Josh nodded: "It was Lady Rose who asked us to rent painting supplies to paint."
Footsteps were heard in the room. "I see. Here are all the painting supplies. Just use them here. Just don't break them."
I didn't expect it to be successful so smoothly.
Many people showed joy on their faces.
Qiao Xi and Yu Ze looked at each other and didn't notice anything unusual, but based on their experience, it shouldn't be so easy to borrow it.
Otherwise, why would this studio be so eerie and scary? Is it really just open for business?
Many players have already rushed over, picked up their painting supplies and are ready to start painting.
Josh frowned slightly, if only it were that simple.
Xue Guo was about to take action, but when he saw Qiao Xi didn't move, he subconsciously stopped.
Sun Qimeng asked: "Captain, they are all going to paint, so why don't we go?"
Xue Guo looked in Josh's direction: "Wait a moment."
There were also some experienced old players who, seeing that the three men with the golden trouble-making sticks did not move, stayed where they were and did not rush to touch the easels.
"Why don't you paint? Didn't you want to rent it?" The feminine male voice sounded again.
Josh asked curiously, "We rent your venue and painting supplies, but you haven't told me how to calculate the rent."
"Tsk... No problem, you just have to leave your hearts as payment." The man's voice was cold and light, just like a snake in the water, entwining people coldly and making people shudder.
After hearing what he said, the players who had started drawing changed their expressions instantly and quickly dropped their drawing tools.
“No more painting!”
"What the hell, without a heart, you're still drawing a ghost!"
The man's voice sounded again, with a hint of displeasure: "What? You touched my things and now you don't want them anymore? How can it be so cheap?"
The air in the entire studio dropped to freezing point in an instant.
Only a few screams were heard.
Suddenly, a muffled explosion sounded from the bodies of those who had touched the painting supplies.
They covered their hearts in pain, with fear, pain and disbelief mixed in their eyes, and finally they fell down slowly, their faces turning blue.
Josh frowned slightly and asked, “Can we use something else as collateral?”
"No, if you are not sincere, why do you want to rent my things?"
Yuze said in a deep voice: "Why? It was Lord Rose who asked us to paint. Do you want to disobey Lord Rose? It was Lord Rose who asked us to paint, but you want us to die here so that Lord Rose can't see our paintings. Are you dissatisfied with him?"
"Uh... Of course not! I didn't! How could I be disrespectful to Lady Rose? Don't talk nonsense!"
Qiao Xi took the opportunity to say: “We only have some money to mortgage to you. If that doesn’t work, we can only ask Lady Rose to come and discuss it with you in person.”
"You!" The man became angry and embarrassed.
A cool breeze hit Josh’s forehead.
She noticed it keenly and dodged to the side.
The plaster sculpture behind her fell to the ground.
Yu Ze's eyes suddenly became gloomy, as if a storm was brewing.
"Hmph! Forget it, you guys use it, just give me ten gold coins each." The man finally compromised.
Josh then nodded: "Okay, ten gold coins."
A few of them took the easels and started fiddling with the painting tools, and then the other players followed suit and touched the painting tools.
Originally she thought she didn't know how to start painting, but the moment she picked up the paintbrush, Qiao Xi felt a familiar feeling in her mind, as if she had learned painting for decades, and she already knew how to start before she even picked up the brush.
The others also started putting pen to paper in a serious manner, and it was obvious that they were doing the same thing.
Josh was in a dilemma. Should he draw the person he liked?
She felt that she had no one she liked and all she wanted was to cultivate to become a god and leave this world. She had never thought about liking anyone. If she had to say, she would probably be reluctant to leave the Mermaid King and Yu Ze and the others.
All the players stood in front of their easels, concentrating on painting, and seemed to be very sure about what they wanted to paint.
Qiao Xi gritted his teeth and randomly drew a person on it.
Without any reference, she closed her eyes and tried hard to recall Yu Ze's appearance, and painted the picture that appeared in her mind.
Josh was the last to start painting, but was the first to finish it.
She tore off the drawing paper and was about to speak, but she found that her feet were covered with plaster liquid at some point. Her entire feet were stuck and she couldn't move at all.
Not only that, but even the mouth couldn't make any sound.
Everyone else was immersed in their own painting world and did not look up or notice anything unusual.
Qiao Xi looked at Yu Ze and saw that plaster was indeed accumulating under his feet, becoming more and more, and thicker and thicker.
Not just them, but everyone else as well.
Qiao Xi's heart sank. She knew it wouldn't be that simple. She was being careless.
She tried to move her legs, but found that they seemed to be fixed in place and could not move at all.
"Stop struggling~" A man's voice suddenly sounded from behind my ear, bringing with it a cool breath.
It was like a dead person was talking in her ear from behind her.
Josh got goosebumps all over his body and quickly moved away.
The man chuckled grimly. "You look a lot like my wife. She's ticklish like you. But since I made her into a plaster sculpture, she's not as lively as she used to be."
Josh frowned, "This town worships love, but you dare to make your wife into a plaster sculpture. Aren't you afraid that Lady Rose will blame you for blaspheming love?"
The man seemed to have heard a big joke: "Blasphemy love? In this town, no one worships love more than me."
"It is because I love her that I made her into a plaster cast, so that she can always accompany me in a young state."
"I will always love her young body and her plump and beautiful face. She will always be with me. The love between us will last forever, just like a plaster sculpture."
Josh calmly summoned his weapon and stared at the shadow on the ground.
The man stood behind her, as long as her spider silk was fast enough.
"Little guy, don't try to challenge me. You will die miserably."
Her spider silk was actually held down!
Qiao Xi was shocked, but forced himself to calm down.
Seeing that she had become more obedient, the man's eyes flashed with satisfaction. "Actually, you don't have to worry or be afraid. Your companion will become a statue here with you. You won't be alone. Look at what you drew. Don't you like him? He likes you too. I just need to make you into statues, and you can stay together here forever. You don't have to worry about being torn apart outside. Nothing is more suitable for preserving love than my plaster!"
Qiao Xi sneered in her heart. This was the first time she had heard such specious arguments.
But this person is obviously quite capable.
Not only her, almost everyone here was immersed in painting and did not notice what was under their feet. By the time they realized something was wrong, the plaster had probably already sealed to their upper bodies.
