Chapter 848 - Prepared To Meet The Challenge (1/2)

What could Wu Hai do even if he was very angry? Did he dare to challenge Yuan Zhou?

The answer was no, he didn’t. So, Yuan Zhou was fearless.

“Eat first and talk later,” said Yuan Zhou immediately when he found Wu Hai wanted to say something again.

On hearing that, Wu Hai clammed up. He took the chopsticks and began to eat in silence.

Yuan Zhou believed he was quite a considerate man. Even if he was eager to ask for advice, he would rather wait until he finished the meal first.

Therefore, Yuan Zhou prepared to taste the Sweet And Spicy Noodles in front of him earnestly.

The Sweet And Spicy Noodles were in a paper bowl. Yuan Zhou stirred the noodles with his chopsticks making them all covered with the bright red chili oil. There were even some fragments of peanuts on the noodles.

The white thick noodles, along with the chili oil as well as some fragments of peanuts, emitted a blast of soy sauce-like aroma, making the noodles look appetizing.

Yuan Zhou directly picked up some noodles with his chopsticks and stuffed into his mouth to eat.

“Slurp Slurp.” The noodles tasted quite chewy and firm.

As it took longer to chew up the noodles, the taste of the chili oil got more obvious in the mouth and the spicy taste rushed straight down his throat. But in the meantime, the fragrance of the peanuts also came out. Consequently, the pure spiciness turned into a spicy aroma. Along with the aroma of soy sauce, the taste of the Sweet And Spicy Noodles was quite abundant.

“Well, the noodles really taste good,” said Wu Hai with puzzlement.

“Um. If the thickness of the noodles is more uniform, they would taste better,” Yuan Zhou swallowed up the noodles in his mouth, nodded his head and then said.

A bowl of Sweet And Spicy Noodles wasn’t much. After all, these noodles were originally a kind of snack used to allay one’s hunger. Therefore, the amount wasn’t much.

To Wu Hai, it was just a matter of reaching out the chopsticks twice to get the noodles. And to Yuan Zhou who prepared to taste the noodles earnestly, it was a matter of reaching out his chopsticks for two more times.

After they ate up the noodles, they got to the point. Yuan Zhou straightened his back and got seated seriously while Wu Hai leaned against the curved long table and looked at Yuan Zhou at the side.

“How do you draw clouds?” Yuan Zhou asked point-blank.

“Easy. Just draw as randomly as you can. Don’t give it too many limitations. Anyway, you can never imagine the specific shape of the cloud even if you are good at drawing,” said Wu Hai without thinking too much.

“Draw randomly without limitations?” Yuan Zhou muttered in a dull and flat style, but Wu Hai still recognized the doubt contained therein.

“Yeah. To be frank, just draw it as free as you like. You can’t request the cloud for a specific shape. The line of the cloud you sculpt is too stiff and you always do your utmost to make the cloud look graceful. I can tell you responsibly the cloud itself definitely doesn’t know it’s so graceful.” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and appeared quite earnest, though his pose didn’t look so.

On hearing that, Yuan Zhou started thinking.

“With regards to painting, you can repeat what the book says or learn from your master step by step at the beginning. But when it comes to the latter part, you can rely on nobody but yourself. Of course, talent is also indispensable,” said Wu Hai.

Yuan Zhou nodded his head. On this point, he couldn’t agree with Wu Hai more.

Right now, the system was like a top-level great master, who taught Yuan Zhou diligently on various dishes. But Yuan Zhou had nothing to rely on but his efforts and continuous practice to integrate his skills and eventually master this dish.

So even if the system was really inconsiderate to him sometimes, Yuan Zhou still took it as his master.

“I know nothing about sculpting, but painting never starts with lines. Clouds have no lines.” Wu Hai shrugged.

“No lines and no frame.” Yuan Zhou repeated and then, he suddenly saw the light inwardly.

That’s true. The shape of clouds depended on the wind. How could clouds have a fixed line? If he practiced that way, he would have gone the wrong way.

“It seems that I thought too much.” Yuan Zhou revealed a smile on his face. He had gotten some ideas about how to sculpt the dragons.

“Alright. I’m leaving.” Wu Hai actually knew how to behave in a delicate situation. He looked at Yuan Zhou’s manner and immediately knew he had understood. Without saying anything, he straightforwardly left.
