Strange national destiny: My Chinese-style horror scares the world

"Uh... No, that's not what I meant. I can't kill him, but I can lock him up. Just lock him up in the cell of our government office."

The strange officer seemed to neither want to refuse Su Yi nor reveal the incompetence of the strange yamen.

So it seems very awkward.

This made Su Yi a little strange. He had been wondering why the strange officials from the strange yamen were so respectful to him.

Before, he could use the fact that he was the owner of the entire painting, so the ghost in the painting naturally had to recognize him as the owner to get away with it.

But since Grandma Gui, a passerby NPC, actually dared to attack him, this idea was completely shattered.

There must be a reason why the other party respects him so much, and this reason is certainly not because he is handsome, but some objective factors that he does not know.

Su Yi was guessing in his heart but didn't dare to say these words out loud.

Just like when facing some evil spirits, the other party seems to be non-hostile, but you cannot point out the fact that the other party is dead, otherwise the evil spirit will instantly realize that he is dead and then start attacking indiscriminately.

The same should be true for the strange police. They may or may not know why they should listen to what they say.

However, if I point it out myself, I don’t know what the reason is.

The other party might realize something, then suddenly attack and try to kill you.

So, on the surface, Su Yi and Gui Cha seemed to get along harmoniously and were polite to each other.

In fact, both sides are wearing a mask of politeness. Once the disguise is torn off, all that remains is an ugly life-and-death struggle.

"Lock him up, just lock him up."

Su Yi nodded and said.

Anyway, it's better than letting myself deal with it.

He also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this strange government office is still quite useful to him at the moment. It can even deal with legendary monsters like Hanba.

In the future, if you encounter any dirty things that cannot be solved, you can bring them over to the Gui Yamen for processing.

"That... Young Master..."

Just when Su Yi turned around and was about to leave.

The strange officer suddenly called out to Su Yi.

"Did you get the 'Ancient Mirror'? I can smell it on you."

"what?"

Su Yi's heart skipped a beat and his brows furrowed slightly.

The other party was so powerful that he could clearly see what was happening outside the painting, and he even knew about the existence of the ancient mirror.

The most important thing is that the ancient mirror is just an ordinary mirror, and its only function is to see one's past life.

Why does Guicha care so much about this mirror?

Even the drought demon standing next to him should be more eye-catching than this mirror.

"Uh... nothing..."

The ghost realized that he had spoken out of turn and became a little anxious. He shouldn't have revealed his intentions so obviously.

Then he shook his head, trying to pretend to get away with it.

But at this moment, a man in official uniform walked out from the strange yamen behind him.

It turned out that he had been there all along, but he was just hiding and refused to see Su Yi.

After hearing what the ghost officer had let slip, he had no choice but to come out.

"Ahem, sorry, Master Su, it's my fault. Please listen to my explanation."

It turned out that as early as when Su Yi just entered the world of the painting, both the ghost officer and the man in official uniform had noticed his arrival.

Because his body was indeed stained with the "smell" of the ancient mirror.

This kind of "smell" is completely imperceptible to living people, only dead people can detect it, just like a wisp of black smoke lingering around Su Yi's body.

"In fact, every time you come here, you will be contaminated with this special scent." said the man in official uniform.

"The first time, you had the most aura, and it was the heaviest. There were several of them lingering around you, unable to dissipate for a long time."

"It is these auras that have brought about dramatic changes in our world, disrupting the original peaceful times."

After hearing this, Su Yi finally came to his senses.

It turned out that the reason why the other party respected him so much was because he had a lot of strange items in his hands.

Embroidered shoes, strange cloth, unidentified female corpse, strange lantern...

When he comes into contact with these things, they will leave a trace of their scent on his body.

These strange officials respected him so much because they saw these auras.

But what he couldn't understand was that these strange items were not magical weapons, and they couldn't even kill a single weird thing, but the Weird Yamen could easily kill weird things.

Why does the other party regard these strange items so seriously?

"Master Su, you should have noticed that every time you come here and touch an artifact like the Ancient Mirror, the 'residents' here will undergo subtle changes."

The man in official uniform said.

Su Yi thought of Grandma Gui.

Before, it was a seemingly harmless existence.

But when I brought the red lantern into the world of the painting and wanted to explore the function of this lantern.

However, the ghost grandma went berserk on the spot and turned into an extremely terrifying huge monster, even more oppressive than the drought demon.

"It's such a subtle change..."

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The man in official uniform ignored Su Yi's expression and continued to speak:

"To be honest, these things originally belonged to us."

what?

Su Yi was stunned when he heard this.

His first reaction was that the other party was planning to rob him.

But after a careful consideration, I found that this was not the case.

The other party didn't seem to be planning to rob me, and if he wanted to, he could have done it a few times before, without having to wait until now.

And given the other party's strength, there is no need to waste time talking about robbery, just take action directly.

So there is only one other explanation.

"The strange objects actually belong to this world in the painting?" he muttered to himself.

This made him stand there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

In his memory, the strange items were all rewards given to him by the system after each national war.

Similar to copies, they are all fabricated out of thin air by the power of the system.

However, now he was told that these things were actually the disassembly of a strange object.

An object in the world of a painting becomes a separate strange object when taken outside.

Therefore, the strange landscape painting was originally not only an SS-level item, but possibly an SSS-level item.

It was just split up and downgraded.

So there is a possibility here.

What would happen if all the missing items in this painting were found?

Does this mean that the painting will return to SSS level?

What will the painting look like then?

Just as Su Yi was thinking about it, he suddenly found that the expressions of the two people in front of him began to look a little strange.

He suddenly remembered that he might have spoken out of turn because he had mentioned the key word "the world in the painting".

This is like telling someone that they are dead, who has become a ghost but does not know that they are dead.

Similarly, you cannot let a person in the world of a painting know that he or she is in a painting and not the real world.

Su Yi violated a taboo.
