After Chu Li and Mu Xi exchanged some clues in the apocalyptic world, and agreed to go to the apocalyptic world in the mirror at nine o'clock in the morning, they went back to their rooms to rest one after another.

Nothing to say all night......

At seven o'clock in the morning, today's Chu Li got up early, because he felt that the eldest lady he met on the plane to Bailing had also come to Weng Shi Village.

At the beginning, because Chu Li had always smelled a familiar smell on Dongfang Qing's body, when Dongfang Qing was about to leave at the airport, he installed a special source force mark on her body, which could sense the specific location of the other party in a large area.

In the early hours of this morning, Dongfang Qing was not yet in the range that the mark could show. But when Chu Li woke up in the morning, he suddenly found that this mysterious eldest lady had actually come to Weng Shi Village, which made Chu Li more and more curious about what the purpose of the eldest lady who looked a little depressed came to Bailing Province.

Following the guidance of the source force marker, Chu Li came to the cliff of a mountain. The mountain is not very high, but it is a good vantage point to see the entire village from the cliff.

On a flat ground at the edge of the cliff, Dongfang Qing, who was wearing simple sportswear, sat on a folding chair, with an easel in front of her, which looked like she had come to sketch.

Dongfang Qing's painting is a bit special, there is also a cliff in the painting, and there is also a village under the cliff. The village and the cliffs are vividly painted, just like a photograph.

But the sky above the village was not blue, cloudless, but countless meteorites, large and small, that were falling obliquely, flying down and smashing into the small village.

The tranquility of the village contrasts sharply with the fireball disaster, as if to herald the calamity that is quietly descending on people in what they thought they were in peace.

What's even more strange is that there is also an easel at the cliff in the painting, and the painting is also a picture of the end of the world composed of cliffs, villages, and meteorites. But in this painting, the cliff is empty, and there is nothing......

Chu Li gradually couldn't understand the meaning of this painting.

"Why are you so idle, painting here. ”

"Ahh

Because Chu Li was quiet when he came, Dongfang Qing, who was focused on painting, did not notice Chu Li's arrival. So when I suddenly heard the sound of talking, I was immediately startled, and after getting up from the chair, I was knocked down by the chair and almost fell off the cliff.

Chu Li reached out to hold Dongfang Qing's hand and pulled her into his arms: "Be careful, what are you nervous about." ”

After Dongfang Qing looked up at Chu Li clearly, her face was a little red, and she broke free from Chu Li's embrace.

"You...... Why are you here?"

"I'm here to see a friend. Chu Li approached and looked at Dongfang Qing and said, "The weather is good in the morning, so I'll take a look." How did you come here?"

"I have a relative who happens to have an art class in this small village, and I came to visit her. ”

Chu Li smiled and was noncommittal to Dongfang Qing's words: "You seem to be quite good at painting, how could you think of painting such a painting?"

Dongfang Qing suddenly smiled, with a sly and lovely smile on her face. She sat back down in her folding chair, picked up the paintbrush that had fallen to the floor, and began to organize her painting tools.

She thought for a while and said, "Don't you think that this painting is like a person's heart?"

"People's hearts?"

"People will always be haunted by some terrible things, but deep down they will choose to avoid and forget. Like an easel in this painting, it will record the disaster of the village with its eyes. But in its inner body, it wants to forget it, and does not intend to keep it in its memory. ”

"Does this painting have a name?" Chu Li reached out and touched the paint that had dried.

Dongfang Qing put her index finger against her chin and thought about it: "Hmm...... It's called "Doomsday Drawing". ”

"Huh. At this time, Dongfang Qing noticed the diamond ring on Chu Li's right index finger, which was given to him by Dongfang Pavilion, "How can you have this ring." ”

"This?" Chu Li also glanced at his hand, "It was given to me by an old man, it's just a very ordinary ring, isn't it?"

"It is a symbol of the previous head of our family. Dongfang Qing's face immediately became serious, "Why, it's in your hands." ”

"Your master, your surname is Dongfang?"

"Yes. Dongfang Qing nodded, a hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes, "My name is Dongfang Qing, and I am the granddaughter of the previous head of the family, can you please return that ring to me?"

"You don't have a way to prove your true identity right now, I'm curious about your family's affairs. Chu Li lifted his glasses, "You can tell me first, what happened to your family, and why your family master is in that world." ”

Dongfang Qing lowered her head and struggled for a while before saying, "Since Grandpa handed over that ring to you, it means that he has enough trust in you." In fact, our family originally built such a world because we wanted to have a place where the monks could cultivate freely when the source spirit particles in the human realm were exhausted.

I don't think there's anything wrong with this original intention, and it's a very good thing for the whole monastic community. But it wasn't until a year ago that my brother suddenly proposed to privately own the world's placeholder family and turn that ideal country into a paid service to make huge profits, which was opposed by the family collective.

Half a year ago, my brother suddenly led a group of people to not only start slaughtering the people in our family, taking away the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and finally throwing my grandfather into the world of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. I've actually been hiding from my brother for the past six months, and I'm coming to Weng Shi Village today because I was found in my residence in Bailing City. ”

"Why don't you go to the Monks Inspectorate?"

"I've looked for it, but it's useless. I can't reveal the information of the Ten Thousand Miles Map, so they just treat this matter as if it were an ordinary monk family dispute. ”

Chu Li noticed that Dongfang Qing did not have a coat of arms on the back of his hand: "Haven't you thought about going to the world in the painting to rescue people?"

"It's useless. Dongfang Qing shook her head in frustration, "I don't have the talent to draw heraldic coats, that kind of complex coat of arms can only be done by my brother." ”

It seems that this woman doesn't know that the so-called map of thousands of miles has become a doomsday world.

"I also want to ask you a question. Chu Li turned his back to the cliff, "Was there a person in the group of people that your brother brought with him at that time?" ”

This person with the White Holy Grail was what Chu Li saw in the fragmentary soul memories of Liu Rui Valley.

"Holy Grail...... I didn't know, I was taken out not long after they arrived. Dongfang Qing looked confused, "Well, can you give me back the ring? ”

"Of course. Chu Li smiled and said, "But I still need this thing to help me solve some things, and in the afternoon, I will find someone to send it to you." ”

After saying this, Chu Li patted Dongfang Qing's shoulder, waved his hand and walked down the cliff.

Looking at the back of Chu Li leaving, Dongfang Qing, who had no ability to forcibly keep Chu Li, showed a look of disgust on his face, and as soon as his right hand was forced, he directly broke a paintbrush.
