Chapter 103: A Trip to the Silent Village: A Night Visit to the Ancient House
"Isn't it that I'm dazzled, can you see it?" said Saza in the pouring rain, looking at the old mansion in a daze, and asked the girl beside her. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You said what I was going to ask. Fanny replied in surprise.
You're not deaf, and you still can't hear the cacophony behind us. He said in his heart, but with a slight force in his hand, he led the girl: "Then hurry in." ”
Because of his well-intentioned concealment, Fanny didn't know what was going on behind her, so she was a little surprised by the other party's decisiveness: "Just go in like this? Don't you think it's weird to come back at night and come back at night to find such a big mansion out of thin air?
"The clue finally appeared, and we needed to catch it. Remember the map you simplified? This is actually the last place marked on it? As the noise behind him grew louder and louder, completely muffling out the sound of the wind and rain, Saza replied as he secretly quickened the pace of the two of them. But he didn't put the sentence in his heart, "We have no way back." "Say it.
When he walked into the courtyard outside the old mansion, he couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart, "Boom, boom!" Under the flash of thunder, it was not difficult to see the exterior of the house. Oh my God, it was exactly the same as the old house in his dreams, and when he looked up, he could even find the window he usually jumped down from.
However, only the door of the house is a little different at the moment. Since Saza was holding the cloak with both hands, the task of opening the door naturally fell on Fanny. After approaching the door, she stepped forward and broke the doorknob, tried it a few times, and then turned around and said, "This door is too old, the doorknob is estimated to be old, and it can't be moved at all." ”
"What?!How could it be?" Saza was anxious when he heard this, didn't it leave a crack for himself every time in the past? he couldn't open the door, how could he not be in a hurry? The voices had burned behind them like wildfire, and although they couldn't hear what they were arguing about, they could feel that their emotions were getting higher and higher, as if they were about to explode, and God knew what would happen in a while.
He hurriedly handed over the cloak and reached out to hold the doorknob: "I'll try," he said. He was full of energy, and as soon as he started, he found that the doorknob opened with him as soon as he twisted it, "Could it be that you are scared and don't want to go in?" he couldn't help but ask the girl.
"Fart!" came out of her mouth, and Fanny covered her mouth in some annoyance. But it's really strange, the doorknob didn't move at all just now......
Stumbling open the old wooden door, Saza stopped moving. All the voices behind him stopped abruptly at this moment, leaving only the sound of raindrops breaking, and a heart-piercing pain suddenly came from his tail finger, and a wave of anger rose in his heart for no reason.
Turning his head to look into the house, the daily dilapidated and dirty, mold-covered staircase, and the elegant and chic hall covered with woolen blankets were all staggered before his eyes. Eventually, he shook his head and looked again, but it was nothing more than pitch black.
"Are you alright?" asked Fanny, who had been watching for a long time, worriedly.
"Probably so. Saza replied without confidence, looking down at his right hand, what was the ring all about, it seemed desperate to convey some emotion. What emotions? Anger?
Just as he was guessing, he was suddenly taken aback, the ring was gone, at least, he couldn't see it. You can still feel its weight on your tail finger, but you can't see it with the naked eye.
Seeing that Saza didn't react for a long time, the Demon Array Master girl tried to ask, "Shall we go in yet?"
"Look," he said, holding up his hand so that the girl could see the missing ring on her right hand, "it's invisible, and it's still on my hand, but it's no longer visible." When I opened the door just now, it reacted a little violently, and it was clear that I had to go in. You don't know what's going to happen in there, so you don't have to take the risk. It's just that I don't feel comfortable leaving you alone in this weird village...... "'Who knows if something will happen outside, like just now.'" ’
When he hesitated, he saw that Fanny had already entered the house. "You'd better worry about yourself! Two people are better than one. She laughs.
"You can still laugh. That's what he said, but Fanny's smile made him feel a little lighter.
The wet two entered the house, and if they stayed in the rain for a little longer, the remaining dryness on their bodies would soon disappear.
There were no fingers in the room, and the light outside the door didn't seem to penetrate the darkness. But after a gust of wind, even the only light on the side of the gate disappeared. The door slammed shut.
Although my heart also "chuckled" a little, there was no thought of turning back at this time. Fortunately, the two of them still had lanterns, and even the faint light was only enough to illuminate the ground one step ahead of them, which was better than nothing.
"Let's take a look on the first floor first. Saza said, and as he said he led the girl up. yes, of course he's familiar with it here.
According to the layout of the house in his memory, the first floor is divided into two halves with the central staircase as the dividing line, and the right half seems to be a kitchen and a dining room, at least from the perspective of some dilapidated utensils. He decided to start there and see if it was any different from the dream.
As she passed the central staircase, Saza couldn't help but glance at the ground, where the woman's head had fallen in that unusual dream...... Thankfully, nothing was seen.
But there was a crisp sound to the right of them as they were going, like a vase had been shattered.
'Anyone?' Saza's heart jumped, and he wanted to chase after him, but considering his companion's feelings, he still didn't go too fast. Just now, he clearly felt that when the voice sounded, the whole person of the girl with his arm against him trembled. The first time I came, it was all like this.
Slowly getting closer to the right, I could hear footsteps in the distance in the hallway, very slowly, very slowly, as if dragging a leg. But when I looked up, the darkness blocked everything.
Fanny looked at Saza in shock, but saw that he also had a solemn face.
Because just now, Saza faintly heard the thing make a sound like a beast's moan. Suddenly, the footsteps stopped.
Saza lowered her head, only to realize how eye-catching the seemingly faint lantern in the girl's hand was in the darkness.
"Doom ......"
This time, the voice from that side was even more obvious, and even the girl could hear it. "What's that?" she asked.
Before Saza could say anything, he heard footsteps in the hallway again, this time with a hurry. And, it's coming this way!
"Don't make a sound, get out!" Saza snatched the lift, grabbed the girl, and ran down the stairs. Although he could cast spells now, his instincts told him that it was not a good thing to make too much noise at this time.
Thanks to his knowledge of the house, the two of them found the stairs at once, and ran up in three steps and two steps. I didn't stop until I went up to the second floor, and there was no movement behind me.
"What the hell is that?" asked Fanny, apprehensively.
"I don't know. ”
"Then what are you running for? Don't forget that you're not even afraid of third-order demonic beasts. She said angrily and amusefully.
So I almost died. Saza muttered to himself, "This house is not that simple. Anyway, it's better here than downstairs. ”
"How do you know?" the girl blurted out.
Saza pointed to the corridor behind the girl, where soft candlelight was lit on the walls on either side.
And at this moment, a sound of the piano came from the other end...... (To be continued.) )
