Chapter 148 Mind the Heart

Counting the days, it has only been about a week since the final final of the Jade Sculpture Competition. For several days in a row, Chen Ran has been practicing the eight-knife knife method day and night.

In addition to buying daily necessities, Chen Ran keeps practicing every day without leaving home, but he still hasn't broken through the bottleneck of the eight-blade method.

However, although he did not break through the bottleneck, his knife skills have been able to enter the room. I don't know how much he improved compared with the eight-knife method before he got. At this moment, if he talks about knife skills, he absolutely exceeds the level of most first-class jade sculptors, even better than many people than second-class jade sculptors.

Of course, in the world of jade carving masters, there are many hidden masters hidden by the people. At this moment, Chen Ran can only be regarded as a small achievement, which is much worse than the master.

Even Lu Tianming's people are much better than Chen Ran. After all, Chen Ran's time to get the eight-knife method is too short. If he is given some time, he may be able to surpass them.

Although he has practiced for so long and has not broken through the bottleneck, Chen Ran is not discouraged and still insists on practicing every day.

For the one-knife method before the eight-knife method, Chen Ran has already practiced it, and the control of the knife method has reached an unimaginable level. Whether it is with his eyes open or with his eyes closed, he can carve any place. If it is deeper, it will be deeper, and if it is shallower. Absolutely not bad.

When Chen Ran practiced, he still practiced with marble. Only when he found the feeling, he carved with jade. Even so, his room was full of large and small jade, and the cost of materials alone consumed no less than 100,000.

In the room, after practicing with marble for a day, Chen Ran began to try jade carving again.

Chen Ran stared intently at a piece of Dushan jade material in front of him and exhaled all the air in his chest. The next moment, he had moved!

However, the shadow flashed, and Chen Ran had returned to his original position.

However, there is still only one trace left on the jade. Although this trace serves as a finishing touch, it is obvious that this is not what Chen Ran wants.

Work harder!

Chen Ran clenched his fist and told himself in his heart.

It's just a pity, but I failed again!

The third failure!

The fourth time is still a failure!

......

The sweat on Chen Ran's eyebrows kept flowing down like broken pearls, making his clothes wet. Although he failed one after another, Chen Ran did not stop and was still moving. He still didn't believe in this evil. He only needed this step to succeed. Is this step so difficult for him?

One day later.

Chen Ran's face was full of fatigue, and his eyes were full of blood.

He squatted on the ground and looked at the pile of failed jade in front of him. Chen Ran was a little stunned.

What's wrong?

Is there an error in which link?

Chen Ran frowned and pulled his messy hair fiercely with his right hand. After thinking painfully for a long time, Chen Ran did not figure out why. Instead, he squatted on the ground and fell asleep against the wall. He slept deeply. For so many days, he had hardly slept well. At this moment, he was really too tired.

Not long after Chen Ran fell asleep, his door was knocked, and standing outside the door and knocking on the door was a policewoman landlord.

The policewoman landlord is still wearing a criminal police uniform, standing at the door with a black bag in her hand, and in the living room behind her, there is a large box with a pull rod, which seems to be about to go far away.

After knocking for a long time and no one responded, the policewoman landlord pushed the door directly and came in with a pretty face. After looking for a long time, she found Chen Ran, who was sleeping in the corner and couldn't help frown.

When she looked at Chen Ran sitting on the ground and fell asleep, she turned around and was about to leave. She just stepped out of the room, but turned around again.

Gently put the burden by the door. She frowned and walked to Chen Ran, lowered her head, bit her lips, and stared at Chen Ran.

There was a hum in her nose, and she stretched out her foot and gently kicked Chen Ran, but Chen Ran did not respond.

He kicked hard, but Chen Ran still didn't respond.

Kicked hard again, but Chen Ran still didn't respond.

"What a dead pig!"

The policewoman landlord muttered angrily before she squatted down and hugged Chen Ran to **.

"It's better to sleep!"

After covering Chen Ran with a quilt, the policewoman landlord stared at Chen Ran's sleeping face, gritted her teeth and muttered. Finally, she stretched out her hands and danced to Chen Ran's neck, as if to strangle Chen Ran in her sleep.

It's just that she soon felt that it was too cheap to let Chen Ran die in his sleep like this. Let's change the method.

Chen Ran woke up lying in **, which made him a little strange, but he didn't think much about it. After all, his brain was a little unconscious at that time, and it was not impossible to climb to ** before going to bed.

got out of bed, opened the window, took a deep breath, and Chen Ran immediately woke up with a little chilly air.

Looking back at the pile of jade, Chen Ran sighed. Although there are only two days left from the jade carving competition, and there is still no breakthrough in the eight-knife split wave knife method, it has reached this point. Anyway, let's take a break first.

If it goes on like this, even if he can hold on, his body will collapse.

When it comes to health, Chen Ran suddenly thought of Master Miao. Since he returned to Zhongdu, he has not been to Master Miao once. Up to now, he has not figured out the reason why Master Miao treats himself so special.

Although he can't figure it out, Chen Ran feels that Master Miao should not harm himself. He knows very well that during this period of practicing the eight-knife split wave knife method, if there was no soup that Master Miao asked him to drink, his body would have collapsed long ago. Every time he drank the soup taken by Master Miao, he could feel that his body was strong. Less.

At this point, when practicing the eight-blade split wave knife method, I felt it most deeply.

Since the eight-knife division knife method still can't be broken through, Chen Ran decided to go out. After all, he may have to go to Huadu tomorrow, and some things that should be dealt with in Zhongdu should also be dealt with.

If you go out for a walk, you may find inspiration.

Chen Ran looked through the box and cupboard for a long time before finding his mobile phone. In the past few days, his mobile phone has been turned off. I turned on my mobile phone and received a series of text messages.

Most of the text messages are prompts to receive phone calls. Chen Ran checked. These calls were made by Uncle Huang, Ning Wei, Guo Hai and Yang Long, Bai Lao and Wang Zhiqing, and a strange number.

In addition to receiving prompts for phone calls, there are five messages, three of which are sent by Chen Xiaowen and Chen Xiaomei, and the fourth is a scammer message, that is, the kind of sending a bank account to transfer money.

This kind of information is not fresh at all. Chen Ran deleted it directly, and the last one was sent by a strange account.

"Lang Yalang, after parting, hundreds of thoughts, thousands of thoughts, all kinds of helplessness, finally left, only looking forward to getting together again a year. Aran, give me a year. A year later, I will throw everything away, come back to you, wait for me, wait for me..."

This message was sent by a strange account. Chen Ran scanned the beginning and end, thinking that it was the blessing text message, so he directly deleted it.

He didn't notice the name in the text message.

It's his negligence, but it has changed a lot.

After reading the text message, Chen Ran immediately called Guo Hai and Yang Long respectively. Guo Hai had nothing to do, but said that he would drive to Zhongdu first and arrive in Zhongdu, and then Chen Ran went to Huadu together.

Yang Long had nothing to do. He just asked Chen Ran if he had come back and was ready to fight the local tycoon. Chen Ran told him that he had been back for a few days, which immediately provoked him to complain.

When he heard Chen Ran say that he would leave tomorrow, he immediately said that he would come in the evening, and when he learned that Chen Ran was going to participate in the Jade Sculpture Competition in Huadu tomorrow, he also became interested and said that if he had time tomorrow, he would also go with Chen Ran.

Hanging up Yang Long's phone, Chen Ran was going to call Bai Lao, but after thinking about it, he decided to go directly to Bai Lao's store to have a look.

Stepping into the Beihuan Antique City again, Chen Ran's mood was a little different. Chen Ran walked and observed that he not only observed the antiques on the stall, but also the people coming and going.

In the past, Chen Ran would not pay attention to pedestrians, but now he has paid attention to it. While thinking about it, it is naturally the hearts of the people.

I didn't find anything good, and Chen Ran was not disappointed.

I didn't see Bai Lao in Bai Lao's ceramic shop. Chen Ran came to Bai Lao's tea shop.

"Xiaoran, where have you been these days? It's not easy to see you."

Bai Lao was originally in the box. When he heard that Chen Ran came over, he immediately ran out of the box. When he saw Chen Ran, he laughed cheerfully, but he complained for a long time.

Chen Ran can only make amends with a wry smile.

Bai Lao complained about Chen Ran for a while before enthusiastically pulling Chen Ran into the box.

The guests in the tea shop couldn't help but be surprised and asked who the young man was. After all, Mr. Bai still has a high status in the antique city, but he treats such a young man so enthusiastically.

After learning Chen Ran's identity, he suddenly realized one by one, which also caused Chen Ran to be surrounded when he left the white old box.

At noon, Chen Ran had lunch with Mr. Bai. Before leaving, Mr. Bai confessed to Chen Ran, giving Chen Ran time to go to his house to see the good things he collected.

Chen Ran agreed.

Back to the apartment, he took out the key, opened the door and walked in. Chen Ran frowned.

[Depressed, I'm really sorry. I set up an automatic update. Just now, I suddenly saw that my mobile phone had not been updated on the Internet, so I quickly went to the Internet cafe to update it.]
