Chapter 268: The Mystery in the Painting (Part I)
Chapter 268 Mystery in the Painting (I)
The opposite wall seemed to be darker, not because of the bad lighting. It's because the murals over there are almost all made up of small murals, so they look even darker. We came to the front of the mural opposite, the mural here seems to be more simple in painting, many of the murals are similar to stick figures, it is easy to imagine that when creating this mural, the artist seems to be a little inadequate, maybe because the mood has become bad, maybe because the time has become short.
"The mural here is a little too sketchy, why do many characters have no expressions, and there are no houses and other accompanying scenes, there are only people in the picture, which looks a little monotonous." What Sister Wang Na said is exactly what I want to say, the painting here is obviously achieved overnight, without the previous composition and layout, it looks very casual.
The first painting is composed of four small paintings, and there are basically only two people on it, Princess Gulun and the concubine, most of them depict two people who are newly married and in love, the two are in love, and the scene of the moon before the flower, but there is no problem, but the gift in the brocade box that we were curious about before, did not find the answer, this painting has nothing to do with the gift.
"Why didn't you say what kind of gift you sent, I'm still waiting to see it, isn't this a frame for me, I said Yin Yin, could it be that in fact, this mural has nothing to do with this gift?" Dazhe said that everyone seemed to have the same concerns, so they all looked at me and thought that I knew the same result, as if I had painted this painting.
"I don't know what the hell is going on. I don't know why the painting doesn't say anything about gifts, maybe it's just that they weren't opened. I said, but my explanation was weak, and I wanted to know what it had to do with me, and why I was so habitually explained, which clearly had nothing to do with me.
"There's no point in let's talk about this, isn't this painting right in front of us? Let's just go and see. Dazhe said, I felt as if I had found a savior, so I quickly led everyone over.
When I got to the next painting, I immediately stayed where I was. Because there was something in that painting that I was familiar with. In this painting, the princess finally opens the brocade box. There is a box inside, and there is no doubt that the box is the one I brought out in the ancient tomb of Shandong, and it is exactly the same. On the frescoes. This box is depicted blooming in all directions. It seems to indicate what kind of treasure is carried inside.
"My God, why does this box look so familiar, isn't it..." Looking at my face, I was afraid that I had said something wrong.
"Sister Yinyin, is this your family's box?" Yun Ning asked in a low voice.
"Well, that's right, but this shouldn't be my one, because if that one was buried in the Shandong Ancient Tomb, it shouldn't be the one." I say.
"Not necessarily, maybe the princess died later, and the antiques flowed out, and the pawnshop took advantage of the loophole?" Yun Xian said.
"Not necessarily, because there shouldn't be just one box." I say.
"What, you said that cheating daddy's box, the terrifying box, there is more than one." Dazhe said in fear.
"In my judgment, it should be like this." I say.
"Okay, Yin Yin, so what do you think will be in the box this time? Is it still the key, look at this posture, don't have any treasures in it. "Dazhe's eyes light up when he sees a baby.
"This box is a gift, because the box itself is already priceless." Yun Ximing said.
"That's right, so I guess this is a gift, it's this box, you think, if it's not this box but the contents of the box, it's a gift, why is this box still packed into a brocade box, just give the box to the princess." I say.
"Yin girl, let's continue to watch and see if there are any hints." Uncle Lu said.
"Okay." I walked back with the rest of the group, and the murals here started to get complicated again. There are six small frescoes, one of which is about the early morning, and the princess must have just gotten up, still disheveled and with her hair disheveled, but she was sitting on the bed with the flask.
"Drinking early in the morning, huh?" Lin Zhuang said with emotion.
"Lin Zhuang, you don't understand, people are royal people, they are all like this, this is called rich and capricious." Dazhe said.
"No, I don't think it's right, this princess is a little weird, he doesn't look like the one we saw before, the princesses we saw before were all gentle, knowledgeable, and proficient in dancing, but now this person is really not like her when he drinks heavily in the morning." I say.
"Is it possible that after getting married, his temperament changed so much?" Yun Xian said.
"A big change in temperament is a certainty, the question is why there is a big change in temperament." Min Lan asked.
We continued to look at the remaining small murals, the scene kept changing, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the appearance of the princess drinking, and there were a few paintings with the familiar blue figure, but now the back of the specially marked author is no longer the focus of our attention, and we began to explore why the princess suddenly began to drink so much.
"This is a stop drinking all the time, is this princess seriously ill, that's why she keeps drinking like this?" Yun Ning said.
"I don't know, in short, the only thing that is certain is that the princess's living habits and lifestyle have changed drastically." Sister Wang Na said, "Let's look down." ”
The painting on the next mural is really incredible, the description above is very simple, but it looks very weird, there are paintings of Princess Gulun everywhere, there are probably seven or eight paintings, and it is not like that small mural, this time the characters on the mural are very chaotic, there is no order to ask, and the characters even overlap. The movements of the princess above are also very weird, I don't know what strange dance she is dancing, her body presents different postures, sometimes squatting, sometimes curling.
"What's going on? Did you do some weird dance? Why does it look so strange? Look at this arm, if this is an ordinary person, twisted like this, it will be broken? Dazhe pointed to an arm and said, that arm was indeed curled up in a strange position, twisting to the right back.
"This should be soft skills, the princess has learned to dance, and it is not uncommon to have such kung fu." Uncle Lu said.
"But this dance is too strange, no matter how you look at it, there is no beauty." Min Lan said.
"This dance must have been danced for a long time, you look at this corner." Yun Ximing pointed to a place in the lower right corner. There is a figure there, although small, but vividly portrayed, it is the palace maid who strokes the qin, but at this time her fingers have been bleeding from playing the piano, which shows that the princess has been dancing for too long.
"I think it's unusual for this princess to be like this, she can't be crazy, right?" Dazhe said.
"You're right this time, the princess is really crazy, just like the pawnshop owner." I say. "Blood Sacrifice, there is a Blood Sacrifice on that box in our family, and anyone who touches it will trigger the Blood Sacrifice, thus summoning the demons of hell. I don't know what kind of demon the princess has summoned, which is why it became like this. ”
"No, this painting doesn't seem to be a dance." Dazhe said suddenly.
"What's the matter, Dazhe, what did you find?" I asked.
"You see, on this painting, is this princess either sitting or squatting all the time, doing some strange movements? Does this look like riding on something? Could they be—" Dazhe didn't finish his sentence, but we all understood what he meant.
The princess and the colt are married, so naturally they will do some boudoir things between husband and wife, but it is indeed very creative to let the maid next to them accompany the music.
"Isn't this princess too good at playing?" Dazhe asked.
"This should be caused by the blood sacrifice, and the princess should not be a normal human now, but the colt is probably suffering from it." I say.
"Why does the princess become so crazy that no one cares, and she is still allowed to act like this." Sister Wang Na said.
"The princess is a noble man, and is loved by her servants and concubines, and I suspect that they deliberately concealed her illness in order not to let outsiders know. They may still be fantasizing about one day curing the princess of her illness. I said.
"Poor colt, just married and not enjoying the sweet life of two, the princess suddenly became like this, I don't know what will happen after that." Yun Xian said.
"Loving someone will not change your love for her because of her momentary change, the colt and the princess have been in love for many years, and they have been separated, but they have never reduced their love for each other, so I think the colt must be waiting for the day when the princess recovers." I say.
"The colt is so infatuated, so pitiful, I don't know if he waited for it in the end." Sister Wang Na said and began to sniff.
"Apparently not." Wu Teng's voice suddenly sounded, and the kind of voice that was neither male nor female sounded really uncomfortable. "It is said that Princess Heshuo was thirty years old when she died, and Princess Gulun was only twenty-eight years old, so it can be inferred that it is not much different from her current age, so it can be seen that the princess died soon after this, and I am afraid that the waiting of the concubine will come to naught." Wu Teng said.
"It's a pity, why can't God take care of this pair of lovers, I don't know what will happen to the colt in the future." Sister Wang Na said.
"The tragic ending is that the colt died before the princess." Yun Ximing said and pointed to the next mural, he didn't know when he walked in front of the next mural, pointed to the mural, and shook his head helplessly. "In the end, the colt did not wait for the princess to be cured of her strange illness, because he died." (To be continued......)
