Chapter 7: Love Castle 7
The secret room is full of dust, and the more you go inside, the stronger the musty smell.
It is full of various drawing tools and paper, like a studio.
Li Dengfeng looked around and clicked his tongue, "This duke really likes to draw."
Han Ke covered her nose and said angrily, "There doesn't seem to be anything here, it's just a utility room. Let's leave."
Sister Wang did not speak, but walked around the room several times, her eyes fixed on a picture that was pressed against the corner of the wall.
She carefully pulled it out. The painting looked very old, the paper was yellow and brittle, and there was only half of the painting left.
There are four people in the painting, a middle-aged couple sitting on the sofa, well-dressed, and the jewelry they wear looks expensive. Behind them stood two boys with identical clothes, both small suits, but the heads of the two boys were missing.
The top half of the painting is torn off.
He Dongjiang came over, glanced at the painting in Sister Wang's hand, and said, "The brushstrokes of this painting are different from the painting hanging in the corridor. It seems that this is not a painting painted by the Duke."
Li Dengfeng also came over and expressed his opinion, "This painting should be of the Duke's family. The little boy in the back is the Duke? But why are there two little boys in the painting? Does the Duke still have brother?"
"In this case, this painting should be very valuable. Why do you just put it here and not hang it out? And you don't even put a picture frame, it will be bitten off by mice. half of."
Exquisite picture frame.
Sister Wang thought for a moment and replied, "The fact that such an important painting is hidden in the secret room shows that the Duke did it on purpose. There must be clues in this painting." In her mind, she hadn't had time to think about it.
At this time, Han Ke, who was closest to the door of the secret room, called out, "Run, something is coming!"
The three who gathered to look at the painting raised their heads, only to see a huge black shadow approaching the secret room, and the entire study was almost shrouded in darkness.
Sister Wang came back to her senses and cursed: "Damn, those paintings!"
The study that is now shrouded in darkness is exactly the same as the painting of the study on the wall. The study in the dark that the Duke painted is not the night, but the current scene!
It was daytime, but the shrouded study was dark and thick, like being thrown into an ink tank, and I couldn't see anything clearly. No one knew what was in the darkness, except for what seemed to be a creaking sound in the shadows.
Han Ke was still standing at the door of the secret room, trembling as she watched the shadow approach.
Because the black shadow comes down from the painting, its volume slowly spreads from the rectangular painting to the entire study. And its course of action is from the wall with the painting to the door of the secret room.
The speed of volume diffusion is slower than the speed of its approach, which also causes a gap between the shadow and the door of the secret room, just enough to accommodate one person.
Sister Wang moved quickly, and immediately dodged away from the gap that had not been swallowed, followed by Li Dengfeng.
But Han Ke's legs were a little weak and she couldn't walk at all. She was pulled like this and fell directly to the ground.
Han Ke hugged He Dongjiang's leg tightly and shouted, "Brother He, save me! Save me..." The delicate face was covered with tears, although she knew that all this was Fake, but when danger looms, none of the bodily reactions are fake.
Seeing the dark shadow gradually spread, the gap between the dark shadow and the door is getting narrower and narrower, it will be too late if you don't leave! He Dongjiang pulled Han Ke's hand away without hesitation, and got out of the gap sideways.
Fortunately, the shadows hadn't spread completely, so He Dongjiang stepped on the bright spot in the study and quickly left the study.
At the door, Wang Jiali and Li Dengfeng are waiting for him.
Li Dengfeng was a little surprised when he saw that only He Dongjiang came out, "Brother He, then Han Ke..."
Sister Wang is very clear.
At this time, the dark shadow has completely filled the entire study and has entered the secret room.
Darkness quickly wrapped Han Ke, who fell to the ground.
Nothing could be seen in the study, only the sound of biting from the darkness and Han Ke's crying and shouting, as well as Han Ke's scolding He Dongjiang's broken voice. It is estimated that Han Ke did not expect that the "thighs" she had exchanged for her body did not hesitate at all, and abandoned her.
The miserable voice made Li Dengfeng frown unconsciously.
He Dongjiang pulled the study door closed and said, "It's alright, Han Ke is not dead, she's broadcasting well." Li Dengfeng nodded embarrassedly after hearing this.
Sister Wang did not speak and walked down the stairs, Li Dengfeng and He Dongjiang followed behind her.
He Dongjiang explained to Li Dengfeng: "Little Li, these things are normal. When I first started the live broadcast, I couldn't see people dying or living, but later I figured it out, the live broadcast When you die, it doesn’t affect real life, right. After a long time of live broadcast, you will get used to it.”
He has long been used to pushing newcomers out when they are in danger. They're not going to die anyway, are they? He also felt uneasy at first, and every time he did this, he would tell himself that those people weren't really dead. Slowly, he became an old fritter in the guild, and he became more and more comfortable with these things, and became less and less conscienceless.
Li Dengfeng nodded smoothly, and then stepped up to Sister Wang's side.
Still follow Sister Wang to be safe, at least... at least not dead.
Li Dengfeng asked Wang Jiali: "Sister Wang, where are we going now?"
Wang Jiali touched the booklet Han Ke found in her arms, and said in a deep voice, "Let's find those two girls."
The three of them searched the castle for a long time but couldn't find it, and finally found Lin Mutao and Shishi in room 201.
The two of them were wearing high-grade bathrobes in the castle room, with face masks on their faces. They were lying on the bed and chatting leisurely. They were a little surprised to see Sister Wang and the others coming in.
Lin Mutao stiffened, sat up from the bed, and asked, "Why are you here? Hey? Is there one missing?"
He Dongjiang snorted from his nose and did not speak.
But without him speaking, Lin Mutao also guessed that Han Ke had suffered misfortune and was forced to stop broadcasting.
"Hey, we've been working hard to find clues, you two just lie here and sleep?" Li Dengfeng said sarcastically.
Lin Mutao: "That's because we've come back after finding the clues."
Li Dengfeng: "What did you find? Come and listen?"
Lin Mutao: "Yes, but we exchange clues."
Li Dengfeng wanted to say something, but was stopped by Sister Wang. Sister Wang handed the booklet in her arms to Lin Mutao and Shi Shi, and then told them about the strange paintings found in the secret room earlier.
Shi Shi was looking at the booklet while Lin Mutao put on the mask again, lying down and talking to Sister Wang: "Listen to what you just said, I am very interested in this castle. There is some speculation about what happened, and I'll watch the duke while I'm at dinner, and I'll tell you."
"In addition, do you have this mirror in your room?"
Sister Wang followed the direction Lin Mutao's fingers pointed to, it was the dressing mirror beside the bed.
Sister Wang nodded, "We have this mirror in our room, exactly the same as yours."
Lin Mutao said to Sister Wang, "Be careful with the mirror, I suspect that the mirror is a little weird too."
At this time, Shi Shi shouted: "I've finished reading it! This booklet introduces the black magic that can resurrect the dead!"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
The strange patterns drawn on the booklet are the magic circles that need to be drawn for resurrection, and the last page of the booklet was torn off. However, looking at some of the remaining content, the last page is some precautions for resurrection, which is not very important.
Who is resurrected now?
Li Dengfeng said: "It must be the Duke's brother! Are there paintings in the secret room? The Duke also has a brother!"
Lin Mutao shook her head and said, "It may also be the Duke's beloved girl."
Li Dengfeng retorted: "The duke is looking for a fiancee everywhere, how could he have a girl he loves! I think this kind of black magic will definitely be used on his close relatives!"
Lin Mutao also retorted: "Where are the brothers who the Duke resurrected?"
"I...how do I know," Li Dengfeng glared at Lin Mutao, "Maybe his resurrection failed?"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Sister Wang hurriedly said, "Stop arguing!"
Sister Wang said to Lin Mutao, "You suspect that the duke's resurrection is the girl he loves, so I have the same question, where is the duke's resurrected girl?"
Lin Mutao blinked, "I don't know either, I'm talking nonsense, are you serious?"
