The rugged mountain road traveled for nearly an hour, and the process was extremely bumpy and made people break out in a cold sweat, and now Chen Yi and the three of them understood why Zhong Muping chose this kind of off-road vehicle with a side door.

Ordinary vehicles may not be able to get up, and it is easy to break down in the middle of the mountain.

Chen Yi couldn't help but complain in his heart at the moment, if he didn't engage in a cableway, he wouldn't even be able to repair the road?

Now that the country's infrastructure is so developed, as long as you can afford it, an elevated highway can be built directly from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and you can get it directly with one foot of the accelerator.

Even the mountain can be hollowed out, and the vertical elevator can go straight to the entrance door.

Only you can't think of it, no architect can't do it.

When the engine roars and the vehicle climbs a steep and high slope, the scene suddenly opens up, and the manor, nestled among the mountains, is revealed.

The building is not flat and still has a continuous steep slope, but the architect who designed the manor is very clever, and the whole manor and the top of the hill are like a complex mortise and tenon structure, tightly inlaid together.

On the surface, the foundation is a problem, but it must have been solved, otherwise it would not have been built, and it is difficult to say whether it can resist earthquakes, at least it can resist high-level winds.

The car stopped at the door, several people got out of the car, the temperature in the mountains was lower, and Fang Shuyu couldn't help but tighten his clothes.

Beside him, Chen Yi looked up at the front, the perfect crystallization of nature and human wisdom, which was extremely impactful.

The manor is built on the mountain, cleverly using the ups and downs and direction of the mountain, and giving full play to every inch of land.

If you look at it from a distance, you can imagine the majesty of the manor, standing like a castle in the clouds, and it is magnificent.

The style is not very obvious, there should be a combination of Chinese and European style.

"it!"

Jiang Fanlei can't describe it, he can only use a sentence to travel the world, I feel that this time it is really not in vain, and I have seen it for a long time.

Compared with the manor in front of you, the island in the middle of the lake in Yangcheng is simply a thatched house.

How was this built?

The mountain road is so difficult to walk, it is difficult for several people to come up, let alone transport so many stones.

Helicopter?

How many helicopters are there?

Fang Shuyu was also shocked, she was shocked by the building for the first time, but she didn't expect that there was such a magical place in the corner of the country.

The owner of the manor is not ordinary, and the one who built the manor is even more unusual.

She smelled money, it must be in billions.

"How?" Fang Shuyu asked Chen Yi in a low voice.

Chen Yi looked at the manor in front of him and shook his head slightly: "I don't know, this is the wisdom of human beings, there is always a way." ”

In front of the dark manor, everyone became very small, like a hideous giant beast looking down on the weak food, and it seemed that it would open its bloody mouth in the next second.

"Several, please."

Zhong Muping smiled and led Chen Yi and the three into the tall iron gate.

The door is not locked, and it is carved with delicate patterns, solemn and mysterious.

When you pass through the iron gate, a wide stone path leads to the depths of the estate, lined with trees and flower beds that are still lush in winter, but unfortunately the flowers in the flower beds have withered and the dead leaves are scattered, adding to the decaying atmosphere of the yard.

Chen Yi walked slowly, and inside, he could already feel the vastness of the manor, like a small kingdom, standing on the top of Mount Doom.

From a distance, all the buildings are scattered and have different styles, as seen outside the gate, there are both modern glass curtain walls and classical European three-dimensional lines.

Against the backdrop of rocks and trees, these buildings stand out and have a strong sense of contrast.

In addition, the well-designed landscape in the park also adds a lot of points, with ponds, flowing water, and even small waterfalls.

After walking for a few minutes, the four of them came to the main building, the highest altitude building stands out from the entire manor and the mountains, the design is elegant and luxurious, whether it is the tall stone pillars or the bright floor-to-ceiling windows, all show the owner's taste and financial resources.

This can no longer be called a building, but a work of art that captures the sky.

Natural and human elements have completely transformed the steep mountain top into a rare human attraction.

After the shock, Chen Yi felt a trace of depression, which was brought by the building and Zhong Muping in front of him.

Anyone who suddenly comes to such a place, if they are not mentally prepared, their first reaction will definitely not be pleasant.

"Does Mr. Chung come often?"

In front of the door, Chen Yi asked one last question, and he saw the other party's calmness.

Zhong Muping was about to knock on the door, but when he heard this, he turned around and smiled: "No, it's the first time for me, but I've seen photos and videos, and Shiran gave me a detailed route." ”

Chen Yi sighed and stopped talking.

There was a knock on the door, and soon the door to the main building opened, accompanied by footsteps from far and near.

The door was opened by a middle-aged man, dressed in a noble tuxedo, with shiny hair combed and a bow tied at the neckline.

This dress gave Chen Yi and the three of them an inexplicable sense of time-travel, as if they had come to a foreign aristocratic mansion in the last century.

"Mr. Chung Mu Ping Chung?" The man smiled kindly.

The smile made Fang Shuyu and Jiang Fanlei feel at ease, if the other party was expressionless, it would be a bit crazy to cooperate with the built environment.

Zhong Muping nodded: "Yes." ”

Affirmed, the man turned sideways: "Please come in, Miss Chen, they are already waiting." ”

Zhong Muping: "Okay, thank you. ”

Following Zhong Muping's footsteps, the three of them entered the main building, and almost at the same time, their first move was to raise their heads.

The inside of the tall main building turned out to be hollow, and the pitch-black ceiling was frozen in the distance, giving people a vertigo-like mystery.

The staircase is on the side of the building, and the rooms are also on the side of the building, which is the architectural style of the tower, with a hollow interior and an outer wall enclosure.

The front is not a living room, but just an entrance hallway, and the way into the living room is also on the side, separated by a huge stone painting, and covered with blankets on the left and right.

Hiss!

Suddenly, a harsh and strange voice sounded, and the three of them all retracted their gaze and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

On the ground, two small white snakes spitting snake hyacinths and crawling in an S shape, staring at them with cold eyes.

Fang Shuyu, the only woman among the several, was suddenly startled and hurriedly approached Chen Yi.

How can there be a snake in the room!

"I'll go!"

Jiang Fanlei's courage is not much stronger, snakes are rarely feared, just like spiders, they are born with deterrence.

Even Zhong Muping, who had always remained indifferent, retreated in shock, and then looked at the man in the tuxedo: "What's the situation?" How can there be snakes in this winter?? Still in the house! ”

Snakes are cold-blooded animals and shouldn't they hibernate in winter?

The tuxedo man was not surprised, smiled and stepped forward to pick up the white snake with one hand to play, and said: "Sir likes to raise small animals, I'm sorry to surprise the guests, don't worry, it's not poisonous, it's very docile, they are welcoming guests." ”

Zhong Muping was silent.

It seems that he really came for the first time.

The man's words made the corners of Jiang Fanlei's eyes tremble, and he suddenly regretted a little: "You call it a small animal?" ”

The other party asked rhetorically: "Isn't it an animal?" It is alive, and all living things are called animals. ”

Jiang Fanlei couldn't refute it.

Chen Yi looked at the white snake swimming in the man's hand and said: "The white snake welcomes guests, it's really the first time I've encountered it, I don't know who the gentleman in your mouth is?" ”

The man did not answer, turned and walked to the living room at the end of the carpet road, and the voice came: "Please take a seat." ”

Jiang Fanlei pulled Chen Yi: "Hey, it's weird here, and the people are weird, haven't we crossed over?" ”

Chen Yi slanted at him: "There are simple and easy-to-understand reasons behind everything, don't be deceived by its appearance, buildings, people, snakes, are all things that exist on the planet, where to cross?" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Fanlei muttered in a low voice, but Chen Yi didn't hear it clearly.

Zhong Muping reacted and said, "Team Chen...... Oh no, Mr. Chen, let's go inside. ”

Chen Yi nodded.

Approaching the stone painting, Chen Yi glanced at it casually, and the beautiful vision of the harmonious existence of humans and animals was painted on it, which was originally a very happy and peaceful implication, but it was destroyed by the biggest variable.

The variable is that all the people and animals in the painting, without exception, are bones.

A beautiful painting instantly becomes a strange painting.

"Damn!"

Jiang Fanlei retracted his gaze and cursed secretly, regretting more and more in his heart, and his sense of curiosity was satisfied, in exchange for a psychological shadow that needed to be healed for a long time.

There was no way, if he came, he would be safe, and he couldn't propose to go down the mountain immediately.

Do you want to go down on your own?

Beyond the stone paintings, you will be greeted by a dazzling crystal chandelier that illuminates the room like the sun.

But...... The style of painting is wrong again, the shape of each bulb holder of the crystal chandelier is the skull of an animal, and it is different.

The most eye-catching thing is the pendants on the high walls on the left and right sides, which are models of human skeletons.

Other details are not listed one by one, in short, the style of the whole living room is very dark.

Everyone has their own preferences, some people yearn for light, and some people pursue darkness, here we are talking about the decoration style, it has nothing to do with people.

In the middle of the large living room is a wrap-around sofa that surrounds a modern solid wood coffee table with a bottle of open red wine.

There were four people sitting, each holding a glass of red wine.

"Mu Ping, why did you bring so many people? Isn't it only allowed to bring one? ”

The woman's voice rang out, and there was dissatisfaction in it.

Chen Yi and the three of them looked over, and the woman put down the wine glass and stood up, stepping on high heels and walking over.

"Beautiful!"

Jiang Fanlei's eyes widened, and the second time he had an extremely amazing feeling in reality, the first time was when he met Fang Shuyu.

The other party's appearance and figure can almost catch up with Shang Shuyu, and at this level, it is impossible to clearly distinguish the high and low, and it can only be said that each has its own merits.

Fang Shuyu is a royal sister-type girl next door, a little more simple, and the one in front of her is a domineering and cold type of flaming red lips, and the contrast is obvious.

If nothing else, this should be Zhong Muping's wife Chen Shiran, whose temperament and name are too different.

What a blessing.

As a man, Jiang Fanlei inevitably felt a little envious.

Faced with the woman's questioning, Zhong Muping hurriedly stepped forward to explain.

"Oh?" The woman looked at Chen Yi in surprise, "The son of the Dongzhou Chen Group?" Disrespectful, a few of you please sit down, coincidentally, my surname is Chen, my name is Chen Shiran. ”

"Hello Miss Chen, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Chen Yi didn't care about the episode, and Fang Shuyu and Jiang Fanlei stepped forward to take a seat.

Not far away, a man in a tuxedo took out a bottle of red wine again and skillfully uncorked it.

"It's supposed to be a housekeeper."

Chen Yi judged in his heart and glanced at the others.

In addition to Chen Shiran, the other three are two men and one woman, ranging in age from their twenties to their forties and fifties, two young and one older.

"There are all the people, two more than expected, but it doesn't matter, everyone is a guest, welcome everyone to the Shadow of Darkness Manor."

After the red wine was poured, Chen Shiran's voice sounded.

Chen Yi glanced at the red wine swaying in the glass in front of him, and knew that the next thing should be to introduce himself.

"Miss Chen, are there only eight of us in the entire manor?" One of the older men asked.

Chen Shiran nodded: "Yes, nine people to be exact, and the housekeeper Yuxiang, he has been living here and has not come down the mountain for many years." ”

Hearing this, the middle-aged man turned his head, and the others also looked over.

Facing the eyes of several people, the tuxedo man smiled and bowed, although he was a housekeeper, but his gestures gave people a sense of nobility, if it weren't for relatives, the salary was estimated to be very high.

"Bureau of Nine......

Chen Yi's thinking never stopped, and he said that he was a gentleman before, so the owner of the manor is definitely not Chen Shiran, and she has a net worth of tens of millions and she has no ability.

Then she looks like an owner, what is the relationship between her and the owner of the manor?

Doom Shadow Yunlu, this name is really well chosen, it should be the occasion.
