The screen has five sides and five groups of paintings.
The first painting on the left shows an evil spirit drawing on a piece of human skin, outlining some vague appearance.
Then, the second painting shows the evil spirit wearing human skin, and it looks like——
Lu Bai suddenly turned around and looked at the potbellied shopkeeper at the counter.
The shopkeeper noticed Lu Bai's gaze, raised his head and smiled at Lu Bai, not forgetting to say "hum".
Lu Bai withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the screen.
The third picture on the screen shows several evil spirits wearing human skins, cheering around a pot of skinned human flesh boiling in the pot. Through the door behind them, someone is pushing in - it looks quite similar.
The merchants and guides they saw when they came in.
The difference is that the painting is sketched in simple strokes, and the appearance cannot be clearly seen, and the number of people is inconsistent with the caravan in the house now.
Lu Bai narrowed his eyes and felt something was wrong. While thinking to himself, he continued to look at the next two pictures.
In the fourth picture, evil spirits are enjoying a feast of human flesh, and there are several more evil spirits.
As for the people who come in, they are not in the painting.
By the fifth picture, the inn returned to normal.
The shopkeeper and the waiter were taking care of the customers normally, and the customers were drinking, chatting and laughing. They couldn't see the horror of the evil spirits and cannibalism at all.
But the paradox is that the number of people in the painting is now the same as the merchant's team.
Lu Bai's back felt cold. Not to mention whether the content in the painting was true or false, what was the point of putting it here for them to see?
If this painting is real, then all the people in the house now are evil spirits?
Pig demon too?
Lu Bai was puzzled and glanced at Gu Qinghuan.
Gu Qinghuan had already seen the painting on the screen. She lowered her voice and said: "This evil ghost is painted skin. There is no word 'human' on the chest of the human skin in the painting. It is said that that is their vital point."
As for who was the painter in this inn, Gu Qinghuan couldn't figure it out. The paintings on the screen were too confusing.
"Master, what should we do now?" Lu Bai's disciples also discovered the strangeness of this painting.
After Lu Bai glanced around, he whispered: "Stay unchanged to cope with all changes."
However, when the waiter was serving the dishes, Lu Bai still asked, "Waiter, what is painted on this screen?"
"The painting on the screen?" The waiter looked up and said in surprise: "Hey! When did there be a painting on the screen? Shopkeeper, come and take a look."
The pot-bellied shopkeeper squeezed his way from behind the counter, followed by the other waiters, "What painting?"
Businessmen and guides who were drinking were also attracted.
They gathered in front of the screen.
The shopkeeper was shocked when he saw it, "Who, who painted on the screen?"
He waved to the waiter to move the screen down quickly.
"Wait a minute!" The merchants looked at the shopkeeper and waiter warily, "The content of this painting is very mysterious."
Their guard held the handle of the knife and looked at the shopkeeper and waiter warily, "Tell me, are you evil ghosts?"
The shopkeeper and the waiters felt insulted and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? We are monsters! You are the ghosts!"
The businessmen smiled disdainfully and said, "The painting is very clear. You were monsters before, but now you are ghosts with painted skins."
"Nonsense!" The shopkeeper and the waiters felt aggrieved.
Lu Bai led the people to sit there without moving. He tasted the meat and vegetables brought by the waiter and suggested: "If you are a painted-skinned devil, take off your clothes and see if there are any characters on it."
?”
The businessmen immediately agreed, "Yes, take off your clothes!"
The fat shopkeeper and the waiters took it off without thinking.
The waiters quickly took off their clothes and said, "Take a good look to see if there are any. I tell you, you will all be monsters until death -"
The waiters were half finished talking, but when they saw the businessman opposite was frightened, they hurriedly lowered their heads and saw the word "人" on their chests.
The shopkeeper was fat and took off his clothes slowly. At this time, he took off half of his clothes but didn't dare to take them off anymore.
"This, how is this possible!" The shopkeeper was extremely surprised and couldn't believe it.
"And you said you are not evil spirits!" The merchants shouted loudly, and all drew out their weapons to greet the waiters and fat shopkeepers. Lu Bai's Jin Yiwei and disciples also drew out their weapons and stared at them warily.
With the waiter and the shopkeeper.
"Stop!" Lu Bai shouted at them.
He stood up and said with great certainty: "These waiters and shopkeepers are not evil spirits."
The businessmen didn't believe it and looked at him suspiciously, "How do you know?"
"Because the mutton dish they make is very delicious." Lu Bai said, "It takes only a few years to make this dish."
When Lu Bai was in Zhongshan Valley, he visited both the Pig Demon Restaurant and the Sheep Demon Restaurant.
The Pig Demon Restaurant at that time put a lot of effort into making lamb dishes, and the cooking was indeed pretty good. The mutton dishes at this inn were almost the same as those at the Pig Demon Restaurant in Zhongshan Valley. Based on this,
Lu Bai felt that the shopkeeper and the waiter were not painters.
"Huh, just because the food is delicious?" The businessmen didn't believe it.
They pointed to the word "人" on the waiter's body and asked, "What's the explanation for this? If you are not evil spirits, do you dare to let us prick you?"
Obviously, they also know that the character "人" is the weakness of the painted-skinned devil.
"How dare you!" the shopkeeper said angrily.
Even if he wasn't a painter, he would still die if he was stabbed in the chest with a sword.
"Humph, in that case——"
The leader of the merchants smiled viciously and was about to speak when he was interrupted by a waiter, "The people coming in from behind in this painting are you, but there is one more person in the painting than you are now -"
The waiter stared at them, "Although we pig demons are stupid, we are not easily killed by evil spirits. I think there are ghosts among you, and you are deliberately using this painting to frame us!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes lit up, "Yes, this painting must be an extra one on the painting. The person who can't see it now is responsible for it. I think you are the evil ones!"
"Nonsense!"
The leader of the merchants was furious and took off his clothes to prove his innocence, "Do you see the word '人' on our bodies?"
Lu Bai glanced at it, um, there was someone's handwriting on him.
"Okay, you are calling for a thief!" the shopkeeper said angrily.
"This, this -" the business leader lost confidence, "What's going on?"
The merchants and guards behind them also quickly took off their clothes and saw that they also had the word "人" on them.
"Huh, what else do you have to say now?" the fat shopkeeper asked angrily.
He shook his hands and said, "If you dare to slander us monsters, I will make you look good today!"
Then, with a tearing sound, the fat shopkeeper's clothes burst into pieces and turned into pieces of flying butterflies. As if he was released from the restraints, he transformed into a tall, ugly man with the top of his head reaching to the roof, Liu Zhe drooling, and ears as big as fans.
Pig demon.
This look is still very scary.
The merchants subconsciously took a step back and tightened their weapons, as the war was about to break out.
"Wait a minute!" the leader suddenly said, "You have marks on your body, and so do we. Are we going to be tricked by others?"
"You are the one who is playing tricks on us!" The pig demon's words echoed, and he waved his hand to smash the leader and the others into pieces.
"them!"
The merchants pointed at Lu Bai and said, "The painting they found was not seen at all when we came in!"
Even though the pig demon's head was as big as a melon seed kernel, he still felt that the merchant was right.
They all turned their heads and looked at Lu Bai, "You are the one causing trouble!"
"Why isn't this painting causing trouble?" Lu Bai asked back.
He put down his chopsticks after taking a bite of the food, "It all started with this group of paintings on the screen, so the weirdness lies in this painting. You don't have to think about checking my chest, there must be the word '人' on it."
"How do you know?" the merchants and the pig demon asked together.
"Because we are not in the inn." Lu Bai said.
"What!" The pig demon was stunned.
He looked around, "If it's not in the inn, where is it?"
Lu Bai didn't answer, but asked, "Is the waiter hanging the lantern outside from your inn?"
The pig demon looked back and said, "My people are all here, who are the waiters hanging lanterns?"
