Paintings of Terror

Shao Ling said: "There is no half-person figure in the entire living area. The area is not very large. You can enter the forest behind in a short walk. We went around the outer area of ​​the forest and found that it was not a dead forest. There are a lot of living animals, and there are many kinds of plants."

Qin Ci said: "We found a lot of blood stains on the roads of the residential area, outside the house and some other corners. It has been a long time. There are no signs of fighting or even signs of running away after being injured. Bleeding in the process of walking, and in a few places, we found signs that someone was bleeding and knocked over objects next to them after falling down. What's strange is that these knocked over objects were kept in their original form. People come to clean up the aftermath."

Wei Dongdao: "In addition to ordinary houses, this residential area also has a small community clinic, and another road leads to the distance. But there are roadblocks on this road. We tried to walk far along the road. , I found that there was no way to go. There was chaos in front of me, just like the painting of "The Funeral". The edge areas were all blurred. Obviously this is also a limited painting, limiting us to In the residential area and within the forest."

Ke Xun also told everyone what the three of them had just seen, and Shao Ling said after listening: "It seems that this residential area has experienced a strange or even strange change, making people's daily life like It was abruptly stopped in an instant, and all the scenes remained the same, and in the process, many people suffered injuries of varying severity."

"These are just preliminary inferences at the moment," Mu Yiran said. "We only inspected one house. We also need to check the internal conditions of other houses before we can get more evidence to prove it."

"Then let's hurry up and continue," Ke Xun said, looking at everyone in front of him, "what about you?"

Qin Ci said, "I will inspect the house with you."

Shao Ling Weidong and Fang Fei also nodded.

Xiao Kai scratched the back of his neck, glanced at Tian Yang, and then at the old members. Finally, his eyes fell on Ke Xun's face: "Let me ask a digression: How did you eat and drink when you entered the painting world before? The problem?"

"Some paintings will provide related materials, and some paintings will not make you hungry or thirsty." Ke Xun replied.

"Then what kind of situation do you think this painting belongs to?" Xiao Kai asked with some uncertainty. "At least until now, I feel a little thirsty. This should not belong to the second situation you just mentioned? Then if it is the first In one case, where will the related materials be?

"I think it's important to find a signature, but first we must ensure that we can live in the painting. In this hot weather, food and water are very important. After all, we are likely to live in the painting for seven days, right?

"Food can be secondary, but water is essential, especially if it is so hot now, if you don't add water in time, you may get dehydrated and heatstroke.

"And I think it's better not to think about it when things happen. You should make adequate preparations in advance. At least some drinkable water should be prepared first. What do you think?"

"Oh, what you said makes sense," Ke Xun said, pointing to the houses behind him. "If you can find drinking water in these houses, I just don't know if the water pipes can still flow out, even if it can. When the water comes, I don’t know if it can be drunk. In short, I still need to go to the house to make sure."

Xiao Kai scratched his neck and nodded: "There is another question. You said that it is very dangerous outside at night in the painting. Should we find a convenient place to stay at night? For example, if one of these houses is not So the house that makes people feel like that, just... a little cleaner?"

"Really," Ke Xun said to Mu in private when everyone went to check other houses separately, "I think this painting is more dangerous inside the house than outside."

The crowd was still divided into four groups and went to check other houses separately.

This time the house that the three of Ke Xun entered was better than the previous one. At least when I opened the door, I didn’t see anything similar to blood, but the room was still covered with thick dust, and the corners were covered with cobwebs. Like the house, all the facilities and conditions in this house maintain an abrupt life scene.

The three of them rushed to the kitchen first, Ke Xun opened the water pipe, and no half of the water came out. Zhu Haowen checked all the valves and no water came out no matter how they screwed them.

After checking the electricity and gas and other necessary resources for life, the supply was also stopped.

Mu Yiran opened the refrigerator, and the situation in it was horrible. Because the power was cut off long ago, the food in the refrigerator had become something indescribable. What made Ke Xun admire his man so much was that Mu Yiran even returned it. Can look through the refrigerator without changing the color to find some airtight packaged food.

"This must not be eaten." Ke Xun reminded the man.

"I just want to look at the production date to determine the era depicted in this painting." Mu Yiran glanced at him.

"My man's heart is thin." Ke Xun gave him a thumbs up.

Mu Yiran ignored his rainbow fart and carefully inspected the sealed packaged food, only to find that the production date and the specific year printed on all the food were blurred. Only the first 2 could clearly see the month and date. They are all still there and they are different, but Mu Yiran feels that this has no effect on finding clues, and the obscured years are definitely useful.

"This painting does not want us to know the inexplicable events that happened here, and in what era." Ke Xun said, "In other words, if we know the specific time of this era, it will help us find the signature. ."

"We can go and look for things in the house that can involve dates, such as calendars, month cards, newspapers, and other items with production dates." Zhu Haowen said.

"I don't think the result will be optimistic," Ke Xun said. "Since even the date on the food packaging bag is blurred, other things that directly point to the date must have the same result, unless we go through some physical objects. Infer the age."

"This can be placed in the next arrangement. At present, the most important thing is to find water," Mu Yiran said. "I think the water problem and the climate problem are probably what we will face in this painting, except for some unknown things. The biggest challenge outside cannot be taken lightly."

The three people searched the whole house thoroughly. In addition to searching for water and food, they also searched for related clues. Of course, the result was no result, no water, no edible food, and no seem to be usable. Clues.

After coming out of this house, the three people went straight to the next house. During the period, members of other groups could be seen walking or entering and exiting between certain two houses.

Unknowingly, the whole morning passed like this, and when everyone gathered together again, the time on the phone was already more than 12 noon.

"I've looked for all of them, and there is no water that can be directly drunk," Shao Ling said. "There are also no edible foods. There are some vacuum-sealed foods, but the production date cannot be seen clearly, although it does not seem to have deteriorated after opening. , But still not sure whether we can still enter it. I think this time we have to face the most basic challenge of survival in addition to facing unknown dangers."

"Apart from these, are there other discoveries?" Mu Yiran asked.

"Almost every house has a lot of blood stains," Qin Ci said, "If the amount of blood is not mixed with many people, it is almost equivalent to the blood volume of a person's whole body. And after the shape of these blood stains Observing, I found that some dripped on the floor, and some remained on the wall or ceiling in the form of splashes. This made me a little puzzled. What caused this situation, and the important thing is why almost every place here The same situation in every household?"

Everyone looked around in silence for a while. These dilapidated and quiet houses stood under the gray sky. Each house was like a small purgatory on earth, full of strange and shocking ways. Human blood.

What terrible incidents have happened in this place?

"I still have to find a way to find water as soon as possible." Qin Ci glanced at the dry mouths, especially Xiao Kai, his lips were already chapped, and his spirits didn't look good.

"If there is no water in the residential area, we can only go into the forest to check it out." Shao Ling pointed to the forest behind the residential area. The forest area is so large that the front and back of the forest cannot be seen. There are many towering ancient trees, which should be a natural ancient forest.

Everyone cheered up and passed through the residential area to the edge of the forest.

Judging from the types of plants, this seems to be a forest close to the tropical zone, with many tropical plants growing, and the moisture in the forest is also very strong, and the sharp insects ring continuously, stinging people's headaches.

"In such a forest, you are most afraid of poisonous insects and snakes. You'd better cover your bare skin," Mu Yiran said to everyone before entering the forest. "Everyone should find a thicker and longer branch to defend themselves and move forward. Don’t be distracted, pay more attention to your eyes and surroundings."

After hearing this, everyone hurriedly went to find suitable branches, and wrapped the clothes that had been taken off around their heads and hands.

"Let's enter in a row," Ke Xun said, "I and Yiran are at the forefront, Mr. Shao, Dongzi, and Carrot, you three are in the middle, Qin Gehao Wener Fang Fei, you three are at the end, and the rest are with us Between three groups of people.

"When we are moving, Yiran and I are responsible for staring at the front, the person walking in the middle is responsible for staring at the left and right and the head, and the person walking at the end is responsible for staring at the rear.

"Listen to the new members. No matter what happens, you must not fall behind, and you must not panic and run around and follow the big forces. If you are separated from everyone, you can stay where you are, and try to stay where you are. If you stay where you are, try to go towards the residential area as much as possible. We will try our best to rescue the separated people on the premise of keeping ourselves safe.

"When you hear me yelling'Run', you turn your head and run back. Don't ask anything, don't hesitate, run first, and don't care about anything, unless you hear me or yell.' Stop', otherwise just keep running.

"Finally, be careful not to touch things that shouldn't be touched. If you encounter insects, snakes or beasts, stay calm and notify others in time. Did you hear clearly?"
