Chapter Forty-Three: An Unexpected Binding of Luck
After disturbing Old Man Xu for a day, Ye Xiu and Yan Yuanyi said goodbye to each other, and not long after they walked out of the compound, Ye Xiu's eyes lit up.
"Sister Yuanyi, what do you think is that?"
Yan Yuanyi looked in the direction he pointed out, and a homemade ceramic figure appeared in her own field of vision.
"Do you remember when we were children, once you accidentally broke my clay pot, and in a hurry, we made the clay pot?"
Yan Yuanyi raised her eyebrows, and a smile of memory appeared on her face.
"Of course I remember, I was scared for half a month, thinking that we would be able to hide from the world, but I didn't expect your father to see it a long time ago, and blocked me in the courtyard and warned me fiercely.
Since that day, I have made up my mind to secretly practice pottery making for more than a year, and I am also ready to make more exquisite porcelain. ”
Ye Xiu looked at Yan Yuanyi and said confidently.
"Hahaha, cut, as far as your skills are concerned, everyone who understands them."
The corners of Yan Yuanyi's mouth twitched, and she twisted her head to the side.
[This girl is quite arrogant, and she just lifted the ceramic figure, otherwise I might really overturn. 】
Hearing Ye Xiu's heart, Yan Yuanyi suddenly said secretly in his heart: "Okay, you Ye Xiu, you still want to fool me, you want to understate it, I won't let you get your way." ”
"Oh, since we happened to meet us, why don't we go in and have a look now?" Yan Yuanyi looked at Ye Xiu with anticipation, pretending to be weak.
[No, I really don't understand the woman, alas, it was a different appearance just now, and now I immediately change my face, I'm afraid I won't want to see me make a fool of myself. 】
"Welcome, sir."
"Welcome, ma'am."
Under the greeting of the usher, Ye Xiu and the two walked into the ceramic figure shop, he swept his eyes and found that although the space in the store was small, all kinds of configurations were complete.
An old man with gray hair was looking up at the two young men who walked in.
"Young man, you can make all kinds of rough embryos, and no one can disturb you, of course, when you want to make rough embryos, you can tell me to come and put your pottery into the pottery kiln to fire."
After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Ye Xiu and Yan Yuanyi began to select materials.
In the clay, carefully add the right amount of water, as with the dough, press and knead it, repeatedly.
A quarter of an hour later, a well-sized clay block came into view.
Put the kneaded clay block on the bottom plate, and Ye Xiu is going to make a bamboo chair, which is built with mud strips to shape the mud embryo.
After a long time, a bamboo chair with a rough outline came into Yan Yuanyi's eyes, and there was a clay figure sitting on it.
He then kneaded a clay block into a cone and placed it on the potter's wheel, and when the potter's wheel turned, his fingers pressed and shaped the clay to make it a perfect cone.
Until the clay embryo no longer shakes, Ye Xiu pinched his index finger and thumb out of a 90-degree angle, slowly pressed down from the top of the cone, and then held the bottom of the clay embryo with both hands.
A magical scene appeared, the clay embryo was naturally lifted, and the most critical step came, pressing down from the center of the clay embryo with four fingers, and pulling up on the outside of the pinch, it would form the shape of a coreless glass.
After that, Ye Xiu pinched the upper end of the clay embryo with one hand and slowly closed it, and the general shape of an ornamental bottle was ready.
Beads of sweat dripped from Ye Xiu's forehead, Yan Yuanyi saw it in his eyes, and took out a wet towel to wipe it for him.
I saw Ye Xiu take out a small brush and dip it in a little water to trim the shape of the pottery.
"Whew!"
Ye Xiu took a long breath, making ceramic figures is a delicate job, paying attention to step by step, which is similar to boxing.
Put a few small gadgets made in a special tool, dry for an hour, and finally dry the mud embryo.
took out the tools to cut and scrape directly, and then polished them with sandpaper, Ye Xiu's eyes were firmly fixed on the pottery, and his concentration was very concentrated.
It's a very patient job, and you can't afford to make the slightest mistake.
"Alright, an ornamental bottle is almost finished."
Looking at the brightly colored ornamental bottle in front of him, Ye Xiu felt satisfied.
Concocted according to the law, the two immersed themselves in the process of making porcelain, enjoying the silence, and soon, several pottery works were made.
Next, is the firing of pottery links, pottery works seven points by hard work, three points of destiny, good clay sculpture, to experience the baptism of fire.
After several hours of firing in an electric kiln, the pottery figure is finally formed in an interweaving of light and fire.
"The color and texture are very good, even comparable to those fired over an open flame."
Ye Xiu looked at his pottery works one by one and commented.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a high-level pottery figure, young man, your craftsmanship is good, and I'm happy to see your girlfriend."
The gray-haired old man was quite pleased, and with his more than 50 years of experience in making ceramics, he couldn't put down Ye Xiu's ornamental bottle.
Intending to acquire these ceramic figures, the old man frequently made moves to win over Ye Xiu.
"Flutter!" Ye Xiu laughed out loud and glanced back at Yan Yuanyi, the other party's cheeks were flushed, full of shame.
Seeing Ye Xiu's squeezing eyes, Yan Yuanyi twitched the corners of his mouth, and stepped on the other party hard.
Annoyed in my heart: "Seeing that I have been misunderstood, I still see my jokes." ”
[System prompt: The favorability value of the host and Yan Yuanyi is increased by ten.] 】
"Ding-dong, the system is binding a new atmospheric carrier......
An electronically synthesized mechanical sound came into Ye Xiu's ears.
How so? I just had the will, and this system will automatically bind Yan Yuanyi!
A transparent panel hit Ye Xiu's face, and he opened his eyes to take a look.
Host: Ye Xiu

Seeing this scene in front of him, Ye Xiu knew in his heart that he had actually triggered the Heavenly Favor Cultivation System just now.
[But who is this atmospheric transporter, Yan Yuanyi? 】
[It's over, it's actually this trick, it's destined to be cold. 】
"What?" In Yan Yuanyi's mind, a few more voices came into her mind, she was now ignorant, in Ye Xiu's eyes, she herself was so much like a villain, wouldn't she survive the finale?
The black line appeared in Yan Yuanyi's head, but the other party couldn't detect it, it was really hateful!
"Could it be that Ye Xiu has the ability of a prophet and can see through a person's future fate?" An unrealistic thought rose in Yan Yuanyi's heart.
"He's not schizophrenic, I still say I'm a savior!" She said in her heart that in this day and age, you have to believe in science.
No, you should believe in your martial arts.
Yan Yuanyi clenched his fists and looked at his arm, his blood was like a glow.
