Chapter 229 Searle Manor

Seeing the valley in front of him, Xiao Yun couldn't help asking the driver, "Driver, is there any beautiful scenery in this valley?"

When the attentive driver heard Xiao Yun talking to him, he quickly took out a pack of cigarettes from the front, pulled out one and handed it to Xiao Yun.

"Oh, if you want to smoke, it doesn't matter." Xiao Yun refused the other party's kindness and said lightly.

The driver smiled and said, "It's easy to feel tired when driving at this time. You will feel much better when you smoke a cigarette!"

Xiao Yun smiled faintly to show his understanding. After taking a deep breath of smoke, the driver took a breath and said to Xiao Yun and Yin Ling, "Sell Manor is in the valleys in front of you. As for the top of the mountain, there is no scenery to see. There are some shrubs, small trees and so on. Originally, there were some rare plant species there, even some rare animals, but with the process of urbanization and the expansion of the city, the rare plants and animals here are almost dead. So there is no longer any value to visit on the mountain.

The driver's words are not what Xiao Yun wants to know. What Xiao Yun wants to know is about Sel Zhuang's completion. Including some of its legends and so on. Therefore, Xiao Yun said to the driver, "Oh, I'm not just a music guy. I prefer some legends and things from all over the world. Can you tell me something about it? I can record it in my travel diary, and I can also pass the time..."

"Oh, you two, I'm almost there now. There are some things I need to tell you. Don't be too surprised. In short, if you two want to go back after hearing what I said, then I can take you back immediately to live in Durban."

Hearing the driver say, Xiao Yun's heart moved and knew that he was going to say what he wanted to know, so he sat up straight and said, "Oh, what's the matter?"

"Serre Manor itself is a plantation. Because Durban is close to the sea, there are naturally many fishermen who live on the sea, so various factories that process fish have also appeared. One of the factories is built in Sale Manor. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden fire in the factory in Searle Manor, and all the workers who were recruited died there.

When Yinling heard the driver say that, he quickly interrupted and said, "Oh, there is such a thing. What happened later? How's the stone? Is there another one?"

The driver shook his head gently, lit the second cigarette, exhaled and said, "Rebuild it? How is that possible! Many people say that it was deliberately burned by the people in the plantation, because the sewage discharged from the processing plant killed a lot of the crops in the plantation. Although the two sides negotiated, it was obvious that they did not successfully solve the conflict, which caused today's situation.

At this time, Yinling laughed and said to the driver, "Oh, really? What's so scary about this? Do you still need us to go back to the city?

The driver did not directly answer Yin Ling's question, but was silent for a long time, and then sighed. He seemed to understand that as long as he said the following words, Yin Ling would definitely take back what he had just said and his contempt.

"And the owner of that factory is also a backstage person. In order to take revenge on the people in the manor, he decided to destroy their plantation. In short, all the people who visit will be killed by the killer hired by the boss of the processing factory. Then blame the owner of the plantation.

At this point, Xiao Yun almost understood something about the Searre Manor. Maybe what the driver said really happened, but Xiao Yun thought it was a little exaggerated.

This guy took Xiao Yun and others here. If he didn't cheat Xiao Yun and others back to the city in order to get more money, then there was only one possibility, that is, the driver himself did not know the truth of the matter.

Silver Linglaisel Manor has been sold many times, and he is naturally very clear about the Tao in it. Although Sale Manor is a plantation on the surface, in fact, it is a huge underground trading market.

For the sake of confidentiality, some scary rumors are created to make ordinary people afraid to approach the plantation. At the same time, if the person who comes here to trade on the black market is killed, the local people will also think that this is the deliberate revenge of the owner of the processing factory. So as to lead things elsewhere and ensure the secret of Searle Manor.

When the taxi finally stopped, Xiao Yun got off next to a broken bridge. At this time, it was already sunset, and the sky was a little dim. The driver sat in the driver's seat and looked at Xiao Yun and Yinling moving forward. After a while, he also used headlights to shine on Xiao Yun and Yinling.

Xiao Yun couldn't help turning his head and looking at the driver. But I saw the driver sitting in the driver's seat with a strange smile, which made people can't help but have a kind of killer sent by the so-called processing factory owner.

Xiao Yun tidied up his things and then walked down the hillside. Xiao Yun and others have to go to the valley first, and then climb up and set foot on the passage to Searre Manor halfway up the mountain.

The bottom of the valley was extremely humid, and many small animals felt Xiao Yun's footsteps and jumped away one after another. When Xiao Yun and others went from the bottom of the valley to the middle of the mountain on the other side, Xiao Yun's position below their legs was basically wet with water.

"Brother Xiao, there is a big stone in front of you, which is a little warm in the sun. Let's take off our boots and clean them up. There is still a long way to get to Searle Manor, and at least we will have to walk for more than two hours. So, let's take a break here for a while, fill our stomachs, and then hurry up. Insable to be hungry in the middle of the road.

With that, Yin Ling took a few steps, came to the big stone, sat down, and then took off his boots and removed the sticky mud with a dagger.

Xiao Yun sat on the stone and looked at the blood-red remnants of the distant sky. He couldn't help taking a deep breath and thought of Qin Qingwu and Yao Feifei. I don't know how they are doing now.

The stones under them are still warm, but the temperature will quickly disappear as the sun goes down. Xiao Yun drank a bottle of drink and then ate beef with bread.

"That cloud is like dripping blood!" Yinling took a sip of the drink, then wiped his mouth and looked at the burning clouds in the distant sky.

Xiao Yun nodded and replied, "Well, it looks like it should rain tonight!"

Before Xiao Yun finished his words, there was a rumble of thunder from the distant sky. The thunder was like an alarm, urging Xiao Yun and the other two from the top of the stone.

"Let's go quickly. Let's eat while walking. If it rains and someone accidentally touches a mudslide or something, we will have a lot of fun." Hearing the thunder, Xiao Yun smiled helplessly and said.

Yinling also knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, so he quickly put on his boots, carried his things on his back, and walked forward with Xiao Yun.

"Crake!"

Not far away, a flash of lightning made the originally dim sky much brighter, but the brightness soon disappeared, and with a large amount of dark clouds, the whole sky became darker. But the bloody sun didn't know where it had gone.

"Damn it, why are we so unlucky that we encountered this damn thunderstorm at this time!" Yinling cursed depressedly, while Xiao Yun cut a few large leaves with a dagger and handed them to Yinling two umbrellas for temporary use.

The two walked for less than five minutes, and the big raindrops fell from the sky like pearls. At this time, the originally dark sky had turned into dark. The visibility also dropped to only about ten meters in an instant.

Xiao Yun and the two of them blocked their heads with leaves and walked forward with difficulty. The huge raindrops also smashed the leaves raised by Xiao Yun and others on their heads. Fortunately, their combat bags and cello boxes are waterproof, otherwise, it will be a big trouble.

"Brother Xiao, have you ever encountered such a thing before?" Yin Ling shouted loudly as he walked.

Xiao Yun answered loudly, "Yes! It's like a drowned chicken..."

"Then do you think it's very poetic?" Yin Ling laughed and asked.

And Xiao Yun snorted, "I'm only wet now, and there is no so-called poetry."

Hearing Xiao Yun's answer, Yin Ling couldn't help laughing with Xiao Yun, which slightly relieved the depression of the two.

"Crake!"

At this time, a flash of lightning cut through the sky, and the sky and the earth lit up in an instant. Xiao Yun wanted to take advantage of the lightning to see the location of the Searre Manor in front of him, but at this time, Xiao Yun saw a figure wrapped in a raincoat. At the moment when the lightning annihilated, he disappeared with a gun and disappeared.

Yinling also saw the figure, so the two of them hurriedly lay on the ground, and then carefully crawled into the surrounding bushes.

Xiao Yun took a deep breath and remembered what the taxi driver said. Maybe someone stared at them as early as they went down the valley. It's even very likely that the taxi driver is the guy in Sale Manor who is placed there.

The reason why the road to Sale Manor is so difficult is that ordinary people can't easily reach Sale Manor. Moreover, in an underground trading market like Searle Manor, there are many shady things, people and things in it, and as the master of Searle Manor, he will never even arrange a sentry.

Therefore, in a sense, the moment Xiao Yun and others came here and got off the taxi, they were already targeted.

"Hey... We are performers who can play the lullaby of the Galactic Stars. Who are you?" The silver spirit lay under the bushes and shouted.

"I'm a wandering soul at midnight, looking for my dead soul!" At this time, the other party answered Yin Ling's words loudly.

Hearing the other party's words, Yin Ling smiled and said to Xiao Yun, "Mr. Chasing Feng, the other party is the bodyguard of Sale Manor. Let's go there. Hey hey, finally there is no need to climb the mountain here."
