Chapter 48: The Old Story of Sanlitun-The Northern School Tomb Raider’s Notes

Zou Xiaotong originally did not intend to participate in the first Tiangong Competition, then only two weeks and a few days from the opening of the competition, Zou masters grip hair grips baldness skin, he slept three hours a day, the rest of the time to eat can not care about eating, ten days thin ten pounds, people emaciated very strong.

He said that there was a moment of inspiration, can not be blocked, fell asleep in the middle of the night also have to get up to make up two in the back to sleep.

Nowadays, master carvers do a piece of work as short as a few months long as a few years, while Zou Xiaotong only used thirteen days.

I don’t know what the head was busy with in those days, never contacted us, I and Xiao Xuan doudoune moncler pas cher stayed at the Double Dragon Hotel in Huawei Bridge to wait for news, and will go to Sanlitun to play at night.

We were grave robbers, but we were also young men, and Sanlitun was really fun in those days.

Now go to Sanlitun bouncing bar are for physical release, accompanied by the music of the move times to beat times, a small drink a small waist a hug, and began to release.

In those days, Sanlitun was home to countless talented men and women.

Jazz house, the north gate of the Workers’ Complex Axiomatic Western Restaurant, havan, hidden cool, the old Chinese characters, red rose, South Street store rainbow wine house, Mingda, Mustard Square. These small stores we have gone around, bean sprout boy bumpkin into the city, Liu Lou Lou into the Grand View Garden, jazz house to see the people beautiful girl playing the guitar are looking silly, I have always felt that the bean sprout boy is very talented in art, grave robbers can also occasionally literary model.

South Street store Rainbow Tavern, the store owner surnamed White, thirty-something with glasses, a few days after the white boss and a few of us became friends with the young, Rainbow Tavern at the time of the cheapest price of drinks and snacks, others have increased the price of the white boss of the Rainbow Tavern does not increase the price of the results of four years after the closure of the Rainbow House.

Boss White plays a good guitar, at that time Bean Sprout Boy was wearing sunglasses and holding a microphone in his hand, he sang a single love brother in front of so many people, don’t get me wrong, when I say he has talent it’s not singing talent, it’s hilarious talent, Lin Zhi Xuan might want to beat him up if he hears Bean Sprout Boy singing a single love song.

Xiao Xuan also sings, she can sing some Cantonese songs, not very good, but better than the pentatonic bean sprout boy.

In my case, I would never dare to go up and sing with a microphone in the presence of an outsider.

Played for many days in a row, that day I received a notice from Master Zou, said our blood agate carved, let us go over to see.

Zou Xiaotong has a private studio in Tianzhu, Shunyi, Beijing, where he has a small one-room villa, and he also has a warehouse in Cuigezhuang, which is used to store some tools and unused jade waste.

“Master Zou are you not sleeping for a few days?” When we met in Shunyi I saw that he had severe dark circles under his eyes.

“Enough of that,” he couldn’t hide the excitement on his face, “come on in and take a look, I promise you’ll be satisfied with what you see!”

“Wait, I’ll bring it right over.”

A few minutes later he came down from the second floor holding a wooden box.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the title of the work is Flaming Mountain.” He opened the wooden box as he spoke.

Initially the original stone is oval, he boldly under the knife to material, the oval polished into a class of triangular, jade carving back intentionally retained five Alashan onyx native black skin, jade carving the front of the knife with a positive knife and reverse knife, skeletonization carving through the carving technique made a mountain, agate in the middle of the piece of the demon red he did not move the knife, the area only made fine polishing, polishing the effect of the plains like a piece of the area.

From a distance, the body reddens like a flame over the mountain.

One word, “Absolutely!”

Not bad for master craftsmanship.

Zou Xiaotong pulled out a flashlight and said with a smile, “You guys don’t think this is the end, do you?”

With a grin on his face, he turned on his flashlight and slowly shone it up the onyx hill.

“This …. This this this,” Bean Sprout Boy was incoherent, looking dumbfounded.

At this moment, only to see on the area left in the middle of the agate, in the flashlight light surprisingly appeared four people and a horse!

It turned out that he left the back of the black skin to do coquettish sculpture, the master and disciple of the West to fetch scriptures do the back of the master and disciple of the four, do not hit the lights to see is the red flaming mountain, a hit of the lights became the Journey to the West of the master and disciple of the four over the flaming mountain, the technique requires extremely high dislocation of spatial sense and sense of art.

It’s a piece that anyone who has seen it can’t help but utter one word, “Bull.”

“Master Zou is awesome awesome.” We watched for more than half an hour, heartfelt admiration, the three thousand dollars spent is so worth it.

He rubbed his hands together, “How are you guys thinking about that thing I said?”
