Chapter 500 Gift
The blood-colored claws are sharp and long, piercing through the chest, like stubborn and unyielding branches protruding from the cracks in the stone. Each section is absorbing red nutrients, seeping into the finger joints.
The fingers that absorbed the nutrients moved forward by nearly a decimeter like real branches, as if the process of growing from a young child into a towering tree was accelerated. If placed elsewhere, it would be an inspirational record of a tree.
Unfortunately, the real reality has nothing to do with this prosperous scene, but instead elevates the weirdness to the extreme.
The soft sound of breaking flesh made everyone in the appraisal room stop as if pressing the pause button. There was an inexplicable attraction that focused the eyes of both people and ghosts on Linda's blood-stained fingers. Even Yu Xing At this moment, he couldn't help but look over. He stared at this scene blankly. Linda's face became no longer important at this moment, and on that hand, he could even see a drop of blood rolling off the nail. Clearly.
“Really, my hands are painting hands, but you insist on forcing me to do such rude things.” Linda's ethereal voice followed the invisible branches and wrapped densely.
The dim environment brought in a gust of cold wind. These two-meter-tall humanoid creatures suddenly lost their expressions. They still maintained fighting movements, but their faces were numb and stiff, as if they had lost their souls.
Yu Xing felt his heart skip a beat suddenly, and a shiver rose from his spine to Tianling Gai. He wanted to turn his head to see how Zhao Yijiu was doing, but found that he could not take his eyes away from Linda's hand.
At the same time, his emotions were also strangely suppressed. At this moment, he seemed to have no desire for anything, and thought it was normal to maintain this situation forever.
But another slit in consciousness seemed to be keeping him awake, constantly warning him to resist quickly and not to sink.
Hurry up and resist, don't sink.
Yu Xing's fingers moved. He calmed down and tried to amplify the consciousness that alerted him until it completely overshadowed the numbness and emotionless state. There were waves of tiny voices in his ears. Something was growing, intertwining, branches and leaves rubbing against each other...but he knew that these sounds did not exist.
Even if it exists, it must have crossed time and space, and reached his ears here and now from a distant unknown place.
There was a sharp pain in his finger, and Yu Xing became more awake again. He expressionlessly retracted the nail that had been stabbed into the fingertip under his control. The amplified pain made the pain rise to the same level as a hammer crushing his finger into mud. Then, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he suddenly understood something.
Coincidences in the world are nothing more than another kind of necessity.
what is this?
is the hint he is bound to get.
He can already control his body, not just his sight, but also his thoughts. He reached out and touched a glass on the coffee table in front of the sofa, and then—
“Peng!”
Broken glass splashed on the ground, making a crisp sound. In the silence at this time, it was like a heavy hammer that struck the soul.
Linda looked at Yu Xing with a little surprise, but she didn't take any action in response. She just curled her lips and took her hand back.
The body without her support fell limply to the ground. Linda threw the broken heart next to his body like garbage. A row of teeth on his neck fell out, and he was too dead to die.
Everyone and the ghosts shuddered, came to their senses, and were surprised by what they had just thought.
They are all sure that if there is no sound stimulation like breaking a glass, they may really stop here forever and let their thoughts go.
After regaining consciousness, the ghosts who were fighting just now were beaten twice more due to their inertia of behavior. Not only the painters and staff, but also the viewers who rushed into the appraisal room and the instigators who were mixed in looked surprised.
"what happened?"
“Linda! What are you doing!”
“You traitor, are you a spy among us!?”
"Fuck..." Yun Si touched the cold sweat on his forehead and sighed in fear, "Just now I almost felt like a dead prey that shouldn't be moved. Fortunately, I woke up..."
After a pause, he added: "It's scary to think about it carefully."
Yu Xing: “…”
He turned around to pay attention to Zhao Yijiu's condition, and found that the man was not bad, but he had an awkward face and disliked Linda very much.
Yu Xing conveyed a question mark with his eyes. Zhao Yijiu pursed his lips and gave a "It doesn't matter" look in return.
Ning Feng and the chess player looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Faced with the different reactions of everyone and ghosts, Linda smiled: "What a spy, I'm just annoyed. The slapstick will affect my mood."
She walked a few steps swaying and pointed at the mess on the ground: "Did you see it? It's a mess in the fine art appraisal room. I came here to participate in the art exhibition, and this art exhibition has a publicity effect for me. , No one can mess it up, I am going to participate in the auction, how important is the price. "
The fat man shouted at the top of his lungs: "But you killed people from our art museum!"
"Oh, really? It was too dark to see clearly." Linda smiled, but there was no apology in her words.
What else did the fat man want to say? After seeing Linda's eyes, he suddenly realized that Linda had not said anything, but she had long been very dissatisfied with the museum's ability to respond.
The art exhibition has already begun, but she still needs help from outsiders to find out the fakes mixed in. This may have... filled her with anger.
Being late today is also a way to express dissatisfaction.
Linda saw the fat man take the initiative to shut up, and let out a cold snort without emotion, and then raised her voice: "My painting exhibition does not need shabby rats."
After breaking away from the state of silence just now, her voice returned to normal. It no longer had that ethereal meaning, and her words were more harsh.
Several ghosts that broke into the painting appraisal room took a few steps back. Their intuition told them that this painter was different from others, and they could not face it directly—a terrifying existence just like the person in charge.
“Why don't you hurry up and get out?” Clodier was trembling, but he could still feel Linda's impatience. He had the courage to yell at the ghosts to prevent them from standing here any longer. He was even very scared, because during the painting appraisal process, he and Linda were not very polite when talking to each other, and even had a dispute because of different ideas. But at that time, how did he know that Linda's strength was so terrifying, and it was not the same as anyone else's? One level.
The guys who broke in heard it and ran back without hesitation. Some of them came here specifically to encourage others to destroy this art exhibition. Now they find that there is such a terrifying monster, and it is impossible for the art exhibition to be in accordance with the rules. If their plans are ruined, there will be no reason to stay here.
And several other viewers who were completely used as guns were even more regretful. At this time, they realized that for some reason, they had gone from being just a little dissatisfied with the fakes hidden in the exhibition to rushing into the third floor. Troublemaker.
But they ran very fast, but the mistakes they had already made would not change. Linda's voice was filled with coolness: "Let's go? Shouldn't you pay the price?"
The red wooden door that was kicked open automatically without wind, and slammed shut with a loud bang, trapping everyone in this room. Xueyuan's expression became tense, and even Killer No. 37 tensed up.
Yu Xing was relatively calm, because he saw no malice in the look Linda gave him just now. He could only say that it might be because they not only did not do anything detrimental to the exhibition, nor did they neglect their duties, but instead accepted the instructions from the person in charge. Commissioned and maintained this exhibition, Linda didn't want to hurt them.
This is a... relatively reasonable ghost.
But being reasonable is just being reasonable to them. Those who break in to find trouble...have already set the outcome of death.
Linda couldn't be seen moving. Those things suddenly exploded, exploding the room with blood mist and broken pieces of meat. Fortunately, when they exploded, these ghostly objects were located close to the door and did not directly affect the short man's outside. those.
Yu Xing, however, vaguely heard the rustling sound at the same time as those things exploded. He stared at Linda with his peripheral vision and wrote down the outline of this woman.
After that, the world will be pure.
The drop of a pin could be heard in the art appreciation room. Everyone was either looking at Linda, or firmly not looking at Linda, but their expressions were more or less nervous.
Linda looked around. Except for the outsiders, she had no interest in this group of cowards at all. So she picked the person present who interested her the most and asked, "Will anyone come in now?"
The person she picked was Yu Xing. Yu Xing looked directly at her and analyzed: "With the ability of the person in charge, letting these few escape should be the limit. If anyone else can come up, I reasonably suspect that it is the person in charge." Take the initiative, but generally speaking, the chance of someone else coming in is low. "
The voice that was neither humble nor arrogant sounded steadily in the dark room, and at the same time, there was the smell of blood.
The minced meat and blood gave off an unpleasant fishy smell. Unlike the newly dead people, the corpses of the ghosts seemed to have been rotting for many years. They were stinky and disgusting.
The reason why I can stay here is probably because of the desire to survive—the desire to survive in all aspects.
"Really? That's good...I'm waiting for the person in charge to give me an explanation for his unfavorable preparations. Before that, during such a boring time, I want to have a chat with you." Linda looked really interested in Yu Xing She was very interested, and there was even some inquiry in her eyes. She walked over slowly, and the other people sitting on the sofa stood up with dignity and tacit understanding, and moved to the side of the round table.
The same is true for Zhao Yijiu. He can guess that Yu Xing will probably get some benefits from Linda.
At this moment, everything became empty. Yu Xing curled his lips and was not surprised. He stood up politely and extended his hand to Linda: "Please sit down?"
He pointed to the position opposite him to Linda, but Linda sat down next to him very casually and raised her eyes: "Get closer so you can talk, and stop standing."
Yu Xing didn't care about this. He just thought it was strange that in such a quiet room, he and Linda were the only ones talking, while the others stood behind and watched.
But as long as he is not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed. After he sat down, he took the initiative to ask: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
This unceremonious and fearless tone made all the experiencers feel very admired - well, he is a ruthless person!
That's great, we need ruthless people at this time!
Those of them who are not ruthless can just watch the show from behind!
Hand-operated dog head.
"Two aspects. First, I want to talk to you...how did you break the glass just now?" Linda's long hair was draped over her shoulders, and her gauze hat covered the fair skin from her neck to her face. , there was no questioning or testing, as if she really just had some doubts.
“My hand slipped.” Yu Xing said.
"Huh?" Linda did not expect that he would give such an answer, "Are you trying to deal with me?"
Yu Xing retorted seriously: "No, I'm just looking for an excuse."
"Don't worry about how scary I think it is. Even if you were not awake at the time, the person in charge will still wake you up when he comes back. I just hope to maintain a quiet and less troublesome environment." Linda was a little regretful. , "I am a person with a good temper."
Everyone's definition of good temper is really completely different... The people and ghosts behind are thinking in their hearts.
"Forget it, I won't ask this question. You must have your own reasons why you are not affected...but we are destined. Your painting skills are very high. I can understand this from your conversation. I think, We must have a chance to cooperate in painting." Linda took out two things from the folds of her skirt and handed them directly to Yu Xing, "I like people who understand art, especially newcomers... I'll give you two. A gift."
Yu Xing squinted and identified two small things. One was a brown ring with an unknown material, which seemed to be a suitable size to fit on the index finger, and the other was several pieces of paper tied together with rubber bands.
"This is an admission ticket." Linda introduced the pieces of paper first. "It's not a cheap admission ticket for this messy art exhibition, but for an auction. You should have heard me mention the auction just now. In five days, Magic Eye Auction House will hold a treasure auction, and one of my paintings will be one of them... But I think your painting may also be eligible to be included in this auction."
"It's hard to get a ticket for this auction. Every ticket means a lot of money. I will give you three tickets. I hope you can bring your friends to participate, whether as the owner of the auction items or simply Of course, I personally hope it is the former. If you intend to send your painting to the auction, I can help you contact the auction house in advance. "
The experiencers at the back breathed a little more quickly, and every word Linda said was a copy of the auction house! Large copy! Intense danger and high rewards!
Yu Xing smiled and accepted the gift. For him, this was indeed what he wanted. What's more, if the painting can be auctioned, he should not have to worry about the rent for a long time.
“How can I contact you if I want to?”
Ms. Linda was not surprised at all by Yu Xing's refusal. She shook the ring: "Wear it, you can contact me when you are alone - if I am free, I will give you You respond."
Yu Xing looked at the ring of unknown material and thought, I already have a communication device. Isn't this better prepared?
He smiled with an unknown meaning in his heart, but on the surface he accepted the two gifts very happily.
