Chapter 2676: Afternoon pastoral

  Chapter 2676 Afternoon Pastoral
  Angel did see oil paintings in the Ladder of the Suspended Hell in the Nightmare Realm. But these oil paintings are all gathered on the top floor, which is the residence of the warden.
  The warden of the Ladder of the Overhanging Hell seems to be a person who loves oil painting very much. There are a lot of paintings in every corridor where he lives. These paintings are all masterpieces by masters.
  In the beginning, when Angel left the Ladder of the Suspended Prison, he even picked two paintings from the warden’s gallery to bring them back to reality.
  So far the two paintings are still lying in Angel's bracelet.
  The oil painting on the wall of the ruins is naturally not one of the two that Angell brought out, but he has seen similar paintings in the warden’s gallery.
  In other words, this painting is most likely from the top of the ladder of the hanging, the warden’s gallery.
  But, how did it come here from the warden’s gallery? Was it because of the void storm that caused the oil paintings to be scattered and ended up here? Or is it that the entire wall here is actually part of the warden’s gallery?
  Angel thought for a while, and approached the location of the painting.
  Before he came to the painting, Angel was sure that this wall did not come from the warden’s gallery, but the wall of the cell that originally belonged to the second floor. Because of the warden’s gallery, the wall material is the same as the frame material, both of which are precious lacquered wood. The only difference is that the wall is pasted with a dark purple matte paper wall.
However, the walls on this ruin are made of a mixture of stone and wood, which is a cheap material, even cheaper than the previous deep-sea wood. The only advantage is that it has a strong conductivity and can carry the energy channel of the magic energy array. .
  Although the wall is not the highest gallery wall, the paintings are indeed the collection of the warden.
  This is an idyllic and leisurely oil painting. In the distance, there is a good harvest of golden grain and wheat, and a large number of peasant women are working hard. There is also a peasant woman nearby, but she is not working, but resting by a tree. From the sweat on the temples and the farming gloves placed aside, we can see that she should be in the middle of work or after work. Yi moment. The golden curly hair leaked from the side of the headscarf, her young and energetic beautiful profile, her beautiful green eyes looking at the distant mountains, her eyes lingering, it seemed that there was her beloved lover in the distant mountains.
  The background is the warm color of the early autumn harvest. The aperture is hazy in the afternoon. The whole picture does not use too much color, but it shows a rich layering.
  Angel has an impression of this oil painting, but also because this painting is a rare leisurely and interesting painting in the collection of the warden.
  Other paintings are either full of deep connotations, abstract, realistic, or portraits.
  There are very few interesting paintings.
  Because of the lack of idle and interesting paintings, in the two oil paintings that Angel brought out at the beginning, he also chose one of the idle and interesting paintings-"Shepherd Milking Picture.
  This "Afternoon Pastoral Picture" was also in Angel's selection at the time, so the memory is very deep.
  "Is there a problem with this painting?" At this moment, Earl Black also flew over.
  Black Earl’s voice was clearly confused, because Angel should have heard the conversation between him and the wise man. The wise master made it clear that the wood spirit is not here, why does Angel hang in front of this painting?
  Others also looked at Angel curiously. Angel rarely does unnecessary things. He stayed in front of this painting. Did he find something else?
  Angel: "I'm just curious, why is this painting hanging here?"
   Although Angel is answering Black Earl, his eyes are on the wise dominate.
  The wise man dominates and raises his eyebrows: "Why can't it hang here?"
  Angel: "I think this kind of artwork should be hung in beautiful galleries, not in ruins. Someone should hang it here, right?"
  Wise people dominate laughter but not answer.
  He thought that Angel had really discovered something, but he was just curious about the painting appearing here.
  It’s right to think about it. How could a younger generation know an unknown painting ten thousand years ago.
  Angel turned his head and looked at the wise master: "Is this painting hanging here by the wise master?"
  The wise master shook his head: "No."
   After a pause, the wise master said again: "If you want to know more detailed answers, you might as well exchange answers with me."
  The Wise Master took the initiative to mention the exchange of answers at this time, which made Earl Black slightly surprised. Because it means that the wise master feels that this issue is worthy of Anger's exchange.
  In other words, the identity of the person who hung up this painting should not be simple.
  Angel also heard the overtones dominated by the wise, but Angel shook his head: "Forget it, this time I'm here to find Wood Ling, let's put the other things aside."
  The wise master didn’t care about Angel’s choice either, smiled and stepped aside.
  However, just as the wise master was preparing to return to the path of the void, he suddenly saw Wai, who was facing him, suddenly widened his eyes, and looked behind him in astonishment.
  At the same time, Docks also exclaimed: "What is this, Mu Ling?"
  The wise master heard these words, took a halt, and immediately turned his head to look.
   But seeing Angel's hand, I don't know when, he reached into the painting. From the painting, a dark brown log was slowly drawn out.
  The log was pulled out a little bit by Angel, and the painting of the painting seemed to turn into a lake surface with sparkling ripples.
  Everyone looked at Angel's movements dumbfounded, and even the wise man ruled, showing a look of surprise.
  How did he... know?
  Under the gaze of everyone, Angel pulled the dark brown log about two meters long and about ten centimeters thick from the painting.
  As the log leaves the oil painting completely, the tree on the back of the peasant woman in the oil painting seems to have died, with all the leaves withered, leaving only the withered trunk.
  Such a change is already amazing, but the change is not over yet.
  The peasant woman in the painting originally showed her profile face and looked at the distant mountains affectionately, but at this time, the peasant woman turned her head and showed a straight face. On the other side of the face, it was dark and empty, and the color of the peasant woman's eyes became spiteful at this time.
  The peasant woman gave Angel a vicious look, and then it turned into a thin layer of black smoke and disappeared.
  At this time, the picture of the oil painting changed again.
  The withered trees grew leaves again, and the disappeared peasant woman reappeared, but at this time, the peasant woman was no longer a young and beautiful blonde woman, but a brown-haired girl with ponytails and freckles.
  This picture appeared for a moment, and then, the picture began to change again.
  The picture becomes stale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
  Starting from being as clean as new, it slowly became dim and mottled. The drawing paper began to break and crack into fine dust. In the end, the drawing disappeared completely, leaving only an empty frame.
   "What the is going on? Why did the painting change? A woman with a black hole on half of her face turned into a girl with freckles? What is this wood? What happened to the painting finally turned into fly ash?"
  Dox’s questions popped up one by one.
  In normal times, Dox’s series of problematic machine guns will definitely cause Black Earl’s snort. But this time, Earl Black didn't stop Doc, because these questions were what he wanted to know.
  Angel did not pay attention to Dorks, but carefully looked at the log, which was not light in weight.
  There was no response for a long time, and Earl Hei couldn't help but ask: "This is a wood spirit?"
   Hidden such a hidden wood, everyone thinks of the wood spirit for the first time. However, Earl Black is somewhat puzzled, if this is a wood spirit, why did the former wise master lie to him, saying that there is a trap here, and the wood spirit is definitely not here?
  Since the wise master asked them to find the wood spirit, there is no need to deliberately lie to him.
  Furthermore, Earl Black has also inspected this painting before and found no abnormalities at all. How did Angel discover it?
  Angel: "It's not a wood spirit, but it should have something to do with it."
  Angel said at this moment, his eyes looked at the wise master.
This time, the wise master did not remain silent, but whispered: "This is the first time I saw the wood spirit here. It played a shelling scene in order to avoid me. This should have been created by it. Or a derivative of its body."
  After the wise master finished speaking, he directly asked: "How did you discover it?"
  "Is it an exchange answer now?" Angel replied smoothly.
  The wise man made no sound, but stared at Angel quietly with his three eyes, as if he wanted to see through him. However, this is just an illusion, the direct vision of the wise man is only an expression of Angel's illusion, without a trace of deterrence.
   However, Angel did not try to provoke the wise man at this time, avoiding his gaze, and then said lightly: "I happened to see this painting."
  "Have you seen this painting?" The wise man asked in doubt: "Impossible, how could you have seen it?"
  Angel: "Skarub."
  The wise man ruled and wondered: "He is..."
  Angel: "Doesn't you know that the wise ruler, Skarub Wright, is the author of this painting."
  The wise man really doesn’t know who the author of this painting is. Although as an alchemist, he has a certain understanding of aesthetics, but after all, he majored in pharmacy, and painting and aesthetics are in the direction of partial stone.
  Furthermore, although this painting is very good, it is only a painting of ordinary people. It is framed in a frame of extraordinary material, and the wise people find it wasteful, let alone to appreciate and study it.
  The one who is really interested in the paintings is Franklin, the warden of this ladder of hell, and one of the core masters of Narok Castle.
  Now that Angel mentions the name of a painter, the ruler of the wise is really unable to judge whether what he said is true or false.
"Although I haven't seen the original paintings, I have had the honor to see some collections of works by this artist. Um... it is collected by an alchemist who loves paintings. There are imitation paintings of this artist in the collections, which seem to be sorted out by posterity "After confirming that the wise man did not know the artist's name, Angel began to make up his mind.
   "In addition to this "Afternoon Pastoral Picture", there are also some other paintings, such as "Shepherd Milking Picture", "The Fishing Man Returning at Night", "Towards the Sunset"..."
   While talking, Angel used illusion to simulate paintings.
  In the eyes of others, in terms of style, it is indeed very similar to the previous painting.
   But in the opinion of the wise master, there are several pictures in it, and he has the impression that it seems that Franklin has collected the original works.
  Is it true that what he said is true? He really knows what the original painting looks like?
  The wise man did not believe that Angel had seen this oil painting before, because it was the work of a mortal painter, and this mortal painter has been tens of thousands of years away.
  Even if the other party was a very famous painter at the time, ten thousand years would be enough to make everyone forget him.
  But now some people say that they have seen each other's paintings, and it is hard for a wise man to believe it.
  But the example that Angel gave, the wise man really had an impression, so he could not find a word to refute.
  Furthermore, when the wise think about it carefully, it seems that there is indeed such a possibility.
  Mortals can't let the painter's works spread for thousands of years, but sorcerers can. Franklin likes this painter's work, shouldn't other wizards be allowed to like this painter's work?
  Angel also mentioned a key point. It is the ‘alchemist’ who has collected the other party’s works.
  Most alchemists prefer art that can cultivate aesthetics because they have to create drawings. Therefore, there are no fewer alchemists who collect mortal paintings.
  The collection of wizards, once well maintained, it is not a problem to keep them for thousands of years. Moreover, many wizarding organizations and wizarding families will remake copies of some ancient books from time to time in order to cause the problem of the loss of the original copy.
  If Angel really sees a certain alchemist’s collection of painters’ works, it seems, it’s not impossible.
  However, the rule of the wise still feels weird. Is there really such a coincidence, Angel has just seen this author's paintings, and he just happened to be here?
  If this is the first coincidence, the wise man can accept it. But Angel was always covered by a mist.
  This makes the wise man have to doubt that Angel came prepared. Or is he actually a descendant of a wizard related to Naraku Castle?
  This refers to not only wizards who are close to Naraku Castle, but also wizards who are hostile to Naraku Castle.
  So, the wise men are now more and more curious about Angel's identity.
  While the wise man was observing Angel, Angel continued: "By the way, the original picture of "Afternoon Pastoral" is like this."
  Angel waved again, and a phantom appeared in front of everyone.
  The original picture of the so-called "Afternoon Pastoral Picture" is the last picture that appeared before. The peasant woman in the painting is not a blond woman, but a girl with freckles in a ponytail.
   "Because the original picture is different from this one, I found something wrong, so I tried to solve the puzzle on the picture."
   "The final result is what you see."
  
The life energy in this wood is what keeps the paintings going forever, and this wood is hidden in the space of the painting... to be precise, not in the painting, but in a reflective film on the surface of the painting.

  Angel said at this moment, meaning: "This film is a bit like a mirror."
  Mirror surface?
  Everyone frowned when they heard this word, because they thought of a demon who seemed to not exist: the demon of mirror.
   Later, they also found the mark of a suspected "mirror of the mirror". Half of the mark was the side face of a long-haired woman, and the other half was the side face of a man wearing a hat.
  The side face of the "peasant woman" in the painting they saw before seemed to be vaguely similar to the long-haired woman in the mark.
  Is this painting related to the Demon God of Mirror?
  Hei Earl thought about this, "Yu Guang" glanced at the wise master. The wise man ruled earlier suggested that the person who hung up this painting here is worthy of an exchange of questions with Angell.
  So, is there a connection between the demon of the mirror and the dominion of the wise?
