A gallery is a place where art works are collected, displayed or sold. In the 16th century, in the West, collected art works were displayed in the cloisters of mansions. This was the origin of galleries. Later, similar settings were often found in noble residences.
What no one could have imagined is that there is such a gallery hidden in the dark and unvisited underground in the small town of Sakurai City.
In addition to the owner of the gallery, perhaps Liangfeng, Kathleen and many ghosts are the first guests of this gallery.
Liangfeng was also someone who had seen a lot of disgusting things. Even if he cut open a corpse himself, his expression would not change. But when he saw the paintings reflected in the flashlight light, he still had to react for more than ten seconds before he came back to his senses. Come.
Looking at the paintings and works of art hanging on the corridor, Liangfeng couldn't find words to comment for a while, because the works were no longer within the scope of being commented on.
Broken limbs, flesh, organs, and blood, these works seem to use the simplest and most direct brushstrokes to depict blasphemous images of life. Liangfeng only saw the shocking extreme morbidity and the spiritual stench that violated human ethics.
[Searcher] was opened unknowingly.
It seems that these works cannot be seen directly with the naked eye.
The raw material of this work, if Liangfeng understands it correctly, is "people"!
Stepping lightly, he came to a painting, and the light of his flashlight shone on the painting.
Human bones serve as the frame, human skin serves as the paper, blood serves as the watercolor, and organs serve as decoration.
However, the things drawn with these paintings are not human at all, and you can't even tell what kind of creature they are. It's like a painting made by violently smashing a whole person into pieces. There is no logic or structure, but it is comparable to that of a child. The graffiti painting method makes every inch of skin appear lifelike.
It is said that it is difficult to paint the skin of a person but the bones, but the works here not only make the internal organs clearly visible, but also seem to paint the soul - a soul experiencing endless pain.
Under the photo frame, there is a label.
[Artist; "Third Eye Impression"]
Coming to another work, there is also a label below.
[Artist: "Fourth Eye Impression"]
[Artist: "Fifth Eye Impression"]
[Artist: "Impression of the Sixth Eye"]
【……】
"Artist." Liangfeng muttered the name, and then took out a colorful baseball bat.
If it is the artist from the Night Talk Organization, the artist's residual soul has been absorbed by the colorful baseball bat.
At the same time, when fighting the artist, the expression of the artist's power also emerged from Liangfeng's memory.
That's it - eyes!
The artist's eyes, which are covered with scars all over his body, can each launch invisible attacks, and the artist's spirit is indeed not very good.
Could it be that every painting here comes from the artist’s eyes?
"If it is really an artist from the Night Talk Organization, then this is where the artist hides? No, maybe it's not that simple."
A single artist does not need to build such a large tunnel maze underground.
The names of these paintings started from "Impression of the Third Eye", perhaps because the artist himself originally had two eyes.
Just as Liangfeng was looking at these paintings, there was a sudden movement in the body bag.
After opening the zipper, the human skin paper floated out from the body bag, as if attracted by something, and floated deep into the gallery.
Liangfeng saw this and followed him.
Kathleen squatted on Liangfeng's shoulders, feeling a little disgusted with the paintings on both sides.
Such paintings are so ugly that they are not as good as the paintings in the gallery in the castle. But now, if she returns to the castle, she will definitely fill the gallery with photos of the cool breeze!
My own bedroom should also be covered with stickers, hey hey hey, suck it up~
…
The human skin paper floats in the gallery, drifting deeper into the gallery.
Liangfeng flashed a flashlight and followed with Kathleen and the ghosts.
Even the paper-pricked face poked its head out of the body bag, wondering what the human-skinned face was going to do.
On both sides of the gallery are naturally paintings that test one's bottom line.
But as long as the bottom line is low enough, it will never withstand the test.
I have personally traveled through time and experienced the cool breeze of studying for two years. After being prepared, I will naturally not be affected by these paintings.
Fortunately, there is no strange smell here except for some decaying smell and the difficulty in air circulation, which makes the air become sedimentary.
Each painting seems to have undergone special treatment and does not rot or stink.
Liangfeng would be stunned for more than ten seconds at first, just because he was not prepared.
Just like the first time between a couple, it is an extraordinary stimulation, and it may even reach the threshold faster because it is difficult to hold back. But when they have experienced each other more and become familiar with each other, the passion will gradually fade away and become duller.
Apart from instinctive feelings, there are few blessings from other emotions.
Unless you change the position, the play will be more exciting.
But after the dullness, the only thing to consider is life, and life is better to be duller.
The gallery is not too long.
Soon, the cool breeze followed the human skin to the end of the gallery.
At the end of the gallery, there is a larger space. In the center of the space, there is an object covered with cloth. Judging from the outline, this looks like a rectangular painting, but the size of this painting is surprisingly large.
The human skin stopped in front of the cloth.
Liangfeng stepped forward, briefly observed, and after confirming that there was no danger, he raised his hand and pulled off the cloth covering the items.
Wow——
The long cloth fell to the ground, kicking up a mere dust.
As for Liangfeng and Kathleen, their eyes were attracted to the painting behind the cloth.
The light of the flashlight shines on the painting, and the cool breeze retreats, opening a distance so that the light of the flashlight can illuminate the entire painting.
After seeing the entire painting clearly, Liangfeng's pupils narrowed.
This painting is different from the previous works where I don’t know what they are painting. This painting paints a complete and clear image, but it is more frightening.
The evil spirits are in chaos, and human corpses are scattered everywhere.
The whole painting is three-dimensional. On the ancient yellow canvas, flesh and blood are the main body of the painting. A city painted with blood appears on the canvas. The flesh and blood outline the appearance of evil spirits, and the bones are glued together to look like corpses. Such a painting depicts the "Carnival of Ghosts"!
Approaching this painting, the flesh and blood stacked on the painting seem to be beating.
The image of the evil spirit seemed to be laughing wildly, sticking out its long tongue and licking the skull held in its claws, as if to suck out the marrow from the bones.
However, when I blinked and looked at the painting again, the painting was still still.
The human skin paper floated around Liangfeng, attracting Liangfeng's attention, and then floated to the corner of the painting. Outside the city, various strange red lines are painted around the canvas, which look like eyes.
When Liangfeng looked at it, he found that one corner of the canvas was empty.
And the empty part is the same size as the human skin paper under normal circumstances.
Liangfeng suddenly remembered that the original appearance of the human skin paper was not the various notebooks and the pictures of female celebrities, but... it had red lines similar to eyes.
The human skin paper also changed back to its original form, and the lines on the human skin paper just connected with the lines on the drawing paper.
“Did human skin paper come from here?!”
However, this painting and the paper on which it is painted do not seem to be weird.
As for what the situation was, Human Skin Paper didn't know. Human Skin Paper just sensed a connection between itself and the painting.
Standing in front of the painting, Liangfeng looked at the painting and thought about the connection between the human skin paper and the painting.
However, the more he looked at the painting, the more Liangfeng felt that the painting looked familiar.
What looks familiar?
Not an evil spirit.
Not flesh and blood.
Not bones.
It's...this city!
"This is Sakurai City!"
When Liangfeng was a child, he compared the map of Sakurai City and saw the outline of Sakurai City.
And the outline of the city in this painting is exactly the same as Sakurai City!
Then Liangfeng looked at several locations in his memory.
The location of his home outlines a residential area.
The location of the boys' high school is the school, which corresponds to the girls' high school on the other side of the city.
This is indeed Sakurai City!
