Art City

Ten minutes later, at the exit of the underground city, more than a dozen Gliese people in different clothes walked out. The tallest one was only 1.2 meters tall, compared to the taller ones of human beings.

But Zhang Yuan did not dare to underestimate him. Height and weight are not important, what matters is wisdom.

An intelligent race with an IQ no less than that of humans, a race with nuclear weapons and means of interstellar attack, even if it is in a state of decline, cannot be underestimated at will.

"Welcome all human friends to visit. We seek common ground while reserving differences, and seek friendly cooperation between the two sides..."

The leader of the Gliese is named Gan Yaduo, and he uses the common voice of Gaia civilization. The translation machine quickly translated the meaning.

The two sides shook hands with each other in accordance with human etiquette. These pangolins have very thick fingers, there are six in total, but they look very flexible.

Greeting according to human etiquette is already a kind of friendly expression.

Zhang Yuan was a little surprised when he heard that the leader had been a diplomat on a human spaceship for investigation. At that time, he thought he was an ordinary diplomat, but he did not expect to be a high-level leader.

He is quite blind to these pangolins, and he can't tell which one has been seen before...

Diplomat Wang Junpeng leaned over the earphone and said quietly: "Mr. Zhang Yuan, don't worry so much, it may be the other party. Their cultures are originally like this... Maybe they decided to negotiate peacefully after examining the human condition."

Zhang Yuan nodded, indicating that he already understood the situation.

After the two sides chatted briefly for a while, some welcome personnel took them all to the underground city.

The entire welcoming etiquette was very weird. Several Gliese people were sweeping the floor in front of them with broom-like things. While they were sweeping, the rest of them walked forward, as if sweeping the floor face to face, and then letting the guests go, was the greatest respect for the guests...

However, alien civilizations are understandable no matter what culture they are in. With the idea of ​​respecting each other's culture, Zhang Yuan hardly showed any expression.

The defeated and bleak underground city was filled with a gloomy atmosphere, similar to the description in the written report. The air humidity here is very high, and soon, a fine layer of sweat beads formed on the spacesuit.

Fortunately, these spacesuits have a self-cleaning effect, with a special coating similar to the surface of a lotus flower, and water drops drop by drop on the ground.

Zhang Yuan and the others didn't go too far, and ahead, through an isolation and disinfection room, is the human living area, and they will live in this area for a while.

In order to prevent biochemical contamination and to respect the privacy of human beings, the Gliese will not appear in this area.

The moment everyone walked into the living area, the lights brightened instantly, and they thought they were in their spaceship.

Lin Xuanxuan briefly checked the air condition with the medical equipment she carried with her.

"... No harmful microorganisms have been detected for the time being. However, if you can wear a helmet, you should wear a helmet as much as possible, and you must wear a mask anyway." "It is impossible to fully disinfect." Zhang Yuan nodded and

looked

around around.

The room structure, similar decoration, and similar lighting effects are almost the same as those of the Earth Era, which shows that the other party has really put a lot of thought into it... Except that the gravity of this planet is slightly higher, this point is actually the Gliese people. powerless to change.

Of course, what the other party didn't know was that compared with the environment inside the spacecraft, human beings actually prefer life under the blue sky and white clouds. It would be even better if the room could be built on the surface.

"Okay everyone, take the time to rest for a while... The exchange meeting will start soon, we must act according to the other party's schedule, if we miss this opportunity, we will have to wait for an unknown period of time." Zhang Yuan opened the

room Soon, Gan Yaduo, the leader of the Gliese civilization, appeared on the screen.

"Dear human leaders, I hope you like this living area."

"It's really good, thank you very much for your hospitality!"

After a short handover, at four o'clock in the afternoon, after a few hours of rest, the arrangement was hastily arranged An exchange of art and science.

Although flying in the sky for several days, all the diplomatic teams are a little tired, but if the opportunity is missed, this group of Gliese will have to sleep for more than ten days, which is an unbearable burden for human beings torment.

At this exchange meeting, in front of a large crowd, several human artists first played music belonging to human beings, some of which were self-created songs, and some were classic music of earth civilization.

The other party used a very strange musical instrument, a shell-like stone, which sounded like a variant of a wooden fish. It was bang bang bang bang.

Zhang Yuan looked at Lin Xuanxuan next door, who seemed to be enjoying the alien music, touched her quickly, and blinked. Anyway, being idle is boring, so he planned to close his eyes and rest his mind, taking the opportunity to take a nap...

Lin Xuanxuan understood and blinked.

This guy is always like this, he wants to sleep as soon as he comes out...

Then, the artists exchanged instruments with each other and began to guide each other on how to play.

For a time the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

In fact, some human instruments, especially the violin, are extremely difficult, and most people can only make a lot of noise when they play them. But some musicians on the other side still showed great interest.

"Crunch..."

Sure enough, there was an unpleasant noise. The musician was a little unconvinced, but also a little curious, and tried tirelessly.

And the opponent's musical instrument is also very delicate to use, and it is not so easy to master.

Zhang Yuan has never been interested in these things, but many humans on the spaceship, including his wife, are interested, that's enough...

As long as they understand each other's culture and have mutual understanding, there will be a breakthrough point, the communication will be much more fun.

In the next few days, there were exchanges in painting, sculpture, and dance.

To Zhang Yuan's surprise, human artists' artistic evaluation of Gliese civilization is actually quite high!

This kind of evaluation does not mean deliberately pleasing the other party, but an evaluation from the heart.

It is often heard in the living area, what kind of artwork is discussed, what kind of emotion is contained, what kind of thinking is expressed, etc... There are disagreements and even quarrels in some places.

"Old Guo, what do you think? Is there any art you like?" Zhang Yuan patted a middle-aged man on the shoulder.

A sculpture artist surnamed Guo is enthusiastically commenting: "Hundreds of thousands of years of accomplishments are indeed quite remarkable! Look at this sculpture, which has a sense of power and beauty, and contains a strong desire to fight against nature. Emotion!"

"I know, it's the kind of depression that science can't be born!" Old Guo said louder and more enthusiastically, "And it's an abstract beauty! It feels like someone is hammering steel Generally speaking, do you have that kind of hammering sound?"

Zhang Yuan took a closer look, and found that this sculpture was just a piece of stone, with some crooked lines carved indiscriminately, and he couldn't feel the "dongdong" sound of hammering at all.

It's really...inexplicable!

"Unfortunately, I haven't seen the real work...it's just an image. If it is the real work, it will be even more shocking! Why don't you show us the real work? Isn't it in this city? It's possible... Sigh." Zhang Yuan was very

weird Glancing at the artist surnamed Guo, he sighed inwardly, "These freaks... are simply people from a different world from us."

All in all, judging from the current performance, everything seems to be going very smoothly...
