寻找失传的九层砖雕绝技

他日复一日苦心钻研，终于恢复了早已失传的九层砖雕技艺。一块方寸大小的青砖，他能刻出几十个人物，亭台楼阁层层叠叠，从里到外，有九层之多。
他叫吴正辉，是徽州砖雕的国家级传承人。
十年前,他在一次修复古代砖雕时,发现了一块举世罕见的残损砖雕，不但雕刻精美绝伦,内外层次也非同一般,
吴正辉数一边又一边,让他惊讶无比，这个作品从里到外竟然有九个层次。于是他惊觉，这就是早已失传的徽州砖雕的‘九层雕刻’。
为了验证自己的发现，他向老一辈砖雕匠人四处询问,却无人知晓。
于是他白天晚上，吃饭睡觉，都手不离砖，痴迷其中，终于证实了自己的判断——这就是早已绝世的“九层砖雕技艺”。
这一重大发现 让吴正辉兴奋无比，他开始不断的研究，不停的尝试，试图恢复这一砖雕的顶级技法。
由于砖雕的材料青砖 质地疏松，极易断裂，上百次尝试都无功而返。
每次到了第八、第九层，由于画面藏在几层背后，刀具从各个角度都无法深入，这让吴正辉百思不得其解。但是他觉得古人能做到，肯定有可行的方法。于是他对比了数百块砖雕，发现了古人的多层侧掏技法，同时他又不断改进雕刻工具，先后制作试验了数十把不同形状的刻刀。
在历经半年的反复尝试后，吴正辉终于完成了第一件九层砖雕作品，自此，九层雕刻技艺得以重见天日。
He worked hard day after day, and finally recovered the nine-layer brick carving skills that had long been lost. On a square inch blue brick, he can carve dozens of figures, with pavilions and pavilions stacked on top of each other, with nine floors from the inside to the outside.
His name is Wu Zhenghui, and he is the national inheritor of Huizhou brick carving.
Ten years ago, when he was restoring an ancient brick sculpture, he discovered a damaged brick sculpture that is rare in the world.
Wu Zhenghui counted side by side, which surprised him so much that this work has nine levels from the inside to the outside. So he was shocked that this was the ‘nine-layer carving’ of Huizhou brick carvings that had long been lost.
In order to verify his findings, he asked the older generation of brick carvers around, but no one knew.
So he was obsessed with the bricks during the day and night, eating and sleeping, and was obsessed with it, and finally confirmed his judgment-this is the already peerless "nine-layer brick carving technique".
This major discovery made Wu Zhenghui extremely excited. He began to keep researching and trying to restore the top technique of this brick carving.
Because of the loose texture of the brick carving material, the blue brick is very easy to break, hundreds of attempts have been unsuccessful.
Every time when I reached the eighth and ninth floors, because the picture was hidden behind several layers, the knife could not go deep from all angles, which made Wu Zhenghui puzzled. But he felt that if the ancients could do it, there must be a feasible method. So he compared hundreds of brick carvings and discovered the ancient techniques of multi-layer side cutting. At the same time, he continued to improve the carving tools, making and experimenting dozens of carving knives of different shapes.
After half a year of trial and error, Wu Zhenghui finally completed the first nine-layer brick carving work. Since then, the nine-layer carving skills have been resurrected.
