also a respect for teachers. He clearly remembered Elder Xue's image. Taking advantage of his fresh memory, he grabbed the statue on the ground and rushed upstairs. Upstairs, he takes a piece from a pile of decomposed jade and prepares to begin his carving journey.

Xu Qing took a deep breath and allowed the image in his heart to perfectly fuse with the jade. He pulled out the Dragon Abyss Short Sword and quickly removed the excess materials. In just a moment, a miniature version of a character appeared on the stone. He closed his eyes and quickly rotated the carving knife in his hand, accurately outlining Elder Xue's appearance. All kinds of carving knives were switched flexibly in his hands, and white stone fragments fell one after another. In just an hour, the general appearance of the character was completed.

However, the details and expressions are the real challenge. But this is not a problem for Xu Qing. The last image in his mind was Old Xue's angry appearance. He copied it perfectly on the statue.

After three hours of careful carving, a lifelike statue was finally completed. He gently wiped the powder off the surface, showered, and carried his work downstairs.

He went to Old Xue's door and pressed the doorbell. Xue Guoqiang came over to open the door. He smiled and said to Xu Qing," You came at the right time. The old man is in a bad mood today. He hasn't even eaten dinner yet. You can talk to him when you go in."

Xu Qing nodded with a smile and walked into the house with the jade carving in his arms. He didn't know that this jade statue was the reason why Elder Xue was unhappy.

Old Xue had a lot of experience in jade carving all his life. He knew that it took a long time to complete a bust. However, this young man actually told him that it only took one night. This was a great challenge to Old Xue's experience and also a challenge to his authority. He had high expectations for Xu Qing. After hearing that he had carved a unique bust in less than ten hours, he was so angry that he could not even eat.

Old Xue sat down on the sofa with a dark face as he walked into the room. Xu Qing looked at him and then at the statue in his hand. The two were indeed very similar.

"Teacher," he said with a smile,"your bust is finished. See if you are satisfied." He placed the statue in front of Xue Lao. A subtle expression flashed across Elder Xue's face. He springs up from the sand like a spring, snatches the statue quickly, and examines it closely. In an instant, his body seemed to have been frozen, standing rooted to the spot. That open mouth, as if frozen in the eternal two minutes, he only muttered: "Mirror, quick, bring a mirror over..."

Xue Guoqiang was confused by this sudden situation. He heard Old Xue shout hurriedly," Mirror, you brat, quickly bring a mirror over." He immediately walked into the room, took out a one-foot-square mirror, and walked quickly to Elder Xue.

Old Xue took the mirror and carefully placed it on the sand, standing upright. Holding the jade statue tightly in his arms, he rushed to the mirror like an arrow and began to carefully observe the statue in the mirror. This action lasted for five minutes, and finally he laughed loudly, holding the jade carving in his hand, ecstatic.

" Good. As expected of Xue Hongyun's disciple. How did you do it?" The stone powder on the surface of the statue had not been wiped clean, and there were no traces of rubbing on the cut surface. Old Xue was now completely certain that this bust had been carved in just a few hours. This skill could only be described as miraculous. He grabbed Xu Qing's shoulder excitedly, his voice trembling.

Xu Qing scratched his head and smiled,"Actually, this is not difficult." Your angry look is a little special. I don't know why you have an eidetic memory. It's very easy to carve."

Xue Lao looked at Xu Qing with surprise and asked anxiously,"Don't you have a drawing design?" No, even if it's an embryo, it can't be so fast. Why?"

Xu Qing instantly understood Elder Xue's doubts. In carving ordinary jade, it is necessary to design the general shape first, and then remove the excess jade material, which usually takes several hours. Even if it is carved, it still needs to be polished and polished. It takes a lot of time and effort to complete a real jade carving. Therefore, Old Xue was confused about this.

"Teacher, I really didn't do any drawing design. The reason why the embryo can be completed quickly is due to a short sword I bought from the antique street. It's much faster to make an embryo with it than with a carving knife." Under Elder Xue's solemn and passionate anticipation, Xu Qing told him everything except the ability of his eyes. Of course, that included the legendary Dragon Abyss Short Sword. When Old Xue heard about the short sword, his eyes flashed with excitement. He urged anxiously,"Do you have the short sword with you now?" Take it out and let me have a closer look."

At this time, Xue Guoqiang quietly winked at Xu Qing behind Old Xue and made a gesture of eating. The hint was obvious. The venerable old man had not yet eaten. Xu Qing understood. He shook his head and replied," Teacher, please enjoy your food first. I'll go home and get the dagger immediately. Then, I'll bring you endless surprises."

The old man nodded with satisfaction and said leisurely,"Okay, let's go eat first." After you retrieve the dagger, we'll have a good drink." He was indeed very pleased to have Xu Qing as his disciple who respected his teacher.

Xu Qing responded and immediately jogged out. He returned home and quickly took out his dagger, then hurried back to Xue's house. He didn't even change his shoes before walking to the dining table. He gently placed the Dragon Abyss Short Sword on the table and casually picked up a piece of slippery pork liver from the dish bowl to chew. "Teacher, this sword is very sharp. You have to be careful," he reminded.

Old Xue smiled confidently. He had been playing with knives for most of his life, so he still had confidence. He reached out and pulled out the Dragon Abyss Short Sword. He immediately felt a chill. The blade was as clear as autumn water. He flicked the spine of the sword lightly, and the clear dragon roar echoed in the dining room.

Elder Xue's expression became serious. He took out a strip of jade from under his seat. With a wave of the dagger, the jade was easily cut off. The incision was mirror-smooth and amazing. With a thud, half of the jade fell to the ground. Old Xue did not even feel any resistance. His face could no longer remain calm. Even Xue Guoqiang, who was accompanying him, frowned.

Xu Qing scooped up a bowl of rice and began to narrate his experience of obtaining the Dragon Abyss Short Sword. He spoke with ease, as if he were telling a distant story. In the process of this narration, not only did Old Xue listen attentively, even Xue Guoqiang could not help but be moved. In that quiet town, Xue Lao, a venerable craftsman, glided his rough fingers over the spine of his sword. There was a deep emotion in his eyes, and he sighed."Alas! With the Dragon Abyss in hand, why do you need Kunwu?" His voice was filled with confidence and enthusiasm, as if announcing how extraordinary this sword was.

Xue Guoqiang, Elder Xue's nephew, heard the word " Dragon Abyss " and his expression changed slightly. He knew the legendary history of Dragon Abyss. It was forged by Ou Yezi, the legendary divine sword. "If this dagger is genuine, it's a priceless national treasure." There was awe and wonder in his voice.

Elder Xue immediately glared at him. His tone carried a hint of reproach." What national treasure? My disciple bought this with real money. From now on, this short sword will be his tool for cutting objects." His tone was firm and determined." With its help, I will definitely be able to complete the most proud work of my life." His eyes sparkled with fervent conviction.

Xu Qing, Elder Xue's disciple, tasted the braised pork ribs and said vaguely," You can use it first if you need it. But let me make it clear first. In the future, you won't be able to hand in your homework so quickly." There was a touch of mischief and humor in his tone, which added some lightness to the solemn atmosphere. novelbuddy.c om

In this warm town, the conversation between them seemed to be a poem, full of emotion and life. And that mysterious dagger, Long Yuan, will also play an important role in their lives, witnessing a touching story.
