There seems to be a destiny between Xue Fan and Cave No. 0. It was also because of Cave No. 0 that year Xue Fan gave up going abroad and decided to stay in Dunhuang. He told Hu Xiangsheng, did you know that in Cave No. 0?

There is a kind of magic that draws you to stay and guard it, never wanting to leave.

That year, Hu Xiangsheng was full of enthusiasm and was one of the most promising and promising among the Dunhuang restorers. The one ahead of him was Xue Fan.

Hu Xiangsheng intends to tell everyone about Xue Fan's incident today. After all, it is related to Cave No. 0, and after all, something happened again in Cave No. 0.

"At first, I was very opposed to Xue Fan taking over the restoration work of Cave 0," he said with a heavy sigh.

Hu Xiangsheng and Xue Fan were partners in work, and friends who talked about everything in life. They were also the pillars of the younger generation of mural restorers at that time. The work of cultural relic restoration has always been hard, especially the restoration of murals, which was like a professional in the palace.

No matter how poor the conditions are, teachers who are engaged in cultural relic restoration can still live in warm winters and cool summers, but they are not. They have to endure whatever conditions are in the caves. Hu Xiangsheng and his generation of restorers have a much harder time than the younger generation today.

Xue Fan and Hu Xiangsheng came from the same school, but Xue Fan had a stubborn temper. The master who led them knew that they could not be persuaded, so he discussed with Hu Xiangsheng and asked Hu Xiangsheng to do Xue Fan's ideological work. The master was also thoughtful and engaged in the restoration of Dunhuang murals.

There are only a few people, so it is not easy to train an excellent restorer. The existing grottoes in Dunhuang are being eroded by wind and sand every day, and large areas of murals are seriously damaged. It is time to hire people.

"Cave No. 0 is not integrated with other caves in terms of location and style. In addition, the interior is indeed seriously damaged, so generally speaking, we will focus on what can be repaired first."

But Xue Fan insisted on going his own way. After he completed the murals he was responsible for before, he devoted all his enthusiasm to Cave No. 0, and even lobbied Hu Xiangsheng to join. For Hu Xiangsheng, the reason why he opposed Xue Fan taking over Cave No. 0 was completely

It was because of the master's words and the current situation, but later, he was indeed persuaded by Xue Fan. For the restorer, using his hands to transform a dilapidated grotto into a new one is an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

Cave No. 0 was not taken seriously at that time, so only three people entered the cave.

"I, Xue Fan and one of his apprentices." Hu Xiangsheng said softly, "When there is a shortage of manpower, it is already a very luxurious situation for three restorers to be in the same cave. But gradually, we discovered 0

Something is wrong with the cave."

The first thing that was wrong was what Hu Xiangsheng said. Feitian was moving, crying could be faintly heard, and Xue Fan's apprentice also heard the sound of pipa. But all this is not a problem for the restorer, it is just a few

reason.

The important thing is that these strange phenomena only occurred when the cave was opened, and everything went as usual when they entered the cave and started working.

Xue Fan was obsessed with the restoration of Cave No. 0, so he stayed in the cave almost day and night. He quickly grasped the situation in the cave and proposed a restoration plan for the content of the murals in the cave. There were many unclear things.

He can also make accurate judgments on the content of murals.

As time went by, the strangeness of Cave No. 0 was forgotten by them. At least in Hu Xiangsheng's view, Cave No. 0 was no different from other caves in Dunhuang, but it was not necessarily an ordinary cave...

"Difficult to repair." Hu Xiangsheng emphasized these two words.

Regardless of Xue Fan or Hu Xiangsheng, even the young apprentices brought into the cave by Xue Fan had many years of repair experience. However, when they started repairing, they found that it was always difficult, either because the paint was wrong or the tools were not suitable.

In short, I obviously felt that I was very confident, but after I got started, various situations occurred, as if there was some kind of force in the dark that was stopping me.

"But even so, Xue Fan still completed part of the restoration work." When Hu Xiangsheng said this, there was no proud look on his face, but a dull look on his face.

Xiao Ye felt excited, "Is this the part we have completed now?"

"Yes." Hu Xiang's voice was deep.

Shen Yao was surprised, "Looking at it this way, Professor Xue Fan's restoration progress is very fast."

It was very fast, because no one in Liuxi Wanzi, not even Qi Yu, could match Xue Fan's obsession with Cave No. 0.

Sheng Tang thought for a while and said, "For all cave murals, we will give a restoration order according to their value and difficulty, so the condition of the murals that Professor Xue saw before the restoration was actually the same as ours."

This may sound like nothing at first, but if you analyze it carefully, it will send chills down your spine.

There are no stupid people here. After careful consideration of Shengtang’s words, they all suddenly understood. Shen Yao was excited and said, “Isn’t it right?”

Sheng Tang asked Hu Xiangsheng, "Professor, is it what I thought?"

Hu Xiangsheng looked solemn and nodded, "Yes."

In a normal grotto, the value of the murals is there, so the order of restoration is fixed. If no accident occurs, no matter how many years pass, as long as the restorer judges based on value, the order of restoration will definitely not change.

But Cave No. 0 is not a normal cave.

In Hu Xiangsheng's words, what they are repairing now is the part that Xue Fan has repaired before. So the question is, why did the repaired mural part become dilapidated after many years after the grotto was reopened? Why does everything look like Doesn't it look like it has been repaired?

Or, after Cave No. 0 is closed, everything inside will return to its original state?

If this is the case, what force prompted such a change?

If you cannot think carefully, you will be afraid.

So Jiang Zhi's reaction just now was not groundless. He just thought of this and said, "It's impossible."

No matter who thinks about it, it seems impossible.

Hu Xiangsheng spoke slowly, "We all thought everything was going well, but we didn't expect that what awaited us would be an unforeseen disaster, especially for Xue Fan." He raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Zhi, "The walls of the grotto have changed, just overnight. During this time, everything inside became different from before.”

Jiang Zhi pursed his lips and looked serious.

"Like quicksand, the surrounding murals change at any time and at any time. It is impossible to repair it and there is no way to start repairing it." Hu Xiangsheng added.

Naturally, Xue Fan was the first to notice the abnormality in the grotto. The young apprentice who was following him screamed in fright. Although Xue Fan was not panicked, he was obviously stunned by what happened in the cave.

That night, Xue Fan did not go to the grotto, but went to have a drink with Hu Xiangsheng. At that time, the Shazhou Night Market had not yet taken shape, and it was not renamed the Shazhou Night Market. It was a spontaneously formed market among the people. At night, they set up a stall casually, ordering peanuts and cutting them. Mutton and a pot of wine make it the most luxurious midnight snack.

Xue Fan drank a lot that day and drunkenly said to Hu Xiang: Cave 0 is nothingness. Don't believe your eyes. What you see is not real.

But that day Hu Xiangsheng told him that I wanted to be transferred to another cave, and the hospital had approved the application.

Xue Fan was stunned at first, then laughed loudly, said two good words, and then smashed the wine bottle in his hand on the ground: Hu Xiangsheng, I really belong to you! After tonight, you can go your own way, and I will pass.

my bridge.
