Chapter 33: Cleaning the Murals

Guan Ji quickly caught up after making the call, and when he walked to a staircase, he turned around and told Zhang Xiaomao to go back and admit his mistake and apologize, and then the three separated, Guan Ji and Chen Qiong went up the stairs and entered the three-story cave.

The next day, everyone worked overtime until 3 p.m., took down the last piece of mural, packed it and transported it to the warehouse before going out of the hole to the canteen to eat.

After eating, the whole team immediately had to repair and protect the middle mural, because the surface mural used the method of directly plastering grass mud and hemp mud on the original mural and then building adobe, so after the mural was removed, some soil left by the adobe layer was still adhered to the middle mural.

The first step for the restoration team was to remove the soil that adhered to it, and in order to save time, people were assigned to each layer of scaffolding, and the soil was staggered according to the layer, and the soil was cleaned at the same time.

"Do you want to come with me?" When Seki was preparing a repair tool, he suddenly spoke.

Because there are fewer tools used to clear the soil, there is no need to do it, so Chen Qiong, who was still thinking about going to the opposite north wall to see the repair, was instantly stunned, and the others had already taken the tools and put them on the scaffolding, which was said to her.

She shook her head: "I still prefer to watch beauties sweep the dust." ”

"How much I like it."

"I like it anyway."

Guan Ji, who opened the glasses case, just hung the temples in his ears, raised his head when he heard the words, and looked at the opposite side closely, it was difficult to tell whether he was serious in his words, or asked casually: "Do you like to watch dust sweeping or do you like to watch beauties?" ”

Chen Qiong's eyes were white, she stopped messing around, and turned around and walked towards the north wall.

He also put away his playfulness: "I'm asking if you want to go with you to clean up the dirt on the mural on the west wall." ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Qiong slowed down and turned sideways interestingly.

Guan Ji packed up his tools and walked to the west wall: "What to pretend, that's what you think." ”

Chen Qiong hurriedly caught up: "You let me get started, and your brain is okay." ”

Although she said so, she still stood by Guan Ji's side sincerely, rubbing her hands with some expectation, many things are difficult to be interested in, once the interest comes up, she can't help but want to experience it herself, which doesn't care about three seven twenty-one.

"Didn't you say I had a bad brain, what are you doing here?" Guan Ji stopped what he was doing, turned his head to look at the woman beside him, and then raised his chin and pointed to the north wall, "Go over there and watch your beauty sweep the dust." ”

Chen Qiong embarrassedly dodged her gaze, pretending that nothing had happened: "Are you sure I can, if I accidentally destroy the mural, will I have to lose money, will I go to jail?" ”

"I'm not so sure right now."

"I'll just say you're not in a good head."

Guan Ji saw Chen Qiong turn around to leave, stretched out his hand to hold it, and his eyes fell on the work platform next to him: "Go up." ”

"Shut down." Chen Qiong, who calmed down, shook her head firmly, and shouted the man's name with such a serious appearance for the first time since the reunion, which made Guan Ji have a moment of trance, and her face was solemn, "Although I don't know about mural restoration, I still know that even professionals have to apprentice for a long time to get started with this kind of restoration of cultural relics." ”

"I know so well." Guan Jiyan laughed, revealing a disappointed expression that was not neat, but he said meticulously, "Mural restorer is not a cooperative type of work, but a profession that does not work in different categories, and it is necessary to master every step of the restoration skillfully, and to ensure that even if someone leaves during the restoration process, the restoration work can be carried out normally without delay." ”

"So a mural restorer has to work hard to restore it from beginning to end, and I don't want you to restore it from beginning to end, just simply clean the soil on the surface of the mural."

Chen Qiong was still unmoved, with a look of wariness against him.

"Just wanted you to experience it." Guan Ji simply withdrew his hand neatly, "It seems that it is still not reluctant." ”

Chen Qiong, who was itching, finally went to the high platform of work.

Guan Ji threw the mask over: "Put it on." ”

Chen Qiong looked up at the dirt that fell on it, because there would be a lot of dust to eat below, so Guan Ji chose to clean up the bottom piece by herself, and let others clean it up, she took apart the mask and hung the mask on both sides of her ears.

"Take, this is a wooden knife, a tool for scraping dirt." After Guan Ji put on the mask, he gave Chen Qiong the tools in his hand, "Use a wooden knife to gently scrape off the soil adhered to the mural, and finally do the friction removal treatment, you just do the first step." ”

Chen Qiong held the wooden knife used to repair the mural in her hand, and looked at Guan Ji motionless for a long time, it looked simple, but it was difficult to really operate, this was a step that required concentration, carefulness and control, she only scraped twice and stopped.

Although she has been dancing for so many years and has been able to control her body muscles well, because of nervousness, she can't control her hand muscles at all, and she can't control the strength of her hands.

Finally, he sat on the high platform and looked at Guan Ji with relish, but Guan Ji was too focused to notice her gaze at all, but he lowered his head from time to time, took off the gold-rimmed glasses he had worn because of his slight myopia, and reached out to pinch his nose bone to relieve the fatigue caused by excessive concentration of his eyes.

Soon he looked up again and continued to work with the wooden knife in his hand.

Chen Qiong suddenly stretched out his hand towards Guan Ji's head, and before he could take it back, he was frowned by Guan Ji, looking at it a little unhappily, probably blaming her for disturbing his work, and the glasses on the bridge of his nose made his angry appearance look much more gentle.

She glanced lightly, continued to move her hand without fear, took a piece of mud from Guan Ji's hair, and lifted it between the two: "You have this on your head." ”

"Thank you." Guan Ji bent the corners of his mouth and turned his head to continue cleaning up the mural.

Laughing inadequately and perfunctory.

Chen Qiong complained in her heart about Guan Ji's laughter, turned her neck that was extremely sore to the point of being extremely uncomfortable, and sighed, more than two hours have passed, this person is still tireless, and the movements in his hands have not been lazy for more than half a minute, Xu is Guan Ji noticed her movements, and asked her to go down to the activity, and as soon as she was active, she was directly on the north wall until half past six in the afternoon.

The next day, Chen Qiong covered his neck that was still faintly sore, saying that he would not follow Guan Ji to work on the high platform anymore, and Guan Ji, who was too focused yesterday, stood innocently in place and didn't know what to do, thinking that he had offended Chen Qiong, and only understood under the reminder of the restorer on the north wall that "Xiao Chen's neck was going to be broken yesterday".

Guan Ji pursed his lips and asked Chen Qiong: "Then why don't you say it." ”

"You're so serious, I don't want to bother." I just don't want to, not that I don't dare.

Chen Qiong rolled her eyes, and said the second half of the sentence with a smile: "And you are also very good-looking, and you are as good as a beauty." ”

Guan Ji was stunned for a while, the smile that slipped through the corners of his mouth was too fast, and he didn't pay attention to it after returning to normal, and walked straight past Chen Qiong to the west wall, but Chen Qiong behind him laughed silently because of his success.

Wang Liang, who was standing diagonally opposite Chen Qiong, accidentally saw the slight redness on Guan Ji's face, and gave her a thumbs up manually, as if she didn't think it was enough, and gave a thumbs up with her other hand, thinking that these two people must have a play.

When Guan Ji turned around to take the mural data report on the workbench, he happened to see Chen Qiong who walked over to high-five Wang Liang to celebrate, and he sneered: "It seems that you shouldn't be allowed to adapt to the soil and water so quickly, I heard that running to the toilet a few times a day is more conducive to physical and mental health." ”

If it hadn't been for the one just now, he would have almost forgotten that she had always been eccentric.

"Do you regret leaving me?" Chen Qiong raised the corners of her mouth.

"No regrets." Guan Ji looked down at the data in his hand, and retorted back lukewarmly, "I believe that you should be the one who has the least regret staying now." ”

Chen Qiong was silent, now she is indeed a little glad that she stayed, the flywheel effect in psychology says that as long as you stick to many things and survive the node that makes you feel at a loss and collapse the most, everything will slowly get better.

She seems to have survived, with the help of Sekiyo.

"Xiao Chen, it's powerful enough." Wang Liang's sudden compliment caught her off guard.

Chen Qiong, who was dazzled and smiling at the man, looked over: "Uncle Wang, why do you have no head or tail as a boaster, but it also lets me know what I have done, and I can be proud of myself." ”

Wang Liang smiled all over his face and squeezed his eyes: "Let Guan Ji blush." ”

Blush?

Chen Qiong cast a gaze at Guan Ji, obviously there was nothing unusual, even when she looked at her just now, her face was expressionless, and she was speechless to her.

"Uncle Wang can see it, and the roots of his ears are red." Wang Liang helped to prepare the solution to be used to repair the nails of the north wall next, and he was not idle, which was big news in the research institute, "In the past, he was praised by those little girls more ruthlessly than this, but at most he smiled politely, and he didn't take it seriously at all." ”

Chen Qiong seems to understand: "It's probably because I'm praising it for being more fresh and refined." ”

"I don't think so." Wang Liang took the repair solution and sent it over, and spit out the second half of the sentence with a smile, "A man is praised by a woman until he blushes, like a young man who has just fallen in love, what else can you say it is for." ”

"That was Uncle Wang, your time."

"That Guan Ji is still alive in my time."

After Chen Qiong heard it, she almost didn't get angry, so much so that she choked on her throat with saliva, she quickly reached out to cover her mouth, coughed silently a few times, and shook her head for Wang Liang's stubborn childlike laughter, she never thought that Guan Ji would have such a time for herself, because she would blush like a teenager who had just fallen in love when she said something casually, no.

They wouldn't have been together before, how could they be now.

Her mood was still disturbed, and she tried her best to keep a calm smile: "Uncle Wang must have read it wrong." ”

"Probably, I don't have glasses in front of me." Wang Liang, who had just taken off his reading glasses, didn't continue the topic, turned his head and asked something else, "Then Xiao Chen, what do you like, Uncle Wang will introduce you to you, you are not young, and you should be anxious about the next major event in life." ”

The abacus in my heart is to introduce the pass.

"I'm afraid Uncle Wang won't find it."

"Let's talk about it first."

Chen Qiong's eyes bent, and the lying silkworm also appeared, like a crescent moon: "He loves me more than I love him." ”
