Chapter 465: Old castle

Views:

I sighed and said to Zhong Xiaocheng: "Leave the off-road vehicle and drive in a RV. It is comfortable to drive and there is room to sleep at night."

Zhong Xiaocheng asked: "Two cars, which one should you drive?"

I said: "Turn on Wang Teng this station."

Zhong Xiaocheng opened the door of the car and stretched his head in: "Hey, there is another door shocking crossbow, Touer, where did you get it?"

I said, "I picked it up on the road." As I said, I put the note into Bai Xin's RV.

One after the other, the two RVs continued to move toward the northeast of Eagle City, approaching the evening, and reached the ground.

This area is full of tall buildings, and RVs are driving on the road, like two beetles crawling among the grass.

It was not early, and we parked the car on a side street. There were dense street trees on both sides of the street. The branches and leaves were whispering in mid-air. The thick shade of trees is very conducive to the concealment of the RV.

For safety, the four people slept in an RV, taking turns to watch the night, and spent the night.

The next day, we were shuttled on the surrounding roads. One day later, we did not find any "renhe" buildings.

Ming Han said, "I doubt that the building has been demolished. I have already searched this area."

I said, "Are you sure that the red circle on the map is in the northeast corner of the city?"

Ming Han said with certainty: "Of course I am sure. It's just that the map is so old and the paper has turned yellow. Maybe the original place has been demolished and rebuilt."

I said to my heart: "I'm afraid it is so."

Zuo Wenwen interrupted and said: "The time has been so long. It doesn't matter if I can find it or not, I just need to pass the time."

I smiled and said, "Zuo Wenwen, your mentality is good."

The search continued on the third day. At noon, the two cars parked under a tall building and rested for a while.

After lunch, Zhong Xiaocheng smoked a cigarette and walked on the road. He pointed to an alley between two tall buildings and said: "This alley is like the alley in my hometown. How about going in?"

When we were full and had nothing to do, we followed Zhong Xiaocheng in.

The alley became narrower and narrower, and in the end, it became a winding dirt road.

The dirt road is no more than two meters wide, with trees on both sides, lush weeds, and the environment is extremely quiet. During the walk, it seems as if you have entered the mountains at once

.

Zhong Xiaocheng smiled and said: "I really didn't expect that there is such a quiet place in the city with tall buildings."

Ming Han said: "The terrain is hidden here, but it's a good hiding place."

Zuo Wenwen said: "What a good thing, there is no one in the house, where to sleep at night?"

I smiled and said, "Put up a tent."

Zuo Wenwen said: "There are so many trees and grasses, and there must be a lot of bugs. If you don't bite you at night, your whole body is full of bubbles?"

The four of them were talking, turning around a row of big trees, suddenly bright in front of them:

I saw that the surrounding tall buildings surrounded an open space for the boss, and there was a round bluestone castle in the middle of the open space.

The castle is old, the mottled exterior wall is covered with vines, lush, green, like a picture in a fairy tale world.

Zuo Wenwen said "Ah" and praised sincerely: "It's so beautiful!"

Attracted by the scenery, we hurried to the bottom of the castle and looked up. We were surprised at first, and then rejoiced. It turned out that the bluestone above the gate of the castle was carved with the word "Renhe"!

Ming Han said: "It turns out that everything was wrong. I thought that Renhe was a mansion, but I didn't know it was a castle."

The gate of the castle was hidden, with large copper nails nailed to the door, the copper nails were green and rusty, and the two half-foot-thick doors were densely covered with insect eyes. There are dead leaves under the steps.

Minghan and I opened the door together, and facing a large courtyard, there were two cypress trees planted in the courtyard, both of which were dead, and the shriveled branches stretched out to the sky in vain like countless pairs of withered hands.

The four of them stood in the middle of the courtyard, spinning around and looking around, and saw that the castle was built with thick stones. There are five floors. Walking up the steps, there are more than a dozen houses on each floor, and most of the rooms have furniture. , The furniture looks very old.

We checked from the first floor to the fifth floor and found nothing special. The whole castle is quiet, and the only sound that can be heard is the chirping of insects among the grass.

Ming Han said: "I thought it was circled with a red pen, what is the important place, who knows it's just an ordinary castle."

Zhong Xiaocheng said: "Is this ancient castle hundreds of years old?"

"Almost." I nodded. "We will live here from now on."

Zuo Wenwen was unhappy: "How nice is it to live in a hotel? It's so shabby here."

I said, "Just clean up. If something really happens, it's much safer here."

Zuo Wenwen didn't say anything.

Zhong Xiaocheng said, "Find a hotel and bring some quilt pillows. I think it's pretty good to live in."

We then went downstairs, through the courtyard, and walked towards the gate. Suddenly, Ming Han staggered, almost fell, and muttered: "Something tripped me."

I kicked the dead leaves away with my foot, and it felt strange that an iron ring was exposed on the ground. I kicked a few more feet, and the dead leaves piled up next to me, and another iron ring was exposed. The two iron rings were connected together, which looked like a door A pair of handles.

Zhong Xiaocheng said, "Could it be that this is a door?" After cutting through the dead leaves with his hands, he saw that there was a crack in the door between the two iron rings.

I lifted the iron ring, tapped it a few times, and made a clanging metal sound, with a hollow sound in the dullness. Can't help but blurt out: "There won't be a city down there, right?"

Zhong Xiaocheng found an iron rod and cracked the door. The four of us worked hard together, counting one, two, three, and prying open an iron door with a "hey" sound.

Below the iron gate, there is a sloping downward step, and after a dozen steps, there is another heavy iron gate.

But this iron door is different. There is a small square box welded on the door. When the lid is opened, it turns out to be a combination lock with retina verification. It seems that to open this door, you have to use brute force to open it. .

But the seam of this iron door was so thin that the iron rod could not be inserted at all. Zhong Xiaocheng drew out the weapon, knocked the tip of the knife in with the iron rod, and pulled it forcefully, only to hear a snap, and the weapon broke in two.

The four of them were helpless, and Zuo Wenwen suddenly said, "Isn't there a door on the RV, use Kong Fan to blow it up."

Zhong Xiaocheng said: "This is a good way, go and carry it together."

But Ming Han became cautious and said, "Wait, if we blast the door, what about a group of night monsters inside?"

I nodded, put my ear to the door, and listened attentively. There was no movement behind the door quietly. He took the iron rod and knocked, making a thick sound.

I put down the iron rod and said, "I'm afraid this door is soundproof, you cannot hear the inside."

Zhong Xiaocheng looked at me: "Boss, isn't that prying the door?"
