Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

[My words made the forest elf angry. But in order to keep the conversation going, the forest elf restrained himself. 】

[The forest elf said to me: Stranger, although your question is rude, but to answer you, I don’t know if eating me will make you immune to all poisons, but you will definitely die! The forest elves here will skin him and remove his bones. 】

sweat……

This guy is scaring me!

Zhao Chuanxin wrote: "I gave the forest elf a friendly smile and said sincerely: I apologize for my rashness, I was just curious. But I still couldn't help but ask, the forest elf is invulnerable to all poisons, Apart from farming, is it nothing?"

[The forest elf looked at me with a face full of sincerity and curiosity! 】

Zhao Chuanxin: "..."

[The forest elf suppressed his roar through his teeth and said to me: The forest elf is a very excellent race. The entire Shadow Forest praises the forest elf. This is a good reputation accumulated over thousands of years. 】

Zhao Chuanxin finally knew that this forest elf was actually a talker. Perhaps since I have been here for a long time, except for the hard-working and taciturn tribesmen, I don’t have many opportunities to see other intelligent creatures.

He continued to write: "My face was full of admiration, and I said to the forest elves in a tone of admiration: What an amazing race! In other words, apart from farming, being immune to all poisons, and having fun, they have no other advantages. Already?"

[The forest elves are going crazy! It has never seen such a shameless person! 】

[The forest elf finally couldn't help but roared: How could it not have other advantages? We, the forest elves, are still the best artists in the entire Shadow Forest. Look over there, those lifelike sculptures are carved out of wood, there are nuts fallen in the jungle, and we can even carve the most exquisite patterns on thin leaves. 】

[I saw that there were indeed many sculptures and patterns in every corner of the shadow. There are forest elves, beautiful flowers, smart and cheerful deer, and moths flying on the lantern flowers. They are all the most beautiful images of things existing in the shadow forest. 】

Seeing this, Zhao Chuanxin had an idea.

He wrote: "This time, I showed a sincere expression of praise and said to the forest elves: I also like art, and I admire your talent. However, I do not recognize that you forest elves are the greatest artists in the Shadow Forest. This matter. Because you can only carve things that exist in the Shadow Forest, but you will not create things that do not exist here and are only based on imagination."

[The forest elf said to me unconvinced: Maybe I can't carve the kind of thing you mentioned, but can you? 】

This time, the diary automatically continued without waiting for Zhao Chuanxin's reaction.

[I have two choices. 】

[First, I felt inferior and walked away in despair. Reward: The forest elf gave me a lantern flower, which can light up my path. 】

[Second, carve out things that the forest elves have never seen before. Reward: The forest elf marveled at my skills and gave you an elf carving knife. 】

Sculpture?

This is Zhao Chuanxin's natural talent! Not to mention that the skill tree is full, but I have already practiced it long ago to be able to carve according to the shape. I can carve whatever I want and what I see!

Since the diary is written from "my" perspective, "I" can definitely use my skills.

He immediately wrote: "I choose two. I used nut skin to carve a round plaque with two Chinese characters for a six-pointed star and "elf" painted on it. The outer circle was decorated with bronze patterns. I also used a piece of wood to carve a car. A lifelike car with a golden man logo on the front.”

The round medallion carved from nut skin, the decoration on it is actually a nondescript assemblage. Zhao Chuanxin often did this trick before, and it was quite bluffing. As for cars, he believed that the forest elves in the Shadow Forest must have never seen one.

[The forest elf saw my carvings and was impressed by my unbridled genius-like imagination. 】

[The forest elf said to me with a face full of amazement: Well, stranger, you have won my respect. I will use the most precious nut skin of the Shadow Forest to imitate your carving as the emblem of our forest elf tribe. As a token of my gratitude, I will give you the gift of an Elven Carving Knife. The Elf Carving Knife is one of the greatest inventions of our forest elves. Ten thousand years ago, we did the double-slit experiment, which proved that matter can be affected by human will. Then we discovered the metal most easily affected by will in the Shadow Forest, and forged it into the head of the Elf Carving Knife. Now, I teach you how to use it! 】

Zhao Chuanxin clenched his fists and said "yes" as if it was stuck in his throat.

The artist doesn't talk about money, but fate. Eighteen thousand yuan... With a little trick, he lost an elf carving knife in vain!

The feeling of knowledge flooding into my mind came over me, and a carving knife with a leather-wrapped handle appeared in my palm.

This is a flat knife!

I remember when Zhao Chuanxin first started practicing carving, the teacher once told them that a good carver often takes over the world with a flat knife!

It can be seen that the flat knife is a universal knife in a certain respect. Of course, later they basically replaced the carving knife with the time-saving and labor-saving tooth machine carving. There are even those who learn to make round engravings and use a five-axis engraving machine to automatically engrave the whole process.

With the carving knife in hand, Zhao Chuanxin also figured out one thing.

Only the items in the diary that asked him to do multiple-choice questions and mentioned rewards were items that could be brought to reality. Otherwise it is not.

For example, next...

[As we were about to leave, the forest elf reluctantly said goodbye to me, expressed his reluctance to leave me, and gave me a lantern flower in the hope of seeing me again. 】

Sure enough, Ming Deng Hua did not appear in reality.

[Then, the forest elf smiled meaningfully at me and said something incomprehensible to me: Stranger, the soft light emitted by the lantern flower will guide you to the right path in this dark forest. 】

[Then, I left the Elf tribe without looking back. 】

Bang, Zhao Chuanxin closed the diary.

He didn't pay attention to the talkative man's verbosity.

Instead, he looked at the carving knife in his hand with great interest.

The Eagle Bone Whistle and Devil's Vine I got before actually didn't have many opportunities to be put to use.

But this carving knife is different.

For a long time, the craft of carving has been firmly engraved in his bones. After a few days of no action, his hands and heart were itchy. It's an addiction, just like smoking.

Liu Baogui’s family was very poor and could not find suitable materials.

This kind of flat knife is suitable for carving bone products or hard materials.

But for veteran craftsmen, these difficulties can be overcome.

He looked at the door frame, held the flat knife, and started to do it.

According to the method taught by the forest elf, the tip of the flat knife seemed to melt. He didn't exert much force, and the wood chips fell down.

The carved stubble is neat!

hiss……

Regardless of whether it is an electric dental machine crane, a pneumatic thrust tool, or a traditional carving knife, he has used them all.

He has tried even a fully automatic circular engraving machine that costs tens of thousands of yuan.

However, the only thing that made him feel amazing was the elf carving knife in his hand.

Because the door frame of Liu Baogui's house is not made of precious hardwood, but ordinary softwood. The wood fiber structure is thick and loose. When carved, the cutting edge will not be so neat and it is easy for barbs to appear. This is one of the reasons why hardwoods are more valuable than softwoods.

But the elf carving knife's head seemed to melt away, more like it turned into molecules that penetrated into the wood, and then solidified and became sharp, shaving off the wood chips.

He simply carved out a circle and carved layers of wave patterns next to the circle, making the round surface three-dimensional. Then the word "福" is carved on the round surface.

The efficiency is simply higher than that of a fully automatic round engraving machine.

The tip of the knife can be wide or narrow, and can be converted into a flat knife, a round knife, a corner knife, a smooth knife, and even for carving out meat according to the will.

This is the real way to conquer the world with a flat sword!

When Liu Guogui came out of the house and wanted to see what Zhao Chuanxin was doing, his eyes widened.

There are rows of exquisite patterns on the broken door frame of his house.

It is not that there were no skilled craftsmen in ancient times, otherwise there would be no such idiom as "carved beams and painted buildings".

However, ancient carvings did not pay attention to three dimensions.

For example, the wave pattern carved by Zhao Chuanxin is matched with the coin-shaped round surface, and "Fu Lu Shou" is simply engraved on it. It is actually very simple, but the three-dimensional effect is particularly strong.

"Do you still have this skill?" Liu Guogui was envious.

Craftsmanship represents jobs.

In the village, whoever knows blacksmithing or carpentry is often represented throughout the village, and anyone who needs help is asked for help.

Zhao Chuanxin straightened up, feeling a little satisfied with the handle, and said calmly: "It's a small matter."

Liu Baogui touched the door frame in amazement and studied it. Taking advantage of this time, Zhao Chuanxin went to the snack basket and took off the kitchen knife. He tried it with the elf carving knife on the back of the knife.

hiss……

What does it mean to cut iron like clay?

Not to mention wood, carving metal is just as easy.

On the back of the kitchen knife, he carved the words "Liu Guogui".
