Chapter Fifty-Eight: Threading the Needle [First Update]
Ai Hui's expression was extremely serious, the murderous intent in his eyes was like autumn, awe-inspiring and cold, and the air around him seemed to be about to freeze. The fine beads of sweat on his forehead, he didn't notice it.
In front of the tip of the index finger of his right hand, a silver light was like a needle, and he held a thin thread in his left hand and carefully pierced it into the pinhole of the Yuanli needle.
The pinhole of the Yuanli needle is very unstable, one will be big and the other will be small, it is very difficult to control, Ai Hui tried for a long time, but he has not succeeded so far.
There was a burst of girls' laughter behind him, and a man came to the embroidery workshop, who had already aroused the curiosity of the little girls, and ran over to watch. Men are not allowed to enter the embroidery workshop, so when the little girl saw Ai Hui, her eyes lit up and she was full of curiosity.
And when Ai Hui began to learn embroidery, everyone was excited, a man learning embroidery, this has never been seen.
"It's so stupid, I've been wearing it for so long, and I haven't put the thread on. ”
"That's it, you see him sweating profusely, and his eyes are really fierce!"
"Because he has a grudge against the thread!"
......
The girls were chattering and laughing, and they thought it was very funny. Especially seeing Ai Hui clumsy, it is like seeing a rare animal.
Fortunately, Ai Hui's entire attention was on the Yuanli needle and thread, and he turned a deaf ear to the sounds of the outside world, otherwise he would definitely vomit blood when he heard these ridicules.
Each person's workstation in the embroidery workshop is separated by a light gauze curtain, and the translucent light gauze curtain can be seen from the outside.
Behind the curtain, Wang Shouchuan was drinking tea with the old lady, and his eyes occasionally glanced in Ai Hui's direction.
"I haven't even put on a thread yet, do you think he's really suitable for embroidery?" the old lady asked lightly, retracting her gaze.
Lao Wang drank tea with a leisurely expression: "I don't expect him to make money from this and exercise Yuan Li." Besides, didn't you notice that this kid's concentration is a bit strong?"
"It's a little. The old lady also had a hint of appreciation in her tone: "At such a young age, I didn't succeed in stringing for half a day, I am not discouraged at all, and it is not easy to be so focused." His temperament is indeed good, no wonder you accepted him as a disciple. ”
Lao Wang got up proudly, accepted a good apprentice, and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't show off recently: "That's it! Don't look at his poor qualifications, but the Seven Strong Palace, and this kid is really solid in learning things, and the Yuan Mansion is full of Yuan power." No one instructed him, he practiced by himself, so it's amazing. Even my thousand things have survived, and I admire them. ”
The old lady showed a look of surprise on her face, Ai Hui was ordinary in every way, but she didn't expect that there were many outstanding points.
"Looks like you're satisfied. The old lady was a little surprised, she knew how bad Lao Wang's temper was, and his stubbornness at some times was completely unreasonable, and she thought very highly of herself.
"Not satisfied, very satisfied. Lao Wang corrected: "I have encountered two good things in my life, one is to meet you, and the other is to finally have an apprentice before I die." ”
The old lady was overjoyed when she heard the first half of the sentence, and when she heard the second half of the sentence, her brows immediately wrinkled, and she said angrily: "It's okay to say that you want to die, you want to die yourself." ”
"Hey, hey. The old man was a little embarrassed, but changed the subject: "I told him how good you are." You don't know, I said that you can control nine hundred and forty-nine Yuan Force Needles, and that kid's eyes widened. ”
"Now it's one thousand and sixty-four!" said the old lady proudly, and then said to herself, "It seems that I am going to give him some real chapters." ”
"Toss hard, toss casually, don't be afraid of bad practice, what work is difficult to give him what work, what work is tired to give him what work. What this kid eats is grass, and what he pulls out is treasure!" the old man said.
The old lady was amused: "It's pitiful to be your apprentice." ”
Ai Hui didn't know that he had been sold by the old man, and his thread was finally put on the Yuanli needle, and he realized that his forehead was full of sweat. He now fully believed the old man's statement, embroidery did test the control of Yuan Li. In the past, he still felt that his Yuan Force control was not bad, but today he was completely hit.
If you really get started, you will know the difficulty of this.
It is not easy to stabilize the Yuanli needle, and what is even more difficult is to open a pinhole at the end of the condensed Yuanli needle. Ai Hui was stumped by this step for a long time, and finally successfully formed a pinhole under the guidance. However, Ai Hui soon found that it is not easy to form pinholes, and it is even more difficult to stabilize pinholes, and the most important thing to thread is to stabilize pinholes.
The thread of the left hand and the needle of the right hand must be divided into two uses.
Ai Hui's pinholes are sometimes big and sometimes small, so they always fail to string. Fortunately, after an afternoon of groping, he finally figured out the pattern and put threads on his Yuanli needle.
He couldn't help but sigh that the requirements for the control of Yuan Force in embroidery were too high.
Ai Hui thought of the embroidery master that the teacher said could control more than 900 Yuanli needles at the same time, what a terrifying thing it was.
But Ai Hui quickly became excited, if he was a little skeptical of the teacher's statement before, now he was extremely sure that embroidery was an excellent way to cultivate.
He only cares about improving his strength, he doesn't care about face, he doesn't care at all.
"How does it feel?"
The teacher's voice came from behind him.
Ai Hui hurriedly got up, only then did he notice that the teacher was behind him at some point. Next to the teacher was the owner of the embroidery workshop, a serious old lady.
"It feels good. He thought for a moment and continued: "A very effective cultivation method, which requires a high level of control of Yuan Force. ”
This time I came to the embroidery workshop, which was really an eye-opener. He used to think that the embroidery workshop was just a place for embroidery, but when he arrived here, he realized that it was completely different from what he thought.
It's more like a workshop.
There were a lot of cloths, yarns, and unfinished leather armor, and even swords, and the smell of herbs filled the air. After asking the master, I found out that the rope and tassel of the hilt of the sword need to be embroidered, and these things are not simply good-looking, but are all for combat services. For example, the rope of the hilt of the sword is made of unusual materials, and it needs to be twisted into a special thick rope with a unique stitching method. High-level Yuan swords, often formed naturally, are very repulsive to other things, ordinary techniques, can not be wrapped around the hilt of the sword at all, need to use special techniques.
Ai Hui also saw a soft grass sword that he had never seen before, and the patterns on the sword body were embroidered. After asking the teacher, I found out that this is the soft grass sword embryo, and the patterns on the sword body can make Yuan Li better penetrate the sword body and enhance the power. These sword embryos will be sent to the Grass Soldier Initial Workshop for further processing, and after soaking in potions, they can be uniquely tempered to form a high-level grass sword.
Basically, as long as it is related to thread and rope, the embroidery workshop sees it.
Of course, the embroidery workshop only accepts high-end goods.
And those embroidery techniques are even more dazzling, and Ai Hui is amazed.
