Chapter 135: [Lady in Black] Water Stains
This woman is about fifty years old, and just looking at it from a distance can make people feel very uncomfortable.
Black skirt, black heels, pale skin, and ...... Bright red nail polish.
She is about two meters tall, thin and long.
The luxurious temperament on the body is accompanied by an inexplicable coldness.
It is worth mentioning that the woman's arms are very long.
Even though she was close to two meters tall, her arms were about to touch her knees when they fell.
With a stiff, almost completely indiscernible smile, she nodded lightly to the crowd, and then, without uttering a word, sat down in her master's seat.
As she sat down, everyone took their seats one after another.
After about two or three minutes, everyone saw Neil, the butler, pushing a small cart.
The trolley is full of delicacies.
It was steaming hot, and the scent was already permeating all corners of the room.
The butler put on a pair of white gloves with a very ceremonial sense, and then neatly placed the food on the cart one by one in front of everyone.
"Madame, please, dine with you."
The butler said with a smile on his face, and then pushed the cart away.
After he left, the lady in black picked up her knife and fork and expertly cut the steak on the plate.
As the knife gently sliced through the delicate surface of the steak, the bright red liquid immediately spread across the snow-white plate.
It's also an almost whole-life steak.
Seeing that the hostess took the lead, Ning Qiushui and the others no longer hesitated.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was particularly dreary, and no one spoke.
There was only the crisp sound of knives and forks colliding with plates. and the sounds made when chewing meat.
Twenty minutes later, the hostess finished eating.
She did eat a lot of food, eating seven pieces of steak alone.
The average adult man can't eat that much.
After eating, the hostess got up, nodded slightly to the crowd again, and then turned to leave.
After everyone had finished eating, the butler skillfully cleaned up the tableware.
"Please wait for me for a few minutes, and I'll take my things to the kitchen, let the people wash them, and then I'll take you to your place where you'll stay tonight."
Neil, the butler, smiled and finished speaking to the crowd, then pushed the dining cart and left.
Five minutes later, he returned to the place and led the group towards the second floor of the castle.
When they reached the top of the staircase, they suddenly heard a thunderclap overheadโ
Thundered!
The thunder was so clear that everyone could hear it.
But there was a look of surprise on their faces.
Long before they entered the castle, they had observed the weather outside.
If you have a little common sense, you will know that it is not raining at all outside!
However, after the thunder, soon there was a loud and heavy rain outside.
Neil, the butler who was about to take them upstairs, changed slightly after hearing the rain, and he apologized to everyone:
"I'm sorry, it's raining outside, and according to Madame's request, the door of the castle must be closed when it rains."
"Please wait."
After the butler finished speaking, he took the key from his chest and hurried down the stairs.
After he left, everyone standing at the top of the stairs looked at each other, and they all saw the meaningful look in each other's eyes.
A key that locks the door...... Naturally, it is also possible to open the door.
The key they're looking for in the main quest has appeared.
"Brother Qiushui, is that the key we are looking for?"
Jun Lu asked softly beside Ning Qiushui.
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"Yes."
"I thought it would take a lot of effort to find this key, but I didn't expect the key to appear soon after entering this blood door."
"But that's not necessarily a good thing, the key...... I'm afraid it's hard to take. โ
Jun Luyuan nodded.
This was also the first time he had entered the Blood Gate, and while he was curious, he was also extremely vigilant.
It didn't take long for the housekeeper to return.
He continued to lead the group upstairs.
Ning Qiushui stared at the road on the ground where the housekeeper walked, and frowned slightly.
There are water stains.
Why are there water stains?
Did the housekeeper go out just now?
Didn't he just go to close the door, what was he going out for?
Ning Qiushui's eyes were slightly sharp, but he didn't show it, and followed the butler to the second floor of the ancient castle.
"The rooms here can only be locked from the inside, so there are no keys prepared, so there are a total of 16 rooms for you, so you can distribute them yourself."
After a pause, the butler Neil said meaningfully:
"A maximum of two people can be accommodated in a room."
"Tomorrow morning at 6 o'clock I will prepare breakfast for you in advance, and put it on the table below, and at ten o'clock I will go to clean up the dishes."
"So...... I wish you all a pleasant stay at the castle tonight. โ
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that there is a room for the little master and the lady on the third floor of the castle, and the lady doesn't like the guests to go to that place, so if it's okay, you'd better not go upstairs."
"Even if you go, don't go near the corridor to the east."
After Neil finished speaking, the butler turned and left.
The crowd looked at the 16 rooms in this hallway, 201 through 216.
There are 8 on each side.
Ning Qiushui took Jun Luyuan into the innermost room 216.
The room was very clean and had an en-suite bathroom.
Just near the windowsill, there was some paper and a pen for drawing, as well as a small toy to decompress.
The two of them checked the room a little.
Jun Luyuan came to the window sill, pinched the small toy, and put it back in place, his eyes fell on the paper and pen on the table.
"It's strange, what are you doing with this thing for guests, is it for painting?"
When he was about to check the pen and paper, he heard Ning Qiushui suddenly say:
"Since you think it's weird, don't mess with these things."
Jun Luyuan was about to stop when he was about to take the pen, he looked back at Ning Qiushui's more serious expression, and nodded.
"Okay."
"In addition, the world behind the blood gate is generally more dangerous at night, the yin qi is very heavy, and anything may appear, if you hear any sound at night...... Remember to ignore it. โ
Ning Qiushui briefly introduced some precautions to Jun Luyuan about the Blood Gate.
The latter is all in mind.
Ning Qiushui also came to Jun Luyuan's side, looking at the gloomy sky and the torrential rain outside through the transparent glass.
"It's been a strange rain."
He said.
Junlu Far Road:
"Indeed, it feels like ...... Dedicated to us. โ
Through the hazy rain curtain, the two saw the church at the back of the manor.
It was pitch black.
Although it is a church, it always has a vague and eerie feeling.
Even from a distance of a few hundred meters, Ning Qiushui could vaguely feel the ...... revealed by that place Evil nature.
