In the face of the ridicule of the whole building, Chen Xi couldn't hold his face anymore, didn't say a word, flew off the platform, hugged his bewitching female companion, and ran out of the Bell and Drum Tower with a group of friends.

"Ai, Chen Shao, you can still cut a knife! Our Bell and Drum Tower will definitely help you keep this knife." The middle-aged chef stood on the platform and shouted, still smiling all over his face, smiling very happily.

Seeing this scene, Sun Yan finally understood, and said at first glance: "The 60 million credits are only bought for three dollars? Three opportunities to cut ice and take lotus? One knife for 20 million credits?"

"Otherwise, what do you think?" Chen Qinglian pursed his lips, "70% of the profit of the Bell and Drum Tower depends on nothing else, it is this 'ice cutting lotus' event held every night. As long as one person tries it every day, it is a good income. ”

"People who can buy three dollars with 60 million credits are all big dogs!"

Sun Yan shook his head, looking at the [Curling Fire Lotus] on the platform, but there was some emotion in his heart, from Chen Xi's actions just now, he vaguely grasped the possibility of cutting the ice and taking the lotus.

At this time, Chen Qinglian suddenly approached and said softly: "Little brother Yan, do you want my sister and me to give 60 million credits, and you will also go up and cut three knives?"

"I'm going to cut the ice and get the lotus?"

Hearing this, Sun Yan couldn't help but be stunned, but shook his head resolutely: "No, I definitely can't." If it's fighting with people, I'm more proficient, and for such a difficult thing as cutting ice and taking lotus, Sister Chen, you're too difficult for me. ”

Chen Qinglian raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully: "I'll pay for it, what's there to worry about?" Come, little brother Yan, don't worry, even if you fail, I won't blame you, sister." If I happen to succeed, then I can taste this [Curling Fire Lotus]!"

Speaking of which, Chen Qinglian's true intentions were exposed, showing the true colors of a professional-level foodie, who didn't care about 60 million credits for the sake of food.

However, Sun Yan shook his head more resolutely, and said in a loud voice: "No, it's really not good!" Sister Chen, don't embarrass me, I'm so big, I'm the most talented in cooking, you let me go up to cut ice and take lotus, isn't that a waste of credit?"

"It's really useless!" Chen Qinglian showed a look of disappointment, and whispered in a broken voice, "Hmph, you kid really don't have the slightest guts, I really don't know how you dismantled the [Space Fusion High Energy Bomb]." If it weren't for my sister, I would be afraid that my identity would be exposed, where would I need you to come. ”

Faced with the girl's whispered complaints, Sun Yan could only smile bitterly. Actually, it's not that he doesn't want to go up and try, but, considering his current dual identity, on the one hand, he is an undercover agent sent by the military department to Chen's house, and on the other hand, he is Chen Qinglian's personal bodyguard.

No matter what kind of identity, Sun Yan is not suitable for being too public, and officially out of this consideration, when he encountered the provocation of the Chen family's bodyguard team in the morning, he only avoided the truth and did not really have a conflict.

While the two were whispering, several more guests stood up, swiped their cards to pay 60 million credits, and tried to cut the ice and extract the lotus. Unfortunately, no one succeeded, and only a few shallow traces were left on the surface of the curling stone.

However, although no one succeeded, the atmosphere of the entire bell and drum tower was extremely warm, and anyone who saw such a scene of spending a lot of money would inevitably feel their blood gushing.

After watching several guests try to cut the ice and extract lotus, Sun Yan has seen some clues and grasped some characteristics of solidified liquid ice crystals.

The solidified liquid ice crystals are not only extremely hard, but also have an elastic surface that can withstand extremely strong impacts. It is true that if a strong external force is used, the solidified liquid ice crystals can also be destroyed, but if you do that, you will definitely destroy the thistle fire red lotus in the curling.

Only a knife made of original melted gold wood can smoothly cut through the solidified liquid ice crystals, but having a knife made of original melted gold wood is only the basic condition for cutting ice and taking lotus.

If you want to cut out the thistle fire red lotus from the curling stone, and there is only a chance of three knives, then you need to be extremely accurate in the position of the falling knife, the trajectory of the cutting knife, the position of the knife pulled, the grasp of luck, etc., these aspects must be extremely accurate in order to be able to cut out a thistle fire red lotus completely.

In an instant, Sun Yan grasped the key to cutting the ice and taking the lotus, in fact, it was actually asking the knife caster to carve out the outline of a fire lotus along the surface of the thistle fire red lotus within three knives, so that he could really successfully complete the ice cutting and lotus extraction.

The difficulty of these three knives actually includes an extremely complicated knife movement trajectory, which is not only as simple as cooking knife work, but also involves the use of exquisite knife skills, no wonder in the past 100 years, no one has eaten [Curling Fire Lotus].

While thinking about it, the people present saw that several people had returned in vain, and they gradually died down, unwilling to go up and spend money in vain. After the middle-aged chef asked three times in a row, and no one was willing to come forward to try it, the middle-aged chef looked up at the antique clock on the wall, ready to wait until eight o'clock in the evening to officially announce the end.

Seeing this, the diners present sighed one after another, and many people sighed one after another, they rushed over from other planets to see the scene of cutting ice and taking lotus.

"My wife and I met here back then, and now, we have 7 grandchildren, and we still can't see anyone successfully cut open the curling stone!" a middle-aged man shook his head and regretted.

After this month, I will be 650 years old, and I don't know if I will ever see the moment of cutting ice and taking lotus in my lifetime. An old man with white hair shook his head and sighed, lamenting that his time was short.

"Alas, it's past this year. I'm going to work on the planet Niluo in the northern galaxies, and it will be difficult to come back once in the future, isn't it true that no one can taste this [Curling Fire Lotus]?" another young man looked full of regret.

For these professional foodies, to see someone successfully cut the ice and take the lotus, and taste the taste of [curling fire lotus] is already their long-term wish.

Knock knock knock...... The antique mechanical bell on the wall of the bell and drum tower rang, and many guests stood up, shaking their heads regretfully, ready to pay the bill and leave.

At this time, in front of a table on the top floor, a person stood up and smiled, "Please wait a minute, I want to give it a try." Qing Yue's voice slowly echoed in the bell and drum tower, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the eyes of everyone present couldn't help but light up.

I saw a slender young man standing in front of a table on the west side of the top floor, with long golden hair like a waterfall, amber eyes, like a pair of clear gems, wearing a light gray stand-up collar casual dress, and the smile on his face was as warm as a winter day.

When the young man stood up, it seemed to be a rising sun, and his body was overflowing with golden brilliance, standing there quietly, and he also stood out from the crowd and was different.

Staring at this young man, everyone present had a thought in their hearts: "There is such a perfect boy in this world!"

On the other side, Chen Qinglian sighed: "Wow, this kid looks very smart! Little brother Yan, you should learn from this kid, so that you can please women." ”

"It's strange, brother, I am also a jade tree, suave, do you need to emulate others?" Sun Yan retorted.

However, Sun Yan had to admit that this young man had an outstanding demeanor, and his gestures revealed an incomparable dignity, as if he was born to be high and look down on all beings. However, it does not make people feel disgusted. Such a romantic character can only be compared to the mysterious boy Beron of the White Prison Star.

The blonde boy walked to the fence on the top floor, held on to the handrail made of sandalwood, and smiled, "Please wait a moment for the end, I want to try it, can I?"

Although the young man spoke in an inquiring tone, it was impossible to refuse, and the middle-aged chef was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Of course you can, no problem." However, this gentleman, you should also see the difficulty of cutting ice and taking lotus. Why don't you pay 20 million credits and give it a try. ”

The middle-aged chef's words are all for the sake of the youth, where is half a businessman's mercenary appearance.

Looking at this scene, Sun Yan couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and then realized that this young man was born with a kind of superior charm, which made people obey him unconsciously.

Next to him, Chen Qinglian also frowned slightly, and muttered: "This little white face is quite not simple, strange! I know all the young talents of the eight underground potentials of our southern galaxy, how come I have never heard of such a character, how did this kid get into Gu Fengxing." ”

On the side of the fence, the blonde boy shook his head with a smile and said seriously: "The [Curling Fire Lotus] of the Bell and Drum Tower, I have admired it for a long time. Besides, how can I make an exception because of the three-knife rule set by Mr. Chenxian at the beginning. Please let me try three knives, thank you!"

The young man smiled gently, his teeth were crystal clear, and his pupils seemed to be radiating golden light, and he spoke softly, but it was impossible to refuse.

The middle-aged chef hurriedly agreed, turned on the button, and then a slide stretched out again, extending in front of the blonde boy.

Didi ...... , the card reader's display flashes again, frozen at 60 million credits. After the blonde boy swiped his card, he walked up the slide, came to the platform, stood in front of the small dining table, and picked up the light gold knife.

Suddenly, the entire bell and drum tower fell silent, and none of the guests present spoke, for them, no matter how old or young the people who cut the ice and took the lotus, they all hoped that they could succeed. It's just that, at the age of this blonde boy, the diners present did not have much hope.

Holding up the pale gold knife and looking at the crystal clear curling stone, the blonde boy looked very serious, as if he was looking at a beautiful work of art. However, this [Curling Fire Lotus] is indeed exquisite and beautiful, which is breathtaking.

After a while, the blonde boy nodded slightly, his eyes swelled with a bright look, and his right wrist shook, and the knife made of original melted gold wood was cut diagonally vertically, and the movement was extremely casual, as if he could not use a little strength.

Seeing this scene, the people around shook their heads frequently, and many people sighed, this knife was weak and weak, and it was difficult to leave any traces on the curling.

Squeak squeak...... , A light sound like frosting came out, and the pale gold knife was as if it had been cut into the fine sand, and it was easily submerged into the curling, and there seemed to be a layer of golden brilliance circulating on the surface of the blade.
