Yuan Zhou's voice was so light that Cheng Ying on the side couldn't hear it clearly.

"Master, what are you carving today?" Cheng Ying looked at the things on the table curiously, very strange.

Cheng Ying accompanied Yuan Zhou to buy vegetables, and generally bought vegetables of roots or melons, so that vegetables can be carved.

And now there is a green bamboo tube on the table where Yuan Zhou usually places the carved ingredients, a palm-sized but deep stone, and a piece of wood that can't tell what kind of tree it is, and even the outer skin of the wood is still on it.

"Non-food carving. "Yuan Zhou Road.

"Do we still need to know this as chefs?" Cheng Ying said frightened.

"I need to. "Yuan Zhou Road.

"But, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with cooking?" Cheng Ying said cautiously.

"These can be used to practice wrist strength, wrist dexterity, and mastery of a variety of soft and hard ingredients, and can be used as a food utensil. It is rare for Yuan Zhou to say such a long sentence in such a whole paragraph.

"But Master, your carving is already very, very powerful. Cheng Ying said sincerely.

"No, it's not even close. Yuan Zhou shook his head, remembering the next part of the carving that had not yet landed.

"Master, your requirements for yourself are too high. Cheng Ying said with admiration and emotion.

"That's how you can progress. Yuan Zhou began to hold a knife in one hand and a bamboo knot in the other, ready to carve.

"Come on, Shigong, Shigong is the most powerful. As a salted fish who is only three years old behind Yuan Zhou but can only have a little West Pastry, Cheng Ying decisively began to shout 666 to help Yuan Zhou cheer.

Yuan Zhou nodded, and then began to observe the bamboo knot in his hand.

This bamboo knot is supposed to be the middle of the bamboo, the thickness is about the size of Yuan Zhou's wrist, there are two bamboo tubes in total, and there is an obvious slightly yellow bamboo knot in the middle.

The cutting place is very flat and there are no sawdust, and the outer layer of green is also very bright, and it feels slightly moist to the touch, which should have just been cut.

Yuan Zhou pinched it with his hand to test the softness and hardness of the bamboo tube, and then flipped the bamboo knots in his hand and looked at it carefully again.

Every time he is faced with a new ingredient or a carving material, Yuan Zhou will carefully observe it and start carving when he knows it in his heart.

And now Yuan Zhou has been observing this bamboo knot for a little longer than usual, after all, this is the first time he has carved bamboo.

"Use the technique of relief to make a container that can be used at both ends. Yuan Zhou's thoughts gradually matured.

"My fellow villager Su Shi a thousand years ago said that you can eat without meat, and you can't live without bamboo. No meat makes people thin, and no bamboo makes people vulgar. Then carve something elegant. The first thing that came to mind when Yuan Zhou picked up the bamboo was this poem, and he decided what kind of pattern to carve in his heart.

Yuan Zhou clenched the miracle kitchen knife in his right hand, held the bamboo tube in his left hand, and started to cut directly without hesitation.

When the sharp kitchen knife cuts on the surface of the bamboo, it does not make a sound at all, and smoothly separates the green bamboo skin on the surface.

In fact, bamboo carving is also known as bamboo carving, this skill is mainly popular in southern China, and developed to its peak in the Ming Dynasty, and two factions were born.

One faction is the Jinling bamboo carving represented by the Jinling bamboo carving, and the other is the Jiading faction represented by the magic capital.

Of course, there are many factions under these two factions, but represented by these two factions, and the system gives Yuanzhou not only bamboo carvings, but also wood carvings, stone carvings, bone carvings, and so on.

When Yuan Zhou absorbed these skills, he chose the most suitable for himself to practice first, that is, the carving technique of Liuqing.

The carving technique of Liuqing is flat carving, this technique is commonly used and most familiar in Yuanzhou, and the meaning of Liuqing is to carve the pattern with a layer of green skin on the surface of the bamboo, and shovel the green skin outside the pattern to expose the bamboo muscles.

Because of the use of simple and familiar carving techniques for Yuan Zhou, it is difficult for Yuan Zhou to choose when choosing the carving pattern.

Yes, Yuan Zhou is ready to carve Su Dongpo's poetry.

The green skin of the bamboo slowly piled up under his feet as Yuan Zhou's hand fell.

Cheng Ying, who was behind her, widened her eyes and watched Yuan Zhou's movements seriously.

Carving is a boring thing, or it is very boring when practicing any skill, but Yuan Zhou has the patience to practice seriously.

In this way, two hours passed in a flash, and Cheng Ying's feet were numb and changed more than a dozen standing postures, but Yuan Zhou still maintained the posture he had at the beginning, not even bending his straight back a little, and the kitchen knife in his hand was still wielding it vigorously.

It's just that the swing is getting smaller and smaller, as the engraving is already starting to come to an end.

"Shigong is really amazing, he just sits for hours without changing his position. Cheng Ying changed her posture again and sighed in her heart.

"Alas. Suddenly, Yuan Zhou sighed lightly, and then the bamboo tube just now was thrown directly into the trash can at his feet.

"Master!" Cheng Ying stared at the exquisite bamboo carvings in the trash can, looking incredulous.

"Oh, it's time to prepare lunch. Yuan Zhou only reacted and began to clean up.

"No, Master, this bamboo carving ......" Cheng Ying pointed to a bamboo tube with a delicate pattern exposed in the trash can, and she couldn't say all the excited words.

"The carving is broken, and I can't ask for it. Yuan Zhou said lightly.

"Uh. Cheng Ying said she choked.

Cheng Ying assured with her excellent eyesight that the bamboo carving was perfect, and a man in a flowing robe was standing in a verdant bamboo forest looking up at the sky, holding a wine glass in his hand and holding his back behind his back.

At this time, it was like a gust of wind blowing, the robe floated up, the bamboo leaves fell to the ground of the bluestone slab, and even half of the shadow of a bright moon could be seen between the bamboo forests.

The whole picture is beautiful just like a painting of Wuhai, but such a perfect carving Yuan Zhou said that the carving is broken.

"It's time for you to go back to lunch. Yuan Zhou reminded as he moved the table.

"Oh yes, lunch, no! Master is not talking about lunch now, I have seen this bamboo carving, so beautiful, so exquisite, so perfect, there is no flaw at all!" Cheng Ying nodded stunned at first, and then immediately chased after Yuan Zhou and said.

You must know that in Cheng Ying's opinion, this bamboo carving is not only flawless and perfect, but there is a little flaw, but this is the result of his master sitting there for two hours, how can he say that he will lose it.

"There's a bunch of hair that's broken. Yuan Zhou put down the table and said.

"It's just a little hair...... Cheng Ying subconsciously wanted to refute, but looking at Yuan Zhou's serious face, she swallowed the words back in her mouth.

Cheng Ying remembered that her master was an obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he was still an obsessive-compulsive disorder of ultimate evolution.

How Cheng Ying remembered correctly, not long after Yuan Zhou started carving, the hair outside the Confucian scarf hat was broken, but he still threw it away after the bamboo carving was finished.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder is so persistent, even if it is wrong, it will carve the whole picture and then throw it.

"Could it be that in this world, only obsessive-compulsive disorder can be so powerful?!" Cheng Ying asked.
