The abnormal daily life of a painter

"Okay, that's amazing, how did you do it?" A half-demon boy stared at the wooden board in Zheng Yichen's hand in astonishment. They would never have thought that Long Luo, the leader of the Four Fighting Gods, would be directly killed by Zheng Yichen.

"This is a very dangerous force, please don't move yet." Zheng Yichen waved his hand, so that those curious little half-demons should not go up and watch. He drew a new picture on the wooden board with a brush, and then painted it The small detector that came out was taken out.

This thing is the equivalent of Geiger for detecting radiation.

However, this thing is not used to detect radiation, but to detect information field pollution and unstable areas in the environment. The two look very similar, but they are actually quite different. Information field pollution generally comes from certain individuals, not In the stable domain, an additional information field will be generated due to instability.

This kind of information field does not come from a certain individual, nor is it necessarily a harmful information field. Occasionally, good things will appear, just like when some research is carried out, because of the changes brought about by the unstable domain , leading to additional 'variation' in studies that are unlikely to succeed or that are doomed to fail, and the outcome of the variation is still good.

This kind of information field can be classified as benign information field influence rather than information field pollution.

The detector he drew screamed, Zheng Yichen threw the thing in his hand into the deep pit with red light on the edge, clapped his hands: "Okay, don't get close, there is a Strong information field pollution, although the scope is small, but too close may also produce some kind of malignant distortion.”

"...Then you're still that close?" The half-demon boy curled his lips slightly.

"I can unleash this attack, can you?"

"..."

"I'll leave a seal." Kikyo took out a few paper cranes from her sleeves, and these paper cranes landed near the deep pit, forming a protective barrier. During the process, she tried to purify Zheng Yichen and said information field pollution.

But the effect is very poor. Information field pollution is not like demon power, miasma or evil energy. That kind of thing is a very unique "distortion". The main effect of purification is to eliminate it, and that kind of distortion is the product of normal things being distorted , Purification cannot be said to be useless, but it is not targeted.

If you want to solve this kind of pollution more efficiently, you should use the method of 'correction' instead of purification.

However, this kind of information field pollution is rootless water, if left alone, the environment will slowly correct it, but it will take a long time.

"This thing won't affect Penglai Island, right?

Zheng Yichen looked at the group of half-monster children and said: "People will not die if they don't want to die. As long as no one jumps in on their own initiative, nothing will happen to them. Will you jump in without thinking? Or do you jump in out of curiosity? Some kind of monster?"

"Uh, of course not." The other half-demon boy immediately shook his head. He was similar in appearance to the half-demon boy who had just spoken, but his hair color was a little different.

"That's all right, you're the only ones left on this island?"

"... Well, back then, Penglai Island was a very happy place. Humans, monsters and half-demons lived here carefree. Because of the barrier of time, humans and monsters don't have to worry about longevity. Until one day the Four Fighting Gods took advantage of the weakening of the barrier of time on the island to invade."

The oldest half-demon girl among the half-demon children tells about the past here.

"In that battle, our people tried their best to resist the invasion of the Four Fighters, but most of them were still slaughtered. In order to resist the Four Fighters, the witch Zou Ji sealed their power with her life, and the Four Fighters were also killed. Forced to stop the slaughter, they need to use the island's roaring cauldron to burn the half-demons on the island to restore their strength."

Zheng Yichen commented: "So things like seals are still not reliable enough, it's best to get rid of them forever."

Although there are seals in the formations he learned, he is more inclined to kill in his studies.

"There is still the evil spirit of the Four Fighting Gods in the mist, and the matter has not been completely resolved. Can you take me to see the roaring cauldron?"

The oldest half-demon girl nodded immediately: "Of course, by the way, my name is Qian Cong."

The other half-demon children also introduced themselves, and then they began to lead the way. On the way, they could see the ruins left in the environment. There used to be people living there, but because the people who lived there had died long ago and lacked maintenance, they looked dilapidated.

In the depths of the forest, some fireflies surrounded them, and Kikyo held up a firefly and said, "Is this your kind?"

The fireflies here are like remnants of souls, the embers left after the half-demon was burned, existing in a form that is difficult to interfere with the outside world, and it is also the source of sadness and resentment in the fog on the island.

"...That's right." Qian Cong nodded silently.

Finally they came to the place where the cauldron of noise was, and the half-demon girl said, "This is the source of power for this island. Only with its existence can the barrier of time be maintained, and it is also an artifact coveted by many monsters."

"Well... I wrote it down." Zheng Yichen looked at this giant, and after writing it down, it might be useful in the future, while Kikyo took a look at Zheng Yichen.

Zheng Yichen immediately said: "If I draw the same one, it's not considered stealing, is it?"

"..." Then your ability is really capricious. Kikyo came to the entrance of the roaring cauldron. Looking at the mechanism here, this thing has been polluted by the power of monsters. She can purify it, but if she wants to purify it thoroughly, she still needs to purify it. Need to open this thing.

"How to open it?"

"Open it? I don't know." The half-demon boy said helplessly: "All the adults on the island have died long ago, and the witch Zouji has also died. Many information has not been preserved, but the Four Gods know how to open it. It's just that the kind of opening is for us to jump in as living sacrifices."

"In this case, do you know the appearance of Miko Souhime? It would be best to have a portrait."

"How could there be such a thing left behind?"

"Knowing that I can save her."

"...Let's look for it now!!" Hearing this, the half-demon children got excited immediately, and they ran away in all directions, ready to search for the ruins of the people who used to live in it. The priestess who guarded the island once Not much remains.

Kikyo took a look at Zheng Yichen: "Your ability—"

"It's easy to use, right, and so far no god of death has approached me, but I was nagged by King Yama in another world, but that's not what I was talking about."

Zheng Yichen groped around while talking, and put his palm on a mechanism next to it, but there was no response. He knew how this thing was opened, but it required a monster and a person to touch two different mechanisms respectively?

There are monsters on the human side, he can draw one for use, but since he wants to draw it, it's better to draw a more professional one.

Zheng Yichen touched this mechanism, trying to perceive the structure of this thing with his breath. The formation technique he learned is a large category. After learning it, he can master part of the enchantment technique, sealing technique, and props without a teacher. You can also try it out.

After all, the array technique can be regarded as a 'magic array', and the things made can become special props after the power of the array technique is engraved.

"It's a bit complicated, why don't I draw one directly." After trying to explore, Zheng Yichen chose to give up very simply.

This thing looks like it is made of stones, as long as there are enough and good quality stones, but the internal structure, that is, the power structure that maintains the operation of the rumbling cauldron, is currently unclear to him.

I wrote it down, but I wrote it down a little bit, but writing it down and actually doing it are not the same thing.

The brain knows but the hands don't, and the strength is not compatible.

Kikyo didn't say a word, he tried to purify this thing when Zheng Yichen was groping for the cauldron of roaring, but the efficiency of purifying from the outside was very low, and it took a little bit of penetration to get rid of the monster's power to pollute this thing Lose.

"We found it!!"

The sound of cheers came from a distance, and the twin half-demon boys ran over, holding a somewhat crude clay sculpture in their hands, followed by other half-demon children who ran a little slower.

"...This statue of yours was made last week, right?" Zheng Yichen looked at the statue speechlessly, and then at the half-demon children with slightly embarrassed expressions: "Aren't you afraid that I will draw something different?"

"Uh, you're very verbose... Cough, that's how it is. Mrs. Zuo Ji left behind a lot of things, but there are not many records about her appearance. Some of them were destroyed by the Four Fighting Gods. Fortunately, with their help, we Only then has Master Zuo Ji's appearance been restored."

Zheng Yichen looked at the mud stained in the hands of the half-monster children, and at the 'fireflies' flying over slowly, then shook his head: "It's really hard for you..."

Chapter 566 What a Bamboo Dragonfly

This is said to be a clay sculpture that was regarded as a compliment last week. Of course, it cannot be used. The quality of this thing is too hip, and it can't even meet the most basic painting standards.

"Just let them reproduce their appearance. If you want to play with mud, I can draw more interesting ones for you."

"We're too anxious." The half-demon boy curled his lips, and then looked at the fireflies flying loosely around: "I'll leave it to everyone."

"That... that's the only thing we can find." The half-demon girl named Qian Cong handed some clean papers to Zheng Yichen.

"Leave it to me." Zheng Yichen took the yellowed paper and glanced at the gathered fireflies. The fireflies formed a long-haired woman.

Of course, because of the color, more observations are needed. Zheng Yichen looked from the side, noted down the outline of the face, found a place to sit down, stroked the drawing paper with his palm, and the soft paper became hard. stand up.

This is another use of qi. When used in an attack, pulling out a piece of grass can be used as a hidden weapon.

Under the gaze of the half-demon child, the paintbrush in Zheng Yichen's hand slapped again on the wound on his arm, and the blood that flowed from the wound that was protected by him was stained by the paintbrush.

"Master Miko, is it okay for him to do that?" A half-demon girl looked at Zheng Yichen worriedly. When she saw Zheng Yichen painting with her own blood, she felt a little guilty. He obviously came to help them, but he had to bear the harm himself. ...

"It's okay, just wait for a while." Kikyo said softly, her attitude towards children has always been very good, and her words were much softer than when she spoke to Zheng Yichen.

"Actually, we can use our blood as well. We have a lot of people, and there is not much if no one shares it."

Zheng Yichen glanced at the half-demon boy who was talking: "You are not qualified now."

Two curious half-demon girls approached Zheng Yichen cautiously, and looked curiously at the gradually forming blood-colored portraits on the drawing paper. Their expressions were puzzled. The portraits were clearly drawn with blood, but when they looked at them, there was something extra in their minds. color.

This made them feel very miraculous. They wanted to ask Zheng Yichen why, but they were worried about disturbing Zheng Yichen.

"The outline is drawn, let's add a little more detail~"

"You... your details are a bit too much." Looking at the details added by Zheng Yichen, the half-demon boy couldn't help but say, because after Zheng Yichen finished adding the details, they looked at the woman in the painting as if they came to life The same, as if it will jump out of the painting in the next moment.

What are the details?

"I'm a painter of gods."

"Painting God...Big words..." The half-demon boy with a rebellious personality subconsciously wanted to reply, but seeing Zheng Yichen flicked the drawing paper, and after the woman in the painting disappeared, he widened his eyes in astonishment. eyes.

The bloody woman in the painting disappeared, but a woman appeared in the empty place beside her, and the body of the other party quickly changed from illusion to reality.

"Where am I...?" The black-haired woman who opened her eyes subconsciously released her spiritual power. She wanted to resist the flames inside the roaring cauldron. This is what her little soul has always been doing. .

But now that she regained her senses, she found that she was already beside the roaring cauldron, surrounded by a circle of excited half-demon children.

"It's true...really?" The half-demon boy opened his eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the witch Zouji who appeared here, and then at Zheng Yichen with a relaxed expression: "You are too powerful!"

"Is it really you? Master Zuo Ji?" Qian Cong looked at the woman in front of her with some hesitation, and she was even more worried that all this was fake.

The black-haired woman showed guilt: "Although I don't know what happened to make the dead me regain my body, I'm sorry, I failed to protect you well..."

After seeing the fireflies circling nearby, she realized again how bad the situation on Penglai Island was.

"That can be discussed later, can this thing be opened and purified first?" Zheng Yichen interrupted their reminiscence: "You should be in your prime now, right?"

Zuo Ji nodded lightly, this is also where she feels strange, she only has a broken soul left, and the remaining vitality is also very weak, it should not exist in the current form.

Not only that, but she can also feel that there is a "fading timer" in her own existence, ignoring that factor, she herself is the same as before, without any discomfort or incongruity.

"Then start?"

"Okay..." Zuo Ji, who still had a lot of doubts in her heart, nodded her head. She glanced at Kikyo for a while. This is a colleague. The pure spiritual power emanating from him is the reason why she is not vigilant towards Zheng Yichen.

As a priestess on the island, it is not difficult to open the cauldron of noise. When she opened it, she said: "In fact, as long as monsters and humans touch the mechanisms on both sides, the cauldron of noise can be opened directly."

Raging flames spewed out from the open roaring cauldron, and fiery breath burst out. Miko Souhime showed a puzzled look. She raised her hands, and the spewing flames separated to both sides.

Dots of light came out from the cauldron, and those lights wrapped a jade box, and the light did not dissipate in her hand. Zuo Ji looked at the light ball in her hand, and her expression became even weirder.

Now her own state is very complete, including the part of the soul, but the light cluster in her hand is also the soul that she retained after being thrown into the roaring cauldron, but her own soul is not incomplete, this part remains and is in a deep sleep state The soul does not need to fill itself, as if it is an extra part.

extra?Suppressing the doubts in her heart, she temporarily incorporated this part of the 'excess' soul into her own body. It was originally her own soul. It was easy to do so, but she could feel that this part of the soul had not changed.

Not 'counting' in that disappearing sense of existence means that even if she takes in this part of the soul that seems to be redundant now, after her current body disappears, this part of the soul will still be kept alone.

Hold yourself?This state is very subtle.

"Let's start together?" Souhime said to Kikyo, with the help of a powerful and pure priestess, it would be more efficient to purify the cauldron of noise.

"let's start."

Kikyo responded immediately, and the efficiency of the two witches' purification was very high. The most intuitive change was that the ominous feeling shrouded in Penglai Island quickly disappeared, and Zheng Yichen could feel that everything in the environment became clear. .

Dawn never came, but things on the island were completely settled... right?

Looking at the closed cauldron, Zouji the witch exhaled lightly: "That's it."

She looked at those happy half-demon children with a look of embarrassment on her face. She could feel that her existence was not long, and she would disappear after a while. Once she disappeared, the island would lose its guardian. This time it might be okay.

But after 50 years, the enchantment on the island has become weakened, and it is still possible to be invaded by monsters. Please another priestess to stay?It would be too selfish to leave the mission that one should have undertaken to someone unrelated. Please ask her to come and take care of Penglai Island in 50 years?

If it is in Penglai Island, because of the enchantment of time, human beings living here for 50 years will not change much.

But living in the outside world is different. After 50 years, it doesn’t matter if the priestess is alive or not. It is too difficult for others, even if it has been protected, what about the next 50 years?

"Are you worried about the safety of this island?" Kikyo asked.

Miko Souji nodded guiltily: "Penglai Island's enchantment will be weakened for a period of time every 50 years. Could you please come here to take care of it for a period of time at that time?"

Kikyo said without hesitation: "Yes."

She wouldn't choose to stay here, but it's fine to come and guard after 50 years when the barrier weakens, even though she might be very old by then.

"thank you all--"

"I have a better suggestion." Zheng Yichen, who was drawing with his head down, showed the picture he had drawn.

The half-demon boy couldn't help saying: "What an ugly old hag!"

The painting is still only bloody, but the magic of the painting allows the viewer to make up the relevant colors at a glance. This is an old witch, not a human being.

"She knows a technology that allows people to exist in another form, what do you think?"

With the unhesitating expression she had just shown from Kikyo, Zuo Ji said, "I agree."

It is imperative to assign the responsibility to others. Now there is a better way. She doesn't want to implicate the witches who have nothing to do with the mission of protecting Penglai Island.

"That's good." Zheng Yichen flicked the drawing paper in his hand, and the drawing disappeared, but nothing appeared next to it.

The half-demon children looked at Zheng Yichen suspiciously: "Is this... a malfunction? Is it too tired?"

"...No, it should be that the person concerned didn't sleep. What is the old man doing running around without sleeping in the middle of the night?" Zheng Yichen shook his head, and re-painted a painting of the ghost girl Litao: "Use it after dawn."

"It's incomprehensible." The half-monster children looked at Zheng Yichen's serious face, but felt that they didn't understand it.

But the witch Zou Ji was drawn alive by Zheng Yichen, so he should be whatever he says.
