Chapter 9: The Trap
The three of us quietly walked out of the second grave, before dawn. In the same way, we quietly returned to the house. Settle Lisa in the attic for the time being, and wait until dawn. When we got back to bed, we were all exhausted, and after a while, we fell asleep......
By the time we woke up, it was close to noon the next day, and we were woken up by the noise downstairs.
As soon as I looked at my watch, it was all over the place, and I quickly got up. When I went to the attic, Lisa was already up. Moreover, I have already packed the contents of my aunt's red box and put them all in my backpack.
It's not a problem for Lisa to keep it hidden. The three of us came up with a solution: let Lisa come from outside, and pretend to be an old classmate to come to me.
The old ghost and I slowly tied Lisa downstairs through the window. Then I went downstairs with the old ghost to see who was coming?
Before I got downstairs, I heard a familiar voice: "Hello, my name is Addams, and I am Fang Yu's old classmate." When I got a call from him, I came to play with him. β
The uncle said, "Oh, Xiaoyu's classmates, welcome, welcome." β
As soon as I heard from the old ghost that it was Adams' grandson, I hurriedly ran downstairs.
"Hey, Adams!"
As soon as Adams saw us, he burst into a chord of joy:
"Hey, rain! Hey, ghost! With that, he gave each of us a hug.
Adams was accompanied by a woman named Pamela. My first impression of this woman was a little strange: she was unusually pale, wearing a hood, and not smiling. I thought to myself, maybe it's a little strange to us.
After a while, my uncle saw that we were all old classmates, so he asked me to treat this as my own home, and we were free to move around on our own, and he and my aunt went to prepare lunch for us.
At this time, there was another knock on the door, and when my uncle went to open the door, it was Wu Lisha. I smiled knowingly with the old ghost, this dare is good, it's all gathered. βlisaοΌβ Adams greeted immediately.
After lunch, my aunt said, "Since Xiaoyu has so many old classmates, let's have a small party in the evening." β
As soon as Adams heard that there was a party, he immediately approved of it a hundred. But I thought about getting my things and quickly got out to find Duoduo. Then he said to the woman, "Auntie, we have some trivial matters to go out in the afternoon, and we may have to come back later in the evening." β
When Adams heard me say this, he immediately became reluctant, and hurriedly said, "Just let me go when you came, why are you in such a hurry?" β
The old ghost glanced at Adams and motioned for him not to say more. Adams immediately understood, and was silent.
"You guys, if you have something to do, go and get busy, I'll prepare it at home with your aunt." When my uncle heard me say that something was wrong, he thought for a moment and said, "Do me a favor before you go." β
"If you have something, you will command." I say.
"I have a private wine cellar in my basement with a good collection of decades-old wines. You go down and help me carry them up, and we'll have a drink tonight!" My uncle said proudly, "By the way, let me let you also visit my personal wine collection." β
When Adams heard it, it was a party and a drink, and he shouted long live. I listened to the old ghost, but I muttered in my heart. Stay in this minute longer, and the more dangerous it will be. hurriedly "cheered" and said, "Uncle, you are really generous!" Thank you. β
Uncle said again and again that as a host, he should be hospitable. With that, he led us to the basement. I, the old ghost, and Lisa Wu all carried their backpacks, and Adams didn't bring anything with him when he came, only Pamela carried a black schoolbag on her back.
My aunt didn't mean to go down, she just looked at us with a smile. I don't know why, but when I see this woman, I always feel a little uneasy.
The five of us walked with my uncle to the basement. For the sake of safety, the old ghost and I kept an eye on it and deliberately let my uncle go ahead. I was next, then Lisa, Pamela, Adams, and the old ghost. In this order, we went down.
But just as our group entered the basement, the entrance upstairs "boomed" and closed!
The sound startled us and we immediately looked back. The old ghost shouted, "Not good! β
I immediately sensed that something was wrong and tried to catch my uncle in front of me, but it was too late. When the "uncle" heard the sound of the door closing, he ran away. By the time I could react, he had already run several meters. It only took a second to disappear into the darkness. Immediately afterwards, there was another "boom", and a stone gate fell to the ground.
I quickly took out my flashlight and shone it, and a heavy stone door had just fallen in front of me, and there was dust rising around it. We tried our best to prevent it, but we were still calculated. At first, I thought that as long as my uncle was ahead of us, I wouldn't worry about what he could do to us. Unexpectedly, there is a door in the basement that can be entered. The old ghost and I were annoyed, and if we had known, we would have let him be in the middle.
Now, I can find my own way out. Among our group, me, the old ghost, and Wu Lisha were all mentally prepared in advance, so we didn't feel too surprised. Pamela was still expressionless, and the one who was most afraid was Adams, and he exclaimed, "Didn't you say to see red wine?" How do you trap us here? β
Adams was even more anxious when he saw that no one answered him. He asked me, "Fang Yu, you say, what's going on?" Why are you trapped here? β
I said to Adams, "Calm down! Don't you see that we are also victims? β
When Adams saw everyone's reaction, he was silent. There were five of us, and we weren't particularly scared.
After a brief discussion, they went separately to find an exit. I was in a group with the old ghost, with a flashlight; Lisa is in a group with Adams and Pamela, lighting candles. The candle had been turned out of my aunt's box and was now in handy.
It's like a dungeon, like the murderous madness in the movies, dark and dark. I looked around, but I didn't find any lighting equipment, not even a light bulb overhead.
Turning back to see the entrance we came in, it was a stone gate. Judging from the sound of percussion, it is extremely heavy. If you want to smash it open or move away, it's basically impossible. The same is true of the door from which Edward left.
We fell into the desperate situation of "calling the heavens and the earth not working", and suddenly felt extremely depressed. Could it be that you will confess for the rest of your life? When everyone was at a loss, Adams, who was still very noisy just now, was silent, as if thinking about something. I asked, "Adams, what are you thinking?" β
Adams thought for a moment and said, "I think I've seen this environment somewhere. β
"What? Have you been here? As soon as the old ghost heard that he had seen it, he felt as if there was a way out, and hurriedly asked, "Then can you find the exit?" β
Adams said, "I've never been here, but this scene is familiar." Where have you seen it? β
The old ghost was suddenly deflated again, and just wanted to open his mouth to ask him again. I hurriedly made a silencing gesture and motioned for him not to make a noise and for Adams to think about it.
"I remembered!" Adams thought for a moment and said suddenly.
As soon as we heard the answer, we became excited, waiting for Adams to reveal the answer.
"In the game!" Adams said.
"Cut~~!" Adams' answer was immediately greeted with boos, and everyone dispersed again, what the is this called.
Seeing that we were all scattered and ignoring him, Adams hurriedly shouted, "Listen to me, this kind of castle is a kind of William's castle, and the whole design is Gothic. Spires, arches, arched windows, bell towers, attics, and thick walls. β
A few of us, listen to him and the head is the word. I went back and listened to him continue: "If it's a little more complicated, there's a moat. There is only one drawbridge at the gate of the city, which is the only access to the outside. However, your aunt's fort, with its back to the sea, does not need a moat. It has doors on both sides, and doors and windows on the side facing the sea. β
After he reminded me like this, I thought about it, and it really is! He nodded at Adams. At the time, I was still thinking, what kind of design is this, how can there be doors on both sides? Which side is positive?
Adams went on to say, "There are two sides to this kind of architecture. Once upon a time, it was possible to interact with people on land on the shore side; On the sea side, foreign trade is possible. However, if there is a war, you will be attacked from front to back, and you will be attacked from the back of the enemy. This kind of castle is the most popular and convenient for pirates. There are also those tycoons, who buy them and secretly do some shady things. Your uncle's fabit*ch (*son) is certainly not a good thing either! β
I agree with that, but my uncle doesn't have to.
At this time, the old ghost was in a hurry, and he was not in the mood to listen to his history, so he scolded: "Say the point!" What does this have to do with us? β
Adams originally wanted to talk about it, but when the old ghost said this, he was simplified. "This kind of castle, which often appears in one of my favorite scavenger hunts, usually has a basement, that is, an underground passage. Because it extends in all directions, there are doors everywhere, and the scene in each door is different! Some lead to undercurrents, which are extremely dangerous; Some lead to hidden treasure lands, and gold and silver mountains are not a problem. However, each gate has a level to enter, and you must crack the level code to enter.
The design of this game scene is inspired by reality. So, let's look together to see if there are any words, reliefs, or secret passages around. As long as there is, it must be connected to the passage. β
As soon as Adams said this, we immediately split up. Take a flashlight and a candle and look for it on the surrounding walls and floors. I played a flashlight with the old ghost, looked around, and found nothing.
At this time, I heard Lisa shouting: "There really is!" β
