"What are we doing?" Benson asked, looking at Martin.
"Uh—protect the young master?" Martin said, standing beside the carriage quite consciously, with Seven Sins by his side.
"No, if you feel tired, go back to the carriage and rest for a while. It's fine with Arnold and the Seven Sins... You two won't reject me, right?" Tranton's voice came from the carriage.
"Of course not, Master Tranton." The Seven Sins fully demonstrated what it means to be a jerk.
Arnold glanced at Benson, and waited until he nodded before standing beside the carriage.
"It's so dark."
During the waiting time, the sky had completely darkened, and Su Mo was walking in the garden in the dark. Those gardens that should be beautiful in the daytime are more strange in the dark.
Coupled with the rumors about the manor's "Vengeful Soul", it adds a terrifying atmosphere.
Speaking of which, although the seven sins are not particularly clear.
But Su Mo could guess that among those people's speculations and chats, the people who lived in the Wobbs family in the manor died one after another, and the ghosts who let them die in the rumors-should be Trandon's parents.
Haunted?What the hell is going on? Apart from the dead Trandon's parents, the Marquis of Wobbs and his wife, what ghosts will appear in this manor?
Of course, as the members of the Wobbs family died one by one, more ghosts might appear.
It's no wonder that the people around will just move away. So many people have died. If there are ghosts, this is a living haunted house where a lot of ghosts live!
Su Mo thought about it carefully, if he was an ordinary person and there was a haunted house near his home where many people died, he would choose to move out as soon as possible if possible.
But of course Su Mo is not an ordinary person. As an old monster who has lived for many years, in a sense, he is the "ghost" people call him.
Now Su Mo is walking in the garden quite calmly, and even has time to stop and look at the surrounding gardening.
What is a ghost?
If you explain it a little in a less scientific way, it should be the soul.And who is Su Mo, a person who has nothing to swallow the soul, is simply the natural nemesis of the so-called ghosts.
Don't say that Su Mo doesn't believe in rumors about ghosts at all, even if there are ghosts... For Su Mo, it's just a dish.
After passing through the garden and coming to the door of the house, Su Mo stretched out his hand and gently pushed a door open, which opened immediately.
Presumably after the death of the Wobbs family, those who collected the corpses didn't want to stay in this ghost place, so they left without even locking the door. Su Mo also saw that the window on the other side was also wide open and not closed. .
However, the rumor of the haunted house also has one advantage, that is, there will not be too many obscure guys thinking about this manor that has no one.
Although no one was watching, only the iron door outside was locked, and the doors and windows of the house were still open, but the rows inside the house, including the precious oil paintings hanging in the halls, were in good condition and had not been damaged in any way.
This is a good thing for Tranton, these things are quite valuable.
With the mysterious death of the head of the family, the disappearance of the only heir, internal infighting, and secret attacks from outsiders, the Wobbs family's property has naturally shrunk considerably.
Under such circumstances, it would be good to have an extra penny, otherwise Trandon would not agree to let Mrs. Liz go. In a short time, Mrs. Liz was Trandon's purse.
Su Mo took out the flint and completely lit the candlesticks in the room, illuminating the entire hall.
"It looks like a kerosene lamp..." Seeing those candlesticks, Su Mo took one of them and walked to the long and narrow passage on the left side of the hall.
According to Trandon, the first floor of the house was the kitchen, dining room, pantry, servants' room and room leading to the basement.
The second floor is the showroom, collection room, study and guest room.
The third floor is the master bedroom.
Although the side branches of the Wobbs family competed for the position of the head of the family, they also kept the last integrity. Before the official decision of the new head of the family, no one really lived in the third floor, only in the guest room on the second floor. .
Anyway, the house in the manor is big enough, and it is barely enough to live in if it is a little crowded.
Everyone also knows that they won't stay for too long, and things will come to an end soon. Most people will leave, and only a few people can continue to stay in this manor.
But those people never thought that they did not live for too long, but no one could continue to stay in this manor.
Everyone was finally carried out. Perhaps, in a sense, they really stayed in the Wobbs Manor, staying here forever in the form of death.
The sound of footsteps echoed in the long and narrow aisles, and Su Mo, who was holding a candlestick, had a strange look on his face from the light.
The black clothes hide most of his body in the darkness.
If it weren't for a handsome face, Su Mo's current appearance would be enough to frighten a group of timid people to death.
Now, those timid people will probably sigh before being scared to death: "These days, even ghosts are so good-looking."
"Nothing."
After checking a few rooms, Su Mo didn't find anything except for a musty smell.
For now, this house doesn't look like a haunted house at all, it's just a simple, quiet house that hasn't been inhabited for a while.
Walking into a room similar to a storage room, I followed the spiraling steps to a closed iron door.
He stretched out his hand and pushed it, but the iron door didn't move.
About this basement, Tranton also mentioned to Su Mo. He said that except his father who has the key, no one else has a key, not even Wilbur has entered this basement.
What was inside, no one else knew.
Checked a door lock and found no signs of damage. Su Mo thought about it for a while and decided not to go in yet.
Now it's better to scan the whole house first to see if there is any strange place. If you are sure there is no danger, you can rest early.
After ten days of rushing on the road, it is impossible to say that you are not tired at all.
Although Su Mo relies on a large number of souls to not die, he also needs to eat normally, needs rest, and also feels tired.
Su Mo once experimented that if he didn't eat or drink, he would die like an ordinary person.However, when he "dies", he can consume his soul and "resurrect" again. Although his body is still hungry, he can return to a normal state.
If the soul is exhausted... Speaking of which, Su Mo has never encountered such a situation.
Whether it was in the state of being "trapped" in the past, or the owner of the broken piece of paper now, Su Mo always has a large inventory of souls.
That night, Su Mo was in a state where his soul was completely released and only himself.However, in less than half an hour, he devoured hundreds of souls again, and now he is in a state of "big money" that is not afraid of consumption.
However, Su Mo will not grow old, neither his soul nor his body will grow old. He has lived the same way for a long time, and at the same time will not consume any soul. .
Years, for Su Mo, seem to have no meaning.
Immortal and immortal, but still needs everything that human beings need, this is the current Su Mo.
No matter what others think, Su Mo is actually quite satisfied with his current state - oh, except for the "Doomsday of Tyrants" that will make him "summoned" at any time.
Quickly swept the entire first floor, but found nothing.
"The structure of this house is not bad, it's better than the one I lived in before." Thinking about something completely unrelated to what he is doing now, Su Mo walked up the stairs and came to the second floor.
The rooms on the second floor are much smaller than those on the first floor, but each is larger and has a balcony.I don't know why there are a lot of mirrors hanging on the wall when I walked in. At a glance, it's easy to think of my shadow as someone else.
"This mirror is almost the same as the mirror on Earth."
Although technology lags behind Earth, in some respects the world is no less inferior.
After blowing out a few candles on the candlestick, so that the firelight would not be so dazzling in the reflection of the mirror, Su Mo pushed open a door next to him, and then heard a low sobbing sound.
A haunted house gradually entered the dark night, and a low sobbing sound drifted into Su Mo's ears along with a gust of night wind.
Chapter 25 倒霉鬼
If it is such a timid person, I am afraid that such a sudden and strange sob will be directly frightened.If he were a little bolder, he would have been startled, and it was difficult to calm down.
But now the person wandering in the house is Su Mo, not to mention the slight sob, even if there is a walking skeleton in front of him, his expression will not change too much.
Because he had really seen such a situation before!
Compared with the weird ancient tombs "developed" by a man surnamed Hu and later a man surnamed Zhang, this house is really not scary at all.
The difference is probably the difference between the kind of haunted house where you can enter the park for five to ten yuan and laugh for a while and the top ten haunted houses in the world.
Ignoring the sound of sobbing coming from somewhere, Su Mo took a step and stepped directly into the room.
Just as he stepped into the room, the sound of sobbing suddenly became louder, and it seemed to turn into a woman's sharp cry, with a piercing shriek.
"It's so noisy, what is it?" Su Mo muttered, turned and walked out, walking directly in the direction of the sound.
Although the voice that suddenly increased just now could not convey the huge house, it also allowed Su Mo to hear the source of the sound.
Abandoning the idea of exploring this guest room, Su Mo accelerated his pace and gradually rose to Xiaoran, directly throwing away the candlestick in his hand, and came to the door of the study a few seconds later.
Without any hesitation, Su Mo stretched out his hand and slammed open the door of the study.
A vague white figure flashed in front of Su Mo the moment he pushed the door, and before Su Mo could see what the white figure was, he disappeared completely.
Su Mo walked into the study and glanced around.
Although his eyesight is not as good as that of a demon like Arnold, it is still much better than that of ordinary people.With the weak light from the window leading to the balcony, Su Mo could still see the rows of the study.
It looks no different from an ordinary study, with large tables and chairs, a large number of bookshelves filled with various books, and some empty middle areas, enough to put a huge dining table for a dozen people to eat together. —Like the table in the restaurant on the first floor.
The bookshelves are tightly against the wall, and no one can hide behind them, unless there is a dark room.
So, where did the incomparably vague white figure that flashed by like a ghost just now go?
There is only one entrance to this study, which is the hidden door that Su Mo pushed open just now.Opposite this door, there are two floor-to-ceiling wood-framed glass doors that lead directly to the large balcony outside the study.
There is nothing on the balcony now, and the wooden framed glass door is tightly closed, and there is no sign that it has been opened in the slightest.
Apart from Su Mo, there is no other person in this study.
But just now, there was a vague white shadow in front of Su Mo's eyes.
In this way, the only explanation is that the white figure is not a human being, but a ghost.
This Wombs Manor, as others say, has become a haunted house?
"Oh, it's fortunate that I experienced the life of a student for a while back then. Otherwise, I was really cheated because of my lack of reading..." Su Mo said to himself, turned sharply, and rushed out of the study in an instant. , rushed into the collection room opposite the study, and happened to be directly facing a pale face.
"Are you right... this lady?"
At this time, Su Mo's second half sentence came out.
However, the owner of this pale face had no way to answer Su Mo's question.
Just one second ago, Su Mo was still in the study, and the next second he had rushed here.
The ghost lady was obviously taken aback by Su Mo's ghostly speed, her body involuntarily stepped back, and then she failed to stand firm and fell to the ground.
Facts have proved that it is very dangerous to land on the back of the head.
This ghost lady is not a real ghost body, I saw her body start to twitch, and some white foam poured out of her mouth.
"This is more scary than just now..." Su Mo smiled and squatted down.
