"Professor Xu, what did you say?"

Xu Yongnian looked at the painting and said with a serious brow: "What are the characteristics of these Buddha statues he painted?"

"The characteristics? Are they all drawn with ink?"

Xu Yongnian took the young man's head and said, "Look at his face, I've told you what I've told you in class."

"Forgot..."

"It's true. Didn't you notice any characteristics of the face of the Buddha statue he drew?"

"You said this, it seems a little different, it seems a bit flat."

Xu Yongnian shook his head and said, "Eyes of the Zhang family! I have forgotten this? Zhang Sengyou painted Buddha with a short and gorgeous face. The word "玉" does not mean charming, but a kind of healthy body. Look at the lines, and here, this picture is all about this characteristic, so obvious, and so different from the Buddha statues I have seen today, you don't see it?"

The "research monks" brought by Xu Yongnian were also confused. He even talked about this in class?

"You guys, you don't listen to class one by one. It seems that the painter invited by Master Jiwang this time is an extraordinary person. Although this Buddha statue has only a few strokes, the image of compassion for the world makes people feel at ease, with a short and beautiful face but not demonic, and the techniques are transcendent."

"Then let's follow us too?"

Xu Yongnian suddenly remembered that the two of them were walking inside, so he came to his senses and closed the painting, "Come on, hurry up. Xiao Yang, take the bento and mineral water brought by the car. I see, I can't get out in the short time."

"Okay, Professor Yang."

...

...

Zhong Yue followed Ji Wang all the way, and there were murals and Buddha statues in several caves, but they were well preserved and could still see them. Ji Wang just introduced them. Zhong Yue glanced over his eyes and did not stay too much.

"Master Jiwang, Mr. Qiu, wait for us."

"Professor Yang, why are you doing so urgently? Are you planning to not come out of that cave?"

Yang Yongnian smiled and returned the painting to Zhong Yue, saying, "I was really a misunderstanding just now. I thought Mr. Qiu, like those third-rate painters, came to cheat some money. After reading the painting, I realized that he was a master. In this way, I asked Xiao Yang to go to the bento and water. Let's have a snack in the tourist rest area in front. How about it?"

"Wait first, Mr. Qiu and I will repair the broken picture of the sutras in Cave 156. This is the first time I have heard of this way of reading and repairing the sutras. It seems that Mr. Qiu Shan is also very knowledgeable about Buddhist culture."

Zhong Yue smiled, "I dare not, I just combined the residual paintings on the wall from the process of reading the Bible."

"Mr. Qiu, it's just that you can't restore so many places at once?"

Zhong Yue smiled and said, "It's true that it can't be, but it's not suitable to restore murals today. Instead of waiting there, it's better to understand Zen in other caves with Master Jiwang. Master Jiwang, do you think so?" In fact, Zhong Yue had already inquired about it. There are many caves that are areas where tourists stop, so Zhong Yue can follow them to some caves that are not allowed to visit by repairing murals, which is also a convenience.

Yang Yongnian was embarrassed to refuse. He also approved the introduction of the scientific research team. If he was an ordinary person, he would really not be able to enter some grottoes.

Monk Ji Wang also said, "Professor Yang, I think Mr. Qiu's proposal is very good."

"Okay, let's go to the caves of the late Tang Dynasty."

Originally, the only one in Cave 72 of this trip has become a quick look...

"This grotto is a bit damaged, so it is generally closed. Only scientific research will allow you to come in. There are no lighting facilities. Moreover, strong flashlights are not allowed here, which will cause chemical changes in the pigments in these murals to fade, so let's just say some." Yang Yongnian was still very professional in some scientific research and handed over several low-power cold lights to Zhong Yue and Ji Wang.

Several people entered the grotto. In the three arched Buddha caves, there were three Buddhas on the middle and large sides, with eight-sided spires on the top. However, the murals on the surface were almost peeled off and almost nothing was seen.

"We don't step in here, just stand outside and look. The painted ground looks a bit."

Zhong Yue used cold lights to take photos of the ground. Although the drawings on the ground were well preserved, they all looked like a unified pattern, not painted on the pen.

"The damage here is so serious. I can't tell which Buddhas are worshipped here. As for this mural, it is even more difficult to think about what is painted."

"Systemly detected the rare mural "Futian Jingbian", is it included?"

Zhong Yue raised his eyebrows. Futian Sutra Change? He did not answer the systematic questions first, but instead spoke in a questioning tone and asked: "Does Master Jiwang know about the "Futian Sutra Change"?"

""Futian Sutra"? What do you mean, is the Futian Sutra here depicted?" This time, it was not Ji Wang who was talking, but Yang Yongnian behind him asked in a hurry.

Zhong Yue nodded.

"Can you confirm?"

Master Jiwang looked at Zhong Yue and reminded: "Qiushan, among these Mogao Grottoes, most of the murals depict the world of Buddha's kingdom with realistic techniques. Only a few murals with religious themes describe real life. Although these murals have their religious purposes, they are much more direct in understanding and describing reality than a large number of Pure Land Sutras, and have become the Futian Sutras."

Yang Yongnian also said seriously: "At present, there are only two "Futian Sutra Changes" in Cave 296 and Cave 302 in Mogao Grottoes, so if Mr. Qiu says it true, it is really a very important discovery!"

Ji Wang asked, "Is it possible to repair and restore the grotto?" Zhong Yue told Ji Wang that the grotto could be restored to the original appearance of the mural, but even Zhong Yue was not sure about this grotto because it was a mural depicting reality, so there was no scripture as a basis, and the damage was serious, which would inevitably increase the difficulty of repair.

"I'll give it a try."

Yang Yongnian said: "If you want to go in, bring your shoe covers. Since it is not open to tourists, there are no protection measures."

Zhong Yue nodded and said, "Okay."

He brought his shoes and went into the center of the grotto, and Mo Yun Tian and Earth wandered in the grotto. Zhong Yue's advantage over those painters or some cameras is that Mo Yun is his sensitive sense of touch, but it can still carry his consciousness. This is a feature that no camera has.

It is too broken. The murals here are much damaged than the previous cave. Zhong Yue slowly attached the ink rhyme to the mural. However, except for some small figures of the painting walls that can be restored, some large areas of blank space cannot know what it is. Without the story line of the scriptures, and the Futian Sutra with very few practical significance, making it even more difficult to capture the handwriting. Even Zhong Yue opened the ink rhyme under the world, there were no clues.

He looked around for several times, but still couldn't catch any clues. He was about to step out when he suddenly saw that the stone wall was different from the other stone walls, so he walked over, stared at it for a long time, and then walked back.

"How is it? Does Mr. Qiu have a clue?"

Zhong Yue took away Mo Yun Tiandi, took off the shoe cover from his feet, shook his head and said, "I think the mural is difficult to repair, and the damage is too serious."

The young graduate student with an upset look behind him sneered: "Come on, let's go for a waste of time, let's go for a meal."

Ji Wang smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, it doesn't matter. Many professional masters and figures here are helpless. I'll take you here just to take a look."

Zhong Yue held a shoe cover in his hand, looked at the backs of the people who were about to leave, and said lightly: "But there is another world here."

"What!"
