On the MINI car, Lin Luo drove the car, looked at Chen Yang beside him, who was like an old monk in his mind, and said, "Chen Yang, I asked you to hand over the management of the Qingxiu Guild, why don't you ask anything?"

Chen Yang, who was settled by the old monk, opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Lin Luo and said, "You do this, naturally you have your reasons." ”

"You!" Lin Luo sighed and said, "You are the elder brother, why do you still listen to me?"

"The master said, strictly speaking, I should call you uncle. The order of the young and the old should be based on the seniority. Besides, you started earlier than me, and according to your status as a master and apprentice, you are also a senior brother. I listen to you, and I can't be wrong. ”

"Lin Luo!" Bai Yi, who was in the back seat, spoke at this time: "In a family, there is nothing wrong with the distinction between the eldest and the youngest. But the concept of a monk, an organization, or a group, or even a country, there is no need to distinguish between the young and the old. We need a boss, and you're the best choice. ”

Bai Yi was right. Chen Yang said in a deep voice: "Moreover, in my heart, you have always been the only core. ”

"Whew. ”

Lin Luo sighed and said, "Okay." ”

"Chen Yang. Lin Luo looked at Chen Yang, who was calm and wise beside him, and said, "I asked you to step down from the Qingxiu Guild Hall because there are more important tasks entrusted to you." ”

Chen Yang listened patiently.

Lin Luo continued: "Do you know where we are going?"

"I don't know. Chen Yang shook his head and said, "However, it should still be in Mingzhu." ”

"We're going to 1842 Huaihai Middle Road in Xuhui District right now. Lin Luo paused and said, "That is, my Lin family's old mansion." ”

Chen Yang looked startled, stared at Lin Luo, and didn't speak for a while.

But inside, there are already turbulent waves.

I'm going to the Lin family's old house.

It's finally time to go to the Lin family's old house.

That's where Chen Yang has been thinking about it for the past four years.

"Isn't there anything to think about?" Lin Luo looked at the stunned Chen Yang, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile.

"......" Chen Yang opened his mouth, and finally said with a serious look: "Can you drive faster?"

He didn't look like Lin Luo had already seen the Lin family's old mansion, he didn't even know where the Lin family's old mansion was.

Bai Yi behind the car did not have such a complicated mood as Chen Yang. But when I heard that I was going to the Lin family's old house, I was also a little looking forward to it. Ten minutes later, MINI stopped in front of a retro and magnificent building complex.

"Arrived?" Chen Yang asked.

"It's here!" Lin Luo took out an old-fashioned key with some rusty spots from his bag and said, "Wait in the car, I'll open the door." ”

Lin Luo pushed the car door and walked down.

In front of him, this Western-style building that stretches for 100 meters stands in front of Lin Luo's eyes under the dim street lamp.

The tall and thin main building resembles a thrilling ink painting.

The years, wind and rain have eroded it, but they have not changed its thrilling appearance. The towering spires and the huge, colorful glass paintings on the windows still show its immortal glory.

Chen Yang and Bai Yi in the car were also shocked by the thrilling building in front of them, and involuntarily got out of the car, stood in front of the door, and looked up at this world-class architectural masterpiece.

Minarets, pointed arches, large windows, and stained glass depicting biblical stories. Whether it's vaults, flying buttresses or slender bundle columns, they all have a distinctly Gothic style.

"Lin Luo, is this your old mansion?" Bai Yi asked first.

The majestic complex you see in front of you is only the exterior structure of the castle. The interior of the castle is also accessible through three pointed arches several storeys high.

Bai Yi was already a little eager to enter this castle and meet the structure inside.

"Go and help me see the street number. Lin Luo also spoke in disbelief.

A few meters away, a rusty metal plaque stood. It's still Gothic, with a pointed and elongated structure, giving it an exotic feel.

Bai Yi hurriedly trotted over, glanced at the sunken street sign engraved on the metal plate, and said, "1843." ”

"That's right. The corners of Lin Luo's mouth curled slightly, took the key, and walked to the pointed arch in the middle.

This arch is part of the building.

Above the arch, it is the main body of the building.

The gate is inside the arch gallery, and the walls are carved with reliefs along the way. But because there is no light projection, it is not really visible. But it gave Lin Luo a heavy sense of heaviness.

Lin Luo stroked the kind relief and came to the iron gate.

The dark inky black, curved design, and even if no one has taken care of it for twenty years, it still reveals sharp door thorns.

Lin Luo took out the mobile phone he snatched from the blonde beauty, turned on the light, and found the door lock.

"Oops. Lin Luo looked at the wall ash on his hands, and said with a smile: "Cheap hands, touch what relief, get a hand of wall ash." ”

But he scolded and scolded, but he couldn't hide his excitement.

"Whew!" he inserted the key into the brass lock.

Outside the arch, Chen Yang, who heard the voice, hurriedly said nervously: "Can you open it?"

"I haven't screwed it yet. Lin Luo said.

"Then you screw it quickly. Chen Yang hurriedly said.

"It seems to be ......" Lin Luo twisted it twice, and turned around: "It seems to be rusty." ”

"Do you want me to cut it with a tool?" Bai Yi hurriedly said, "I have a laser cutter." ”

"Don't. Lin Luo hurriedly shook his head and said, "This is a lock left by my father, and it can't be damaged." ”

"What should I do then?" Chen Yang hurriedly asked.

Lin Luo thought for a while, and hurriedly said: "Chen Yang, go to the toolbox to find it, remember that there is a bottle of lubricant, help me get it." ”

"Good. Chen Yang hurriedly returned to the car.

A few minutes later, with a crisp sound, Lin Luo said excitedly: "It's open, it's open." Hey, Chen Yang, what are you doing...... Bai Yi, why are you running here too, get in the car. ”

But Chen Yang and Bai Yi, like wild horses on the loose, rushed directly into the castle. Lin Luo looked back at the MINI, which was lit up and the door was wide open, and he also felt ruthless and rushed in.

But as soon as he rushed out of the arch, he saw Chen Yang and Bai Yishen retreating.

"What's going on?" Lin Luo wondered.

"Let's get back in the car. Chen Yang said.

"What's wrong?" Lin Luo said more and more puzzled. "OMG!" Bai Yi finally exclaimed in amazement: "Lu Jue's manor in San Francisco is big enough, there are three or four of his families in it. If you really walked over, I don't think it would take me ten minutes, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to walk. ”

"Chen Yang......" Lin Luo threw the key to Chen Yang and said, "You go and drive the car over, I'm going to take a walk." ”

"It's pitch black, how do you go?" Bai Yi said.

"Then why are you still stunned?" Lin Luo glanced at Bai Yi and said, "Don't go find the power switch yet." ”

"Oh my God!" Bai Yi stared at Lin Luo and said, "Are you sure you're right? You asked me to find the power switch? How can you let me find such a big house?"

"Do you want me to find it?" Lin Luo glared at Bai Yi and said, "You, the king of the online world, don't you know that you turn on the computer, find the design drawings of this building, and then find the power switch?"

"King. Bai Yi looked at Chen Yang, who had already driven there, lowered his voice, and said in astonishment: "You called me over, wouldn't you do this?

"Do you want to go?" Lin Luo turned around and walked inside, saying as he walked: "When will you find the switch, when will you go to the restaurant to buy Lafite." Let me tell you, the Chinese restaurant No. 1728, not far from here, is only open until 9:30. It's almost 9 o'clock now. ”

Before Lin Luo's words fell, Bai Yi had already jumped upstairs from one of the entrances of the arched corridor.

Lin Luo smiled, turned on the mobile phone light, and walked out of the corridor.

About 20 meters in front of you is a fountain pool that has been abandoned for many years. The statue of the Virgin in the center has long since lost its once white and flawless appearance.

On both sides of the fountain pool, there is a circular driveway.

A bright light came.

Chen Yang stopped the car, rolled down the window and said, "Lin Luo, get in the car." There's still some way to go. Lin Luo turned around and walked towards the MINI car.

Just as he pulled the door and was about to sit in the car, his eyes were suddenly caught by a huge plaque on the main building behind him.

"Dingxiu Hall. ”

Chen Yang was shocked when he heard this, and quickly stretched out his head to look at the majestic plaque hanging on the wall behind him.

The plaque is made of pure copper and has undergone a special anti-corrosion treatment. Even though twenty years have passed, in addition to being covered with dust, you can still get a glimpse of the dignity of the year.

On the plaque, the carved railing is made of jade, with the base map designed by top designers, and the majestic handwriting.

Lin Luo knew this handwriting.

It was from his father.

"Chen Yang!" Lin Luo beckoned and asked Chen Yang to get out of the car.

When Chen Yang got out of the car, Lin Luo pointed to the plaque and said in a deep voice: "I know why you stepped down! This Friday, the Dingxiu Hall will be reopened here, No. 1843, the old residence of the Lin family." And you are the new president of this hall. ”

"Lin Luo......" Chen Yang breathed quickly and said with tears in his eyes: "You...... Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course. Lin Luo said undoubtedly.

"I ...... I ......" Chen Yang was so excited for a while that he didn't know what to say, so he spit out a sentence after half a sound: "With such a brilliant and spectacular site, what is Hongyi?" Lin Luo, I'm sure that here, in the near future, will be a place where the powerful and wealthy in Pearl City flock to. ”

"It's nature. Lin Luo narrowed his eyes and said, "This was originally the richest place in Mingzhu. ”

"But......" Chen Yang remembered a very important matter, and hurriedly asked, "Lin Luo, why is this president me?

"You're the best fit. Lin Luo smiled and said, "Besides, I have more important things." You, the president, may not be able to stay for a long time. You must know that a club cannot hold up a stage. Let's get in the car, let's take a look inside. ”

Chen Yang nodded hurriedly and got into the car.

This road, which was once the most glorious of the pearl, has long been overgrown with grass.

The first thing the two crossed was the parking lot, then the small indoor golf meadow, then the basketball court, the badminton court, and finally the river that divided the castle in two.

After crossing the stone bridge, passing through rockeries and woods, it is the interior of the Lin family's old house.

"Lin Luo, this castle is really big enough. Chen Yang said in amazement.

"No matter how big it is, there will be a day of decline. Lin Luo sighed, looked at the gaze ahead, and suddenly froze.

"It's here. Lin Luo looked at the Gothic buildings not far away, and exclaimed: "It is even more magnificent than the building at the entrance." ”

"Zi!" Chen Yang stepped on the brakes, looked at the Gothic complex building in the moonlight, and exclaimed: "Wenger Bungalow is in front of it, it is a small thing." ”

The two hurriedly got out of the car.

At this moment, countless long and loud voices sounded.

Click, click, click.

A brilliant lamp, in the dark night, rising.

"Wow!" Chen Yang exclaimed.
