"Teacher, is the inner room your restoration room?"
Lu Yuguo passed by Rize's door and took a curious look at it because it was open. His eyes lit up when he saw it. "Teacher, are you making a pipa?"
"Well, it's a one-to-one replica of the pipa that Mr. Yang found." Chen Yian also finished his meal. He threw away his lunch box and took Lu Yuguo into the inner room.
Several senior students also quickly finished their meal and followed him into the inner room.
Chen Yian picked up the pipa and played it a few times. After listening carefully, he frowned and said, "It's not copied well yet. The sound is always unstable. I don't know if it's the problem with the strings or the back of the instrument."
"Teacher, what kind of wood is the body of this instrument made of?" Lu Yuguo asked while looking at the pipa carefully.
It can be said that the pipa copied by Teacher Chen is very good, and the body of the instrument is also beautifully polished.
But this pipa seemed to be made of fresh wood. Based on his understanding of the pipa, poor or unstable sound quality was almost always caused by using wood that had not been shade-dried.
The best wood for making a pipa is red sandalwood, old mahogany, rosewood, etc. Before making, the wood needs to be placed in a cool place and left for five or six years. This is called drying treatment.
Of course, there are also machines for drying, but it is not as good as natural drying.
"I chose rosewood, the same material as the one Mr. Yang discovered." Chen Yian played the pipa a few more times, but the sound quality was still not good and the resonance was very poor.
"Teacher, do we have no information about the pipa at all?" Lu Yuguo asked.
"Very little. Before I returned to the ancient blue star, there was almost no information about the pipa. The information we have now was all discovered during archaeological excavations over the years." Chen Yian said helplessly.
"Is there no information at all on how to make a lute?"
Lu Yuguo reached out and touched the body of the guitar. The rosewood was very beautiful. In this interstellar age, rosewood is not expensive. If it were in the past, this guitar would have been very valuable.
Seeing that Lu Yuguo seemed to like the pipa very much, Chen Yian handed the pipa to him for a closer look.
He said: "There is very little publicly available information. Perhaps some ancient nobles, wealthy people, or professors and experts have collected some."
Lu Yuguo knew the detailed process of making a pipa, but he had no evidence to prove that he could make it.
As he touched the pipa, he suddenly felt a sense of mission in his heart.
When he came to this world, he was very confused and had no goals. He could only follow the original owner's route.
This feeling was particularly strong when I learned that my favorite pipa had become a lost instrument.
At the same time, he also wanted to do something, but the goal was not clear. Now he has found this goal.
He wants to make the pipa.
Although Lu Yuguo knew that even without him, with the current interstellar technology, the pipa could be completely restored sooner or later, it was just a matter of time, but he just wanted to do it.
Moreover, after making a pipa, someone has to be able to play it. It is not easy to play the pipa for someone who has no basic skills.
What's more, there is probably no one in this world who can play the pipa.
Lu Yuguo is a professional pipa player and he is very familiar with it.
He wanted the people of this world to hear the beautiful sound of the pipa, rather than the effects created by those sound effects.
Having found his goal, Lu Yuguo was no longer confused and his heart was filled with motivation.
He felt that the reason he came to this world was to let the beautiful sounds of the pipa resound throughout the world. At this moment, his sense of mission was very strong.
Lu Yuguo looked at Chen Yian with shining eyes and said, "Teacher, I also want to make a pipa. Can you give me more information about the pipa?"
Chen Yian raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that you like this pipa very much. Okay, I'll give you the information. If you can research something, I'll give you a reward."
He looked at the other students as he spoke, "Are you interested? If you are, I can give you the information."
Several seniors were very interested and asked Professor Chen for information.
This time, Teacher Chen gave Lu Yuguo not only information about the pipa, but also the remaining audio and other information about the incomplete scores that he had promised to let Lu Yuguo study.
"Thank you, teacher."
Lu Yuguo excitedly checked the information. There were many incomplete scores in it. Some of these incomplete scores were so incomplete that nothing could be made out of them.
"Okay, go outside and have a rest. We still have excavation work to do in the afternoon." Chen Yian drove a few people outside and continued to study the pipa.
Lu Yuguo was not in a hurry to read the information in detail. His idea could not be realized in a short time. It was more important to rest now, otherwise his body might not be able to bear it in the afternoon.
After resting for more than an hour, Chen Yian took Lu Yuguo and others to continue excavation work in Pit No. 18.
Perhaps because more people heard the news, more experts and professors came to Pit 18. They were all surprised and excited when they saw so many ancient musical instruments.
At the same time, they also joined in the cleaning and excavation work, which made the cleaning of Pit 18 faster.
By six o'clock in the afternoon, five guqins, eight pipa, three erhu, dozens of various flutes, and some instruments that the professors were completely unfamiliar with had been unearthed from Pit 18.
Lu Yuguo recognized them all, but he was embarrassed to say it out loud.
The excavation team began to wrap up their work. There should be something more under Pit 18, so they will continue excavating tomorrow.
Lu Yuguo also wants to come tomorrow, but unfortunately, he has to attend the blind date party tomorrow. Blind date parties are really harmful. He doesn't want to lose such a good work experience at all.
So Lu Yuguo begged his mentor to take him to the excavation site more often.
Maybe because he performed well today, the tutor agreed to take him whenever he had the chance in the future.
With the instructor's promise, Lu Yuguo happily went to the locker room and took off his work clothes.
After changing his clothes and picking up his backpack, Lu Yuguo went to his instructor's studio, said hello to his instructor, and left.
As soon as he walked out of his tutor's studio, a call came in. He glanced at the terminal and saw it was Fu Chongji.
After answering the call, Fu Zhongji's deep and magnetic voice reached Lu Yuguo's ears: "Xiaoguo, are you back?"
For some reason, Fu Chongji made Lu Yuguo feel as if he had known him for a long time, and even had a little bit of intimacy with him.
Even though they had only known each other for one day, Fu Chongji spoke to him like an old friend.
Lu Yuguo didn't think much about it. He said, "It's almost time. I'll be back soon. Are you planning to treat me to a meal?"
"Well, I'm already at the restaurant. What do you want to eat? I'll order for you," said Mo Yuanshen.
