Text Chapter 44 The Strange Man of the Secret House_01
Morning.
The morning fog had just risen from the cobblestone road, which was narrow.
Guo Dalu turned the alley on the right and saw a very familiar door.
That means he's been through this door.
But in this city, he hardly has even an acquaintance, let alone a familiar family.
He immediately remembered that this door was the one he had broken into during the day when he was tracking down the pockmark.
Now there are no lights inside.
Is the yellow-skinned husband doing the things that make him yellow-skinned?
Guo Dalu originally wanted to search here at night to see if the pockmarked seeds would appear here.
But now he has changed his mind.
He went further and turned right again.
The road of this alley is paved with very neat bluestone slabs, which seems to be far cleaner and neater than other alleys.
It's early in the morning, and there are still a few lights on in the alley.
His eyes lit up at the sight of the words on two of the lanterns.
"Ruka-in. ”
The Meilan girl's nest turned out to be in this alley.
It's a pity that now is not the time to find Fang, Miss Meilan's jade arm may have become someone else's pillow.
Even if Guo Dalu is a disciple, he can't spoil other people's scenery now.
But in his heart, he seemed to have a very special feeling, just like the feeling that a poet feels before he finds a good sentence.
He walked faster and turned to the right again.
This is already the main street, and he walked along the street for more than a dozen steps, and then he saw the grain mill and the gold-lettered signboard of the Huibin Building diagonally opposite.
There were several stone piers beside the street, and Guo Dalu sat down on them, pondering.
The row of houses where the little girl lives, if it is the first row.
The house where the couple lived was considered the second row.
The row of houses in the Ryukyo Temple is the third row.
The grain mill is of course the fourth row.
In these four rows of houses, there is a family, which has something to do with the pockmark.
- If it wasn't for the pockmarked son who asked him to go to the Dragon King Temple, how would he have met that little girl?
- Is this a coincidence? or is it a deliberate arrangement?
- Was it because she knew some secrets, but it was inconvenient for her to tell them, that she hinted at him like that?
- What is the secret she knows?
- Did she deliberately hide under that divine case and deliberately want Guo Dalu to find out?
- Could all this have been arranged by that pockmark a long time ago?
- What was his purpose in doing this?
Guo Dalu stood up and walked along the original road again.
These four rows of houses are exactly an unequal quadrangulation.
No matter what city street, the row of houses in front must be close to the row of houses in the back.
But there is a wide distance between the first row of houses and the third row of houses.
The same goes for the second row of houses and the fourth row.
So in the middle of these four rows of houses, there must be a vacant lot.
Guo Dalu's heart suddenly jumped.
"Is there some special reason why these four rows of houses were deliberately built like this?"
There is only one way to find out.
Guo Dalu swept onto the roof of the grain mill.
There is a house in front of the grain mill, which is the counter façade, and there is a yard behind it.
The wings on both sides of the courtyard seem to be inhabited, and the one behind them is a warehouse for piling grain.
There should be no other room in the back.
Guo Dalu had now reached the ridge of the barn house behind him, and immediately saw that there was indeed another house in the middle of the four rows of houses.
The four houses are like four walls, enclosing the house in the middle, so there is neither an exit nor a gate for this house.
How can anyone in the world build a house in such a place?
Across the ridge of the house was where the couple lived, the second row of houses.
If you don't pay special attention, no one will think that this house is connected to other houses, and even if a night walker passes by on the ridge, they will never notice the strangeness of this house.
But now Guo Dalu has found out.
