Paintings of Terror

When the light of dawn lit up slightly and the dense fog turned thin, Wei Dong sharply noticed that two figures appeared on the original position of the rock platform-"Keer! Big brother!"

"Brother! Sister!-No-Brother-in-law!" Luo Ling shouted with excitement, and a group of people rushed over there.

"How are you?"

"Are you all right?"

"What happened?!"

"You scared us to death!"

"My God! Fortunately fortunately! You are all right! Great!"

Everyone talked and talked, but when they saw that Ke Xun and Mu Yiran looked solemn and hesitant, they looked at them very carefully.

"What's the matter?" Yue Cen, who rushed over because he was in a wheelchair, sensitively discovered something was wrong between the two.

"Don't doubt, we are all real, not illusions." Wei Dong quickly tapped his chest.

"Did something happen on the rock platform?" Qin Ci asked carefully.

Everyone suddenly became a little nervous and looked at the two people together no longer.

"...Nothing happened," Ke Xun's expression was still a little hesitant, he glanced at Mu Yi Ran, then at the crowd, and finally licked his dry lips, "How to say... we just climbed. Go to the rock platform, and you rushed over."

"Huh?" Several people asked confusedly.

"We just climbed onto the rock platform and were about to take a closer look at the surrounding environment, and found that we were on a flat ground again, and then you yelled and leaped over from there..." Ke Xun looked around with a strange expression. Looked, "--this is--it's dawn?!"

"Yeah...it will light up soon, one night has passed." Two or three people nodded blankly.

"——Fuck!" Ke Xun looked at Mu Yiran quickly.

"...Fuck." Everyone also glanced at each other in surprise.

"So, the night that has passed in our eyes is only a momentary thing for you?" Zhu Haowen said calmly.

"There are two possibilities," Mu Yiran was more calm than him, speaking calmly, "The first possibility is that the space on the top of the rock platform is a twisted space. After we went up, we passed through time directly, and came to the present from last night.

"The second possibility is that we didn't travel through time, but-some kind of force intercepted this memory of last night, leaving no trace."

These words made everyone tremble together.

"This rock platform is indeed very weird," Zhu Haowen meditated. "You can't take any of the images on it with the camera, and you have also traveled through time on it, or your memory has been erased-so it seems that maybe the camera It’s not that nothing has been photographed. It is possible that the image it photographed has also been'traversed' or erased by some force."

"Isn't the ultimate goal of painting tweet for us to climb that rock platform?" Wu You wondered, "otherwise why did we do this? If it is the former possibility, wouldn't we return to the original place in an instant after climbing? ? If it is the latter possibility, then we have forgotten a piece of memory, how does it promote things?"

"Perhaps, the rock platform needs 13 of us to climb together to show its true face." Yue Cen said, "and the situation that Xiaomu and Xiaoke encountered may be a confidential mechanism for the rock platform. , It does not allow to disclose the above situation in advance, and requires us to face it at the same time with 13 people."

"I agree with Sister Cen's statement." Ke Xun nodded, "It seems that the ultimate goal of the power behind the scenes is to get us on the rock platform together."

Everyone was silent for a while, only Luo Ling asked in a low voice: "Does that mean that when we board together, it is our death date?"

No one answered him. After a moment of silence, Wei Dong pretended to break the silence easily: "This painting and tweet is too unreasonable. The high platform is so high, is it possible that we all learn to climb first?"

"That's right, if you can't learn it, isn't it still not possible?" Li Xiaochun didn't know if he should be lucky or embarrassed.

"This question will be considered later," Shao Ling said. "Let's sort out the pictograms taken last night."

Everyone returned to the tent, still dividing the work.

Mu Yiran, Weidong, Shao Ling, Hua Jiqiu, and Yue Cen sorted out the graphic symbols, and Ke Xun, Zhu Haowen, Qin Ci and Luo Ge checked the images taken by the cameras arranged around the rock platform last night, Li Xiaochun Take the girls to make breakfast.

Last night, all the cameras failed to capture how the rock platform appeared and disappeared. During the two periods of time when the rock platform appeared and disappeared, the cameras captured either flying sand or rocks or a thick fog.

It takes a long time to sort out the symbols. Everyone cleared out a large rock wall last night, but it was still not all. The higher position could not be reached because it could not be reached.

Later, everyone joined in the work of sorting out the symbols, and Weidong even gave a few people who are proficient in using computers simple training in image processing.

At lunch, everyone temporarily put aside their work and rested while eating.

"How to clean up the symbols on the higher part of the rock wall?" Gu Qingqing asked.

"I have a way," Ke Xun said. "Tonight, Yiran and I are still climbing up the rock, but we don't climb up the stone platform. When we reach the edge of the stone platform, we drop a heavy object on the end of the rope in our hand, and then Throw it to the other side of the stone platform, so that the rope can be placed on the stone platform, and both ends hang down. We tie one end of the rope around the waist, and someone on the other side is responsible for pulling people to a high place so that they can be cleaned. The stone wall."

"This operation is very difficult and requires people with good physical strength," Mu Yiran said, "Who wants to try it?"

"I'll try it." Li Xiaochun said, "I have strength, especially my hands, just... can the rope hold me? Don't turn around and suddenly break..."

"It's a climbing rope." Mu Yiran dispelled his concerns.

"I'll try it too." Luo Er volunteered, "I'm light in weight, and I've also played indoor rock climbing, although I haven't climbed to the top once..."

"There is a rope to pull, you don't need to climb, just have the courage." Ke Xun said.

"Add me." Wei Dong raised his hand.

"You don't need you," Ke Xun said, "Your task tonight is to continue to organize the symbols. You don't even need to put out the tent. If you sort it out earlier, we can get closer to the answer."

"I'm coming." Fang Fei continued.

"Great, Phine is better than Dongzi." Ke Xun gave a thumbs up.

Wei Dong: "...How about using us as thugs?"

Ke Xun: "Brothers are like ‘hands’ and feet, Phie is a hand, and you are a little jiojio."

Wei Dong: "I'm a jiao girl fan your face."

Ke Xun: "Who else signs up?"

Zhu Haowen: "Me."

Ke Xun: "Can it really work?"

Zhu Haowen: "Are you sure you are asking me?"

Ke Xun: "I was wrong. So who, Mr. Shao, don't hide and think that you are not there. Do you want to try aerial homework?"

Shao Ling: "..." At this time, you still can't stop your desire to bully me.

Wu You: "Don't bully him, Mr. Shao's face is pale without seeing him."

Shao Ling: "..." My face is already white!

Ke Xun: "Alright, Mr. Shao and Lao Qin are in charge of pulling the rope below. Daddy Hua, Dongzi and Sister Cen continue to organize the symbols. Qingqing Wu You helps to stare at these people above us. It is inconvenient for everyone to communicate on it. You can help spread a message or something."

Everyone responded, and took a few hours of rest after eating, got up and continued to work.

In a blink of an eye into the night.

Ke Xun's method really worked. Several ropes were thrown from the left to the right of the stone platform. Everyone first pulled the ropes to drag one person up, and then tied the ropes firmly to the car, and then dragged the others in turn.

Thanks to Mu Yiran’s tie for everyone, it’s a special knot for mountaineering. Pass it between the legs and wrap it around the waist. Except that the men feel a little bit strangled, the overall feeling is fairly comfortable and it looks good. very safe.

Everyone has cleared up the experience of cleaning the stone walls, and the speed is much faster than the previous two nights. Otherwise, it took another two nights to finally clear all the symbols on the four stone walls.

Everyone stood under the rock platform and looked up, shocked by the situation in front of them for a long time, unable to speak.

This piece of stone platform rising from the ground rises like a huge square pillar, and its four huge walls are engraved with pictures and symbols of simple style and strange shapes. And around it, with it as the center point, in a circular radiation state spreading to the end of the sky, there are countless corpses with their heads facing it.

In this situation, it is as if the world's undead are worshipping their gods.

After daybreak, everyone did not take a break and immediately imported the captured images into laptop computers for processing. Several "internship artists" and Weidong who were forced to work in shifts went to eat and sleep instead.

After practice makes perfect, the speed becomes faster and faster. All the pictures in a day's work have been processed, and only the pictures are spliced ​​together.

Everyone stopped work and went to dinner first, and didn't take a closer look at the content for the time being.

"Unexpectedly, I have to come here to do my job..." Wei Dong rubbed his tired eyes and fell back on the thick carpet in the tent.

"This shows that you are a talented artist." Ke Xun handed him a cup of hot goat's milk.

"Fuck, what a vicious curse you are, whoever steps on horses is willing to choose an artist that day," Wei Dong sat up to drink milk, "If it's not for a living, I don't want to be an artist."

"Then what do you want to be?" Ke Xun asked casually.

"Be... a diver?" Wei Dong just saw Fang Fei coming in from outside the account.

"It's not too late to change." Fang Fei said.

"How about the salaries of your diving staff? Can I support my father, mother, daughter-in-law and myself?" Wei Dong asked.

"When are you still thinking about this?" Fang Fei said.

"Whenever you have to think about home." Wei Dong sighed.

Fang Fei stared at him for a while.

Ke Xun blinked his eyes and watched the two talk. Then he leaned back and leaned close to Mu Yiran's ear and said a few words in a low voice. The two turned to look at Wei Dong and Fang Fei together.

"My instinct has always been accurate, more accurate than the person involved." Ke Xun added one last sentence, then smiled and moved his **** to sit in front of the computer.

After seeing the weird icons on the screen, the short-lived relaxed mood immediately disappeared without a trace.

Ke Xun stared at the screen for a while, and asked Weidong: "Are these icons arranged in order now?"

"Yes, the name of the picture starts with ABCD, which represent the four sides of the rock wall. The numbers after the letters are the order of the pictures." Wei Dongdao.

"You can drink later," Ke Xun took the cup that Wei Dong had brought to his mouth. "Come here and put all the pictures of the rock wall on side A into a whole picture, just like on the rock wall. ."

"Damn, I can't let me finish it first." Wei Dong wiped his mouth and sat down in front of the computer to start the jigsaw puzzle. He simply put all the pictures into one picture in order, and it didn't take much time. The screen is a bit small and there are too many pictures. If you put all pictures in one picture, if you want the whole picture to be displayed on the screen, you will not be able to see the specific content of each small picture."

"It's okay, I'll just look at it." Ke Xun put the cup back in his hand, turned the screen in front of him, stared at it carefully, sometimes zoomed in, sometimes zoomed out, sometimes simply lifted the computer from Observe from all angles.

After watching it for a long time, he suddenly turned his head and said to Mu Yi: "I have made a discovery."
