066 White Castle
After the huge convoy entered the range of the Hongze Wetland Wizard Academy, even the ferocious beasts pulling the carts became cowering. They slowed down and choked up their voices, as if they were overwhelmed by the weird atmosphere here.
In the end, all the beast carts stopped in the small square in front of the white castle. Lei Meng, who was sitting next to the driver, waited for the beast cart to stop before he realized that his clothes had long been soaked in thick fog, and his cold skin was stuck on the ground. body, it is very uncomfortable.
What made Raymond very strange was that after entering this building complex, he didn't see any moving creatures under the cover of dense fog, and the deathly silence made his palpitations even more intense.
The beast cart carrying Margaret stopped directly at the gate of the white castle, and Margaret, who was wrapped in a scarlet robe, walked in quickly after getting out of the car.
Immediately after the coachman's notification of knocking on the carriage, the teenagers who got off one after another also got out of the beast carriage. Everyone had inexplicable expressions on their faces, observing the white castle in front of them.
Lei Meng, who was about to get out of the car, heard the sound of hoofbeats in vain, and a horse ran out from the thin red mist.
But the moment Raymond looked at the horse, his breathing stopped instantly, because the brisk pace of the horse didn't have any flesh and blood on its body, only the white skeleton, just where the head and eyes were originally. , flashing two clusters of faint red light.
In vain, as if feeling Raymond's gaze, the skeleton horse turned its head and pointed the right side of its head at Raymond.
A hoarse voice appeared in Raymond's ears in an instant. "newcomer?"
Raymond, who had a dry throat, numb scalp, and narrowed his eyes, was also frightened by the skeleton horse.
As if looking at Raymond, the skeleton horse stared at Raymond for a moment, as if losing interest, it raised its legs and walked towards other beast carts, and soon horrified shouts rang out from the square. .
"Don't pay attention to that horse!" Margaret, who had gone and returned, soon appeared at the gate of the castle, and she shouted at the panicked teenagers who were frightened by the skeleton horse. "Come to me to get the number plate, and then gather in the lobby!"
Margaret's words made the teenagers move, and they ran into the gate of the castle as if they were running away from the skeleton horse.
And Raymond was the one who ran at the front. When he entered the gate of the castle, he got a wooden sign the size of a palm from Margaret's hand.
After everyone got the number plate from Margaret's hand, Margaret turned around and entered the castle, ignoring the skeleton horse standing at the door.
As if irritated by Margaret's powerlessness, the skeleton horse stood at the gate of the castle in ancient Torres language, yelling angrily, swearing like a shrew.
Margaret, the wizard standing in the middle of the hall, was immediately trembling from the scolding of the skeleton horse, followed by the angry Margaret, who took off her robe, threw it on the sofa in the hall, and threw it on the sofa. Her terrifying neck and jaw were revealed.
At this time, the teenagers who were still in shock had gathered in the middle of the dark hall and stood not far behind Margaret.
After Lei Meng looked around, his eyes fell on the fireplace in the corner. The flames burning inside were very fierce, and the temperature in the hall also diffused the water vapor rising from everyone's bodies. become blurred.
The furious Margaret finally couldn't bear the scolding of the skeleton horse, and she yelled at the people sitting in the corner. "I swear, if you don't stop this dead horse, I'll tear it apart again!"
The person lying in front of the fireplace slowly turned around. The teenagers who had been frightened by the skeleton horse immediately suffered from a more severe fright. The delicate girl in a white robe standing next to Raymond immediately softened. He fell to the ground, fainted from fright.
And Rebecca, who had been by Raymond's side all the time, also hid behind him trembling, and tightly grabbed the corner of Raymond's clothes with her little hands, shivering.
Raymond, who narrowed his eyes, was also a little frightened, because the old woman who turned around was frightening.
A long, shriveled face with a lot of wrinkles. The left cheek looks like an old woman, but the right side has skinless muscle tissue, blue blood vessels, black meridians, and bright red muscle tissue. Speaking, the muscles on the old woman's cheeks squirmed.
"Quack quack, it turns out that little Margaret came back with the children," her body was shaking comfortably on the recliner, holding an old black cat in her hand. "Don't mind, this is not the first time this dead horse has done this, it will go back immediately!"
Following the old woman's opening, the scolding of the skeleton horse outside the door disappeared instantly, followed by the crisp sound of horse hooves, and the only thing lingering in my ears was the crackling sound from the fireplace.
It wasn't until the sound of horseshoes completely disappeared that Margaret, who was standing in the middle of the hall, took another deep breath, followed her and turned to the boys standing in the hall, explaining that this old woman, Susie, was the manager of the castle. Otherwise, she will arrange the rooms for everyone, and she will come over tomorrow morning to arrange other matters.
Margaret, who was still furious after speaking, walked directly through the hall, left the castle and walked away.
In the dead hall, no one dared to speak, and an indescribable feeling of heart palpitations made Lei Meng a little dazed.
The sound of crackling wood, mixed with the sound of creaking rocking chairs, a weird atmosphere spread in the hall, and finally a younger little girl couldn't bear the dull weirdness and sobbed.
"Oh, oh, I almost forgot to arrange your rooms," Susie, an old woman lying on the rocking chair, finally came to her senses, and she patted the black cat curled up in her arms. "Arrange for them to go to the room."
The black cat held in the arms of the old woman Susie had shiny black fur. It stood up impatiently from the arms of the old woman Susie, and let out a low whimper.
Following the rustling sound, more than a dozen little black cats ran out from the surrounding rooms and came into Raymond's sight.
These black cats that just appeared are petite, but each of their four paws are pure white.
"Children, take them to the room." The old cat muttered in ancient Torris, and then the creepy old cat curled up again in the arms of the old woman Susie.
Lei Meng, who was shivering all over, watched as one of the little black cats ran to his feet. It raised its head and sniffed, and then walked upstairs with elegant cat steps.
Raymond, who followed behind, was quickly taken to the third floor. The little black cat who led the way knocked on the door of that room, and then quickly ran away.
The wooden sign in Lei Meng's hand felt faintly hot, and the door opened automatically right after...;
