Chapter 54: The Stone Wall

Angus's pretending to be a ghost failed for the first time today, he didn't expect that the small church that had been blocked by boulders would be broken into the door - under normal circumstances, there would be no crane or a few kilograms**Who can handle that pile of stones, and the strange wolf girl who came out halfway completely disrupted Angus's plan. In his panic, he didn't see who opened the door of the chapel, and at that time, in order not to expose himself, he had no intention of turning on the miner's lamp to look at the door, and when Lily moved the first stone, the alert innkeeper entered the underground through the tunnel, and considering that the tunnel might be discovered, he did not stay where he was, but moved directly to the outside of the castle according to the route in his memory.

But the originally unobstructed underground passage had an extra stone wall at some point, blocking him.

"You said it was originally connected?" Hao Ren felt a little surprised when he heard Angus finish talking about the situation, "Are you sure you remember the wrong way?" ”

"I've walked this road many times, it's impossible to remember wrong," Angus had been in a state of panic before, and after talking to the "ghost" in the black fog for a long time, he finally came back to his senses and felt that something was wrong, "Eh, aren't you the undead of the castle?" Why don't you know what's going on? ”

"It's none of your business, you just let me come from the cemetery next door, and don't allow the undead to have a private life," Hao Ren said casually, "So, the hauntings here are all about you acting?" ”

"Ah...... Yes," Angus secretly looked at the wriggling black mist in front of him from the pillar of light of the miner's lamp, for the first time in his life, he saw the real "undead", he felt that the other party was not the same as the ghost he had imagined before, "I really didn't want to disturb the heroic spirits below, I just borrowed the ruins above, there is no bad intention-people often do this in this era, it is not a bad thing to use cultural relics and monuments to make money, and from another angle, I may be able to give this castle a chance to be renovated......"

"Can you really say," Hao Ren felt that the innkeeper's brain was really good, worthy of someone who could make big news, he turned to Vivian beside him and lowered his voice, "Then what to do?" What to do with this fat uncle? ”

"You're done?" Vivien confirmed, then raised her hand to Angus not far away, "That's it." ”

A faint red light split out of the black fog and sank into Angus's body in the blink of an eye, and the other party fell to the ground without saying a word.

Hao Ren suddenly jumped up: "Eh, I just said how to send him away, and I didn't let you kill ......"

"I just stunned him temporarily," Vivien gave Hao Ren a strange look, "What do you think, you watched the vampire movie again last night?" I told you that the stuff was too misleading and tried to avoid it. ”

Hao Ren was speechless, glanced at the fat uncle lying on the ground, and felt that it was not a matter of putting people in this place, so he waved his hand and beckoned Lily to come over: "You send him up and find a safe place." Oh, pay attention to the movements of those 'ghost catching experts'. ”

"Okay!" Lily nodded in agreement, stepped forward and gently picked up Angus, and ran away with a smoke.

Hao Ren looked at the direction Lily left and shook his head with a smile: "This is really ...... That's what happened for a long time? This fat boss is also creative enough. ”

Although Angus pretended to be a ghost and tricked a lot of people, Hao Ren didn't complain much about it, after all, this is not much of a sin, and there are bigger gimmicks in various tourist attraction theme parks this year, Angus This is not enough to see, Hao Ren just feels that the whole thing is a little speechless, and the boiling castle haunting incident turned out to be just a fat hotel owner patting his head to come up with an idea to attract customers, and it has lasted for so many days and no one has discovered the mystery, which is ...... I really responded to the sentence: life is so TM fun, because life is always playing with people!

Of course, Angus's method of pretending to be a god and a ghost will inevitably not last, and there are more and more supernatural enthusiasts who come over to join in the fun, and there may be a great god or a retired expert and scholar from the "Approaching Science" column group in the middle, and sooner or later the hotel owner's trick will not work one day, Hao Ren can see that the fat boss is purely "completely unstoppable" rhythm, and the haunting of the castle has brought him a rolling source of customers, and it doesn't seem to be revealed for a while, Even the TV station column team is pushing him behind for the sake of ratings, how can he stop? Haunted events can only be staged once in a while.

Sooner or later, it will be exposedβ€”don't you think it will be revealed today?

"Pretending to be a ghost...... "Well," Vivien turned noncommittally, curiously studying the stone wall that stood in front of the tunnel, "The strange sights that people see on the ground may be a cover-up, but here's ...... But there is something real. ”

Hao Ren suddenly remembered his business, and remembered that the situation of this stone wall had not been explained clearly, and he was also curious: "The fat boss should not be lying, this stone wall appeared suddenly-where did it come from?" ”

"Not the part of the roof that fell from above," Vivien pointed to some marks on the stone wall, "the scratch, it must have slipped down from the side not long ago, it's a structure designed to start in time needed to plug the way." ”

Hao Ren was just about to say something, when he heard a sound of swishing footsteps coming from behind, and turned his head to see that it was Lily. The wolf lady came back all the way, and as soon as they met, she happily reported to work: "I sent the fat boss up!" And those ghost-hunting experts seem to have withdrawn too! ”

"They're gone?" Vivien was surprised, but then suddenly, "Oh yes, the 'supernatural phenomenon' is over, they should have been walking around the ruins of the castle for a long time without finding anything, after all, they are not professional witchers, just a group of enthusiasts." ”

"Then you left the fat uncle alone in the wilderness?" Hao Ren looked at the werewolf girl who lacked a string in her brain, "There are no beasts out there, right?" ”

"It's okay, he was about to wake up in a daze when I sent the fat boss to the top, so I threw him into the car of an old man who was tearing down the tent, and he should follow the tent back to town at this time," Lily turned into a werewolf form and wagged her tail vigorously, "Don't worry, landlord, no one will find me, I come and go like the wind!" And the magic of this bat is really unreliable, it's only been a few minutes, and the person is about to wake up. ”

Vivien immediately defended herself: "It's more mysterious than your bricks, right?" And I deliberately suppressed the effect of the spell to be like this, otherwise I would accidentally let people fall asleep, do you know how difficult it is to control it so precisely? ”

Hao Ren looked at Lily's tail, and said in his heart that it doesn't matter if it comes and goes like the wind for the time being, at least this tail is really fanning the wind, and the werewolf girl is dusty behind her.

"Angus won't talk nonsense when he goes back, will he?" Hao Ren muttered a little uneasily, and Vivian expressed disdain while studying the stone wall: "You're so worried, what does he say when he goes back has anything to do with us?" At best, a new set of haunted rumors came out, and he didn't see our faces...... Uh, I found something. ”

Hao Ren suddenly stopped paying attention to Angus's affairs, and hurried over to Vivian's side: "What? ”

"Here," Vivien said, gesturing to the top half of the stone wall, "see these letters and symbols?" ”

Hao Ren squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time: "Then it turned out to be letters?" I can't even see the edges and corners. Oh no, why doesn't it look like English? It's kind of like Egyptian......"

"It's not Egyptian, it's not English, it's not the language of humans," Vivien narrowed her eyes, her eyes flashing red, "This is the 'Leta Rune' used by witchers and the church, it first came from a very old witcher family, and later became an important means for the secret forces in the church to fight against the 'aliens', and ordinary people can also use this symbol Leta Rune's biggest feature, but as humanity grows stronger day by day, this rune slowly takes a back seat, and I haven't seen it in over two hundred years. ”

Hao Ren swallowed: "This thing...... What is it for? ”

He was aware of the strangeness of the castle, and knew that there were genuine undead underneath, so he was sure that the runes and the stone wall that had suddenly appeared were not here for decoration: they must have meant a lot.

"For the suppression of demons, demons, evil spirits, and 'evil things' with unclean power that cannot be destroyed," Vivien said, pointing to the lines of runes that have been almost corrupted by time, "This gate is blocked from the root of all evil, and the power of evil will not penetrate, and the moment this gate falls, all the guards will be evacuated." ”
