Unlike abstraction and idealism, Zhu Li's two paintings are very realistic, just simple pencil sketches, but they paint the feeling of high-resolution photographs.But because of this, it makes people feel even more uneasy.Such a distorted and sick thing exists in our lives, and it makes my scalp tingle when I think about it."
Are these two paintings made up by you, or are they drawn against something?"
My brow furrowed, and my gaze was more solemn than ever."
There are some things in the world that cannot be recorded with a lens, and can only be seen with one's own eyes on specific occasions."
Zhu Li was very satisfied with his paintings, and his eyes were bloodshot as if they were about to burst his eyes: "I saw them, so I used my hand to restore their appearance." ”His face showed a look of intoxication, and he gently touched the lines on the drawing paper with the back of his hand, as if caressing his lover's face: "Have you ever seen such a person?"
They are innate arts, stripped of their filthy flesh and walking with their souls. ”"The human soul will never be so ugly."
When I look at Zhu Li's paintings, whether it's the thin man covered in tooth marks and scars, or the fat man with his internal organs growing outside his body, these two "things" are subverting my view of the soul for the simple reason that they are so ugly, even uglier than the various ghosts I have seen before."
It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, they all grow from the human heart, and they are the purest art."
Zhu Li's voice changed, and he glanced at me: "You won't understand, you only see the appearance, and you don't understand what this means?"
Those skull wine glasses, human skin lampshades, and all sorts of things that have been labeled cruel to the extreme, can't compare to them. ”"Bringing beauty and comfort to people is called art, and what you say is just a disease in my opinion."
I really can't stand Zhu Li's words, the more he talks about it, the more he goes too far, I'm worried that if I continue like this, I may even be brainwashed by him.To be honest, since the first time I saw Zhu Li, I felt that the mental hospital was the most suitable place for him."
A thing is called a work of art, not because of what special properties it has, but because of how it has this special property, and you only see the ugliness of the souls in my paintings, but you don't see the process by which they become like this, which is the gradual transformation of human nature, and that is what I want to show through my paintings."
Zhu Li put the photo frame on the drawing board: "You don't understand my pursuit at all, you are too superficial." ”It's the first time I've been called superficial, but I'm not angry and don't want to delay too much on this issue: "I'm not interested in your art. ”I was expressionless, and I was inwardly resistant to talking to this madman: "You just have to tell me if the monster you are talking about is exactly the same as the monster you draw, and what weaknesses and habits they have, and that's what I want to know." ”Interrupting Zhu Li's words coldly, my gaze wandered between the painting and his."
What I draw is only what I see, and what you want to know, you can only discover it yourself."
He glanced towards the door, and the madness in his eyes flashed: "It's another rainy night today, if you're lucky, you might be able to meet them." ”In the dark and strange corridor, when I turned around, I saw a person covered in tooth marks or organs hanging in my body, and this picture was terrifying when I thought about it.I shook my head to dispel the distractions.Zhu Li refused to tell me the truth, and I couldn't force it, and after a pause, I asked another question that had been bothering me for a long time."
Jinghai locals once told me two legends, the first is related to the pig cage apartment, and the second is about a woman holding a black umbrella."
When I was talking, I always paid attention to the changes in the expressions of Zhu Li and Bai Ya'er, and when I talked about these two things, Zhu Li was still the same coffin face, and Bai Ya'er was slightly moved: "You have lived in Jinghai for so long, you should have heard the story about the woman with the black umbrella, the legend is that she has no face, and she has big braids on the front and back......"
"This is your problem?"
”Zhu Li's fingers left the drawing board, and his nails were stained with some pencil ends: "Every rainy night, a woman with a black umbrella will appear in the alley, she seems to be looking for something, no one knows what she looks like, maybe she has no face at all."
Whenever an adult man sees her, she will come and invite the man to play with the umbrella, and if you enter her umbrella, your face and life will be taken by her.If I'm not mistaken, the legend is like that, a vulgar story, there is nothing to talk about. ”Zhu Li disagreed, but I didn't think so: "It doesn't matter if this story is true or not, the important thing is that I found a set of wigs in her pillow, and when I shook it off, I saw that it was a long braid." ”What I found in Bai Ya'er's bedroom was like a fish bone piercing my heart, and it was only from the moment I saw the wig that I became vigilant."
Do you suspect that the woman with the black umbrella was dressed up by me?"
Zhu Li was very smart, and as soon as I opened my mouth, he immediately understood what I meant."
Isn't it?"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, Bai Ya'er was sandwiched between me and Zhu Li, she looked at me in a panic and waved her hand again and again: "Things are not what you think, I just arrived in Jinghai and heard that legend be told, because I often go to the city, and I am afraid of danger when I come back late, so I specially bought a set of wigs to scare those who plot against me." ”Bai Ya'er's words were full of loopholes, with her character and blind worship of Zhu Li, it was impossible to do such a superfluous thing.I have seen her mobile phone, and in the work "Voyeur", she even deliberately recorded Bai Ya'er taking a stranger back to the house.It can be said that her life is part of Zhu Li's works, and out of paranoia about art, Zhu Li can't let Bai Yaer do extraordinary things without permission, what he needs is absolute control, which is the same reason as a painter painting on a model and asking the model to let it swing like a puppet."
Don't admit it?"
I don't believe that the wig is Bai Yaer's personal behavior, and besides, the location where the wig is stored is also very suspicious, how can a normal person hide his hair in a pillow?
These two people are full of mysteries that need to be solved little by little with my patience."
Before I came to the Red Mansion, the classmate of the restaurant owner's son disappeared in the depths of the alley, is it possible that he was abducted by Bai Ya'er?
Zhu Li's artistic creation, many of the photos use corpse specimens, and even living people, who are estimated to have been lured by Bai Yaer through various means. ”The more I thought about it, the more I thought it was possible, I didn't look at the trunk of the car when I came, I just glanced at it casually, and I got into the car without finding any blood, which is very suspicious when I think about it now.Bai Ya'er helped the painter achieve his goals by disguising herself as a woman with a black umbrella, and they joined forces to make waves with the help of the legend of the rain girl in Jinghai City.Of course, all this is just my speculation, and there is no evidence.Being interrupted by Bai Ya'er like this, the relationship between me and Zhu Li eased a lot, and both sides found the bottom of the stairs."
You've got too many questions."
Zhu Li waved his hand at Bai Ya'er: "Take him away." ”"Wait!"
I stopped Bai Ya'er and looked directly at Zhu Li: "I first asked you about the specific information of the tenants in the building, and you have been trying your best to divert the topic, what are you afraid of me knowing?"
”After a pause, I hardened my attitude: "Last question, tell me all the information you know about tenants, and I'll leave immediately." ”"You ......"
Few people would talk to Zhu Li like this, his face was gloomy, a pair of blood-red eyes bulged outward, and finally he glanced at the bedroom inadvertently, and he didn't know what he saw, so he changed his mind and softened his tone: "You are in a hurry to die, then I will fulfill you."
This red building is 11 storeys high, divided into four units, although everyone lives in the same community, but there is little contact with each other, I have lived here for most of the year I have only seen a few of them through the crack in the door. ”"Who have you seen?
What careers do they all have?
And why do you live in a pig pen apartment?
”The live stream is just a few minutes away, and I can't wait to ask."
I don't know about the other units, I only know about one unit.There is no one on the first floor of the Red Mansion, and there is a blind old lady on the second floor, she should be the person who has lived in the building for the longest time, it stands to reason that she should have died a long time ago, that old thing always said that he was waiting for someone, but no one knew who she was waiting for.By the way, all new tenants will receive her 'gift' the next morning after moving in. ”Speaking of this, Zhu Li looked strange."
What gift?""
A stinking insult."
Zhu Li pointed to the big red wooden door at the door, "She will stand outside the door and yell at the house, and she will not leave until she is tired of scolding."
I received this 'gift' at the beginning, and Bai Ya also received it when she moved in. ”"It's a really special gift."
I motioned for Zhu Li to continue."
On the third floor, there is a community security guard and his mother-in-law, but then again, I haven't seen his mother-in-law go out for a few weeks."

Zhu Li cracked his mouth: "The three rooms on the fourth floor are all full, and in addition to me and Bai Ya, there is also a doctor living there, and he is in the room on the far right." ”When Zhu Li said this, I remembered one thing, when I dragged Bai Ya'er into the door, someone in the room on the far right was peeking, but I didn't care about it at the time."
How do you know the man is a doctor?
Which hospital in Jinghai does he work in?
”"I don't know about that, I just know that he wears white and likes to carry a scalpel with him, which he says can ward off evil spirits.The fourth floor is the only one full of tenants, the higher the Red Mansion goes, the fewer people there are, the fifth floor has no people, and all three rooms are empty.There was a kid living on the sixth floor, and there might have been other people in his house, but I had never seen one. ”Zhu Li licked his chapped lips: "That kid is very cute, you can go and meet him if you have a chance." ”
