When we returned to Qingfengguan, it was only around three in the afternoon.
Ning Fei borrowed a cutting machine and angle grinder from a farmer in the village and started processing the stones that were brought back.
He first cut the four sides of the stele into a standard rectangular parallelepiped, and then used an angle grinder to polish the surface of the stele.
After some operations, a rectangular flat monument was carved out.
The plaque still retains the unique charm of the rocks. When you get closer, you can feel the weight and vicissitudes of the mountains.
Stones bought in the market do not have this feeling.
"The material of this stone is the house stone among the Qinshan stones. It is just suitable for making a stone tablet."
"Most of the stones in Qinshan are granite, and there are many types, including patterned stone, house stone, white granite, thousand-layer stone, snow wave stone, landscape stone, etc."
"Many schools, government units, business units, etc. will also make a special trip to transport huge stones from places like Qinshan Mountains and Mount Tai, place them at the school entrance, and engrave them with the inscriptions of celebrities or the name of the school."
"Generally speaking, the price of a huge stone is not too expensive, but the freight may cost hundreds of thousands or even millions."
Ning Fei said as he finished polishing the entire stone tablet.
Then, he put down his tools, went to the house to find a wooden basin, poured a basin of water out, and carefully cleaned the surface of the stone tablet with a rag.
The entire stele was immediately cleaned extremely clean.
Next, comes the inscription.
"The inscription is a kind of culture and a unique cultural carrier."
"Generally speaking, inscriptions mainly record events. If you study the previous inscriptions in ancient times, you can also see the traces of the rise and fall of that era."
"Nowadays, almost all tourist attractions and shops with a history of more than a hundred years have several stone tablets recording them."
"But I don't intend to record it. My master said that the previous master of Qingfeng Temple was always free and easy. He only wanted to pursue nature and live up to his true nature throughout his life. He never had the idea of leaving a name for future generations."
Ning Fei got another pen and ink.
You need to write the words before carving, so that hand carving can be more accurate.
Nowadays, all carvings are basically done by machines, and craftsmen who engrave them are also very rare.
However, there are still old people like this in the mountains who can carve words on stones, which are square and square, and the price is not expensive. It costs 200 yuan to carve a few words. People often come to ask the old man to carve words in Qincheng and other towns.
After Ning Fei came back from the mountain, he put on a loose dark blue robe. This robe is a daily attire for home use and is very comfortable to wear.
In the live broadcast, a Taoist priest holds a brush, dips it in ink, then hangs his elbow in the air and writes on the stone tablet with the tip of the brush. This scene is full of tradition and ancient style.
"It's so beautiful!"
"I don't know why, but I feel very comfortable watching this kind of scene."
“I finally understand what it means for the people to report Yang Ning Guanzhu to promote culture.”
"Yes, I'm afraid this kind of scene can only be seen in ancient China."
"Guanzhu Ning is really powerful."
The drone flew closer and took a close-up of the inscription on the stone tablet. Netizens could also clearly see what Ning Fei wrote.
Ning Fei's calligraphy is very good, his brushstrokes are gentle and steady, and his writing power is steady and powerful.
His expression was very focused, and his eyes were full of sincerity, without meaning or impurities.
The puppy ran out again.
There is a threshold at the gate of Qingfeng Temple, which can be regarded as a kind of unconventional culture.
At this moment, the door of Qingfeng Temple was open, and the little dog was in Qingfeng Temple, resting his chin on the threshold and looking at Ning Fei with squinted eyes.
Little Falcon has been not far away from Ning Fei, staring at Ning Fei quietly.
What Ning Fei wrote on the stone tablet was his favorite passage in the Chang Qingjing Sutra.
Title: Meditation
"The human spirit desires to be pure, but the mind is disturbed; the human mind desires tranquility, but wants to lead it. If you can always satisfy your desires, the mind will be calm; if the mind is clear, the spirit will be pure, and the six desires will naturally not arise."
Netizens are not very interested in the content, but they can clearly see that the content written by Ning Fei is fluent throughout, and there is a sense of confusion between the strokes.
"Good words!"
“Words are like the person they are!”
"I feel that the handwriting is not accurate to the person. My handwriting is ugly, but I am really handsome."
"I agree. In this era, there are more typing on computers and less writing, so it is normal for the handwriting to be a little ugly."
"But Ning Guanzhu's handwriting is really good."
"I admire it. I have studied calligraphy for five years, and I feel that it is far incomparable to Ning Guanzhu. The words he wrote are not just beautiful in individual words, but the whole paragraph as a whole looks majestic. This is great calligraphy. Only family can do it.”
"This is the real master."
"Don't use the word 'master'. Now these two words have been turned into a derogatory term by those clowns."
"really."
Ning Fei added another sentence at the end of the article:
"Deep in this mountain, there is a Qingfeng Temple. Live in seclusion among the mountains and rivers, and don't ask about the affairs of the world."
At this point, the inscription on the entire stone tablet is completed.
Ning Fei placed the brush on the inkstone, stood up, and looked at the entire stone tablet from a distance.
I saw that on the stone tablet, a few lines of text were square and square, with symmetrical spacing between the left and right edges, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The structure was very balanced, giving it a simple beauty.
Ning Fei touched his chin, smiled with satisfaction, and then whispered to himself: "As expected of me."
When netizens heard this sentence, they agreed.
"Hahaha, as expected of me!"
"It's rare for Ning Guanzhu to boast. I feel like it's going to become a famous scene."
What Ning Fei didn't expect was that his simple self-mockery would trigger a different chemical reaction.
After a few people said this, more and more people joined the ranks.
The barrage was densely packed with the words "As expected of me".
This is the same as the famous meme of some anchors, such as League of Legends. If the man waits, the barrage will be 7777777.
There is also the well-known anchor Yinzi. Once he was live broadcasting a game to the finals. Netizens and he were very nervous. At this time, his daughter Yiyi came to disturb him. Yinzi said a famous slip of the tongue to his daughter:
"Dad, Yiyi is working."
So far, this sentence has become a golden saying among netizens.
Ning Fei didn't care much about this kind of thing, as long as the atmosphere in the live broadcast room was good.
Then, Ning Fei found many carving knives specially used for carving.
He has the skill "Carving Specialization", and carving is easy for him.
Then, Ning Fei said nothing more and began to use the carving knife to carve words on the stone tablet with concentration.
In the middle of the process, the puppy ran over, lay down not far away from him and looked at him for a while, then moved to the other side and lay down, as if he wanted Ning Fei to play with him.
Xiaohu also ran out and saw Ning Fei working hard, so he ran back again.
Xiaofei jumped over the threshold and came outside, and then he chased and played with the puppy heartlessly.
Little Falcon was still cold and domineering, silently accompanying Ning Fei.
Ning Fei focused his attention on the stone tablet and didn't pay much attention to the changes around him.
He used his hands hard and the carving knife left traces on the stone bit by bit.
This inscription has nearly a hundred words, and it would be a pity if even one word is not perfect, so Ning Fei cannot make any mistakes.
His live broadcast did not deliberately show anything, but the popularity remained high.
At this moment, several anchors from Tianjun Union were watching Ning Fei's live broadcast offline.
They couldn't help but scolded: "Nowadays netizens must be sick. Tell me what's the point of carving a piece of stone into stone? So many people are looking at him!"
"I guess I bought it with money. That guy is not simple, he knows how to do publicity!"
“Isn’t it better to catch fish and loaches than this?”
What they don't understand is that Ning Fei's live broadcast is better than reality.
What they call catching fish and loaches is to bury them underwater or in the mud a day in advance, wait for nature to smooth over the artificial traces, and then dig them out to deceive the audience.
Nowadays, more and more people have the ability to identify online.
Ning Fei concentrates on carving, and what netizens see is the folk craftsmanship of a craftsman.
Machine processing is much more convenient, but it is far from the feeling of manual carving.
"Finally finished!"
Carving is very physically demanding. After Ning Fei finished carving the last word, he wiped the sweat from his head, stood up and moved his body, only to realize that it was almost dark.
"So late?" Ning Fei said doubtfully.
"Woof woof woof!" The puppy barked twice, wanting Ning Fei to play with it.
Only then did Ning Fei see four little guys around him, all with bored faces and lying listlessly on the ground.
They have been with Ning Fei for a long time. Ning Fei was so focused on carving that he didn't even notice.
However, it feels good to have four little guys guarding you.
"Master Guan, it's time to eat."
Jiang Xue came to the door and called out.
"Okay, let's go, let's eat."
Ning Fei said to the fourth child, and then walked towards Qingfeng Temple.
The four children followed happily.
In the scene in the live broadcast room, netizens looked at the back of a man and four animals leaving, and felt that the relaxation and beauty in this world were just such a scene.
