and stone gambling activities. Every holiday, such as the city god's tour of the sun and the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there are also grand temple fairs and various exquisite lanterns and lantern riddles. and other activities.

      It can be said that this is one of the areas where the traditional ancient culture and customs are preserved the most in the Xia Kingdom, attracting a large number of tourists every year.

      Guo Shihu is also a local and has studied at Jinling University for four years. He is very clear about the Chenghuang Temple. He took Gao Jingfei and got off the bus not far from the Chenghuang Temple Pedestrian Street, which was about to be crowded. Then he turned left and right, and he came here. Come on a quieter street.

      Said to be quiet, it is compared with the crowds on Chenghuangmiao Street, where there are also many people lingering in various shops on the street.

      Gao Jingfei looked at this small street that was neither wide nor long, or it was about as small as a larger alley, but the buildings here were all simple and simple bricks and tiles, although it was not as bright as the decoration on the Chenghuangmiao Street. Bright, but more of a historical charm in it.

      If it weren't for the floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors renovated by various shops on the street, he would have thought that this was a return to Jinling City in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

      here is? Gao Jingfei asked curiously.

      Guo Shihu said proudly:

      how about it? It's nice here, isn't it? This place is called Tsing Yi Alley. It is actually an antique building modeled after the 1990s. It was introduced to me by a senior I met in the club. It is very low-key, and most locals, not people in the circle, know little about it.

      As he walked, he introduced to Gao Jingfei:

      Don't look at it as an antique, but it has more flavor than the Chenghuangmiao Street, and each of the shops on this street has its own characteristics. The natural paper and bamboo tendon materials we are looking for are not easy to find outside for a while. Landed here.

      Naturally, Gao Jingkun could only nod his head. He didn't know what to say to describe it, because looking at the dazzling array of shops and windows on both sides of the alley, his eyes were not enough.

      Under the leadership of Guo Shihu, the two quickly came to a shop specializing in the Four Treasures of the Study, and watched the clerk or the man dressed in Tsing Yi and the little hat greet them. It has the illusion of traveling through time and space.

      After Guo Shihu had a few words with the guy, he saw the guy shaking his head helplessly.

      Guo Shihu could only say goodbye and pull Gao Jingfei away from the store.

      After leaving this quaint shop, Gao Jingfei asked:

      Brother Hu, why is there no paper for sale here?

      Guo Shihu said:

      There are, but there are rice paper used for calligraphy and painting. I feel a little too fragile to be a paper figurine.

      In fact, although the rice paper used to make paper figurines is low-quality, it can also be shaped by sacrifice. However, since Guo Shihu has higher requirements, Gao Jingfei, who is not familiar with this place, can only listen and respect.

      Fortunately, Guo Shihu quickly found a substitute for paper, in a shop dealing with ancient art such as paper kites, lanterns, folding fans and oil-paper umbrellas.

      And because these things are all bamboo products, this store not only sells paper, but also various bamboo materials.

      Okay, now the paper and bamboo tendons are all over

      Guo Shihu smiled and asked the clerk to help choose some polished bamboo strips of several sizes, as well as the tough white bamboo paper and mulberry paper specially made in their store for paper kites, because kites need to withstand the wind, and this store They also feature handmade signs made by natural ancient methods, so these bamboo paper and mulberry paper are stronger and tougher than ordinary paper, which is an excellent material for making paper figures.

      Then Guo Shihu bought some sundries such as paints, all of which are antiques with natural ingredients.

      Gao Jingfei was also very happy that his trip was worthwhile, but it cost him thousands of dollars to make him talk to Guo Shihu for some reason. Seeing his embarrassed appearance, Guo Shihu waved his hand and said:

      Don't care about this little money, if you become a psychic paper figurine, just give me two to play with.

      The paper figurine is not something that can be used when it is ready. It takes time and effort to sacrifice and refine it to take shape.

      Gao Jingfei didn't bother about this issue, the two excitedly took a pile of materials and called a car back to the police dormitory.

      When he arrived at the apartment, Gao Jingfei saw what an artist and a craftsman are called. He saw that Mr. Guo Shihu had made a pencil draft on the drawing paper, and had a specific image structure in his mind. Start programming quickly.

      Just like the old people Gao Jingfei had seen in the village weaving baskets, but Guo Shihu's technique was more subtle. In less than half an hour, a human-shaped frame composed of bamboo skeleton grids was already presented in front of Gao Jingfei's eyes.

      Gao Jingfei exclaimed:

      Brother Hu, your craftsmanship, tsk tsk, even if you perform on the flyover, you can support a family!

      For Gao Jingfei's inappropriate description, Guo Shihu gave the boy a blank eye, but he understood that the boy was complimenting, so he was very proud of himself.

      This is the only thing other than the classmates who share the same hobbies in the school and the club, the only one who does not criticize himself for playing with things, but praises his existence.

      After all, in the eyes of his parents and eldest brother, his craftsmanship is not a serious business.

      Guo Shihu couldn't help but sigh, the big brother is better, after all, the concept of youth is different, but his parents were born in an intellectual family like a scholarly family, and they have always regarded the two-dimensional industry of hand model manufacturing as an indecent plaything.

      He didn't want to give up his postgraduate studies and the bright future of the Architecture Department of Jinling University. He even sneered at the idea of opening a model studio by himself. He almost fell out. This is also the biggest reason for him to leave home and hide.

      Therefore, he was still very pleased with Gao Jingfei's praise.

      The skeleton has been set up, and this bamboo-made human figure has all the limbs and five senses at this time, and even the outline of the clothes and armor can be seen, and the armor Guo Shihu is specially made into a detachable version, just pasted on paper and colored. It's a real paper man.

      Next, Guo Shihu began to cut the paper where he moved, and then used natural glutinous rice glue to paste on the skeleton. The inside and skin were made of light but strong white bamboo paper, and the armor and outerwear were made of thicker and tougher mulberry paper.

      Even the coloring is done with natural dyes bought in shops in Tsing Yi Lane, and the texture of the skin and even the pectoral muscles and abs are revealed.

      After finishing, Guo Shihu also seriously put gold foil on the armor. This is real gold foil, not the fake gold and silver ingots made by factories on the market that are burned for ancestors.

      In fact, gold foil is not expensive on average, because the thickness of gold foil is extremely thin, and one gram of gold can be extended to a large area.

      When the last gold foil was pasted, what appeared in front of Gao Jingfei was a beautiful doll about 30 cm or 12 inches.

      Because the most common figure or soldier is a 1:6 size, which is 12 inches in the imperial system, Guo Shihu habitually made this paper figurine to this size, which is almost the
