Chapter 540: Breaking into the Mirror City by mistake (Part 1)
"Hey, wake up."
In a corner of the organ room, Barde, who was kneeling on one knee, called softly while suppressing his voice, and patted Huang Donglai's face with his hands.
"ah!"
Without a few slaps, Huang Donglai, who was lying on the ground, woke up in a scream.
Immediately afterwards, Brother Huang thrust the carp in one move, jumped up, and glanced around in two seconds after he stood up and stood still.
"Where are we?" Huang Donglai asked after taking a glance.
"How did I know? I just woke up, too." Barde replied.
This is the truth. Valde woke up about half a minute earlier than Huang Donglai. Since he woke up and saw that he had already arrived in a strange environment and his other companions were gone, he must have woken up the unconscious person next to him first.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Valde replied, Huang Donglai, who was standing beside him, said "Damn" in a rather panic tone, and then crawled onto the floor again.
Seeing this, Barde quickly lowered his body and leaned over, looking around nervously, and asked, "What's wrong? What did you find?"
"I found that I had just gotten up too quickly, which caused insufficient blood supply in the brain and dizziness, so I lay down again." Huang Donglai closed his eyes and rubbed his temples and said.
Upon hearing this, the apple muscles on his face twitched twice, and his fists couldn't help but clenched a little.
But a few seconds later, he suppressed the state of being reluctant to speak and stood up again, as if nothing had happened just now, and said, "Do you still remember how we came here?"
Huang Donglai lay there for a few seconds and felt better. This time he slowly stood up: "It must have been caught by that windbreaker monster, huh? By the way... where is our 'bait'?"
"I don't know, maybe it's nearby, why don't we look for it?" said Valde.
"Okay." Huang Donglai was also confused about the situation in front of him, so it would be okay to investigate it first.
Although there were no lights in this organ room at this time, a large area of bloody moonlight that penetrated from the arch window was enough to illuminate most of the areas here, and the only places where there were no illumination were the shadows at the bottom of some furniture and corners.
Huang Donglai and Barde searched all the places, but did not find Dumitru's figure.
When they looked out the window, the scenery at the lower part was basically blocked by the building itself and the cliffs. The high part was only the deep night sky dyed red by the blood moon. The only thing that could be confirmed was... The room they were in at this moment should be located in a very large and complex castle.
"Well... I said..." During the search process, Huang Donglai also thought more about the situation in front of him, so when he and Barde got together again, he made a speculation, "Can that guy be taken to the contract by someone to 'check out'?"
Everyone knows the price of Dumitru's contract, that is, "being captured by Mr. Florescu and given to vampires as snacks." Naturally, everyone knows. Even if Dumitru himself refuses to say it, Dan can share this part of the information, so Balder understands what Huang Donglai mentioned now.
"There is this possibility..." Valde continued, "Suppose that weird man in a windbreaker is 'Florescu'. From his position, his primary and only goal is to capture the contractor and submit the contract; as for the two of us... they were caught in, he really didn't need to pay attention to us, and he had no obligation to send us back, and it would be normal to throw us down and fend for ourselves."
Huang Donglai thought about it and continued, "If you want to say that... we have to be glad that guy is not the kind of person who kills innocent people, otherwise we might not be able to wake up."
"Not necessarily..." said Valde, "Maybe he felt that throwing us here will lead us to die soon, and it will be more painful than dying in a coma...or maybe, we are dead, this is hell, but we don't know it."
"A hammer!" Huang Donglai saw the other party expressing this fallacy with a deep face, and he yelled at that time, "I don't know whether it's dead or alive?"
"Oh?" Barde was puzzled when he saw that the other party was so sure. "Do you have any definite way of judging?"
"Hmph..." Huang Donglai sneered and replied, "I have a stomachache now, so go and shit first..."
"Uh..." Bald was stunned when he heard this, "Tell me after you finish pulling it?"
"What else do you want to tell you? Isn't this the answer in itself?" Huang Donglai looked at Valde with contempt and said, "Are you stupid? Do dead people still need to shit?"
"This..." Barde was speechless because he had never thought about the question of "whether people need to shit after going to hell?"
"Forget it, I won't mention it. When I said that, I really couldn't hold it in. I don't know what the situation outside this room is... Or I'll solve it on the spot." On the other side, Huang Donglai had already walked to a corner to himself and began to untidy his pants.
However, just as he was squatting while he was quenching...
"Stop! Vulgar foreigner! What do you think you are doing?" A stern shout suddenly rang in the room.
It was a woman's voice, and she sounded quite young. Of course, this was not the point. The point was that she drank very loudly and had an echo. At that time, Huang Donglai was so scared that he lifted his pants and stood up again.
"Who? Who is there?" Huang Donglai asked immediately.
Barde was also shocked to show off his fighting posture, but because his warhammer was no longer at hand, he could only pick up a copper candlestick on the table as a weapon.
"I've been here all the time, just don't want to pay attention to you..." When the second sentence sounded, Huang Donglai and Barde discovered that the voice came from the huge organ, "But now... your behavior has forced me to speak and stop it."
"Oh, buttocks~ The organ has become a sperm, right?" Huang Donglai muttered and walked to the piano, "Or are you hiding in the piano?"
"If you have time to ask these, why don't you get off now, because the toilet is quite far away from here." The voice said again.
"Oh? Do you still know where the toilet is?" Huang Donglai said.
"When you go out, turn left and walk to the bottom, you will see a spiral staircase. Follow the stairs down two floors, then turn right to the first corner, confirm that there is a pomegranate-shaped hanging on the wall, and then move towards the corridor where the hanging is located, until you pass through a red iron door, then go to the right, and walk to the fifth door, which is the toilet." The voice prompted this message very quickly, and the tone didn't seem to be made up.
But after hearing this, Huang Donglai still asked back, "How do I know you don't want to trick me into some kind of trap?"
"Then I'll say it another way..." The tone of that voice sounded like he was about to be angry and laughed, "As long as you get out of my room immediately, it's your freedom to slap wherever you are next, but if you plan to come back here later, I suggest you don't pull it into your pants."
"Well..." Huang Donglai pondered and thought for a few seconds.
Then a wave of angrily interrupted his thoughts.
"Okay! I believe it, you wait!" Huang Dong said, then turned around and ran to the door. When passing by Barde, he even said, "Hey! Why are you standing there? Come together!" to the other party.
When Valde first heard this, he muttered in his heart: Why does Brother Huang still need someone to accompany him when he goes to the toilet?
But soon he realized that it was not the best way to act separately in the situation. After all, they were not sure whether the sound in the room was malicious. What if the other party wanted to lure the tiger away from the mountain and take it separately?
Although Barde was not afraid of "sacrifice", he had to die in battle. If he encountered an obvious trap and deliberately sent it, subjectively it would be equivalent to "suicide", and he would not do this.
"Hey, wait! I'm here!" Thinking of this, Barde ran out with Huang Donglai.
The corridor outside the organ is relatively low and has no windows. However, there is a three-pointed candlestick on the walls on both sides of the corridor every few steps, and the candles on it are lit, so the actions of the two were not affected by the darkness.
It is worth mentioning that the decoration in this castle looks very exquisite. On the road from the organ room to the toilet, Huang Donglai and Barde obviously noticed that the surrounding wallpaper, carpets, furnishings, etc. have changed several styles, and the alternating connections of these styles are also very coordinated, which can make people feel rich and not confusing.
You should know that in that era, many royal castles in Europe could not achieve this level; take the castle of Lord Koman who had been to Sun Huang and others before, as an example: In addition to the main hall and the very few spaces that the owners had to use every day, it was basically the same as those that had not been decorated. Exposed stone bricks and wooden beams could be seen everywhere on the walls and floors, and the decorations in the corridors were usually armor and shields hanging on stands, such as portraits, sculptures, and porcelain. Even the simplest candlesticks were limited, and torch stands were installed directly in many places... In this way, Koman was still a relatively wealthy lord in the villages.
But the castle in front of me is so luxurious that it feels like it is distorted.
Even the toilet that Huang Donglai stepped into a few minutes later was dozens of square meters. The walls and floors inside were decorated with marble parquets. The area for people to wash was quite a distance away from the toilet. There was only one toilet, and there was a comfortable, adjustable wooden cushion on it. There were also clothes hangers and small tables for personal belongings on both sides. It can be said that this place is very close to or even surpasses many modern toilets.
Barde was also very grateful that because the toilet was big enough, Huang Donglai could stand in a distance and wait for the bathroom when solving the problem, without having to endure the smell at close range.
However, the scene he was waiting, even if he turned his back to Huang Donglai, it still made him feel a little uncomfortable...
Soon, Huang Donglai was finished. When he came over to wash his hands, he asked: "Hey, Valde, the opportunity is rare. Do you want to sit there for a while?"
He is ignoring his words. People of this era indeed... may never be able to access such a toilet once in their lifetime.
"No...thank you." But after twitching the corners of his mouth awkwardly, he declined.
First of all, he is really not in a hurry, secondly... Huang Donglai's operation of using the toilet to "generate others' favor" made him feel embarrassed to accept it.
"Okay, let's go back and find that organ spirit?" Huang Donglai didn't take it seriously. Seeing that the other party didn't need it, he shook his hand that had just been washed, and while drying his clothes, he walked out.
