Chapter 328: (1/2)
The flower beds placed at the two ends of the corridor a few years ago are missing, and they should have died and been disposed of.
Everything in the old house seemed to stay on the day I left, as if it had escaped the traces of the passage of time.
It is still the same as it was many years ago. The cracked deep red clay wall tells the memories of this old building. Everything seems to have happened yesterday. The harmonious family of four is within reach. In the blink of an eye, everything is fragmented and turned into vain. The mirror flower water and moon.
The first floor is the maid’s room, which contains the study and dining hall, the second floor is the guest room, the third floor is the living area for the family, and the fourth floor is the room for stacking garbage and sundries. There is nothing on the first floor. But a place worth exploring. After so many years, the adoptive mother should still be in her room.
After turning around on the first floor and confirming that there was no change in the layout of the old building, he walked up to the second floor. Before he reached the second floor, he found a large locked cabinet at the entrance of the corridor.
Judging from the placement, it doesn't seem to be used to get in the way.
Ji Bai rubbed his chin, took out [Silver Throne], and knocked the iron lock which was not strong enough with the weight ball.
”Cracking accompanied the rusty door shaft with an unpleasant sound, and the peeling wooden cabinet door was opened.
”Kang Dang Kang Dang!.” The stone steps sounded a heavy knock, and the things on the cabinet door lost their support, and rolled out from it. Then there was some dim light on the second floor. The pointed hammer had some traces of rust on the pointed cone. Ji Bai hurriedly held his breath to confirm that his movements did not attract anyone's attention. At the same time, the word pointed cone also subconsciously evoked what Mu Falcon had said before.
Everyone gave out the pointed hammers. The servants couldn't bear to use the old gentle and kind old lady. Did they put all the distributed pointed hammers in the wooden cabinet?
Suddenly, what happened in his mind, Ji Bai seemed to understand something for a moment, and was stunned for a moment.
Immediately after a period of contemplation, Ji Bai silently put the dropped pointed hammer back into the cabinet, his movements were not intimidating, and he was not even afraid that his movements would attract the attention of others in the old building.
After finishing all this and barely closing the cabinet door, Ji Bai ignored the second floor and walked directly to the third floor.
The lights on the third floor are turned on. There is nothing weird about changing from the past. From this point of view, there are indeed people living here.
Ji Bai passed by the room between himself and Ji Yue, without stopping to watch, went straight to the room at the end of the corridor where the foster mother was.
”Oh
The door was not locked, the old i-axis made a sour sound, and the sun pounced along the floor-to-ceiling windows into the dim room. The sleeping room seemed to be awakened at this moment.
or small bowl
The rocking chair with its back turned to itself seemed to be leaning against a figure, it looked up at the sunlight coming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, as if it didn't feel the door being opened.
Ji Bai approached, the figure on the rocking chair still didn't react at all. The dim light made it impossible to see his face. From her figure, she seemed to be an elderly woman.
Similar to the figure in the memory, but a little strange, Ji Bai was not in a hurry, he walked in slowly.
The sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the shriveled face seems to be sunken, the flesh and blood is almost flattened, and the embryonic form of the skeleton can be seen faintly, and the two eyeballs are horribly inserted into the eye sockets, as if they will fall out at any time. , The whole face was blue, as if it had been poisoned.
As if feeling someone looking at it, the horrified face in the woman's clothes turned his head slowly, and two shaky eyes fixed on the Xuangang armor.
”Kacha!” Then Ji Bai flew to the head with a punch.
”Fancy and fancy.” Ji Bai moved his wrist and glanced at the concealed door. ”If you invite guests, don’t you even want to give a cup of tea?’
Haha, don't worry, sir, this is just a little joke, please be generous. ”There was a moment of silence, and the concealed door was pushed open, and the man was smiling kindly on his face, holding a tea tray in his hand.
”You knew I was in that room a long time ago?” Ji Bai calmly sat on the table with his legs crossed, facing his nominal ‘brother-in-law’.
”I don't need to spend a lot of time in this performance, just invite me out.
”Mr. is so courageous. After seeing through the game I arranged, I chose to go to the meeting alone and admire it.” Mu Falcon walked to Ji Bai very familiarly, and set the tea tray aside and sat down.
”There is no ghost in my heart, why don't you dare?” Ji Bai picked up the tea and poured a mouthful into the crevice of his helmet. ”But I’m very curious about why I used this method to ‘please’ me to the appointment.’
