There was a noisy noise made by a monster-headed python in my ears, and a flashlight beam shaking violently in front of me, and I carried Zhao Zitong on my back and climbed up the narrow stone steps with difficulty.

Fortunately, it is a petite girl like Zhao Zitong on her back, if I carry Liu Fatzi, I will definitely be tired to death.

Overhead, the ship-shaped building was as black as a mountain, and I was a little out of breath.

The stone steps under my feet were small but delicate, and the pebbles were paved with wavy patterns, as if a boat-shaped building was sailing.

After a long and difficult climb, I was almost exhausted, but I only climbed halfway up the mountain.

I gave way to the side, handed Zhao Zitong to Kuroko, and asked him to carry Zhao Zitong up first.

Heizi didn't talk nonsense, and hurriedly took Zhao Zitong and continued to climb up.

I turned my head to look back, and saw that in the clearing below, Leng Yue was already retreating towards the rockery, and there was a short distance before I reached the entrance of this stone step.

Holding on to the boulder next to me, I took off my mask and threw it on the ground.

At this point, I can't worry too much about it. If I continue to wear a mask, I'm afraid I'm going to suffocate.

I don't know where Heizi's mask has gone for a long time, and Zhao Zitong hasn't worn a mask for so long, and they are both safe and sound at present, which is enough to show that even if the miasma here is harmful to the human body, it will not affect my actions in a short period of time.

I looked down again and saw that Leng Yue was already running up the stone steps quickly.

And above me, Kuroko had already climbed a quarter of the way with Zhao Zitong on his back.

I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth and persevered, ignoring my already sore legs, and continued to run as hard as I could.

After a short time, Kuroko and I climbed to the top of the rockery and stood outside a small single-door wooden door in the ship-shaped building.

The door is not locked, the red lacquer has been mottled and deepened, and the row of tiles within reach is embossed with delicate patterns, including pictures of auspicious beasts, gossip and peace, and clouds rising from the sun......

Because Heizi was carrying Zhao Zitong on his back, his backpack had been changed to hang in front of him, and it was inconvenient to stretch out his hands.

I stepped forward and raised my hand to push open the small door.

"Squeak ......"

The wooden door slowly opened, making a heart-wrenching grinding sound.

There was a threshold under the door, and it was pitch black inside the door, and you couldn't see your fingers.

I shone the flashlight into the house and saw a wooden staircase descending on the other side of the threshold, and in front of the door, there was a delicate openwork wooden screen with a vivid bamboo forest pattern on it.

"You go first, watch your step." I said loudly to Kuroko.

The beads of sweat on Kuroko's head almost slipped into his eyes, so he could only squint and insist. He nodded at me with difficulty, crossed the threshold with Zhao Zitong on his back, and stepped down the wooden stairs.

After he stepped on the ground, he hurriedly put Zhao Zitong down carefully, took off his backpack, and didn't care about observing whether there was danger around him, so he sat on the ground and raised his arm to wipe the sweat on his face, panting heavily.

I held on to the door frame and looked back, startled.

Cold Moon was already close to me, and behind him was the monster-headed python.

Because the stone steps are narrow, the rockery on both sides is almost one person high, so that the giant python can only chase on the rockery, giving people a fierce momentum that comes from the top.

I didn't dare to stay longer, so I hurriedly rushed into the wooden door. Before my feet hit the ground, I felt a hard blow from behind, and I fell headlong and hit the beautiful screen.

I only heard the crunch sound of "click", and such a beautiful work of art was destroyed under me.

I hurriedly got up, found the flashlight, shone it at the entrance, and saw that Leng Yue had already entered the door, stepped on the steps inside the door, and pulled the wooden door back up.

The giant python's huge head wanted to rush in, but it was blocked by the rockery on both sides of the stone steps outside the door, and it could only hit the pillar at the corner of the house at once, making a loud "bang" sound, and the whole house trembled violently.

All of us had a drastic change in their faces, never expecting that this monster-headed python would be so ferocious, and completely disobeyed the rules of other strange things in the ancient mansion, and rushed indiscriminately regardless of territory.

Suddenly, a deep male voice came from the other end of the room.

"Evil animal, go quickly!"

The monster-headed python's body stiffened violently, and it actually stopped impacting, and then retreated without looking back.

We were so startled by the sudden sound that we quickly turned our heads to look, and even panicked so much that we forgot to raise our flashlight.

Leng Yue calmly descended the stairs, opened her green eyes, looked at the other side of the house, didn't say a word, walked past us, and put a pair of iron chopsticks in front of her.

Heizi trembled and touched the flashlight, raised it to the opposite side, and saw a wooden table, behind which there was a man dressed in Qing Dynasty costume, holding a brush, writing slowly, and I didn't know what was being written.

When I saw this person, I let out a "groan" in my heart, and hurriedly got up from the broken screen, ran to Zhao Zitong's side, and protected her behind me.

The person in the house was none other than the person I saw with Leng Yue in the green building next to the bamboo forest.

We stared nervously at the person across from us, but he was unaware of his surroundings and just looked down and wrote something.

Zhao Zitong woke up faintly, frowned, rubbed the back of his head, opened his eyes, and slowly sat up with his arms on the ground.

When she saw where we were, she frowned and asked, "Where is this?" ”

None of us answered her, for we were all watching the man's every move with extreme vigilance.

Suddenly, the man "bang" dispersed into a mist, disappeared in front of our eyes, and appeared behind me in the blink of an eye, standing next to Zhao Zitong, with his hands behind his back, looking down at Zhao Zitong, with a very weird smile on his face.

Zhao Zitong exclaimed, dragged my clothes and hid behind me, and finally showed the girl's side again.

After the man looked at us a few times with his eyes, he nodded at me and said, "The contemptible person's surname is Wang, his name is Jintang, and the words are secluded, dare to ask how to call Brother Tai?" ”

I listened to his accent, not like a Jiangnan person, frowned and asked: "You are not from Yangzhou?" ”

Wang Jintang shook his head and replied: "I was born in Yangzhou City, and I have been going north for 20 years, and my accent has changed. Again, ask my brother for his name. ”

Zhao Zitong suddenly let out a low "ah", and then said in my ear: "He is the person who told me the story, this is the voice, it will definitely not be wrong." ”

I nodded and said to Wang Jintang, "My name is Wu Yishu, and these are my companions. We didn't mean to offend, we just got to you somehow. If my guess is correct, you should be the owner of this house, right? ”

Wang Jintang shook his head and said, "No, I am the owner of this tomb. ”

He paused slightly, squinted at Zhao Zitong who was hiding behind me, and said to me, "I have something to discuss with you." ”
