Kaleidoscope of Death

According to what Ruan Nanzhu said, even if they were pulled into the painting, the ghosts could not directly attack them.

But since there is a picture frame inlaid behind the glass in front of him, it means that almost every person who comes here to go to the bathroom has been framed by a picture frame - but I don't know why the woman chose Lin Qiushi in the end.

"Look at his appearance." Ruan Nanzhu said casually, "He is cuter."

Tan Zaozao stared at the words: "Then why wasn't I pulled in?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Are you cute?"

Tan Zaozao: "..." Ruan Nanzhu, if you say this outside, you will die, do you know that?

All in all, there seemed to be a lot of picture frames hidden in this old castle. At least after returning to the bedroom, Ruan Nanzhu found several more.One is hidden on the right side of the mirror, and the other is hidden in the bedside table. Ruan Nanzhu even found a hidden compartment from the ceiling, and the dark compartment is the picture frame. No wonder he was also the subject of the portrait.And what Yang Meishu did was just a cover-up for the hostess. It seems that the ghosts in this world are really wise, and the wisdom is not low.

After turning out all the picture frames in the room, Ruan Nanzhu smashed them all unceremoniously.After smashing it, I told the people in the team about it, and asked them to look for it and try to find out all the frames.

I don't know if it's Lin Qiushi's illusion, but he always felt that the hostess looked at Ruan Nanzhu that morning with a particularly resentful look, as if he wanted to peel him off.

Ruan Nanzhu didn't know whether he didn't feel it or didn't care at all. He still sat calmly at the table and ate the delicious steak without being affected in the slightest.

But even though everyone started looking for the picture frame, it was still too late. The next morning, someone disappeared again and turned into a gorgeous painting.

Ruan Nanzhu took a look at the painting, and then found a flat picture frame from under the man's carpet. Lin Qiushi held the picture frame and sighed: "This is okay?"

He put the picture frame aside, shook his head and said, "It's really hard to guard against."

Ruan Nanzhu: "It is indeed impossible to guard against, so we had better find the key as soon as possible." He said, "I always feel that she is getting more and more unscrupulous."

Lin Qiushi nodded.

Ruan Nanzhu's intuition was obviously right, and that night, that woman appeared outside their window again.

On a quiet rainy night, the woman stood in the middle of the desolate courtyard, the rain fell on her body, she raised her head slightly, and showed a ferocious smile towards the balcony where Ruan Nanzhu was.

Ruan Nanzhu was smoking outside, and when he saw the woman, he didn't speak, his expression was quite indifferent, and he just said: "She is standing outside."

Lin Qiushi walked to his side and saw the scenery outside.

Ordinary people would have been intimidated when they saw this woman, that is, Ruan Nanzhu, who could look at her indifferently without stage fright, and in the end the woman disappeared first.

"Aren't you afraid?" Lin Qiushi turned to ask him.

Ruan Nanzhu took a breath of smoke: "It doesn't matter if you're afraid or not." He handed Lin Qiushi one.

Anyway, it was inside the door, Lin Qiushi took the cigarette and put it on, looking at the gradually darkening sky outside: "What should we do next?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Wait."

Why wait, what are you waiting for, Ruan Nanzhu didn't explain, and Lin Qiushi didn't ask, he turned around and entered the room with Ruan Nanzhu after he finished smoking the cigarette.Tan Zaozao had already fallen asleep on the floor bunk with his butt out.The image of this girl inside is really difficult to match with the cold actress outside. She is not outstanding in appearance, and her personality is not cold. When she sleeps, she especially likes to lie on the bed like a worm and sleep with her butt sticking out. The pose is really unsightly, and I don't know if those fans of hers will feel that their dreams are shattered after seeing it.

Lin Qiushi put the quilt on her conveniently, and then lay down next to Ruan Nanzhu.

"You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people watching the scenery look at you upstairs. The bright moon adorns your window, and you adorn other people's dreams." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Do you have any new ideas for this poem? "

Lin Qiushi pondered for a while: "We stand in the castle and look at the paintings, and those who look at the paintings look at us upstairs. The picture frames adorn our windows, and we adorn other people's dreams..." This note was written very well. It is clear, as long as he thinks a little bit, he can understand the answer, but he is a little hesitant now. Does the last line of the poem, dream, refer to the painting that the woman brought them into, or to something else.

"I think the dream refers to the painting upstairs." Ruan Nanzhu turned his body sideways, looking at Lin Qiushi's profile.

The distance between the two was so close that they could even feel each other's breath.

If this were placed on others, Lin Qiushi might feel uncomfortable.But it was probably because the bed with Ruan Nanzhu had paved the way, so Lin Qiushi didn't think there was any problem.

"You mean the picture of the dinner party?" Lin Qiushi asked.

Ruan Nanzhu: "Yes."

Lin Qiushi blinked: "Then shall we burn that painting?"

Ruan Nanzhu was silent for three seconds, and found that Lin Qiushi was serious. He said, "Aren't you afraid?"

Lin Qiushi: "Isn't there still you here? Besides, if the hostess' dream is really that painting, do we have to wait until she finishes that painting?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "She will never finish that painting."

Lin Qiushi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then understood what Ruan Nanzhu meant.The hostess really can't finish the painting. There are ten people in the painting, which means she has to pull ten people into the frame to turn it into a painting. But according to the rules inside the door, the team will not be completely wiped out. It means that the painting of the hostess will always lack a face—the painting will never be completed.

"Go up and have a look tomorrow." Ruan Nanzhu said, "We can't stay here any longer, it will only become more and more dangerous."

Lin Qiushi nodded.

Ruan Nanzhu's guess was right, because the next morning, another member of their team was missing.This time, everyone didn't react too much, and everyone was used to such things.

The man's portrait was finally put away by the housekeeper, and Lin Qiushi watched him take the portrait to the top of the building.

"Where is he going to send the paintings?" Lin Qiushi was a little curious.

Ruan Nanzhu: "I don't know, follow up and have a look."

After the two said this, they put down their knives and forks and walked out tacitly. Before Tan Zaozao understood what happened, he hurried out with a piece of bread in his mouth.

The butler went up to the sixth floor, opened the room where the unfinished products were placed, and came out soon after entering.

Lin Qiushi and the others hid at the corner of the stairs and saw the butler disappear in front of them.

"Go in and have a look?" Lin Qiushi asked.

Ruan Nanzhu nodded.

Skillfully picking the lock, Ruan Nanzhu opened the door of the room where the unfinished product was placed again. This time they entered, they made a new discovery.

"...Are these newly painted?" Tan Zaozao looked at the painting in front of him with a little creepiness.I saw a room full of portraits, many blank spaces in the portraits had been filled.All that filled the picture frame was a woman in black with the appearance of a rain girl, by the window, in the corridor, on the stairs, in the courtyard, her figure was everywhere.It even appeared in the picture scroll belonging to Xiao Su.

This gave Lin Qiushi an inexplicable feeling that the picture was polluted.

Ruan Nanzhu was lost in thought while looking at these hundreds of paintings. He paused and said, "Look for it."

Tan Zaozao was in a dazed state from the very beginning, still eating the bread in his hand: "What are you looking for?"

"Look for the door." Ruan Nanzhu said, "The door should be in the painting."

"Really?" Although Tan Zaozao was a little skeptical, he still listened to Ruan Nanzhu's words, and began to rummage through hundreds of scrolls in front of him together.

About half an hour later, Lin Qiushi finally found what he wanted when he was looking for a pair of scrolls that were pressed underneath. He cried out in a low voice: "I found it——"

It was a very ordinary painting at first glance. It showed the interior of the castle, but there was a very special scene in it—a black iron gate.

The black iron gate stood in a dark corner, and it was easy to miss without looking carefully.

Ruan Nanzhu took the painting: "This is the stairs on the right side of the second floor, go, go and have a look."

They took the painting and went straight to the second floor, and soon found the scene in the painting, but it was different from the painting.Where the iron gate was located was a white wall with an ordinary landscape painting hanging on the wall.

Ruan Nanzhu reached out and took off the painting, and found that there was really a switch behind the painting. When he saw the switch, he reached out and pressed it. With a slight rumbling sound, a huge crack opened on the wall in front of them. A gap, a black door, appeared in front of the three of them.

"The door has been found!" Tan Zaozao was overjoyed, "The key is missing now..."

Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu looked at each other.

Ruan Nanzhu: "Do you want to do it?"

Lin Qiushi: "Let's go."

Tan Zaozao didn't understand the meaning of the conversation between the two of them, until she saw Ruan Nanzhu took out a lighter from her pocket, she said in astonishment: "Are you two really going..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "I'm afraid you'll just wait here."

Tan Zaozao said forget it, let's stay together, if something happens, we can take care of each other, isn't it important for a family to be neat and tidy?

Lin Qiushi: "..." Neatly together?

After making the decision, Ruan Nanzhu was extremely decisive, and the three went straight to the hostess's studio on the seventh floor.Of course, they didn't forget to knock on the door before entering the studio, otherwise it would be very embarrassing to open the door and see the hostess sitting inside.

The hostess does not seem to be painting during the day, and only continues at night.This gave Ruan Nanzhu an opportunity. He walked to the side of the painting, turned on the lighter, and lowered his head to light the fire. The whole action was done in one go, as if he had done it countless times.

Tan Zaozao looked at it with horror, and rubbed the goose bumps on his arms vigorously.

The flames stained the paper and quickly devoured the painting in front of him. However, when the flames spread, Lin Qiushi heard a slight sound, which seemed to be a human scream, or the sound of wet wood being ignited. kind of creaking sound.

"Did you hear that?" Lin Qiushi asked hopelessly.

Sure enough, both Ruan Nanzhu and Tan Zaozao shook their heads, expressing that they didn't hear anything.

In an instant, the painting in front of him turned into black ashes, and as the last corner was also ignited, there was a crisp sound on the ground, as if something metal had fallen to the floor.

Lin Qiushi lowered his head and saw a bronze key as expected.

"Ahhhhh!!!" At the same time, a woman's angry roar came from downstairs. Lin Qiushi, who was so loud, almost lost his footing. Without thinking, he knew that it must be the voice of the hostess.

"Go!!" Ruan Nanzhu grabbed the key, turned and ran.

Lin Qiushi and Tan Zaozao followed closely behind.

They went all the way down the stairs, but when they reached the fourth floor, they saw the crazy-looking hostess who had already arrived. She was full of anger and madness, but what attracted the most attention was the huge picture frame she was holding in her right hand. That picture frame was being swung heavily, and no one would want to be hit by that thing.

"Take the stairs by the side door!" Ruan Nanzhu was already very familiar with the structure of the castle, and immediately changed direction when he saw the woman.

The woman rushed towards them, waving her limbs uncoordinatedly, just like a huge arthropod, but the speed was very fast, and she was behind them in an instant.

Lin Qiushi didn't dare to stop for a moment, as soon as he stopped, the picture frame seemed to hit him immediately.

They quickly went down to the fourth floor, and Ruan Nanzhu did not return: "Lin Qiushi, you lead her away, give me a little time to open the door—"

Lin Qiushi gritted his teeth: "Okay!" He turned his head and looked at the huge woman behind him, and without thinking, he grabbed the painting hanging on the wall next to him and threw it at her.

The woman was hit by the painting thrown by Lin Qiushi, and with an almost ferocious roar, she rushed towards Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiushi dodged and just avoided the picture frame she waved in front of him. He glanced at Ruan Nanzhu and ran down to the first floor.

The woman followed him down the stairs.Lin Qiushi felt that he had never been so calm. After he was sure that the woman was coming, he quickly turned around and ran up the stairs at the other end of the corridor. So much time must have been enough for Ruan Nanzhu to open the iron gate!

Sure enough, Lin Qiushi, who returned to the second floor, saw the iron door that had been opened.

There was a soft light emitting from the iron gate, telling the people inside the gate that this is the way of life, Lin Qiushi panted heavily, and ran towards the gate with the last of his strength.However, the moment he was about to enter the door, he felt a pair of big hands firmly grabbing his ankles, dragging him out of the door——

The woman appeared in front of him with a ferocious expression, looking down at him, Lin Qiushi's feet were caught in her hand, she raised her right hand, and smashed the photo frame in her hand down heavily.

At this moment, Lin Qiushi's breathing almost stopped, and the picture in front of him became extremely slow, like the last revolving door before death, he could even see the black hair of the woman flying in the air...

The frame fell down, and Lin Qiushi involuntarily closed his eyes.

"Ahhhh!!!" However, the darkness that should have come did not come, but Lin Qiushi heard the woman screaming. He opened his eyes and found that his whole body was soaked in blood, and his trouser pocket was the source of the blood. At this time, blood was still pouring out continuously.The blood seemed to be offensive to the woman, she even put down the picture frame in her hand, and began to back away uncontrollably.

Lin Qiushi didn't dare to think about what was going on, turned around and rushed into the door.Passing through the tunnel dazzled by light, he paused, and finally returned to the present world he had left for a long time.

"Hoo hoo hoo..." Lin Qiushi sat on the bed with cold sweat all over his head. He raised his hand to wipe off the sweat on his forehead, got up and went outside, and rang Ruan Nanzhu's room.

With a creak, Ruan Nanzhu appeared at the door. When he saw Lin Qiushi, his expression was slightly relaxed: "Come out."

Lin Qiushi nodded, the scene before going out was too scary, and now he has no strength in his body: "When I came out, I was caught by that woman."

Ruan Nanzhu frowned: "No injury?"

Lin Qiushi shook his head: "No." He was a little puzzled, "I was caught by her, but something seemed to save me." He took out his trouser pocket, but found nothing strange inside, " There's a lot of blood spilling out of the trouser pocket...do you know what that is?"

Ruan Nanzhu leaned against the door, shaking his head to indicate that he didn't know: "It's fine if you can come out, what to do with so much."

Lin Qiushi snorted, he always felt that Ruan Nanzhu had something to hide from him, of course, he didn't dare to say it in front of Ruan Nanzhu, so he nodded and turned away.

Ruan Nanzhu looked at his back and said, "Tan Zaozao invited us to dinner tonight."

"En." Lin Qiushi said, "I'm going to take a bath and calm down."

night.

Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu appeared at the restaurant that Tan Zaozao had booked.Lin Qiushi originally thought that Tan Zaozao would invite them to eat steak or something, but he didn't expect that she ordered a hot pot.

As soon as Lin Qiushi entered, he saw Tan Zaozao, who was wearing a T-shirt, rolling up his sleeves, sipping hot pot and sipping beer, and seeing them waving without raising their heads: "Hurry up, come on, it's really a shame to eat steak for so long!" I'm hungry."

Lin Qiushi: "..." The contrast is too great.

Ruan Nanzhu seemed to be used to it, sat down beside Tan Zaozao, and said, "You can pay the balance."

Tan Zaozao said angrily, "It's not that I don't want to fight, why are you so anxious, I just came out, let me wait for two days." She poured down a glass of cold beer, "It's so cool... "

Looking at the actress who had no airs in front of him, Lin Qiushi always felt in a trance. He sat down beside him quietly and began to eat.

Tan Zaozao and Ruan Nanzhu began to chat about things, most of which were bargaining about the fourth door. Only then did Lin Qiushi know that the door led by Ruan Nanzhu is really not cheap. The first four doors are all 100 million, at least Not a single point.When the fifth door starts to increase the price, how to increase and how much to increase depends on Ruan Nanzhu's mood.

"Our relationship is so good, can't it be cheaper?" Tan Zaozao said, "I'm also a VIP member, right?"

Ruan Nanzhu said indifferently: "Brother, settle accounts."

Tan Zaozao: "You are a money fanatic." Thanks to this money fanatic being so detached from the world, she naively thought he was an expert who didn't care about world affairs.

Ruan Nanzhu: "Will you give it?"

Sadly, Tan Zaozao took out her mobile phone and prepared to transfer money.

There was a ding dong, and it was Lin Qiushi's mobile phone that made the sound after the transfer was over. He took out his mobile phone and found that another 20 yuan had been transferred on it. He looked a little hesitant: "Brother Ruan..."

Ruan Nanzhu waved his hand: "If you tell you to take it, you can take it. If you don't take her life money, you will look down on her."

Tan Zaozao: "..." She really wants to be looked down upon...

Lin Qiushi still accepted the money. Every line has its own rules. As a novice, he had better not talk about some things.

The three of them were a little tired just after they came out of the door, especially Lin Qiushi was grabbed by the woman before he came out. Although he was not injured, it was terrifying enough.

Tan Zaozao almost left after eating, leaving Ruan Nanzhu and Lin Qiushi behind.

"Tired?" Ruan Nanzhu asked him.

"A little bit." Lin Qiushi replied.

"Then go back." Ruan Nanzhu said, "It's getting late."

Lin Qiushi nodded.

The two walked out from the hot pot restaurant. It was still very hot at the moment, but fortunately the sun had already set.The noisy cicadas and passing vehicles should be noisy and noisy, but they are inexplicably reassuring.Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu didn't speak all the way, until they arrived at the villa, Ruan Nanzhu said to Lin Qiushi: "Have a good rest."

"You too." Lin Qiushi smiled.

After Ruan Nanzhu said this, he turned and went upstairs, while Lin Qiushi sat in the living room for a while.

Cheng Qianli just came back from his toast walk, and saw Lin Qiushi happily greeted him: "Are you back?"

Lin Qiushi: "I'm back."

"No accident, right?" Cheng Qianli stroked Toast's butt.

"No big accident." Lin Qiushi replied calmly.

Cheng Qianli tilted his head, as if he felt that something was wrong with Lin Qiushi's state, he said, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"Uncomfortable?" Lin Qiushi shook his head, "No, maybe I'm a little tired."

Cheng Qianli snorted and told Lin Qiushi to take a good rest without thinking too much.

Lin Qiushi said, "Have you seen the chestnut?"

"I didn't see it, I don't know where it went, maybe it's in Brother Ruan's room." Cheng Qianli said, "Do you want to go and have a look?"

Lin Qiushi thought about it, and decided to forget it.

Going back to the room to sleep, Lin Qiushi lay on the bed for a long time without falling asleep. He looked at the ceiling, and finally couldn't hold back and sent a message to Ruan Nanzhu: Are you asleep?

It took a while for the other side to reply: No, what's the matter?

Lin Qiushi: I have something to ask you.

Ruan Nanzhu: What is it?

Lin Qiushi looked at the screen of his mobile phone, and typed out what he wanted to say word by word: Did you put the things in my trouser pocket?

Ruan Nanzhu didn't reply.

Lin Qiushi: What is that?Can't you tell me?

Ruan Nanzhu replied with five words: Come to my room.

Lin Qiushi was a little happy, and ran to Ruan Nanzhu's room as soon as he lost his mobile phone. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ruan Nanzhu who had just taken a shower and was only wrapped in a towel. His hair was still wet and dripping slowly. Drops of water slid down his collarbone onto his strong chest and beautiful mermaid lines before falling to the floor.

"Sit." Ruan Nanzhu raised his chin.

Lin Qiushi sat on the sofa next to Ruan Nanzhu.

Ruan Nanzhu originally wanted to light a cigarette, but looked at Lin Qiushi again, and finally put away the cigarette. He picked up a towel and wiped his hair: "Yes, I put the things."

Lin Qiushi asked directly: "Then why did you lie to me?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "You are so direct in everything you do?"

Lin Qiushi was a little puzzled: "Why can't you be direct? Is there anything shameful about this matter?"

Ruan Nanzhu looked down at Lin Qiushi with a strange expression: "You never thought about it, what if I actually want to harm you?"

Lin Qiushi shook his head honestly: "I haven't thought about it."

Ruan Nanzhu: "..." Lin Qiushi, why are you so cute.

The author has something to say: Ruan Nanzhu: I like to bully honest people (flies rub their hands

Lin Qiushi:? ? ? ?

Lin Qiushi has only entered the four doors, and he is just a novice. Don't always compare with the experienced bosses, you need to give him some time.
