Chapter 157: Eight Arms and Eight Eyes
As Xiang Kun began to carve carefully, slowly carved the fine blanks, and polished them, the whole picture and details of the wood carving slowly became clear.
This palm-sized humanoid wood sculpture has eight eyes in addition to eight arms, two rows on a bald head, and a row of fangs can be seen in the open mouth, but it is wearing a sleeveless blazer, and the lower body is suit trousers and large scalp shoes.
This is the fear projection that appeared when Xiang Kun faced Guo Tianxiang before after being affected by his ability to "establish his own fear projection".
The projection of fear he saw at that time was much richer in detail and much more hideous and terrifying, and his whole body was covered with all kinds of ugly sarcomas, and he was extremely disgusting.
Naturally, the clothes were all bursting, and there were no shoes on the feet, all of which were hideous and thick limbs and sarcomas.
That's the monster image he fears he's mutated and turned into.
The palm-sized boxwood carving in his hand looks very naturally beautified.
This small wood carving looks several sizes smaller than the saber carved by Tang Baona before, but in fact, the difficulty is not small at all, just the eight arms, it is a great difficulty, and it is easy to mess up with an electric drill and an electric carving machine, not to mention that he uses hand tools.
If you haven't carved saber before, you will carve this directly, and you will almost 100% fail a few times first.
And now it is actually done at one time, and it is still carved with wood that has not established a supersensory connection, to be honest, Xiang Kun himself is very surprised, so he is naturally quite satisfied.
After careful and meticulous polishing, after finally completing the wood carving, Xiang Kun found that it was already bright outside, and the canary "Golden Shining" had flown over to say hello once, and now the time was more than two o'clock in the afternoon.
Before I knew it, I was obsessed with carving for more than ten hours.
Looking at this finished monster with eight arms and eight eyes, Xiang Kun was really a little reluctant to give it away.
Thinking about it carefully, he suddenly couldn't remember why he chose to carve this monster that he had established a fear projection and illusion, as if he wanted to make an "original" image at that time, so he unconsciously carved this thing?
It seems that for him now, there is no longer the fear that he will become such a monster in his heart?
Where does this sense of certainty come from?
Xiang Kun moved his neck and shoulders, checked the information on the computer and mobile phone, and found that the netizen who had worked with him before and outsourced work for him had sent another message.
"Boss, do you have a regular project to work on now?"
After looking at the time of his message, Xiang Kun replied: "No, what's wrong, there is a job to introduce?"
The last time I cooperated, it was quite pleasant, the other party gave money refreshingly, and he was also a knowledgeable person, and he would not be a senseless question**WW, saving him a lot of effort.
"Big guy, are you interested in coming to Pengcheng to help me bring a project......? The basic salary is...... In the end, depending on the effect of completion, the owner will have an additional bonus, in the case of my cooperation with the owner, the other party is still very generous, as long as the completion is not too bad, the bonus is basically more than 30% of the salary. ”
After listening to the other party's introduction, Xiang Kun was actually a little excited, but if he wanted to go to Pengcheng, it would be more painful, his situation, it was difficult to go to work, not to mention that he had to bring a project. I can't contact anyone for 25 hours a week, I don't have to eat when I work overtime at the company, these are all troubles, so I have to refuse.
"I'm sorry, I only take on outsourced work, and if you can let me build a local team to do it, maybe I can do it. Xiang Kun said, in fact, he doesn't have any hope, like the other party said this kind of project, the investment is so large, generally set up their own team, even if you want to outsource, you must find the kind of local more reliable company or team, more convenient for detailed communication and future maintenance, expansion. Since the other party is in Pengcheng, this kind of company is not too easy to find.
"That's right...... I'll talk to them about that, but I don't think it's likely to say yes. The reply from the other side was not what Xiang Kun expected.
"Well, okay. By the way, let me ask again, why did they choose me to lead that project? The project that my former company did was not the same type as theirs. ”
"The job I asked you to do last time, it is also the owner of them, they have a director in charge of technology, full of praise for what you do, especially the code you write, the logic is clear, concise and clear, there are not many comments, but it can make people understand quickly, he said that reading your code is very pleasant......"
Xiang Kun was speechless, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only send a panda rolling thanks expression.
......
On October 24, after Tang Baona went to Xiang Kun's house alone to eat a rabbit meat dinner last time, six days later, she and Yang Zhen'er, who had returned from travel, came to the door as a guest and ate six dishes and one soup prepared by Xiang Kun for them.
After eating, the three of them played cards for a while, because they had to get up early tomorrow, and Tang Baona and Yang Zhen'er went back before ten o'clock.
In the car, Tang Baona played with the eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving, a little in love, although this wood carving can be said to be a little ugly and even hideous, but I don't know why, she looks at it with a strange sense of harmony.
"What kind of anime character is this? Why haven't I seen it? The octopus man in One Piece only has six arms! And these eight eyes look weird, I'm going to commit a dense phobia......" Yang Zhen'er, who drove the car out of the parking space, glanced at the palm-sized wood carving in the hand of his friend in the passenger seat, and said curiously.
"I asked him, and he said he was thinking about it. ”
"Eight arms and eight eyes of blind thought? Well, I'll go back and ask Lao Xia if it means anything in psychology. ”
Tang Baona looked at the wood carving in her hand, and actually didn't want to give it to her grandfather: "Is this called art?"
Yang Zhen'er suddenly remembered something, and said with some contempt: "By the way, the bird that is a fine in the chef's house is actually called 'Golden Shining'? You took it, right? You bad guy!"
When he was at Xiang Kun's house, he showed the two of them an interaction with "Jin Shining", which shocked Yang Zhen'er, and called this bird a refinement, not only Xiang Kun could understand and understand the meaning of the bird's expression, but that bird could also understand the meaning of Xiang Kun's random movements and sounds, which was really unreasonable.
And in addition to the titles of "archery genius", "cooking genius" and "wood carving genius", Xiang Kun also has the title of "bird language master", which makes her really reluctant to believe it.
"Don't you think the name 'Golden Shining' is very appropriate?" said Tang Baona proudly.
"I believe you're a ghost!" Yang Zhen'er said, but she couldn't help licking her lips and sighed: "Chef Xiang's cooking skills are really getting better and better, not only the rabbit meat, the plate of mutton, and the pork chops, are also very delicious......! I feel like what I imagined these dishes to taste like, and they really tasted...... No, it tasted better than I expected, because no matter how high my expectations were, there were still surprises when I ate it. If he wants to open a restaurant, I must bankrupt my family and buy individual stocks. He's really in the wrong business, what programming to learn, what IT to do, he's made himself bald, hum, if he started learning to cook ten years ago, he is estimated to be a real top chef by now. Alas, Nana, you just use your strength to take down Chef Xiang, it will be much more convenient for me to rub your food in the future......"
"Take you big-headed ghost!Drive seriously!Don't make fun of me!" Tang Baona glanced at her, but frowned a little and said: "But the taste of the dry pot rabbit meat today doesn't feel as delicious as last time, and the taste is heavy." ”
If Xiang Kun heard this, he wouldn't think it was strange, it wasn't that his understanding of Tang Baona's tastes and preferences had regressed, or that the taste of the dishes he made was unstable, but that today's dry pot rabbit meat was prepared for Yang Zhen'er, and naturally her taste was aggravated.
It stands to reason that friends who often eat together should have the same tastes slowly, but Tang Baona and Yang Zhener have lived together for so long, and the taste gap is still not small, which makes Xiang Kun a little tired every time he cooks for the two of them at the same time. It is necessary to distinguish which of the dishes are mainly adapted to whose tastes. 8)
