"Where is this place?"

The beams of light passed through the cobweb-strewn hall, fine particles floated in the air, and the decorations that could not be seen from the accumulation of dust were arranged in an orderly manner beside the road. Two pairs of sword-holding armor stood on both sides of the wide straight ladder, like guardians. The soldiers here are average.

Hai Li swung the flashlight around, and noticed that the leader wanted to go up, so she couldn't help but step forward to stop the other party from asking.

"I don't know, but looking at it like this, it must have been abandoned for a long time. Now it's windy and rainy outside, why don't we just find a place to rest here." The leader arranged to wipe the water off his head.

"I don't know where it is, so let's just find a place in the lobby. It might be dangerous to go up." Lu Mo, who was standing by the side and trying to see what's on the second floor with a flashlight, suddenly turned around and faced the leader who stepped out. That foot indicated something.

The leader listened to the two girls singing and couldn't hold back, but still insisted on not letting go.

"It's because you don't know if there is any danger upstairs, so you need to investigate clearly. Otherwise, would you dare to rest in peace? If you don't understand anything, don't command blindly. Go! Go up and have a look!"

Chu Chen, who walked to the side to observe the thickness of the dust, raised his eyebrows. This was clearly telling them that there was a mystery on the second floor.

Under the NPC's explicit instructions, there is no reason not to go up and have a look. Everyone followed the leader and went up the straight ladder. The stairs were separated at the end, one left and one right.

The second floor is not as dangerous as they expected, at least on the surface it looks like ordinary corridors and doors, except that the floor is still dusty and dilapidated, nothing unusual can be seen.

"What do you see?" Ding He and Chu Chen deliberately fell behind when they came up. Seeing that Chu Chen seemed to be grinding the dust in his hands, Ding He felt that the other party should have discovered some problems like himself.

"This place doesn't seem to have been abandoned for a long time." Chu Chen frowned and recalled the environment he observed just now. Although it seemed to be covered with cobwebs and full of dust, the dilapidation of the objects under the cover of dust was far less than it seemed on the surface. So powerful, to put it simply, it's more like someone deliberately covered these things with a thick layer of dust, pretending to be in disrepair and abandoned for a long time.

"Yes, and, I always think these decorations are interesting." Ding He glanced at the decorations that appear in each section, some are vases and some are statues, but occasionally there are some strange shapes covered with black cloth , obviously with ulterior motives.

Of course, they should not be the only ones who have noticed this, but no one has ventured to investigate yet.

"Well, besides, since this castle pays so much attention to decoration, isn't it strange that there are no paintings?" Including the corridor on the second floor where they are now going, and the wall of the straight staircase, it is reasonable to say that it is a good place to hang pictures. With so much emphasis on home decor, how could such an important item be missed.

Ding He looked around, let alone really, didn’t see a pair, not even a decorative painting, the wall was pasted with dark wallpaper, and they were here for the first time, so at first glance, they wouldn’t notice the lack of decoration draw this.

As soon as the team leader went upstairs, he went straight to each room, opened the door to take a look, and then went to the next room. After turning around, he found nothing. Except for the front few rooms, there were no beds, only bookcases, tables and chairs, which looked like lounges on weekdays. From the back, there are bedrooms with different decorations. The same thing is that they are all extremely luxurious, and from time to time, you can see the personal belongings left by the previous owner.

"There's nothing there." Haili and her partner Chao Li followed the team leader and went around almost every room. Except for some strange objects in some rooms, they didn't even see a ghost, let alone danger.

"It's unlucky to look at a place with nothing." Baizhang whispered after him. He passed a room just now and found a lot of jewelry on the dressing table. There were dark red bloodstains all over the bottom, so the house was definitely not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

At this time, the team leader who had finished his round seemed to have settled a mind, and instead of answering Hai Li's words, he returned to the corridor and announced with a big wave of his hand.

"Okay, the higher-ups have also checked that there is no danger. You can deal with it tonight and live casually. When the rain stops outside, you will find those who got lost."

"Live casually?" Chu Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Nonsense, I don't know which year the house was abandoned, and no one cares about it. I will sleep wherever I like, and I will be at the door. I will call you when the rain stops. That's fine, let's disband." The team leader repeated impatiently, Really turned around and went downstairs to the main entrance.

The testers who kept the flashlights subconsciously exchanged glances with each other. Most of them were not too surprised. Frowning, they began to discuss with their teammates. Some people chose to continue to look around, and then scattered up.

Chu Chen and Ding He also found a corner on the second floor and began to sum up the current situation. Excluding the two of the actual testers who followed them, there were 13 people in total. Alone.

Among the six groups, the blond Lu Mo, whom he was more impressed with, had two people there, and the second group, Teng Yin and Xiao Yuan, who reminded him that it was going to rain, were also there, but the group of twins who walked into the leader's tent was surprisingly few. Chu Chen couldn't tell whether it was the elder brother or the younger brother who was following, but the other party remained calm all the time, as if he didn't particularly care that his brother didn't keep up.

And Xi Mo's group, who had been fighting with him because of fetching water, also followed. The other one in the group was also a boy. Chu Chen remembered that the introduction said that the other party was called Tu Meng. He has a face, but judging from his body shape, his force value should not be low.

For the remaining groups, he checked with Ding He, which were Hai Li's No.11 group, the chunky boy Bai Zhang's ninth group, and Yu Rong's sixth group.

When he entered the room just now, Baizhang seemed to have noticed something. After the team leader said he was disbanding, he took the short boy who was in his group and followed him downstairs. He didn't even intend to stay on the second floor. The group followed suit.

The two groups of Hai Li and Xi Mo should be attracted by the clues of objects in some rooms, so they rushed to several rooms with a purpose. The eighth group of twins actually chose a study in the lounge After walking in, there were only three groups of Lu Mo, Xiao Yuan and Ding He left in the corridor.

Lu Mo was still talking to his companion Lu Bu, but Xiao Yuan pulled Teng Yin, who seemed reluctant, and walked straight towards Chu Chen and the others.

"Sorry to bother you." Walking closer, Xiao Yuan leaned slightly and said softly.

"Before, I was very grateful to Mr. Chu for reminding us to prepare."

"You're welcome, you also reminded me that it's going to rain." Chu Chen added that sentence at the time purely because he didn't want to owe favors. Since the other party could observe the rain clouds in the sky, he believed that the chain effect of rising water could not have been unexpected.

"I don't know if I can take the liberty to ask, Mr. Chu, where are you going to sleep tonight?" Probably feeling that Chu Chen was not enthusiastic, Xiao Yuan's expression became softer and reserved.

Chu Chen was a little surprised that Xiao Yuan would ask such a question. He thought that the other party should come here to discuss something, but he didn't expect it to be so direct.

This time, before Chu Chen could speak, Ding He took the lead in practicing Tai Chi.

"That, in fact, we didn't think about it, we planned to go around and make a decision."

Xiao Yuan nodded, didn't say any more, and after expressing his thanks again, he dragged Teng Yin away again. Teng Yin had a tugging expression of being too lazy to care about you from the beginning to the end, and he didn't move slightly until he turned around. Move your lips.

Seeing that the two had gone far away, they chose a room and went in, so Chu Chen and Ding He picked up the flashlights and continued to look around. During this period, Lu Mo and the others also chose to go downstairs, and only two of them remained in the corridor.

"What did she just say?" Chu Chen faintly felt that Teng Yin should have said something when he turned around, but he hadn't learned lip language, so he really couldn't guess it for a while, but he might know if he just hugged Ding He mentality asked.

"She said don't stay outside to sleep at night." The beam of the flashlight in Ding He's hand stopped on the dark wall, and Chu Chen squinted and noticed a mark of different shades under the floating ash.

"Do you think we should trust them?"

Chu Chen didn't answer right away, grabbed the flashlight, put on a pair of climbing gloves found out of his luggage, and touched the wall lightly to make sure that he was right. There were indeed traces of hanging things on the wall. .

Chu Chen took off the flashlight, gently tapped the wall with his ungloved hand, and said finally.

"Believe it or not, let's see what we found."

"Yes." Ding He nodded, and continued forward with a flashlight. The two of them checked carefully one by one, and sure enough, they found that there were marks left by hanging paintings on every section of the wall, but the paintings were nowhere to be found.

"Maybe we can look for a room with paintings." Thinking that we haven't found a decorative painting so far, Chu Chen couldn't help speculating.

At this time, Xi Mo's group walked out from a room, and Ding He said simply when he saw this.

"Yes, after all, there are so many paintings, I have to find a place to put them, let's go, and then go around the house."
