When Lan Tian arrived at the haunted house, he gently placed the set of cosmetics he had bought for the female ghost in purple on the dresser, which included lipstick, eyebrow pencil, foundation cream, and purple nail polish. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lan Tian swept the bare bed where the female ghost in purple slept last night, and spread the purple sheet on the bed of the female ghost in purple.
Lan Tian only left seven pieces of tofu on the table, Lan Tian originally wanted to take these seven pieces of tofu to the kitchen and cook them for the woman in purple to eat, but he suddenly remembered that an old man once said that ghosts are eaten raw, so he listened to the old man and stopped cooking them. At the same time, he innocently wanted to let this woman in purple eat her full, because she was miserable to see, no wonder she cried all night! Even if a man is hungry, he will cry out, let alone a ghost.
Lan Tian took two pieces and went to the kitchen to cook and eat, he decided to drink some wine tonight to strengthen his courage.
At night, Lan Tian went upstairs after drinking and eating, and he lit the candle again, but he found a very strange problem, the half of the candle last night went to bed by himself and did not blow it out, why is it still half a candle? Could it be that the female ghost in purple blew it out later?
At this time, Lan Tian began to take out the three oil paintings painted by the purple-clothed female ghost again, and when he opened the paintings, he was dumbfounded.
Lan Tian saw that there was already a blank on the three pieces of paper, which were three blank sheets of paper. The three pattern paintings painted by the female ghost in purple disappear without a trace like a magician.
Lan Tian panicked and took out all the painted oil painting manuscripts and carefully checked them, but there was still nothing.
The three paintings were gone, and Lan Tian became uneasy.
He sat down in his chair, and he was stunned.
Could it be that I talked to Lao Zhao this afternoon about this haunted house and was known by the female ghost in purple? Is she upset? I didn't reveal any information about these three paintings! Did someone steal these three of my paintings? That's even more impossible, because in the morning I put these three paintings in the package, and the outer seal was also tied in a dead knot, and I didn't leave half a step with it, if I met a thief, the package would be gone!
Lan Tian muttered to himself and couldn't figure it out! He was haunted by a series of strange and doubtful things.
Lan Tian sighed, he stood up and began to paint diligently.
About two hours later, Lan Tian's homework was finished, and he lay on the bed and read again.
At night, there is silence. Downstairs came the miserable cry of the female ghost, which was like a mournful fox crying, melodious and long.
Lan Tian, who was reading a book, shuddered in his heart again, but he didn't have yesterday at this time
So scared. He put down the book and pricked up his ears and listened quietly, and he always felt that this woman had a sad resentment.
After the woman cried for a while, two more women came downstairs talking softly, the voice was very small, like a "buzzing" cry of Mifeng, indistinct. Two women, you say a word, and I am chattering and talking. Suddenly, a woman sighed softly, and another female ghost immediately comforted her gently.
In this way, the two female ghosts talked endlessly downstairs, as if they could never finish talking about the topic.
Lan Tian listened quietly, as if he was listening to someone speak a foreign language, and he didn't understand a word. His eyebrows furrowed, and he fell asleep unconsciously.
The next morning, the sky was hazy, and it was raining heavily, and the pouring rain hit the windows, and the flowing water was like countless huge earthworms winding down the window glass.
There was a loud thunderclap in the sky, and Lan Tian woke up violently.
Lan Tian opened his loose eyes, only to find that it was dawn. He couldn't remember when he had fallen asleep last night. Lan Tian suddenly remembered the female ghost in purple.
With excitement and fear, he turned his head and glanced at the bed where the woman in purple slept and found that it was empty. However, his nose smelled a faint scent of violet cosmetics on the purple sheets, which he had bought.
When Lan Tian got up to look at the seven pieces of tofu, there were still five pieces left, and she ate two pieces. When he looked at the makeup set again; Lipstick, brushes, nail polish, all the seals were torn. The two small pens placed on the top box of cosmetics were dipped in red and purple pigment marks.
Lan Tian knew that this female ghost in purple had been here last night, and Lan Tian suddenly felt melancholy and a sense of loss.
Are you bewitched by the beauty of the woman in purple? Or do you expect this woman in purple to tell you where the treasure is hidden in this haunted house?
Lan Tian really didn't know.
Lan Tian was looking forward to seeing if the purple-clothed female ghost had drawn any more pictures for him on the table, but after looking closely, there was no painting she had drawn.
A faint sadness appeared on Lan Tian's handsome face.
It was raining heavily outside today, Lan Tian was simply lazy to swing the fader, he got dressed and went downstairs to wash up and make breakfast.
After breakfast, the heavy rain stopped again.
Lan Tian saw that the sun outside the house came out, and he wanted to go up the mountain behind him for a walk, so he opened the back and walked out.
There was a narrow path at the back door, but it was overgrown with weeds, but the road was faintly recognizable, so Lan Tian walked aimlessly through the wet grass.
After the rain, the sun came out. The lush foliage and weeds of the mountains are surrounded by smoke, and the smell of heat and the scent of flowers and plants wafts through the nose.
Lan Tian walked a winding path about 20 meters on the flat slope and came to the turning place, when turning the corner, Lan Tian was surprised to see a small waterfall, the waterfall water fell from the top of the mountain like lime retreat, it was very spectacular and beautiful. Below the waterfall is a pond of rippling water, which is still clear despite the rain that has just begun. There was a dark cave under the waterfall, and Lan Tian wanted to play in the cave.
When Lan Tian went to the cave to look, he was shocked to see the stone wall, and there were yellow wax stones everywhere under his feet, and there were four colors: red, yellow, white, and black, and these yellow wax stones were very soft in light transmission and refraction.
Lan Tian bent down and picked up a piece of golden yellow wax stone, he saw that it was a high-grade frozen wax, this stone has no dirty spots, stone tendons, radish silks, no cracks, no dead wax.
When Lan Tian turned to look behind him, he found that there was a natural purple ice wax stone, purple in color refracted by the sun, like a purple gem, shining brightly. The stone is rectangular in shape, about 30 centimeters long.
So Lan Tian picked up three wax stones, one golden yellow, one white, and this purple ice wax stone, and hurriedly ran back to the ghost room.
Lan Tian had also learned carving techniques from his master, and Lan Tian's carving skills were better than his portrait paintings. He knew that the properties of yellow wax stone could be used for carving, because his master had taught him about the art of yellow wax stone carving.
Lan Tian panted and carried the wax stones to the upper room of the haunted house.
After Lan Tian rested for a while, he took out the diamond drill and wooden hammer from the package, and carved the purple-colored ice wax stone, and with the sound of "zhengzheng" and "snort", and after the pieces of broken stone fell off, a statue was completed soon after. Then Lan Tian dipped the sand in the water and gently polished it until he was satisfied.
This sculpture is a statue of a female ghost in purple, and Lan Tian is very good at materials, he uses a small white patch of purple ash stone to carve her face, and everything else is purple. Lantian craftsmanship is exquisite and precise, which is really ingenious.
This statue of a female ghost in purple was carved by Lan Tian vividly, that temperament, that expression, that cold beauty, the whole sculpture is as transparent and soft as water, and it is like a real person.
After Lan Tian finished carving profusely, he looked at it and felt very satisfied. So he gently placed the sculpture on the dresser.
Lan Tian carved the golden ** wax stone into a lifelike flying dragon, the whole dragon body was golden and shining, and the golden dragon seemed to be soaring through the clouds.
After the carving, Lan Tian carved several bracelets from ash stone, each of which was clear and exquisite, which was very lovely.
In the evening, after Lan Tian had eaten, due to the fatigue of the day, he drew a few pictures and went to bed.
In the middle of the night, the whole house was surprisingly quiet, and everything was quiet except for the occasional sound of eagles chirping and whispering on the hill outside.
Lan Tianjue was strange, he didn't hear a female ghost cry tonight.
Lan Tian waited for most of the night, but never heard a cry.
Lan Tian fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, early in the morning, fine.
When Lan Tian woke up, he found that the bed of the female ghost in purple was still empty except for the purple sheets.
However, he also smelled a faint smell of violets on her bed.
Lan Tian smiled.
When he got up, he found that the tofu was missing two more pieces, and now that it was too hot, he was ready to throw away the remaining pieces and replace them with fresh ones.
When Lan Tian was about to go to the dresser to brush his artist's hair, he was taken aback to find that the statue of the purple-clothed female ghost on the dresser was missing.
However, his carved golden dragon statue and several white jade bracelets were safely placed on the table.
Lan Tian hurriedly opened the door and ran downstairs to see if the door and back door were bolted, but he found that all the bolts were fine.
Lan Tian was dumbfounded.
