215. Castle shelter from the rain
"Boom!!" Another thunderclap.
"Yikes!" I grabbed Qi Tianyang's arm with some fear, "There are so many trees here, we are standing under the trees, will the thunder be split?" ”
"It's getting late, lord, ma'am, let's go back quickly, look like this, it's about to rain hard." Ulla looked at the time, then at the way back, and there was a hint of urgency in her tone.
"No, the trees here are already tall and dense, and if you walk under the trees, you will be in danger of being struck by lightning." Qi Tianyang denied.
"This," Ulla hesitated and glanced at Wu Lun Laka, and then asked Qi Tianyang, "Then lord, what should we do?" ”
"For today's plan, there is only ......," Qi Tianyang said, turning his gaze to the castle.
Eh, Qi Tianyang actually wants to enter the castle? He also pretended to be "helpless, forced to be helpless, and I don't want to".
Ula naturally saw what Qi Tianyang meant, but he didn't show strong opposition, but just looked at Wu Lun with a little hesitation.
"The lord is right, now, that's all it can be." Wu Lun smiled helplessly and answered Ulla's silent inquiry, "If we don't go to the castle to take shelter from the rain, we may be in danger of our lives, and I believe that Lord Wu Tilu will be considerate of us." ”
"That is, the lord is still here, and Lord Wu Tiru will definitely understand us in the face of the lord." Raka touched his head and echoed with a smile, obviously curious about the castle and wanting to find out.
Ulla glared at Raqqa, who was still a little worried.
But what was he worried about? Worried that Wu Tiru will be to blame? Or, what danger will there be in the castle? It was too dark for me to see Ulla's expression clearly, so I could only wait anxiously for him to make a decision.
"Whoa! Crash! "The heavy rain said that it would fall, and the people of Ula were suddenly drenched in soup, and I was fortunately maintained by Qi Tian, who had already sensed the opportunity, and came to the eaves of the castle.
The four of them were also helpless, and hurriedly ran under the eaves, and Ulla slapped the rain on his body while chanting a word: "Lord Wu Tiru, forgive us for our offense." ”
Then, as if having made up his mind, he gave us a determined look and said, "In that case, let's go into the castle and take refuge for the night." ”
I looked at Ula's serious face, and I couldn't help but snicker in my heart, it was really a timely rain, otherwise, this Ula would definitely not want to go in. If Qi Tianyang and I want to go in, it will have to take a lot of effort, but it's good now.
Qi Tianyang's lips were slightly hooked, everything was under his control, and those who didn't know thought that this rain was also summoned by him!
"Let's go!" Qi Tianyang took my shoulders and walked towards the gate of the castle, and when he passed Elder Ula, he glanced at him lightly, and Elder Ula immediately showed a look of embarrassment.
Of course he had to be embarrassed, calling Qi Tianyang "lord", saying that everything was respected by Qi Tianyang, but when he entered a castle, he had to ask for his consent again and again, and he could only enter when he nodded, which was simply a self-defeating mouth.
Of course, Qi Tianyang and I didn't take Ula's words of "respecting the lord as the lord" seriously, and we are not so confused.
"Bang dang!!" The door was pushed open by Qi Tianyang.
Suddenly there was smoke and dust.
"Ahem." I can't stand it and fanned the wind in front of me, how many years has no one been to this house?
Qi Tianyang also squinted, obviously looking at the situation in the room, I knew that he had night vision, but I really couldn't see anything clearly, so I could only cling to Qi Tianyang.
"There's a flashlight in the backpack." Qi Tianyang said, I knew he was talking to me, and hurriedly reached out and groped in the backpack.
"Smack!" It was the sound of me turning on my flashlight, and all of a sudden, the castle was in front of us.
"Wow!" There is no doubt that this exclamation was definitely not from me, but from Raka, this nervous uncle.
I saw that from the gate, to the castle, stretched a long carpet, on the green carpet, the peacock feather-like pattern, lifelike. On the wall facing the gate, there is an oil painting of a portrait wearing a Miao costume.
But it's really strange, how can there be oil paintings here?
"Ah, this is a portrait of Lord Witchiru." Elder Ulla suddenly sighed.
"How do you know this is Wu Tiru?" Qi Tianyang asked.
"Well, according to the records of our clan, Lord Wu Tiru was very famous back then, and once the clan received a foreign painter, and he painted a portrait of Lord Wu Tiru at that time, which is said to be unique to their foreigners." Ula replied, looking at the face of the oil painting, rather eagerly.
It dawned on me that this "foreigner-specific" refers to oil painting.
I took a flashlight, circled the portrait of Vutiru, and turned away. I saw a small fireplace under the oil painting, there was no firewood in it, but there was a flame pattern, fiery red, shining under the light of the flashlight. It was as if there was a real flame burning in the fireplace. My eyes flashed, and I quickly moved the flashlight away.
On the left, there is a living room with sofas, some European-style, but a little different, the sofa is surrounded by a coffee table, on which is a candlestick, but it is empty, there are no candles, and there are no traces of candles burning. To the right, there is a corridor that leads to a staircase that seems to lead upstairs.
"Let's go upstairs and find a bedroom to rest." After Qi Tianyang finished speaking, he ignored everyone and stopped me from walking in the direction of the stairs.
I turned my head from the crook of Qi Tianyang's arm, and I just saw Elder Ura's expression that wanted to speak and stopped, what did he want to say? Is it trying to stop us? Then why didn't he say it again?
Wu Lun, on the other hand, followed calmly, as if he didn't see anything wrong with Elder Ula. Both Tiso and Raka kept looking around, but the former was wary and the latter was curious.
After passing through the long corridor, our group stepped up the stairs, and the surrounding was so quiet and eerie that we could only hear the footsteps of a few of us and the occasional thunder outside.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "I heard my own nervous heartbeat.
Qi Tianyang took the flashlight from my hand, seemed to know my nervousness, and quipped: "Still holding this bouquet of flowers, it seems that you are really affectionate to me?" ”
I don't know why, I was very nervous, I had a bad premonition, Qi Tianyang's joke not only did not make me relax, but it made my heart lift again and again, almost to the throat. I was nervous in my heart, and subconsciously hugged the flower in my arms.
"We've been in for so long, and we haven't seen Mistress Yetiru, is he ......," Raqqa's voice came from behind me.
In fact, I also think so, the legendary hero of the Bai Miao people should be gone, otherwise why have we been in for so long without a trace of movement?
"Raqqa!" Elder Ulla scolded in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense! ”
"Oh." Raka replied in a low voice, still muttering something in his mouth.
I was clinging to Qi Tianyang's side, not in the mood to pay attention to the back, and finally, we reached the second floor, where there was nothing but a long corridor. And the carpet, the bright red carpet, quite old, spread on the hallway, made me feel indescribably depressed.
In fact, it cannot be said that there is nothing, because on both sides of the corridor are rooms with closed doors, and at the end of the corridor, there is a gorgeous double door. Needless to say, it's the master bedroom.
At this time, Qi Tianyang suddenly turned around and looked at the four people behind him, and the flashlight followed.
"My lord." Elder Ulla shouted, raising his hand and using his sleeve to block the light that hit his face.
Qi Tianyang's flashlight shook in his hand, removed it from Elder Ula's face, and said lightly: "Elder Ula, it's all here, don't you want to find out the truth of the matter?" ”
The truth? Perhaps, he said that Wu Tiru, the so-called immortal god, exists or not.
Elder Ula's face was a little stiff, and he didn't know how to answer.
"You should never come in for your annual worship." Qi Tianyang's eyes followed the light of the flashlight and wandered around.
"Yes, this is the residence of the gods, mortals cannot collide, and no one can bear the consequences of the collision."
Elder Ulla said calmly, as if he was looking at the wall to the northeast with palpitations.
Only then did I realize that the wall was covered with dense murals. Red, green, yellow, white, black, several base colors are mixed, not like the elegance and indifference of landscape splash ink painting, nor like the specific expressiveness of Western oil painting.
It is an exotic painting, with abstract shapes and concrete expressions. Especially the color combinations that are unforgettable, and can even be carved into the depths of people's souls.
Big red and dark, in my opinion, are the most visually striking combinations, exuding a strange and even evil feeling.
