Chapter 695 The Young Lady and the Repairman (25)
Time seemed to have stopped flowing, the endless night continued, and the continuous heavy rain seemed to drown the whole world.
Luo Xuan was leaning on a chair and fell into a half-asleep state when she was woken up.
"Miss Luo, Miss Luo."
Luo Xuan opened her eyes in a daze and saw Lan Pigeon.
Lan Pigeon said: "Mr. Luo is gone."
Luo Xuan came to her senses. She stood up and looked around the room. Shi Li was standing at the door, trying to open it, but failed.
In this room, only she, Lan Pigeon and Shi Li were left.
Luo Xiao and Luo Mianmian were gone.
Shi Li looked a little serious. He turned around and said, "The door is locked from the outside."
Luo Xuan asked, "What happened?"
Lan Pigeon replied, "After we woke up, we found that Mr. Luo and the other Miss Luo were missing. According to the current situation, we seem to be trapped here."
Everyone had been up all night for who knows how long, and they were always in a state of nervousness. They were huddled in a room and felt a little relieved. It was Luo Xiao who told them to take a good rest for the time being, maybe they would be safe when the sun rose.
Unexpectedly, they just closed their eyes and squinted for a while, and Luo Xiao and Luo Mianmian disappeared.
Luo Xuan said: "Are we abandoned?"
Shi Li replied subconsciously: "Sister can't abandon me."
Luo Mianmian and Shi Li have been dependent on each other for so long, there is no reason for her to abandon Shi Li, and there are invisible dangers outside. If they go out, aren't they afraid of encountering danger?
No matter what, Lan Pigeon is not going to sit and wait for death. He said directly: "Knock the door open."
Shi Li doesn't like Lan Pigeon. Lan Pigeon can also feel that Shi Li has a hidden hostility towards him, but he doesn't care. After all, Shi Li is still young, and he doesn't intend to argue with Shi Li.
But in this case, they still need to work together.
Lan Pigeon and Shi Li broke through the door, and the dark and deep corridor appeared in front of everyone.
Lan Pigeon thought he was the oldest here, and he was a man, so he naturally walked in front. Shi Li followed Luo Xuan. The boy was still relaxed, but his eyes were vaguely observing the dangers that might appear around him. Shi
Li's experience determined that his temperament was not as sound as that of ordinary people of his age. It was probably because of the life-and-death crises he had faced many times in the past ten years that he was able to remain calm in such dangerous and bizarre moments.
There were half-dried mud footprints on the floor, going back and forth, as if someone was constantly wandering here and couldn't find a way out.
Lan Pigeon asked in a low voice: "What on earth is this?"
"It's probably left behind by the figure we saw before." Luo Xuan said: "I always feel... that it doesn't look like a human..."
Shi Li said: "I saw a wedding photo in a strange room. The man in the photo looks very similar to the figure I saw."
Lan Pigeon asked: "Wedding photo?"
Shi Li said: "It is a black and white wedding photo, and it should have a long history."
Luo Xuan immediately said: "The first owner of the manor."
Lan Pigeon looked at Luo Xuan and motioned her to continue.
Luo Xuan said: "I heard from my mother that my great grandfather was the first owner of the manor. Because my great grandmother liked the scenery here, my great grandfather built the manor here, and this manor is their wedding house."
In fact, they had been married for a long time, but they moved to this small place to hold the wedding because of the war.
However, not long after, on the day of their wedding, my great grandfather, who was in poor health, accidentally fell into the water by the lake. At that time, my great grandmother found out that she was pregnant.
She sorted out her mood, dealt with my great grandfather's funeral, and moved away from this sad place.
Luo Xuan said: "After Grandpa died, Grandma had their wedding room sealed. I saw the architectural drawings of the manor in Dad's study. It was right there, and it should be the sealed room."
She pointed to the deep corridor on the second floor, where the mud footprints were densest.
Shi Li said: "The room I found before is the wedding room."
But this is not in line with common sense. The room has been sealed, so why can he open it easily?
At this time, they have reached the first floor. The door was locked from the outside and could not be opened or pushed. Now they can be sure that it was Luo Xiao who left and locked them here.
Blue Pigeon tried to smash the glass of the window, but the house seemed to be wrapped in a magical power. No matter how hard he tried, no crack appeared on the glass.
Although the three people didn't understand why Luo Xiao kept them in there, they were sure that if they didn't leave, something bad would happen.
In the rainy night, Luo Mianmian held an umbrella and helped Luo Xiao walk to the water's edge. Even with the umbrella, their clothes were soaked by the rain.
Luo Mianmian wiped the water off her face and asked, "Dad, why did we come here?"
Not long ago, she was awakened by Luo Xiao. Luo Xiao covered her mouth and told her not to make any sound, and then led her out. Luo Xiao didn't let her bring a hair dryer. She just thought Luo Xiao had something to tell her, but the farther she was from the house, the more she felt something was wrong.
Luo Xiao stood on the shore and coughed. Then he said, "Mianmian, you've heard the story about your great-grandfather, right?"
Luo Mianmian nodded. "Yes, I have. My great-grandfather slipped and fell into the water and died. Dad, is there any hidden story behind this?"
It is normal for people to die in such a big lake. However, standing beside the not-so-peaceful lake on a rainy night, Luo Mianmian felt fear for no reason.
Luo Xiao said, "When your great-grandmother was dealing with her funeral, she threw all your great-grandfather's valuable things into the lake as a burial companion. Those are all good things. If you take any of them out and sell them, they can be worth a lot of money."
Luo Mianmian was stunned, "But...how can we get the things at the bottom of the lake out?"
Now even she felt that this lake was very dangerous. Is it possible to get things from it that are a hundred years old?
"That's why I brought so many people to the manor." Luo Xiao's eyes were cold, "The people in the lake have been lonely for too long. As long as I offer him tribute, he can give me certain benefits."
Luo Mianmian felt cold, "Dad, what do you mean?"
"Everyone in the house is a sacrifice to him."
