National treasure

Beams of light penetrate into the depths of the corridor through a vertical floor-to-ceiling window.

Cheng Ling followed Zhong Lao and began to survey the topography of the entire old house.

He is sure that those who are not familiar with the manor will attack the old house first.

The promenade on the first floor of the hall is the first, and several kinds of dark precious woods are tiled and inlaid to decorate the entire corridor.Renaissance, Baroque, and Neoclassical eight-legged display tables, velvet seats, and inlaid cabinets are interlaced.

On the walls are masterpieces of oil paintings from various periods, large sculptures are placed every few steps, and countless small collections are mixed on various tables and cabinets.

Inside the promenade are large and small reception rooms, cigar rooms, and showrooms, which are filled with Chinese and Western collections of the family for centuries, and huge brocade tapestries are hung on the high walls.

Cheng Ling looked around and said to Zhong Lao: "Put away all the important collections." He thought for a while and added, "The whole room, mobilize everyone, the sooner the better."

Passing through the atrium of the old house, the right wing is almost completely occupied by the banquet hall. When you open the carved wooden doors, you can see rows of floor-to-ceiling decorative mirrors. You can imagine the night when the candlelight illuminates the guests' dancing skirts.

Cheng Ling looked up, and saw that the empty hall space occupied the two floors, and several huge crystal lamps hung in the air.

He nodded to indicate that there was no problem, and Zhong Laozhong closed the door again.

Go straight to the study room at the bottom, the interior is simple and quiet, surrounded by towering bookshelves full of books, fragrant with ink, and there is no other decoration except wood carvings.Zhong Zhe was stepping on the high ladder to search for information, when he turned around and saw Cheng Ling and Mr. Zhong passing by.

Elder Zhong caught him just in time and told him: "Master, Ajin's mother refused to leave even after I persuaded her. She said that she didn't even blink an eye when she killed a pig or a sheep, and whoever came would give him a knife! You will be hungry when she leaves. "

Zhong Zhe was angry and funny, thought for a while and said: "Mom has the most stubborn temper. It really can't be done, let her hide in the cellar with you then."

Mr. Zhong shook his head, "Although he is old, he can still hold a gun. It's not a problem to kill two in one go."

Now Zhong Zhe was speechless.

"There should be a gun in the house. What else?" Cheng Ling heard the clues from Zhong Lao's words.

Now that the two have gone overseas, the timeliness and scope of support of the logistics department are limited. The opponent can attack in only two days. At present, they can only rely on themselves in this wave.

"There is a gun room in the manor, which mainly stores all kinds of hunting guns used in the hunting season, and there are also a few old guns in the collection. In addition, there is a weapon storage room, with collections of swords, medieval armor, ancient hidden weapons, etc. If those If it can come in handy." Zhong Zhe recalled as he got down from the high ladder.

Cheng Ling walked up to him, "What if I tell you to hide in the cellar too?"

Zhong Zhe raised his eyebrows and half-truthfully said: "You should know that the claustrophobic dark space will directly trigger my PTSD? Besides, I can shoot, and my marksmanship is not bad."

"What's a good shot? A rabbit?"

Cheng Ling's expression couldn't be more serious, but when he turned around, his tone was disdainful. Zhong Zhe leaned on the bookshelf and smiled, and shouted at his back: "There are wild ducks and foxes!"

After familiarizing himself with the inspection of the second floor and the attic, Mr. Zhong led Cheng Ling all the way to the basement. The gun room is to the left of the entrance.

In stark contrast to the grotto-like old appearance, there is a large number of high-tech applications in the basement, sensor lighting, fully automatic glass sealed doors, and a huge ventilation system to ensure constant temperature and humidity in the gun room and the wine cellar in the right area.

Mr. Zhong opened the gun room with his voice pattern, and rows of shotguns were tied to oak stands. Cheng Ling looked at Mr. Zhong, who bent slightly, "Please do."

Cheng Ling tried his hands twice, picked out a double-barreled shotgun, and the two went straight to the grass by the lake.After standing still, Cheng Ling skillfully opened the long barrel at the back, reloaded, and closed the gun.

He looked up, and there was a sparse fruit tree in the forest in the distance. He looked at the sight, raised his gun, and touched——

The sound stirred up a flock of birds, and the glowing red apple fell to the ground, leaving only half of it.

The two walked back again, and Elder Zhong said, "You are the first friend brought back by the young master to stay overnight."

Cheng Ling looked at the old man, and chose to tell the truth, "It's because of work."

Mr. Zhong expressed his understanding, "If you don't tell me, I also know that the young master has gotten into trouble, and it's quite big. Otherwise, there is no need to prepare like this, and I won't call the police."

Cheng Ling nodded, "It's not his problem, the other party is not a good person."

"Well, the master is also a person who often gets into trouble. Father and son inherit each other."

"Mr. Huang," Mr. Zhong stopped suddenly, and Cheng Ling looked at him, "I knew you were a good hand when I saw you holding the gun. This time, the young master will entrust it to you."

Cheng Ling was taken aback.

Mr. Zhong smiled, and walked up again with his hands hanging down, "Young man, what is there to hide from an old bastard like us who has killed people. You can know what you kill and protect by just looking at it. You When I let the young master go to the cellar, I can be by the side."

After lunch, Cheng Ling began to set traps.

He took out the special suitcase he brought with him from the house, which contained a piece of C4 the size of butter. After reshaping it and installing it, he planted a trigger bomb on the road that the vehicle must pass to enter the park.

He disassembled the shotgun's shotgun and buried the wires at the main entrance to the old house.

After doing this, Cheng Ling checked all the guns in the gun room, and found that they were all in good condition, not counting the antique muskets in his collection, and the two classic revolver guns that could be used had also been carefully maintained.

When Zhong Zhe went down to the basement, he happened to see Cheng Ling with his back turned to him, bowing his head and concentrating on something.He became curious for a moment, and instead of making a sound, he approached with his head.

Cheng Ling turned around abruptly, his eyes were like a falcon, and the black hole in the gun pointed directly at Zhong Zhe, which almost scared Zhong Zhe into a daze.

"Don't approach quietly in the future." Cheng Ling put down the gun he was inspecting.

"Yes." Zhong Zhe obediently responded.

"I have something to show you." Zhong Zhe regained his composure and talked about the business of finding Cheng Ling.

Cheng Ling followed him up to the weapon storage room, where a pile of swords and swords were piled up beside the table, obviously the ones that were more suitable had been picked out, and there were a few other knives and hidden weapons on the table.

Guns exchanged fire, and swords were of little use, not to mention Cheng Ling's usual dagger.He turned to provoking the Narrow Arrow, and tested the distance and strength towards the window.Decided to use it as an automatic shooting device.

Cheng Ling looked at the hidden weapons that Zhong Zhe handed over. Most of them were collections that were more than exquisite but not enough for actual combat.Until a small carved quiver with embedded treasures caught his attention.

"This is the Plum Blossom Hidden Arrow, which can hold six small arrows at a time. Look here..." Zhong Zhe demonstrated to him that he can hide under his forearm, reach out to aim, raise his wrist to pull the mechanism, and then shoot instantly, and there is no way to avoid it at close range avoid.

"How?" Zhong Zhe liked such a gadget very much when he was a child.

"Wait for me to process it and save it for you."

The author has something to say:

The next book I want to open has been put in a column, come early to collect it.Supernatural.
