Chapter 807: Unfinished Ice Sculpture




Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Seeing Yuan Zhou start working, the onlookers in the street immediately fell silent . After all, they all looked forward to witnessing how Yuan Zhou sculpt such a big ice block with the kitchen knife .

Some of them even turned on the camera to film a video . After all, seldom could they see anybody sculpt such a big ice block . After all, this wasn’t the City of Ice, Harbin .

Ice sculptures could hardly be seen in Chengdu, where the weather was hot all year round .

For an instant, there was only the sound of the kitchen knife touching the ice surface . The ice scraps danced in the air and fell on the ground, piling up a layer in a little while .

Yuan Zhou controlled his strength precisely . The biggest difficulties of sculpting the ice dragon lay in the dragon scales and dragon’s whiskers . Sculpting these two places on the ice was like firing a cannon at a mosquito . Even if he had inexhaustible force, he couldn’t use it .

Therefore, many dragon-shaped ice sculptures had very thick dragon’s whiskers, if observed carefully . And the dragon scales were also arranged roughly, which had no sense of movement at all .

If the dragon whiskers were too thick, they weren’t perfectly proportionate to the head of the dragon . And the sense of movement of the dragon scales could be illustrated by the example of snakes . The directions of the scales were different when snakes made different movements . They weren’t actually arranged stiffly . That had very high requirements on eyesight and speed .

To put it bluntly, the dragon scales sculpted by the machines in factories were much better than those sculpted by most of the sculptors . But on the aspect of subtlety, machines could never outclass work done by hands .

The machines had no temperature .

If the dragon’s whiskers were too thin, they would break very easily in the process of sculpting . So the thick whiskers were no more than a helpless choice . However, Yuan Zhou didn’t intend to compromise to the helpless choice today .

Yuan Zhou raised the kitchen knife in his hand at a certain angle to make the knifepoint sharp . He held his breath and waved the knife very quickly . Due to the speed, the knifepoint gave out a cold light in the air . The knife was waved in the shape of the ethereal dragon’s whiskers .

With his eyes blazing like torches, Yuan Zhou maintained the form all along . He didn’t allow any deviation on the specific locations of the ice sculpture .

In a very short time, Yuan Zhou waved the knife again . The sparkling cold light was like a butterfly flying through the bushes . The locations it flashed across were quite ingenious, looking like the great dipper, landing firmly on where they were supposed to be . Anyway, in the eyes of the onlookers, they could hardly believe the angle in which Yuan Zhou waved his knife .

It was his good command of strength that contributed to the dragon’s whiskers with two waves of the knife .

After the ethereal dragon’s whiskers were finished, Yuan Zhou let out a sigh of relief, but immediately he sat on the edge of his seat, again . He still needed to sculpt the dragon scales, which required the most time and vigor . Of course, even if the dragon scales hadn’t been finished yet, the ice sculpture had also taken shape . Two dragons were chasing after a pearl in reverse directions .

“Wu Wu Wu Wu”

The kitchen knife hadn’t fallen on the ice block when the phone in his pocket rang . Yuan Zhou always turned on the vibration mode of his phone while he was sculpting . The main point was that no one called him much anyway .

The first call at the very beginning was directly ignored . After a few seconds, however, more phone calls arrived continuously . Yuan Zhou looked at the dragon sculpture to be finished and the kitchen knife in his hand and then let out a sigh .

As to the sculpting of the dragon scales, Yuan Zhou didn’t dare to say he would 100% succeed . Therefore, it came to an end for now . He put away the kitchen knife and answered the phone .

This action greatly disappointed the onlookers who had been watching the scene of bustle at the side . The ice sculpture wasn’t finished .

“Though there aren’t any dragon scales, the head of the dragon looks so lifelike and mighty . ”

“Boss Yuan’s knife skills have always been quite awesome . ”

“Even if God gave me another two hands, I still won’t be able to do it as well as him,”

“What a pity! I think it would be a work of art after it’s finished . Is Boss Yuan willing to sell his ice sculpture?”

The customers all discussed excitedly and some of them even wanted to buy it . With his very sharp ears, Yuan Zhou kindly accepted these people’s compliments secretly, especially those from the former five people . They had finally experienced the genuine techniques of Yuan Zhou .

Even if the ice sculpture hadn’t been finished, it still aroused much discussion after some onlookers filmed the video and uploaded it on the Internet . Of course, that was a later story .

The issue now was Yuan Zhou answering the phone and closing the restaurant hurriedly .

He rushed straight to the street corner to take a taxi and no one knew where he was heading for .

…

“Coming, I’m coming . Don’t rush me . ” Yuan Zhou hung up the phone and rushed hard towards his destination .

Thanks to his persistence in exercising every morning, Yuan Zhou had a pretty good body . Otherwise, he would have already collapsed out of fatigue .

Even Yuan Zhou was almost exhausted when he saw the shop sign of Datong Icehouse described by Sun Ming . Sometimes, he really felt the branches of Shaxian Snacks had occupied all the snack streets while the branches of Datong Icehouse had occupied all the shopping malls . They were a total of two different brands .

After Yuan Zhou arrived at Datong Icehouse, he stood under the shop sign and looked around before seeing Sun Ming who appeared to be a little depressed . Yuan Zhou patted his shoulder and asked straightforwardly,” Sun Ming, what’s the matter?”

“There you are . You arrived so quickly . Let me first organize my words . ” Sun Ming happened to finish a cigarette . He put out the cigarette butt and immediately ignited another one .

Without saying anything . Yuan Zhou just sat beside him and waited for Sun Ming to organize his words .

Yuan Zhou had barely finished his ice sculpture and postured to others when Sun Ming called him in the afternoon . He told Yuan Zhou that he had something to discuss with him .

With Sun Ming’s amusing temperament, he seldom spoke to Yuan Zhou with such an earnest tone . Therefore, Yuan Zhou immediately closed his restaurant .

When Yuan Zhou arrived at the designated place by taxi with great difficulty, he received a phone call from Sun Ming and was told to go to another place . And on the way to the second place, the place was changed again .

The same thing happened three times . Without exception, he arrived at the destination and was told to change a place again and again . As a friend for years, Yuan Zhou was quite clear that Sun Ming couldn’t help moving about when he was hesitant about something . So Yuan Zhou didn’t complain about the unpleasant experiences .

After Sun Ming finished another cigarette, he started, “I am prepared to rent my clothing store out to practice cycling and then win the championship of Tour of Hainan . ”

This was indeed a large issue . Sun Ming’s family was also a middle-class family and he opened a clothing store at his parents’ expense .

Yuan Zhou stayed calm and heard Sun Ming continue saying .

“You know I have been chasing after a pretty girl, don’t you? I still have a long way to go before I succeed . So I think I must cater to her liking . ” Sun Ming wasn’t so composed as how he appeared, thus he talked incoherently .

“She’s a cycling enthusiast . She likes cycling and pays close attention to the Tour of Hainan and besides, she watches the television broadcast every year . So I believe I’ll have no problem if I get the championship . ” For fear of Yuan Zhou opposing his idea, Sun Ming immediately added before Yuan Zhou answered him .

“I originally had a solid foundation in riding the bicycle . And you also witnessed my riding skill when we rode the shared bicycle together before . It’s good, right? So I think I’ll have no problem to get a championship after practicing hard for half a year . ”

“What do you think of my idea?” Sun Ming looked at Yuan Zhou nervously .

“Pretty good . Have you found anyone to take over your business?” On hearing Sun Ming’s question, Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then answered .

Sun Ming distinctly let out a sigh of relief . He patted on Yuan Zhou’s shoulder excitedly and said, “I knew you would definitely stand by me . Yuan Zhou, do you know you are the first who supports my idea . When I told others about my idea, they all believed that I was whimsical or crazy . ”
