long night fire

In the past year...Jiang Baimian suddenly thought of something:

It also appears to have been almost a year since Lehman's friend Lars disappeared!

This matter is getting more and more confusing... Jiang Baimian secretly sighed, and Shang Jianyao had already changed the subject:

"How is DiMarco and his ancestors doing?"

What performance?Joseph and Paul were a little confused.

Jiang Baimian turned his eyes upwards, exhaled, and forcibly "explained":

"How did DiMarco and his ancestors rule the 'Underground Ark'?"

Joseph and Paul looked at each other, but neither spoke.

Shang Jianyao looked at them, smiled and said:

"There's no one else around."

Joseph seemed to have found support, took a deep breath and said:

"Di Marco and his ancestors had brutality in their blood.

"My parents are also from the 'Underground Ark'. One is a guard and the other is a maid. They told me that every year, a large number of servants are killed for various reasons and buried in this valley. Only a few lucky ones can survive. .”

"Are you and your parents the lucky ones?" Jiang Baimian asked very cooperatively.

Joseph shook his head slowly:

"No. DiMarco and his ancestors rarely killed guards and their families. Only in the past few years, when Mr. DiMarco lost his son, did a few guards be executed for offending him. Normally, the guards They make mistakes and give them two or three chances."

"Isn't that crazy?" Jiang Baimian commented without criticism, "What happened to DiMarco losing his son?"

Joseph recalled:

"Mr. DiMarco and his ancestors, though cruel, loved new life.

"Starting from his grandfather, each generation of 'Underground Ark' owner has a large number of partners and has many children, and chooses the most outstanding one to inherit the 'Underground Ark'.

"Moreover, they also encourage guards and maids to combine and have children."

"All..." Shang Jianyao repeated one of the words.

Joseph nodded:

"It does, at least that's what my parents told me."

He paused and continued:

"The dissatisfaction caused by the cruelty has been accumulating. After Mr. DiMarco's father became seriously ill, the servants couldn't bear it anymore and created a riot.

"This resulted in the deaths of many of Mr DiMarco's relatives, and in the end only a few survived.

"After the riot was quelled, Mr. DiMarco became the owner of the 'Underground Ark' and found many partners inside. Who knows, after many years, he only gave birth to three children. Among them, the one he loves the most is The youngest one, as a result, unfortunately, the child died of illness more than three years ago.

"During that time, Mr. DiMarco was like crazy."

1 Chapter Twenty

Shang Jianyao didn't quite agree with Joseph's description:

"Isn't he usually crazy?"

"Except for being cruel and irritable, Mr. DiMarco is normal in other aspects." Joseph argued.

Jiang Baimian didn't let Shang Jianyao argue, and asked:

"During that time, how was Mr. DiMarco's behavior different from usual?"

"Didn't I just say that?" Joseph's expression became gloomy again, as if recalling something bad, "He has become more brutal and no longer tolerant of the guards. We are trembling every day on duty. The fear is just not Carefully farted, Mr. DiMarco heard, and was ordered to die."

The other guard, Paul, echoed empathetically:

"There was a guard who was trusted by Mr. DiMarco before, and he was beaten to death because of similar trivial matters."

Joseph continued:

"In addition to these, Mr. DiMarco seems to be crazy about wanting children. Those lovers can't give birth, so he turned his attention to servant wives who have had childbearing experience... We, we are very angry, but dare not speak out.

"Fortunately, Mr. DiMarco has not maintained this state for a few years, otherwise we will also consider..."

Having said this, he paused and became wary.

Obviously, even if he thought Shang Jianyao was friendly enough, he was unwilling to reveal the dark thoughts in his heart.

If DiMarco knew about this, he would be the next one to be carried to this valley and buried hastily.

"Dimarco returned to normal because he finally had a new child?" Jiang Baimian asked with a slight frown.

The more she listened, the more she felt that DiMarco's obsession with children was abnormal and obviously pathological.

You know, apart from the one who died young, DiMarco had two biological children.

"No." Joseph denied Jiang Baimian's guess, "It may be that Mr. DiMarco slowly regained his sobriety after venting again and again, and his sobriety also rewarded him. Five months ago, a mistress of his Finally got pregnant."

"It may not be his." Shang Jianyao proposed a possibility.

"Well, we don't know." Joseph didn't help DiMarco deny it.

Jiang Baimian could tell that the guards of the "Underground Ark" had similar speculations, maybe they were secretly betting on who was the real father of the child.

She thought for a moment, then asked:

"Mr. DiMarco's other two children were girls, and the one who died was a boy?"

That was the best explanation she could think of for DiMarco's madness over the death of his youngest son.

"The one who died was indeed a boy." Joseph touched his big nose, "But the other two, one is a girl and the other is a boy."

Jiang Baimian suddenly lost his train of thought.

Shang Jian Yao eagerly asked:

"Can we follow you into the 'Underground Ark'?"

"No." Joseph and Paul shook their heads at the same time, their expressions a little frightened.

"Why?" Shang Jianyao said he couldn't understand.

Joseph quickly explained:

"There are triple inspections at every entrance, multiple guards, two of us come out, and six of us go back. There is a problem at first sight!"

What he understood was that Zhang Qubing and the others wanted to use himself and Paul to sneak into the "underground ark".

"I can communicate with them." Shang Jianyao sincerely gave the method.

Joseph still shook his head:

"It's useless, we are all afraid of Mr. DiMarco, and dare not let any outsider enter the ark without his permission.

"Moreover, cameras are installed at each checkpoint, and special guards are in charge of the monitoring room. Once a problem is discovered, the elevator and other facilities will be cut off immediately, completely isolating the ark from the outside world."

Another guard, Paul, added:

"One of Mr DiMarco's hobbies is watching surveillance.

"No one dares to be perfunctory in this regard."

It's a pity that Shang Jianyao's "reasoning clown" can't achieve a certain effect with the help of complex transformation... The camera can't collect the sound... Jiang Baimian regretted it and said with a smile:

"Have you misunderstood us unnecessarily?

"We didn't intend to use you to sneak into the 'Underground Ark', but we wanted to ask you to tell Mr. DiMarco that we would like to visit him and chat with him about things in the old world.

"This is our main purpose, other than that, there are only a few very simple problems."

Joseph and Paul breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and their bodies were no longer so tense.

The former happily asked:

"Could you introduce yourself? Mr. DiMarco should be able to ask."

"A relic hunter team, the leader is Ms. Qian Bai." Jiang Baimian introduced in Honghe language, and pointed to Bai Chen at the same time.

Joseph and Paul glanced at them, as if they were a little puzzled that the leader of the other party was the quietest and shortest one.

Jiang Baimian knew that such an introduction was not enough, so he boasted:

"It's the relic hunter team that solved the murloc envoy and saved the Red Stone Collection."

"Huh?" Both Joseph and Paul were a little dazed.

It can be seen that they are in the "underground ark", the news is relatively closed, and they don't know enough about the outside world.

Of course, this must be limited to the lower levels. Regardless of DiMarco, or his several butlers and captains of the guards, they should all know the "Qianbai Squad" who has been in the limelight in Redstone recently.

"Just introduce it to Mr. DiMarco." Jiang Baimian added.

"Okay." Joseph and Paul agreed.

Immediately afterwards, they turned their attention to the sack containing Butler Karl's body, and seemed to be hesitating whether to report back to the "Underground Ark" now, or to bury the body first.

Seeing this, Jiang Baimian said with a smile:

"Don't worry, we are all friends now, let's bury it."

friend?Team leader, how did you learn Shang Jianyao's tricks... Long Yuehong couldn't help but slander.

Reassured by the promise, Joseph and Paul turned and walked towards the cave.

After watching them disappear from sight, Jiang Baimian ordered Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong:

"Put Butler Carl's body in the trunk of the jeep."

"Ah?" Long Yuehong was about to pick up a shovel.

Jiang Baimian explained casually:

"Go back to Weller for a thorough examination to see if there is anything strange about the cause of death."

That's it... Long Yuehong really thought that the team leader decided to be a good person to the end.

At this time, Shang Jianyao looked at the cave and sighed:

"such a pity……"

"Are you thinking that you will not be able to use your ingenuity and ability as an awakened person to sneak into the 'Underground Ark' without anyone noticing?" Jiang Baimian joked with a smile, "Don't worry, now it's the courtesy first and then the soldiers."

Shang Jian Yao glanced sideways at her:

"It's a pity that I can't directly blast the door of the 'Underground Ark' with individual bazookas."

"When did you become so fierce?" Jiang Baimian was surprised for a while.

Shang Jianyao answered truthfully:

"A few minutes ago. Now it's me, fierce and reckless."

"..." Jiang Baimian looked Shang Jianyao up and down, and gave up the topic rationally.

After Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong carried the body of Butler Karl to the jeep, the "Old Tune Group" waited for a while before seeing Joseph and Paul come back.

They still wore simple-cut olive green uniforms, each carrying a submachine gun.

Seeing Shang Jianyao looking at him expectantly, Joseph said with some guilt:

"Mr. DiMarco asked me to tell you that there is nothing to talk about.

"He only communicates with bishops of the denominations he is vigilant about."

"Okay." Jiang Baimian didn't bother, after all, the real master was not in front of him.

They started to walk towards the place where the jeep was parked, Shang Jian Yao Yiyi waved goodbye to Joseph and Paul.

After the jeep drove out of the foot of Iron Mountain, Long Yuehong couldn't help asking:

"What should I do next, find a way to sneak into the 'Underground Ark'?"

While paying attention to the surrounding situation, Jiang Baimian said to himself:

"I'm thinking about a question:

"Is contact with DiMarco worth our risk of infiltrating the 'Underground Ark'?

"His ancestors may not know anything, they just have a doomsday phobia, and whether it is the issue of the Redstone traitor or Lehman's commission, it is not an important thing for us. It is natural to find out. It doesn't matter if you don't come out, anyway, we didn't make a promise, and we haven't confiscated the reward."
