Chapter 14 [Treasure in the Study I]

Chapter 14 The Treasure in the Study In

the castle at night, in this ancient study full of old atmosphere, Du Wei stood under the candle fire around him, quietly raising his head and looking up at the oil painting on the wall. After falling into a brief silence, Du Wei did not get a response from the other party.

He seemed to frown: "Don't answer? The

face in the painting still looked into Du Wei's eyes.

Du Wei smiled, but with a bit of malice, he walked slowly to it, then pushed it over a high staircase, climbed the stairs up the bookshelf, and then stretched out his hands to try to remove the painting.

The person in the oil painting showed a trace of panic on his face, and in the painting, those eyes looked at Du Wei's face, and there was already panic in his eyes.

"Phew!" Du Wei forcefully removed the painting from the wall. Obviously, such a heavy thing is difficult for a weak half-old teenager like Du Wei to lift. Du Wei felt that his arm was sore. But what surprised him was that behind this oil painting, there was nothing!

Not an organ! It's not that someone hides behind an oil painting to look at himself! It's the painting itself!

Du Wei was a little more serious at this time, and carefully held the oil painting and went down the stairs.

The faces in the oil paintings are all bitter, and the eyes are even more uneasy.

"What the hell are you?" Du Wei said in a deep voice: "A character in a painting that has come to life? The

eyes in the oil painting are a little evasive.

"Well, this painting is a portrait of the ancestor of the Rollin family who was the marshal of the empire... You can't be that ancestor who came back to life, right? Du Wei smiled, then shook his head and said, "This doesn't make sense. Because that ancestor is more than two hundred years old. And this painting was apparently painted by later generations to remember the ancestors. I'm still that question... What the hell are you?

After

asking for a while, but without answering, Du Wei sank his face: "Oh, don't you want to say?" Then don't regret it.

He pointed to the candlesticks around him: "You see, there are many candles here, if you don't speak, I will burn you." Guess if I dare?

After

that, he turned around and took a lit candle and slowly approached the painting.

The faces of the people in the oil painting suddenly changed, undisguised trepidation, their eyes were anxious and begging for mercy, looking at the candles and flames that were getting closer and closer in Du Wei's hands. The people in the oil painting could only look at Du Wei pleadingly, their faces full of anxiety.

At the moment when the flame was about to touch the canvas, Du Wei removed the candle and nodded: "Well, it seems that you really can't speak?" Can you talk?

The person in the

oil painting quickly shook his head.

"So, what the hell are you?" Du Wei's eyes are glowing! A living oil painting! Could it be something made by magic?

For Du Wei's question, the oil painting could not answer. After getting out of the danger of being burned, the people in the oil painting also seemed to breathe, and then looked at Du Wei with interested eyes.

Du Wei tried to ask the oil painting a few more questions, but it was difficult to communicate because the other party could not speak. Oil painting can only barely make the action of nodding and shaking the head at most. This kind of communication, after trying for a while, did not ask anything.

One person and one painting, just staring at each other like this.

At this moment, a large clock on the wall of the study slowly rang! It's midnight!

Du Wei suddenly seemed to see a ray of light slowly emanating from the eyes of the characters in the oil painting! Immediately, a soft sigh seemed to be heard in my ears!

Although the voice was a little erratic, Du Wei could hear it clearly, and it was clearly the sound of people sighing!

"Listen up! Because I had a magic, I could only speak briefly when midnight struck for life. When the bell is over, I can't make a sound! Now I'll just say it again! In this study there is a hidden secret room! There are some treasures in the Chamber of Secrets! I can point you to those treasures, and then, I need your help, one of which can undo the magic in me.

Du Wei's eyes widened and he looked at the oil painting: "Are you talking?"

"Yes! No time to explain. The voice of the oil painting said quickly: "Now you start with the third oil painting on the wall, there are instructions on it." You follow the instructions, and if you're not a fool, you should be able to find it..."

Boom~!

Midnight had passed, and as the last bell ended, the light in the eyes of the characters in the painting gradually disappeared. Then the voice stopped talking.

Du Wei looked up and down at the painting, and the people inside were also looking at him, with a pleading expression on their faces.

"Oh, you said you got a kind of magic, didn't you?" Du Wei smiled and said, "You said that there is also a secret room in this study, and there is a treasure hidden in the secret room that can allow you to undo magic." Right?

Every

time he asked, the figure in the painting nodded his head. With a longing look on his face.

"Okay, then, what's the good thing for me?" Du Wei smiled and said, "Why should I help you? The

face of the character in the painting changed, and then the pleading color in his eyes became even more intense, as if he desperately wanted to say something, but unfortunately he couldn't say a word.

"Forget it, anyway, I think it's very strange, just to satisfy my curiosity." Du Wei raised his hand, then climbed down the ladder to the bookshelf, and carefully observed the third oil painting on the wall according to the prompts of the characters in the painting when the bell rang just now.

The third oil painting, also a portrait of a certain ancestor of the Rollin family, who wore the uniform of a naval admiral and had a serious look ... The gaze is level, as if looking into the distance.

Du Wei examined it carefully for a while, but could not see any traces from the painting. He even tried to remove the painting and check the back, but found nothing.

Du Wei stood on the stairs and pondered carefully for a while, he was not anxious, but patient, re-checking detail by detail. After repeatedly checking three times to no avail, Du Wei suddenly moved in his heart and carefully looked at the characters in this oil painting...

Well, the eyes of the characters in the painting ... Look straight ahead.

Du Wei's heart moved! Immediately searched in the direction of the eyes of the characters in the painting!

This is on the opposite wall! The characters in the painting seem to be looking with their eyes at a knight's sword hanging on the opposite wall!

Du Wei immediately pushed the stairs to the opposite side of the room. Such a back and forth tossing made a thirteen-year-old boy's physical strength a little overwhelming. However, the strong curiosity in his heart drove him.

After checking the knight's sword on the wall, Du Wei found that the blade of this sword was pointing at the bookshelf next to it!

He fumbled in the direction of the bookshelf again.

Finally, finally, he found out!

On the beam of the bookshelf, Du Wei touched itA line of uneven traces, he sank his heart slightly to feel it, and finally found that this was actually a line of text!

It's just that these words are written backwards! Therefore, if someone else accidentally touches here, if you don't look closely at the flower, most of them will only think that it is just an ordinary pattern.

A line of text written in the opposite direction, Du Wei read it carefully.

"The mystery lies in the night sky, and the giant spoon is the key to guiding the way forward."

Du Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly.

What is this? Guess the riddle?

He sighed, slid down the stairs, and simply sat cross-legged on the ground, holding his head and pondering the riddle.

"The night sky... Huge spoon..."

Finally, Du Wei Huoran stood up, and his face showed hope again.

What is there in the night sky... O stars!

What about huge spoons? Then no need to ask, it must be the Big Dipper! Isn't the shape of the Big Dipper in the sky like a giant spoon?

Du Wei figured this out and immediately quickly searched the shelves in the study!

Stars... Stars...

The one in the study has something to do with the stars... Well, it must be a shelf with books on astrology!

Soon, through the index catalog, Du Wei found a bookshelf dedicated to books on astrology, he climbed up with great difficulty to find it, and then, according to the instructions of the "spoon", carefully groped in the seventh row of the bookshelf.

He flipped through it almost one by one, and finally...

When he twitched a book, he clearly felt that the book was extremely heavy! This is actually a metal book! Moreover, after a twitch, soon there was a dull clicking sound of the wheel turning inside the wall...

Finally, with a bang, the entire bookshelf slowly turned itself, and behind the bookshelf and on the wall, a black hole hole was exposed...
