Chapter 1654: Evil Invitation (2)
Even in urban areas, you can always see a lot of rotten and excessively large houses on the road, and there is no way to compare with even many underdeveloped emerging cities in Asia.
The bad feeling gets worse when the van turns into an alley. It's as if you've traveled to India all at once, with a lot of noise, hustle and bustle, and uneven roads. The side of the alley is even lined with grocery stores and shops, and in between, countless citizens on motorbikes wander around.
The driver honked vigorously to drive away the motorcycles on both sides that were not driving in accordance with road safety laws at all, and cursed in accented Greek.
I couldn't help but frown. I remember that the host was the University of Thessaloniki. Originally, our group was going to fly directly to Thessaloniki, the second largest city in Greece, but we couldn't buy a plane ticket. Due to the Greek European debt crisis, most of the planes in that city were grounded.
Fortunately, Greece is quite small, and Mr. Ke Fansen's body is also strong, so he made a compromise plan to get off the plane in Athens and take the reception bus to Thessaloniki.
However, in terms of the path of the car, it seems that even the direction is reversed.
"Wald, are you going to kidnap me?" Usually, the teacher's self-cultivation is still very impressive, and there is always a calm expression on his face. But in the face of a sworn enemy, he doesn't have so much patience.
"Just a few catties of old meat of yours, it's not worth anything if you kidnap the ticket." Professor Wald grinned, and I and Xue Ke were arguing, and seeing that the teacher was about to be angry, he said, "Due to the government's drastic reduction in university funding, the University of Thessaloniki is seriously short of cash, and I am afraid that it will not be able to receive you." So I, my good old man Wald! ”
Wald pointed to his old face: "I'm going to invite you to my castle for a few days." ”
"You're so kind." They are all thousand-year-old foxes, and the teacher is not simple, he sniffed something not quite right: "Why didn't Molly from Thessaloniki inform me?" ”
"The other day I was busy with the referendum, and the Greek people don't have the strength to deal with the arrogant Germans." Wald smiled: "I don't believe you put your face out of the window now and shout that Lao Tzu is a German, see if anyone has lifted this car!" ”
"Forget it, get me back to the airport." Teacher Ke Fansen waved his hand.
"I can't find a flight back now. In short, you idlers are all going to Greece to see the excitement, where to see it is not to see, or my castle is comfortable. Seeing that his rival was about to leave, Wald hurriedly leaned into his ear and whispered: "I have the first version of "Modesant's Theory" in my castle, I can borrow it from you. ”
I pricked up my ears to hear his whisper. I couldn't help but feel a big shock in my heart. The Maudsan Theory is a classic naturalist masterpiece, and legend has it that Darwin co-authored it with a few colleagues, but few people know about it.
After hearing this, the teacher was obviously tempted as well. After hesitating for a few seconds, he nodded, sat back in his seat and did not object.
The car went all the way, and after leaving Athens, I drove along the national highway for a long time. It wasn't until late in the evening that we arrived at the village where the castle of Wald was located.
I looked at the sign at the entrance of the village, and it was actually Magula Village. The village became famous in Europe after a wildfire a few years ago, and many people were forced to leave their homes. Unexpectedly, it has only been five years, and the people who left have already returned, and the village has been built more distinctively.
The resilience of human beings is always more terrifying than that of human beings themselves.
Professor Wald's castle is on a cliff north of the village of Magula, with a bush in the background. Because of the high terrain, you can see a small green lake deep through the forest, which is very beautiful. The castle itself, which is also about a few hundred years old, stands at the mouth of the cliff and is magnificent.
"Old Wald, their ancestors have always been Greek nobles. There's a lot of good stuff in this castle. Teacher Ke Fansen stroked his beard, and before entering the castle, he suddenly lowered his voice: "Don't look at this old guy's appearance, there are definitely a lot of flowers." I don't know what his purpose is, but he is willing to show us the first version of "The Theory of Modesant". Be careful, don't be sold and count the money for him. ”
When people get older, they will always be suspicious. Xueke chick is obviously unimpressed. This knowledge-sucking creature has been in a trance since he heard the "Modessant Theory", and he has long been eager to hold it in his hand and read it carefully, imprinting even every fold on the leaf on the cerebral cortex.
And although the teacher told us to be careful, he also figured out that Wald would not dare to do anything out of the ordinary. Maybe they have something to ask for, but it's just that the old face is not easy to say.
On the contrary, I am the most alert, and because of all kinds of strange experiences, any wind and grass can alarm my delicate nerves.
The gate of the ancient castle without a name was like a huge monster, and its mouth was wide open. As I walked in the door, I was stunned for a moment.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the moment my left foot stepped into the door, I seemed to hear a gloomy smile like a fingernail scraping against glass.
I shuddered, didn't say anything, just walked in.
As the origin of European civilization and the birthplace of modern democracy, the city of Athens in ancient Greece has always been surrounded by many old castles. Old things are alive, both artistically and over time.
If something goes through too many rings, it will seem to come back to life. Many tomb robbers usually go crazy after stealing antiques, and that's because of this. There is too much information in the old things, and people who can't decipher it will always be contaminated by the old and rotten atmosphere, so they have mental problems.
The castle, as the abode of mankind, is even more so. Generations were born and died in the castle. Who knows how many terrible things are hidden in each castle.
My eyes kept looking at all sides of the castle. Greek castles are not the same as typical castles in Europe, and they are long enough to have their own Athenian style.
In front of him, Mr. Ke Fansen and the red-haired Xue Ke walked quickly, and after entering the door, they almost looked at the flowers, and they couldn't wait to sit in the living room immediately. I had to pick up the pace.
Inside the gate is a large central fountain, on which the Greek gods are carved in relief, and Zeus, the king of the gods, stands in front of the temple with lightning in his hand and his eyes blazing, and below the temple is the spout.
I glanced at the fountain relief, and my brows were furrowed, and I always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this fountain!
Without daring to linger long, under the guidance of Professor Wald, we finally entered the living room of the castle before it was dark.
