Monster Apartment

Chapter 72: It's still happier to have someone with you than to be alone

Views:

Gu Bai is a very dedicated and responsible person. For example, he never defaults on his homework, and he never delays the group due to personal reasons when doing group homework.

Naturally, he couldn't choose to ask for leave just because he didn't sleep well last night.

It's just that he also knows very well that his mental state of being a god while walking is not suitable for him to ride a small electric donkey on the road at all.

Si Yiming tilted his head and glanced at Gu Bai in the passenger seat.

Gu Bai is now hunched on the chair, holding his bulging black backpack. Today, there is a lot of food in the backpack. The reason is naturally because he didn't get up to practice at dawn, and now he is very hungry. , can only be added forcefully.

But besides being hungry, he was also sleepy.

Si Yiming saw Gu Bai holding a pear, while mechanically nibbling at it, while his head secretly dozed little by little.

Several senior brothers looked at each other as they watched their younger junior brother sleepwalking as if they were sent over by the big guy who could only be seen on TV and financial news pages on weekdays.

Si Yiming said simply: "Gu Bai didn't rest well last night, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It's alright, it's alright." The senior senior brother in charge waved his hands again and again, exchanged a few words with Si Yiming and then sent the person away. He saw the junior junior brother who had put the backpack in the studio and ran out again, humming around. The escalator that has not yet started is running up and down.

"... Gu Xiaobai, what are you doing?"

Gu Bai replied, "Walk around to wake up."

Senior brother in charge: "..."

Fine.

Their task today is not too heavy. In addition to purchasing raw materials, it is to paint a layer of latex paint on the walls first, and then fill up the ones that should be smoothed.

Gu Bai wanted to follow him to buy materials, because although he was not as tall as his seniors, his strength was definitely the greatest in the entire team. It was definitely the most appropriate to help with materials or do other strength work.

However, his proposal was rejected by the brothers.

The brothers asked with concern why Gu Bai didn't rest well. After getting the answer that it was because he had a terrible nightmare, they looked at Gu Bai's pale face, and simply put Gu Bai in the group that applied the primer. inside.

Gu Bai obeyed the organization and sent off the seniors who were going to buy. He obediently went back to the studio and took two large jars of latex paint.

On three walls, two people were left to paint.

Gu Bai and his senior brother reported a large pile of newspapers from the studio, spread them on the floor under the wall, and also covered the edge of the escalator with a layer of handrails.

This is to avoid accidentally smudging other areas when painting or tinting the walls.

When the newspapers were all laid out, Gu Bai took the initiative to move the small ladder out, grabbing the two walls that required a small ladder to get to the top, and after being robbed, the senior brother turned his head three times and reminded him to be careful. When he showed a bright smile.

Senior brother watched him laugh for a while, then he opened the paint can and said, "Are you in a good mood today?"

Gu Bai touched his face, and realized that his expression might not be concealed from his senior brother who is keen on details. He touched his nose a little embarrassedly: "Well... I'm very happy."

The senior brother looked up at the little junior brother sitting on the small ladder, looking at his shy but very bright Xinyue, he couldn't help but smiled.

Humans are always very easily infected by the emotions of others, whether positive or negative, so most humans prefer to get along with people who love to laugh. For those who work hard, they are always subconsciously tolerant. and love.

Take Gu Bai, for example, his smile is particularly contagious, his happiness is always simple and bright, even if there are two more pieces of meat in the lunch box, his eyebrows and eyes will twitch with joy.

Brother moved his shoulders twice, took out a few high-power lamps and turned them on for lighting. He picked up the brush and shook it. After confirming that there was no debris, he dipped the brush into the paint bucket.

"What's so happy about it?" he asked as he brushed.

Gu Bai was also painting the wall over there, and when he heard him ask, he felt even more embarrassed.

"It just feels..." Gu Bai's voice wasn't loud, but he could still hear it very clearly in the empty and quiet space. "It just feels like... It's really much happier to have someone to accompany you than to be alone."

"Of course." The senior brother smiled a little bigger, he thought Gu Bai was referring to the pleasure of working with them, "It's lonely when you're alone, no matter what, you have to make a few more friends and make appointments from time to time. Just go out to eat, drink, and play."

Gu Bai thought about it, it seems that he often goes out to eat, drink and play with Mr. Si.

No problem.

Gu Bai painted paint happily, chatting with his senior brother.

On weekdays, they were quite quiet when they were painting, but my senior brother said that he was worried that Gu Bai would fall asleep while he was drawing on the little ladder, which would lead to a tragedy, so he would say a few words from time to time, lest Gu Bai was really sleepy and overturned.

This time, a lot of materials were used. By noon, the walls were all painted, and the senior brothers in charge of purchasing did not come back.

Gu Bai and his senior brother ordered takeout, and Gu Bai also donated the fruit he brought.

After painting the walls and drying, it's time to start drafting. The materials haven't been purchased yet, so it doesn't affect them making drafts first.

For this job, Gu Bai couldn't snatch it from his senior brother.

There were five people in the team project this time, and the other four painted the two walls separately, and Gu Bai was responsible for a wall of about six square meters. In terms of construction period, Gu Bai's task was very heavy.

In particular, his paintings have many details, so he has to be more careful when he draws them.

Gu Bai also knew this very well, so he didn't rob it anymore.

During the three hours waiting for the latex paint to dry completely, it is time for a lunch break after dinner.

Gu Bai nibbled at the remaining fruit in the bag in the studio, glanced at the planning whiteboard in the studio and a few design drafts on the magnet paste on the whiteboard, while nibbling, he touched a pencil and took one. Drawing paper, swish began to outline the lines.

Senior brother was originally looking at Gu Bai's appetite for eating fruit one after another, but when he saw that he took a piece of paper and started to sketch, he couldn't help pulling his stool and leaned over.

Gu Baigou's outline was quite fast, but it became a shape in just a few minutes.

It was a huge bird, depicted from the side, with its wings outstretched and its sharp claws sticking out, like a giant eagle about to hook its prey.

But looking at Gu Bai's more and more detailed description, it is completely different from the eagle.

The tail feathers are slender and feathers are on the top of the head, which is somewhat like a peacock, but the beak is different from the shape of the peacock. At first glance, it is a very cruel hook shape, and the sharp claws on the feet are also quite suitable for hunting.

After Gu Bai recklessly hooked up this fighting posture, he found a blank space again, put a tissue under his hand, and continued to evoke an ordinary flying posture.

When the vermilion bird took off, it was accompanied by ten thousand birds, and the scene was quite grand.

Although after a short period of time, those birds would be thrown off because they couldn't keep up with the speed of the Suzaku, but it was innocuous. This did not prevent Gu Bai from painting the magnificent scene when the Suzaku took off.

The picture was not colored, so the senior brother looked at it for a long time and asked, "What did you draw, Phoenix?"

"No." Gu Bai shook his head and replied with a more popular name for Vermillion Bird, "Vermillion Bird."

Senior brother watched it for a while, and felt that Gu Bai's painting was too realistic.

It's not that they don't know how to draw birds, beasts, insects and fish, but if they want to draw realistically without any sense of inconsistency, they need a lot of reference materials, and even deliberately observe the real dynamics.

After all, video works always lack a sense of feeling, and that feeling is precisely the agility that painting creation needs most.

"You draw these... as if you've seen it with your own eyes." Senior brother looked at Gu Baihua with his face up.

Because it is too real.

In terms of painting, there are actually some small details that can reveal problems. For example, for realistic works, if they are not painted directly according to the real object, then if you study the picture carefully, you can always find one or two places that are inconsistent.

The same goes for landscape paintings.

And Gu Bai's paintings are all too real, like putting the pictures he's seen on paper. After a long time of research, he couldn't find any minor flaws that violated the harmony, not even a single flaw.

There can be no perfect fictional picture in this world unless it is constructed from a real place.

Even Xuanwu's picture full of romantic fantasy has an immersive attraction.

Gu Bai listened to his brother's comments, and paused when he nibbled at the fruit: "I have seen it in my dreams."

Senior brother shook his head and praised him: "Probably because of your talent, we Gu Xiaobai are amazing."

Gu Bai silently ate the two remaining tomato bites in his hand, not daring to say a word.

He couldn't say that he had really seen it. After all, the brothers were still ordinary human beings, so it would be bad to scare him.

Senior brother patted him on the shoulder: "There is still an hour, I suggest you take a rest, didn't you sleep last night?"

Gu Bai rubbed his stomach when he was no longer hungry, and put down his pen simply: "Okay."

When the purchasing seniors came back, it was already close to the point of finishing work.

In addition to a variety of paint tools, they also came with bulbs of various colors within the museum specification.

Gu Bai's wall has just drawn the background and the line draft of the main body of the mysterious turtle according to the proportion. When the brothers came back, he took the pen and followed them to make a color palette with paint.

After these swatches are dried, they will be placed in the dark room separated by the museum, and then they will light up the lights of various colors in the dark room to see the color difference under the lighting effect to determine when to use it. What color is best to paint the wall.

When Gu Bai was painting the first color palette, Si Yiming's figure appeared at the door.

The door to the studio was wide open, and the smell of paint was not very pleasant.

Mr. Si looked at the five people in the studio who were busy making swatches, and after thinking about it, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

The five people in the room turned their heads in unison. After looking at Si Yiming, they turned to look at Gu Bai.

And Gu Bai also looked back, and after realizing it was Si Yiming, he hurriedly waved the brush in his hand: "Mr. Si, wait a second, I still have three swatches before I get off work!"

Si Yiming thought for a while, looked around at the other people who had become prudent in an instant because of his arrival, and simply gave up the thought of helping Gu Bai to paint the swatches.

"I'll be waiting for you in the car," he said.

Gu Bai smiled at him: "Okay, Mr. Si!"

Gu Bai moved very quickly. After painting the swatches, they left them on the workbench to dry. They would be dry when they came over tomorrow morning.

He hurriedly said goodbye to a few senior brothers, and then rushed out with a backpack on his back.

"They are..."

"... how is it the same as when I was chasing my wife before."

"It's the same when I go to pick up my wife now!"

A few senior brothers pondered together for a long time, took a deep breath, and then you looked at me, I looked at you, lowered their heads and tossed the color palette seriously, and said nothing.

Gu Bai didn't know the exchanges between the brothers. He carried his bag and drilled into the car, and then it was a meal.

"Mr. Si..."

Si Yiming turned to look at him: "Huh?"

Gu Bai sniffed the faint smell in the car, and while wearing his seat belt, he said, "Why is there so much oil smoke in the car?"

Si Yiming's eyes flickered, thinking of the ingredients that were scrapped at home today, he floated back, and said very calmly, "Your illusion."

The author has something to say: Si Yiming: Cooking is not fun.
