"Oh my God. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ info" The moment I saw the whole picture of the castle, I couldn't help but be surprised, "Xiaowen, James and their family used to have a high status, right?"
The castle in front of you is really very majestic, a typical medieval architectural style, although it has been some years, but it still looks like the castle in the fairy tale, with the same dream-like beauty.
"It's beautiful, isn't it? When I first saw this castle yesterday, I really felt like a princess. Xiaowen was also very excited.
The car quickly stopped in front of the castle, and when I got closer to it, I suddenly noticed that up close, the castle lacked a bit of its previous spectacular beauty, on the contrary, it looked excessively depressed.
The whole castle was made of dark stone, and because of its age, the stones were covered with moss, and it looked a little eerie up close.
Although I was mentally prepared that James was not an ordinary person, the moment I saw this castle, I still had a particularly bad premonition in my heart.
Xiaowen walked in front and quickly pushed open the castle door, which creaked and creaked.
"Then why is it so dark?" As soon as I entered the door, I found that it was pitch black, and a cold aura came to my face, and I couldn't see my fingers.
I condensed my spiritual power and looked at it in the dark.
The castle is a very traditional medieval building, so the ceilings are very, very high, and the whole living room is empty, and there is no electric light.
"I'm sorry, because this house is so big, and it is very troublesome to decorate and maintain, so there is no light in the hall. Xiaowen's voice sounded in the dark, "Don't be nervous, there is a light in the upstairs room." โ
Xiaowen's mobile phone lit up quickly, but I didn't want the moment the phone lit up, I suddenly saw a miserable white face appear in front of me.
"Ahh
I screamed in fright, and Rong Qi on the side reacted more quickly, and directly slashed towards the face in front of me.
Fortunately, I reacted quickly and grabbed Rong Qi's arm.
At the same time, I suddenly heard a non-standard Chinese.
"You two are the guests brought by Xiaowen, right?"
I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw that a flashlight suddenly lit up on the other party's place, and I saw that the miserable face just now was actually a European and American woman who looked about thirty years old. That woman is actually not very old, and her facial features are quite beautiful. But it looked very haggard and weak, especially with its blonde hair on one side, which now looked a little withered, and the pale face and dry lips, as well as the bruised dark circles under the eyes, made the face look very scary.
"This is James's sister. At this time, Xiaowen hurriedly spoke, "It's called Elizabeth." โ
It turned out that this was the woman who was said to be very introverted and had been living in this castle for a long time.
"Excuse me, did I scare you?" said Elizabeth, her tone calm and cold, "Come on, let's go this way, we can just have dinner." โ
As she spoke, Elizabeth flashed a white flashlight and walked silently towards the staircase.
Xiaowen smiled at us apologetically, "I'm sorry, sister, she's like this." I was also shocked by her yesterday. โ
I nodded, and followed Xiaowen and Elizabeth up the stairs.
The staircase of this castle is very high, it is kind of spiraling, and we walked all the way to the restaurant on the second floor.
The room was finally brightly lit, there was a very long table like in the TV show, and James was already pushing a cart with a Western-style dinner on it.
"Thanks, I'm really sorry this time," I politely said to James.
"No thanks. James seems to be a little more enthusiastic now than he was on the plane, "This room is already empty, and two more people are out of the way." โ
As he spoke, he handed me the steak in his hand, and as I took it, I pretended to touch his hand with my little finger unintentionally.
My face changed imperceptibly.
It's cold.
James's hands, like Rong Qi, were cold.
The meal was eaten in extraordinary silence, and I don't know if it was James who was following table manners or whatever, and didn't talk much from beginning to end.
After eating, Xiaowen quickly and thoughtfully stood up and said to wash the dishes, I was also disturbing other people's guests, so I took the initiative to stand up and come to the kitchen with her to wash the dishes.
When I turned on the faucet, I noticed that the water was particularly cold and biting.
"It's cold. I couldn't help frowning, "Isn't there hot water?"
"Well, James doesn't have hot water in their house. Xiaowen seemed to be accustomed to the cold water, "If you are afraid of the cold, boil the hot water at night and wipe your body." โ
I frowned.
Now this season is okay, winter in Britain is still very cold, there is no hot water at that time, that ordinary people simply can't stand it.
I was even more sure that there was something strange about this house, but I didn't want to say anything, just silently washing the dishes.
After washing the dishes, Xiaowen went back to rest, and I went back to my room.
Rong Qi's room and I are on the third floor, although the facilities in the castle are old, but the decoration is still very beautiful. The huge bed has a very large curtain and looks very good.
I climbed into bed and lay down, Rong Qi finished taking a cold shower at this time, wiped his head from the bathroom, and said, "Go take a bath, I have already warmed up the water for you." โ
Although there is no hot water, but fortunately there is a natural hot water kettle of Rong Qi, after I took a hot hot shower, Rong Qi helped me blow my hair, I finally couldn't help asking: "Rong Qi, do you see the identities of those two people?"
"The two of them are ghosts. Rong Qi gave me a positive answer this time, "It's just that they seem to be a little different from Chinese ghosts." I don't know exactly what it is, so let's wait and see. โ
I nodded, feeling sleepiness hit me, and in a haze, I felt Rong Qi carry me to the bed to sleep.
That night, I had a nightmare.
In the dream, I went to the forest in front of Rong's house again, the fire was long, and I saw Rong Qi with his back to me, constantly scorched by the flames, and the soul on his body was extremely weak, as if he would be burned by the flames at any time.
"Rong Qi!"
I finally came to my senses, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that the room was pitch black.
I immediately went to check the container next to me and found him lying quietly next to me, and I was finally relieved.
Now Rong Qi's body has not fully recovered, so he needs to sleep every night, and when I woke him up, he lightly remembered to drink water.
But as soon as I got out of the bed, I felt a biting chill.
I was stunned for a moment, looked at the window, and realized that the window had opened somewhere.
I remember locking the window before I went to bed.
I walked over to the window and reached for it to close.
But at the moment when my hand reached out of the window, a piercing chill suddenly came from my wrist.
