Pasha, the old pedant, was leaning against the window, puffing with a bong. Originally, he quit smoking a long time ago, but because of the refugee crisis some time ago, he was robbed of a lot of things.
Recently, the war has calmed down. The refugees have also been repatriated, and their mood has cleared up. The anxiety is not anxious, but the addiction to smoking cannot be quit.
His old friend Dim still told him to quit smoking, but after the magical rain of light created by Mr. Pat last time, most of the people in Gru Town were dispelled from their physical diseases, so Dim Also started smoking again.
Therefore, they are not persuading anyone now.
While feeling the warmth from the stove and exhaling a thick puff of smoke, Parsha showed a relieved expression.
In the big winter, it should be so comfortable!
While Parsha was enjoying himself, his eyes suddenly looked out the window.
The house was filled with smoke, and the wind and snow were rolling outside the window. He didn't see it very clearly, but he seemed to see a group of people faintly from the corner of the eye
Parsha frowned suspiciously: "George has warned many times, why are there still people out at night? And it's all night, and the weather is cold, who would be hanging out on the street?"
Confused, Parsha put down his bong, sighed at the window, and wiped the foggy glass with his old sleeves.
When he looked out through the relatively clear glass, a hint of doubt suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Three people passed by outside, all of them with a strange aura, and they were full of a strong sense of existence in the snow and dust in the sky.
"One of them looks a bit like Master Pat?" Parsha stood up, opened the door, and looked out of the street.
But when he stretched out his head and tried to identify it carefully, he found that the three had already reached the end of the street, leaving only faint afterimages in the wind and snow.
"Did I read it wrong?" Parsha rubbed his temples, looked back and picked up the oil lamp on the bedside table, ready to follow him out.
However, just as Parsha was about to go out, a tiny figure suddenly jumped from the ceiling, stepped on the wall with one foot, and landed on the table on the other side with the force of the shock.
"Old Parsha, you can just smoke in the house. Anyway, we planted trees to absorb smoke, but you open the door at night, do you want to freeze us to death?" A delicate voice said dissatisfied.
Parsha turned back angrily: "Jin Cancan, how many times have I said, don't follow Dim to learn. You want to call me grandpa, understand? It's no big or small."
Although there were complaints in the words, Parsha looked at the table with tenderness in her eyes, the girl who was less than the size of a slap and was wearing a flower dress.
Parsha looked out and made sure that no one noticed the situation inside, and then closed the door: "Hurry up and go to the attic, it's so cold down here, you're not afraid of catching a cold."
In the face of Parsha's concern, Jin Cancan was embarrassed to yell again: "I didn't ask you, what are you doing when you open the door, you are still holding the oil lamp, are you going to go out? Patriarch Kumiao and Miao have warned you, don't do it at night. Going out, there is danger outside, why don't you believe it."
"I know, I know." Parsha locked the door by the way, "You keep saying it's dangerous outside, what's the danger?"
Kumiaomiao was the patriarch of this group of self-proclaimed Kura Kuka people. He was brought over by the Viscount in person half a month ago, and lived in two batches of Sheriff George and the attic of the Parshas.
In the past half month of getting along, Parsha also loves this group of "goblins in the attic" very much. She has probably lived alone for a lifetime. When they are old, they can have someone to accompany them, even if they just talk, Parsha is very happy. What's more, these attic goblins are also very understanding, and they also help with family affairs. They are very trustworthy friends.
However, Parsha has a few doubts about these new friends. First, it seems that this group of Kura Kuka people was brought back by Master Pat. Now, he does not know why Lord Viscount sent them out of Pat Manor; third Second, the Kumiao and Miao patriarch often instructed him not to go out at night, as it would be dangerous. Even Sheriff George was patrolling the streets every day during this time, telling the townspeople not to go out at night. Why
These doubts, Parsha has asked several times, but has not received a reply.
Every time they asked, all the Kura Kuka people showed expressions of fear, and no one spoke.
Now, he asked again, and Jin Cancan did the same. With a trance in his eyes, he just said, "Don't worry about this matter, curiosity will kill the cat."
After saying that, Jin Cancan was about to turn around and go upstairs.
At this time, Parsha sighed and said, "Didn't you just ask, why am I opening the door? I looked out the window just now, and I seemed to see Master Pat coming back, so I wanted to go out and confirm."
"Master Pat?" Jin Cancan stopped suddenly, turned his head sharply to look at Parsha, and asked anxiously, "Are you sure it's Master Pat? He, where did he go?"
"I'm not sure, but three people did pass by on the street outside. One of them looked like Master Pat." Parsha recalled: "Looking at their direction, it seems to be walking towards the manor. already."
"Master Pat, the manor, the night... bad!" Jin Cancan muttered a few times, jumped down the stairs suddenly, and came to Parsha's shoulder: "Quickly, open the door quickly, and hurry up to stop Master Pat. !"
Pasha looked puzzled: "What happened?"
Jin Cancan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "It's very unsafe in the manor right now."
…
Angel and others stopped dozens of meters outside the manor, with the boundary of blood in front of them. For mortals, this layer of blood cannot be seen, but they can clearly feel it.
"Is the destination in front? It looks a little dim." After Bai Xiong knew that he was about to see his relatives, his mood was much calmer than before.
From his perspective, there seems to be a shadow of buildings in Pat Manor, but there is no light. Instead, the town of Gru behind him has more lights.
Angel was able to confirm that at least when he left, the Pat Manor in the night was the brightest place in the entire Gru Town. Because of the family motto "The fire of the lion's heart will never go out", all the street lamps in the manor, It is bright all night. If there is any extinguishing, the servants will go to make up the fire as soon as possible.
Now the manor is pitch-dark, obviously abnormal.
Angel looked at Sanders.
Sanders' expression at this time was very calm, but his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his deep pupils looked ahead, as if staring at a giant beast hidden in the darkness.
"Teacher, have you found anything?" Angel asked.
Sanders didn't answer immediately, but pressed down on the brim of his hat and looked somewhere forward.
Angel's eyes followed. It was a small tree outside the manor. Now it was covered with heavy snow, and it didn't look very conspicuous... However, a gust of wind blew off some snow dust on the tree, which could be clearly seen. To the trunk is pitch black.
"A dead tree that has been burned by fire?" Angel felt it. It seemed that it was not a fire in nature. There were still some fluctuations of flame energy on the dead tree.
Because the elements of the Old Earth Continent have almost disappeared, the flame fluctuations on this tree are very obvious.
"Who will burn the tree here?" Angel looked suspicious.
Sanders said at this time: "It's not burning the tree, it's someone who fought here."
Sanders' eyes flashed with a faint light, as if from the thick layer of snow, he saw a battle that took place here not long ago.
Could it be that Huiz couldn't hold back Eureka, and there was a battle here? When Angel thought so, Sanders said, "It's a battle between two apprentices, probably with the strength of third-level apprentices."
Level 3 apprentice? Angel's eyes flashed confusion, how could there be a third-level apprentice here
When Angel was wondering, Sanders suddenly turned around and looked at the road coming from behind.
At this moment, on the way to the road, there was a man humming, a little old man with a smoking gun, his pace was very slow, and he was breathing white air while running.
"Wait, wait! Is that Master Pat?" came the shout.
The next second, a clear and pleasant female voice suddenly said: "Didn't you say it, don't shout? Are you going to kill us all?"
After a while, someone came to stand in front of them.
"Parsha, and..." Angel looked at the little guy in a floral dress on Parsha's shoulders who saluted him respectfully: "Golden?"
"How did you come together?" Angel wondered.
"Great, it's really Master Pat!" Jin Cancan's eyes flashed with happiness, but he suddenly realized something in the next second, and quickly said: "Master Pat, do you want to go back to the manor? Don't go in now, very Danger!"
Angel and Sanders looked at each other, and he looked at Jin Cancan: "The manor is very dangerous? Do you know anything?"
Jin Cancan nodded quickly: "It's Mrs. Eureka, just half a month ago, she suddenly went crazy... That night... "
Jin Cancan suddenly took a deep breath, fear flashing in his eyes.
"That night, I saw a lot of servants lying in a pool of blood. I heard other people say that even Lord Viscount was almost killed by her... Fortunately, Lord Hughes arrived in time and restrained her. already."
When Jin Cancan said that there were many servants lying in a pool of blood, Angel's expression became serious. And when she said that Leon was almost attacked, Angel's face instantly turned black.
"And then, how is Leon's situation now?" Angel hurriedly asked.
"Master Viscount is fine. He sent us out of the manor the next day, and some servants were also placed nearby. Only a few people were left in the manor, including Master Viscount." With a darker expression, Jin Cancan hurriedly said, "Master Pat, Lord Viscount came out a few days ago. According to what he said, it should be safe to have Lord Xiuyi's protection."
should? Safe for now
Angel wouldn't allow these vague words, he nodded to Jin Cancan: "I see. Grandpa Parsha, take Jin Cancan back first."
Panic flashed in Jin Cancan's eyes: "Master Pat, are you still going in? Don't, Lord Viscount said that night is the most dangerous time!"
"Don't worry, I have an idea." Angel smiled at Jin Cancan, then looked at Sanders and asked if he wanted to go in now.
Only then did Jin Cancan notice that Sanders was on the other side. When he saw Sanders, her expression was stunned. She didn't know about other people, but she had seen Sanders. Moreover, Babaya once said that Sanders was called the Southern Region. God of War, is a super powerful wizard!
Thinking of this, Jin Cancan's heart finally began to slow down.
If it is Lord Sanders, perhaps, it can really solve the crisis of Pat Manor.
On the other hand, Angel was still waiting for Sanders to speak, but suddenly, Sanders turned to look in the direction of the manor.
"She is coming."
Angel looked at Saunders' sight, but saw a red light suddenly flashed in the depths of the manor.
