Chapter 514: Imitation
The bald old man looked over meaningfully. Master Yun Zu put on a stern face again and placed his hands behind his back as he watched seriously.
“Done.”
By the time Su Cha finished saying the word, the pattern in her hand had already taken shape.
Two pure white clouds floated on the silk cloth. Although the pattern was simple, it exuded a rare spiritual aura.
It was not like the dead atmosphere of ordinary knitted products. Those only made people feel that it was beautiful.
Moreover, it was very difficult to end the seven needles. Master Yun Zu saw that her ending technique used needle and thread to intertwine and press the needle into the pattern. The end of the needle and thread could not be seen at all.
It was rare for the Cloud Ancestor to see such a unique ending.
After comparing the newly embroidered work with the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, Grandmaster Yun could confirm that the two embroidery patterns were the same.
But…
He hesitated and said to Su Cha, “Come with me.”
Of course, Su Cha got up and followed him.
They walked into the inner room, and the old man who looked like a monk followed them slowly.
Su Cha saw him walking with his hands always placed in front of his chest. It was obvious. Su Cha was interested. “Master Fang?”
The bald old man smiled. “You flatter me. I am the Shaolin Monastery’s gatekeeper.”
The Cloud Ancestor turned around and said fiercely, “Don’t listen to his bragging. He can’t even guard the door. He’s just a sweeper.”
Su Cha: “…”
Shaolin Monastery.
If she did not remember wrongly, there were also Shaolin in each sect.
She did not know if this one was an ordinary monk in the temple or…
She lowered her head and smiled when she saw his footsteps.
As expected.
In modern society, many monks were fake. The real ones were low-key.
However, what Su Cha did not expect was that this Cloud Ancestor did not seem like a sage-like embroidery master. Embroidery needed to be done in peace. She could not tell from the Cloud Ancestor’s appearance, but this was the representation of Yun Xiu. Su Cha felt that perhaps this was a genius.
Ancestor Yun brought them into the inner room. The interior was different from the outside. It had an ancient scent. Ancestor Yun walked over and took out a box from a safe beside a table.
He took out the box and opened it. It was an embroidered handkerchief.
Su Cha narrowed her eyes when she saw the embroidery. “Heavenly Cloud Silk?”
The Cloud Ancestor looked at her with admiration. “You know your stuff!”
She recognized the material of the Heavenly Cloud Silk at a glance. It was indeed something.
Su Cha had seen it every day before, how could she not recognize it?
This fabric could be said to be top-notch in the Imperial Palace in the past. When the emperor was buried, he only wore clothes made of Heavenly Cloud Silk, so one could imagine how precious it was.
Although Master Yun Zu had an embroidered handkerchief here, it was not ordinary.
Su Cha could tell at a glance that the design was made with Tang embroidery. It was a red-crowned crane.
It was not a simple one.
Master Yun Zu carefully held the handkerchief. He did not say that he wanted Su Cha to touch it. He just carefully opened it. For a moment, it was as if the red-crowned crane had come alive.
He let Su Cha see the pattern clearly and said directly, “This is one of the most famous Tang embroidery pieces in history. It took me a lot of effort to get my hands on the red-crowned crane. You can tell that it’s famous not because of this picture, but because it was embroidered on the Heavenly Silk. This skill is really something we wors.h.i.+p. How long do you need to embroider this red-crowned crane?”
Su Cha weighed her options. “If it’s exactly the same, two days.”
