Shao Ling said, “There’s not a single person in the entire residential area. The area isn’t very large, and after a short walk, you can get to the forest behind. We wandered around the outskirts of the forest and found out it’s not a dead forest. There are many living animals inside, and there’s quite a rich variety of plant species.”
Qin Ci added, “On the streets in the residential area, outside the houses, and in sother corners, we found a lot of bloodstains. They’ve been there for a while. There were no signs of fighting, not even signs of escaping after being injured. It seems like blood was just flowing out while people were simply walking around. In a few places, we found signs of someone falling and knocking over nearby objects while bleeding. Strangely, these knocked over objects remained untouched, with no one coming to clean up afterward.” 9xEkMd

There’s another road leading to a distance, but it’s blocked by barriers. We tried walking along the road, only to find that the road disappeared after a while, and ahead was a void, just like the painting ‘The Funeral’. The areas on the boundary have been blurred. So obviously this is also a painting of limited areas, restricting us to the range inside this residential area and the forest.”
Ke Xun also recounted what he and the other two had just seen to everyone. After listening, Shao Ling said, “From the looks of it, this residential area seems to have experienced a strange and even bizarre incident, causing people’s daily lives to suddenly cto a halt in an instant. All scenes remain unchanged, and in this process, many people suffered injuries of varying severity.”
“These are all preliminary speculations for now,” Mu Yiran said, “We only checked one house, and we need to inspect the interiors of other houses to obtain more evidence to prove that.”
“So let’s continue and make the most of our time,” Ke Xun said, looking at everyone, “What about you guys?” rMsQ3j
Qin Ci said, “I’ll check the houses with you.”
Shao Ling, Wei Dong, and Fang Fei also nodded in agreement.

“Spaintings provide those resources, while others won’t let you feel hungry or thirsty,” Ke Xun answered. NpK2Pk
“Then which category do you think this painting belongs to?” Xiao Kai asked uncertainly, “At least for now, I feel a bit thirsty, which shouldn’t fall under the second category you just mentioned, right? So if it’s the first category, where would the resources be?
“I think, while finding the signature is important, but first, we need to ensure that we can survive in the painting. In this hot weather, food and water are crucial. After all, we might have to survive for seven days in the painting, right?
