Early the next morning, Tang Shuang was woken up by the sound of birds~
In the grove live a flock of great and long-tailed leaf warblers, which are their homes, and Tang Frost and Candy are outsiders.
The little pig is still sleeping, the sleeping position is touching, and he has been moving all night, constantly putting his hands and feet on Tang Shuang's body, breaking it down again and again, and coming up again and again~
Tang Shuang quietly walked out of the tent, not daring to go far, just by the lake to breathe fresh air.
There is a slight smoke on the surface of the lake, and there is an occasional clattering sound, it is the carp in the lake jumping out of the water, and the sun shows most of its face, which is rising rapidly on the horizon, it is a sunny day.
Huang Xiangning came over and confirmed that Tang Shuang and Candy Candy slept very soundly last night, and left two thermos cups with warm water before leaving, and a glass of water should not be missing when they get up.
With the sound of autumn cicadas in the woods, Candy finally got up, looked around with a confused face, and thought she had been kidnapped!
This weekend, after breakfast, Huang Xiangning went shopping with candy and said that he wanted to buy a beautiful autumn coat for the villain. Tang Sanjian habitually went to the academy, no matter if there was anything or not, he would go to see it every day.
Tang Shuang stayed at home and sadly made a code word dog, and he now owes the manuscript.
Just entered the writing state, the phone rang, it was Shi Guangnan, and Tang Shuang was discussing yesterday's story of "Guo Zifeng's Model".
She watched it several times yesterday, and although she was a little scared, she couldn't resist the temptation.
This is the charm of horror stories, and while being scared, I can't help but want to read it.
After Shi Guangnan read it a few times, he decided to use "Guo Zifeng's Model" as the main manuscript of this issue of "Spark" magazine.
At the same time, she saw something different, although the story was very short, but it seemed that it was as if this story was a door, a hole in the ground, through which you could find another unknown, strange and terrifying world.
Shi Guangnan sensed the clues between the lines, like a huge submarine swimming under the water but only making a trace of waves on the surface of the water.
She caught the wave.
So she couldn't help it, and wanted to ask Tang Shuang, the author, if he had a huge horror world hidden in his heart, and "Guo Zifeng's Model" was just a reflection of this world.
The story of "Guo Zifeng's Model" is told in the form of a letter, the letter writer is Yang Shuangshuang, the recipient is one of her best friends, and the content of the letter tells the story of her and her good friend, the ambiguous object Guo Zifeng.
Yang Shuangshuang is a painting student, Guo Zifeng is a talented but impoverished young painter, living in the basement of an old neighborhood, living a poor but passionate life, he always believes that he has a day of fame, and that this day is not far off.
However, just yesterday, he disappeared!
The place where he lived was too secluded and cramped, and even if he died, it wouldn't alarm anyone, so his disappearance didn't cause a single wave.
The only one who knew that he was missing was Yang Shuangshuang, but Yang Shuangshuang did not call the police and was not prepared to call the police.
For no other reason, she just didn't want to go into the basement where Guo Zifeng lived, because there was something in the house!
Before Guo Zifeng met Yang Shuangshuang, many people had already broken off with him, because they were all frightened by Guo Zifeng's paintings!
Guo Zifeng's paintings are too morbid!
Especially the one "Ghoul in Eating"!
Yang Shuangshuang was not frightened, she even thought that Guo Zifeng was the greatest painter in Guangdong, even now, she abandoned Guo Zifeng, she also thought so.
A great painter must have a deep insight into nature, and can paint the creatures in his paintings creepy and vivid, because they understand the anatomy of horror and the physiology of fear, and they can use precise lines and proportions to connect people's sleeping instincts and terrible memories from generation to generation, and stimulate the abnormal sensations that lie dormant in people's minds with the right color and light and shade effects.
Yang Shuangshuang said that if you have seen Guo Zifeng's "Ghoul in Eating", you will sneer at the so-called treasure of the town hall hanging in the Yuezhou Art Museum - "Evil Ghost Night Walking" and laugh heartily.
Because it's so clumsy, it's like an illustration from a cheap ghost story.
When it comes to painting evil spirits, Guo Zifeng is a true genius.
But it is precisely because his paintings are so real and terrifying that no museum or gallery is willing to take them in, and they can only hang in the basement.
What the painter paints is not necessarily what he sees and observes, especially some painters with fantasy themes, who use illusions as models to evoke something close to the real scene from the eerie netherworld.
As can be seen from his paintings, Guo Zifeng has an incomparably rich imagination, and the illusions in his mind are very detailed and realistic.
If not, how could he paint so realistically and intimidatingly, unless......
Unless what?
…… Unless he has a real demon as a model!
But it can't be!
…… Well, maybe.
Guo Zifeng's paintings, the most brilliant and realistic are the faces of the characters!
He was able to paint the facial features and distorted expressions of his characters as if they were underworldly.
It is for this reason that one of Guo Zifeng's friends broke off with him!
This friend of his studied pathology, and a few days before breaking off his friendship with Guo Zifeng, he and the people around him complained that Guo Zifeng's face made him more and more annoying, even to the point of being afraid!
Because the features and expressions on his face are changing little by little, and in a sense, they are definitely not human faces and expressions!
Others are getting farther and farther away from Guo Zifeng, but Yang Shuangshuang is worshipping him more and more.
Yang Shuangshuang is a young and beautiful girl, as the two come into contact more and more frequently, Guo Zifeng becomes more and more attached to her and becomes more and more unable to extricate himself.
Finally, one night, he suggested that if Yang Shuangshuang could keep it a secret and had the guts, he could show her some rather unusual works, much more real and terrifying than those displayed in this basement.
Is it even more frightening than Ghoul in Eating?
A hundred times more frightened!
Although Yang Shuangshuang admires this painting very much, he has to admit that it will cause great uneasiness to people.
So she couldn't imagine what a painting would look like a hundred times more terrifying.
She was both curious and tried to dissuade herself. But in the end, her curiosity took control of her body and followed Guo Zifeng to another of his underground studios.
Although Yang Shuangshuang had been mentally prepared, she was still stunned when she looked at the paintings on the wall, and almost fainted!
She finally understood that Guo Zifeng's "painting as you like" was not just casually talking.
These paintings he hung on the walls were a hundred times more terrifying than "Ghouls in Eating"!
But how to describe these paintings, forgive her for the clumsiness of her language, and can only barely express the indescribable fear in a few words, such as appalling, blasphemous, abomination, spiritual stench, unbelievable, weird, bloody, madness, deformity, sickness, germs, dark forests, cliffs facing the sea, tunnels in all directions......
One thing these paintings have in common is that none of the figures in them retain their full human form, but they all have various degrees of human features, most of them are upright on their feet, leaning forward, looking like a pack of dogs, and their rubber-like skin is disgusting.
The painting depicts them in groups, crowded in cemeteries or tunnels fighting for food, the food is raw meat, drenched in blood, but as for what it is? Yang Shuangshuang did not say explicitly, she must have been frightened.
One of the things that impressed Yang Shuangshuang was a painting called "Class", what a beautiful name, a group of babbling children, learning knowledge in a bright and spacious classroom.
However, this is not the case, and the painting shows a group of unnamed, dog-like objects squatting in a circle in a cemetery, teaching children to eat like them?
Yes!
In this painting of "Class", Guo Zifeng depicts how these children were raised, and as they grow, their facial features and body language are constantly changing!
From this painting, Yang Shuangshuang realized for the first time how the human face is related to the face of those non-human things.
Guo Zifeng has drawn all the pathogenesis of the gradual degradation of human beings and finally becoming completely inhuman, and it turns out that those things like dogs are also human beings!
Subsequently, Yang Shuangshuang discovered another kind of horror!
