Located in Russell Square on the north side of New Oxford Street in London, the Britannia Museum is the oldest and most magnificent comprehensive museum in the world, and one of the world's four largest and most famous museums.

From the eighteenth century to the middle of the nineteenth century, the British Empire expanded to the world, plundering the culture of various countries, and a large number of precious cultural relics arrived in London.

Oriental Pavilion, Ouyang Fei walked slowly, mixed in the crowd and looked at the collection one by one, eight or nine out of ten people who came to visit the Oriental Pavilion were Chinese, Ouyang Fei saw pride and anger on the faces of most people.

Of course, Ouyang Fei's feeling at the moment is the same as them, but those ordinary tourists can only be angry, but Ouyang Fei can do something, and he is much stronger than them.

In front of those porcelain or jade objects, Ouyang Fei didn't stop for much, because these things were the least valuable in his eyes, and he could get a lot of them at any time, and his eyes were mainly on those calligraphy and paintings.

Here, Ouyang Fei saw many Chinese national treasure-level calligraphy and paintings, such as the "Dense Forest Stacked Peaks" by Ju Ran, a representative of the Jiangnan School of Painting in the Five Dynasties, the "Visiting Friends with the Qin" by Fan Kuan, one of the three famous landscape painters of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the "Huayan Disguised Picture" by Li Gonglin, a famous painter in the Northern Song Dynasty, and so on.

These pictures are Ouyang Fei's goals, but they are only secondary goals, and their main goals "Yongle Canon", "Green Landscape" and "Ink Bamboo Map" are not exhibited at all.

In the end, Ouyang Fei stopped in front of a painting that was more than two meters long horizontally and more than 20 centimeters wide vertically.

Ouyang Fei stood in front of this painting for a long time, but finally sighed heavily.

"Why is the gentleman sighing?" suddenly came an old female voice behind her, speaking in Chinese.

Ouyang Fei turned around, but saw a Chinese old lady with a kind face and gray hair, smiled at her and nodded, "I'm sighing, I can't see the real female history picture, I didn't expect that the museum would use a fake to exhibit." ”

The old lady showed a sly smile in her eyes and said, "Why does Sir say that this picture is a fake, this is obviously the real thing." ”

Ouyang Fei shook his head with a smile and said, "Grandma, don't lie to me, although I don't read much, I also know that the real female history is drawn in twelve paragraphs, and now there are only nine paragraphs left from 'Feng Yuan blocking the bear' to 'female history priest Zhen dares to sue Shu Ji'." ”

"At that time, due to the lack of knowledge and poor storage of the British side, it was even cut in half and the scum was dropped. ”

"But the picture hanging here now, although it is also nine paragraphs, is a complete volume, and the whole picture scroll is as perfect as new, how can it be genuine?"

The old grandmother shook her head and said firmly, "Grandma didn't lie to you, this is the real thing." ”

Ouyang Fei didn't want to bother with this old lady too much, so he asked directly, "Then please tell me, why is this picture like this?"

The old grandmother had a look of pride on her face, raised her head slightly, and said, "Because it was repaired by me." ”

"Repair?" Ouyang Fei was stunned, looked at the old grandmother with a hint of respect, and asked slightly respectfully, "Are you ......?"

The old grandmother looked at Ouyang Fei, showed a kind smile, and said, "My name is Qiu Jinxian, and I am a restorer of ancient Chinese paintings, but those people in China call me 'Langzhong of ancient paintings'." ”

"I have been here for 30 years, and in these 30 years, I have restored more than 200 ancient paintings, including more than 100 Dunhuang paintings, and one of the most proud things in my life is to restore this female history map. ”

Ouyang Fei looked at the old grandmother in surprise, an ancient painting restorer, this is a profession that requires very deep painting skills.

To restore ancient paintings, the restoration method should be determined according to the age, material and degree of damage of the work, and the same age and material should be used to repair as much as possible.

And according to the original warp and weft of the scroll to fill in and fill the color, but also to have a very in-depth understanding of the techniques and styles of different dynasties of ancient Chinese paintings.

It can be said that a top painter may not be able to become a restorer of ancient paintings, but a restorer of ancient paintings must be a top painter.

"Thirty years......? Why is that? At the level at which you can even restore a picture of a female historian, if you paint a few paintings yourself, you will surely become a work of inheritance, right?"

"Alas......" Qiu Jinxian's grandmother looked gloomy, sighed deeply, and said, "Manpower is sometimes poor, how many masterpieces can I make in my life?"

"Besides, if my paintings want to become real heirlooms, it will have to be at least a few hundred years later, but there are hundreds of these ancient paintings, and these are my heirloom treasures in China!"

"These Brits, they don't know how to restore and maintain these ancient Chinese paintings, if these heirloom treasures are not saved, they will rot into garbage, I repair one more, the world will have one more treasure." ”

"There is no problem that the ancient paintings that have been restored by me will survive for a few hundred years, although I am also very angry about these treasures staying in other countries, but what can I do?"

"I can only do my best to preserve these paintings for hundreds of years, and I believe that one day, these treasures will return to the bosom of the motherland. ”

After listening to Qiu Jinxian's grandmother's words, Ouyang Fei suddenly stood in awe of this selfless old man in China, this is a spirit, a spirit of China, such a spirit is worthy of the admiration of any Chinese person.

Ouyang Fei bowed deeply to Grandma Qiu Jinxian and said, "Thank you, Grandma, thank you for everything you have done for Huaxia." ”

After saying this, Ouyang Fei secretly used his internal strength, gathered his voice into a line, and reached the ears of Qiu Jinxian's grandmother, "I promise you that in your lifetime, these treasures will definitely return to the embrace of the motherland." ”

Qiu Jinxian's grandmother's expression moved, and the sound formed by the condensed sound into a line was very different from the voice that came out of her mouth, she heard something strange in an instant, and her heart was surprised and happy, and she stepped forward to help Ouyang Fei as if nothing happened, and said, "Good boy, get up quickly." ”

After approaching Ouyang Fei, Grandma Qiu Jinxian said softly, "Little comrade, is there anything I can help with?"

Ouyang Fei got up, turned around and walked to the side casually, gathered his voice again, and said, "This is not the place to talk, grandma left me an address, and I will go to you if necessary." ”

"Good. Grandma Qiu Jinxian agreed, and then said in a normal volume, "Good boy, are you here to study in the UK?"

"No, I'm an immigrant. ”

"Oh......"

When Ouyang Fei left, he had an extra sticky note with an address in his pocket, and then he drove back to the town of Merfa.
