Chapter 124: Neither of the Two Places is Missing
I was busy thanking you, and the old lady stretched out her finger with crooked yellow nails and pointed to a path: "You go all the way here, and you see a big bluestone mansion, and the back door of the big mansion leads to Ziyuchai Street. ”
As soon as I heard this, I thanked him a thousand times, and the old lady showed a strange smile, waved her hand again and again, and smiled: "Hey, hey, the old body is the same as you, and it's better to be nosy and lively." ”
I was stunned: "Old lady, how do you know that Mei Cai loves to be lively and nosy?" ”
The old lady coughed twice, but she didn't hear it, and her eyes were half-closed as if she was tired, and I had doubts in my heart, so I had to follow the path pointed out by the old lady.
This path is very narrow, both sides are called out of the name of the flowers and trees, walking only feel surprisingly dull, but teach people to tremble, I listened to it, only to suddenly realize, such a dull, all because there is no sound here at all, insects, the sound of the wind, the sound of grass and leaves rubbing, there is no at all, people feel as if this place is fake.
Strange, what's going on? I turned around and looked at the old lady on the road, only to find that she was long gone. My heart suddenly sank, and I was very strange, how did this old lady know that Ziyuchai Street was in Xuanyin? Could it be that she is not mortal?
Now, there is no choice but to act with the camera.
"Hey, hey, hey......" A strange laugh came from nowhere, and I looked around, but I couldn't see anything.
muttering in his heart, he just wanted to get out of here quickly, so he quickened his pace and walked straight ahead.
I don't know how long I walked, but the silhouette of a shadowy house appeared in the distance, I estimated the time, the sky should have been dark, but it was still only half-light and not dark. Where to find a way back
The big mansion doesn't look much like the buildings in the capital, there are no carved beams and painted buildings and high rolled up eaves spires, but just simple bluestones, but there is no fireworks in the world.
There are two stone beasts standing next to the gate of the house, but the stone beasts are not the same, but far apart, a turtle with horns, is standing upside down, and there is a monster that is not like a bird, and a chicken is not like a chicken, and it is not a pair of monsters, as if it is not a pair, but a companion who has been put together.
There was no knocker on the door, only a piece of slab, and I walked up the unworn bluestone steps and stepped forward to pat it twice: "Dare to ask if anyone is there?" I got lost and wanted to inquire about how to get to Ziyuchai Street. ”
It was silent inside, and if no one was at home, it would be terrible, I lowered my head in annoyance, thinking to myself, if no one was there, then I would have been able to find it if I went around to the back of the house.
Thinking of this, I looked at the side of the house, and couldn't help but gasp, only to see that both sides of the house were full of bottomless cliffs. It's as if the house is a bridge that connects to the other side of the cliff.
Strange, near Ziyuchai Street, is there such a place?
Before I could figure it out, without warning, the door opened by itself, and I hurriedly walked up with a smile, trying to say hello to the child servant who opened the door, but strangely, there was no one behind the door.
I suspiciously probed in, hesitantly thinking, there is no one in this place, and I am afraid that it will not be good to walk in without permission. Just as he was thinking about it, Leng Buding's little boy's voice rang out: "Who are you looking for?" ”
I turned my head and saw a small figure standing up to my waist standing coldly in the threshold and looking at me. Alone
Strange, there are still such short people in the world? Although the little boy was small, his flesh and bones were even, he was wearing an apricot-colored robe, with a double bun on his head and an apricot yellow silk ribbon, and he looked completely fourteen or fifteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, but his eyes were a little cold and scary.
Is it, a dwarf?
Although I was startled, I still smiled and said: "The little woman is not a bad person, because she was lost and couldn't find her home, I found out that the back door of your mansion leads to Ziyuchai Street, so I want to ask you to make it convenient and let the little woman borrow the road home in your house." ”
"You want to go to Purple Jade Hairpin Street?" The little boy smiled imperceptibly: "Yes, that's right, my master wants to come to the house with a kind heart, and he won't be embarrassed by ordinary people, so he will invite the girl in, the girl is also here, and it's not too late to drink tea and go." ”
I waved my hand again and again and said: "Borrowing the road has already caused trouble to your house, so the tea will not bother, and Mei Cai will be satisfied." ”
The little boy smiled and said: "Why should the girl be so polite, pass through the door and not enter, my master will know, and he will punish the little one for not knowing the etiquette and neglecting the guests." If the girl cherishes the small one, she must enter with the small one and say hello to my master. ”
I thought to myself, borrowing the way from others, and not greeting the master, it was indeed rude, and I hurriedly said: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey the order, and disturb." ”
When the little boy heard this, he smiled happily and said continuously: "Yes, the girl is polite." ”
So he took me straight inside. The cycle of rebirth
Crossing the high threshold, inside is a vast courtyard paved with blue bricks, pavilions and pavilions, flowers and trees, but similar to other rich houses in the capital, but it is very lonely, and there are no other child servants.
I had the courage to ask, "This little brother, why don't you see anyone else in the family?" ”
The boy replied, "This is the front house, guarded, and we have only been active in the back garden." ”
I nodded busily and watched the scenery around, but I didn't know what was wrong, maybe the place was remote and there were not many guests, so there was no gatekeeper here.
Walk in, through the shadow wall, only to see that there is a multiple courtyard inside, surrounded by the word "back", a lot of side doors, really a labyrinth, live here, I don't know how long it will take to get familiar with the distance, come in alone, I'm afraid I can't get out.
The little boy walked in front diligently, although he was small, his legs and feet were very sharp, and led me along the path, into a side door, which was a hall, the hall was very large, but it was as big as a threshing field, and the sides were densely packed, and countless doors were opened.
The little boy asked me to sit on a Huanghuali chair, poured a cup of tea, and said with a smile: "Girl, wait a while, the little one will inform the master, and ask the girl not to be impatient." ”
I nodded my head in thanks, and the little boy hurried through a door and disappeared.
I hadn't picked up the bowl until I heard a voice from behind me: "Who is this?" Before I could answer, another voice replied, "I don't know, not a local." ”
I hurriedly turned around, but the hall was empty, and there was no one.
