Paintings of Terror

Shao Ling said: "There is no one in the entire living area. The area is not very large. After a short walk, we can enter the forest behind. We walked around the outer area of ​​the forest and found that it is not a dead forest. There are many living animals, and the plant species are also quite rich.”

Qin Ci said: "We found a lot of blood on the road in the residential area, on the outside of the house and in some other corners. It has been a long time. There are no signs of fighting or even running away after being injured. It seems that it is simply There was blood in the process of walking around, and in a few places, we found signs of someone bleeding and falling and knocking over nearby items, and the strange thing is that these knocked over items just remained in place, without People come to deal with the aftermath."

Wei Dongdao: "In addition to ordinary houses, there is a small community clinic in this residential area, and there is another road leading to the distance, but there are roadblocks on this road, we tried to walk along the road to the distance , I found that there was no way while walking, and there was chaos in front of me, just like the painting "Bai Shi", the edge areas have been blurred, obviously this is also a limited type of painting, which limits us to It is within the range of the residential area and the forest here."

Ke Xun also told everyone what the three of them had seen just now, and Shao Ling said after listening: "It seems that this residential area has experienced a strange or even weird change, making people's daily life like It was suddenly stopped in an instant, and all scenes remained the same, and in the process, many people suffered injuries of varying degrees."

"These are only preliminary inferences at present," Mu Yiran said, "We have only checked one house, and we need to check the internal conditions of other houses to get more evidence to confirm."

"Then let's hurry up and continue," Ke Xun said, looking at the crowd in front of him, "What about you?"

Qin Ci said: "I will inspect the house with you."

Shao Ling Weidong and Fang Fei also nodded.

Xiao Kai scratched the back of his neck, glanced at Tian Yang, then at the old members, and finally his eyes fell on Ke Xun's face: "Let me ask a digression first: How did you solve the problem of eating and drinking when you entered the world in the painting?" question?"

"Some paintings will provide relevant supplies, while others will not make you feel hungry or thirsty." Ke Xun answered him.

"Then what kind of situation do you think this painting belongs to?" Xiao Kai asked with some uncertainty, "At least now I feel a little thirsty. This should not belong to the second situation you just mentioned, right? If it is the first In one case, where will the relevant materials be located?

"I think it is important to find autographs, but first of all, we must ensure that we can survive in the painting. In this hot weather, food and water are very important. After all, we are likely to live in the painting for seven days, right?

"Food can be secondary, but water is essential, especially now that it's so hot, if you don't replenish water in time, you may suffer from dehydration and heat stroke.

"And I think it's best not to think about looking for it when the situation is imminent. You should make sufficient preparations in advance, at least prepare some drinking water first, what do you think?"

"Oh, what you said makes sense," Ke Xun said, pointing to the house behind him, "Drinking water may be found in these houses, but I don't know if the water pipes inside can still flow water, even if it can flow out When the water comes, I don’t know if it’s safe to drink, but I still need to go into the house to make sure.”

Xiao Kai scratched his neck and nodded: "There is another question. You have said that it will be dangerous to go outside at night in the painting. Should we first find a place that is convenient for us to stay at night? For example, one of these houses is not So the house that makes people feel like that, just... a little cleaner?"

"To be honest," Ke Xun said privately to Mu Yiran when everyone went to check other houses separately, "I think this painting is more dangerous inside the house than outside."

The people were still divided into four groups and went to check other houses separately.

This time, the house that Ke Xun and the others entered was better than the previous one. At least there was no blood-stained thing when they opened the door, but the house was still covered with thick dust and there were cobwebs all over the corners. Like the house, all the facilities and conditions in this house maintain a life scene that stops abruptly.

The three rushed to the kitchen first. Ke Xun turned on the water pipe, but no water came out. Zhu Haowen checked all the valves. No matter how hard he turned it, no water came out.

Then check the resources needed for life such as electricity and gas, and the supply has also been stopped.

Mu Yiran opened the refrigerator, and the situation inside was horrible. Due to the power outage, the food in the refrigerator had become something indescribable. What made Ke Xun admire his man so much was that Mu Yiran still I was able to rummage through the refrigerator to find some sealed packaged food without changing my face.

"This is definitely not edible." Ke Xun reminded the man.

"I just want to look at the production date to determine the era depicted in this painting." Mu Yiran glanced at him.

"I'm a man with a delicate heart." Ke Xun gave him a thumbs up.

Mu Yiran ignored his rainbow fart, and carefully checked these sealed packaged foods, only to find that the production dates and specific years printed on all the foods were blurred, only the leading 2 could be seen clearly, the month and date They are all still there, and they are different, but Mu Yiran feels that this is useless for finding clues, but the blurred year is definitely useful.

"This painting doesn't want us to know the inexplicable events that happened here, and in what time it happened." Ke Xun said, "That is to say, if we can know the specific time of this year, it will help us find the signature .”

"We can look for things in the house that can be related to the date, such as calendars, month cards, newspapers, and other items with production dates." Zhu Haowen said.

"I don't think the result will be optimistic," Ke Xun said, "Since even the date on the food packaging bag is blurred, other things that directly point to the date must have the same result, unless we use some physical objects Infer age."

"This can be placed in the next arrangement. The most important thing at the moment is to find water," Mu Yiran said, "I think the water problem and the climate problem are likely to be what we will face in this painting, except for some unknown things. The biggest challenge outside of this is not to be taken lightly."

The three of them searched the whole house thoroughly. In addition to searching hard for water and food, they also searched for relevant clues. Of course, the result was nothing, no water, no edible food, and nothing that seemed to be available. clues.

After coming out of this house, the three went straight to the next house, during which members of other groups could be seen walking or entering and exiting between two houses.

Unknowingly, the whole morning passed like this, and when everyone got together again, the time on the phone was already past 12 noon.

"I've searched everything, but there is no drinking water," Shao Ling said, "and there is no edible food. There are some vacuum-sealed packaged foods, but I can't see them clearly because of the production date, although they don't seem to have deteriorated after opening." , but it is still not sure whether it is still possible to enter. I think this time we will not only face unknown dangers, but also face the most basic challenge of survival."

"Besides these, are there any other discoveries?" Mu Yiran asked.

"There are a lot of bloodstains in almost every house," Qin Ci said, "if the amount of bleeding is not mixed with many people, it is almost equivalent to the blood volume of a person's whole body. After analyzing the shape of these bloodstains Observing, I found that some flowed down and dripped on the floor, and some remained on the wall or ceiling in the form of splashing, which made me a little puzzled. Is the same happening in every household?"

Everyone looked around in silence for a while. These dilapidated and quiet houses stood upright under the gray sky. Each house was like a small purgatory on earth, filled with strange and shocking ways. human blood.

What kind of terrible event happened in this place?

"It's better to find a way to find water as soon as possible." Qin Ci looked at the dry-mouthed people, especially Xiao Kai, whose lips were already chapped, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

"If we can't find water in the residential area, we can only go into the forest to check." Shao Ling pointed to the forest behind the residential area. There are many towering ancient trees, it should be a natural ancient forest.

Everyone cheered up and walked through the residential area to the edge of the forest.

Judging from the types of plants, this seems to be a forest close to the tropics, with many tropical plants growing, and the moisture in the forest is also very strong, and the sharp insects rang out continuously, causing headaches.

"In such a forest, poisonous insects and snakes are the most feared. It is best to cover your exposed skin," Mu Yiran said to everyone before entering the forest. Don’t get distracted when you’re talking, pay more attention to what’s in front of you and around you.”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked for suitable branches, and wrapped the clothes they had taken off around their heads, faces and hands.

"Let's enter in a single file," Ke Xun said, "Yi Ran and I are at the front, Mr. Shao, Dong Zi, Luo Luo, the three of you are in the middle, Brother Qin Haowen's son Fang Fei, the three of you are at the end, and the rest of you are at the end of us." Between three groups of people.

"When we were marching, Yiran and I were responsible for staring at the front, the person walking in the middle was responsible for watching the left and right and the head, and the person walking at the end was responsible for watching the rear.

"New members, listen up. No matter what happens, you must not fall behind, and you must not panic and run around. Follow the large group. If you are separated from everyone, if you can stay where you are, try to stay where you are. If you stay where you are, try to walk in the direction of the residential area. We will try our best to rescue the lost people on the premise of keeping our own safety.

"When you hear me yell 'run', turn your head and run back immediately, don't ask anything, don't hesitate, run first and then talk, run as fast as you want, don't worry about anything, unless you hear me yell ' Stop', otherwise keep running.

"Finally, be very careful, don't touch things that shouldn't be touched, keep calm when encountering insects, snakes or wild animals, and notify others in time. Do you hear clearly?"
