Paintings of Terror

The young man named Xiao Kai was more outgoing, as if he couldn't stand the silence, so he pulled Tian Yang aside and asked him in a low voice, "Do you know those two people?"

Tian Yang nodded slightly.

"Did you have a problem with them?" Xiao Kai had already seen that the expressions of these three people were not quite right.

Tian Yang pursed his lips, looked up at him, and said in a low voice: "Don't ask anything first, I will tell you in detail after I leave here. And...our relationship...don't...don't let it go They see it."

Xiao Kai looked at him, then turned his head to look at Ke Xun and Weidong, then turned back to look at Tian Yang, and lowered his voice: "I see, don't worry."

"En." Tian Yang seemed to be preoccupied, so he only responded shallowly.

Fortunately, not too long passed, and the white light finally lit up again. This time it was a girl who came in. It was hard to judge her age. She was obviously dressed in a simple and mature way, but her eyebrows and eyes were full of student air, and the bridge of her nose Put on a pair of round black-rimmed glasses.

The girl looked at everything in front of her in shock, and it took her a long time to find her own voice: "This... I... I have time-traveled?"

"No, you haven't," Wu You looked at her sympathetically, "You have entered the world in the painting."

The girl was dumbfounded for a while, then turned her head to look behind her, and found that there was no way or door to come, only a piece of desolate land, she turned her head back in shock, and said with a stiff expression: "The painting, the world in the painting? How could that be?! It's impossible—it's unscientific—it, it doesn't make sense—"

"What's your name?" Wu You sighed.

"Gu, Gu Qingqing..."

"Okay, everyone is here, let me make a long story short," Qin Ci said, "Please believe me, everything you see and what you are about to hear is true."

Maybe it’s because of the experience in the interpretation work——Qin Ci has already mastered how to explain the most important information clearly in the most concise language, so it didn’t take much time, and the three newcomers were in a state of shock and disbelief In the middle, Qin Ci finished his speech and called it a day.

"The above are all true," Ke Xun said blankly. "Believe it or not, if you want to get out of here alive as much as possible, you'd better cooperate with us. Time waits for no one, let's act now."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to hold Mu Yiran's hand, and walked away.

The old members followed suit one after another, Xiao Kai and Tian Yang were at the end.

Tian Yang looked away from the hands held by Ke Xun and Mu Yiran, walked with lowered eyes, and heard Xiao Kai whispering next to him: "Did you hear clearly just now, people will die in this painting, and they will die every night." Death—I think we have to have a good relationship with these people, they say they have already entered many paintings, they must have sufficient experience, we must not be left alone, we must follow them closely.”

"Yes." Tian Yang responded.

Xiao Kai glanced at him, leaned over, and pointed to Ke Xun and Mu Yiran who were walking in front with his chin: "Look at them two."

Tian Yang quickly raised his eyelids, then lowered them again: "Don't worry about others."

"What are you worried about?" Xiao Kai said, and suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Tian Yang's hand, "Aren't they going to make it public anyway? Besides, if this painting is really as scary as they said, can we get out alive and return it?" I don’t know, why are you still hiding it?”

Tian Yang broke free from his hand a little stiffly: "I'm very confused now, please let me be quiet."

"Don't worry, I'm here," Xiao Kai didn't pull him anymore, "Even if we really can't live, we can die together."

Tian Yang reluctantly raised his eyes and smiled at him, but didn't speak again.

Walking into the residential area, the first building facing you is a tall and dilapidated steeple house. Ke Xun stopped outside the door and turned to look at his companions: "Are you ready?"

"Wait—wait a minute!" The girl named Gu Qingqing among the newcomers spoke, holding the glasses on her face in panic, and pointing to the gap under the door, "What is that? Did you see it? Then— It's like blood—it's blood!"

However, under the wooden door with peeling paint, there was a black and reddish stain extending from the crack of the door, and dried up on the steps outside the door. The stain was full of dead flies and unknown bugs.

Qin Ci came up from behind, looked down at the stain, nodded and said, "It's blood, it's been dried for many years, and the dust on it is already very thick."

Ke Xun walked to the window next to the door, wiped off the accumulated dust with his hands and looked in, but the room was still dark, it seemed that even light could not penetrate the darkness inside, so that even Ke Xun's eyes were as good as Ke Xun's. Difficult to see anything inside.

"Then what should I do?" Xiao Kai said, "Do you still want to go in? There won't be... there won't be something you can't see..."

"If you don't go in now, it might be more exciting when you have to go in at night." Ke Xun didn't hesitate, "If you're afraid, you can wait outside. I'll go in."

"Ke Xun and I went to explore the way first," Mu Yiran quickly continued, "Everyone wait outside first, and after confirming that there is no danger, we will go in together to find clues."

"Then I don't think it's better than this," Shao Ling said, "Don't wait outside for others, first get a general understanding of the terrain and living conditions of this residential area, maybe you can find clues outside the house. Let's break it down Group, everyone split up and act."

There was no objection from everyone, and they were divided into four groups based on the principle of mixing old men with new men and women. Zhu Haowen was also willing to enter the house to search for clues, so he formed a group with Ke Xunmu. Shao Ling brought Wu You, He Tang and Tian Yang, Qin Ci took Luo Kuo and Gu Qingqing, Wei Dongfei took Xiao Kai.

After being divided into groups, everyone was not in a hurry to leave, but waited outside the house for Ke Xunmu Yiran and Zhu Haowen to enter the house, so as to rescue them in time in case of accidents.

Ke Xun held the doorknob, took a slight breath, and then twisted it hard.

"Click."

The door lock snapped open.

Ke Xun cautiously and slowly opened the door a crack, and a thick, rancid, and pungent dusty breath rushed out instantly. Ke Xun turned away quickly, and pulled Mu Yiran and Zhu Haowen gave it a hand.

The door, which has lost human control, makes a wrinkled and toothache sound, and slowly opens tremblingly. The skylight outside the door crashes into the darkness inside the door. At the moment when light and darkness intersect, the depths of the room In a daze, something skimmed the floor and slid past without a sound.

Ke Xun held his breath and looked at the ground inside the door. The sky was shining on it, but it was not bright, and he could barely see some traces.

Sure enough, there was a pool of blood that had dried up and turned black long ago, spreading along the cracks in the wooden floor, forming hideous and terrifying lines on the ground, surrounded by some scratches that seemed to be caused by slipping in the blood, and then to the Some of them inside are a messy, bloody footprint.

"It's human footprints." Ke Xun said.

Mu Yiran walked closer, looked down for a while, then turned to look at the inside of the door, and then said: "In this position, a person died once. He walked out and fell on the door. The blood marks were half of the man's side face and right ear. When he fell, his face hit the door, and before he fell, his face was already covered with blood.

"Since there are no other blood marks on the inside of the door except this blood mark, it can be presumed that this person never stood up after falling down.

"The question right now is where is this person's body, if it was carried away after death, why the blood on the ground was not cleaned up.

"Of course, if supernatural forces are at work, this problem will not be a problem."

"Come in?" Zhu Haowen looked at the two of them.

"Come in." Ke Xun still did not hesitate, "According to the usual practice, there is usually no danger during the day."

"But there are some things, if you can't see them during the day, it doesn't mean they don't exist." Zhu Haowen said lightly, "Do you still remember "Humanity"?"

"...You reminded me," Ke Xun said as he took out his mobile phone, called up the camera, turned on the lighting function to light up, and took a picture of the room for a while, but didn't see anything invisible to the naked eye, "It's ok , come in."

The three of them didn't delay any longer, they first greeted the people waiting outside, and then stepped into the door without looking back.

Several groups of people outside also started to move separately, each chose a direction, and quickly left the front of the room, but no one noticed that the half of the bloody face on the inside of the door, the position of the corner of the mouth, It was slowly raised, and a weird and distorted smile emerged.

Ke Xun turned on the phone's lighting function and took the lead.

The entrance of this house is a central hall, and a staircase directly opposite leads to the second floor. There are two doors on the left and right, leading to four rooms.

The string of bloody footprints extended all the way to the top of the stairs, and around the footprints, there were blood spots of various sizes.

"This man was seriously injured before he died." Ke Xun said, "Look at his footprints, almost the entire soles of his feet are soaked in blood, and there is no sign of abating all the way to the door, indicating that the blood from the wound has been Constantly pouring down."

"This person walked down barefoot," Mu Yiran said, "Most likely he was on the bed or in the bathroom before he died."

"The amount of blood is so large, it doesn't seem like an ordinary accident, could it be a murder?" Zhu Haowen said.

"So, this is a haunted house?" Ke Xun suddenly turned his head, which startled Zhu Haowen.

"What?" Mu Yiran stared at the direction Ke Xun turned his head to look at, but it was a dark, backlit corner at the corner of the stairs on the first floor.

"Something seemed to crawl over just now." Ke Xun said.

"Did you see it?" Zhu Haowen asked.

"No," Ke Xun shook his head, "I have my back turned over there, how could I see it, I just have this inexplicable feeling."

"Your feelings seem to be quite accurate." Zhu Haowen didn't regard Ke Xun's subjective feelings as nonsense, and looked at him and Mu Yiran, "So, shall we continue?"

"Continue." The two said in unison, even the calm and calm expressions on their faces were surprisingly similar.

Zhu Haowen lowered his eyes and felt that the light of the mobile phone in Ke Xun's hand was a bit dazzling, so he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned on the lighting function, and pointed to the door of the first room on the right: "Save time, I'm going to check this one out."

Ke Xun pointed to the second room: "Then I'll check this one."

Mu Yiran chose the room on the left, and the three stepped forward and carefully pushed the door open.
