As the train completely entered the narrow tunnel, the surrounding light dimmed in the blink of an eye, and no more light could be seen.
"The train has entered the tunnel."
Gu Li, who was sitting against the car door and recalling what had happened in the past few days, slowly stood up and turned on the flashlight hanging on his shoulder, illuminating the rusty car door in front of him.
"I don't know what will happen today."
Today, Gu Li is still feeling heavy.
The tunnel is a signal, representing the beginning of a new day.
However, every day that came made him feel extremely tortured.
Because the experience of the past few days is enough to know that there is a ghost in every carriage of this train.
In this hellish place, anything can be encountered and anything can happen.
Once you are targeted by ghosts, horrific supernatural attacks will come.
However, even if he knew that there was a ghost ahead, even if his condition was getting worse and worse, and his body was being further eroded by the ghost's shadow puppets, there were still vague signs of the Folding Ghost losing control.
I still have to bite the bullet and open the door and go in.
This is the task requirement of the ghost photo studio, and it is also the rules of the train itself.
If you want to get to the front of the train, you must find a way to pass through the carriages one by one.
At this moment.
Gu Li, who had been staying outside the door, first leaned over and listened to what was going on inside.
The experience of the past few days has made him afraid to open the door at will.
However, he didn't hear any sound inside. It was eerily quiet and couldn't hear any movement.
But Gu Li knew very well that in this carriage, which must be haunted, the quieter it was, the more dangerous it was.
Taking a deep breath, he prepared himself and slowly pushed open the car door that he had been unable to open until just now.
With some vigilance, he pushed the car door open a little.
The light of the flashlight then shone in, and his eyes looked inside the car.
"Um?"
What made Gu Li's expression change was that although this carriage was still old, with a dark interior and a lingering musty smell, the layout of this carriage was completely different from the layout of the carriages he had seen a few times before.
There is no room like a box in this carriage, and no door can be seen. It is as if the box design has been removed in this carriage, so the whole carriage looks very spacious. There is no such thing as a room with only
The narrow feeling of a corridor for people to walk.
However, this seemingly very spacious carriage is not empty of anything.
There seemed to be something placed in the middle of the carriage.
It looks like a long table, very much like a European table.
There is a layer of dusty carpet under the table, and five chairs are placed next to it. The placement of these five chairs also follows a certain rule. The left and right are symmetrical, and the extra chair is placed on the table.
The front seems to be reserved for the owner to sit.
The chair is also made of European solid wood, and the color is a bit brown. However, because no one has cleaned it for a long time, the original luster of the chair can no longer be seen, and a thick layer of dust has accumulated.
"This is a dining table."
After looking carefully, Gu Li was sure that the long table was a dining table, because he saw a white cloth and five plates on the table, with silver knives and forks placed on the plates.
However, there was no food on the plate, but it was empty and even covered with a layer of dust.
The white cloth covering the table could also be seen to have mold spots, exuding a rotten musty smell, making the entire dining table look a little dirty.
"But how could there be a dining table in this place, and who would come to dine here?"
Gu Li's eyes moved slightly, looking at the dining table placed in the center of the carriage, but he felt uneasy in his heart.
Still, he went in.
There is no way, there is no choice between advancing or retreating in this place.
Unless he dares to jump directly into this dark tunnel.
But who dares to jump out of the car in this supernatural place?
The so-called tunnel is just an illusion caused by supernatural beings. Who knows what this tunnel really looks like.
No one knows what's strange inside the tunnel.
But the moment Gu Li opened the door and walked in.
"Zizzi——!"
The lights suddenly turned on in the dark room, as if the power supply was suddenly turned on.
A crystal lamp that happened to be installed on the ceiling and facing the dining table lit up.
The light of the crystal lamp was a bright yellow color, which was a bit dazzling. It was not like the light that a supernatural event should have, and it instantly illuminated the situation inside the carriage.
But that's when the lights came on.
Astonishing changes occurred.
Under the bright lights, the car that was filled with a decaying atmosphere suddenly became completely new.
The dust on the floor and carpet was swept away, and the mildew spots on the white table cloth also disappeared, becoming clean and white. The cutlery seemed to have been cleaned just now, and the silver tableware shone under the light.
Some luster.
Even the chairs next to the dining table are brand new, and there is no dust to be seen.
It was as if time had gone backwards, bringing everything in this carriage back to a moment in the past, back to the moment when the dining table was just placed here.
Everything has become clean and tidy, not at all the rotten and gloomy look it had before.
"How can this be?"
Gu Li only felt that his vision seemed to become blurred as the lights turned on.
But just for a moment.
An incomprehensible phenomenon appeared before our eyes.
What surprised him the most was the dining table.
Because it was on this dining table that was as new as ever. Although there was still no food on the plate, a dinner plate suddenly appeared in the middle of the dining table.
The plate was covered with a lid, making it impossible to determine what was on the plate.
But Gu Li was very sure that what was placed here was not food.
Because he had already vaguely smelled the smell of corpses.
This smell didn't exist before. It only appeared after the lights came on and a huge change took place inside the carriage.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Is there part of the corpse in the dinner plate?"
Gu Li, who had made a guess, couldn't care so much now.
There was neither time nor information for him to figure out the cause of the drastic change.
He just wanted to put the remaining severed limbs together first.
There was a severed limb hidden in each carriage, which he determined after three days of investigation.
So this carriage is no exception. The severed limbs that are being stored in this carriage are probably on the dinner plate.
immediately.
Gu Li walked over with a wary look on his face and walked from the car door to the dining table.
He just stopped after taking a few steps.
Because he discovered that apart from the dinner plate that suddenly appeared on the dining table, there was a painting placed on the wall on the right side of the carriage at some point.
Gu Li can guarantee that there was absolutely no such painting in the carriage at the beginning.
This painting, like the dinner plate placed on the dining table, both appear after the lights are turned on.
This is an oil painting that looks very real. I just don’t know if it’s because the oil painting has been left here for too long. The oil painting that has not been maintained has faded a little, and there are even signs of cracking in some places, making the whole painting look like
Somewhat blurry.
It was such an oil painting that suddenly appeared that made Gu Li stop and look over subconsciously.
However, after seeing the scene in the picture clearly, his eyes suddenly shrank, and the matter of walking to the dining table to check the plates was completely forgotten.
Because the content in the oil painting seems to be based on this carriage.
The person who painted this painting seemed to have finished the oil painting on the left side of the carriage and then hung it on the wall on the right side of the carriage.
The lights in the picture are bright, and a brand new dining table is located in the center of the picture, as if everything is created around this dining table.
However, what is different from this moment is that there are people sitting next to the dining table in the painting.
correct.
There is one person sitting on each of the five chairs next to the dining table.
These five people were sitting around the dining table, both men and women. Their clothes were very similar to the formal attire worn by European aristocrats in the early 20th century.
However, because the person who painted this painting painted from the left side of the carriage, there was a big problem with this oil painting.
That is, if you paint from this angle, the people sitting on the left side of the dining table will block the people sitting on the right side of the dining table, and the people sitting on the left side of the dining table will only have a back figure in the painting, and the faces of these people cannot be seen at all.
Just like the scene in the oil painting at this moment.
Gu Li couldn't see what the two figures sitting on the left side of the dining table looked like, with their backs to him.
Moreover, these two people with their backs to them also blocked the two people sitting on the right side of the dining table.
Only the person sitting in the main seat can show his face in such an oil painting, and only half of his face is exposed.
However, I don’t know if the oil painting is not well maintained. The paint depicting this person is somewhat chipped, making the person sitting in the main seat a bit blurry and distorted in the oil painting, making it impossible to see clearly.
However, through the luxurious clothes on his body, Gu Li could still vaguely identify that this person should be a man, and there seemed to be a strange smile of unknown meaning hanging on the corner of his mouth.
"Did this happen in the carriage before? Someone drew the scene of the dinner party here?"
This is what Gu Li guessed at the first time.
But he quickly rejected this conjecture.
Because if you continue to look carefully, you will find that there is something very wrong with the five people sitting at the dining table in the oil painting.
The five people sitting at the dining table didn't look like they were dining at all. Instead, they all sat upright on their chairs, their postures as stiff as posed corpses, and their skin color was so pale that they looked almost alive.
People are more like five ghosts sitting stiffly on chairs.
Moreover, there was no food on the table.
Suddenly.
Gu Li, who was concentrating on observing the oil painting, was searching for food on the dining table, and found that although there was no food on the dining table in the oil painting, there seemed to be something on the dining table.
It was a dinner plate with a lid.
It is exactly the same as the dinner plate placed on the dining table at this moment.
This thing is placed in the middle of the dining table, but it is mostly covered by the two people sitting next to the dining table. If you don't look carefully, you can't see this thing at all.
Gu Li moved closer to take a look.
"No, no, this is..."
Suddenly, his expression changed.
If he had just seen the same dinner plate in the carriage in the oil painting, Gu Li obviously wouldn't be so surprised.
What made him most uneasy, even horrified, was that he found that there was also an oil painting hanging on the wall depicted in this oil painting.
This new oil painting hangs behind the two people on the right side of the dining table.
Obviously, this is a picture within a picture.
The picture-in-picture certainly looks much smaller than the oil painting hanging in the carriage, and the details are not as clear as the oil painting itself. It can only be barely seen that the picture-in-picture seems to be a replica of the oil painting.
It's a bit like copying the content of the oil painting and incorporating it into this picture-within-a-picture.
In this picture-within-a-picture, you can see the same brand-new tables and chairs, bright lights, and a covered dinner plate on the table without food.
Even the carpet is still the same style and the same color.
There were also five people sitting at the dining table.
But it was this picture-in-picture copying of the oil painting that made Gu Li break out in cold sweat.
An extreme fear surged out of his heart and instantly enveloped his whole body.
Because he discovered that in addition to copying the contents of the oil painting, the painting within the painting actually included an extra person.
This man was standing next to the dining table, a little close to the car door, and seemed to be observing the oil painting hanging on the wall.
Looking at the back, Gu Li recognized this person's identity instantly.
What kind of extra people are these?
Isn’t this person exactly myself?
I was observing the oil paintings in the carriage.
But there is actually a self in the oil painting within the oil painting.
"Is this painting depicting what happened in the past, or is it reflecting the reality of the present moment?"
this moment.
Cold sweat broke out on Gu Li's forehead, and he had a terrible suspicion in his mind.
Is what is painted in the oil painting something that happened in the past, or is it something that is happening now?
Or is it a bit of both?
moment.
With this suspicion, Gu Li suddenly turned his head and looked towards the dining table.
"everything is normal."
Fortunately, there were no unexplainable phenomena on the five chairs in the carriage, and no one appeared out of thin air sitting on the chairs.
This made Gu Li breathe a sigh of relief and took another look at the oil painting hanging on the wall: "The existing information cannot explain the meaning of this oil painting and the existence of this dining table. I'd better confirm the contents of the plate quickly, and then
retreat."
There was no danger, but the weirdness of this place made Gu Li not want to stay here for a minute longer. He just wanted to quickly find the severed limb in the carriage and leave immediately.
But just when he retracted his gaze from the oil painting and walked back to the dining table.
Suddenly.
His white, tender and slender hand, like a woman's, suddenly turned.
Gu Li was startled for a moment, and then his eyes showed a hint of fear.
Because this palm contains the supernatural power of Folding Ghost, unless Folding Ghost recovers and loses control, the palm will flip like this involuntarily only when he is attacked, which is equivalent to a passive protection skill.
A flip of his palm means that the supernatural power he needs to bear has been weakened by half.
