Volume 2 Tales of the Night Chapter 30 The Phantom of the Castle (I)

From a distance, the castle was overgrown with weeds, and the black-painted walls were covered with vines, like the arms of demons. The castle is old, full of Gothic architecture, with tall ribbed vaults. However, the windows here are very narrow, and the narrow windows contrast strongly with the vast space inside, making the interior of the castle dimly lit and dark.

The castle is surrounded by a low wall, and within the walls is a vast inner courtyard with beautiful flowers such as tulips, roses, and irises, which is completely different from the eerie style of the castle.

The convoy drove into the inner courtyard of the castle, and Bai Ye stopped in a small square with a good location, and told the soldiers: "Stay here tonight, and if anyone dares to storm the camp, whoever it is, kill them on the spot!" ”

"Yes!" The soldiers responded in unison.

"In addition, Macron, Li Bin, Liang Yu, although you are evolutionaries, I don't force you to risk your lives with me, and if you are not afraid of death, you will voluntarily follow me in."

The three of them ignored each other and said in unison: "Captain, we are all willing to follow you!" ”

Bai Ye looked at them in surprise, and his heart was very relieved. He thought about it carefully and said: "Li Bin, don't follow, your ability is not suitable for dealing with these ghostly things, and the defense is insufficient, let's stay and lead the team, protect our team, no one knows if there are other evolutionaries hidden in that group of townspeople, in case someone comes to attack us, let them know how powerful you are!" When Bai Ye said these words, he didn't shy away from Monica at all, and he also meant to warn her.

Li Bin nodded solemnly and said, "Captain, don't worry!" ”

Bai Ye looked back at the closed gate of the ancient castle and said, "Let's go, let's go in and have a look!" ”

However, when Bai Ye approached the gate, it was like being refracted by a mirror, and he came back out. There is also the power of mirror space here! Bai Ye looked at Monica suspiciously, Monica spread her arms and said: "I don't know why this is happening, since I found out that this castle will devour people, no one has taken the initiative to enter, every day after dark, the gate will automatically open, and then people will walk in by themselves as if they are controlled, and after thirty people enter, the gate will be closed." ”

Bai Ye thought for a while and said, "Then wait a little longer, it's going to be dark anyway." ”

So White Night took everyone to sit down and rest, the sky gradually darkened, more and more townspeople rushed to the castle, they seemed to have long been accustomed to spending the night in the courtyard, some people took the initiative to disperse to all corners of the courtyard, but there were also some people led by Beverly, the top hat man, gathered into a group, some people still had guns in their hands, staring at White Night's team with unkind faces.

Finally, it was completely dark, and all the people in the town were gathered here, more than a thousand people. For a town, this is a pitiful small number of people, but for a castle courtyard, despite its size, it still feels crowded.

In the darkness, everyone was shivering. At this time, there was a sudden rustling sound in the town, and Bai Ye stood up, climbed to a high place, opened his vertical pupils and looked around, only to see that in the darkness, countless insects crawled out of the ground and all the dark places, surrounding the whole castle, but there seemed to be an invisible wall around the castle, blocking them out.

Bai Ye snorted coldly, and took out a flamethrower to clean up the disgusting insects, but at this moment, a piercing "creak" sound came, and I saw the gate of the castle slowly open, and a deep shadow poured out of the door, like flowing water, obscuring people's vision.

Seeing this, Bai Ye dispelled the idea of looking for insects, pointed out all the evolutionaries, and said, "Are you ready?" Let's go in! ”

There are a total of nine evolutionary people, namely Bai Ye, Feng Hua, Donglai Muzhi, Ji Yunfei, Chen Qian, Han Xue, Macron, Liang Yu and Monica, plus the twenty-one black-clothed bandits in the second group, exactly thirty people. As for a group of fighters, Bai Ye didn't want them to participate in this kind of battle where they couldn't use their means of attack and could only be cannon fodder.

Under the scorching gaze of Donglai Muzhi, the people in black reluctantly lined up and walked towards the castle, and at the last moment of entering the castle, a man in black suddenly collapsed and shouted: "I don't want to send you to death!" So saying, he turned around and fled.

Donglai Muzhi sighed regretfully, as soon as the breath fell, the man suddenly howled miserably, green smoke rose from his facial features, and the person wailed and rolled on the ground in pain, the pain from the soul shocked all the people in black again, and also scared the townspeople in the distance enough.

After a while, the holy flame erupted from his body, burning his entire body to ashes. "For you, I am the voice of the Lord, and if I disobey me, I am disrespectful to the Lord, even if I don't want to hurt you, the Lord will send down the holy fire to purify your souls." If you don't go in, even if I and Captain White Night don't punish you, you will be burned to death by the Lord. ”

When the other men in black heard this, they immediately quickened their pace, ran and rushed into the castle, and Bai Ye said to Monica: "There is one less person this time, so I have to come out of your people." ”

Monica exclaimed, "No way, no one will want to go in but me." ”

Bai Ye said disdainfully: "Who said that he was needed to agree?" After saying that, a flash appeared in front of Beverly, the man in the top hat, and Beverly was shocked and screamed, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Of course, you want to come with me."

"Don't you still have so many men? Let them go, I won't go! ”

Bai Ye sneered: "Who goes and who doesn't, is it up to you?" With that, he grabbed him by the throat with one hand and lifted him high.

One of Beverly's townsfolk unknowingly raised a shotgun to shoot at the white night. However, before he could pull the trigger, the gun had been snatched in Bai Ye's hand at some point, and with a hard break, the barrel was folded into a "V" shape! The townsfolk were stunned, and White Night had already grabbed the gunman and threw him into the castle gates with a flick. Then he said to the last man in black: "You don't have to go in, find a replacement!" ”

The man in black wept with joy, thanked him and ran back to the convoy.

At this time, the townspeople knew that it was powerful, and one by one they were frightened, and they rushed to the side, and Bai Ye snorted coldly, dragging Beverly into the castle.

The rest of the evolutionaries followed in the footsteps of the white night and stepped into the deep shadows. Even Monica didn't say anything, and seemed to approve of Hakuya's approach.

Entering the gate, there is a vast palace-like hall, to everyone's surprise, the interior of the castle is not at all as gloomy as its appearance, on the contrary, the inside is brightly lit, resplendent and brilliant, and the source of the light is all retro-style lamps that burn lamp oil, and it is surprising and creepy that the lamps in the lamps have long been burned out, but these lamps are not extinguished, but bloom brighter.

The interior of the entire castle is a huge palace complex, completely Western-style, with high domes, huge columns, and gold as the main color throughout, and rows of oil paintings hanging on the walls, and even several world famous works have been found in them, of course, they should be imitations.

The huge palace is very neat, and the golden marble floor is spotless, and everyone's face can be clearly reflected. However, instead of admiring the majestic palace, the crowd carefully searched for the enemy who did not know where to exist. But even Bai Ye didn't notice that when everyone's eyes stopped looking at the ground, the images they reflected on the ground were all smiling weirdly!

When someone unintentionally refocuses on their own images, those images become exactly the same as the deity, as if the scene was just an illusion.

In front of the hall, there is a carved ancient mirror more than one person high, the frame is made of black alder, which looks very noble and elegant, and on the wall behind the mirror, there is an oil painting depicting the war of ancient kings.

When Monica saw the mirror, she hurried to the mirror and exclaimed, "Something is wrong, I've been here a lot before, I've never seen this mirror!" ”

Feng Hua comforted her and said, "Don't panic, this castle is so big, maybe this mirror was originally placed in other rooms that you didn't pay attention to, and it was moved by someone else." ”

Monica shook her head and said, "No way, I have been brought here by my father since I was a child, and I am familiar with every room here, and it is impossible for me not to be impressed by a mirror like this that can be used as an antique collection!" ”

Bai Ye also walked to the mirror, looked up and down carefully, and even opened the Shadow Pupil, but still did not find a trace of suspicion.

Bai Ye was fascinated by it, and did not notice that under the illumination of the oil lamp, his shadow was projected on the wall, and from his shadow, a cloud of shadows broke away and melted into the wall.

In the oil painting of the war of kings, the majestic king suddenly came to life, and quietly turned his head in the blind corner of everyone's eyes, and stared at the white night with a cruel smile.

Bai Ye suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he suddenly looked up, but what he saw was only an ancient and precious oil painting, and the characters in the painting were all lifelike.

All the oil paintings hung quietly on the wall, and there was nothing unusual at all, Bai Ye frowned, and looked around carefully, but still found nothing, so he turned around and looked in other directions. But at the moment when he turned around, the eyes of the king on the oil painting behind him slowly turned, and his gaze fell on him again.

Xiao Ke's heart suddenly flashed a trace of inexplicable palpitations, he pondered for a moment, and turned his head sharply, but there was still no clue!

The ordinary people in the team, since they entered the hall, they were all trembling, and the twenty black-clothed people followed Donglai Muzhi step by step, for fear that there would be a little disobedience to his wishes, and at present, it seems that Donglai Muzhi can make them more afraid than any demons and monsters.

Beverly and the other townsfolk were terrified, and they didn't dare to approach the White Night, nor did they dare to get too far away from the group, and carefully stood against the wall, trying to keep a safe distance from the group.
