Chapter 217: Shadows
The rain kept falling, sweeping everything in view.
It was getting darker.
Dark clouds as heavy as lead obscured the sky.
Thundered!
From time to time, white lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, tearing and rolling dark clouds brutally, making this strange and unpredictable mansion feel like falling into hell.
60% charge, 65% charge......
Dian Wei didn't know what time it was.
After all, after entering this anomalous area, time has been somewhat out of order.
Moreover, it was cloudy and rainy, and there was not even a sun in the sky, which made it even more impossible to judge what time it was, and I didn't even know whether it was morning or afternoon at the moment.
"The charging speed is 0.01% per second, and it takes at least 10,000 seconds to fully charge."
Dian Wei felt that the charging speed was obviously faster than before.
Perhaps it is because his physical strength has improved dramatically, and his physical strength has become stronger and more abundant.
75% charged, 80% charged......
Sitting quietly in the gazebo, Dian Wei waited silently, his eyes scanning the surroundings from time to time, maintaining sufficient vigilance.
It wasn't long before that.
Stomp ......
Dian Wei heard the sound of hurried and confused footsteps, coming from far and near, and turned around to sweep his eyes.
I saw two figures running quickly on a horizontal path to the east of the pavilion.
The two are a middle-aged man and a woman.
The woman ran ahead, dressed in a blue dress, with a sword in her right hand and a scabbard in her left, her wet face pale as paper, and her expression was indescribably frightened.
The middle-aged man who fell behind her was tall, almost one meter nine, wearing a black and white power suit, wearing a heart guard on his chest, a long sheep's beard on his chin, and his weapon was a nine-ring broadsword, which jingled when he ran.
"Run for what?"
Dian Wei glanced at the man and woman, who were running faster than the dogs, his brows furrowed slightly, and then his gaze moved and turned behind them.
Suddenly, a third figure came into view.
It was a middle-aged man with a big belly, full of beards, short stature, only 1.7 meters, and a short-handled axe in his right hand, which was the kind used to chop wood.
The beard ran wildly, as if chasing the man and woman in front.
At this time, the woman turned her head and saw the pavilion less than ten feet away, and there were people sitting in it, and she ran over without thinking about it.
The goatee-bearded man behind her immediately followed.
Seeing this, the corners of Dian Wei's mouth twitched, and a cold color appeared on his face.
The woman ran closer, saw the people in the pavilion clearly, and hurriedly shouted, "Friend, help, we are being chased and killed......
Abnormal?!
Dian Wei was shocked, that bearded person looked like a very normal person, but it was also abnormal?
The woman shouted as she ran: "Ask a friend to come to the rescue, and there will be a heavy thank......
The words are not finished.
Huo Ran, the young man who was meditating in the pavilion, got up, plunged into the heavy rain curtain, and disappeared into the distance extremely fast.
"You!"
The woman was angry, and scolded in a sharp voice: "Numb, another bastard who can't be saved when he dies!" ”
……
Outside the gate of the house.
At noon, the sun was shining.
Da-da-da-da!
A carriage came quickly, stopped in front of the gate, and a beautiful woman got out of the carriage.
Several doormen looked at it, and their expressions suddenly changed, and they hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "Meet Miss!" ”
"No courtesy."
Su Wanqing waved her hand casually.
Her eyes flashed, she looked at the adventurers gathered outside the gate, and asked the doorman, "How many people have entered today?" ”
The doorman nodded and replied: "Very much, more than in previous months combined, there are almost a hundred and fifty people who have entered in one morning, some are acting alone, some are traveling together, and some are adventurers hired by major families, hehehe, everyone wants a piece of the pie, it's really lively." ”
The doorman smiled, raised his hand and pointed at the people next to him, "Miss, you see, these people have just arrived, and it seems that they are also planning to go in." Oh, the wealth is in danger, and everyone's enthusiasm is high, so that the villain also wants to go in and break in. ”
Su Wanqing listened without saying a word, and suddenly interrupted and asked, "I heard that Xi Fengshan also went in, is there such a thing?" ”
The doorman nodded, showing admiration and said, "That's right, he will go in about three poles in the morning." Everyone said that this person was too crazy, he made so much money, he didn't enjoy it, he was stunned to enter the abnormal territory to find excitement. ”
Su Wanqing frowned slightly, her expression was slightly strange, and she was silent for a long time.
The doorman thought for a while, and then said, "By the way, Dian Wei Gongzi also went in." ”
"Dian Wei, he went in too?"
Su Wanqing took a breath and muttered, "It's troublesome." ”
The doorman blinked: "Miss, what's the trouble?" ”
Su Wanqing turned around and returned to the carriage and said to the coachman, "Quick, hurry back home." ”
The carriage quickly drove away from the scene, leaving a few guards looking at each other for unknown reasons.
About half an hour later!
A young man with thick eyebrows rushed to the gate of the house, and looked like he was looking for someone.
He didn't find anyone, so he asked the doorman: "Have you seen my father's 'cold-faced judge' Kuang Guangrong?" ”
Doorman: "Oh, Kuang Lao, he just entered the mansion with three apprentices on his front foot, and it is less than a cup of tea." ”
"Already in?"
The young man with thick eyebrows changed his face and slapped his thigh anxiously, "This is a bad thing!" ”
The doorman exclaimed, "What's wrong?" ”
Young man with thick eyebrows: "You don't know yet, Xi Fengshan is dead!" ”
The doorman was stunned: "Xi Fengshan is dead?" No, you haven't entered the mansion, how do you know if he's dead? ”
Young man with thick eyebrows: "How do I know?" Xi Fengshan's corpse is now lying in the 'Tongfu Inn', and it has been cold for half the night! ”
Hearing this, several doormen looked at each other, all bewildered.
Doorman: "You mean, Xi Fengshan is in the Tongfu Inn at the moment, and the person is dead, right?" ”
The thick-eyed youth nodded:
"That's right, Xi Fengshan has been living in the Tongfu Inn, he was killed last night, and I heard that the death was extremely miserable.
Moreover, the murderer wrote a vicious curse in his blood: Anyone who enters the Su family's mansion must not die well!
After I heard about this, I hurriedly ran to inform my father, wanting to dissuade him from entering the Su family's mansion to explore, but I didn't expect to be late. ”
The thick-eyed young man sighed and turned away.
Several of the guards were dumbfounded.
If Xi Fengshan was killed in the middle of the night, who was the person who entered the mansion in the morning?
……
Charge 90%!
The rain did not stop, and Dian Wei entered a passage, and on both sides there were high walls.
He walked unhurriedly and quietly, and the sound of his footsteps, which was already very soft, was completely muffled by the sound of rain.
After getting rid of the middle-aged man and woman, Dian Wei didn't touch anyone again, so he kept acting cautiously.
Charge 95%!
Walking and walking......
Dian Wei stopped abruptly and narrowed his eyes slightly.
On the wall, a dark shadow appeared!
The silhouette is a person!
It was a pitch-black figure!
Seeing this, Dian Wei immediately remembered an abnormal "shadow" mentioned by Su Wanqing.
Whenever the shadow haunts and makes the action of lifting a stone and smashing people, a big stone will inevitably fall from the sky, and people will be made alive with orange meat puree.
The figure on the wall didn't move at the moment.
Dian Wei groaned and took a step back.
Instantly!
The figure on the wall took a step forward.
"Are you also a tracker?"
Dian Wei was speechless, it seemed that no matter who encountered this shadow, it would be difficult to get rid of it.
At this time, the figure suddenly moved.
I saw it slowly raise its hands, as if lifting a heavy object, and made a toss towards Dian Wei's side.
Dian Wei immediately looked up at the sky, dark clouds and lightning shining.
Bang!
At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck, and the blinding light dazzled the human eye.
Dian Wei had to turn his head away.
But he heard a short "whoosh" and it fell from the sky!
"It's coming!"
Dian Wei didn't think about it, the Chimu Jin flowed quickly, and he showed a step to catch the cicada chasing the wind, and rushed forward.
Rumble!
In the next moment, a large rock fell down and smashed into the place where Dian Wei was standing.
Dian Wei looked back and couldn't help but be stunned.
The stone was round, more than three meters in diameter, and it fell from a great height, carrying a terrifying force of impact, and sank deep into the ground like a cannonball.
"The strong man of the bone forging can't withstand this blow."
Dian Wei's heart was awe-inspiring, and he continued to run wildly, turning his head to stare at the figure on the wall, but he saw that the figure also moved at an alarming speed, always following up, and following suit.
After a moment's pause, the figure raised its hands again.
Seeing this scene, Dian Wei snorted angrily, picked up the long-handled hammer and smashed it towards the wall.
Boom!
The wall was smashed through in a huge way, and a large hole appeared, revealing a courtyard behind the wall.
Dian Wei tiptoed a little and got into the hole.
Almost in the next instant, a large stone fell on the spot, giving people a sense of power that destroyed the world.
Dian Wei looked back at the wall, but saw no figure coming.
"Could it be that shadow, only on the other side of the wall?" Dian Wei breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then looked at this courtyard.
The place is not big, just a small yard.
There was only one large room, a storeroom-like place.
The door was locked and rusty.
Dian Wei stood in the small courtyard and did not move.
But he had barely caught his breath when suddenly a man burst in, through the hole he had smashed open.
"You ......"
Dian Wei's eyes froze, and he instantly recognized this person, who was not the lone Xi Fengshan.
"Friend, did you smash this hole?" Xi Fengshan glanced at Dian Wei, his gaze swept over the long-handled hammer in his hand.
Dian Wei nodded.
Xi Fengshan raised his eyebrows and said, "When you smashed the wall, how did you know that there happened to be a courtyard behind the wall?" ”
Dian Wei: "I don't know, just smash it." It's you, I just broke a wall, and you followed up, it's too coincidental. ”
Xi Fengshan: "Unfortunately, because I happened to be nearby, I heard the movement you made, and when I came to check, I suddenly ran into a shadow on the wall and was forced to hide in." ”
Dian Wei was noncommittal: "Do you know what the shadow on the wall is about?" ”
Xi Fengshan: "It should be a trick played by Zhou Shinan, he liked to hang people on the wall during his lifetime, and then play with stones until he smashed people to pieces." ”
Dian Wei: "You mean, that figure is the mark left by the person after he was stoned to death?" ”
Xi Fengshan: "Yes, every time Zhou Shinan plays the game of smashing people, he will hang people on the same wall, and after smashing people, there will be a blur of flesh and blood on the wall.
Therefore, the high wall of the Zhou family has also died, and after being distorted by the abnormal area, there is an abnormality like 'shadow'. ”
Dian Wei said: "Then what kind of place is this courtyard, listen to your meaning, I shouldn't enter here?" ”
Xi Fengshan: "You and I shouldn't have entered here, the door of this courtyard has long been sealed, there are walls on all sides, no one can enter, and we shouldn't be discovered." ”
Dian Wei: "It's also on Zhou Shinan's seal?" ”
Xi Fengshan nodded: "If my investigation is not wrong, this place should be a storage room." ”
Dian Wei: "What's stored?" ”
Xi Fengshan: "Of course, it's Zhou Shinan's beloved collection." With that, he tore the lock on the door of the storeroom.
The door to the storeroom slowly opened.
