Section 450 The vanishing half of the parchment
The third drawing is special......
Because this is the most unclear drawing, the whole parchment is covered with intricate lines. I don't know what these lines are drawn with, and they are still clear even after countless years, completely turning the picture into a mess. At first glance, it looks like a child's angry graffiti. It seems that someone is deliberately destroying the original painting, so that later generations will not be able to know the content of the painting.
But in Jules's eyes, something is different.
She faintly made out a back, the same back as the first painting. Only this time the back is not painting, but looking at something. The image in front of her had been ruined by the lines. Jules could only tell by his senses that it seemed to be a cosmic nebula. It's kind of like a whirlpool, and there's something in it. At this moment, the strangest thing happened, and I don't know if the lines were too messy or the lights in the room were shaking, Jules suddenly felt that the picture was 'alive', and the girl in the back slowly turned around and glanced at her.
There was a sudden tingling in his head, and Jules threw down the scroll with an 'ah'.
"Miss!" Hans stood nervously, a horrified look in his eyes. Because at that moment he suddenly felt that the young lady was no longer familiar, as if there was suddenly another soul in her, a terrible ghost that made him shudder!
But this feeling was only fleeting, and he saw the young lady throw down the scroll. In the anxiety of the heart, I have to step forward.
"I'm fine." That's when it happened. Jules spoke again, a faint gasp. "No need to come here, let me ...... Let me take a break. ”
"Since you're a little uncomfortable, let's not look at it today." Hans said with concern. "Anyway, these paintings are already in hand, as long as Miss takes good care of them, there will be time in the future."
"............" Jules was silent. He just stared at the scroll at his feet, and shook his head after a while. Hans's offer was rejected.
"No, I'm going to watch it."
"Miss!" Hans was in a hurry. He found that although the scrolls looked simple, Jules looked as if he was enchanted. In just a few minutes, there was an emotional disorder and a splitting headache. If you keep reading. He didn't know what was going to happen to him.
Hell, Miss is now the only heir to the family's orthodox bloodline. If something happened to her, Hans couldn't imagine that this ancient family would be able to continue.
Because their family is different from any other family in the Fifth Realm today, all inheritances are completely determined by blood. In other words, Jules is the family, and the family is Jules, if there is no Jules. There is no such thing as a family.
It's a pity that even if Hans is one of the most core members of the family, he can't stop Jules's decision. He sat down helplessly and watched Jules pick up the parchment again.
The third painting......
"What the hell are you ...... What are you going to tell me? ”
Jules murmured imperceptibly, focusing his gaze on the painting again.
In front of her was just an ordinary piece of parchment, on which the painting would of course not move. But Jules knew that it was not the painting that moved, but her heart, her spirit, her thoughts, the most mysterious and unfathomable remnants of her blood.
These scrolls brought out by Hans from the Cemetery of the First Ancestors are ordinary lines in the eyes of anyone. There is no substance. But in her eyes, it was completely different. Although he could not say why, Jules seemed to be able to feel the condensed thoughts on any of these lines. It was mysterious, like a drug, that appealed to her.
The gaze fell on the scroll again. This time, the picture scroll is back to the ordinary. No matter what Jules did, the scroll never changed. …,
Don't...... Are you nervous?
Jules thought strangely, and was about to put down the scroll. At this moment, because of the change of angle. Suddenly, she felt that the picture scroll had changed again. Faintly in the countless chaotic lines show the object that the girl is facing. Jules was startled and hurriedly looked westward.
See...... She saw it......
It was a ball...... Or rather, a small black dot. The black dot is so small that it is almost non-existent, and it is impossible to notice it if you don't look closely. Coupled with the light and messy lines, it feels like a drop of ink that has accidentally fallen on a painting. But if you match the movements and postures of the girl on the back in the picture......
That's right!! The girl on the back is looking at this black spot. That's what it is!!
In an instant, Jules was finally sure. My heart was beating violently. Although she didn't know what the painting meant to her. But there is no doubt that this inconspicuous black dot is the core of the picture!!
If you look at the whole picture scroll together, then its meaning is that in some mysterious place, the girl in the back is observing an inexplicable sphere!
Wait a minute...... Maybe it shouldn't be observed. If...... If...... What about the word discovery?
Found!?
This girl with a back, a long, long time ago, found something in a mysterious place!??
His heart was beating violently, and Jules vaguely felt as if he had grasped some clue. A very mysterious, very scary, and hidden clue for countless years. Her bloodline, her family, everything, comes from these paintings.
Yes, the origin of all events!
The room was as silent as death, and for a moment you could hear a pin drop on the floor. Jules stared at the scroll, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind that he could not even imagine. Opposite her, Hans looked nervously at Jules. I'm afraid that something will happen to her.
Jules' expression was so serious, so focused. Before I knew it, beads of sweat appeared on the tip of my nose. Suddenly, Hans felt his eyes blur for a moment, and he saw a vague shadow behind Jules.
"Miss!!" Horrified in his heart, Hans screamed without even thinking about it, and threw himself at Jules.
But he had just come together. Suddenly the shadow was gone. Hans's movements also stiffened into the air.
"Huh?" Jules looked up and gave Hans a strange look. "What are you doing?"
"I'm ......," Hans sweated profusely. Said nervously. "I ...... I saw a strange shadow. ”
"What are you talking about?" Jules followed Hans's gaze and glanced behind him. frowned. "I think you're too nervous at the Ancestral Graveyard. There were just the two of us here. There is no shadow. ”
"But Miss!" Hans had to argue. But I heard Jules interrupt coldly.
"Sit down. Hans, don't bother me. ”
"This ...... Good...... All right. Hans had no choice but to sit down again. But his eyes were fixed on Jules's rear.
It wasn't dazzling, he swears. He did see a shadow. A woman's shadow that should never be in this room!!
But Jules didn't know all this. At this moment, all her spirit was drawn to the painting. In the bright light, she tried to flip a lot of angles. Trying to find something else from the scroll. But nothing came of it. Even the black dots from before are gone.
The third painting becomes a myriad of chaotic lines. As if graffiti.
"Is that all?" Jules muttered softly. Put down the parchment. Then he turned his gaze to the fourth scroll.
There aren't too many complicated lines in this picture. It's just a little vague. But it's basically a city. One side is thriving, and the other side is ruins. The city is faintly separated by a road in the middle. The back of the woman was still on the road. …,
"What does that mean?" Jules looked at it strangely. I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't think of the meaning. In the end, I reluctantly let go.
All that's left is the fifth parchment.
It is also the last one.
The first four parchments all reveal some information to Jules. Although this information is vague, it also faintly makes Jules feel something. Then this fifth. It is also the last piece of parchment, and what important secrets will be hidden?
Jules' heart stirred, and he slowly opened the parchment.
But then, she cried out.
"How so!"
Fifth ...... That is, the last piece of parchment. It's not complete! Instead, he was cut in half!! And the picture above is not complicated. It's still the mysterious woman. Only this time she left Jules not with a back, but from the side. I saw her hanging her head and leaning softly against a big tree. Hands and wings hang down to the side. At her feet was a massive amount of blood spreading. And the source of the blood is her chest......
This woman ...... He's dead?
Jules' eyes widened in disbelief. These paintings revolve around this woman. She thought that this woman had something to do with the family bloodline. But I didn't expect it. This is the case with the last painting.
The woman died.
How could she die?
What will she die for!
Her death...... What does it have to do with your family? What is the connection with your own bloodline?
The clue was broken at this moment! What angered Jules the most was that the cause of the woman's death, that is, half of the picture of the woman in the painting, was cut off by life. It was as if someone had deliberately hidden the secret. That sad feeling made Jules want to go crazy.
"Hell! Damn it! Damn it! For what! What will be only half for 龗! ”
"Hans! Tell me only half of what to do! What about the other half? Where is the other half? ”
"Miss......" Hans shrugged helplessly. That's all. When I got them, the fifth parchment was only half there. I've given it all to you. ”
"But...... That's not all! Jules said angrily. It should still have half and the most important half. ”
"I'm sorry, miss."
"You ......" Jules glared at Hans, only to feel a surge of anger in his heart. But in the end, it all turned into a sigh. "Forget it...... I know you've done your best. I don't blame you. ”
"Thank you for your understanding, miss."
"Get out of the way. I'm going to be quiet and tell Sarah. No one is allowed to disturb me. ”
"But Miss...... Your current status. ”
"Go ahead, I'm fine."
Jules waved his hand and let Hans out of the room. Watch as the door to the room slowly closes. She only felt that her mind was chaotic, and there was a faint pain.
"And what is it that has lost half of it?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, and your support. That's what motivates me the most. )
