Weird things are rampant: I enthroned gods in another world
Chapter 15
Get! Close!
Zhang Xuan didn't expect to invite out twenty-six land god statues at one time.
After all, the image of the land lord and the land lady is a pair of old men and old ladies who look very kind, with kind eyebrows and good intentions, and they don't look like they can deter strange demons.
Therefore, although Zhang Xuan basically made land god statues in the past two days, compared to other god statues, there were very few people who went out. Today this is a one-time empty!
Looking at the few other statues of gods left on the counter, I have to add some statues.
Then, think about it, there are two clay statues and five wood statues that need to be customized in these two days. Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan has a bit of a headache, this workload is a bit big.
After a moment of silence, Zhang Xuan felt that he had to add a few land gods first.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan prepared and mud, and first replenished the clay statue.
To say, clay statues are actually faster to make than wood carvings, after all, they do not need to be as fine as wood statues. Moreover, the effort required to carve wood and soil with a knife is completely incomparable. This is also why in the market, you can see the clay people on the spot, but you can basically not see the wood carvings carved for you on the spot.
Speaking of the market, Zhang Xuan suddenly thought that tomorrow's fifth day of the first year would happen to be the market in Wangjia Town.
Wangjiazhen has a market every fifth and twentieth of the first month of the month. During the market, people from the surrounding satellite villages will come to Wangjia Town to catch the market, which is very lively. Even in other towns and counties, people will come.
While thinking about it, Zhang Xuan's subordinates did not stop. After a while, the plaster has been reconciled.
With the formation of a clay statue of the land god, a warm current appeared, and Zhang Xuan had gradually become obsessed with this feeling.
In less than an hour, the five pairs of land gods were completed. Obviously, the speed is much faster now than the previous two days.
After finishing these ten land god statues, Zhang Xuan took a closer look and found that his current skills had obviously improved a lot, and the god statues he was making now were obviously more vivid.
To place the statue on a strip in the courtyard, it takes more than four hours to be exposed to the sun.
The five custom-made statues of gods over there in the stone shop are not in a hurry, and there is plenty of time; But the two great statues of the gods in Liujia Village are very urgent.
Zhang Xuan calculated that he would have to start today.
The three-foot-six-inch statue is only worth dozens of pounds. To make two statues, Zhang Xuan estimated that if you use ointment alone, the amount will be hundreds of catties, but to make such a large statue, you don't need to use all of it.
First, the cost of plaster alone is very high; Second, such a large statue, the use of paste alone is not strong, easy to crack, unless simply fired into ceramics, and the production of ceramic statues must be fired with jujube wood or peach wood fire, that cost is higher.
It is very cost-effective to mix a certain amount of sand and ordinary soil with a little wheat bran or rice bran, which is more sticky, makes large statues of gods cheap, and is also durable.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan was ready to look at the amount of various materials, there was no sand at home, but remembered that there should be sand leftover in the paper shop next to it, and some time ago, Uncle Liu of the paper shop just started a new stove, and scooped up a lot of sand from the river outside the city.
The amount left in the anointing house should be enough, about a hundred and ten catties left, this time only forty or fifty catties are used, which is enough.
If you have dirt, you can dig a little directly from the yard, but you need to treat the soil to some extent.
All that's left is to see if there's any bran or rice bran. Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan got up and came to the kitchen, opened the innermost crockpot next to the stove, looked in, and found that there was still about half a jar, which was about enough.
In this way, then there is sand left! Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan walked out of the Spirit Sculpture House and came to the paper shop next to it.
At this time, the paper shop was very deserted, and the counter was full of all kinds of paper products, including paper money, ingots, wreaths, and paper people and paper horses, which were very complete.
A little girl was sitting in a chair behind the counter, leisurely shaking her legs.
Liu Han'er suddenly felt dark in front of her eyes, and raised her head to see: "Wow, brother, why are you here!" When
Liu Han'er saw Zhang Xuan, she jumped off the chair happily, ran over, and came to her.
Zhang Xuan subconsciously bent down and stretched out his arms to take the little girl who pounced into his arms.
When Zhang Xuan reacted, the little girl Liu Han'er was already hugging Zhang Xuan's neck and giggling!
While the two were laughing, a black-faced man walked in.
A big man, looking more than one meter nine meters in size, with a big waist and a round waist, a face full of beards, a leopard head and eyes, and a set of coarse linen clothes on his body, he can't hide a heroic spirit.
This big man is Liu Meng, the owner of the paper shop, and as his name suggests, it is really fierce.
Liu Meng really has a good martial art, and it is said that his martial art is second only to several ancestors of the town mayor's family.
However, Zhang Xuan did not find Liu Meng's memory of practicing martial arts from the memory of the original owner, remembering that the original owner once asked Liu Meng whether he could do martial arts, and Liu Meng's answer at that time was that he would know a little crop handle, not martial arts.
Zhang Xuan is about one meter and seven or five meters tall, which is already very tall in this world, but standing next to Liu Meng, he was immediately compared and was more than a head shorter.
"Xiao Xuan, you're coming! Han'er, come down quickly, what a person, still so tired of your brother! Liu Meng first greeted Zhang Xuan, and then said to Liu Han'er, the sound of the urn was angry, Zhang Xuan felt that it seemed that the paper people and paper horses in the store were vibrating with the sound.
But obviously, Zhang Xuan has already adapted, if a person who has never met before, listening to Liu Meng for the first time, it is estimated that he will be frightened.
What's more interesting is that the statue of the god placed in the paper shop is the shape of Liu Meng himself, or it was carved by Zhang Xuan's father.
The statues of gods in Liu Meng's paper shop have always been carved in Liu Meng's own image. According to his own words, I am so powerful, naturally it is best to use my own image!
Zhang Xuan lowered the reluctant Liu Han'er to the ground and shouted, "Uncle Meng!
"Well, Xiaoxuan, you first find a place to sit down and have dinner here in a while." Originally, I was going to call you at dinner. Your aunt just cut some meat today and is preparing to stew the broth. Liu Meng put down a paper horse that he had just made.
Who would have thought that such a powerful man would do such a thing as a paper man and a paper horse. Anyway, Zhang Xuan always felt a sense of discord.
"Okay, Uncle Meng. There is still something to do in the store, and I will come back when I eat. Zhang Xuan is not polite, with the relationship between the two families, they often serve anything delicious, or even eat it directly.
"That's it! If you have something to do, just remember to come over and eat. Liu Meng nodded directly.
"What's the matter with you coming here now?"
"Uncle Meng, are there still sand left on your stove last time?"
"Sand? Yes, there are quite a few left, how, useful?
"Great, Uncle Meng, recently received two custom-made statues of the Great God, and I need some sand."
"Custom statue?"
"Yes, Uncle Meng, it was decided over there in Liujia Village! It is said that the ancestral hall and the ancestral land need to replace the two great god statues!
"Oh, Liujia Village! I heard that at the end of last year, during the New Year, the ghosts attacked and many people died! However, it doesn't work if they just change gods! Liu Meng was a little puzzled.
"Well, they said that they invited an old Xiucai who had just died to settle in the ancestral hall and prepare to hold a big festival!" Zhang Xuan explained.
"That's it, it's really lucky!" Liu Meng suddenly realized.
"The sand is in the backyard, Han'er, take your brother over to see it." Liu turned his head sharply to Liu Han'er who was sitting in the chair.
"You go and see if it's enough, Xiaoxuan, if it's not enough, Uncle Meng will go outside the city tomorrow to fish for some."
Liu Han'er watched the two just talk, completely ignoring her, and was sulking. Listening to her father call her, she glanced at Liu Meng, "Hmph..." jumped off the chair and grabbed one of Zhang Xuan's hands, and led it to the backyard, "Brother, let's go to the backyard to play."
While following Liu Han'er to the backyard, Zhang Xuan turned back to Liu Meng and said, "Okay, Uncle Meng, I'll go over and take a look first, it doesn't take much, it should be enough." If it's not enough, let's talk about it.
Liu Meng watched the two walk into the backyard, smiled, turned his head and continued the paper-making work at hand.
Zhang Xuan didn't expect to invite out twenty-six land god statues at one time.
