Gu Yue rolled his eyes at his father: "Dad, what are you talking about, you make me look like an old man, I can't earn what I want, if I can't earn it, I don't have the ability, can't I Can you rely on your parents?"

Father Gu raised the corner of his mouth in satisfaction: "Well, it really is my son, with a bit of my demeanor back then."

Gu's mother was speechless, and slapped Gu's father on the shoulder: "Come on, you are still panting if you say you are fat. Son, don't worry, your parents are still young, even if you go out for a break, but after you go out, you will also lose weight." How long should you be careful, Mom never believed that there would be pies in the sky, so you have to be more careful when you get there."

"Understood, don't worry." Gu Yue put his fingers together and saluted to reassure his mother.

Gu's mother smiled and patted him and didn't say anything more. He knew what kind of son he raised, and occasionally made a fool, but he would not be sloppy when he should be meticulous.

After explaining the matter, Gu Yue didn't stay at home too long, Lilith informed him that the visa had been obtained, he packed his luggage and boarded the plane to the United States.

Juyan Town is attached to Torta City, but it is quite far away from the urban area. It takes about three hours to drive. Gu Yue finally arrived here after six or seven hours after the plane landed.

Contrary to his expectations, the beautiful lawyer Lilith seemed to be here for the first time. She followed the address for 15 minutes before stopping in front of a dilapidated second floor.

"Here, I think... this is the supermarket." Lilith murmured, she lowered her head to check the address several times, and after confirming that she was correct, the expression on her face was a little stiff.

Broken glass, walls covered in graffiti, and a door full of garbage. This is not a supermarket, it's a dump at all.

Gu Yue was also shocked by this dilapidated house, surrounded by some beautiful small apartments with gardens outside, and the contrast between the two made the house even more miserable.

"Uh...Mr. Gu, why don't we go and see the manor." Lilith smiled dryly, her expression full of embarrassment.When she got the information, the supermarket in the photo was still open. Thinking about it now, that photo must have been taken a few years ago. It is not surprising that the vacant house will look like this after a few years.

Gu Yue didn't know what to say, lost?There must be some, but it's not as serious as Lilith imagined.

After all, it is something obtained out of thin air. If this supermarket is running well, Gu Yue will be a little uneasy. Now that he has seen the dilapidation of this supermarket with his own eyes, he realizes that this inheritance may not be as expensive as he imagined, so he completely let it go. upset.

It was also because of this that when he saw the vast manor that looked like a haunted house, he didn't feel any drop in his heart.

"Uh..." Lilith was in a mess in the wind.She never expected that the people of the Mo family made her travel all the way to China, but in the end they sent out these two rags!

right!That's right!It's broken!

Juyan Town is a quite remote town, and the real estate here is also very cheap. If it is in good condition, it can be called a holiday cottage. But look at this house that is comparable to a haunted house. If you want to renovate it, it will probably take More than the total value of the property!Who would do such a loss-making business!

Lilith pushed her glasses, and scolded the Mo family to death in her heart, it doesn't matter if you send out a bunch of rags, but I want to embarrass my old lady here!

She squeezed out a smile, put the key into Gu Yue's hand, and without even waiting for Gu Yue to say anything, she said as she walked, "Mr. Gu, I will leave it to you here, and the transfer information of the property will be processed in a few days." Finished, I'll mail it to you directly when the time comes, I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first." After finishing speaking, he ran away without looking back.

Gu Yue was left with a sluggish face, and was thrown into the haunted house before he understood what happened... Ah no, it was the gate of the manor.

Gu Yue couldn't help but rubbed his forehead, looked up at the rusty fence and the mottled wall not far away that was covered with ivy, the corners of his eyes twitched, okay, okay, if you come, you will be safe, everyone What else can we do if we have already arrived, we must first go in and have a look.

Pushing open the gate and coming to the gate of the villa, beyond Gu Yue's expectation, the main body of the villa seems to be quite solid, even the gate has no trace of damage, even the chain holes are clean.

Gu Yue inserted the huge brass key into the lock, twisted it slightly, and with a click, the door lock opened in response, and the heavy door was pushed open soundlessly. The flowing air brought up puffs of dust, and Gu Yue immediately retreated. out.

After a while, he didn't step into the gate again until the dust landed again.

All the windows were covered with curtains, and the hall was dark. Gu Yue glanced at it, and found that the room was empty, and the furniture had already been put away. Only a few delicate plaster statues in the corners left a sense of luxury. .

Gu Yue casually opened a few windows to ventilate the room. I don't know how many years this room has been unoccupied, the air is full of dusty smell, it's hard to treat people.

He wandered around. On the west side of the hall was a staircase leading to the second floor. Walking up the stairs, there were a row of doors on both sides of the corridor.He pushed them away one by one, and most of the rooms were empty. Fortunately, there was still a wooden bed left in the master bedroom on the east side... Well, at least there is no need to make the floor at night, Gu Yue thought calmly.

He found out the cleaning tools and tidied up the bedroom first. Thanks to the fact that it was still July and it was hot, he made improvisation, and had to go to town to buy something tomorrow.

Thinking of this, he was a little worried. This time he came out with only [-] US dollars with him. This [-] US dollars seems to be a lot. Once it is spent, it is not enough. It seems that he must find a way to make some money.

Gu Yue was humming a song while cleaning the room, thanking Lilith for her reliability, before she left, she still remembered to turn on the water and electricity here so that he would not live a primitive life.

Not long after Gu Yue entered the manor, in a small dark house in the small town, several people got together and were having a discussion about their 'new neighbor'.

"What should I do? How long has the house been unoccupied? Why did someone suddenly appear?" A voice said in a panic.

"Don't worry about him, I'll pay attention to it. It's a yellow-skinned monkey. At worst, I'll kill him directly." The tone of another voice was very vicious.

"Okay, let's see the situation first, but there's only one person here, so there's no need to get confused." The final voice made the final decision, and the room quickly fell silent.

Gu Yue didn't know that he was being missed, he was already lying on the bed ready to fall asleep.

After tossing and tossing for more than 20 hours, even he is a strong young man, he is a little tired. After calling his parents to report his safety, he took off his coat and got under the quilt.

Jet lag and exhaustion made him fall asleep quickly, but after falling asleep, he got up again in a trance.

He is dreaming.

Gu Yue is very aware of this.

It's just that the environment of this dream is too strange, right?Why did he dream that he was standing in the middle of the hall of this villa?

Don't ask him how he can tell that the hall full of luxurious decorations is the same room as the empty hall in the afternoon, he just knows.

A large number of works of art, gorgeous and elegant decoration, everything here shows that its former owner must be a person of extraordinary status—maybe a nobleman?

Gu Yue stood in the center of the room, the crystal chandelier hanging above his head was a bit dazzling, he turned his head slightly, but suddenly noticed that a door appeared under the stairs leading to the second floor at some point.

"In the afternoon, there was no door there." Gu Yue looked at the dark red door and muttered to himself.

He thought he had a good memory, not to mention that in the afternoon, the hall was empty and exposed. If there was a door there, he couldn't see it.

Gu Yue was hesitant to go and have a look. The current dream was obviously not right, but deep in his heart, there seemed to be a voice saying: Go, go and have a look, there... belongs to you.

Without a sound, the dark red door opened. The door is a staircase leading to the basement. The wooden staircase looks dark and dark. Those who are less timid will definitely be shocked when they see such a penetrating scene. Turn around and run away.

however……

Our Gu Yue is stupid and bold to some extent, or you can call him a cat killed by curiosity.

Faced with such a situation, others might be afraid, but Gu Yue was extremely excited, and even eagerly walked to the front of the stairs.

The bottom of the stairs was pitch black, and it seemed that even light could not enter it.

Gu Yue's heart beat a little faster, standing at the door, he had the feeling of being spied on.

It was as if there was something hidden behind that layer of darkness, and that something was eyeing him playfully, as if assessing his worth or... guts?

Unconsciously pursing his lips, Gu Yue doesn't like the feeling of being evaluated by others, it will give him the illusion that he is a kind of goods.

Slightly puffing up his chest, he stepped up the stairs.I don't know if he was affected by the dream, but he believed instinctively that everything that happened here couldn't hurt him, and even the peeping person hiding in the dark was just evaluating rather than having any malicious intentions towards him.

The stairs were very dark, and the darkness deepened the further you went down.

Gu Yue supported the wall and walked down slowly, it seemed that he reached the finish line after walking for a long time.

Looking back, the open door was already far away from him. The original door looked like a small window. The dazzling white light came in through that window, but it still couldn't break through the darkness.

Walking slowly along the wall, in the darkness, Gu Yue did not see the faint red light emitting from his chest.

This layer of red did not break through the darkness, on the contrary, the surrounding darkness began to gradually merge into this ray of red light, as if this red light was the key to open this place, and those darknesses were the guardians of this place. When people came, the guardians would naturally help open the gate.
