When Zhang San took the painting out of the warehouse, everyone immediately gathered around.

Wang Fatzi excitedly removed the wrapping paper outside, and a colorful picture scroll was displayed in front of everyone.

The painting is 1 meter long and 0.6 meters wide, and there is only one thing on the whole painting, which is the eyes.

There are all kinds of colorful eyes, there are big eyes, small eyes, closed, open, vertical, horizontal...... In the whole painting, except for the eyes, there are countless jet-black lines, densely covered on the scroll, and the overall feeling is messy and a little weird.

Everyone looks at it, and it seems to be looking at everyone.

Chen Pifu smoked a cigarette, looked at the painting silently, and praised: "It's actually an abstract ......."

"Huh!" Zhang San suddenly became interested: "I didn't expect you to also have research on art?"

Wang Fatzi looked adoring: "Boss, do you understand such things?"

"I don't understand!" Chen Pifu shook his head: "I don't understand, isn't it an abstractionist?"

………………… The crowd was suddenly speechless.

Chen Pifu sneered in his heart: What are you kidding, this kind of ghost drawing, who can understand it, Lao Tzu's understanding of art is limited to AV.

"How did you get this painting?" Ye Yun asked.

"Think about it. Zhang San frowned: "Oh, the night before I returned to China, I participated in a charity auction, and I auctioned it." ”

"Is the author of this painting famous?" asked Chen Pifu curiously.

"Who knows!" Zhang San shrugged his shoulders, then picked up the painting and flipped through it, looked at it for a long time, and didn't see the author's signature: "It's not written." ”

"Then why did you buy this painting?"

"At that time, there was an island man who wanted to buy this painting, and I thought that I was going to return to China to have a baby anyway, so I would just spend some money to express my patriotic feelings, so I took this painting. Anyway, I have nothing left to spend money except to have children. ”

"Haha, that's good!" Chen Pifu gave a thumbs up: "Praise for your patriotic sentiments, you are really capricious when you are rich, how much did you spend on this thing?"

"More than 10 million. ”

"Name Coins!"

"Dollars!"

Groove ...... Everyone was shocked again, including Ye Yun. Everyone looked at Zhang San's eyes, and they had already begun to worship a little: Nima's, you bought such a piece of garbage for more than 10 million dollars, how willful are you.

"Haha, you see, it's clear that this thing still has value, but we haven't found it yet. Zhang San smiled: "Otherwise, how could those people go to such great lengths?"

"Hmm!" Ye Yun nodded: "The other party should have been eyeing you from abroad, and it is estimated that he has been following you for a while, and found that it is difficult to start, or has conducted some investigations on you, out of fear of your family, so he uses such a circumvention method, hoping to achieve his goal." ”

"Why do you say that?"

"According to their practice of daring to shoot in broad daylight, if they could use force, they would have used it a long time ago. Chen Pifu nodded and said: "What Lao Ye said is very reasonable, it is estimated that he is afraid of the forces behind your family, otherwise he would not arrange such goods to contact you today, the other party should have the mentality of shirking afterwards, if I guessed correctly, you are in this house, it is estimated that they may have been here, and they may find that stealing is not realistic, so they will make so many detours." ”

"Well, well!" even Wang Fatzi echoed: "It's not okay to steal, but don't dare to rob, on the road, then you can only scare you first, and then talk to you well." I know that. ”

"Then what will they do next?" asked Zhang San.

"What else can I do?" Chen Pifu shrugged his shoulders: "According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, since we want to talk, it is nothing more than to make some small moves and increase a little bargaining chip for negotiation, but don't worry, since the other party is afraid, sooner or later we will find them by ourselves, and we will wait slowly." ”

"So what do we do now?"

"Hehe!" Chen Pifu took a cigarette in his mouth, squinted his eyes, looked at the painting in front of him, and said: "Since the other party cares about this painting so much, it is obvious that this thing must be hiding some secrets that we don't know." ”

"Hmm!"

"Hehe, don't you think it's a lot of fun to crack the code?"

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up at the same time. It seems that there is really a little bit of meaning.

…………………………………………………………

The crowd expressed their opinions on the painting.

Wang Fatzi thinks: to grasp the theme, since this painting is about the eyes, then the secret must be related to the eyes. Therefore, the eyes are the secret of this painting.

Da Zhuang believes that in the whole painting, those eyes are just a trick to confuse, as if they are like the surface of those terrible traps in the forest. Just to distract others, the real secret should be hidden in those lines and textures of the whole painting. The painting, full of colorful lines and seemingly disorganized, can often hide real secrets.

Zhang San has already taken out a magnifying glass, he thinks: details determine success or failure, and ordinary painters always like to hide some secrets in some unknown or easily ignored places, just like many top masters of counterfeiting, like to quietly hide some things that do not exist in the era of the work.

Chen Pifu believes that everything on a painting is a surface. Only with high-tech means can the code be cracked. For example, the special potions that are used in legends to manifest themselves, or perhaps secrets, are mixed in with the drawing paper.

As for Ye Yun, who took the cold route, he didn't seem to have much interest in this painting, but he was always full of curiosity about the scream.

So, everyone divided the work, Ye Yun was responsible for investigating the ghost in the villa, while the others were responsible for unlocking the secret of the painting. In order to mobilize enthusiasm, Zhang San deliberately took out 50,000 US dollars as a reward. Of course, Chen Pifu can't always let people pay for it, Chen Pifu promised, if Zhang San discovers the secret first. Then as a reward, Chen Pifu was responsible for arranging for Zhang San and Cao Yingying to watch a movie together.

For a while, everyone's morale was high.

Wang Fatzi made dozens of copies of the painting and distributed them to Da Zhuang and Zhang San, and the three of them carefully followed their own ideas and worked hard.

And Chen Pifu took the original book, looked left and right, and wondered where to start.

At three o'clock in the morning, at the same time yesterday, the terrible screams echoed in the villa again.

"I'm so miserable....... I'm so miserable.......... I'm so miserable.........."

This time, except for Wang Fatzi, everyone else was awakened, and every group of mournful wails seemed to have been shouted into everyone's hearts.

Ye Yun and Chen Pifu searched carefully for a long time, but they didn't find anything, the cry seemed to echo in every room, and they couldn't find the source at all. Fortunately, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it other than a little noise. And it was very punctual, as soon as it was eight o'clock, the cry would quickly disappear.

Ye Yun and Chen Pifu looked at each other, and they could see a trace of horror in each other's eyes.

After all, it is definitely not a good thing to let a ghost who doesn't know the details haunt the house.

"Old Ye, what do you think?" asked Chen Pifu, smoking a cigarette.

"It's definitely a ghost!" Ye Yun frowned: "But I don't know what level it is, I don't know what type it belongs to, and I don't know what the intentions of this ghost are." ”

"Ghosts are still ranked?"

"Well, ghosts are the same as those with abilities, and the level of strength is the same, but the names are different, the silver level is a powerful ghost, the gold level is a demon, the master level is an evil ghost, and as for the more advanced ones, we call them ghost kings. ”

"Is this a powerful thing?"

"What do you say, ghosts are very special spirits, similar to the existence of souls, if not most of the ghosts, they are born from anger, not easy to be subdued, and easy to backlash, otherwise, there are many people who are willing to take ghosts for their own use, after all, this kind of existence similar to martial spirits is a very important combat power. ”

"So awesome?"

"Of course, the characteristics of ghosts lie in spiritualization, which means that physical attacks are basically ineffective, only elemental attacks, spiritual attacks will cause damage to him, and many ghost attacks can directly attack the other party's soul, which is very scary, especially some ghost attack methods, which are even more terrifying, like some curses, in fact, it is already a certain kind of power involving rules. Now there are many professions that catch ghosts, such as Maoshan Taoist priests and dragon and tiger sects, they not only destroy powerful ghosts, but also capture those who are weaker or less angry, and seal them in specific items, make them into ghost weapons, and sell them. ”

"Anyone else wants this?"

"The price is not cheap, it has always been an ordinary black iron-level strength ghost, and it can be sold for millions, do you say it is expensive?"

"Damn, according to you, this ghost has no weaknesses at all?"

"How come, the ghost itself is more fragile because of the spirit body, the most important thing is that many of the abilities are specialized in restraining ghosts, such as light powers, thunder powers, fire powers, these abilities will cause huge damage to ghosts, as well as Maoshan Taoist secret arts, talismans, etc., although ghosts are powerful, but there are too many means to restrain them, plus many ghosts are lost in anger, once they fight with people, it is endless, so there are not many people who can be subjugated by the powers. ”

"Is there a big man in that ghost?"

"Yes, there is a ghost elder in the Nine Pavilion Elders, and he is a ghost king-level existence. ”

"Damn, there are still ghosts in the Nine Pavilion Elders?"

"Of course, there is everything in it, it is estimated that it is at most half of the people, the Nine Pavilion Elders represent the largest Alien Force in the entire East, and the Supreme Director of our Abnormal Ability Investigation Bureau is also said to be one of the Nine Pavilion Elders. Jiuge Lao represents the Eastern Alien Realm, the highest authority body. Their every move is directly related to the luck of the entire Eastern Ability Realm. ”

"And who in the West has the final say?"

"Solomon's Church. ”

"It won't be the ...... of my book"

"Yes, there's a good chance that your book is Chris, the head of the Four Heavenly Kings of Solomon's Church. Wren's Hallows. ”

"Holy, holy weapon? ”

"It's something that can kill you, and if it really is, then the church knows, do you think you can keep it?"

"Uh...... Okay, if it doesn't work, hand it over. ”

"Well, let's take one step at a time, your book is a little different from the Book of Summoning, maybe not, or maybe it's possible, before you don't have the strength to protect yourself, you should be careful when using it. ”

"With a fart, I can't control that book at all, and that thing comes out when I want it, it's all up to my own pleasure. ”

"When your strength grows, I'm looking. ”

"Old Ye, what level do you think this ghost in the villa is?"

"I can't detect my spiritual power, at least it should be silver-level, I'm only a silver junior now, this ghost should be above me. ”

"This ghost doesn't seem to be very good, except for screaming, I hardly see how powerful it is. ”

"It's better to be careful. ”

"Why can't we see him?"

"Ghosts are like this, either there is a bond with him, for example, many ghosts are born because of anger, then for the process of him becoming a ghost, there are people who are fettered, can be seen, just like when many ghosts take revenge, the victim can see clearly, but the unrelated people around him can't see it. ”

"That seems to be the case?"

"Also, if a ghost attacks you, then you will also see him, or through some other means, such as special pupils, spirit runes, spirit weapons, etc., you can also see ghosts. ”

"Then what's going on here, is it possible that we will sit and wait for this ghost to trouble us, and we are fighting back?"

"I'm going to the bureau tomorrow, last time my colleague came, I didn't check anything unusual, I thought there was no ghost here, this time it's correct, I'll go and ask him something tomorrow, see the situation. ”

"When you say that, I seem to think of a friend who seems to be a professional in catching ghosts?"

"Oh, why haven't I heard from you?"

"Ha, I used to be a neighbor for seven or eight years, that guy always wandered around, this time when I opened a detective agency and moved out, I didn't meet him, and I didn't contact him during this time, I call him now. ”

I saw Chen Pifu take out his mobile phone, find the name of the slut in the address book, and dial it.

"Doodoo ....." There was a busy tone on the phone.

"Can't be reached. Chen Pifu shook his head.

Ye Yun looked at the sky outside, it was getting brighter and brighter, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the bureau." ”

"Well, then I'll catch up on a beauty sleep. ”
