The cloudy day that has been stuffy and unsound makes the atmosphere of Yicheng even more gloomy, and only a person can be seen from a distance on the street, all in a hurry, and there is no smile. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The huge protective array emitted a faint light under the clouds, enveloping the entire sky above Yicheng, and from time to time there were streamers of formation patterns passing by, full of mysterious atmosphere. If it weren't opened in this case, it would be worth watching.

Su Rongrong looked at the small map in the upper right corner, when Master Chu pointed the way just now, she marked it, and then hurried to the Chen family's mansion with Lu Bo.

"Do you think Old Man Chen has anything to do with the insect plague?" Lu Bo asked.

"Didn't you also find out, that's why you lied to Old Lady Chu's words. Su Rongrong replied.

Lu Bo shook his head and smiled: "I just think that the words of the giant palm Taoist are very correct, and I echoed it." After all, puppet insects are rare in Xia Zhou. ”

Su Rongrong also looked at him and smiled: "Thanks to your knowledge, otherwise I wouldn't have found this flaw." ”

After speaking, she looked straight ahead, and said slowly while reminiscing: "Lu Bo, in my hometown in my previous life, there was a method of storytelling, called animation. When we were children, we used to watch animations made by a country called Japan, Japan is a very strange country, their animations are warm and inspirational, some are brainless and sell meat, and some are extreme and disgusting.

"In many animated plots, there are some Frankensteins, for the sake of peace or war, frantically hunting supernormal things for research, trying to use them, and eventually bringing great disasters to mankind.

"It probably has something to do with their national nature, which is to follow the rules on a daily basis, but once they are determined to do something, they lose their humanity. Historically, in order to invade my hometown, they tortured and raped people, burned down cities and towns, and in order to create destructive weapons that could control all mankind, they set up Unit 731 to arrest innocent people to carry out cruel experiments......"

Lu Bo listened carefully, he didn't understand the so-called "science" and "research" very well, but he understood the meaning of Su Rongrong.

"Do you think Old Man Chen may have done something to destroy humanity in order to tame the puppet insects and fight?" Lu Bo thought about it and said slowly, "So his matter was gag-off?"

Su Rongrong smiled at him: "It's just a guess, we need more clues." ”

Lu Bo nodded, and after a while, he asked, "Why did you watch the stories told by the people who slaughtered your hometown when you were young?"

Su Rongrong choked, coughed, and said earnestly: "This classmate, this question is a good question, there have been countless debates throughout the ages, I will give you a detailed analysis when I have time......

In the middle of the chat, I have arrived at the Chen house.

It's a big old house, and the gold leaf on the door plate shows that it was once glorious.

Lu Bo stepped forward and knocked on the door first, but there was no response, and he shouted for a while before the door slowly opened.

An old lady with a wrinkled face poked out half of her head and said carefully, "I'm really sorry, I'm old and have bad ears." Is there anything you can do?"

"Hello, my surname is Su, he is my friend, surnamed Lu. Su Rongrong took a step forward, introduced himself side by side with Lu Bo, and said the excuse that he had thought of a long time ago, "My grandmother was lost in the Yishan forest when she was a child, and she was helped by the old Chen seniors, and she passed away this year, so I must come to the door to thank the old Chen seniors." ”

"Ah, it turned out to be Master Chen's old friend—" The old lady smiled like a chrysanthemum with wrinkles on her face, and opened the door to invite them in, "But unfortunately, Master Chen has passed away for many years, and I am the only one left to live here." The two of you came from afar, let's go in and have a cup of tea. ”

"Thank you, seniors. Su Rongrong thanked politely, and walked into the mansion with Lu Bo, "May I ask if the senior is the wife of the old man Chen?"

"No, it's not. The old lady hurriedly waved her hand to deny, "I am an orphan, I was dying of hunger when I was a child, and I was picked up by Master Chen to be a girl. You call me Azhu. ”

Su Rongrong and Lu Bo glanced at each other, just like Master Chu said, there was only one servant woman named Ah Zhu guarding this house, and Ah Zhu was the one who found that Old Man Chen's soul lamp was extinguished.

Considering that it was impolite to call the old man by his name, Su Rongrong called out: "Grandma Zhu." ”

Ah Zhu was stunned for a moment, and actually shed two lines of tears, and hurriedly raised his sleeves to wipe his tears, and locked the door of the house tremblingly, before leading the two of them inside, while muttering and explaining: "It's really rude, I once had a grandson who pestered me every day to call me grandma, so I couldn't help it for a while...... Please come with me, both of you. ”

Looking at the back of Azhu's vicissitudes, Su Rongrong was silent.

Master Chu once said that during the insect plague, Mrs. Zhu and others once scolded Mr. Chen, and the subordinates listened to it and spread it. There were too many dead people that time, and everyone was indignant, so they all vented in the Chen family's mansion, and people came to the door every day to scold and throw stones. Ah Zhu stuck to the Chen family's mansion all his life, and once picked up an orphan and recognized him as a grandson, but he was angry and beaten to death just because he lived in the Chen family's mansion, and no one was willing to avenge him.

Sometimes, it's really hard to tell who is more miserable than whom.

Su Rongrong wanted to turn away from Ah Zhu's sadness, so she asked, "Grandma Zhu, what kind of person is Senior Chen?"

Ah Zhu remembered the past, and the wrinkles on his face stretched a little: "Master Chen is a very good person, kind-hearted, often brings back orphans and stray cats and dogs to raise, and is kind to his subordinates." And Madame, Madame is a beauty, she speaks softly, but unfortunately she has not been in good health since she was a child, and she has no spiritual roots, and she died not long after moving here, leaving no heirs, leaving the master alone......"

Su Rongrong asked, "Aren't Mr. Chen and his wife from Yicheng originally?"

Ah Zhu shook his head: "No, Master Chen was originally a cattle herding baby in the mountain col, with the guidance of a passing immortal master, he was born smart, and his spiritual roots were good, and he built the foundation at the age of thirty, and accumulated a sum of money, so he took his wife to move to Yicheng to live a good life, but unfortunately his wife died in a few years." ”

Su Rongrong had a guess in her heart, and asked tentatively: "Are Mr. Chen and his wife childhood sweethearts?"

Ah Zhu turned his head and smiled at her: "Hey, yes, Master Chen told your grandmother? They are orphans who grew up together, and they have been together for decades......

And so it was.

Used to be kind. Life was rough as a child. Struggle to succeed. There is a wife who is very close to each other. Caught up in research that others can't understand because of the death of a loved one.

Su Rongrong suddenly has a feeling of walking in a storybook, these plots seem familiar, is it because art comes from life, or because there is a tender death behind every tragic madman?

If it was because of the latter, then she had to take care of this puppet insect incident, and what Old Man Chen was pursuing was probably exactly what Rong'er needed.

Ah Zhu and Su Rongrong told a lot of the past of the Chen family's mansion, let them see the portraits of Master Chen and his wife, and took them for a walk in the mansion.

The Chen family's mansion is more like a group of buildings than a house, with short corridors and wide eaves, which darken the patio and are ventilated by windows. I think it's because my wife is weak and can't withstand the wind and sun.

However, in this way, it also makes the whole house look damp and secluded, and some corridors are also dark during the day, which makes people feel depressed.

In the evening, Su Rongrong proposed that the return journey was far away, hoping to spend the night, and Ah Zhu agreed without hesitation and cleaned up two bedrooms for them.

By the time he arrived, Ah Zhu, as an ordinary old man, was already asleep. Su Rongrong and Lu Bo used their minds to transmit the sound and quietly walked out of the room.

"If you can find research records related to puppet insects in the house, you might be able to come up with a way to deal with the insect infestation. Su Rongrong said.

The cold wind whistled through the cracks in the window. After the Chen family's mansion goes into night, it becomes even more gloomy and lonely.

The corridor was pitch black, and Su Rongrong let go of his consciousness and scanned the mansion.

The information on the small map in the upper right corner continued to improve as Su Rongrong's divine sense spread, and Azhu's direction was also marked by a small light spot. In some aisles and entrances, there are also signs of magic circles.

There are three rooms that cannot be penetrated by the divine sense because of the formation, and the map is pitch black.

Judging by the arrangement of the premises, two of them may be bedrooms, and the remaining one is a basement with an inconspicuous entrance and an unknown purpose.

"There is a suspicious room in the basement. "Su Rongrong passed the sound, lead the way in that direction.

The entrance to the basement was hidden deeply, and Lu Bo searched for a while with experience before opening the mechanism and pulling a stone door open from the bookcase in the study and the stone slab under the thick plush carpet.

Behind the stone gate is a wooden door, and the door is attached to the complex formation.

Su Rongrong had already prepared, took out the vial of liquid refined by the "Heavenly Trench" formation mage from his backpack, poured it along the pattern of the formation, and after waiting for a while, the formation gradually dissolved.

The wooden door opens as soon as it is opened, and behind the door is a vast dark space.
