Mu Yiran's voice was cold and full of texture. It was a kind of stretch, deep, cool and elastic voice. Listening to him, Ke Xun felt that his old man's ears were almost pregnant.

"None of us know what the whole thing is. Everyone is drawn in by the painting. The world you are in now is the world depicted in the painting. The only way to get out of this world is to find a "signature" and make sure that you can live forever. " Mu Yi Ran's tone was flat, and he seemed not to be flustered by the present situation.

"What is a signature? How to find it? " Asked Ke Xun.

"The signature of the painter," Mu Yi Ran replied, "some painters will sign their names or initials on their paintings. If it is Chinese painting, we may need to look for the seal of the painter. Only by finding the signature or seal of the artist can you leave the world in the painting. "

"It's too abstract. What's the difference between looking for a signature all over the world and looking for a needle in a haystack?" Wei Dong interposed, "in case this signature is signed under which tile on the roof? Do we have to go through all the roof tiles in the world? "

"The place where the signature is located is closely related to the content of the painting. If you read the painting and get clues, you can find the signature." Mu Yi Ran said.

“…… I'm afraid it's not for a year and a half. " Wei Dong has a dull face.

Mu Yi ran a light look at him: "those who can't be found in seven days will die."

"Shit!" Ke Xun and Wei Dongqi were shocked, "really or not?"

"If you don't believe it, try it," Liu Yufei, a little pigtail, smiles. "You can do nothing these seven days, and see if you can die after seven days."

"No - how to die? All of a sudden, I'm out of breath when I lie on the ground, or what? " Wei Dong asked.

Liu Yufei grinned nervously: "there are many ways to die. There are only things you can't think of. You can't die without you."

"How -- how could this happen..." Weidong is still unbelievable.

"What is the reason for this?" Kexun also felt incredible, "who made the rules? Who has the right to decide our life and death? Who has the uncanny ability to get a living person into a painting? "

Mu Yi Ran looks at him, light way: "do not know."

"I want to go back I refuse to accept this I'm just an ordinary person. I just want to live an ordinary life. Why does this kind of thing fall on me? " Weidong hugs his head and falls into helplessness and panic.

The further you recognize the reality you are in, the more fear and panic.

"Shut up!" Liu Yufei's mood is not stable, Weidong's panic also draws out his fear of forcibly covering up, "you give me quiet! If you want to die, you should die by yourself, don't bother me

Said very nervously and nervously looking left and right, as if afraid to disturb something in the dark.

Wei Dong quickly shut his mouth. Seeing his white face, he shivered and looked around for a while. However, the night seemed deeper and thicker than before. The thick gray fog had covered the whole village. It seemed that something was squatting there and slowly opened his dark mouth.

Wei Dong did not dare to turn his eyes as hard as he could.

However, Kexun didn't care about him at the moment. He was leaning his head and continuing to talk with Mu Yi Ran, trying to find out more information.

"How do you know what you just said? For example, you can only go out if you find your signature or seal. If you can't find it, you will die in seven days. Who told you that? " Asked Ke Xun.

Mu Yi didn't look at him either. He looked at the thick fog in front of him calmly and calmly: "no one told me that this is my third painting. All the known clues are summarized from the first two paintings."

"The third one?" Weidong was shocked again, "what do you mean?"

"It means that even if you're lucky enough to get out of the picture, you'll get to the next picture again." Liu Yufei in the next tone ridicule to answer the words, listen carefully, this mockery also with a few silk tragic meaning.

"Why?" Wei Dong couldn't help but ask, "didn't you just go back to the real world from the painting? Why do you want to paint? "

"I don't know," Liu Yufei shrugged and raised his finger to the sky. "The boss is forced to enter. If you don't, you will die."

"How to die? Is it possible to control the real world Wei Dong's eyes were filled with despair.

"I don't know. Maybe." Liu Yufei's face was numb. "Anyway, no matter in the real world or in this painting world, we are all mole ants. We are always playing with the power of the upper, upper and upper levels. However, as the saying goes, mole ants still steal their lives. Even if they know that they can't escape from the upper level, most people will try their best to survive, right?"

"But why me?" Wei Dong tugged at his hair fiercely, "I'm just an ordinary person. I used to live a very ordinary life. Why did I choose to experience such a strange thing?""How to say that," Liu Yufei ridiculed the crooked corners of his mouth, "you deserve bad luck."

Wei Dong doesn't speak any more. If he wants to deceive himself when he first came in and regards all this as a dream or a temporary bug that only happens occasionally in space and time, he has completely recognized the "reality" in front of him.

He couldn't say a word any more. He could only hold his head in his hands helplessly and pull his hair desperately. His eyes and face were filled with fear, reluctance and despair.

"Dongzi," Kexun grabbed him and pressed hard in his arms. "It's OK. Don't worry. If you raise your spirits, we can go back. Everything has a cause and a result. I don't believe that we can't find the source of this matter. When we were children, Nintendo games were not for nothing. We broke the customs and dried up the old man Isn't it all our specialty? "

"Nonsense, soul duel can have 30 lives, and super Mary can win a little green mushroom Award for one person. Is there a head here? Really? We're just ordinary people with only one life. We don't even have a weapon to defend ourselves. Maybe we'll play over when we're not careful. " Wei Dong lowered his head in dismay, and his voice sounded a bit spirited.

"Come on, don't think about it," Ke Xun said calmly and naturally. "Without weapons, we have to have courage. Even if we are mole ants, we will die on the bodies of elephants."

Mu Yi Ran, who was walking beside him, looked at Ke Xun with a slanting face, but happened to be looking at Ke Xun unintentionally.

Two people's eyes met, and Ke Xun gave him a casual smile, with a trace of meaningless and fearless in the corner of his lips.

There are all kinds of people who enter the painting, but who can know when they will live.

Mu Yi Ran moved away his sight and looked forward again.

In the thick gray night fog ahead, three old locust trees were standing by the edge of a dilapidated house.

"Here comes the Li family." Liu Yufei took a breath, his voice was stiff and nervous.

Kexun looked at him sensitively: "what's wrong?"

Liu Yufei didn't prevent him from asking so. His eyes flickered and looked at him. He tilted his mouth and said, "no, go in."

Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Kexun didn't ask again.

the door of the yard was open, and Liu Yufei pushed the door forward and made a "creak" sound. However, the harsh sound did not spread far in the silent night. As soon as it spread, it was swallowed up in the thick fog.

As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, Kexun and Weidong were almost shocked by the scene, and Liu Yufei couldn't help but scold in a low voice.

The courtyard of the Li family is not small. It has a courtyard system. The walls are surrounded by broken fences. There are rooms on all sides. However, outside the three main rooms in the north, white curtains and long flags are hung. On both sides of the door, there are large strings of paper money and gold coins stacked with yellow and white paper. Two paper pasted boys and girls in colorful clothes are placed with bright and happy eyes At the door.

Just like, it's a spirit hall.

"Lying trough? Horizontal trough -- horizontal trough! " Wei Dong's whole body trembled, and Liu Yufei's face was also pumping. Ke Xun looked at his left and right. He saw that the only one of the four people who could keep calm was Mu Yi Ran, but he could still detect a trace of seriousness and vigilance in his eyes.

"No wonder we are dressed like this." Liu Yufei looked down at his body.

Isn't it mourning clothes. Ke Xun was depressed. He wanted to take it off and throw it on the ground. But considering that there was no skin in his clothes, he had to give up.

"Let's go." Mu Yi gave Ke Xun a light look.

The man who got the "central" cloth guard the Li's granary.

Ke Xun looked around and saw a piece of white paper pasted on the door of the wing room in the west of the yard, with the word "grain" written on it in black.

On the door of the inverted house on the south side of the courtyard, there is also a word "Chai" written in black and white. Wei Dong and Liu Yufei, who took out the cloth with the word Gu, wanted to go to the wood house to cut firewood.

Wei Dong trembled and whispered in a low voice. The door of the wood room was facing the door of the main room and the spirit hall in the north. The two paper covered boys and girls laughed at the door of the wood room.

"Dongzi, be careful." Kexun shook Weidong's shoulder, leaned to his ear, and lowered his voice, "there should be an axe for chopping firewood in the firewood room. Hold your hand. Be alert. Don't be sleepy. Call me if you can't. If you can't, run outside the yard."

"Know, know Be careful... " Wei Dong trembles his voice and reluctantly follows Liu Yufei to the firewood room.

Ke Xun followed Mu Yi Ran to the granary in the west chamber and pushed the door in. A mixed smell of dust and rotten grain came to him. Ke Xun was not choked by the smell of smoke. He held his nose and stood at the door.

Mu Yi Ran, however, seemed unable to smell it. He went straight in, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, lit the screen, and swept around the room with the light of the screen. He saw dozens of sacks, large and small, piled up in the corner of the room. The window sash was made of solid wood, tightly closed, and could not penetrate into the room. Of course, there was no light at night.

"Come in and close the door." Mu Yi Ran turned his head and looked at Ke Xun."Let's ventilate first. The smell can't even live in it." Kexun said.

"Come in and close the door." Mu Yi Ran did not move to repeat coldly.

“…… You've been reborn as a repeater Kexun sighed and stepped forward to close the door.

"The bolt is in." Mu Yi Ran continued to cool the way.

"Handsome boy, have you ever heard of the word" self ligation "? It's hard to run if you have something to do Kexun looked at him with his head tilted.

"You think it's safer out there?" It's cold.

Ke Xun was stunned and silently turned back and bolted the door.

Mu Yi Ran turned off the mobile phone screen, and the house fell into a pitch black, with only breathless dust and putrefaction around.

"What's next?" Asked Ke Xun.

"Stay." In the dark, the sound of Mu Yi Ran was more cool and profound.

"Just Stay? " After two steps, Kexun found that the darkness was too deep, which made people feel as if they were in the upper and lower void of the universe. Every step out of the room was like falling into a black hole with no limit. There was no sense of steadiness.

From his pocket he took out his mobile phone and flashed on the screen. He found that he had already sat on the sack in the corner of the room and closed his eyes to raise his spirits.

"Just stay here? Nothing to do? " Kexun went to ask him.

"You can sleep, too." But he did not open his eyes.

"Don't we have to look in this room for signatures or seals?" Kexun squatted down beside him and photographed his face with the mobile phone screen.

From such a close look, this man's skin is really too good. Under the light of the screen, his facial features are more three-dimensional and profound, like the most finely polished sculpture.

"If it's so easy to find, there won't be a dead man in this painting." Mu Yi Ran was slightly frowned by his mobile phone, "I advise you to save the power of your mobile phone and save it for use when necessary. There is no place for charging in this painting, and you have to stay here for seven days. Of course, if you die tonight, you can use it

Kexun quickly turned off his mobile phone and sat down on the sack beside him: "look at you, what a hatred. If you don't mind, I'll die early to supplement your life or how?"

Mu Yi did not pay attention to him.

Kexun was silent for a long time. In the darkness, he could only hear the light breath of Mu Yi Ran, but he did not hear the movement outside the granary.

In fact, he would like to know the three people who had drawn the "people" banner - according to the old man's arrangement, they would be responsible for the vigil tonight.

Since it is necessary to watch the night, it is necessary to guard in the spirit hall.

In the main room full of mourning flags, I wonder if Dead body?
