Chapter 958: The Castle
Jos looked at the quiet and clean villa in front of him and said, "I didn't expect you to have a property in country F." It's a nice environment. ”
Luo Qingyan said: "I used to go out to inspect and didn't want to stay in a hotel, but then I bought real estate in many countries around the world, at least I came here to live comfortably." There are always people taking care of it here, so we can live when we come.
Jos, you're here to recuperate. There is also a nanny to cook for you when you usually eat or something. When we're done, we'll go back home with us.
Try not to appear in the public eye, even if you want to go out, you have to put on makeup before going out. ”
Jos said, "You don't have to worry about me, I'm here to wait for you to finish your business." ”
Luo Qingyan arranged for Jos and everyone to rest in the villa for one night.
The next day, Luo Qingyan left with Lu Mingxuan and Song Chengyi. They were going to investigate the situation of AK in the country F branch.
According to the information they received at AK headquarters, they quickly located the country F branch.
This branch in country F is much smaller and appears to be covered by a trading company.
This division is mainly engaged in espionage activities, which are used to obtain some commercial information that can be used for profit by illegal means.
Anything else to the point where there is no benefit.
Lu Mingxuan and the three of them quickly found out the situation of this branch.
After a few people returned to the villa, they asked Luo Qingyan to send a telegram to China, only saying that everything was going well, they were safe, and the specific situation would be reported in person when they returned to China.
After investigating the situation of the AK organization in this branch of country F, Lu Mingxuan and the three of them prepared to find the whereabouts of the treasure according to the maps left by the pirates they found on the shipwreck on the bottom of the sea.
One of the maps clearly shows that there is a treasure hidden by the pirates in country F.
This treasure was named according to the place name marked on the map, Lu Mingxuan, and they checked it for a few days, only to find that it was in a deserted ancient castle on the hill on the outskirts of the city where they were.
With the exact location in hand, Lu Mingxuan and the others decided to explore the ancient castle that was said to have been abandoned for many years.
Luo Qingyan and the others inquired with the locals about the ancient castle, which had not only been abandoned for many years, but also rumored that it was still haunted and a haunted mansion.
Luo Qingyan and a few people don't believe in any haunting. Some old castles will look more eerie because they have fallen into disrepair or abandonment, and are often endowed with some mysterious legends.
Luo Qingyan also went to the local library to check some information about the castle. The castle on the hill on the outskirts has changed hands several times, and it is not known which owner once became a pirate and hid some of the treasure in the castle.
However, Luo Qingyan didn't care about this, she just needed to know about some of the ancient castles.
Jos's health in the villa has improved a lot, except that his body is still a little weak, and the wound has completely healed.
Luo Qingyan asked Jos to continue to cultivate his body.
stayed in the villa for one night, Lu Mingxuan and they got up early in the morning, and then the three of them drove straight to the mountains on the outskirts together.
There is a road leading to the castle at the foot of the mountain, but the castle has been abandoned for a long time, and the road has long been overgrown with weeds and bumps.
Lu Mingxuan: They drove directly in an off-road vehicle and drove carefully up the mountain along the road that had been submerged in weeds.
In the end, there were too many weeds, and Lu Mingxuan and the others had to park the car halfway up the mountain, get out of the car, and walk up the mountain.
After a difficult hike, Lu Mingxuan and they took more than half an hour to walk from the halfway point of the mountain to the ancient castle.
From afar, you can see the tall towers of the castle still standing, and when you walk in, you can see many weeds on the walls of the castle, and in some places there are green vine plants.
The castle is surrounded by forests on all sides, and the environment is secluded and secluded.
From a distance, the castle gives people a desolate and gloomy feeling, and it really looks like a haunted house.
Lu Mingxuan and the three of them came to the gate of the ancient castle. The gate is dilapidated, one open and one closed.
Most of the glass on the windows of the castle has been shattered. Many vine plants even climbed into the castle through the windows.
Because many of the windows on the first floor have been covered with vine plants, the lobby is very dark and eerie when viewed from the door.
Looking at the door panel that was about to fall, Lu Mingxuan and the three of them did not move the door, but walked into the hall of the ancient castle from the side of the door open.
The light was dim, and the three of them turned on their flashlights to observe the scene in the hall.
The hall was very empty, with little to nothing but a few broken chairs covered in moss.
The skin of the walls had mostly fallen off, and the ground was covered with dirt and weeds and leaves, and moss and weeds had grown in some places.
The staircase leading to the upper floor of the hall is also in a dilapidated state.
However, Lu Mingxuan and the others were not going to go upstairs, because the place they were looking for was not upstairs.
The castle has changed hands several times, and must have been rested many times before, and it is not known if the treasures marked on the map are still there.
Lu Mingxuan: They followed the map to a room in the corner of the first floor of the ancient castle.
The door of the room had long been dismantled, and there was only a very dilapidated cabinet covered with moss left in the room, which was probably left here by the previous owner.
Luo Qingyan took the map and looked at it for a long time and said, "It should be here." Look around the wall to see if there are any secret doors. ”
Lu Mingxuan came directly to the wall in the corner of the room and began to knock.
Song Chengyi went to the other corner of the room and began to tap on the wall.
Luo Qingyan tapped the ground with his foot along the wall.
When Lu Mingxuan tapped to the other corner of the room, he noticed the difference in the wall. Although the difference was very small, Lu Mingxuan still felt it.
Lu Mingxuan turned his head to Luo Qingyan and Song Chengyi and said, "It should be here." Xiao Yan, take out an iron pickaxe. ”
Luo Qingyan and Song Chengyi all gathered around when they heard this, and Luo Qingyan took out a big iron pickaxe directly from the space.
Lu Mingxuan took the iron pickaxe and began to dig up on the wall.
The walls were very thick, but they couldn't withstand the power of Lu Mingxuan's big iron pickaxe. Soon a swarthy hole appeared in the wall.
A musty smell immediately poured out of the hole.
The three of them immediately dispersed, letting the smell disperse and letting some oxygen in.
The inside of the cave is pitch black, as if it can suck people in, giving people a creepy feeling.
Fortunately, Lu Mingxuan and the three of them are all very bold and adventurous people, otherwise they would really be frightened.
For the sake of safety, Luo Qingyan took out three pairs of gas masks from the space, who knows if this cave has been sealed for so many years, and there will be any poisonous gases produced in it.
After about half an hour, Lu Mingxuan took a flashlight to shine in the cave, and he could see that there was a passage inside.
Lu Mingxuan picked up a big iron pickaxe and made the hole in the wall bigger, at least allowing one person to pass through.
