Paintings of Terror

As far as I can see, there are corpses everywhere.

The crowd is not clear how much they can see before their eyes, they just lay silently on the desolate and cold gravel and grass, corrupt corpses, broken limbs, lonely bones, and fur flying in the wind. .

The corpses are everywhere, and the eyes are full of silence. It is like a cemetery for life.

A few people haven’t spoken for a long time, and the vast and desolate mountains are as silent as the earth. Under the dark and heavy night sky, this cemetery is quieter than people, mountains, and the earth. The eyes of countless creatures seem to be in contact with this. Several people looked at each other silently, as if they were talking about the fear they had experienced before death that made their souls uneasy.

"This..." Ke Xun finally made the first voice, with a slight hoarseness in his voice. He had to clear his throat, "This is the gate of hell?"

"Then where is the door?" Zhu Haowen removed the flashlight that was shining on the ground, and switched to the distant mountains.

Because the corpse of a fox that had been decayed for a long time in the photo just now, his eyes moved suspiciously.

A few people took another picture around, and they didn't find the so-called "gate of hell". All they saw were corpses everywhere and the jagged boulder not far away.

"Are we going to stay here tonight?" Shao Ling looked at Mu Yiran.

"We can't always return to the road," Zhu Haowen said, "This place should be the place where the painting guides us to come."

Mu Yiran nodded slightly: "Yes, this should be the destination of our trip, so I will stay here tonight."

Shao Ling glanced around, pursing his lips.

The feeling of guarding these hundreds of corpses overnight is really not good.

As if he understood what Shao Ling was thinking, Mu Yiran added: "We drove the car near the rock, and there seemed to be fewer dead bodies."

The three cars carefully circumvented the corpse on the ground, and drove slowly to the huge rock. The rock is several stories high, and the area is about the size of four basketball courts. The stone walls are rugged and mottled, but the whole is straight up and down. From a distance, it looks like a square platform standing abruptly on the plain.

"Sky Burial Platform?" Ke Xun stood at the foot of the rock and looked up.

"You... don't scare me..." Wu You clutched his chest.

Everyone got out of the car at this moment and looked around the rock platform.

"If it's the celestial burial stage, there is nothing to be surprised," Wei Dong said, "This can only show that this is another hint that the painting "Faith" gave us. I hope that we don't let us die like that painting. It’s just as miserable inside."

Ke Xun was about to speak, but he saw Luo Ling approaching: "Brother...you accompany me to pee...I dare not go."

Ke Xun: "..."

Saying hello to everyone, the two walked a long way away, until they were about to lose sight of the people beside the rock and stopped, turned their backs, and so on.

Luo Ling sighed: "I'm almost suffocating me. I suffocated for at least two hours and almost didn't have any problems. Brother, do you think this will affect some of my abilities?"

Ke Xun: "...Why are you still worried about this now?"

Luo Yu: "Isn't I being afraid of making fun."

Ke Xun: "I will only serve you if you have a big heart. Are you done urinating, and leave after urinating."

The two of them packed up and walked back. Ke Xun swept the nearby corpses with a flashlight as he walked.

Luo Wei: "...Brother, I think you have a bigger heart than me. What is so good about these corpses? You still use stage lighting to light them up. Do you want them to'dead you paralyzed'?"

Ke Xun: "..."

"You can shut up now," Ke Xun pointed to the rock in front. "You go back first. I'll take a look around here."

"Brother!" Luo Ling looked at him in shock, "You are too courageous! You yourself?! Look among these corpses?!"

"Don't talk nonsense, or you will be with me, or you will go back first, and I will walk around." Ke Xun waved at him impatiently.

"What if there is danger?!" Luo Ling was worried.

"Have you not seen your brother-in-law paying attention here all the way?" Ke Xun pointed his chin to Mu Yiran, who stood beside the rock and looked at this side. "If there is danger here, your brother-in-law will If you find one, go back quickly."

Luo Ge had to trot all the way back to the rock.

Ke Xun didn't walk around randomly, just flashing a flashlight, taking this distance as the radius, taking the rock as a circle, making a big circle around the rock, and then returning to his companions.

"What did you find?" Mu Yiran dropped his hand on his leg, gently reinsuring the pistol.

Ke Xun walked over to hold his hand, rubbed it lightly, as if to relax him, and answered his words: "There is indeed a surprising discovery-see, all these corpses, they The direction that his head is facing is pointing to this rock platform."

These words really surprised everyone. Everyone shone flashlights at the corpses in the wild again, confirming that Ke Xun’s discovery is indeed true-all these messy corpses, whether they are beasts or birds, Whether they are large or small, whether they are rotten flesh or withered bones, their heads are like magnetic needles attracted by magnets, and they all point to the high rock platform beside everyone.

As for those corpses that had not been completely corrupted, a pair of wide-open eyes stared at the same direction and the same target.

Silent mountains, desolate wilderness, silent night. Hundreds of corpses of different shapes were all facing this abruptly towering square rock platform. A strange and tense atmosphere suddenly filled the thirteen painters and everything in front of them. The earth is shrouded in it.

"The rock platform is weird," Qin Ci whispered.

"Will it be above or below?" Zhu Haowen asked.

No one knows the answer yet.

"Then, what are we going to do now?" Li Xiaochun asked nervously.

"I suggest not to act rashly," Shao Ling said cautiously. "It will be light in a few hours. We'd better investigate the up and down of this rock carefully during the day."

Everyone agreed with Shao Ling's proposal, so they went back to their cars, and each car promised that one person would be awake and watch the night.

I don’t know how many people really fell asleep that night. When the sky was getting brighter, Ke Xun’s voice exploded in the car first: "Fuck! Where's the rock?!"

After hearing the sound, everyone quickly looked out of the car window, but saw that the rock platform that stood not far from the car last night had disappeared out of thin air! The place where it originally stood is now a gravel ground.

Ke Xun jumped out of the car, looked up, and was even more surprised: "Look—what about the dead animals?!"

The eyes are full of desolate sand, gravel and dead grass, but there is no sight of dead bodies on the ground last night.

"Are all the illusions seen last night?" Wei Dong also walked to the side and looked around in surprise.

"Then when did this illusion disappear?" Ke Xun turned around and looked at his companions who had jumped out of the car. "Who was on the last night last night? Didn't you find the rocks disappeared?"

"There was fog in the valley before dawn," Shao Ling said, "I was the last guard. The fog was thick and the visibility was only about two or three meters. For safety reasons, I didn't get out of the car to check, nor did I think about the rocks. It will disappear. I think the rocks and corpses may have disappeared in the fog, that is, they disappeared before dawn, and the illusion may only appear at night."

"I don't think it's an illusion," Mu Yiran said. "Or, to be more precise, it is not an illusion. Because I personally touched the rock surface last night, it didn't look like a blindfold or a forgery. It is solid, and the texture is exactly the same as that of real rock."

"Yiran was right," Qin Ci continued, "I also observed a wild yak's corpse at close range last night. Although it has no vital signs, it does not matter from its exposed internal organs or its delicate connectives. From the perspective of tissues, bones, epidermis, pupils, etc., it is a real'living body' and a substance that exists."

"Then, why do they all disappear out of thin air?" Li Xiaochun scratched his head.

"I have a guess," Mu Yiran met everyone's gazes, "I think, maybe what appeared in this canyon last night was a situation in another world."

This speculation made everyone stunned on the spot.

"From a metaphysical point of view," Mu Yiran didn't give everyone time to buffer his emotions, and then continued, "This belongs to the ancient Kunlun area in the "Shan Hai Jing", Kunlun Mountain, the ancestor of ten thousand mountains, the spiritual energy of the world The location is still the valley of death and the gate of **** in the modern population. Whether it is aura or yin, it peaked in this place last night, which is very likely to trigger or uncover a corner of another world.

"And if we explain it from a scientific point of view, the super-abnormal magnetic field of the rocks in the valley, and the intense and extreme storm weather last night, are also likely to cause space distortion, staggering, superposition, and even replacement. If we compare our world with another A world is understood as the coexistence of multiple universes, so this kind of short-lived'crossing' phenomenon is not impossible.

"Analyzed by the clues and hints given in "Schrodinger's Cat", our world is likely to be in a superposition state with another world. Then when we'observe' it, it collapses into another world.

"I now have a preliminary guess. Maybe the next action we want to start is to perform an act of'observation' in order to open the entrance to another world."

"... Makes sense." It took a while for everyone to finally relax. The experience of being in another world ‘accidentally’ made everyone feel a little bit afraid.

"Brother Qin, Xiaochun, Sister Cen, Qingqing, the four of you stay," Ke Xun immediately made arrangements, "Qingqing helped Xiaochun make breakfast together, Sister Cen took the gun and watched the movement around him, Qin you go Stand a guard on the roof of the car and pay attention to the other people. The other people are grouped, and they go to check in four directions. They all carry their bags and guns. Don’t go too far to ensure that they can always see Seeing our car, if Brother Qin finds that someone is in a wrong condition, immediately notify everyone with a flare gun."

Speaking of this, the flare gun and binoculars that Yi Ran brought to Qin Ci went to the trunk to search through the animal husbandry.

The members who have been born together and died many times have already had a tacit understanding. As Ke Xun made arrangements, everyone had already begun to prepare. After quickly dividing into groups, they each chose a direction and walked carefully toward the distance.

After half an hour, several groups of people came back one after another, all with nothing.

"There is nothing else except sand, gravel, grass and a few dead animals," Shao Ling said, "and these animal carcasses are not all headed in the direction of the rock platform last night. They seem to be very'normal' deaths. status."

The same is true for other group probes.

"I think we probably won't gain anything during the day," Zhu Haowen said. "Only at night will the'superimposed world' appear. All our actions can only be carried out at night."

Everyone agreed so, so the daytime operation was suspended. Everyone briefly used the breakfast that Li Xiaochun got, and then began to unload the camping materials from the car. The men set up four medium-sized and one large-sized tent, medium-sized. The tent is used to rest separately, and the big tent is used to gather together for a meeting.

The ladies were responsible for spreading blankets and distributing sleeping bags and other things to each tent. Finally, everyone piled up the collected dead grass and lit a small fire to boil water.

"It seems we can only wait till night." Wei Dong turned his head to the direction of the rising sun. The dazzling white light was like a sharp blade, which cut through the cold air in the morning and made people feel like being caught by the sun. The painful illusion that Dao Wanqi is being cut by the ice cone in his body.

"After drinking the hot water, I will go to sleep in the tent to make up for sleep," Ke Xun said. "I definitely didn't sleep well last night. I will keep my energy up during the day, and I will have the energy to deal with it at night. Let's arrange shifts with two people in each shift. We change every three hours. Dongzi and I are in the first class, Yiran and the turnip are in the second class. After lunch, Mr. Shao Xiaochun in the third class and Hao Wen'er Qin in the fourth class. Curator Hua and the ladies don’t have to be on duty. All have a beauty sleep."

Curator Hua: "..."

"Let's help with cooking," Wu You said, "Although I dare not take a gun, it's okay to take a kitchen knife. I guarantee that everyone will have enough meat to eat!"

"Well, food and clothing is the second most important thing besides life and death, so I beg you." Ke Xun smiled.

Wu You sighed inwardly when he looked at the box with ingredients on the ground.

Who knows how many meals you can live through.
