Paintings of Terror

As the music sounded, the sweet NPC reminded everyone: "It's time for afternoon tea, please come to the lobby to rest~" The NPC's tone became heavier, "Be sure to wash the berry juice on your hands, and don't pollute the color!"

There were several large and small round tables covered with white lace tablecloths in the hall. Most people sat around the largest round table. Xin Beibei and Shi Zhendong sat down at the small round table, and Shi Zhendong dragged his girlfriend to join everyone.

"How old are you?" Guo Lixia asked Shi Zhendong abruptly.

Shi Zhendong's expression was a little embarrassed: "This is a tiger."

"I am a rabbit, you are one year older than me!" Guo Lixia praised her previous correct guess.

"Okay, Sister Guo, let's talk about business!" Ke Xun directly interrupted the troublesome elder sister in this group.

Guo Lixia nodded briskly: "Don't say anything, just listen to our team leader! Don't think our team leader is young, but he has a unique method and can convince the crowd!"

Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun who was sitting beside him, with a faint smile on his face.

Qin Ci took the lead to ask everyone: "Everyone was working in their respective rooms just now, did you find anything unusual?"

Everyone was just getting familiar with the environment, so they didn't have time to observe carefully.

He Yu, who has unruly long hair, said: "I found that this world is completely in line with the style of Fauvism. First of all, the composition does not pay much attention to proportions, such as the green maze and circular pool outside the castle. We walked through the long steps. When you come inside the room and look out the window, you can still see them very clearly. This kind of clarity is a close observation. If you put it in real life, this is impossible."

Mu Yiran nodded slightly, it seems that he also realized this.

He Yu continued: "Fauvism does not pay attention to perspective and light and shade. It is a flat composition that breaks the traditional Western painting style. The color of the object itself and the shadow form a strong contrast. This painting method itself is divorced from nature. , painters pay attention to subjective feelings, which is also in line with what Fauvists often say: painting is not an instruction book, but our feelings!"

So when Ke Xun first entered the painting, he had a doubt: Is this painting three-dimensional?

"But the NPC has been reminding us not to pollute the colors," Mi Wei also said, "We all know that the colors of Fauvism are free, and there is even a feeling of indiscriminateness, such as Matisse's In the famous "Lady Wearing a Hat", the woman's face boldly uses green, red, yellow and blue, and the interweaving of these colors."

Guo Lixia was also seriously participating in the meeting. After listening to Mi Wei's words word by word, she sighed: "Can I still watch it..."

Mi Wei smiled shortly at Guo Lixia: "On the contrary, those colors are very harmonious on Mrs. Matisse's face. While full of harmony, they are also extremely decorative."

Guo Lixia rubbed her eyes, not quite understanding.

Shi Zhendong nodded: "What the students said just now is very valuable, especially about the pool and the labyrinth. Since they can be observed at close range from any direction, are these two things the artist wants to highlight? "

Several old people who had experienced painting all admired Shi Zhendong. Qin Ci said: "We can focus on those two places to search, maybe the artist's signature is near there."

Zhu Haowen also opened his mouth suddenly: "The name of this painting is "Shadow". The shadows in this world are indeed different. It is better to observe carefully—there may be signatures hidden in the shadows, or fatal dangers may be hidden."

This topic was a bit heavy. Everyone subconsciously looked at the shadows under their feet. In the hall room, everyone's shadows were the same dark purple with lime green borders.

Qin Ci stood up and poured the black tea from the teapot for everyone: "Everyone should try to eat as much as possible, we don't know when dinner will be arranged."

Ke Xun and Weidong were basically full. Weidong took a sip of black tea with sugar and milk, and felt that it would be no problem for him to last until night: "The problem now is that our time during the day has also been arranged by the NPC, so we can only Locked in the room to work, and come out to eat and rest when the time comes, when can we go outside to find autographs? We can’t go at night.”

Everyone fell silent, this is indeed a matter that needs to be resolved urgently.

Ke Xun said: "Since we are asked to work, there will definitely be a lot of tasks, but the NPC has not yet said. Once the daily workload is determined, we can arrange tasks by role. Some people stay to work, and some people go out. Find a signature!"

Wei Dong then said: "The NPC just doesn't let us cross the room to pollute the color, but it doesn't restrict us to go out, at least it doesn't say it clearly! We should be able to go out as long as we ensure that the workload is completed!"

Everyone thought it made sense. After finishing the afternoon tea, they went back to their rooms to work, trying to complete the task as soon as possible and gain free time.

The voice of the NPC came to mind again, and it really arranged the workload for everyone: "Before dinner, each room must complete three large jars of berries. Please hurry up and enjoy the beauty brought by your work!"

There were only two people in the red room, He Yu and Zhang Tianwei, but these two boys' hands-on ability was not bad, and they quickly completed the labor tasks of the three cans.

Everyone in the yellow room was also actively working, and Mi Wei suddenly stopped their work: "Have you noticed that the color of these berries is not as bright as before?"

Miao Zipei, who didn't talk much, also said: "I just discovered that not only these berries, but also those shadows, the color has become darker." He said and looked at the patterns on his clothes, "Including these embroidered ones The colors are also getting darker."

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and it was Zhang Tianwei and He Yu who walked in. He Yu said excitedly: "Have you found out? This world distinguishes day and night by color changes! There is no light and shadow refraction at all!"

Several students were caught up in the excitement of discovering new knowledge: "It's hard to imagine how the night here will be expressed!"

Qin Ci was sullen, and said sharply to He Yu, "Why didn't you wash your hands!"

Everyone was taken aback by Doctor Qin's sudden sternness, and turned to look at He Yu's hand, which was still stained with obvious red juice.

He Yu rubbed his hands: "I...I didn't pollute the color..."

"Go back to the room and wash your hands!" Mi Wei urged He Yu.

Perhaps these young people have not experienced the death incidents in this world, so they did not realize the fatal danger brought by this kind of behavior. Zhang Tianwei also came to comfort Qin Ci: "I'm sorry, He Yu is such a casual character. His hands are full of paint, and he often washes his hands hastily, so his hands are often colorful."

Seeing Zhang Tianwei's clean hands, Qin Ci calmed down a little: "Student Zhang, I advise you to leave this room first, we don't understand what the NPC means by 'don't bring colors to other rooms' ——If the conditions are harsh, even if we wash our hands, we will not be able to drop by.”

Zhang Tianwei looked a little embarrassed: "Okay then, I'll go out first, let's talk in the hall."

When everyone finished the task and came to the hall, they found that the color of the room was obviously darkened, the fruit and bread on the table almost turned gray, and everyone's shadows were slowly turning black.

"Please have dinner together!" NPC's voice rang enthusiastically, "After dinner, everyone can go to the dormitory on the second floor to rest. The colors are still divided according to the previous ones. Please remember your own colors! Don't pollute the colors !"

When everyone heard about He Yu and Zhang Tianwei's foul incident, they were speechless for a while. Several students comforted each other. stain color.

Several people who had experienced painting looked at each other tacitly, and made a cruel analysis in their hearts: He Yu and Zhang Tianwei just formed two levels of fouls. The second is to enter other rooms after washing hands. Neither of the two results caused visible pollution to the color of the room. I don’t know if I will be punished tonight.

Once someone escapes death tonight, it proves that such behavior does not constitute a death condition, and everyone can follow suit the next day.

Shi Zhendong subconsciously looked at the pool outside through the window, and found that the fountain stopped spraying water at some point, and the green maze had turned gray-green, as if it had suddenly lost its vitality.

"It's getting dark, let's go back and rest early." Ke Xun looked up at the ceiling, but there was no trace of lights there. Maybe the world is dark at night.

Everyone went up the stairs to the second floor one after another, but Mu Yiran went to the window to observe the outside again, and found that the key scenery outside had become pure black. In order to distinguish, the lawn steps and other areas have become dark and light Different shades of gray.

"From the current point of view, this painting has very strict requirements on the color." Ke Xun stood beside Mu Yiran and looked at the engraving-like scenery outside the window. Even if it is gray, it is also a gray with high purity and fullness. "The colors in this world don't have any transition, a bit like a child's drawing."

"The Fauvism does retain the innocence of a child." Mu Yiran's eyes were still staring at the increasingly dark window, and his voice suddenly dropped: "It's best to be cautious on the first night, it's best not to go out."

Ke Xun had a kind of happiness of being told, but this time he was very obedient and didn't climb along the pole, but gave a low "um".

The two walked down the dark stairs to the second floor.

The layout of the second floor is exactly the same as that of the first floor, and there is also a hall. The five doors that were originally brightly colored turned gray at this time. Ke Xun could only knock on the blue door that was originally blue according to his own memory: "Sister Guo, are you in there?"

There was a quick response from inside: "The team leader is back!"

The door opened from the inside, and Guo Lixia's skirt was covered with black and white circular patterns, which looked very strange at night.

Ke Xun still worriedly knocked on the door next to him. According to his memory, this should be Mu Yiran's purple room: "Dongzi, are you in there?"

"Fuck, Ke Er, don't mess around, don't hang around!" Wei Dong's voice sounded from inside.

Mu Yiran nodded to Ke Xun, then pushed open the door.

"Good night!" Ke Xun returned to his room after saying this, and found two wooden beds in the dark room.

"Team leader, she won't sleep with me, and I don't want to sleep next to her!" Guo Lixia's voice fluctuated in the darkness, but her whole body moved in the room like a pattern of black dots on a white background.

Ke Xun's pattern is a white background with black wavy patterns. At this time, the pattern trembled slightly: "Sister Guo, what do you want?"

"You choose, to sleep with me or with her?" Guo Lixia asked frankly.

"..."

The pattern of black dots on a white background lay directly on a bed: "Anyway, the two of us share a bed, and you can sleep wherever you want."

On the other bed was a thin and small black diamond pattern on a white background. The pattern made Xin Beibei's voice: "That won't work. I'm not used to sleeping with strangers. Besides, the team leader is still a man."

"You guys finally know that I'm a man." Wave pattern made a tearless voice.

Diamond turned over and seemed to be asleep.

Suddenly the whole room turned completely black, as if covered by a huge black cloth, and all the patterns of the three people disappeared.
