Paintings of Terror

The room was surprisingly quiet, everyone's eyes were on Mu Yiran's face, waiting for the most critical analysis to reveal the secret.

In order to express it more clearly, Mu Yiran simply picked up the pen and drew a straight line on a piece of white paper: "Assuming this is a timeline, from point A to point B, it is the time we are currently working on," Mu Yiran Marked A and B on both ends of the straight line, and drew a forward arrow, "The other timeline is as long as ours, but it walks in a different direction. Even, the two timelines themselves are Coincident.-It's like the same highway, divided into two lanes, and the vehicles on both sides are facing each other. Regardless of which side, the other side is retrograde."

Everyone is silent, even if they have a small question in their minds, they want to wait until after listening to them.

Mu Yiran drew another arrow below this straight line. This arrow was the opposite direction from point B to point A, which was the opposite of the arrow above.

"No matter how outrageous and chaotic the time in the painting is, the overall rules of the painting should not be disrupted. Our time in the painting is seven days. This time period has hardly changed. The same is true in the current "Adverse Travel." Will change," Mu Yiran drew a few vertical lines on the straight line with a pen, and divided the straight line into seven evenly. "The seven lines on the wall should represent seven days. This is another'we' for everyone. Do your best to remind and emphasize.

"What I have been unable to figure out is what the intersecting point of the two time points is. The things like turning on the lights and forcing to fall asleep made me misjudge for a long time, until... Ke Xun brought these two wooden ducks back. This should be another thing. The'we' do our best to leave us the information reminder within the range that can be carried out!

"Only one of the two wooden ducks can only live on the water, no matter how you reverse the change, only one can live." Mu Yiran's expression was a little bit sad, "This discovery made me find two The point where the timelines intersect is death."

"No, I didn't understand," Luo Yi couldn't help muttering, "The fat uncle said, after death, I can see another self, does that mean?"

Mu Yi nodded: "Yes, because sooner or later, the'we' of both sides will definitely overlap at their respective death points. Now, both Xi Shengnan and Lu Heng have completed this."

"I still don't understand. Even if the two sides start from two points opposite each other, does this happen at the same time? How do I feel that a lot of things on their side seem to have happened." Mai Peng said.

Mu Yiran looked at Mai Peng: "Is your cold gone?"

Mai Peng was shocked and cleared his throat for verification: "It's strange, I was so dizzy and almost fainted on the way to the funeral. When the rope tied to the coffin was passed down at the window, the cold wind was almost overwhelming. I'm out of conscious blowing...Why is it like a okay person now? What the **** is going on?"

"This is the impact of another timeline on us, the other'you', because you helped Lu Heng support the coffin and the cold wind blown at the window caused a cold, so your cold is a strange retrograde state," Mu Yiran said "This is just a kind of magnetic field-like influence generated between two timelines. This infectious force is not so rigorous, but we have discovered the clues. We believe that the'them' on the other line are also affected by us Yes, but'they' seem to have realized earlier than us.

"This also corresponds to the problem mentioned by Mai Peng just now. I feel that the other party's action seems to be earlier than us. It seems that many things have happened on their side. In fact, there is no sooner or later, and there is no speed. It lies in where our line runs.

"Everyone continue to look at the picture. We started from point A. On the first night, the death of Xi Shengnan occurred. On the second night, something happened to Lu Heng again." Mu Yiran's pen was on the second frame marked by the vertical line. "When we went to the second day, the other party was on the fifth day, when we went to the first day, the other party was on the sixth day, when we just entered the painting, the other party has ended seven days. This is why the photo we just entered shows Du Lingyu drawing a line on the wall. Although it is not clear, it can be concluded that she is drawing the seventh line."

Du Lingyu didn’t know anything about the photo because of his absence just now, but when he heard Mu Yiran’s words, he nodded and said, “Yes, I always feel that the seventh line on the wall is very much like mine. Handwriting."

Zhu Haowen stood up with a complicated expression. He seemed to have no thoughts when he wanted to sit down again. He simply paced the room: "So, everyone's life span in this world is the same, right."

Mu Yiran sighed silently: "Yes, Fang Fei heard about lifespan in the witch house of the Fluorite Brigade. Regardless of the lifespan of the NPCs in this world, the lifespan of those of us outside the painting here is only seven days. After seven days, I was powerless.

"Death is said to be complete by people here, because people on two timelines will meet because of death, just like the two ends of a rope finally meet, knotted, and become a complete rope loop. According to This statement, Xi Shengnan and Lu Heng have been fulfilled."

Mu Yiran took out another pen and dipped it with cinnabar: "The red line is our current timeline, and the black line is the timeline of ‘their’. This is more intuitive."

Mu Yiran wrote the name of Xi Shengnan below, followed by a straight line, divided into seven grids, the red line is only one grid short, and the black line is six grids long.

Mu Yiran wrote Lu Heng's name in the same way, his line was two to five points, red occupies two grids, and black occupies five grids.

"To put it more precisely, the timeline is actually everyone's lifeline." Mu Yiran said.

Everyone is a little awakened. In fact, this timeline is extremely fair in a sense. Everyone has only seven days in this world. No matter how the two lines run, how can one evade the two timelines. , Neither can escape the fate of seven days, and the total time of the two timelines will always be seven days.

Qin Ci couldn't believe it: "In other words,'they' are actually fighting with us for time and life span? Life span, isn't life span just time..."

Ke Xun listened to the side for a long time, and now finally figured it out: "I don't think so. The'we' on the other line is not someone else, not the NPC in the painting.'They' are us.'They' should They won’t compete with us, they should be able to make the right choice."

Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun with a little pity in his eyes.

Ke Xun continued: "Why is it struggling instead of concession?"

Everyone was obviously taken aback by what Ke Xun said, and looked at him in disbelief.

Mu Yiran said in a deep voice, "'they' also discovered this incident very quickly, and even unexpectedly realized the magical powers of emptiness and reality-at least some of the'them' judged where they were. This timeline is a dashed line, and the opposite line is a solid line. The only person who can find the signature to go out smoothly is the opposite! So..."

Mu Yi could not say anything for a while.

Ke Xun took a deep breath, and then he said: "So, the ducks on the bottom are willing to sink to the bottom and let the ducks on the water swim to the opposite shore as much as possible."

"So, they did everything possible to leave us with all kinds of evidence, hoping to be alert to us." Shao Ling also understood, "and they, resolutely and resolutely, made the final sacrifice in order to retreat."

Ke Xun looked at Du Lingyu standing in the corner, and suddenly understood what she was saying-the so-called "destructive way forward without any compromise or hesitation"; the so-called "we will all accompany you." To you"; the so-called "a step backward is to move forward longer." ——All of us come together to take this step. Although this step may be a step backward, this step backward is to move forward in the longer term! Although this step backwards may be an abyss, but in exchange for eternal light.

There was a soft sobbing sound in the room. It was Du Lingyu in the corner. Her red and swollen eyes raised her head: "I vaguely remembered something, yes, that's it. I am the last one because I am timid. Don't dare to die... Ke Xun was the first one. After thinking about this, Ke Xun was the first person to sacrifice himself... He told me: Don't be afraid, we will all be with you... He That's what he told me...but I didn't listen to him..."

At this point, Du Lingyu could not cry.

When Zhu Haowen heard this, his eyes were a little red, and he looked at Ke Xun: "The first... Ke Xun you... You are so **** fucking!"

Mu Yiran worked hard to adjust his emotions: "If, if the'Ke Xun' on the other line maintains his lifespan within two days, he will gain five days of life for today's Ke Xun. Finding signatures won more time."

Everyone suddenly understood the content of the photo last night. Every old member had a sad expression in the photo. At that time, it should be Ke Xun who left first.

"How could we not be together?" Ke Xun looked at Mu Yiran.

"Maybe I am timid." Mu Yiran couldn't believe it. At this time, he could actually make a joke. He came forward and hugged Ke Xun hard, as if to The big man rubbed into his heart thoroughly, so that the two would never be separated, "At that time, we must have a strategic plan, everyone's division of labor is different...Learn from them, they are really good."

Wei Dong wiped a tear with the back of his hand: "Hurry up, the time they bought for us can't be left unused. Hurry up and find an autograph! Go to the cold night trip!"

"Go to the cold night tour?" Mai Peng was a little puzzled.

Weidong has already begun to pack things up: "While packing up and talking, hurry up."

"Brother Dong, we still have a picture of the white fish that hasn't been enlarged yet." Luo Wei said with a thick nasal voice.

"Oh, by the way, look at the photos first!" Wei Dong stopped his hands quickly and quickly loaded the four negatives into the projector, "turn off the lights and look at the big screen!"

The lights in the room quickly went out, and the patterns on the wall light curtains gradually became clear.
