Chapter 255: Countless Rooms
When my father was about to walk to the door of the main hall with Wang Sihe in his arms, he couldn't help but glance at the place where the two of them were hiding just now. At this time, my father suddenly felt as if there was nothing in that place, that is, the arms and thighs that I saw just now, as if they had never existed at all, turned his head and looked at the two bull heads and horses at the entrance of the main hall, and simply the two goods were still standing there, but they were still motionless with the two stone statues of the pestle there, my father moved his eyes forward again, and looked at the two fronts of the bull head and horse face, and saw that the place where he had just thrown the "dead roots" and fell was actually clean, and the fragments of the "dead roots" that were scattered were actually gone.
What does that mean?
My father stopped, stunned, turned his head to look at the place where he was hiding, and then at the place in front of the bull and horse, and said, "Where are all those arms and thighs?" Disappeared all at once? Or has it never been there?
My father didn't continue to walk towards the main hall, but helped Wang Sihe to turn around and walk towards the place where they had just hidden, and my father wanted to take a closer look at those arms and legs.
Wang Sihe calmed down a lot at this time, and after walking a few steps, he saw that my father was helping him and was about to go to the place where they were hiding just now, so he retreated back with palpitations, "Brother, what are we going to do there." ”
My father dragged him and said to him, "Don't be afraid, the arms and thighs we saw just now may be made of clay, think about it, if it weren't for clay, those arms and legs would have broken if they were thrown on the ground." ”
Wang Sihe was stunned when he heard this, my father's words seemed to wake him up, turned his head to look at my father, and said, "You're right, brother, why will your arms and legs be broken if you throw them on the ground?" After speaking, the fear on his face gradually faded, and immediately after, Wang Sihe pushed away my father's hand and walked straight towards the place where the two people were hiding. My father reckons he's trying to figure it out at this point.
However, Wang Sihe stopped after walking a few steps, and turned his head back to look at my father. Seeing that his face changed greatly, my father followed suit, his lips trembled a few times, and he said in a trembling voice: "Brother, then, those arms and legs, what, why are they not there?" ”
My father walked over in a few steps, and he just helped Wang Sihe to come here, just to know why those arms and legs were gone. My father looked down at the ground, and it was clean, and the arms and legs he had just seen seemed to have never appeared, and they were extremely weird!
Wang Sihe lost his confidence at this time, his face was even more ugly than when he saw those arms and legs just now, his eyes glanced at the door, and it seemed that he wanted to run to the gate again.
For these strange things in front of him, my father was also shocked and scared at this time, but my father knew in his heart that he couldn't show his cowardice in front of Wang Sihe now, if he was also cowardly, Wang Sihe would immediately lose his backbone, which could only cause the two of them to become more and more afraid, and finally run around like two headless flies.
My father stepped forward again and grabbed Wang Sihe, cheered him up and said: "Sihe, there's nothing to make a fuss about, this place is already weird, but what if something strange happens to it, you say, who have we been afraid of since we were children, which one provoked us, not to beat us all over the street." ”
Wang Sihe heard my father say this, and seeing my father's firm expression, he seemed to calm down a little, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said: "Brother, what you said is right, our brothers have fought wolves in the mountains and Red Guards in Beijing, who else can we be afraid of, what is this!" ”
My father smiled, "That's right, our grandfather said that brothers work together, and their profits break gold!" ”
Wang Sihe nodded in agreement.
After the morale of the two people was boosted, the two of them left these strange things without a head and walked towards the main hall. At this time, the door of the main hall was closed, and the two bulls and horses were still at the door like two mallets.
When I came to the door of the main hall, my father didn't rush to push the door, and curiously glanced at the bull-headed horses on both sides.
These two goods, the length is really terrifying, the human body and the head of the animal, and the two guys in their hands, just like the real thing, the two steel forks, bright and shining, look very sharp; The iron chain, jet black, looked very weighty, and it was estimated that the bones and tendons were broken when it smashed into the body.
My father took a closer look, and there was still hair on the head of the bull, which was a black bull's head, and the hairs were black and shiny, and they looked like the real thing, and then they looked at the face of the horse, and the eyes of the two big donkeys, watery, if the eyelids could blink twice, it really made people think it was a living thing.
At this time, Wang Sihe had the courage to touch the steel fork in Ma Mian's hand, and as soon as his hand touched the fork blade, he was full of excitement, withdrew his hand and turned his head to my father and said, "Brother, this, this guy is a real guy in his hand!" ”
"Won't it?"
"Why can't you ......" Wang Sihe spread his hand, and my father looked at his hand, three fingers made three small cuts, gurgling out.
My father immediately showed a look of disbelief, walked up to the bull head, tried to check the iron chain in the bull head's hand, and pressed his hand, and there was a loud sound of iron colliding, this iron chain is also a real guy, and then look at the clothes on these two guys, it seems to be true, at this time to insist that these two guys are stone statues, then it really can't be said.
My father and Wang Sihe, you look at me, I look at you, look at each other.
At this moment, the door of the palace suddenly made a "squeak", which startled my father and Wang Sihe. Immediately after, the two ancient and heavy temple doors opened up little by little, as if they were opened by an inexplicable force, and when my father and Wang Sihe saw this, their hearts suddenly beat faster, and their bodies were terrified.
After a pause, the doors of the hall opened completely, and my father glanced inside the hall with his heart pounding.
I saw that this hall is really not a big hall, there is actually a corridor inside, it is more than two meters wide, both sides are full of high walls of wooden structure, above is a semicircular vault, the corridor is like a brother tube building, every few steps there are two symmetrical doors, those doors are symmetrically extended one by one, causing the corridor to look deep and narrow, as if there is no end.
My father and Wang Sihe didn't expect it, and the two of them looked at each other again. My father took out his pocket watch and saw that it was already half past ten, so he hurriedly pulled Wang Sihe and said, "The old woman's room may be here, let's go in and find it." ”
Wang Sihe turned his face bitter and said, "How can you find so many doors?" ”
"Find ...... one by one"
As they spoke, the two of them walked into the main hall, and to be exact, stepped through the door of the main hall into the corridor.
After a few steps, the two of them stopped in front of the first symmetrical door, looked left and right, and the wooden door was exactly the same, and my father cheered himself up, put his hand on the door on the right, and gently pushed it......
The door creaked open, but this time there was no vision, and the two men were still standing in the hallway, and the light in front of them was still dim and uncertain.
Standing at the door and shouting twice, no one answered, presumably no one in the room, my father walked in with his feet up. The first thing that catches your eye is a table and a round stool, and when you look around, the room is very small, like a small ear room, in addition to a table and a round stool, there is a dresser and a wooden bed covered with quilts and mattresses and hanging bed nets.
I don't know who would live in such a big house, and besides, my father didn't have time to think about it, so he walked to the side of the bed in a few steps, leaned down and lifted the hanging sheets, and glanced under the bed. And under the bed, it was empty, and there was nothing.
My father stood up and turned back to Wang Sihe and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the house on the left." ”
The two men then left the room on the right and pushed open the door to the room on the left side of the hallway. When I went in, the room was almost the same as the one on the right, except that there was a dresser missing, and my father walked to the bed again, opened the list and looked under the bed, but it was still empty.
Immediately afterward, my father and Wang Sihe walked a few more steps down the corridor to the second symmetrical door, and pushed open the door on the right first. This house is exactly the same as the one on the right before, and there is also a dresser in the room, but there is still nothing under the bed, and then I returned to the hallway, and pushed open the door on the left to see, this is exactly the same as the one on the left just now, and there is also a dresser missing in it, and there is still no baggage under the bed.
Next, the two of them went deeper into the corridor and searched for a few more rooms on the left and right, although they could not find the baggage, but at this time, they found that the house on the right had an extra dresser than the house on the left. Wang Sihe said: "The houses on the right look like they are for women, and the houses on the left look like they are for men. ”
My father nodded, what Wang Sihe said was very reasonable, the man's room does not need a dresser, and the room on the left side of the corridor has no dresser, indicating that it is the room where the man lives. At this time, time is running out, the corridors seem endless, and there are countless rooms, when will this be found? My father was anxious, and finally discussed with Wang Sihe, and the two of them searched separately, my father specifically looked for the right, and Wang Sihe specifically looked for the left.
After looking for more than ten rooms, my father thought about it, it was not possible to find it this way, I had to think of a faster way, since the old woman was a woman, if there was her house here, it must be on the right side of the corridor, so he beckoned Wang Sihe again, don't go to the left to look for it, specifically look for these rooms on the right.
The two of them divided the labor again, my father looked for one, Wang Sihe found one, and the two of them looked forward for the first time next to each other, which undoubtedly shortened the time.
I don't know how many more doors I have found, the corridor has already given them the two ends of the walk, and they are cold and confused, looking at both ends are exactly the same. But even so, they never found a place under the bed in these rooms.
One door after another, my father and I felt mentally fatigued. After finding another room, I came out of the door and stood in the corridor, my father took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and when he saw it, cold sweat broke out, and there were only ten minutes left before the third watch, and I am afraid that even if he found the baggage, he would not be able to get out at this time.
Wang Sihe walked out of the back door at this time, his face was pale, and he looked dizzy. My father hurriedly put it in his arms.
Wang Sihe walked over to my father with a pale face, looked at each other's hands, and hoped that the other party would have something more in their hands. At this time, Wang Sihe said coldly, "Brother, have you noticed it, there seem to be words on the top of this door." ”
When my father heard this, he hurriedly looked at the door of the room he had just come out of, and sure enough, there were words, and these words could be understood, and my father hurriedly walked to the other doors to see, and there were words on the top of these doors, some of which were two-character, some of which were of two characters, some of which were of four characters.
My father looked at these words, and said to himself: "These seem to be names...... instantly, my father suddenly realized, and said to Wang Sihe: "Don't look for it one by one, just look for the 'four girls' written on the top of the door." ”
Wang Sihe obeyed my father's words at this time, and the two of them no longer entered the room to look for them one by one, and looked at the names on the top of the door in the corridor. It's a lot easier to find now.
It only took two or three minutes for Wang Sihe to finally shout, "Find it!" ”
When my father walked over and looked, he saw that it was written on the top of the door: "Four girls!"
But at this point, time is running out......
