Chapter 371: The Haunted Castle
"No, it can't really be there, is it?"
Henry obviously heard this too, and his legs were a little trembling with fright at this time, although it was obviously broad daylight, he felt eerie and unspeakably terrifying!
"Well, I haven't seen it!"
Brighton gave him a disdainful look, as if he had never given the middleman a good look all along. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"How did you know there was this thing in the castle, old man?"
Lin Quan felt that there was something strange about this matter, such a thing as a ghost had long been proved to be just a kind of thing that people imagined to scare themselves in the mood of fear, and this thing did not really exist!
"Hehe, I heard it with my own ears!"
Brighton put down his glass and burped, beer doesn't taste very good when it's hot, it looks a little like horse urine, and it feels like horse urine, even though no one has ever drunk horse urine......
"Heard?"
Lin Quan saw what he said, and his heart was also a little drumming, although he was sure that there were no ghosts in this world, but he was just a mortal, mortals will have fear emotions, under this emotion, people will have all kinds of fantasies, how terrible they are.
Therefore, after hearing Brighton say this, he felt that a lot of ghost shapes popped out of his mind, but the strange thing is that most of these ghosts are zombies wearing Qing Dynasty court clothes, as if they are not similar to the white, legless, floating ghosts in the air......
It seems that he was poisoned by the success of those shoddy Hong Kong films he watched when he was a child.
"Yes, I've been there all these years, and when it's night, there will be such a sound inside, it sounds very clear and very scary!"
Brighton's expression told Lin Quan that he was not lying, because there was no way to hide this lie, as long as he had the intention, he could stay to confirm this matter, if it was really as old Brighton said, there would be ghost voices coming out of this castle at night, then it was completely possible to enter the castle at night, if there really was, it could be heard.
Denise looked at him, old Brighton didn't lie, but she didn't believe that there were any ghosts, snakes, and gods in this world, she was a complete atheist, since there is no god in this world, then there could be no ghosts, otherwise ghosts would not have ruled the world long ago, and what else would have happened to human beings?
"Mr. Brighton, is this part of your castle for sale?"
There must be another reason behind this matter, as for what the reason is, she still doesn't know, but this does not prevent her from buying this castle first, and maybe this castle is haunted, and it will make its price greatly discounted, so that if they buy it here, they will save a lot of money, so cheap, after this village there will be no such shop.
"Well, that's one thing, in fact, I didn't plan to sell it at all until then!"
Brighton Sr. seemed to have read through Denise's mind, and what he said was always a surprise.
In fact, for him, money is no longer important, he just needs to scrape together enough money to let him live in a nursing home, he keeps the extra money useless, at most it is donated to the nursing home, and then improve the infrastructure of the nursing home and improve the lives of the old people living here, this money is meaningless to himself.
He hadn't thought about going to a nursing home before, it was because he felt that he was doing well outside and didn't need to go to a place like a nursing home, but now he couldn't, his body no longer allowed him to continue to live alone outside, so he was forced to dispose of the farm and castle here.
"No plans to sell him?"
Lin Quan was a little puzzled, "Mr. Brighton, how long have you been buying this farm?"
He suddenly thought of something, this old fellow must not have had any idea of this castle since he took over the farm, right?
"My father bought the farm in 1946, the first year after the war, when the son of the family to which the castle belonged was killed in battle, so the sad old couple sold the property, and the castle with them, if you start counting from that time, it will be 66 years!"
Lin Quan was taken aback, sixty-six years? That's really long enough!
"So you didn't move in in the first place?"
There must be something wrong with the castle, Lin Quan can almost conclude now, if he really hasn't moved into it for more than sixty years, then the castle should be even more dilapidated now, he has seen a lot of castles in England, but most of them are dilapidated, this kind of thing grows older, if there is no special person to maintain it, it deteriorates very quickly, and this castle in old Brighton looks pretty good, there are many places that look newly repaired, which means that someone is maintaining it.
And it has only one owner, that is, old Brighton, so he is the only one who maintains it, a castle that cannot be inhabited, and there are suspected ghosts in it, he has been carefully maintaining it for more than sixty years, but I am afraid that the money spent on this thing is not a small amount, why did he do this?
"yes, it's been years!"
Old Brighton looked up at the castle from afar, this old man had been with him for decades, and now it was time to say goodbye, and he was a little reluctant to think about it!
Denise reached out and pulled Larin Quan, signaling him not to ask any further, it should not be time to recall the memories of old Brighton, and if he felt that it was difficult to let go of this thing, then it would not do them any good to negotiate the price.
"This castle is repaired regularly every five years, once every ten years, a total of 17 times before and after, it cost almost 1 million pounds, of course, if you calculate inflation, this price needs to be tripled, not enough money for me is meaningless, I have been waiting for someone who really likes it, really wants to cherish it, if you really want to buy this castle, then I can offer you a good price, as long as you pay 1 million maintenance costs, how about it, are you willing to accept this offer." ?”
Old Brighton is an old man, and when he saw Lin Quan and Denise's attitude, he knew that they were very tempted by this castle, and he was not hypocritical, he directly took out the price, and was willing to pay, and you took the castle, and if you were not willing to pay, then there was no need to talk about it.
