Tattoo - Chapter 41
Chapter 41
Xiao Ke didn’t wake up Zhou Gui in the end, he went to the toilet lightly, and went back to sleep by himself. When he woke up the next morning, Zhou Gui was lying next to him, awake.
Xiao Ke opposed him, then smiled and said, “Good morning, Teacher Zhou.”
The voice was still lazy and husky, who just woke up, and Zhou sin also smiled: “Good morning.”
People who still have to go to work are not qualified to stay in bed, and Xiao Ke can still eat the breakfast made by the mouthful of sin, which makes him feel very satisfied and his life is complete. The porridge was set in the pot last night. The lean meat porridge was fragrant with a little salt and sesame oil. Xiao Ke’s ingredients are limited here. In addition to porridge, he can still eat a quiche.
Xiao Ke sighed while drinking porridge and said, “I feel like I won the prize if I win the prize.”
Zhou Gui smiled, shook his head and said, “I should say this sentence.”
“Are we polite to each other?” Xiao Ke drank his porridge again and said with a smile: “Are you coming to my place tonight? I won’t drive if I come.”
Zhou Gui thought for a while and said, “I have a client this afternoon. I’m not sure if I can do it at five o’clock. Is it too late to pick you up at five thirty?”
“Don’t pick me up, I’ll take a taxi and go to the store to find you.” Xiao Ke looked at Zhou Sin and smiled. “Don’t be so careful with me, we are two rough guys, don’t care too much about me.”
Zhou Gui disagreed with him and immediately said, “I am a rough man, you are not.”
Teacher Xiao is certainly not a rough man. From the perspective of Zhou Sin, Xiao Ke lives very delicately and understands very well. Xiao Ke got along with him very deliberately, with a very careful mind, never perfunctory. Zhou Zhou naturally also put Xiao Ke in a very important position, with great respect.
Zhou Gui wanted to go to school to pick up Xiao Ke, but the client arrived an hour late, Xiao Ke couldn’t finish his work time, and finally took a taxi by himself. As soon as Xiao Ke came in, Zhou Sin said to him, “Sorry.”
Xiao Ke laughed at that time, walked over and wrapped his neck around one hand: “Sorry, baby, don’t make a noise.”
The voice of this sentence is very small, the tattoo machine is buzzing, and even the customer sitting in front of it is probably not able to hear it.
Zhou Gui said: “Not finished, you wait for me later.”
“Anyway, not in a hurry.” Xiao Ke let go of Zhou’s crime and let him continue working. He looked around and asked, “What about Xiaobei?”
Zhou Gui pointed his chin to a tattoo room inside. Xiao Kehuang walked over. Xiao Ke leaned against the door frame and looked up. Xiao Ke smiled at him.
Wearing a mask and hat, Lu Xiaobei couldn’t see any expressions. He blinked and said hello.
His client is a cool beauty, with black long straight on his shoulders and only a half-length black vest on his upper body. Lu Xiaobei is painting spiders on her waist. The **** spider looks fierce, but it’s cool enough. This kind of picture is still a bit heavy for Xiao Ke, and I feel uncomfortable after reading it for a long time.
Xiao Kegang turned around and left. Hearing that girl asked Lu Xiaobei, “Dude, are you looking after my brother?”
Lu Xiaobei calmly replied, “I think too much.”
Xiao Ke looked back and looked in. The girl was lying on the back of the chair, and her black nails knocked down the front shelf. She said blankly, “Okay, my brother, you can’t help but tease.”
Lu Xiaobei said, “No one is funny.”
The girl lay there and said, “He’s just a fool, dude, there is no best, if the picture is fresh, he will show mercy.”
According to Lu Xiaobei’s character, the machine gun should suddenly go back, but after he was silent, it turned out to be “um”.
Xiao Ke was a bit surprised, and felt that Peking had been milder recently. And who is this girl’s younger brother? He also wants to know. Although Xiao Ke is not so interested in other people’s affairs, Lu Xiaobei’s identity is different after all, and the relationship is here.
The exhibition will begin next weekend, and almost all of the plans to go are ready. Most of the tattoo artists in the store have reported to the group, and only one has reported to the field group. The work team should finish the tattoo in advance, and then the model will directly compare with the work. Therefore, the shop has been very lively during this time. A tattoo artist can submit up to five works, and many models come.
A tattoo artist has been preparing for more than two months and intends to report a Japanese-style full-body group. Xiao Ke saw his whole body in the shop for the first time. After all, if there is no competition, in fact, few people dare to do this in daily life. The impact on people who do not understand tattoos is still too great.
Japanese tattoos are fancy and bright in color. There are full pictures from the neck to the feet. Basically, the pictures on the back have not been made yet, and the previous ones need to be supplemented. It is really hard to catch such a work.
With more than a week left to go, there is still one leg left unfinished. The finished part looked really shocking. When Xiao Ke passed, he occasionally went to see him for drawing. The model was recruited online. I wanted to be a flower back. I heard that it is free to do full body music. But it is rare to not regret it now. In fact, the tattoo is also a crime, so I wo n’t talk about it. It’s very tormenting to come and do this every day for two months.
Xiao Ke asked Zhou Sin in private: “Do you think this can win a prize?”
Zhou Gui said: “Not necessarily, not sure.”
At the time, Lu Xiaobei was also there. Only he and Zhou Gui were still packing in the store. Lu Xiaobei shook his head and said, “I feel embarrassed.”
Xiao Ke asked him, “How do you say?”
Lu Xiaobei held the cigarette and didn’t light it, so he bit the cigarette and said, “It’s quite ordinary. He has been grinding for too long. The picture can’t be ground like this. The things that are ground out like this are not spiritual.”
Xiao smiled and said, “I thought the tattoo was well-crafted.”
“There is nothing wrong with that,” Lu Xiaobei dismantled his machine, put it together, put it away, and lowered his head. “But he has to think about the details and small things. If the outline is rubbed, it is not easy, Inspiration is not enough, and the hand feels average. It is the same as drawing. After changing the mood, the mood is gone. You can see his picture, the front and back are detached, and the back is filled with dummy things. The hue is also darker. “
Xiao Ke didn’t understand this, he watched a lively one while watching, and couldn’t see the doorway. In his opinion, the works that have been so shocking can only be mixed at their average level.
“It’s a pity,” Xiao Ke felt a bit sorry that he didn’t get the award at the end of these two months and nights of rushing to work, and said, “Be prepared for so long.”
Zhou Gui walked past him, his hands were not clean, so he touched Xiao Chi’s chin with his wrist. Xiao Ke smiled at him, Zhou said: “It’s a pity that he knows it well. And he doesn’t necessarily get the prize. There are fewer people in this big group and the competition is smaller.”
It’s actually not easy to get a prize from a tattoo contest. Those who spend money on it don’t count. It is difficult to win a prize at a regular tattoo exhibition. There are people outside, tattoos also look at the feel, there are so many strengths, it is too fierce to come up with a prize.
In fact, we do n’t know how to use this full-body picture. Many of them are made for the first time, and they go directly to the competition. The small competition is on the one hand. Another important reason is that the map is too large. Going out for hundreds of hours, the gunmen can’t afford it, so there is little water, and the competition is generally true.
Lu Xiaobei smiled at the time and said, “You can invite Master to be a half-women or a flower arm. This kind of full-body master can be as cheap as 1.8 million, and the apprenticeship is worth so much money. Not so much money, not all teachers and apprentices are like me and my brother. “
This statement is true. Most of the apprentices in the tattoo industry have to tie up money. It costs money to visit the teacher. Apprentices also have to spend money. The tuition is quite expensive. And not all masters are willing to be gunners, just as if Lu Xiaobei went out to play, Zhou may not even look at the pictures for him.
The game is a game, and the game must have rules, and people must have rules.
There are many such exhibitions every year, but this is the largest international exhibition of the year, this time in Beijing this year. Several tattooists in the shop are preparing nervously every day, and only Zhou Xin and Lu Xiaobei do leisurely daily painting.
The entire first floor was vacated to the tattoo artist who was going to compete, and the brothers were working upstairs. Xiao Ke looked at the data from the mobile phone on the sofa while discussing with other teachers in the work group. Zhou Sin’s customers on this day are very special, they need to make a set of rings, hand rings, foot rings and neck rings.
The two boys came together. In fact, the meaning of this picture is obvious. Although Xiao Qie did not mix the circle, he knew a little. The pure black ring has a specially made leather texture, and the edges are treated with burrs. The neck ring even has a metal pendant with an initials on the pendant.
Zhou Gui emphasized again before making the picture: “This density of black is not easy to wash. If you want to wash it later, it won’t be clean. Consider it again.”
The one to be tattooed glanced at the other and accompanied him. The boy had no expression, looked a little cold, and said to him, “You decide for yourself.”
The boy was very firm in answering, with his eyes down: “Don’t think about it, you can be a teacher.”
Xiao Kexin said that the children are playing so wildly now that they are mad and fearless and don’t leave themselves a way out. This ring pattern basically labels itself on the body, and those who know it will understand it at a glance.
The boy’s eyes were very naked when he looked at the other one, that kind of pious and warm eyes.
Later, when only the last bracelet was left unfinished, the guy who had been watching beside him suddenly said suddenly, “This is me.”
Zhou Gui glanced at him without nodding.
Tattoos are not paintings. They have to be carved into the skin. They are too deep to damage tissue or too light to be opaque. Although it is not so difficult to fill the ring with pure black, tattoos are inherently dangerous and it is impossible to let them go to fool.
The guy who was doing the tattoo seemed to have flashed several degrees in an instant, stared straight at the other guy, and nodded strongly, “Let him do it, teacher.”
It was impossible for Zhou to let them do it, but when the color blocks were aggravated at last, the boy scanned it a few times. Despite being tattooed in this way, the one still satisfied, the whole face was red, and his lips were tightly pressed, looking nervous and excited.
Xiao Ke looked at them and sighed in his heart. The road ahead is difficult, hoping that young children will always carry such a desperate enthusiasm. The ring on the body represents eternal freedom rather than shackles.
Xiao Ke pointed at the scar on his ankle that night, and asked Zhou why he didn’t tattoo him.
He had asked this question several times, and he was stopped by Zhou Gui. Zhou Gui touched his scar this time, looked at his eyes and said, “Don’t carve anything on your body.”
Xiao Ke raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why?”
Zhou Gui smiled lightly, and there was still a puppet in the air just after intimacy. He rubbed Xiao Ke’s ankle and whispered, “No matter what is left on the body, he will take it for a lifetime. Carving something on the body is a kind of piggyback, and he will bear the wishes and thoughts of the time until he dies. When the mind does not change, it is commemoration and giving. If the mind changes, it is an eternal burden. There is such a thing on your body that always reminds you that you have lost your mind, and it is a pain in itself. “
Xiao Ke frowned and wanted to speak. Zhou Gui kissed him on the lips and continued, “I hope Teacher Xiao will be happy forever, and any choice will be free and easy afterwards.”
