C44 Grandmaster of Stone Carving

44th chapter - Grandmaster of Stone Carving

In the hotel room.

In front of the four of them, there was a cup of tea. The head of the Mahia Museum smiled and said, "That boy, Austoni, saw Lin Feng's work and told me that this work is comparable to the 'Top Ten Stone Carvings'. Haha, doesn't that mean that he has a seventeen-year-old Grandmaster of Stone Carving?"

Grandmaster represented a status, and represented that this art had reached the peak.

And normal people would call him a master. For example, Master Proulx.

"Grandmaster of Stone Carving?" Ye Lu was a little surprised, "I don't know if Lin Feng's stone carving works are that powerful. After all, my eyes are not high enough. But I dare to say that Lin Feng's stone carving works are at least comparable to the work in your exhibition hall."

"Oh." The head of the Mahia Museum smiled, "Alright, after saying so much, it's still better to meet him. I wonder where that stone carving work is. Can you let me see it?"

"Of course." Ye Lu said with a smile.

"Little Ye Lu, even if this stone carving work can't reach the level of the Top Ten Stone Carvings, it shouldn't be that far off. How are your protective measures? Don't let anyone steal it." The head of the Mahia Museum reminded him.

Ye Lu said confidently, "Don't worry, Mahia, I have placed that stone carving in the secret room of the Wude Inn. Moreover, there are experts from the Dawson Conglomerate protecting it. Moreover, there are very few people who know about this stone carving."

"You transferred to the hotel?" Osteon was surprised. The last time he saw Ye Lu was in the dormitory.

Ye Lu curled his lips and said, "I believe in my good brothers, but I don't believe in you."

Osteon could not help but laugh bitterly.

"Miabel, let's go. I'll take you there," Ye Lu said enthusiastically.

Wade Hotel was actually a business under the Dyson Chamber of Commerce. This was also why the executives of Wade Hotel knew Ye Lu's identity.

In an independent room of Wade Hotel, the room was very spacious, and there were beds inside. Three experts had been guarding this place for the past few days.

"Young Master Ye Lu," the three Level-7 warriors stood up and said respectfully.

Ye Lu smiled and nodded. "Miabel, you can look at it." As he spoke, Ye Lu lifted the thick cloth on the stone sculpture, revealing such a large stone sculpture. The five beautiful stone sculptures were exquisite and beautiful, and they had the appearance of people who could arouse people's love. They were cute and pure, and they had reserved and shy appearances. They were also passionate and touching, but they also had the appearance of people who were reluctant to part.

It was as if they were real people.

Looking at the five human-shaped stone sculptures, the mouth of the head of the museum, David, was wide open as he looked at them in shock for a long time.

After a long time.

"Amazing, amazing." The head of the museum, David, finally woke up. "This work is at least a masterpiece. To be able to carve five stone sculptures that look like real people, how much effort has it taken? Just the time it took to carve them would probably take a year and a half."

The head of the museum knew very well that carving was a very taxing process.

Especially when it came to carving a stone sculpture. There were even cases of stone carving masters fainting while they were carving. In history, there were even people who died midway through the process. This work was completely made with blood and sweat.

"To be able to reach this level at the age of seventeen, this is truly…" The head of the museum did not know what to say. He excitedly walked in front of the stone sculpture and looked at it carefully, "Can this stone sculpture be compared to the ten great stone sculptures? I still need to observe it carefully from all angles."

As he spoke, the head of the museum seemed to be sticking close to the stone sculpture as he carefully looked at the lines of marks.

The head of the museum silently observed every part of the stone sculpture, as if he was possessed.

"Boss Ye Lu, it's been two hours." Lei Nuo took out his pocket watch from his pocket and said.

Ye Lu shook his head and said softly, "Don't be anxious. Let me take a closer look. Since the head of the museum is the head of the Proulx Gallery, he must be the descendant of the Proulx Master. I believe that his appraisal skills are definitely very high. I wonder what level this work of the third brother has reached."

Lei Nuo also nodded slightly.

After three hours, the head of the museum straightened his back and let out a long sigh of relief.

"I heard that this stone sculpture is called 'love'?" The head of the museum asked.

Ye Lu nodded and said, "Yes, the third brother named it himself."

Headmaster Miaoya nodded lightly, and then looked at the sculpture ‘Love' in admiration, "I have to say, your brother Lin Feng is definitely a genius in the world of stone sculptures. He can be said to be a genius comparable to Master Proulx."

"Although his work is a little different from Master Proulx's, in terms of the strokes and carvings, he is definitely on par with Master Proulx." Headmaster Miaoya exclaimed.

"Carving?" Ye Lu asked doubtfully.

Headmaster Miaoya nodded and said, "Yes, but this work has some flaws, but it also has some amazing merits."

"Flaws are that some of the curves and soft lines are slightly lacking. But your brother Lin Feng's work is very consistent overall. That kind of visual effect is definitely comparable to Master Proulx's few works. Most importantly, this work is very large."

Headmaster Miaoya sighed, "A work that has been passed down for generations, every part of it requires a great deal of effort. One careless mistake could cause the entire work to fail. It is very rare to be able to carve a human-shaped stone sculpture. Lin Feng has carved five of them. The most admirable thing is that the five souls are connected. If my guess is correct, your brother Lin Feng must have experienced a fierce love."

With the eyes of the Head of the Miao Ya Museum, he naturally knew what these five stone sculptures meant.

"‘Love’, to be able to carve such a work, it really makes people gasp in admiration." The Head of the Miao Ya Museum could not help but praise it a few times.

"Head of the Miao Ya Museum, what level do you think my brother Lin Feng's work is? Can it be comparable to the work of the Master of the Proulx?" Lei Nuo asked.

The Head of the Miao Ya Museum frowned. "Actually, I am also a little unsure. Let me tell you this, the level of this work can only be considered as the level of an expert. However, in terms of continuity, it is comparable to the Master of the Proulx. However, there is one thing that is the most special —"

"The carving of this work is very straightforward and neat. From the beginning to the end, the five stone sculptures can be said to be a perfect whole. That kind of carving style is unique. I have never seen it before, nor have I seen it before," the Head of the Miao Ya Museum praised.

Ye Lu also asked anxiously, "Miao Ya, what level is this work?"

The Head of the Miao Ya Museum said helplessly, "I am also unable to confirm. From the traditional evaluation method, this work should be considered a masterpiece. At least, that unique charm is undoubtedly there. His carving technique has already expressed that charm."

"Traditional evaluation method?" Ye Lu and Lei Nuo looked at the Head of the Miao Ya Museum in puzzlement.

The Head of the Miao Ya Museum nodded and said, "The traditional evaluation method is a common evaluation method that has been recognized by everyone for countless years. However, I feel that when Lin Feng's work is viewed, the entire work is very perfect. I don't feel like there is anything lacking."

"The existence of the stone carving was originally meant to be admired. The effect of admiring it determines everything. It can be said that Lin Feng may not be a master of stone carving, but the price of this work will be very high, enough to be comparable to the Ten Great Stone Carvings." The Head of the Museum smiled and said.

He was not a master of stone carving, but his stone carving work could enter the Ten Great Stone Carvings. This was indeed an unprecedented strange thing.

However, the Head of the Museum had to admit that this might happen.

"Oh." Ye Lu and Lei Nuo nodded.

In fact, this was one of the flaws of the Saber Style. After all, if one used a flat knife to carve some smooth curves, it would not be as good as some special tools. The effect of Lin Feng using the 'flat knife' might be comparable to that of an ordinary master of stone carving.

However, compared to a master of stone carving, his strokes were somewhat lacking.

However, the Saber Style also had its advantages. For example, in terms of 'continuousness', there were other people who would constantly change their tools, but the Saber Style carving required the 'earth-style Magician' to fuse with the heaven and earth and then carve. This kind of carving could improve one's mental strength.

"What about Lin Feng himself?" The Head of the Museum asked.

Ye Lu shook his head and said, "Third Brother is a Magician after all. Most of his time is spent on cultivating. He should still be cultivating in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. I don't know when he will come back."

"Then, Ye Lu, can you help Lin Feng to agree to let the Proulx Gallery sell this work?" The Head of the Mahia Gallery suggested.

"No." Ye Lu said bluntly, "I can't make a decision without the third's consent."

"Furthermore, this work completely expresses the unwavering love between him and Di Liya. It can be said to be the symbol of their love. I reckon that the third will definitely not sell it."

The head of the museum frowned and continued, "What about the exhibition? It shouldn't be a problem for us to show it in the Proulx Gallery. After all, all of Lin Feng's previous stone sculptures were sold in our Proulx Gallery."

Ye Lu was very clear about the significance of this work to Lin Feng.

It was hard to say whether Lin Feng would agree to show it, so he was unwilling to make things difficult for him.

"No, I am only responsible for keeping it. As for the exhibition, selling it, and so on, we will talk about it when the third comes back." Ye Lu said in a loud voice.
