Paintings of Terror

At this time, people feel that the NPC’s words are very ruthless: "This classmate said it well. For example, on the penultimate level, the limited time of each world is 12 hours, and each world is opened at the same time. If a group of members completes the mission in the world within 6 hours and successfully finds the fragments, they can enter another world that has been opened but no one has entered, but there is only time left for the next world It's been six hours, not just time, but also the consumption of physical endurance...As the level of the tower increases, this consumption will increase.

"Moreover, if members of this world itself have been assigned to it, then outsiders, that is, other members outside this world, will not be able to enter. All they can do is wait and wait for the success or failure of the other party."

There was no sound in the hall at this moment, and the difficulty of this painting far exceeded everyone's previous expectations.

There are definitely difficulties, but what everyone will face seems to be endless difficulties. Once there is an omission, everyone will be forced to enter the next round. In the end, if you don't die, you will also be consumed alive.

"Teacher," Gu Qingqing's voice resounded, "I have another question. Is there a limit to the difficulty of each level of the world, and does it increase gradually?"

The teacher NPC replied: "This is not true. The difficulty of each world is the same. It may be easy for those who are good at it, but if you catch up with your own knowledge, I'm afraid..."

Everyone’s heart has sunk to the bottom. Everyone has their own good and bad skills. You may be able to make up for each other when you get together to break through the barriers, but now you have to group everyone-until now everyone seems to suddenly understand that the most terrifying Things are actually grouping.

Thinking of this, many people looked at Mu Yiran reluctantly. If there is no such person in their group...just like in the previous paintings, if there is no such person, it will undoubtedly be dead.

Ke Xun also just asked the question of grouping: "Teacher, we are 13 people in total, and there are 7 worlds at the bottom. How do we divide the 13 people into 7 groups? Is this grouping our own or..."

"It's randomly assigned, and you can't help it. Every two people are in a group, and one is left alone." Teacher NPC pointed to a small disk-like device on the table, "If you are ready, Just press this disc and it will bring you into your own world."

There are two people in a team, and the remaining one becomes a team. Randomly assigned.

Everyone looked at each other, as if they would be the hapless one who was alone.

"Okay, today's class is over here, let's dismiss it." Teacher NPC didn't allow everyone to say anything, so he pressed the small disc on the podium table, and immediately rang a harsh ringtone, like the old school. The school bell.

With the end of the bell, the teacher NPC disappeared.

The NPC left too suddenly, and it made people feel a little lost.

"It seems that the only information that NPC can provide is this," Shao Ling stood up, went around the disc on the table with some fear, and walked towards the blackboard, "He has made the rules very clear."

"This world seems to have broken the rule of'death in the night'," Qin Ci said in his own opinion, "For example, on the first day, once we collect the seven fragments, there will be signatures, and then we can all go out; otherwise, If we don’t collect all the fragments, we will enter the next round of screening of the world. At the same time, if we don’t collect the fragments, it means that someone has not been able to come out of the world. Although the teacher did not say clearly, I think that if we can’t find fragments, we should It is impossible to live out of the world. Since death may occur in the world, there is no such thing as day and night."

"Not all," Zhu Haowen said, "maybe there will be clear day and night in the world, maybe death will also happen at night."

The world-now this vocabulary easily reminds everyone of words such as end times or hell.

Li Xiaochun has always had a confused expression, and now he gradually figured out what was going on, and said at this moment: "That is to say, only by finding the fragments in the world can you live out of the world, and every world must find the fragments. , You can find the signature after you get it together, and then you can leave here completely, right?"

"Yes, you are right." Qin Ci looked at the young man with some pity.

Wu You also said: "We'd better work hard and find the fragments of our own world when we have the most physical and mental power, so that we can paint all on the first day! And all 13 of us can live!"

This sounds like this, but Yue Cen couldn't help but interrupt: "However, there is another situation where everyone found the signature on the first day, but not all 13 people are alive. After all, it is a group of two. It’s very possible that one of them... had an accident, and the other was alive to find the fragments and out of the world.

This assumption is cruel, but it is also true.

“We can’t group left or right, nor can we see the world that we are about to enter. What we can do now is to understand the content of the fragments as soon as possible,” Mu Yiran said. “Although we don’t know what shape or form the fragments will appear in, but understand more. Some can't be wrong."

After hearing these words, everyone walked towards Gu Qingqing, because the painting Hua Jiqiu drew just now was placed with her.

Weidong simply picked up the notebook with the picture, and walked onto the podium by himself: "I follow this and draw on the blackboard, everyone reads and remembers!"

As a result, everyone tensed their strings. Every time Weidong drew a pattern on the blackboard, everyone would follow along with it. The paper and pen used were prepared by himself or borrowed from Gu Qingqing. Everyone was holding a pen and frowning, his eyes followed the chalk on Weidong's blackboard, and his hands followed the drawing with twists and turns.

Until the nearly twenty fragment patterns were drawn, everyone began to work hard to remember them, almost engraving these patterns into their minds.

Mu Yiran gently walked to Hua Jiqiu's side, and asked in a low voice: "Curator Hua, I also want to know about the situation of the Sinian couple."

Hua Jiqiu didn't need to memorize these patterns, because most of them were familiar to him, so he said to Mu Yiran: "Just ask, I know everything."

"Is this couple from archeology majors? Have they been engaged in other industries halfway through?" Mu Yiran asked, "According to past experience in painting, the inner world of the artist is very helpful for painting."

"Si Youjun, that is, the husband, has a background in archaeology. His wife, Qiannian, shouldn't be. She is only halfway through archaeology, but I don't know exactly what she is studying." Hua Jiqiu fell into deep thought, "Qi This person is very talented. It should be her idea to synthesize those fragments into a special New Year picture. She is very artistic. Some of her works of art have also been praised in the industry, and she has also published some books on historical knowledge. "

Mu Yiran listened and found this painting more and more difficult.

"About that couple, I can just say whatever I think about it. It may not be systematic enough." Hua Jiqiu lifted his glasses, feeling that the bright light around made his eyes a little uncomfortable. "There are some things that I have heard. It is said that this couple The mode of getting along with is very interesting. Two people basically don’t speak much, and occasionally a sentence or two makes outsiders feel dumbfounded, but the couple can immediately understand each other’s meaning and can quickly make it. Respond, and that response often confuses others."

Mu Yiran listened, and did not make a sound for a while.

Ke Xun also listened to Hua Jiqiu’s words, and couldn’t help asking: “You said that the Hehe Erxian is the **** in charge of a happy marriage, but I think the Hehe Erxian on the New Year pictures is usually two immortals. He looks like a child, combing a bun, holding a big lotus leaf and a big lotus in his hand, and holding a treasure box. I initially thought Hehe Erxian should be the daughter of Dong Yong and Meng Jiang."

Hua Jiqiu coughed in embarrassment: "It's Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies; Fan Xiliang and Meng Jiangnu."

"Oh oh oh, that's it."

But Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun, and suddenly a smile appeared. This smile was keenly caught by Ke Xun: Could it be that... the boyfriend only discovered now that Hehe Erxian is actually two male gods...

Mu Yiran said: "In fact, the original body of the two immortals of Hehe was the hidden monk Hanshan and Shide of the Guoqing Temple in Tiantai Mountain in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that these two monks have extraordinary speech and often have mysterious Zen dialogues, which makes ordinary people confused. "

Hua Jiqiu seems to have some enlightenment: "In this way, the daily dialogue between the Sinian and his wife is quite a sense of harmony and harmony. It is no wonder that this painting is called "Harmony". As an ordinary couple, they have become rare soul confidants."

Indeed, between true confidants who know each other, why not talk with each other in the night, just a look in the other side is enough.

A piercing bell suddenly rang again, shocking everyone.

Soon, the familiar NPC teacher’s voice came up from the ground again. This time it seemed to be the voice after using a loudspeaker: "Please hurry up. If you don’t press the disc after three minutes, the seven worlds will Start automatically."

After a moment of silence, most people were not calm, and seized the last time to look at the fragments and patterns that Weidong drew on the blackboard, but at this time nothing went to their heads, and they couldn't concentrate at all.

Mu Yiran's voice sounded: "If I am right, the world we are about to enter may require a Zen-like puzzle solving method."

"What is a Zen-style puzzle-solving method?" Luo Yu's gaze turned from the blackboard, his expression was crying without tears, "Is that the scope of science or liberal arts? Does it have anything to do with the value of force?"

"That is probably another category, related to Buddhism." Zhu Haowen said.

Mu Yiran wanted to explain, but he couldn't make it clear. How could he make a sentence or two about things like Zen Zen?

Ke Xun was a little anxious, so he said according to his own thoughts: "Anyway, I just try to lean on a place beyond the transcendence, what is the state of no self..."

Before the words fell, the world before him changed.

Obviously the seven worlds started spontaneously. Ke Xun tightly grasped Mu Yiran's hand beside him, but as the surroundings got darker and colder, the whole person didn't know which void he went to, let alone What's in hand.

Ke Xun tried to calm himself down, and tried to see the world in front of him with his eyes open, but at this time he felt nothing but darkness and coolness.

Gradually, Ke Xun felt that his feet seemed to be on the ground, but the surroundings were still dark and invisible. There seemed to be a cool breeze coming over, making a "brushing and pulling" sound, somewhat like the sound of poplar leaves in the wind. , And some sounds like scraps of paper in the wind.

When he couldn't see anything, he would feel that these voices were particularly horrible. Ke Xun even suspected that he was blind in this world setting. Thinking of this, he tried his best to maintain a calm expression and try not to stretch out his hand to look around. I don't understand the situation at the moment, so it's best not to let outsiders find that you can't see things.

"Come early." A voice suddenly rang from his ears, Ke Xun was taken aback, but his expression remained calm.

"It's good, early, let's stand forward." A woman's voice was mixed with some dialect.

Ke Xun didn't say a word, anyway, these two voices didn't talk to him, he just listened.

Two voices, you come and I said a few more words, Ke Xun feels that these two voices are a little weird, and I can’t tell where they are strange. They are clearly speaking, but the ending of the voice is not like a human voice. .
