Peek into the Heart [Unlimited]

Chapter 5 Magic Brush Ma Liang

Could it be that the little girl came back to life again?

Yu Yan's hand slowly let go, but Song Tayun consciously didn't say a word, just looked ahead in silence, his heart beating constantly.

Yuanpan moved up gradually, and finally reached the same height as the little girl's head just now, and everyone could see his face clearly.With no hair and a rough beard, this should be a man, but some facial details are somewhat similar to that of the little girl.

Maybe in this world, there are many so-called "people" like the little girl and this man, and this is where they live.

The man looked a little depressed, with eight-character eyebrows and an arched mouth, as if he was about to shed tears in the next second.He didn't seem to notice these four people, but was attracted by Fang Xuhai's sudden shout just now.He didn't hear any other movement at this moment, so he turned around and walked to the distance in silence, the spot of light that he had previously covered reappeared.

After the man left, the four of them waited in silence for a few more minutes before moving on.The spot of light grew bigger and bigger, and it turned out to be a street lamp standing beside the arch, and they finally walked out of the forest.

It seems to be a small town in front of you, with residential houses lined up on both sides of the black stone road, and the smoke from the chimneys is like a milky white balloon that is gradually getting bigger.

Song Tayun lowered his head curiously and pressed it. From the looks of it, the stone road is just different from the dirt road just now, and the texture is the same hard.

"Go in and have a look, maybe you will gain something." Lin Wanyin walked towards the town first.Although there are many houses, there is no one on the road. The man just ran to nowhere.

The houses on both sides also looked similar, and everyone wondered whether these were "copy-pasted" like the forest.But if you look closely, there are still some subtle differences between each house. The windows are round, square, or even triangular. The edges of the doors are rough, with a depression here or a protrusion there.

"This place is a bit strange." Lin Wanyin said a word, which seemed to express everyone's thoughts.

Song Tayun raised his eyes and looked around: "Every house is dark, but there is still smoke in the chimney - is that smoke - coming out."

Fang Xuhai followed closely: "And these houses are too small for the giant we just met, so there is no room for them."

"These are all mistakes made by Chen Xinhui." Yu Yan finally spoke.

"Wrong drawing..." Fang Xuhai repeated his words instinctively, lowering his eyes as if thinking.

Yu Yan said calmly: "Didn't you draw such a picture when you were young? The lines of the characters are rigid and the proportions are abnormal. People are bigger than houses and taller than trees. As long as there are chimneys, you must draw a few smoke rings. Pursue Windows of various shapes, but forgot to light a lamp inside."

Fang Xuhai nodded with a vague understanding: "So... this is actually the inner world drawn by Chen Xin?"

Lin Wanyin glanced at him: "Did you just find out?"

Fang Xuhai tried to defend himself: "We have met patients who love to paint before, and their inner world is nothing more than hanging a lot of paintings. I didn't expect Chen Xinhui to use her own paintings directly to construct her inner world. It's so... unique."

"Chen Xinhui refuses to communicate with others, and only loves to draw, so her heart is full of paintings. But she rarely looks at other people's paintings, and keeps repeating her own childhood paintings. Therefore, in her imagination, the paintings she draws The world should be like this, and it can only be like this." Yu Yan explained.

Fang Xuhai suddenly realized: "Then we should be thankful that she didn't fall in love with abstract art. Now this ugly is a bit ugly, but I can recognize what the paintings are. Otherwise, I will draw a bunch of incomprehensible squares The lines don’t know where to end up.”

The words made everyone laugh, and the tense atmosphere eased a lot.

But the laughter also disappeared quickly. Although he had already walked out of the forest, the biggest task at hand—finding the road sign—was still unfinished.A group of people walked in this quiet town with dry mouth, backache and backache, and they couldn't see a thing like a road sign anyway.

"It shouldn't be..." Lin Wanyin was a little puzzled, "A person like Chen Xinhui with a very pure and clean heart, there is no need to hide the road signs in some corner where we can't find them."

"Sometimes the most dangerous place is also the safest place." Song Tayun suddenly remembered this sentence, "Could it be that the road signs are placed in obvious places, but we just missed it because we were too horny?"

Thinking about it, the four people searched this small town like detectives along the way. Every house was built with a few bricks, and the number was almost counted. , hoping to find a signpost for the ants to see.

"Well... I have something I don't know if I should say it or not." Fang Xuhai opened his mouth cautiously with a frowning face.

"Say it quickly." Lin Wanyin flew over with a sharp eye, so sharp that one wondered if she had worked in the criminal police brigade, or the kind that was in charge of interrogation.

Fang Xuhai was so frightened that his neck almost shrank, and he said timidly: "There is one thing that I can't understand, the gate we just entered, there is a street light on the left, it is the light we saw in the forest. However, the one on the right is actually off. It is the matter of using a yellow paintbrush to add two strokes. According to Chen Xinhui's character, this kind of mistake should not be made. I wanted to say it, but you all came in directly..."

"Next time if you have something to say, speak sooner!" Lin Wanyin almost yelled out this sentence, and then resolutely ran towards the road when he came, not forgetting to take Fang Xuhai who was frightened and stupid by the way.

When the four returned to the gate of the town at a speed of sprinting 16 meters, they finally saw the "street lamp" on the right-it was an upright road sign. After careful identification, the sign at the top did say "Heping Road [-] Number".It's just that it's getting late, the road signs are shrouded in darkness, and there's a bright street light on the left, so it's easy to mistake it for an extinguished street light.

"Heh..." Seeing such a bright road sign standing here, thinking of the four of them looking for it for so long, Lin Wanyin couldn't laugh or cry, "We can't find such an obvious thing, we are useless .Yu Yan, the knife—"

"That's not enough, Lin, Ms. Lin." Although Lin Wanyin seemed to regard death as at home, it would not be too bad to use a knife because of such a trivial matter.Seeing that the other two were too indifferent, Song Tayun was chilled, but in the most basic humanitarian spirit, he decided to speak out to stop this impulsive behavior.

Lin Wanyin glanced at him with inexplicable eyes. Before she could speak, Yu Yan took out a delicate scalpel from her pocket and handed it to her: "Here."

Song Tayun was stunned: "Providing murder weapons is against the law..."

Lin Wanyin took the knife and made a decisive stroke on her fingertip.Yu Yan took the knife she returned, and made a cut on her fingertips like her, then handed the knife to Fang Xuhai, and looked at Song Tayun with a smile: "I didn't expect you to have basic legal concepts?"

Song Tayun ignored him, his eyes followed the scalpel being passed around constantly: "Are you... are you doing some religious ceremony again?"

"I don't believe in religion." Ms. Lin Wanyin, who firmly believes that she is a materialist no matter what kind of unreasonable world she is in, corrected.

"Here you are." Fang Xuhai handed the knife to Song Tayun after he finished drawing himself.

Song Tayun held the handle of the knife in his hand, and seeing the eyes of the other three looking at him, he didn't bother to ask any questions, so he buried his head and stabbed himself with his fingertip, and blood gushed out.

When returning the knife to Yu Yan, Song Tayun suddenly heard him say casually: "Next time you pass a sharp object to others, remember to point the sharp end towards you."

Song Tayun's hand that was hanging in mid-air to return the knife suddenly trembled unconsciously.

Yu Yan threw the knife back into his pocket, raised his hand to wrap Song Tayun's shoulders very naturally, and moved closer to the road sign: "But it's okay, I don't care about this, but maybe other people will care."

Song Tayun lowered his eyes and said nothing.In fact, no one has ever taught him these most basic manners in dealing with people.He is like a wild child who grows freely, one day he learns to pack himself, but his nature is always exposed unintentionally.

Yu Yan's voice was very gentle, not in an attitude of teaching, nor did she show any disgust at all, but the more it was like this, the more ashamed Song Tayun felt.

Song Tayun quietly pressed his thumb against the finger he had just scratched, and pressed the wound until it opened a little.Yu Yan's hand was still around his shoulder, patting him lightly, as if to comfort him.And the wound that was almost solidified began to gush out large drops of blood, flowing down the fingertips, and the pain finally made him slightly forget his embarrassment just now.

"Come on, I'll count to three, two and one." Lin Wanyin said as the four stood in a circle around the road sign.

"Then you press the finger you just cut on the road sign, like a fingerprint." Yu Yan let go of his hand, bent slightly and whispered in his ear what Lin Wanyin had omitted.

Song Tayun gave an indistinct "hmm" and waited earnestly for Lin Wanyin's command. After the countdown ended, he stretched out his hand together with the other three and printed the blood on his fingertips.

Almost instantly, the road sign flashed slightly in the dark night.Different from the rough "sunlight", this light is hazy, covering the road signs evenly, so fleeting that Song Tayun once thought he was dazzled.

"We found the road sign, and we can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Yu Yan sighed with relief, "Let's find a house to spend the night first. Song Tayun, I can just answer your questions for you."
