Paintings of Terror

Mu Yiran looked at Fang Fei with a very serious look in his eyes. He had promised to find the right time to try on the witch's mask, but this girl suddenly...

Fang Fei looked more serious than Mu Yiran when she was wearing a mask: "I have read that book, witches wearing masks are free from reincarnation, so their lifespan is often very long. ——Except for this Other than that, there is no other danger."

Weidong: Is this the point?Is longevity a danger...

"What did you see?" Zhu Haowen asked.

Fang Fei looked around slowly: "It's very fantastic, it seems that you can see the world far away through this room, just like that wide-angle lens." Fang Fei paused for a while, and seemed to observe for a while before speaking again, "It's still It's amazing to be able to adjust your perspective.

"Light Brigade is a group of houses with lights. In front of it is a bright world, which should be the Light Brigade; behind the Light Brigade is a group of dark stone houses with light green, light blue and white spots. , I think that should be the fluorite brigade; beyond the fluorite brigade, it is completely dark, illuminated by snow, there is probably the cold night brigade...the other side of the cold night brigade is the light brigade.

"It's a circle, the four brigades form a circle," Fang Fei raised her head, and moved her steps slowly, "This circle is in the middle of the ground egg, a bit like the equator on the earth, and the house of Nilu is built inside The one in the circle, as you guessed before, is in the ground egg."

"Can you tell me about the ground eggs?" Shao Ling asked.

"Like a glass egg, I can only see the inside, but not the outside," Fang Fei paused for a long time, "I still can't see it, but I can see the exit, which is in the cold night brigade. Next to it, there is an exit leading to the outside, just like the mouthpiece of that Xun."

Weidong: "I remember when I first came here, someone said that the feeling of suffocation is like swimming in a preserved egg."

Luo Kuo: "Brother Dong, that's what you said."

Wei Dong: "Me?"

Luo Xie: "I said it looked like asphalt, but you said it looked like a preserved egg. It seems that you expressed it more accurately."

Wei Dong: "..."

"So, if we want to go out, we have to go to Han Ye Brigade, because it is the closest to the exit," Shao Ling said, "The signature is outside the ground egg, and getting out of the ground egg is our only choice."

"Here is a question," said Zhu Haowen, "how far is the exit from the signature? From the screen, the signature is on the left side of the circle, but the exit is not necessarily next to the signature. If we find the wrong The location is likely to be the opposite, and the ground egg is too big, and we may find it more difficult to find it outside."

This is indeed a problem, Wei Dong asked Fang Fei: "Can you look outside through the preserved egg, can you see where the signature is? Is it far from that exit?"

Fang Fei, who was wearing a mask, spread her hands: "I can't see it, I don't even have a sense of light."

Weidong somehow wanted to draw facial features on this white mask...

At this moment, Mu Yiran took out a pen and paper, and drew a big circle on it: "I simply drew a sketch, which can be regarded as a rough restoration of the original picture - the signature is in the upper left corner, and the light source is in the upper right corner. Maybe we can extrapolate from it."

Luo Kuo: "Can this still be calculated? I beg the elder brother-in-law to solve the problem..."

Mu Yiran drew an arrow pointing to the circle at the position of the light source: "The light comes in from here, and we should also come in from here. The world before us and the time we were in at that time should be bright. And this painting also tells us that our hometown is the Bright Brigade."

Mu Yiran drew a big cross on the circle, and divided the circle into four parts: "Assuming that the part in the upper right corner is the Light Brigade, according to what Fang Fei just said, the adjacent ones are the Cold Night Brigade and the Light Brigade , the opposite is the Yingshi Brigade," Mu Yiran wrote the three characters 'Ezorite Brigade' on the part opposite to the Guangming Brigade, "At present, only the locations of these two brigades can be determined, and the other two brigades It is difficult to define the position of the circle, and the only information that can be referred to is probably the content of the painting inside the circle."

"However, this painting is really abstract. It only draws a house in the center of the circle, but in fact our four brigades are built on the inner circle." Qin Ci felt unable to analyze, "Of course the world after entering the painting It is also impossible to completely follow the content of the picture. At present, there are only houses and their shadows in the center of the circle..."

"I think shadows are very useful!" Luo Wei followed everyone in thinking hard for a long time, and finally expressed his opinion at this time, "If it is useless, it is impossible for the painter to draw shadows specially! Just now my brother-in-law said that the angle between the light bulb and the shadow is wrong , this is the cause of time confusion, but I think the shadow must have other functions, I think, the shadow is a kind of darkness, so the lower right of the circle should be the cold night travel!"

Everyone was dumbfounded by what he said, Weidong said, "Carrot, I really have you."

Mu Yiran frowned, but he didn't write the words Han Yelv in the lower right corner: "If this is the case, then the exit here is very far from the signature, so it can be said that this world in the painting For the farthest distance, we must measure the distance from the spherical surface of the ground egg once we exit the exit—it is not yet known how many days it will take to reach the Cold Night Brigade. If you add the time to find the signature outside the ground egg, five days is a long way It’s not enough—and, on our timeline, there are only 12 hours in a day.”

Zhu Haowen approached the table, picked up the pen on the paper: "I have an idea, the shadow here is not necessarily black."

"What color is the shadow if it's not black? Isn't the shadow on this picture black?" Luo Xie said.

"The house in the center of the circle itself is abstract, and the shadow should also be abstract. It only expresses people's intuitive understanding of the shadow, but the world we live in is different from the real world." Zhu Haowen pointed to the light bulb, and then pointed to Pointing to the circle, "Fang Fei said just now that this ground egg is like glass, and we also experienced that indescribable sense of medium when we first entered the painting, so I think the material of the ground egg should be glass or a transparent material similar to glass." , and if so, then the shadow cast by the glass would not be black."

Everyone listened carefully, Mu Yiran's eyes lit up, showing a rare look of anticipation.

Zhu Haowen drew a straight line on the part of the light source with a pen, as if to draw the effect of the light beam: "If this is the case, this will solve why the effect of light and shadow is so strange. We all know that glass or water will produce the effect of refraction. , and the material of the ground egg is more special, it is likely to produce a very special refraction effect, which also explains why there is such a strange angle between the shadow and the light beam."

"You mean that the shadows here are not actually shadows?" Qin Ci asked.

"Yes, that's not a shadow, but refracted light." Zhu Haowen used an arrow to indicate the direction of light refraction. The light is not as strong as the light source, but it still has a certain effect-that's why the light brigade we are in has only a short day of four hours.

"We all know that the fluorite brigade and the cold night brigade have no daylight at all, and the twilight light obtained by the light brigade will not be without a source. If it comes from refracted light, this will have a good explanation."

Everyone was dumbfounded, but secretly admired Zhu Haowen's analysis.

Mu Yiran nodded: "It makes sense, if that's the case, the lower right corner is the Light Brigade where we are now, and the upper left corner is the Cold Night Brigade."

"The exit of the Earth Egg happens to be at Han Ye Brigade. If the signature is also there, we will be much smoother!" Qin Ci's voice was very excited.

Luo Kuo was confused when he heard it, but he also nodded happily at the moment: "That means we will be able to find the autograph soon after we arrive at Han Ye Brigade!"

Mu Yiran looked at Fang Fei: "How do we get to the Cold Night Brigade? No matter from the inner circle or the outer circle, the Light Brigade and the Cold Night Brigade are far away. Do we need to go through the Light Brigade to reach the Cold Night Brigade?"

"Just now my sight reached the limit, my eyes are a bit tired, and now I can't see so clearly," Fang Fei was talking, when the door of the room opened suddenly, and other members returned to the room with their lunch.

Several new members were shocked when they saw Fang Fei wearing a mask. Only Ke Xun was calmer and joked: "I thought you were wearing a mask."

Fang Fei smiled lightly, turned her masked face to Du Lingyu who was standing aside, her shoulders were stiff, but because the mask covered her expression, it didn't attract too many people's attention.

Ke Xun lit the lights in the room: "I knew that you must have discussed important results again, but I want everyone to see this first."

Ke Xun cleaned up a corner of the table, put a large washbasin full of water on the table, and then went to get his package: "Of course, take out your duck too."

Everyone: "..."

Two identical wooden ducks were placed on the table, and Ke Xun turned the two ducks belly up: "There is indeed something on the belly! The bellies of these two ducks can be connected together."

Crowd: ...

Immediately afterwards, Ke Xun put the two ducks stomach next to each other and twisted them for a long time like tightening a wind-up toy.

Crowd: ...

"Everyone, take care," Ke Xun put one of the ducks upside down in the washbasin, while the other duck sank under the water like a reflection.

Everyone found it inconceivable, Wei Dong also said: "Is the duck underneath made of other materials?"

"Exactly the same material, you continue to look at it," Ke Xun patted the head of the duck on the water surface, and the duck stretched its neck a little bit of the water surface, flipped to the bottom of the water, and the duck at the bottom floated up, Appeared above the water.

"No... Brother, you gave us a demonstration for a long time, what are you trying to say?" Luo Yu couldn't help it, and finally asked.

"Actually, I can't figure out what's going on."

Crowd: ...

Ke Xun quickly said again: "But I don't think these two ducks will appear in our package for no reason. This must be another clue left by 'us' for us. Why did you choose these two ducks? Because It just so happened that Yiran and I both had a wooden duck toy like this when we were young. It was precisely because of the consistency with the memory of the original owner that the two ducks would not be blocked by the painting.

"However, why are these two wooden ducks left behind, and these two wooden ducks still have such a strange way of playing... I think it must not be simple here."

Shao Ling said from the side: "Does this represent a kind of reincarnation? Or a replacement of identity?"

"The reminder of the wooden duck toy is very important. This is the point where the two timelines intersect." Mu Yiran's expression was a little excited, which he rarely showed.
