The Whispering Verses Chapter 350: Puppet making

Now, priests Shade and Augustus have roughly understood the basic characteristics of the relic oil paintings.

The house model in the oil painting will be consistent with the real house, and when the people in the house directly come into contact with the oil painting, puppets corresponding to the contacts will appear in the oil painting.

The puppet has its own instinctive intelligence and will actively escape from the murderous maniac in the model house. The movement of the puppet depends on the location of the real person. If the real person is in the house, the puppet can only move within the building corresponding to the house; if the real person is not in the house, the puppet will most likely move randomly.

The Bandage Killing Puppet will continue to chase other puppets in the oil painting, and the injuries to the puppets will be directly reflected on people in real life, eventually leading to the death of real people in reality. I'm afraid that the truth about Mr. Freeman's death after falling from a building is that the puppet corresponding to him in the oil painting was finally killed by the bandage puppet after a half-month pursuit.

Ordinary people will forget about oil paintings after being exposed to oil paintings. Later, they will occasionally see the phantom of a bandage puppet in reality, and suffer mental torture in dreams, causing mental problems.

The only possible containment method currently known is to let the painting itself leave the house, which an ordinary person, Mrs. Freeman, once did.

After Mr. Freeman's death, the painting can be taken out of the real building without any corresponding puppet in the painting's house model. Once taken out of the real building, the conditions for touching the oil painting inside the building and causing the puppet to appear in the house model inside the oil painting cannot be met.

It’s just that it’s impossible for Shad and the Freeman boy to commit suicide now, so this method cannot be tried.

In fact, Shade also had another idea, which was to demolish the house in reality so that the corresponding building would be lost in the oil painting. But Shade is not sure whether this will cause other weird changes in the relic, such as the bandage puppet directly breaking through the limitations of the house model. So, this idea is only a final consideration.

Just now, the five people hurriedly came to the street together and attracted the attention of passers-by. After Shade, Mrs. Freeman and Little Freeman returned to the house and confirmed that the bandage puppet was still some distance away from the first floor in the oil painting, Shade said to the priest outside the door:

"Priest Augustus, take the girl to Dr. Schneider's clinic and let the doctor take care of her first. If Dr. Schneider has time, ask him to come too. Although I already have some ideas, safety first , no amount of caution is enough to deal with this kind of thing."

Mrs. Freeman also agreed to let her daughter go to a safe place for the time being. While the priest left, Shade asked the two ordinary people to stand farther away. He turned his back to them and tried various methods in the hall. Attempts to destroy paintings. But since it is a relic, it will not be destroyed so easily. No matter whether it was a gunshot, Silver Moon's slash or even the moonlight sword, it could not leave any mark on the oil painting.

In fact, Shade's attack actually made the bandage puppet in the oil painting move much faster. It seems that the oil painting knew that someone was trying to destroy it, so it accelerated its attack on Shade.

But this thing is only rated as [Clerical Grade] at best, or even [Poet Grade] with a high probability. It is something like an urban legend that can be told everywhere. Its killing efficiency is really slow, and even when facing ordinary people, it tries to only face one person at a time.

For the Ring Warlock, although it will be quite troublesome to deal with it after being unfortunately involved, there are still other ways.

Priest Augustus returned soon, but Dr. Schneider was not followed behind him. Fortunately, the doctor was out for consultation and was not in the clinic for the time being, so he would not be involved in this matter.

Priest August seemed a little worried. After learning that Shade had failed to destroy the oil painting, the wrinkles on his brow deepened. He lowered his old voice and asked Shade in the foyer:

"Before I left, you said you had other ways."

"Yes, Mr. Freeman was obsessed with wood carving before his death. This should not be a change of interest. Although he forgot about oil painting and didn't know what happened to him, he definitely had an idea. At least before his death Within a week, he vaguely realized what he wanted to do. This painter's inspiration is really powerful. He must have thought of the method when he came into contact with oil painting in his dream."

Shad got Mr. Freeman’s relic from Priest August, which was the poorly made wood carving, and then carefully placed the wood carving on the oil painting.

The boy was pulled by Mrs. Freeman and stood behind the stairs. Only two ring magicians looked directly at the oil painting. Under their gaze, the small wooden sculpture of a man actually melted on the surface of the oil painting like butter.

Subsequently, new puppets actually appeared inside the model house in the oil painting. It appeared at the door of the model, and as a gray light sank into the puppet from the depths of the oil painting, the new puppet merged with the two puppets, one large and one small, representing the detective and the boy.

The expressions of the puppets cannot be seen, but the three people clearly saw Mr. Freeman's puppet and approached the smaller puppet. It "came alive" and Mr. Freeman's soul was actually in the oil painting.

Then, the boy George, who was being pulled by his mother, suddenly widened his eyes and looked around:

"Father, oh, is it you? Father!"

Although the middle-aged woman couldn't see what the detective and the priest did, she seemed to understand. She sobbed softly, squatted down and hugged her son.

Xia De asked the priest in a low voice:

"It seems the idea is correct, the puppet's sculptor was killed by the painting, so it can enter the painting to help you. But what use will the living puppet be? Can we get more puppets, such as priest puppets, soldier puppets, and even gods."

"Puppets made by hand are only useful to people who are affected by this relic. Detective, do you remember? Mr. Freeman went to the church before his death and got a Feast of Holy Prayer commemorative puppet, but he still died . So, I think only puppets made by hand are useful. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be too easy to crack this relic? ”

Priest Augustus deduced, and then looked at Shade:

"Although I don't know what the puppets you carved will be used for, detective, can you carve puppets?"

"Of course not, but I have other ways."

Xia De said, taking out the revolver issued by MI6 from his waist, and then took out the handkerchief.

Cover the gun with a handkerchief. When he takes the handkerchief away, a small pistol toy puppet appears in his palm:

"A puppet pistol made by myself."

Xia De said with a smile.

"You really have a way."

Priest August also smiled.
