Chapter 165: Strange Paintings

I gave Zhang Jun a little concession and said, "There may be someone in here just now." ”

"What should we do, shall we go in and have a look?" Zhang Jun glanced at it a few times, obviously not satisfied.

"Then let's go in."

As I spoke, I slowly pushed open the carved wooden door, which let out a scream that pierced my eardrums, and my heart was already in my throat, and I turned to make sure that there was no one outside, and then crept into the room.

There was a strange smell in the room, and the smell was similar to the fragrance on Satsuki's body, and I went around the screen to make sure that someone was here just now.

Because there is an unfinished figure painting on the table, the painting is lifelike, and I can confirm that this should still be the portrait of the bride, but this time she is not wearing a red dress but a ** female body scrubbing her body.

At first glance, the woman in the portrait looks a little like a white fairy under a veil, but on closer inspection, it doesn't look like it at all, and I can't say where it doesn't look like it, but I just feel this way inexplicably.

In addition, there were several scrolls inserted in the painting bucket, and I opened it to look at it and found that all the paintings were of the woman, and some of the contents were unsightly and live like pictures of the Spring Palace.

But I have to admire the painter's painting work, I think he can publish these paintings to the world, and he is definitely the number one master in the world of calligraphy and painting, but I don't know why he is willing to hide here and paint this woman.

Zhang Jun said on the side: "Master He, this is not painted by Shang Yulin before his death!" ”

I shook my head, and walked around the room again, and found that there were all kinds of items inside, including a lot of powder boxes.

So I think this should be Shang Yuqing's boudoir before her death, and the beauty in the painting should also be the protagonist, but what makes me wonder is who will still paint this woman a portrait today, a hundred years later?

At this time, suddenly an old man in the courtyard was reading a scripture that he did not understand, Zhang Jun and I looked at each other and opened a window, through the window I saw an old man wearing a hat kneeling in the coffin position in the courtyard.

By his size, I recognized him as the Shang Yulin who sold my crab in the morning, but I couldn't see a little ghost in him, but I knew deep down that this was an old man who had been dead for decades!

After some hesitation, I made up my mind and said: "Does Zhang Jun bring a gun, if so, he must be shot in the leg for a while, so as not to let him run away." ”

Zhang Jun nodded, took out his pistol and hung up the insurance with a "click", and prepared to shoot.

I rolled out of the doorway with my head in my arms, so that I could prevent anyone from shooting at me when I went out. Once I was sure it was safe, I quickly slid down the second floor with both hands on the large column.

At the same time, Shang Yulin also noticed me, but he didn't mean to run, but quickened his speech, hoping to complete his mission before I reached him.

As I got closer, Shang Yulin suddenly leaned down and fell to the ground and mourned, muttering incantations that I didn't understand.

When I ran to the coffin, I heard a "click" sound, like a group of things were eating the coffin of Hessewood.

My first feeling was whether there would be zombies in this coffin, so I couldn't help but bypass a little, and at this time, the bottom of the coffin side had been bitten open a big crack, and a group of black things crawled out of the black pressure inside.

It turned out that this was a group of crabs, and in just one minute, they crawled all over the coffin, and some of them fell to the ground without grabbing them, desperately holding the marble bricks with big pliers.

Thousands of large crabs, coupled with the big clucking pincers that made it rain, gave me goosebumps.

At this moment, Yu Lin stood up, smiled slightly and turned to run, Zhang Jun condescendingly slammed a shot into his leg.

I could see that his black pants were all torn, but there was no blood coming out of them, and Shang Yulin was running faster.

"Damn, it's really not a living person."

I took a big stride and just stepped on the crab, and it was just like that that I noticed that the ground was already crawling with crabs, and they were crawling like my feet in an orderly manner.

I pulled out my sword and plunged it straight into the ground to prevent myself from falling to the ground with a fork, and then my arm bounced my body out of the crab's encirclement.

"Zhang Jun, run, this crab will bite."

As soon as I finished speaking, Zhang Jun scrambled to slap on his body, apparently a crab had already climbed on him, and then his room was on fire, which I guess was caused by him knocking over the candle in his panic.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jun got out and slid down holding the pillar just now, and asked anxiously: "What should Master He do!" ”

By this time a crab had crawled up to my instep, and I shook it to the ground and kicked it into a pulp, saying, "Of course it ran away." ”

"But there was a fire." Zhang Jun hesitated.

"I don't care so much, these crabs are not ordinary! It is more harmful to let them run out, it is better to let the fire burn them. ”

After speaking, I dragged Zhang Jun and ran, and the moment I lifted and fell, I felt that my feet were soft, and I don't know which guys who were not well transported were crushed by our step.

We ran up the wall along the route of Shang Yulin's escape, and looked back to see that the wall was crawling with crabs, but the fire was relentless, and the mentally handicapped creatures that burned it exploded, but it still couldn't stop those things from pouring into the fire one after another.

"Crazy crazy, what's wrong with these crabs?"

Zhang Jun was terrified when he saw it, because we all knew that if we were crawling all over our bodies by these things, we would be bitten by them in less than half an hour.

The fire burned more and more, and we had to withdraw, and soon this century-old building that had witnessed history was engulfed in the fire.

Of course, the crabs that seemed to have fallen under a spell were also devoured.

The smell of meat fills the air, wafting far away.

Zhang Jun and I came to the calm shore and searched around by the light of the fire, but we didn't find any shadow of Shang Yulin.

"Master He, that person just now, is it a human or a ghost?" Zhang Jun also knew that he had just been shot, so he asked.

I thought for a moment and said, "I guess it's the same type as those people in the corpse cave." ”

Zhang Jun pursed his lips, sighed and said, "Master He, I think there is something I have to mention to you." ”

I stopped: "What's the matter?" ”

"The matter of the case." Zhang Jun was a little irritable, and finally found a box of flattened cigarettes on his body for a long time, took out one and lit it and smoked it.

"Isn't it convenient to say?" I asked.

Zhang Jun nodded and said, "There's nothing inconvenient to put now, everyone is lost." ”

"About Zhang Qian's case?" I felt my heart pound instantly.

Zhang Jun still nodded.

I wondered again: "Is there a connection with the girl in the red dress?" ”

"Hmm."

Zhang Jun spat out a puff of smoke rings and couldn't help but bury his head.

I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I don't think she'll die that easily." ”
