The eastern suburbs of Shengjing in Yanjing, Tulip Castle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old Burton family lived in the Lord's Mansion, located next to the central square, which is definitely the essence of the whole castle.

Two hundred years later, the Lord's Mansion is still in its splendour, with a metal fence covered with verdant vines, a five-storey luxury villa standing lonely and proud in the garden, a relief of the goddess of harvest on the white jade pillars, and a colorful glazed window that reflects the slanting light of the setting sun.

The architectural layout of the lord's mansion is completely in the style of the mansion of the great nobles, with a vestibule meadow with a fountain, a special martial arts training ground and horse farm, a barracks dormitory for guards and servants, and a towering Lingfa pagoda next to it.

The Lord's Mansion was clearly cleaned and tidyed up regularly, there were no weeds here, the grass had recently been mruned, the doors and windows of the villa were clean, and the tulips in the flower beds were blooming, giving off a faint fragrance.

There is no doubt that this is definitely the handiwork of the old Burton family, without any salary, they have adhered to the oath of their ancestors here for generations, their spirit is undoubtedly admirable, and what surprised Han Fei and Han Bixuan even more was that the place where Old Burton lived was actually a relatively poor servant room in the lord's mansion, completely abiding by his duties!

You must know that in this castle, there is no one but them, and even if they live in the lord's villa, no one will interfere.

The room is not very big, there is not much furniture in it, but it is very neat and clean, and a wooden table is considered a living room.

"My ancestors have always lived here, I was born here, and I grew up here..."Regarding Han Fei's surprise, Old Burton said: "My grandfather and father both believe that one day a new lord will appear to rebuild the glory of the tulip collar, and we have also adhered to this and never forgotten our identity!"

"My lord, I have finally waited for your arrival, but until the secrets of the castle are solved, I would like to ask you not to stay here, I will take care of this castle!"

Old Burton's grandson, Little Leach, brought tea and looked at Han Fei curiously, he obviously didn't have the same awe of Han Fei as his grandfather.

"That's exactly what I'm here for!" Han Fei smiled, "It's a shame if such a good castle was abandoned, I have a lot of questions for you." ”

"My lord, if you want to know anything, just ask, as long as I know, I will tell you!" said Old Burton without hesitation.

Tulip Castle has been uninhabited since the mysterious death of the third lord except for the ancestors of Burton Sr., and for more than 100 years, the castle has gradually been shrouded in a veil of mystery, and it is said that the treasure of the Marquis Tulip is buried in the underground of the castle, and it is also said that the spirit of the Marquis has always roamed the castle.

Adventurers flocked to the castle because of the legends of the treasure, but no one ever found any treasure in the castle, and when the castle was abandoned, all the valuable furniture items were long since been removed.

Not only did these adventurers find nothing, but people kept mysteriously disappearing in the castle, including some powerful warriors and mages, all of whom were alive and dead, and the castle had another dangerous reputation.

The Empire has sent people to try to uncover the secrets of the castle and search for the whereabouts of the missing people, but the end is no better than that of the adventurers, and finally declares that it is a dangerous place, and since then it has ignored the Tulip Castle, and even the thousands of hectares of fertile land on the territory have been abandoned.

While the daring adventurers tried to unlock the castle's secrets, most of them disappeared silently in the castle. In the last ten years, basically no one dares to come here anymore, but some children in the nearby Rainbow Town often come to play, but except for the old Burton family, no one dares to stay in the fort at night.

"Lord Lord..."Old Burton looked out the window and lowered his voice and said, "I know that there are really ghosts in this castle, they like to appear at night and wander around the castle, and those adventurers are likely to be devoured by them!"

"Believe me, this is definitely not my delusion, my father and grandfather both knew, my father even saw with his own eyes how an adventurer disappeared, but he didn't tell me the details, just told me to forget about their existence, because only then will these ghosts ignore us. ”

"I've never told anyone about this, and when the sun goes down, we hide in our homes and never come out, so that the ghosts don't come looking for us. ”

Han Bixuan couldn't help but shudder, because what Old Burton said was really terrifying, but neither she nor Han Fei thought that the other party was really lying.

The world is so big, there are so many unknown secrets, and dangerous places like Tulip Castle are everywhere, and the legendary ghosts may not be there.

"I've seen ghosts before..."Little Lori, who was hiding behind Little Leach, suddenly poked her head out and said, "They also appear during the day, but they are all hiding in places where the sun can't shine." ”

"They have no hands or feet, they can't see clearly all over their bodies, and they are always floating around!"

Little Lori was covered with his brother before he finished speaking, and little Leach's face was full of horror, obviously he had the same experience.

"Alas, I really wronged these two children..."Old Burton sighed, pulled the two children into his arms and comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid of grandpa!"

Han Bixuan suddenly felt pity, stretched out her hand and pulled Han Fei, Han Fei understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "Old Burton, you have really worked hard all these years, and now it is not a long-term solution for you to stay in the castle with two children, I think these two children are good, maybe they have the talent of a warrior or a mage." ”

"In this case, your family will go back to Shengjing with me to live in my house first, and then you will move back when this castle is not in danger, what do you think?"

Old Burton trembled, looked at his grandson and granddaughter, nodded and said: "Lord Lord, of course I must obey your orders, our Burton family will always be the most loyal servants of the Tulip family, and it is my honor to hand over these two children to you, but if I leave the castle, there will be no one to take care of this lord's mansion..."

"Don't worry, I believe it won't be long before the Tulip Castle will come back to life!" Han Fei smiled confidently, "Leave, it's only temporary." ”

The golden sunlight shone down from the window to the ground, and the sky was getting darker, Han Fei stood up and said, "Everyone leave now!"

"Let's go now?" Old Burton said in surprise: "Your Excellency, you should go first, I'll pack up, and it's not too late to leave with the children tomorrow!"

"No, let's leave now, don't bring anything with you, there is nothing missing in Shengjing's house!" Han Fei said categorically: "Right away!"

It's not that Han Fei is unkind, but he vaguely senses that some danger is approaching, although the old Burton family has never had an accident, but his intuition tells Han Fei that they shouldn't be left behind.

Seeing that Han Fei was so resolute, Old Burton naturally didn't dare to disobey, so everyone left the Lord's Mansion together, and the only thing they took away was Xiao Lori's most beloved rag doll.

The sun was setting in the west, the towering tower of the castle cast a long shadow, the silent castle was even darker, and Han Bixuan and the old Burton family were walking on the long street without people, and the sense of crisis in Han Fei's heart became heavier and heavier.

There seems to be an unknown beast lurking in the dark corners around them, staring at the group, and something is silently gathering and watching from afar!

Han Bixuan also sensed that something was wrong, and her hand quietly pressed on the hilt of the sword, ready to fight at any time.

"Let's leave quickly!" Han Fei suddenly stopped, his eyes scanned the surroundings, and said in a deep voice, "Summoning the battle pet out!"

"Okay!" Han Bixuan hurriedly agreed, and immediately opened the spirit beast bracer.

The light flashed, Wojin and the Angry Wind Wolf King were summoned at the same time, Han Fei let a pair of children ride with Han Bixuan, and he took Old Burton with him, and quickly rushed towards the gate of the castle one after the other.

The speed of the two wolf kings was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they rushed through the long street, and soon approached the open city gate.

Roar!~ Under Han Bixuan's order, the Angry Wind Wolf King, who was carrying the three of them, accelerated to the front of the suspension bridge and suddenly jumped into the air, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, and steadily fell to the other end of the suspension bridge ten meters away, out of the scope of the castle.

Wojin jumped up at the same time after him, and as it leaped, Han Fei glanced back, only to see two black shadows in the street behind him flashing like ghosts, which were extremely weird!

Is this the so-called ghost? Han Fei's gaze froze, and he turned his head back quietly.

As soon as the two wolf kings settled, Han Fei pursed his lips and whistled, and Feihuo, who was gnawing on grass in the wilderness not far away, immediately ran over and followed Han Fei on the return journey to Shengjing.

Galloping all the way, but in about ten minutes, the group arrived at the east gate of Shengjing.

In Yanjing Shengjing, if you are not a royal knight, you can't ride a war pet, so everyone got off the wolf's back, and after Han Fei put Wojin away, he suddenly said, "Bi Xuan, you take everyone to the Zongfu, I'll go back to the castle to have a look!"

Old Burton was taken aback: "Your Excellency..."
