Ignoring Xu Chi next to me, Ye Qin looked around in this studio.

Before, when Ye Qin and Zou Jian came over, Wu Qi's wife just took some paintings from Wu Qi for them to see, and did not let them visit Wu Qi's studio.

It was not that Ye Qin and Zou Jian were lazy. When they first heard that Wu Qi was a painter, they thought of visiting Wu Qi's studio. However, after reading Wu Qi's paintings, both of them gave up this idea.

However, just looking at Wu Qi's paintings, Ye Qin and Zou Jian felt a cold feeling all over. The blood in the picture seemed to be in front of her, especially Ye Qin. She even had an illusion that the smell of blood lingers on the tip of her nose.

Wu Qi painted a dark painting. Not only that, the scenes of hell are also displayed in his paintings, so it makes people feel very uncomfortable after seeing it. Because of this, Ye Qin and Zou Jian only read a few masterpieces of Wu Qi and did not visit his studio.

Now, Ye Qin is standing in the middle of Wu Qi's studio and looking at the paintings on the wall, Ye Qin realizes that what Wu Qi's wife showed her before is really a witch compared to the ones on the wall.

On the wall on the front of Ye Qin, there is a painting that is almost as high as the wall, occupying the entire wall. The colors used on it are mainly black and red, as if describing a cliff. There are several people hanging on the mountain. At first glance, there is no special place. Except for the horns on the heads of these characters, it seems that there is no difference from ordinary landscape paintings.

However, Ye Qin knew that Wu Qi was not an ordinary landscape painter. His painting must have some kind of hell punishment. Therefore, Ye Qin took two steps forward and leaned over carefully to see clearly what the painting was talking about.

The person hanging on the cliff is still the same as Wu Qi's other words. He is the five characters. The first person to attract Ye Qin's attention is the top one.

Although he was a human, he had horns on his head and his facial features were not very clear. He could only feel his pain based on the exaggerated expression. The person's limbs were nailed to the cliff, and obvious nails could be seen on his palms.

There was a bird constantly pecking at the person's face. Could it be that it was eaten by the bird?

Not only that, Ye Qin also saw a small fruit not far from the person's head, which seemed to be very close to the person, and it seemed that he could bite it with just a turn of his head.

Seeing this scene, when he thought that Wu Qi's words were all about punishment, Ye Qin suddenly thought of something. Before she could think about it, Xu Chi next to him patted her shoulder, "Ye Qin, what are you thinking? Is there anything wrong with this painting?"

"Brother Xu, I just remember a mythological story I heard in the past."

"Mythical Story?" Xu Chi was a little puzzled. He pointed to the painting in front of him and asked Ye Qin, "Is it related to this painting?"

Ye Qin smiled and shook her head, "No, I just remembered it suddenly."

"Then tell me what the mythological story you remembered is, let Brother Xu listen to it too."

Ye Qin thought about it and told Xu Chi what she suddenly thought of just now.

This is what Ye Qin heard from Tan Jing. When he was in school, Tan Jing suddenly became obsessed with Western myths, so Ye Qin also knew a little.

Legend has it that in the past, there was no fire in the world of human beings. There was a brave man who secretly stole fire from heaven and brought light to human beings. However, he was punished by the gods. He was tied to a mountain and there was a fruit not far away from him, which could be eaten with just a turn of his head.

However, as long as this person turns his head, the fruit will disappear. When he gives up, the fruit will come out again. Not only that, there will be water in his chest. But when he lowers his head and wants to drink water, the water will automatically retreat, and he will never drink water.

There was also a bird constantly pecking at his body, but the next day, these wounds would recover as before.

Day after day, year after year, this hero has to endure such pain every day.

After Ye Qin finished telling this story, she pointed to the person who had just attracted her attention and said to Xu Chi, "Brother Xu, I just saw this and thought of that mythological story. Although this painting is a bit different from a mythological story, it should be similar."

Xu Chi looked over Ye Qin's hand and saw the character, "If this person was also punished, would he be a hero who did something good?"

Ye Qin shook her head, "No, this person should not be a hero, but a person who did the wrong thing, Brother Xu, look!" Ye Qin pointed his hand at the top of the character in the picture, "There are horns here, I remember Tan Jing once told me that in Western mythology, the person with horns on his head should be a demon, and these people have horns on their heads, so, they should have done something wrong, so the bad guys who are punished here!"

After Ye Qin's guidance, Xu Chi also looked up and down the painting. He reacted very quickly. This time, he didn't need Ye Qin's pointers. After looking around, he said to Ye Qin, "All the paintings here describe the five people being punished!"

"Well, I think this is not a coincidence. Of course, it may be that Wu Qi is fascinated by the number five, but I think the bigger possibility is that the six people who participated in the dragon boat race that year, except for He Miao who jumped off the building and committed suicide, did something. This incident made Wu Qi feel that they should be punished!"

"Ye Qin, follow your ideas, these two deaths should not be simple. In the end, it is related to what happened fifteen years ago. I heard from Zou Jian that you have been to He Fang's family. The deceased named He Miao has some relatives. So have you found someone who might have settled the score with these people for He Miao's death?"

Ye Qin shook her head, "It's not He Fang, you know his current situation, Brother Xu, too, he won't do anything."

"I won't doubt him, but, except him, is there anyone who was still a child at that time and was not able to do anything. It took fifteen years to set fire?"

"I have also asked He Fang this. He said that He Miao only has one child in his family, and no other child may do this. Maybe I can check if He Miao had any good friends fifteen years ago, or maybe I will find out." After Ye Qin said that, she looked at Xu Chi standing in front of the painting.
