Chapter 8: Wood Carving Prodigy, Inner Strength Divinity
Third Shopkeeper Xu You narrowed his eyes, a hint of amazement flashing through his gentle gaze.
He looked at the rough prototype of the "Four-Armed Bodhisattva holding child statue" that was being outlined. Although it was only a prototype and the lines were rough, the whole statue already emanated a unique form of beauty.
That was… the flavor of meaning!
The expression, the posture, the demeanor… they were all strikingly palpable!
It was as if there truly was a compassionate Four-Armed Bodhisattva, cradling a child with one arm, eyelids drooping, one hand forming the rebirth mantra, another holding the Pure Jade Vase, and yet another grasping a Jade Ruyi...
Was this really carved by a laborer?
Xu You nodded slightly. As the third shopkeeper of the wood carving shop, he had handled countless wood carvings and had a high level of appreciation for the styles and techniques of many veteran carvers.
In Li Che's Four-Armed Bodhisattva, there were many carving techniques imbuing Chen Dabao's style and flavor!
The talent… was astonishing!
