The castle leading to the hill has a specially provided path that leads to the castle's gates. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Dare to build a castle in the woods, which also shows the heroism and strength of the owner, the woods are full of ferocious beasts and unknown plants, and if you are not careful, you can die, and the degree of danger is not ordinary, because of this, mankind has not yet fully explored this vast, adventurous continent.

Count Arez is obviously a lord who shows his strength and heroism, as one of Duke Weikai's subordinates, he is timid and afraid, but he dares to do such a robbery, there must be something unspeakable in it.

"Harry, did you hear me clearly?" said Monshint, who was on the side, to Harry who was thinking.

"Uh-huh, yes, I see. Harry nodded again and again, looking at the dim woods around him, it was already completely dark at this time, if it weren't for the fact that Monshint held his finger with flames, illuminating a small part of the surrounding area, and the wind was not very strong today, otherwise they would have really felt the darkness and walked forward with difficulty.

"When you go in with me, just don't say anything, just follow me in, and leave everything to me. Seeing that Harry was listening attentively, Monshint didn't mind, and continued to talk about the relevant precautions, and the two were now walking on the path to the castle on the hill.

Looking at Monshent, who had said a lot of precautions, Harry felt that Monshent was really an elusive guy, fierce and irritable all at once, and friendly after a while, so that Harry couldn't tell which one was the real him, could it be a split personality? However, it was obvious that Monshente in this gentle state was really good, at least he wouldn't punch or kick Harry.

"What's wrong? what are you staring at me, is there anything on my face?" asked Monshint, who saw Harry looking at him, curiously.

"There's nothing on your face, I just feel like you're suddenly like this, and it's just a little uncomfortable for me. Harry explained.

“... I'm sorry. For a long time, Monshint held back such a sentence.

Harry was a little embarrassed by this, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by Monshent's boos.

Not far in front of them suddenly appeared a subtle light, the subtle as if it was fleeting, the kind that would be extinguished if they didn't notice it, the closer the two walked, the brighter the light became, and finally they saw the road like a fork in the road, with tall woods standing on both sides, and a slope that went up to the castle on the hill, where there were tall knights guarded, swords hanging from their waists, they sat around the burning bonfire, keeping warm, and in the woods at night, the temperature varied greatly.

"Yo, isn't this the little magician Monschent, what's the matter at such a late hour?, why did you bring someone with you?" the knights sitting around the campfire also saw Monshint coming in the distance, and said to Monshint teasingly.

"Luther, you're still guarding this place as usual, I'm here, of course, it's a little something, I don't know if I've ever seen my grandmother here. Monshint walked over with Harry, and said almost in a sloppy manner.

"Your grandmother, I don't remember exactly, you have to give me something to remember. One of the knights sat and looked at Monshint with a thoughtful look.

Monshint smiled, understood what he meant, and took a silver coin from his jacket pocket and threw it into his hand.

"Your grandmother was in the afternoon, I saw her, she walked up, and she hasn't come down yet, you can go up and see for yourself. The knight said greedily as he stroked the silver coin with his finger.

Monshint didn't say anything, and walked up with Harry.

"They are the knights who guard the castle leading to the hill, and they are really useless, just the waste that Count Arrizo has put out, knowing that if you make a sum of money from us, I can defeat them in a few rounds, useless. Monschent, who was walking on the slope, said to himself.

Soon, following this incomparably smooth shortcut, the two came to the gate of the castle at the top of the hill, where the great walls were illuminated by the burning torches around them, and the knights who were constantly patrolling back and forth on the high walls, and near the only gate leading to the interior, several knights sat at tables and drank lazily, until the people on the walls reminded them that they did not notice Monshint and them coming by.

"It turned out to be our magician, Lord Monshente, is there anything wrong with you?" said the slightly drunk knight after seeing who it was.

"This little bit of heart is my filial piety to you, I want to go in and find my grandmother, please. Monshant stepped forward and put three silver coins in his hand.

"Hehe, you kid understands things, your grandma can't wait, hurry up and go in." The slightly drunken knight grinned and took the silver coin into his arms and patted Monshant on the shoulder.

"Wait, who is this kid, I don't think I've seen it. The slightly drunk knight suddenly noticed Harry behind Monshint and asked suspiciously.

"He, I'm afraid of the dark, so I asked him to come with me. Monshint blushed slightly and said shyly.

"Haha, you kid is afraid of the dark. The slightly drunk knight laughed.

At this time, Monshant also led Harry through the open door quickly.

Instead of taking Harry into the castle, Monshant led Harry around the corridor outside the castle to the back garden, meeting some servants who greeted him along the way, and Monshant smiled and brought it, and Monshant knew where his grandmother must be waiting for him.

In a short time, Monshant was in the back garden, and it looked like he was roaming in a sea of colorful flowers, with chairs around the fountain in the middle of the flower, but there was no one.

Why aren't they there, where have they gone? Ask them, maybe they know something? With this in mind, Monchent inquired about the servant in one of the corridors, and got the news that Grandma seemed to be with the Count, and did not know what they were doing.

So Monschent and the others had no choice but to change direction, and walked back around the castle again, and came to the gate, and slipped through the crack that leaked through the door.

The spacious hall, with crystal chandeliers hanging from the central ceiling, is lined up in two rows, with intricately carved marble columns on either side of the red carpet, and in front of it is a staircase leading to the upper floor, but divided into two sides.

In fact, Monshant didn't know where Grandma was, and it would take a lot of time to find her together, so Monshant decided to split up with Harry, he went to the left side staircase, and Harry went to the right, and whoever wanted to find Grandma would take her to the door of the hall and wait for a meeting at the meeting.

Of course, Harry is also a little worried, after all, it's not good to break into other people's residences, this is the earl's home, although there are no patrols in the hall now, but who can guarantee that there will be no one going up, in case of being caught, this is a very troublesome thing, Harry said all this to Monschent, although Monshent is also worried about this, but he is willing to take a risk for his grandmother, even if he is caught, as long as he says that he is here to find his grandmother, they are also reasonable, they should not kill themselves.

Well, since Monshant said so, the helpless Harry can only let him mess around, after all, he is the fault of himself, and he has to finish crying, and now it is impossible to turn back, just be careful not to be caught by them.

Harry looked at the empty hall, he should have been glad that it was unguarded, but Harry had more doubts in his heart, from the outside to the inside, a busy time, Harry didn't just appreciate these buildings, he thought a lot.

According to common sense, there must be a garrison knight guarding the gate of each castle, and there must be a patrolling knight guard, but why is there no one, only a few servants, although the knights on the city wall can also see the situation inside, but their duty is not to take care of the inside, but to guard the situation outside, and the same is true when they enter the castle inside, there is no one, empty, such a large castle can not be done with only a few servants, and they are not the kind of Sister Kalia who can top a dozen people by one person, this knowledge is all Harry from the fairy tale books, although most of it cannot be believed, but a small part of the real life must be similar.

There are also those knights who guard, they are really too lazy, they don't have a knightly style at all, they seem to be unrestrained, they don't have a sense of crisis at all, as long as the enemy attacks, they will definitely be unable to break the army, and they will easily attack it.

Is this really the castle where the Count lives, doing that kind of thing, and being so leisurely, guarded and lazy, how confident he is that others will not attack it, everything is really too strange.
