In addition to this door, there is a passage in this kitchen that connects to another room, and the sound comes from that room.

It was the sound of the waves.

Merlin's face immediately became solemn.

Although Lennon Island is located in the middle of the sea, they are in the depths of the island at this time, how can they hear the sound of the waves?

She cautiously walked through the dusty kitchen to what resembled a small living room, with a door to the other rooms in the northeast and northwest corners.

The room was pitch black, but under Merlin's true sight, nothing was hidden.

The sofas, tables and chairs were covered with dirt, and the carpet was soft, but with every step, a cloud of dust splashed up.

"No, it's no ordinary dust. ”

Merlin lowered her head and looked at her carefully...... "It seems to be the remains of some animal...... Could it be that this has become a hibernation place for snakes?"

"However, there is no breath of solidified energy particles here, which means that there are no witchcraft traps. ”

Merlin was greatly relieved when she made this judgment, and she walked towards the passage in the northwest corner, this time with a much brisker pace.

Since there was really no witchcraft trap, Mei Lin naturally let go a lot, and when she found that the door in front of her could not be opened directly, she kicked the door directly...... Simple, brutal and effective.

Like the other rooms, there was a lot of dust here. However, it was a study, although most of the books had been destroyed, leaving only huge bookshelves and a few portraits hanging on the walls.

The sound of the waves came from this room...... Of course, Merlin didn't find anything to do with the sea here, but the sound was still there, and it was clearer.

Kind of interesting!

Merlin inspected the bookshelves and other furniture...... Everything is normal.

The question is...... She turned her gaze to the portraits on the walls.

The paintings are all in the style of oil paintings, some are aristocratic costumes, some are samurai costumes, and some are wizard costumes, and judging by the characteristics of the characters on the portraits, it is clear that they are all from the same bloodline. And in the first position on the left, the canvas that looks the oldest, the oldest, and the characters are inevitably somewhat distorted, is a middle-aged man in a wizard's robe, probably the ancestor of this manor.

The man looked very energetic, and most importantly, his eyes were the same color as the sea, and they seemed to be fixed on Merlin.

Merlene's heart moved, and she tried to take a few steps back, then two steps left and right, all the while keeping her eyes fixed on the painting. Then she smiled, sighed softly, and then whispered, "Well, maybe I'm too sensitive...... It's just an oil painting. ”

She turned and looked at the table......

Behind her, the portrait of the wizard on the wall, those sea-blue eyes suddenly blinked!

That's right, the figure in the oil painting suddenly came to life, and his eyes staring at Merlin's back suddenly blinked!

The eyes of the two figures in the painting, which were supposed to be stiff, suddenly seemed to be injected with life! The gaze fell on Merlin's body, and there seemed to be a hint of curiosity in his eyes......

And at this moment, Mei Lin suddenly turned around without warning, and Huo Ran stared at the oil painting on the wall!

One person, one painting, the eyes of both sides suddenly intertwined and collided together!!

"No need to disguise, I know you're watching me. A faint smile appeared on Merlin's face, and she stared at the mural on the wall: "You don't have to pretend anymore...... However, don't you know that it is very rude to peep at others behind their backs?"

In the manor at night, in this study full of old and strange atmosphere, Merlin quietly lowered her head and looked at the oil painting on the wall.

After a brief silence, Merlin did not get a response.

She frowned: "Won't answer?"

The eyes in the painting are still looking into Merlin's eyes.

Merlin smiled, but with a palpitating smile, and she gently raised her right hand, a flame rising from the fingertips of her right hand.

The man in the painting immediately showed a panicked look in his eyes.

Merlin pulled the painting off the wall with all her might, but to her surprise, there was nothing behind it!

It's not a mechanism! It's not someone hiding behind an oil painting looking at themselves! It's the painting itself!

Mei Lin became a little more serious at this time, and carefully picked up the oil painting...... In the oil painting, the look in those eyes is even more uneasy.

"What the hell are you?" said Merlene, muffled, "a demonized oil painting?"

The eyes in the oil painting were a little evasive, but there was no answer, and Merlin sank her face: "Oh, don't you want to say it? ”

She gently shook the flames on her fingertips: "You know what this is, if you don't speak, I'll burn you with a fire." Do you think I dare?"

With that, the index finger of her right hand slowly approached the painting.

The eyes of the people in the oil painting are even more frightened, undisguised panic, their eyes are full of anxiety and begging for mercy, looking at the flames that are getting closer and closer. The person in the painting could only look at Mei Lin pleadingly, his eyes full of anxiety.

Just as he was about to touch the canvas, the flame suddenly disappeared, and he nodded: "Well, it seems that you really can't speak? Can you speak?"

The man in the painting hurriedly shook his head.

"So, what the hell are you?" Merlin's eyes lit up! A living oil painting! Maybe it was really an alternative demonized creature, this kind of thing was not uncommon, but demonized creatures like oil paintings were indeed rare.

For Merlin's question, the painting could not answer. After being freed from the danger of being burned, the person in the painting also seemed to sigh, and then looked at Merlin with amused eyes.

Merlin tried to ask a few more questions about the painting, but it was difficult for the other party to communicate because they couldn't speak. At best, the painting can barely make a nod and shake of the head. After trying hard for a while, nothing came out.

One person and one painting, just staring at each other.

At this moment, a big bell on the wall of the study slowly rang! It was already midnight!

Suddenly, Merlin seemed to see a glimmer of light slowly emanating from the eyes of the characters in the painting!

Although the voice was a little erratic, Mei Lin could hear it clearly, it was clearly the sound of a human sighing!

"Listen! Because I have been cursed, I can only speak briefly when I watch the bell strike at midnight. When the bell is over, I won't be able to make any more sounds!Now I'll just say it again! There's a hidden secret room in this study! There's some treasures in the secret room! I can show you how to get those treasures, and then, I need your help, and one of these items can lift the curse from me. ”
