Chapter 70 Ghost Stories

The castle is huge.

Zhuang Cai couldn't help but sigh like this again.

To be honest, this was his first time in a castle-like place, and he didn't expect to be in a dungeon.

Rooms of various sizes, and winding corridors.

But fortunately, most of the rooms are very dirty and dilapidated and overgrown with weeds.

Over a long period of time, it has been occupied by natural plants.

However, the main structure of this castle is indeed very strong and not as dangerous as it seems.

Even the stairs leading up and down China Unicom are stable.

Zhuang Cai simply visited a few rooms that seemed to have information value, and then looked outside through a hole in the city wall.

The sun has set and there is only a faint light in the sky. It is time to go down.

When Zhuang Cai came to the hall.

Others had already set up the barbecue grill and placed eating and drinking supplies on it.

"Zhuang, you're finally down. Is this shabby place so beautiful?" Bri looked at Zhuang Cai who was coming down the stairs and said with a smile.

"You're not really looking for treasure in this castle, are you?" Jamie laughed.

Zhuang Cai just smiled and came to the small camp without saying anything.

Although the lobby should be cleaned, there is still some garbage. Everyone had obviously cleaned up before.

While playing with the food on the grill, Bree complained: "This castle is really big, dirty, and broken. It's really not interesting at all."

Jamie was also beside him and couldn't help nodding.

This was nothing like what they expected.

"Andrina told me before she came that this is a very beautiful castle, but I would say it's like a garbage dump." Jamie also complained.

They were all deceived by Andrina.

But what can I say, it’s here.

Hearing this, Andrina blinked next to her and couldn't help but said: "I think it's good? Looking at this dilapidated castle, I can already imagine its grandeur and beauty many years ago.

There should be beautiful carpets here and tapestries hanging there, and there should be various portraits here. Off-white and gold decorate the hall.

A huge and beautiful crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, shining soft and bright light here. There may also be a fragrant smell in the air. "

Hearing this, Zhuang Cai couldn't help but turn his head and look at her.

I can only say that he is worthy of being from the opera club and the person responsible for writing the script. His imagination must be rich enough.

"I already have an idea."

As she spoke, she took out a notebook from her tent and started writing something in it.

It's obvious that she's already starting to think about the script, which is the real purpose of her coming here.

Zhuang Cai sat next to him and looked at the fire in the stove.

The gentle firelight shone on his face.

Everyone was doing their own thing and chatting in a harmonious atmosphere, talking and laughing.

Zhuang Cai suddenly asked: "I just found some old and tattered books in a bedroom upstairs. They should be related to spiritual arts.

What do you think of these spiritual arts? "

"Spiritual magic?"

Everyone turned to look at Zhuang Cai.

But obviously, the emotions expressed in everyone's eyes are different.

Facing everyone's gaze, Zhuang Cai asked, "Does it matter?"

Jamie first looked disgusted and said without concealing his emotions: "Those are the things of those freaks. I suggest you wash your hands with the book to avoid being contaminated by the viruses of those freaks.

It might give you those dirty abscessed blisters on your hands, and you might even get sick. "

It is an extremely discriminatory statement from the very beginning.

Hearing this, Bree beside him couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, these freaks are just like worms in society. They have not contributed to society at all and they lie on the bodies of us normal humans and suck our blood." .

The thought of being around these freaks gives me goosebumps. "

Isn't it? Is this serious oppositional discrimination?

To be honest, it is difficult for Zhuang Cai to imagine that the current social background is the late twentieth century.

This social trend of thought is also a bit too old-fashioned.

Moreover, it is very strange for a spiritual magician who possesses extraordinary personal power to be discriminated against like this, right?

Listening to their words, it seems as if ordinary humans still have the upper hand.

"There are actually books about these freaks here. This castle is in a deep mountain and old forest. Could it have been the home of a freak?" Jamie suddenly thought of something and said.

It has to be said that he may have guessed correctly.

At least the simple information Zhuang Cai sees now is more biased towards this aspect.

“Then let’s leave tomorrow, it’s uncomfortable to think that this is a freak’s home.

Maybe there will be various witchcraft traps hidden here. If we accidentally step on them, we will be doomed. "Buli couldn't help but rub his neck and said in disgust.

"Speaking of these freaks, do you remember the news in the newspapers a while ago?"

Jamie asked suddenly.

"What news?" Zhuang Cai asked.

"It's the violent crackdown in Ancra."

Zhuang Cai shook his head, how could he know.

"Don't you know this?"

Jimmy stared slightly, a little surprised at the state. After all, this is a very famous event.

"I rarely pay attention to newspapers." Zhuang Cai said casually.

Hearing this, Jamie turned to look at Bree: "Have you heard of it?"

"Is it the violent suppression incident that killed 12 spiritual magicians?"

"Yes, that's right."

"I remember five police officers died, these damn freaks."

"Yes, these freaks are really disgusting..."

The two of them just started communicating as if no one else was around.

There was no concealment of his distaste for spiritual magicians in his words.

From their chat, Zhuang Cai also roughly knew the ins and outs of this incident.

To be honest, from the perspective of onlookers, this is just the persecution of some normal spiritual masters by ordinary people and the police.

Apparently they were a little too persecuting the spiritual wizards.

Zhuang Cai didn't know if it was a problem in society as a whole, or if it was just this country.

Because the spiritualists who can be violently suppressed and harmed by the police must be those who are weak, and the awakened spiritualists may be more focused on life.

Zhuang Cai learned some simple information from those tattered books just now.

"Andrina, what do you think?" Jimmy suddenly looked at Andrina next to him and asked.

Next to her, Andrina just lowered her head and wrote in a book. Listening to Jamie's questions, she just nodded.

"Ah."

Apparently there is not much desire to communicate.

It's like being immersed in your own world.

Seeing that Andrina didn't want to pay attention to him, Jamie couldn't help but turn his head and look at Miliya next to him.

However, facing Miliya's pure eyes, he could only shut his mouth silently.

This time he didn't have much desire to communicate.

Zhuang Cai sat aside and watched all this.

He probably saw that although Andrina lowered her head, it could be seen from her voice that she did not agree with the discrimination between these two people.

As for Miliya, it seems that she is simply familiar with Andrina. Jamie and I didn't appear to be very familiar with each other.

"What do you think, Zhuang?"

Hearing this sudden question, Zhuang Cai just nodded, but said: "It's okay, but I still have to say that such serious discrimination is wrong.

We and the spiritualists are only human beings. "

After hearing Zhuang Cai's words, the two of them looked at Zhuang Cai with strange eyes.

It was obvious that the two of them did not agree, but due to their relationship, they did not refute anything, but obviously they no longer even had the desire to chat.

But the eyes looking at Zhuang Cai seemed to say, I didn't expect you to think this way.

"You actually sympathize with those freaks?" Brie said silently, but didn't say anything more.

On the contrary, it was Andrina who raised her head and glanced at Zhuang Cai.

Miliya also turned to look at him.

He could actually agree with the two of them, but he still chose to express his simple thoughts.

After all, he is just a bystander.

The reason why he was willing to speak out was mainly because through his observation, Andrina was probably the type who did not agree with such persecution.

After all, through his observation, Andrina was probably the kind of young and energetic beautiful girl with her own kindness and justice in her heart.

Moreover, his mission is to protect her, so building a good relationship is always the right thing to do.

As for those two men, to be honest, they look a bit like cannon fodder in terms of their behavior and appearance.

Since my opinion is consistent with Andrina’s, it’s definitely not wrong to say it.

As for Miliya...the silly Baitian beside the protagonist? The kind that brings out the brilliance of the heroine?

There was no way, Zhuang Cai only had contact with them for about a day.

This is the only label he can put on now that is more consistent.

Due to the different ideas between Zhuang Cai and the two of them, the interruption just now made the atmosphere somewhat silent.

But after all, we were all young people and belonged to the same club, so the atmosphere soon returned to normal.

"Come on, try my skills. You know, I'm at home, but I'm the master chef of the barbecue!"

Bree smiled and distributed the baked goods to everyone.

Zhuang Cai also took out a can of beer from the things he had just moved in and handed it to everyone.

Seeing Miliya's disgusted expression after taking a sip of beer, he changed it to juice for her.

Seeing this situation, Andrina blinked at Zhuang Cai. Zhuang Cai just smiled helplessly.

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

As everyone clinked glasses, the atmosphere became more lively.

The atmosphere became more and more lively while eating and drinking, and everyone started talking and laughing.

Even Miliya, who had always been relatively silent, couldn't help but smile.

After drinking and eating, it soon came late at night, and outside was the silent wilderness.

Birds chirped and insects chirped, and moonlight filtered in through some square openings and holes.

Several people gathered around the fire.

"How about I tell you a ghost story?" Andrina suddenly said with a smile.

Hear the offer.

Jimmy and Bree looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

"I knew there would be a link like this."

"This is normal, isn't it? It would be strange if she didn't tell her."

After hearing what the two said, Andrina said dissatisfied: "What do you mean? Is my ghost story bad?"

Jamie shook his head: "No, as a future playwright, your stories are still very good. But the problem is that there are only a few wonderful stories going back and forth, and we have heard enough.

Now you can only scare the newcomers with those ghost stories, but you can't scare us. "

Hearing this, Andrina hummed proudly: "Hmph, I thought of a new ghost story."

As he spoke, he began to tell.

"Legend has it that there is an abandoned castle. This abandoned castle was the castle of a count in the 16th century. The owner of this castle is a beautiful lady, her name is Albertsha Mochi.

Countess Alberta invites many young people into her castle every year..."

With the beginning of something they had never heard before, even the two people who were complaining just now couldn't help but listen seriously.

The beginning that you have never heard before may be a brand new ghost story.

As Andrina's story progressed, Zhuang Cai couldn't help but rub his neck with his hands.

He had to admit that hearing this ghost story made his neck feel a little chilly. This Andrina was really talented in this area.

From the shallower to the deeper, it leads people into the depth, and people can't help but become involved in it.

"Then...listen, what's the sound?"

Andrina suddenly stopped talking and held her breath.

Everyone involuntarily held their breath.

The sound of rolling stones echoed in the empty castle, so harsh in this silent night.

The sound of rolling stones instantly made the whole air darken.

The moment he was startled, Zhuang Cai discovered that Andrina secretly kicked the stone she had prepared with her heel.

Okay, okay, that’s how it works, right?

For the sake of atmosphere, he did not expose it.

As the atmosphere reached its climax, Andrina began to enter the final finale.

Even at the end, the ghost story did not make everyone scream in fear.

But the chilly feeling really lingered.

"I, I'm going to go to the bathroom." Jamie stood up and said awkwardly, then looked at Bree next to him and pulled him out together.

Looking at the backs of the two of them, Andrela burst into laughter.

It was this kind of evocative ghost story that she loved the most.

"This story is not good at all. It is not as good as the ghost story about Mr. Rabbit getting into a hole to catch mice."

Miliya, who had always been relatively silent, suddenly said.

Hearing this, Andrina smiled awkwardly.

"That's a story I wrote when I was a kid. It has no logic at all. How could it be as good as what I'm writing now."

Did it turn out that these two were childhood sweethearts growing up?

Zhuang Cai couldn't help but think.

But there was nothing he could do about it, after all, apart from some of the most basic information, the only information in his mind was about Andrina.

"Okay, let's take a look at the script I wrote? I feel pretty good. The ghost story just now is just a short story refined from this script."

With that said, Andrina handed the small book in her hand to Zhuang Cai.

Zhuang Cai took it, nodded, and started to read.

The plot in the book is very concise, probably just a rough outline.

But even a rough outline was enough for him to read carefully.

But the thing is when it comes to specific people or performers, a lovely pattern is painted on it.

How about a rabbit head, a cartoon sword, a shield, etc.

"What do these patterns mean?"

"Representative positions, I haven't decided yet what names to give them and who will play them.

I can only think about it well after my script is completed, after all, I may revise it at any time. "

As she said that, Andrina blinked.

Zhuang Cai nodded.

It has to be said that even if he only looked at the general framework, Zhuang Cai already had the desire to continue reading.

The simple plot has already started to have interlocking twists and turns.

Of course, he had to admit that maybe it was because his era was further back than this era, so he had seen some of the plots above.

There is no way, the entertainment in the world he lives in is a bit too developed.

But even so, he still felt that it might be a good work.

I have to say it’s amazing.

the other side.

The two people walking together walked out of the castle, ready to find a good place to solve their problems.

"Do you think these breezes are too cold, a bit like the cold wind in winter?" Jamie couldn't help but say.

After hearing this, Bree couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "Okay brother, this is not the first time I have heard Andrina's ghost story, I know that feeling.

But don't say it. "

As he spoke, he couldn't help but rub the goosebumps on his forearms.

It's obviously summer.

It should be very hot outside even at night, but it is indeed cool now, and the breeze seems to bring a chilly feeling like a biting winter.

It makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

Especially when they are wearing short clothes and short sleeves, this experience is even more obvious.

The two came to the corner of the castle.

"Okay, here it is."

I chose a good place to take off my belt.

The sound of dripping water allows natural fertilizer to be poured on these weeds.

"call……"

With the release, the feeling of pleasure made the two of them unable to help but close their eyes.

In addition to the sound of water, the breeze blew through the rustling of leaves in the woods.

One after another, mixed with the chirping of insects at night.

It intersects with the moonlight and scatters around the castle.

Jamie looked up at the castle: "Looking at it this way, this castle seems really beautiful."

"exactly."

After all, both of them are members of the opera club and have some artistic talent in them.

"Ah, moonlight, your pure white clothes..."

Just when Jamie wanted to take advantage of the atmosphere to recite a poem, a boastful heat came from his neck.

He couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Don't even think about scaring me, damn it."

Hearing Jamie's strange words, Bree frowned next to her.

Then Brie felt a finger poke her waist.

Also a little helpless.

He stretched out his foot and kicked Jamie's ass from behind.

"Hey, damn, you almost made me pee in my pants!"

"Who asked you to poke me?"

"What? You blew on my back first to scare me!"

"What? I didn't..."

Bree said as she pulled up her pants.

As soon as he turned his head, what caught his eyes was something he had never thought of.

"Ahhh!"

He screamed in terror, but at least he didn't completely lose his mind.

The broken wooden stick he was swinging was full of nails smashed down.

Brie kicked Jamie in the body.

Jimmy rolled over and saw the scene behind him, his eyes widened.

"Damn, what are you waiting for?"

Jamie pulled up his pants in an unusual panic.
