Heroine’s Road to Becoming Scum: The fifty-eighth bowl of soup (8)
The fifty-eighth bowl of soup (8)
In the dark night, the snow-white castle is particularly conspicuous. I don't know why, but when they went out, the moon was still very round and big. The strange thing was that as soon as they passed through the dense grove, the moon suddenly turned into a dark blue ink color, and hung in the sky, inexplicably a little scary. .
It was summer, and it was like something hot, but now they suddenly felt a little cold.
Staring at the castle in the dark, a girl gently pulled on her boyfriend's arm: "Karl, let's not go in? I'm afraid..."
"There's nothing to be afraid of." Cal soothed his girlfriend and patted the back of her hand, still staring curiously and slightly excitedly at the legendary haunted castle. He is a college student. He likes supernatural things. He often writes for novels and magazines. He also likes to watch horror movies. Of course, his favorite is to explore various places with ghosts and legends, because he doesn't believe it at all. There will be ghosts in the world!
If there is, then he really wants to see.
The girl was a little relieved when her boyfriend held her hand. The five of them have a total of two couples, all of them are from the supernatural research club. They like these strange things the most, but the girl doesn't like it. She joined because her boyfriend Carl is the founder of this club, otherwise she would also I will never stay awake at night, or not play during a good holiday, but go on an adventure with my boyfriend and this group of people.
From time to time, there were nightingales screaming around, and their voices were indescribably sharp. They continued to walk forward. The light of the flashlight seemed to be swallowed by a gradually spreading fog, and they could only see the road three or two steps in front of them. .
The girl clutched Carl's arm tightly, so frightened that she was almost in tears. She bit her lip and stared at the ancient castle not far away.
It is said that this is the place where the greatest and best Duke of Reims lived in the Empire fifty years ago. He is handsome and handsome, and there are many ladies in the empire who have a crush on him. Later, Her Majesty the Queen made the decision and married a noble lady named Nicole to him as his wife. I heard that the duke and his wife were very in love with each other, but the happy days did not take long. One day, the entire castle disappeared suddenly!
All servants including master! Of course, including Lance-sama and his wife!
Afterwards, the Queen's Concubine ordered the father of Duke Lance's wife, Duke Abby, to investigate, but after a long investigation, there was no clue at all. The castle was quiet and dead, and Duke Abby lost his beloved daughter. Naturally, he wanted to find out the culprit, but the strange thing was that they didn't even find a corpse in the castle!
If it wasn't for the blood on the ground, they would think the Duke of Lance left with his wife and all his servants.
Of course it can't be. The Duke of Lance is from country E, and he has no reason to leave, not to mention that he has never seen them leave. Even if the Duke of Lance wants to leave with his wife, why is there no servant left in this castle?
After a long time, it became an unsolved case. Her Lady Queen is no longer entangled in this matter, and is ready to clean up the castle and give it to other ministers with meritorious deeds. But at this moment, something weird happened!
The minister who moved in moved out with the whole family within a few days, and the Queen refused to go in no matter how much she promised! The queen was helpless, and later gave the castle to many people, but no one could live in it for a whole week, basically crying and leaving after two or three days.
Over time, rumors of the castle being haunted also emerged.
Slowly, this place, once called the most beautiful castle, was completely abandoned, no one lived in it, and no one mentioned it again. It has completely become a place that people avoid talking about. exist.
Fifty years later, someone is finally ready to find out what's going on in the haunted castle.
Carl had traveled to a lot of scary places that were said to be haunted before, but was disappointed every time. He doesn't believe in ghosts in the world, but he likes ghost time very much. What he loves most is to use his own personal experience to tell about the so-called haunted places.
So he not only brought a flashlight, but also a camera, one on everyone's hat to record what he saw, otherwise how could he brag when he went out?
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came, and the girl hugged Carl in fright. Carl was also startled, and then he saw a group of bats flying out of the fog, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, don't be afraid, it's just a bat."
"Bat..." The girl couldn't help thinking of the vampire plot, she gritted her teeth and asked Carl: "Are we really not going? I think this time is different from before..."
"What's the difference? It's not a lie." Another girl named Mei said disdainfully, "Susan, if you are afraid, go back, no one will let you follow, every time you explore We are all afraid and want us to go back, how is this time different from before?"
Susan bit her lip, but she just thought it was weird this time...
"It's alright, I'll protect you, trust me, eh?"
Susan looked at Carl's face and nodded hesitantly.
Going from the fog to the castle, they thought it would take at most fifteen minutes when they were in the grove, but now they have walked for more than an hour. A boy named Mark asked Karl: "Did we go wrong?"
"Impossible, the location of the mobile phone is clearly... eh?" Carl looked at the mobile phone in shock and found that the location was not displayed. He said shyly: "It's too bad, my mobile phone is broken."
Other people took out their cell phones and looked at them. Fortunately, they were all right, which means that something was wrong with Carl's cell phone. They firmly believed that the direction was correct, so they continued to walk, and this time they finally reached the entrance of the castle smoothly.
There was a spider web hanging on the black-gold door, and the three men pushed the door open with force, and the entire living room suddenly looked extraordinarily desolate. The swimming pool outside has dried up, the careful gardeners have been lost, and the roses have all withered away. Only the huge area left shows how prosperous this castle was, and how many people are proud to be invited by it. ;
The hall is very long, there is a long table, there is no sound around, Carl said to the camera: "Look, I said that all haunted places are deceptive! I-- "
"Ah ——————!!!"
Everyone was taken aback, and when they came back to their senses, they realized that it was Mei who screamed. "What's the matter?"
May tremblingly pointed to a corner: "There, there was a woman just now, and suddenly she disappeared!"
"How is it possible, are you confused?" Mark laughed at her.
"I didn't! I'm not Susan, I don't yell at me, I'm telling the truth!" May was upset.
"Then let's walk over and take a look," said Carl, the most daring one.
They walked over cautiously, but there was nothing. When everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Susan suddenly pointed to the ground and asked, "What do you think this is?"
The floor has been covered with a layer of dust because no one has lived in it for many years, but there is a layer of black, red, black and red on the floor here. Carl bent down and twisted his fingers a little under his nose, his color suddenly changed, "It's blood!"
"That should be left by the Duke of Lance back then, that's normal!"
"Normal! How many years have passed, and the Queen has given the castle to so many people, how is it possible that there is still blood? And after so many years, how can the smell of blood still be so strong!" Mark scolded impatiently.
"Johnson, what do you think?" May turned to her boyfriend, only to find that Johnson wasn't listening to her at all, but looked behind her stupidly. "Johnson, Johnson?"
Johnson's hands are shaking too, and they've explored a lot of so-called haunted places together, but none have ever made him feel so bad. "Look...when we came...the way when we came..."
The ground is thick with dust, and there are footprints everywhere they walk, but now all those footprints are gone except their feet!
Then suddenly heard a slow tick tick, and everyone turned around again and found that blood began to drip on the long table at some point, one drop or two... It fell to the ground and became a dry black-red blood clot.
They were all terrified and even forgot to run.
"You said you've never seen a ghost?"
These words suddenly came from the dead air, and the five people were even more frightened. The least timid Susan even cried!
It was a gruesome old woman who was on crutches and appeared behind them at some point. Seeing a few young people were scared to death, the old woman let out a rattling laugh. Her face was almost indistinct, especially the facial skin, which was full of pits and pits, and countless scars were standing up and down, which looked particularly terrifying.
"Who, who are you!"
"Didn't you say you've never seen a ghost? Now I'll come out for you to take a look." The old woman laughed louder. She snapped her fingers, and there was a muffled sound all around, like the sound of fingernails scratching the wall.
The five people hugged each other and looked at the ghosts spreading out from the wall in fear. Their faces were pale and their eyes were dull, but their expressions were full of ferocity. In this way, Susan took the lead, and the other four did not hold back, and all of them rolled their eyes and fainted.
"Tsk, coward." The old woman, who was still hunched over, suddenly straightened up and stretched, "I've been dead for so many years, and I can't even scare people, so go back to the wall for me!"
The ghosts were obedient and all rolled in, the old woman thought, the time has finally come, she can go, as for the remaining ghosts... just let them go. Lance's useless **** collapsed after only a few years of death. It's not as good as Nicole, who has endured for twenty years under her torture.
The next morning, Carl found them lying outside the grove, and when they returned to school, they never spoke of supernatural things again.
