I win the game of survival

Chapter 10 Cracked!Ghost Hands Gallery

After all the dolls were shot dead, Ji Xu's expression eased.He loosened his grip a little, but did not let go of Qin Zhengran.

Feeling his stiffness, Ji Xu couldn't help teasing.

"Are you so scared?"

Qin Zhengran firmly denied it.

"I'm not scared, I'm just...just" he broke off.

Ji Xu was pulling Qin Zhengran towards the door, but he didn't hear his words clearly, so he turned around and asked.

"Just what?"

just
Just a little shy!

He screamed in his heart, but said on his mouth.

"Nothing! It's really nothing, don't ask!"

Ji Xu glanced at him and sneered.

"A duplicitous man."

"you--"

Qin Zhengran took a deep breath.

"You know and ask??"

Then he looked at her in disbelief.

"You deliberately.?!!"

Ji Xu's eyes were clear. Although there was no expression on her face, it could make people feel that she was in a good mood at the moment.

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Ji Xu imitated him in his sharp denial, and turned his head back, leaving only a gorgeous and compelling profile.

However, the curvature of her lips revealed her heart.

His throat moved up and down unconsciously, Qin Zhengran snorted softly, and looked away.

"Bad woman."

Ji Xu didn't deny it, and made an inch of it.

"You're right, I'm a bad woman, so don't get close to me."

?

Tell me not to get close to you, then you should let go!
Qin Zhengran pursed his lips, stubbornly and secretly, and moved closer to her.

When the two walked to the door, Ji Xu let go of his hands.

"You have also seen my situation. Another person is already a corpse. It is estimated that the degree of difficulty in other places will not be low. So, tell me, what did you encounter? Qin Zhengran rushed in just now When you were there, you looked red-eyed, what happened to you guys?"

Han Junqing looked calm, but he could see the repressed anger and hatred in it when he looked carefully.

"We were attacked in the gallery on the second floor. Human hands can be stretched out in the painting, one of which is a ghost hand, and Bai Hewei was dragged into the painting by it."

"manpower?"

Ji Xu was expressionless.

"Coincidentally, the dolls who attacked me just now are all human beings, and their limbs are incomplete. It seems that they should have been dead for a while. I guess someone used their corpses to manipulate those dolls."

Gu Jinghai lowered his eyes and pondered, "You mean, the hands in the painting belong to them? But the dolls seem to have arms, and they are quite powerful."

Ji Xu recalled what was under the doll's skin, and explained: "Those corpses are wrapped in black cloth from head to toe, with strange patterns drawn on them, which should be related to the soul. During the battle, I also discovered that they actually have self-awareness." Yes. One of them didn't seem to want to attack me, but he rushed towards me with a cutter."

Gu Jinghai understood it, and then boldly guessed, "So, they were manipulated by others, and they didn't necessarily know that they were dead, so they used dolls as their own bodies? Is this possible? Isn't it a little too ridiculous?"

Ji Xu closed her eyes and carefully recalled everything she saw. When the memory swept across a scene, she opened her eyes.

That crystal object that fell to the ground!
"Theoretically, it's possible. I saw something in the room. At that time, I only felt that there was something wrong with the breath. Now that I think about it, I am also somewhat affected. It is a crystal-like item, which seems to be able to forcibly stimulate spiritual power. "

"That is to say, those dolls are mentally strengthened, and their bodies are stuffed into corpses. Conscious puppets?" Han Junqing's voice was a little dry.

"Not only that, but the lower limbs of several corpses seem to be incomplete." Ji Xu frowned, "Perhaps, human bodies are not needed at all to make dolls and puppets, if it's just to create the illusion that they are still alive, then it only needs... It is enough to keep the head. After all, controlling the brain is equivalent to controlling everything. I guess, the purpose of deliberately creating false appearances is to make the puppet move more flexibly."

"Then what happened to their mutilated bodies?"

Qin Zhengran asked Gu Jinghai and Han Junqing's heartfelt thoughts.

Ji Xu also couldn't give a definite answer, "Their appearance is more like being removed first, and then used in another way, and the rest is used to make puppets. The hands are in the gallery, and the feet are temporarily removed. Know what to do with it."

"Sister Xu, what should we do now?" Han Junqing was a little flustered, "Are we going to save Bai Hewei?"

"of course."

"I didn't intend to let her die like this."

When they came to the second floor, they were surprised to find that those human arms that were cut off by Qin Zhengran had somehow been reattached.

The entire corridor was full of struggling and shaking hands, forming a strong visual impact.

Qin Zhengran and others were very vigilant, but Ji Xu stepped straight in.

"Be careful, although you are very powerful, but be careful to make the Ten Thousand Years Ship." Gu Jinghai reminded.

Ji Xu raised his chin slightly and motioned to them, "Look carefully at these hands, they have no serious intention to attack or stop us."

Han Junqing was a little puzzled, "It seems to be different from when we came here."

He saw Ji Xu's expression was very relaxed, as if he had discovered something.

Ji Xu casually grabbed an arm, pulled it out lightly, and the clear and clear voice sent chills down everyone's backs.

She took the leisurely look of someone's arm, as if she was just picking an apple casually.

Ji Xu took that arm and looked at it carefully.

The owner of the hand should be less than 40 years old. Although the skin has withered, the raised veins can still be seen.

"This is a human hand, without special processing, it comes from ordinary humans."

The implication is that it is not taken from supernatural species such as humanoid monsters.

"These paintings all have some special powers, like adhesives, or the purpose of connecting ports and so on."

"When you came, did these arms show any obvious intention to attack?"

Qin Zhengran lifted his sleeves and said affirmatively, "Yes, there are scratch marks on my body and their bodies."

Ji Xu put his fingertips against his chin and stroked it gently.

"According to what you said before, the passage leading to the third floor on the other side is blocked, so it proves that someone does not want people to go up or down. Considering the 'blocking', the other party's attitude is relatively firm. And Ghost Hand Gallery Although there were actions such as blocking and attacking, they did not capture all of you into the painting, and even let a few of you successfully go upstairs. From this point of view, the attitude does not seem to be strong. Then, I have reason to suspect that this It should be two groups of people, or people from two parties."

Han Junqing said in a deep voice: "Could it be a trap? Seal off one side, and we can only walk through the gallery, that way."

However, it seems a little unreasonable.

If it was a trap, how could the three of them be okay?

"I must have guessed wrong." Han Junqing sighed slightly.

"No, you guessed right." Ji Xu patted him on the shoulder, "I said that there are two groups of people in it, and it doesn't conflict with setting traps."

Gu Jinghai walked to Ji Xu's side and covered her body.

"Did you find anything?"

Ji Xu stood still in front of a painting, smiled and said, "Before answering your question, please answer my question first."

Of course Gu Jinghai would not refuse.

Seeing the ridicule on Ji Xu's face, he knew that this person had a bad idea in his heart, and he sighed helplessly, "Just ask."

"Brother Gu looks like a cultural person at first glance, he must have a wealth of knowledge, and he must have a good appreciation of art."

Gu Jinghai understood, smiled and said, "Do you want to ask me about this painting?"

After speaking, he pointed to the painting in front of Ji Xu.

"That's right, if Brother Gu has any ideas or insights, you can talk to me."

"It can't be said that you have any insights. Compared with me, Xiao Han should know better. However, your vision is indeed unusual, and you have taken a fancy to the highest quality works in the entire corridor at a glance."

"It seems that Brother Gu and I have thought of going together."

After Ji Xu finished speaking, he turned to look at Han Junqing.

"Did you find anything from these paintings?"

Han Junqing hesitated and said, "In terms of discovery, all the paintings in the entire corridor should be made by one person, does that count?"

Ji Xu glanced at him appreciatively.

"Forget it, why not? I can judge it from the special power that I sensed spiritually, and you rely on professional aspects such as painting habits, brushwork, color tone, and artistic aesthetics to discover this. We can just confirm each other."

After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and tapped her chin lightly.

"It's just that I find it strange that the emotions conveyed by all the paintings are relatively neutral, without too much anger or joy. I can feel that the artist is very calm when painting, just a simple look depicting a scene, object, portrait."

"However, this painting is different."

After speaking, he paused slightly.

"The picture is a street scene of a small town bathed in light. Most of the brushwork is concentrated on depicting the architectural style, and it is easy for people to overlook the few characters that appear in it. A man and a woman account for a relatively large proportion. , although there is only a vague back view, it is obvious that they are the couple. Through the clothes and demeanor, it can be seen that the other party's identity is extraordinary, and under the tree next to it, there is a little girl who is waving at them with a smile on her face .”

Han Junqing said in surprise: "That's true. It feels like the author is conveying a warm emotion."

Gu Jinghai nodded in agreement, "Every part of the picture is beautiful, and it can be seen that the writing is very strong."

"It's not just that."

Ji Xu sighed inwardly.

"In my opinion, all works of art are a mirror of the creator. This painting represents happiness, which belongs to the artist himself. If you observe carefully, you will find that most of the other works only show It has made the painter eighty-nine times successful. Only this one painting can be called the pinnacle work."

Several people looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant, nor seeing what was wrong with the painting.

"All the paintings in the corridor have no names, but in the corner of this work, 'Fierlino Town' is written stroke by stroke."

If it is a personal habit, then what is the magical power of this painting that made the author break the habit?

If the name of the painting was not left because the work could not impress me, then this painting must have touched the heart of the other party.

Ji Xu stretched out his hand and slowly stroked the painting in front of him.

Even through a layer of gloves, you can feel the clear coolness coming from it.

"Activate prop ability - one-way world/touch reality."

On her left hand, she wears a special prop "ghost glove".When activating the ability, the wearer can touch reality, material things.

In other words, immaterial, unreal things cannot be touched.

Qin Zhengran and the others opened their eyes wide.

I saw Ji Xu's hand stretching into the painting without hindrance!
Ji Xu actually attacked directly and took the initiative! !

No one seems to have expected this to happen.

Originally, they could only be forced to accept the horrific picture of a ghost dragging a person into the painting. However, at this moment, their cognition was subverted, the terrifying scene was completely broken, and the roles changed in an instant.

Her movement caused a commotion in the originally lazy and silent corridor, and countless arms danced ferociously in the air.

"You can fool everyone, but you can't fool me."

Ji Xu showed a cruel smile.

"People all over the world will think that you are simply interpreting a warm picture, but in fact, all your emotions, bewildered joy, and real happiness are all responding to the woman in the painting, responding to her The smile that was deliberately blurred by you."

"She wasn't waving at this couple at all. The prototype of this couple should be just two passers-by. In order to cover up all this, you replaced her parents, but you deliberately drew them roughly, just wanting to be aboveboard in the dark. Show off your treasures, am I right?"

"A commoner painter who fell in love with a noble lady."

Ji Xu shook his head helplessly, with a regretful expression.

"You guys even went on a date together. The place of your first date is the small town of Ferlino."

Ji Xu stretched her entire arm into the painting, and finally, she touched a person.

Provoking a triumphant smile, Ji Xu pulled hard.

"I caught you, Ghost Painter."
