Anlezuka 3
"The next room is the Museum of the Art of Death, which I highly recommend. Please be careful not to be stingy with your praise when you visit it."
After saying that, Ji Ye walked to the next door and bowed respectfully before pushing it open.
Ji Yunding didn't care about his mysterious behavior. He just tensed his body and stared ahead so as to be ready to deal with possible danger at any time.
But when the door opened, the scene in front of him made Ji Yunding's breath catch.
In the center of the hall, a woman who was too beautiful to be an ordinary person raised her hands high, holding a smooth skull. She walked forward barefoot, with only the tip of her left foot supporting her, and the protruding butterfly bones on her bare back looked like they were about to grow wings.
Thorns and roses spread from the ground under her feet to her body, covering part of her skin like clothes. Strangely, drops of blood kept oozing out of the woman's skin, dyeing the white rose half red, and the intersection of the petals had the shape of blood splashes.
Ji Yunding observed for a while and found that the woman had no breathing movement, so she must be dead. However, she looked so delicate that it seemed as if she was about to ascend to heaven in the next second.
Ji Ye looked at the artwork in front of him and said seriously: "Although death does not have to prove its charm, we fully understand that not everyone has the talent to appreciate its true meaning through nothingness. Therefore, Anle Tomb will try to show one ten-thousandth of the beauty of death in this way."
Hearing this, Ji Yunding looked at Ji Ye and sized him up. His words did not sound fake, as if he really agreed with this view from the bottom of his heart.
Feeling Ji Yunding's gaze, Ji Ye turned his head to look at her, smiled, and reminded her again: "Xiao Yunding, don't be stingy with your compliments, otherwise the artwork will be sad."
At the same time, Ji Yunding observed that the thorns in front of her moved, as if they were winding around her.
"...very beautiful." Ji Yunding is not sensitive to appearance, but he still couldn't help but let out such an exclamation.
If death is really like this, then maybe there is nothing to be afraid of.
The moment this thought flashed through his mind, Ji Yunding suddenly felt empty in his heart, as if something was missing.
Is there really any point in doing all this? Is it really necessary to repeat this cycle over and over again?
The moment this extremely divergent thought suddenly emerged, Ji Yunding immediately realized that something was wrong.
After realizing that such thoughts would cause erosion, Ji Yunding silently recalled the rules - in this situation, they were undoubtedly trying to understand Anlezhong's thoughts. Then, they should look for the problem from the first rule.
——Please always show respect and recognition for Anlezhong’s ideas.
Showing...
Ji Yunding took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the artwork in front of him again.
This time, she did not think about the specific meaning of the work, but simply appreciated it.
Just act as if you respect and agree with it, there is no need to truly accept it from the bottom of your heart.
Zheng Nuo was more alert and just looked at the artwork without saying anything.
"Praise it." Ji Yunding reminded and winked in the direction of Ji Ye.
——Please follow the guidance of the guide members and visit carefully.
Zheng Nuo reacted, turned his thoughts, and spoke carefully: "The structure of this artwork is very stable and unique."
Ji Yunding immediately understood Zheng Nuo's idea - as long as he praised the minor details that had nothing to do with the core idea, he could avoid subtle spiritual pollution.
Bonsai flowers decorated with human bones and heads polished to the smoothness of jade; a skeleton curled up in a round plate like a fetus in the womb; a kind old man lying peacefully in bed surrounded by flowers...
Ji Yunding walked and visited along the way. If you ignore the current situation, this place is indeed like a small museum with a unique theme.
Although these works use raw materials that sound creepy, they are all made to appear quiet and peaceful, showing Anlezuka's interpretation of "death".
But just when Ji Yunding was watching happily, he turned around and found that someone was missing.
"Where's Wang Le?"
Seeing Ji Yunding stopped, Ji Ye did not urge him, but just stood there waiting.
Zheng Nuo had been trying his best not to look at these works of art, and at the same time racking his brains to find some less important points to praise, and only after hearing this did he realize that someone was missing.
"Over there." Zhao Wenjin pointed to the right, "She was just looking at that painting and got distracted and fell out of the group."
Ji Yunding looked over and found Wang Le walking towards a three-dimensional painting not far away. The person in the painting opened his eyes, smiled and stretched out his arms to her, as if he wanted to hug her.
Zheng Nuo was about to ask him why he didn't stop it after he found out, but was interrupted by Ji Yunding. Ji Yunding looked at Zhao Wenjin and said carefully: "You... think this place is beautiful?"
"Of course, don't you think so?" Zhao Wenjin smiled, his expression calm, "No worries, no pain."
"You handed over your memories."
"Maybe, I don't remember."
Ji Yunding thought about it and concluded that Zhao Wenjin's condition should be the "complete erosion" mentioned in class. It is said that if one loses the will to save himself, it means that the erosion has reached an irreversible stage.
Then don’t save him, just take care of Wang Le first.
Ji Yunding looked towards Wang Le, and just took a few steps towards him, he found that the atmosphere around him had completely changed.
The sound of bones knocking against each other, the sound of bones falling to the ground, and the strange sound of friction and collision... Several corpses opened their eyes and were staring at Ji Yunding.
"Jie Ye, take me back." Ji Yunding looked at Jie Ye and asked with a frown.
"That won't do, Xiao Yunding. You know, everything in ghost stories is an equal exchange." Ji Ye shook his head, pretending to be embarrassed. "However, if you are willing to stay here for a while, it's not impossible to exchange her back."
Wang Le’s situation was most likely caused by the fact that he deviated from the guidance of the Anle Tomb members, and Ji Ye’s request was obviously not well-intentioned.
Seeing that Wang Le was about to touch the painting, Ji Yunding sighed: "Excuse me."
Although she didn't know how sure she was, after all, these people were kidnapped because of her, so Ji Yunding felt that she should at least give it a try. If it didn't work, she still had two straw men to save her life.
She looked at the direction, closed her eyes and took a running stance: "Nono, tell me the direction, and pay attention to the polar night to prevent him from wandering around."
"good."
Zheng Nuo immediately realized what Ji Yunding was going to do and immediately took two steps back to ensure that Ji Ye and Ji Yunding were both within her field of vision.
It was only a few steps, so running in a straight line was still possible. Ji Yunding felt that he had grabbed Wang Le's arm, so he immediately pulled it back hard and dragged her back.
"Left one!"
Ji Yunding took a step to the left - this was the situation they had rehearsed during their night chat in the dormitory. In dormitory 623 where Ji Yunding lived, the three of them would discuss various emergencies and countermeasures every day.
Direction plus number, reporting point from the opponent's perspective. But for Ji Yunding, this is just a comparison insurance.
After all, she can identify the location by sound.
"Second from the right!" "Yunding, this way!"
Zheng Nuo's voice suddenly became much farther away, and at the same time, another voice sounded.
Ji Yunding took a few steps to the left without hesitation, and rushed towards the direction where the sound came from a little later, and only stopped when he bumped into Zheng Nuo.
Among the people present, only Zheng Nuo knew that she could identify the direction by listening to the sound. After discovering the interference, Zheng Nuo would definitely give up reporting the direction and use this method to remind Ji Yunding.
After Tang Yun's training, Ji Yunding's body is now comparable to that of a top athlete. If he hadn't held back a little at the end, it would have been really uncomfortable to be hit like this.
The three of them fell together. Ji Yunding instinctively stretched out his hand to block the back of Zheng Nuo's head, and the finger bones of his left hand were crushed and hurt.
"Yunding, are you okay?"
"It's okay. What was that thing that was giving false directions just now?"
Zheng Nuo pointed to the side, and Ji Yunding looked over there - it was another painting. The woman in the painting was crying and looking at this side with a resentful face.
Behind Ji Yunding, a bunch of artworks had changed their positions and now they were not moving, but they had surrounded the path that Ji Yunding had just run.
If it was a little further away, not to mention Wang Le, even Ji Yun would have had a hard time escaping.
"Ji Ye, do you guys also give out performance bonuses here?"
Ji Yunding propped himself up, brushed off the dust on his body, and moved his left hand that was pressed down.
Ji Ye, who was watching the fun, was stunned by the question: "Ah?"
"That sister didn't cheat me, will you deduct her salary? She doesn't seem very happy."
“…”
What kind of question is this? How do I answer this?
"Why don't you ask why our position has changed..."
"You ran around, so Nuonuo had no choice but to follow you for safety." Ji Yunding frowned and looked at Ji Ye, as if he thought he was not very smart. "There's no need to ask this kind of question."
Seeing Ji Ye choked, Ji Yunding shook his head and sighed: "So there is no performance? How pitiful."
As a member of Anlezhong, Jiye was no stranger to doubts and insults, and he had developed a good ability to fight back - but the premise was that what the other party said had to at least allow him to find a way to respond. He had no idea how to respond to Ji Yunding's words.
"Yes, strictly speaking, this is considered as working illegally." Zheng Nuo was not mentally polluted by the art exhibition at Anle Tomb, but was obviously mentally polluted by Ji Yunding. "Does the alternate dimension have five social insurances and one housing fund?"
"Probably not." Ji Yunding chatted while checking Wang Le's condition. "It's dislocated. I'll put it back for you. Just bear with it."
When Ji Yunding leaned forward, Wang Le whispered, "I couldn't help but look at the painting a few more times. It told me something that would violate the first rule, so I was drawn to it."
"Have you handed over your memories before?"
"… I paid a little, but after it talked to me, I suddenly woke up."
Ji Yunding thought for a moment, turned to look at Zheng Nuo, and nodded his head as he spoke: "Take a careful look, it will help."
"learn."
Zheng Nuo nodded. It seems that the act of "carefully visiting" can reduce the degree of recognition of the Anle Tomb due to erosion.
Ji Yunding took two steps and suddenly thought of something. He stopped and looked at Ji Ye again: "Can I touch the artworks here?"
