Chapter 442: Fernand Manor (First Update)
I'm really sorry. I looked at the hole we had opened, "We didn't know it was a tomb. ”
The old man ignored me, and when he had finished praying, he turned and left.
"Hey, sir!" I stopped him, "It's so late, the three of us are hungry and cold now, can we go to your house to beg for food!?" ”
"I ...... lose weight" Before Ling'er finished speaking, I quickly covered her mouth.
The other party stopped and turned back slightly: "Come with me, get out of here after eating!" ”
"Okay, thank you!"
We followed him through the weeds, and after walking for a while, we realized that there was indeed a three-story Western-style villa in front of us, which we had not paid attention to before, probably due to the obscuration of trees.
I asked his name by sticking a cold ass through the hot face all the way, and the place where we are now is his manor, which covers a large area, which can only show that Fernand is actually a rich man.
After entering the villa door, he asked a butler, who was as old as himself, to prepare refreshments, and the butler stared at us for a moment before slowly walking in the direction of the kitchen.
After taking a seat at a traditional European long table, Ling'er looked around and couldn't help but admire the grandeur and luxury of this place, which was a typical European aristocratic residence, which can only be seen through movies and television dramas.
Wang Shuai still maintained his usual calm style, just sat silently, as if he was pondering something.
Fernand sat in the main seat, looking at us very alarmedly, clearly wary of the three of us.
"By the way, Mr. Fernand." Unwilling to be lonely, I said, "The graveyard of Gola Hai...... How will it be on your estate? ”
"This used to be a chapel." He said with a blank face, "In order to avoid the fanatics who are looking for the Holy Grail, Gorahi built a chapel in this place incognito, and stayed as a steward. ”
"This is the holy place where Mary of Magdalene preached, and it seems that his location was not arbitrary."
"It is said that he first found the holy place before building a chapel on it, which is the reverence for Magdalene."
"Then why did you tear down the chapel again?"
"The chapel has always existed, but in a different place, and now it's called Notre-Dame de Jurdes."
"You mean the Catholic church on the top of the hill!?" I couldn't believe what I heard, Wang Shuai and Ling'er reacted in the same way, and they all looked at Fernand in unison.
"That's right." Fernand said meaningfully, "After the murder of Golahai, the murderer burned the chapel in a fit of rage because he did not get the Holy Grail, and then my ancestors bought the land to build a manor, but when they cleared the ruins, they found the only hut in the far corner that had not been burned. ”
"This is the graveyard of Golahai now!" Ling'er took over and said.
Fernand nodded: "And there is also a headless corpse inside, judging by intuition, it is Gorah's." ”
At this time, the butler served us delicate cakes and breads, and poured red wine into three goblets, which were placed in front of us.
After he left, Fernand continued: "My ancestors built a tomb for him in his place as a sign of respect for the deceased, but of course they didn't know that there was a holy place below, until one day someone suddenly came out of the grave. He pointed at us, "Just like you are today." ”
"So the entrance to the Holy Land hadn't been sealed at that time?" I asked.
"In order to prevent that from happening again, my ancestors sent someone to seal the entrance to the mountain." He paused, "and because I felt the sacredness of it, I decided to build a church on the top of the hill and named it after him, Notre-Dame de Jurdes." ”
"So your grandfather's name was Jarde." As I ate, I said, "But there's one thing I don't understand. ”
Fernand looked at me curiously.
I put down the knife and fork in my hand, glanced at Wang Shuai next to me, and said, "How does the epitaph in the Golahai cemetery look like it was written for him by a friend?" Could it be that your grandfather Jurd ......"
"I don't know." Fernand spread his hands, "I also listened to my father about those things just now, and many details have long been submerged in the torrent of history. ”
After we finished eating, picked up a crisp white napkin and wiped our mouths, I stood up and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, so we'll take our leave." ”
Fernand asked the butler to escort us outside the gate of the manor, and just as we were about to leave, the butler whispered to us, "Sir, he never has a birthday." ”
After dropping such a clueless sentence, the housekeeper walked back to the courtyard, locked the iron gate, and headed for the villa.
"What do you mean?" I looked at Wang Shuai blankly.
"It seems that this Fernand is not simple." Wang Shuai said in a daze.
"Where do you see that?"
"Intuition."
I glanced at him disdainfully, and the three of them continued towards the hill in order to retrieve our vehicle, the ball.
After finding the orb, we found that the cave that Fernand called the Holy Land was now tightly sealed with stones, including all the weeds and vines around it, all back to the way we found it!
"That's too fast, isn't it!?" Ling'er said in surprise.
"Three hours." Wang Shuai looked at the time displayed on the bracelet, "From the time we entered the cave to the present, it is not impossible to do this, unless he starts to do it as soon as we enter." ”
"That doesn't make sense." "Not to mention his age, it took a lot of time to get back and forth from the manor, and he was with us for an hour and a half. ”
"Maybe he has a bunch of henchmen we don't know about." Wang Shuai opened the hatch of the round ball, "Then tonight...... Are we going to spend the night here? ”
I nodded.
"I don't want it!" Ling'er pouted, "After tossing all day, I'm still thinking about taking a hot bath!" ”
"Do you still want to stay in a hotel?" I gave her a blank look, "I don't know who I am!" ”
"You can't sleep in such a small place!" She continued to be hypocritical.
"Okay." I glanced at Wang Shuai, and the two stepped into the ball together, and the moment I closed the hatch, I said to Ling'er, who was not convinced, "Let's rest first, you can do it yourself." ”
"You!" Ling'er was so angry that she stomped her feet, and in the end she really had no choice but to ask us to open the hatch and reluctantly get in.
We drove the ball deep into the woods next to us, parked it and went to sleep......
