Chapter 2: The Clue to the Treasure
Of course, in the scavenger, you also have to make sure that you have enough strength to protect what you find, otherwise you will get yourself in deadly trouble.
Mus knew this very well, so he did not dare to act, and only after everyone felt that this place was worthless and dispersed, he entered the manor, and he had lost the best opportunity and was doomed to nothing.
Eventually, he took the pot with him, but he felt that he would be the one who had the most harvest.
When he woke up, Mauss lit a small fire in his residence, and then he rehydrated his body in the waterlogged pits and washed the stains off his face by the way.
He moved the pot of flowers and plants to the fire, and after making sure that there was nothing unusual around, Mus's eyes fell on it.
"Listen, I'm running out of patience, tell me honestly, where is the treasure of the Rio Manor? ”
Talking to plants, in one scene, is definitely the behavior of a madman in the eyes of normal people, because there is no way to communicate between the two.
But Maus did just that, and I don't know when he found himself able to hear and see far more than anyone else.
When this first appeared, he was terrified, thinking that it was a sign before turning into a monster, but as time went on, this thought was quickly dismissed.
Over time, Mauss took his changes as the favor of Lady Luck, and was willing to believe that if he could use them, the bad status quo would be completely changed.
"There was an agreement between us that I would take you away from that dark place, and you would give me a clue to the treasure. Mauss reminded with a grim face.
That time, Maus found nothing in the Rio manor, not even half a gold coin, and was about to leave, when he heard a message for help, and then he rescued the dying pot of flowers and plants from the ruins.
A deal is made between the two, with Maus tasked with providing a safe environment for the flowers and plants, and in return, the flowers and plants will tell him about the treasures of the Rio estate.
However, things are always unsatisfying, and the pot of flowers and plants has not been heard from since they arrived at Mus's residence, and there is a feeling that they have been deceived.
During this time, Mashes tried his best and failed to communicate with it, and tonight he was going to make a decision, either to get the clue to the treasure himself, or to destroy the pot of flowers and plants with his own hands.
You don't need to be merciful to criminals, unless you want to be a virgin and purify the darkness of the world with so-called selfless fraternity.
If it were a single person, Mus could have imagined several cruel punishments in his head, but when it came to a potted plant, it was a different matter.
However, there is one truth that never goes out of style, and that is that no matter what kind of life it is, when it is threatened with death, the probability of compromise is at least 80% or more.
Maus was going to be a little ruthless tonight, for he didn't have much to expect, and quickly pulled the roots of the flower and grass away from the growing soil and set it up on the fire.
"Hurry up, or I can guarantee you'll be roasted soon. ”
Sure enough, this simple and crude method worked surprisingly well, and soon Mauss heard some unusual sounds, which he understood as wailing and moaning.
"Stop, stop, stop. ”
"Say, where is the treasure?" Mu Si was indifferent to the flowers and plants' pleas for mercy, he knew that the other party could hold out for a while.
"It's painful, quick, get me out of there first. ”
"I'm sorry, you don't have the right to talk about conditions, I just want to hear the clues of the treasure, the flames are getting stronger and stronger, and your time is running out. ”
Well, it's a silent exchange, and again, to outsiders, it's the behavior of a madman.
"The treasure is there, but I can't guarantee if you can find it, get me out of there, I'm going to die." ”
"Wise choice, if the harvest is good, I will let you live a few more days, you better pray that I will find the treasure. After getting the clue he wanted, Maus gave a ruthless warning.
Flowers:.......
The prisoners were not free, no different from meat on a chopping board, and it was the one who decided their fate, and Maustus had planted the flowers and plants from the beginning, he extinguished the fire, and soon left the house.
The Rio estate is located in the East End, which is quite a long road, and Maus walks very carefully, even if it is late at night, the surroundings are never calm.
The sound of a woman's cry, the screams of a child, or even the sound of a fierce fight will last until dawn.
Maus didn't dare to let his curiosity overflow, that would kill people, and in such a dark night, there were too many people with bad intentions, and it would be difficult to get rid of them if they were targeted.
After two hours of walking, Mashes finally arrived at the Rio Estate, where he could breathe a sigh of relief, as it had not been visited by scavengers for a long time, as it was of little value.
In the past, when the manor was prosperous, Maus came a few times and worked here as a temporary hired worker, so he was still relatively clear about the general layout of the manor.
But now it is different from the past, it has become a ruin, the original structure has been completely disrupted, according to the location of the treasure provided by the flowers and plants, Mu Si was stunned to find it for a long time.
It might have been easier during the day, but Maus didn't dare to take such a risk, he knew very well that he had to get out of here before dawn.
Time is money, and Mauss plans to take a risk, and with the help of memory, he finds the place where he used to work, the sewer that clears swill and feces.
The paved stone slabs were unusually strong, and the monster couldn't destroy it, and Maus struggled to pull open the floodgates, and the unspeakable stench came to his face.
Mu Si instantly rolled his internal organs, squirted out all the things that could be vomited in his stomach, his face turned pale in an instant, and the whole person almost lost his breath.
"Ahem, if it weren't for the treasure, I swear I'd never want to be here again in my life. ”
Away from the gate, Mause breathed in the fresh air, quickly ripped a piece of his clothes, wrapped his nose and mouth, and stepped forward again.
He held his breath and went straight into the tunnel.
The dark passages are more terrifying than the devil, you never know what will happen in the next second, and with the suffocating stench, this place is like hell.
After a dozen minutes of hard work, Mauss suffered a huge blow, his body was cut by a pile of glass shards, and to make matters worse, those wounds were becoming infected.
Maus knew very well that if he didn't rush to treatment, he would be in mortal danger, but he had no choice.
The stench and pain continued to eat away at his body and spirit, and Maus's progress became slower and slower, and he felt his strength draining quickly.
