The Andre family, also known as the "local family of tyrants" in Nangong's 38th generation, has been rooted in this icy snow field for more than three hundred years. They are wealthy and have a long history, and they have incredible industries and ancient roots in Europe. However, few people in the world know about the existence of this family: for more than three hundred years, this family has always followed the strict admonitions passed down from ancient times. Get involved in the world, don't try to escape this snowfield, and don't attract the attention of others-their ancestors and every patriarch believe that only in this way can the family's property be maintained, and of course their own lives.
The mottled outer wall of the old castle records the ups and downs of the family. The elegant and luxurious decoration in the old castle shows their wealth and history. The castle has undergone many renovations and hundreds of years. Modernization, but the most important part of the framework has not been changed. Obviously, each generation of this family knows what secrets are hidden under their castle: they dare not disturb the beast in this cage too much.
When it was getting late, Hao Ren saw some servants in the castle starting to run around to prepare dinner, which made the gloomy and depressed building more popular. He was curious where the servants of this place were called from: such a desolate and remote place, and still a hidden and hidden castle with a spooky atmosphere. It really does not seem to be able to recruit people casually.
Nanong Sanba has already understood the basic situation here, and naturally assumes the role of commentary: "Most of the servants in the castle are for generations. The Andrei family used their wealth to feed these people and let their descendants receive professionalism from an early age. The education of servants, in addition, they also recruit people from the outside at a high price. But even so, some people will be lost here every few years: some died in accidents, and some could not stand the atmosphere here and escaped. But anyway. ... the rich always have their own solutions. "
Hao Ren where they are staying now is the "VIP area" on the third floor of the castle. There are gorgeous rooms covered with thick velvet carpets. The rooms are decorated in a palace-like style. The firewood in the heating stove crackles. In addition, all kinds of furniture and appliances are readily available. However, this luxurious and comfortable room does not give people much peace of mind. Since the moment of entering the castle, Hao Ren has always felt an uncomfortable breath coming from his feet. He asked several other people and found that it was not an illusion .
Vivian has been in contact with the Wrath many times, and she can roughly judge the situation here: "The Wrath should be underground in the castle, but it has not completely entered the physical world. And to be honest ... this building gives people It feels weird. "
Hao Ren glanced at Vivian: "It's weird, the house looks like a prison outside."
Vivian shook his head, pushed open the window of the guest room, and looked out to the dark castle atrium outside. The two wings of the building have two rows of low and long houses extending out, forming a cage-like structure behind the castle. She looked at the darkening sky outside thoughtfully: "I am talking about something else ... I always feel like I have seen this place before."
"I don't know if you've seen it or not, anyway, I'm freezing to death," Becky jumped around the house with his arms around, then slammed the window shut, "This place is so cold! You guys Are all monsters? "
Lily was lying in front of the fireplace staring at the flames in a daze at the moment, and he raised his head and threw a disdainful look at Becky: "You can't stand the temperature? I feel the temperature is comfortable!"
Vivian **** his mouth: "This is really added by the ancestors as soon as it is close to the Arctic Circle. At this time, it is estimated that a sledge can run out of eighty steps."
The night is gradually coming, but in this place that is already close to the Arctic Circle, the polar day and night phenomenon can still affect the daily work and rest here. The sun gradually moved closer to the horizon and no longer continued to sink. Instead, it stubbornly trapped a feeble ray of weak sunlight on the earth. The castle did not light up under this ray of sunlight, but became more gloomy because of the dim light.
Hao Ren had dinner in the guest room. After doing nothing, he decided to go for a stroll in the corridor outside.
Outside the room is a straight corridor with dark red carpet. Many portraits are hanging on both sides of the corridor, and the portraits here are no longer full-length portraits, but the kind of portraits mounted on oval mirror frames. These rigid figure paintings are very weird under the warm-colored lights. Hao Ren whispered while walking on this corridor: he could n’t understand the tyrants who hang figure paintings in the corridor of his home. My mental quality is still very good. What should I do is that such a long aisle is spooky, and the old ancestors who have two rows of zombie faces have to post the posters, just put the posters, and add two and a half bright ones next to each poster It ’s not a dim light bulb. It ’s a lot of people coming out to the toilet in the middle of the night. In case of a bad lamp, it ’s a rhythm of walking all the way ...
Outside the castle is the cold night wind of tens of degrees below zero in Siberia, but inside the castle is still warm and pleasant. Hao Ren wobbled in the hallway in the hallway and suddenly stopped.
He has been counting portraits of the ancestors of the Andre family, passing from the youngest generation (that is, the father of Andre ’s current patriarch Igor), and looking at those from the Bolshevik period, Alexander The faces of the period and the Ekaterina period cast a cold sight on themselves in the elliptical frames, and unconsciously they had reached the end of the corridor.
A weird portrait hangs on the wall facing the corridor:
Unlike the oval frames on both sides of the corridor, this portrait is a full-length portrait of a woman in a black dress, standing against a dark red rose background. However, the woman's face was shrouded in a layer of black gauze.
The portraits of Andrea ’s ancestors on both sides of the corridor are marked with their names and eras in a unified format, but this bizarre female body has only a simple word like this: ведьма (魔女)
This strange thing immediately aroused the interest of Hao Ren. He began to study the portraits of the characters on both sides and the introductory text below the portraits, and finally confirmed that the old man with a white beard hung on his left hand was the first ever recorded by Andrea ’s ancestors. An ancestor, and the woman hanging her face on the wall in front of her eyes should not be a member of the Andre family.
She is not a member of this family. She does n’t even have a name. She is simply marked as a "witch", but she is hung at the beginning of all Andrea ’s ancestors.
Hao Ren just wanted to go back and greet Vivian and others to see the situation here, but suddenly heard a noise coming from somewhere.
The sound seemed to come from a room on the higher floor of the castle. Although it was quite weak under the thick walls, it was still audible. It sounds like someone is crying, there is a crisp sound of falling cups and saucers in the middle, and there is a huge sound of furniture falling, and there are many people crying, dissuading, and screaming in the middle of these sounds. Noise. This tumultuous movement continued for a few minutes before calming down. Finally, Hao Ren vaguely heard the sound of closing the heavy iron door, and all the noise was isolated.
Hao Ren suddenly felt a stranger's breath beside him, and immediately turned his head alertly, but he was suddenly startled: a white figure didn't know when to appear behind him, like a wandering Stand there!
When he looked closely, he realized that it was not a wandering spirit, but a young, skinny girl in a white dress. The other party seemed to be seriously ill, and his face was pale and vain, and she couldn't help but dangling involuntarily even when she was standing there. She narrowed her shoulders and looked at Hao Ren for a while. "Have you heard the voice upstairs?"
Hao Ren patted his chest, and said that even if he had experienced a different world war and then encountered this situation, it would still be awkward: these two kinds of horror are not just a style of painting, and experience cannot seem to be accumulated. Then he looked at the strange girl in front of him curiously: "Ah ... are you?"
He doesn't know the person in front of him, but according to the dress of the other party, he should not be a servant in the castle.
The young girl did n’t seem to hear Hao Ren ’s words, she just listened to the movements upstairs with a weird smile on her face: “That ’s my brother ... heh ... Andrea ’s last male, if He ca n’t survive this year, this prison should collapse! "
Then she suddenly looked up at Hao Ren: "Are you here to catch ghosts?"
"Er ... It's true." Hao Ren made the other person's pale eyes stare a little hairy. He realized that the girl's intellect might be in question. At this time, he just wanted to hurry and leave quickly
"Hey--I came to cheat my money again ..." The young girl grinned, "Okay, okay, it's all cursed, you all deceived ... Witches can't spare us , And I ca n’t spare you ... all cheated! "
Hao Ren ears stand upright: "Which one is the witch?"
At this time, the girl ’s madness seems to have started. She no longer listens to Hao Ren ’s question, but whispers away gradually, only to hear the intermittent voice coming out of her mouth. Come: "... the money was scammed, and it was also scammed away ... the people who spend the money, the people who can't die ... the prison will collapse, it will collapse, it will collapse ..."
