Chapter 147: Restoration of the Listening Song Diagram
Xue Changqing had hardly slept a solid sleep this month, and seeing that there were more and more mildew spots and cracks on the Tingsong map, he was so anxious that his mouth foamed. Especially in the past week, I don't feel like I have any taste when I eat, and I stare at Songtu in the study every day and sigh for a long time.
Xue Lin couldn't see it, and persuaded him to give the painting to Su Yi, but his self-esteem was so bad that he couldn't pull his face down, so I begged that arrogant boy, I would rather rot this painting. The extremely stubborn Xue Changqing said.
In fact, speaking of Xue Changqing and Su Yi's holiday, it was nothing more than Su Yi pointing out that Xue Changqing's collection of fakes slapped Xue Changqing's face at the Xue Mansion, and the second was Su Yi's "you are all garbage" scolding battle on the forum.
Arrogant, arrogant, and unsightly. This is the label that Xue Changqing put on Su Yi.
Except for the impression, Xue Changqing still agrees with Su Yi's restoration level very much, he has gone to see the portrait of the ancestor of the Shangqing Palace, it is as old as the old, as a famous calligraphy and painting master in the country, he can't see a flaw, which can only show that Su Yi's calligraphy and painting restoration level has really reached a very high level, a realm that even he can't see.
But even so, Xue Changqing still had no intention of handing over Tingsongtu to Su Yi for repair, first, because he had a bad impression of Su Yi, and secondly, he was afraid that he would lose face if Su Yi refused. As for looking for Xue Lin to rub it together, he didn't even think about it, it was a disguised submission, and he couldn't afford to lose that person.
Four days ago, Xue Changqing found that Tingsongtu had three more mildew, and he was really anxious, this is a national treasure, and it must not be destroyed in his own hands.
Locked himself in the study for a morning, Xue Changqing, who had quit smoking for many years, smoked a whole pack of cigarettes, and between the preservation of national treasures and face, he finally made a choice, gave up his son, and came to Su Yi.
Xue Changqing found Wen Yaxuan according to the address, but found that the door of the store was locked, and just as he was hesitating whether to wait, he turned around and saw Su Yi standing in front of him.
"Old man, why are you here?" asked Su Yi with a pretended look of surprise.
Although he has no good impression of Xue Changqing, who has a stinky and hard temper, after all, he is Xue Lin's grandfather, and at least he has to be respected.
"I ......" Xue Changqing's old face turned grim, and he pointed to the plaque of Wen Yaxuan, "Who are you Su Qinghai?"
When Su Yi heard this, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes: "Old man, do you know my grandfather?"
"Hmph, your skills are better than him!" Before Su Yi could understand the meaning of Xue Changqing's words, Xue Changqing stuffed the painting tube in his hand into Su Yi's arms, "I lost this painting to you in chess, and now I sent it to you, I don't owe each other, I'm leaving!"
No, what is this, why can't I understand?" "No, old man......" Su Yi turned around and was about to ask Xue Changqing what was going on, but Xue Changqing had already boarded a black car parked at the door and left directly.
"Damn, what a weirdo!" Seeing that the car was gone, Su Yi muttered back to the store, opened the painting tube and took out the painting, unfolded it to take a look, and was stupid at the time, I damn it, listen to Songtu?
Su Yi looked at it carefully, it was exactly the same as the photo Xue Lin had sent to him, and he was even more puzzled, he actually gave such a valuable thing to himself? Isn't this his lifeline? The old man can't be crazy, right?
Because things were too weird, Su Yi called Xue Lin, but unfortunately the other party was not in the service area, so he had to give up.
The painting is a good painting, but the degree of damage has reached 60%, and many mildew spots mixed with cracks occupy most of the whole painting, Su Yi speculated with his own experience that at most, the painting will have to become a pile of waste paper in a month.
There are not many paintings of Li Tang that have been handed down to the world, among which the most famous ones are the picture of Cai Wei, the picture of the pine wind of Wan Qi and the pine wind of the Yan Temple, among which the picture of Cai Wei is the most famous, which is now in the collection of the Palace Museum.
But in Su Yi's opinion, this picture of listening to the pine is more precious than the picture of Cai Wei, because this is Li Tang's work before he changed his painting style, not to mention the great significance, this may be the only early work of Li Tang in the world, if this painting is auctioned, it will definitely be worth tens of millions, which is exactly what Su Yi doesn't understand, such a valuable thing, this old man threw it to himself so easily?
I can't care so much, after following my grandfather to repair paintings for many years, Su Qinghai's idea of protecting cultural relics has already imperceptibly penetrated into Su Yi's bones, and now even if Xue Changqing comes back to ask Su Yi for this painting, Su Yi will repair the Tingsong picture.
If this work is really rotten in his own hands, Su Yi doesn't know if his grandfather will crawl out of the grave and smoke himself to death, not to mention, his conscience will not allow it, this is not hypocrisy, the things left by the ancestors are gone, but they are really gone.
Anyway, there was nothing valuable in the store, so Su Yi rolled up the words and went straight back to the studio in the back.
The family originally did this business, and there were all kinds of painting tools, potions, and cleaning agents, but this was not enough, Su Yi found hydrogen peroxide, alum, and borax, and poured a special resin powder that was not commonly used into it, blended it according to a certain amount, and finally mixed it into a translucent liquid.
This liquid is called Shuhua liquid, and when he helped Xuan Zhen Lao Dao repair the portrait of the ancestor in the Shangqing Palace, he earned five hundred points at once, and the system rewarded Su Yi with a set of calligraphy and painting restoration skills and recipes.
The soothing liquid is one of the calligraphy and painting repair formulas, which has an extremely significant effect on mildew and cracking.
Out of habit, Su Yi still took out his mobile phone to call up the god-level P-map system and took a picture of the listening map, the god-level P-map system locks in various repair functions, but the basic function of photography can still be used.
The photo was successfully stored in the system, but no prompt appeared. Su Yi shook his head with a wry smile, put his phone aside, and officially began to listen to the restoration work of Songtu.
After adjusting the soothing liquid, Su Yi spread the listening song diagram on the table, turned on the table lamp, continued to go through the calligraphy and painting framing restoration work obtained from the system in his mind, took a deep breath, covered the painting center with fine gauze, and picked up the watering can filled with cleaning agent to spray the painting center evenly, which is the first step in repairing calligraphy and painting: washing the painting.
According to the conventional repair method, the lead part can be wiped with 5% hydrogen peroxide, and the black mold is relatively easy to eliminate, while the red mold needs to be removed with potassium permanganate or oxalic acid water, and sometimes it even needs to be repeated several times, so that the paper silk will be damaged, and sometimes the gains outweigh the losses.
The soothing liquid prepared by Su Yi will not have this problem, it can naturally decompose mildew, and has an extended covering and repair effect on the surface fracture of calligraphy and painting.
Restoring calligraphy and paintings is the most windy, so Su Yi closed the doors and windows tightly.
Half an hour later, when the painting heart was half dry, Su Yi took the fine brush and evenly brushed the soothing liquid on the gauze, which took the longest time, and it took Su Yi a full twenty minutes to finish the painting with a length of three feet and a half feet wide.
After brushing the soothing liquid, Su Yi wiped a handful of fine sweat from his forehead, and after carefully checking it and finding no mistakes, he carefully opened the door and walked out.
It takes an hour for the soothing liquid to dry, and you have to brush it at least three times before it is completed. In other words, Su Yi didn't have to do anything else in the afternoon.
