Chapter 135 The legacy in the castle (8)

"Oh, my child."

Mrs. Kloster walked slowly to Xia Lingge, stretched out her hand and touched her cheek gently: "What are you talking about? Those properties are left to you, to the heirs of Lord Kloster, how can I Fighting? And I believe that no matter which of you inherits this inheritance, my children will live in peace."

She tucked the ends of her hair behind her ears: "Okay, go back and rest quickly. I heard from the housekeeper that you and the little Duke were injured in an accident on the way to the banquet. You need to take a good rest, you know?"

Mrs. Kloster's eyes were gentle and gentle, and there was no trace of the slightest hint of viciousness and greed. Xia Lingge lowered her eyelids and glanced at the trash can in the corner without leaving a trace, then nodded and turned to leave.

"child."

Mrs. Kloster suddenly stopped her, her gentle eyebrows seemed to contain a special meaning: "Good night, sweet dreams."

"Good night, mother."

Xia Lingge exited the study and came to the hall. The other players had already gathered. The butler brought a few sticks of incense and walked to them. He said respectfully: "Misses and young masters, tonight is the first night that Lord Kloster passed away." , please put in this stick of incense and pray for Lord Kloster.”

Luo Yan took the incense and said, "We will."

"I wish you all good dreams."

The butler stepped back and left.

Luo Yan, Liu Shiyi, Bai Weiwei and Shen Yu Sicheng stared at the incense on the table. Bai Weiwei asked hesitantly: "Do we...really want to light these incense?"

"It's better not to order."

Luo Yan said: "Who knows what these incense candles are used for. It's better to use less of the things in the game."

Bai Weiwei nodded: "Then, I won't order it either."

Shen Yu cooperated: "Me too."

Luo Yan's eyes swept across them: "There is nothing much gained today. Everyone should go back and rest. I hope the heavy rain will stop tomorrow so we can go outside to search."

Everyone returns to their rooms.

The candlelight is faint.

The blood-stained white gauze was unraveled in circles. Sicheng took the medicine box and took out the hemostatic medicine and changed Xia Lingge's dressing. The pain this time was much milder than the first time, but she still twisted slightly. eyebrow.

"All right."

Sicheng changed the clean gauze, threw the blood-stained cotton swabs and tissues into the trash can, put the medical box back to its original place, looked at the incense candles on the table, and asked, "Are we really not going to light incense?"

"A little." Xia Lingge said, "But half a dozen is enough."

Si Cheng broke the incense candle into two pieces according to her instructions, picked up half of the incense, lit it and inserted it into the incense burner on the bedside table: "Senior sister, are we going to take some risks? If other players don't light it, then we... "

"Will not."

Xia Lingge said softly: "Every step in the game is a pit. They know that lighting incense will be dangerous, but they don't know if it will be more dangerous if they don't light incense, so they will still do things according to the butler's instructions, but Be more cautious.”

She suddenly remembered something and turned to Si Cheng, patting the soft bed: "Are you used to sleeping inside or outside?"

"I...I...I..."

Si Cheng's ears turned red when he was asked: "I won't sleep, senior."

As if to prove the authenticity of his words, Si Cheng opened the bookcase and found two books in Greek translation. "You can sleep peacefully." He said, "I will keep watch."

The rain outside the window was falling more and more intensively, and the crackling on the glass was like an ancient clock urging people to die.

There was only one candlestick burning with fire left in the room, and the other half of the room was as dark as a beast's maw of a devouring abyss.

suddenly.

'tick--'

'Tick-tock--' Xia Lingge, who was sleeping quietly, suddenly opened her eyes. Her cold gaze faintly swept across the surrounding darkness. She slowly sat up and looked at Sicheng. He leaned on the back of the chair and fell asleep at some point. Even the slight sound of the book in his hand falling to the ground did not wake him up.

She turned back to look at the counter. The burning incense candle had long been extinguished, leaving only a thin layer of incense ash.

The 'ticking' sound outside the door approached quietly.Xia Lingge lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked quietly to the door and stood still. The ticking sound stopped in front of the door, and a damp and cold feeling spread to Xia Lingge through the wooden door.

'Crack--'

'Crack--'

The door handle is turning.

Xia Lingge pressed the doorknob with her left hand, and with a turn of her right hand, the dagger suddenly appeared. The red pattern became darker and darker, like flowing blood under the reflection of the candlelight.

The doorknob stopped moving.

Xia Lingge put the dagger he was holding on the doorknob. The sound of the iron tool was particularly harsh and loud in the quiet night.

"what happened?"

When Sicheng woke up and saw Xia Lingge standing at the door of the house, he was suddenly startled.

"There seems to be something outside."

Xia Lingge answered him.

The last bit of sleepiness in Si Cheng also ran away. He stared at the door panel solemnly, stretched out his fingertips to explore the cracks in the door, "She must have left."

"How do you know?" Xia Lingge asked.

Si Cheng replied: "Because my natural skill is related to [Protection], I can sense the traces of monsters within a certain range."

Xia Lingge sighed: "It's quite practical."

Si Cheng smiled, and then said to Xia Lingge sadly, "I'm sorry, senior sister, I have troubled you again."

Xia Lingge shook his head: "It's nothing, but when did you fall asleep? Did you hear anything before you fell asleep?"

"Sound?" Si Cheng was stunned for a moment when he was asked, then he frowned and thought seriously, "I didn't hear anything, and I don't know how I fell asleep."

He paused and his eyes fell on the burned out incense burner.

"Sure enough, every step leads to a pit."

Si Cheng turned to Xia Lingge: "Senior, go and rest. I will definitely not fall asleep again this time."

8:00 am
The slender minute hand and second hand overlapped at twelve, and the dull sound of ancient bells echoed throughout the castle. The sky was still dark outside the window, and raindrops pattered against the glass.

Breakfast is warm milk and toast, with sweet salad dressing and strawberry jam neatly placed on the right side of the table, along with fried eggs and fresh vegetables.Xia Lingge sat on the chair and looked at the people who came down one by one without revealing anything.

Liu Shiyi and Shen Yu both looked good, but Luo Yan's eyes were a little blue, and although Bai Weiwei's condition looked good, her brows never relaxed.

They all sat down around the table, and no one except Shen Yu picked up a knife and fork to eat.

"How did everyone sleep yesterday?"

Luo Yan crossed his fingers and put them under the bridge of his nose, asking with a somewhat deep expression.

"Great."

Shen Yu ate very happily.

Luo Yan glanced at him and then ignored him: "What about you?" His eyes swept over Xia Lingge and Sicheng, and finally fell on Bai Weiwei for a moment.
