971. Tricks in the Ancient House

My pace slowed down, and I was not too anxious to follow Mr. Ning. I also turned back to tell Meihui to be careful, not to be too impatient when walking, and to pay attention to every detail around me. Meihui has always been with me, and I only need to make a gesture without saying a word.

She can read my mind. She has already secretly pulled out the murder weapon in her hand, and nervously looked at the darkness on both sides of the corridor in the garden.

"Brother, look, follow the direction of my finger. Is there a rockery in the darkness over there? Look, there seems to be a figure next to the rockery. What is he holding in his hand?" Meihui said to me abruptly.

I stopped and shone my flashlight in the direction of her finger. It was very dark over there. The lanterns hanging here were all real candle lanterns from ancient times. They were not like those in the costume movies we watched, where wealthy people's houses were open.

The two lanterns hanging in front illuminate the surrounding area in bright red. They are all props and contain 100W light bulbs.

Think about it, how bright can the light of a candle be? With a tissue paper cover outside, it can barely illuminate the path under your feet. Without a flashlight, you can't see the scene around the garden at all, so Meihui can only barely illuminate the path.

I saw a dark shadow of a person over there.

The flashlight we used is a military one. It is very bright. Even if it is turned on underwater, it can clearly illuminate the scenery dozens of meters away in front of it. Ten meters away from the front of the beam, there is indeed a rockery. There seem to be two large plants planted on both sides of the rockery, but

In winter, the leaves have already fallen. I can't identify their species, but I guess they must be some rare species.

There was a man standing under one of the dead trees. This man was about the same height, short, fat and skinny as me. He was wearing the clothes of a servant of a wealthy family facing the big house. He was holding a broom in his hand and lowered his head as if sweeping up fallen leaves.

However, it is already winter, and there is snow everywhere in this open-air house. Where are there any fallen leaves? Is it possible to use such a small broom to sweep the snow? This is absolutely impossible. He wears a high felt hat on his head, and the hat and shoulders

There was thick snow falling on the ground.

Meihui also saw it clearly. Despite her usual bluffing, she was a girl after all. In this weird atmosphere, a person suddenly appeared in the darkness. She was really startled, and she grabbed my hand with her little hand.

He pinched his arms tightly. "He... is a person! Why is he sweeping in the middle of the night? What on earth is this place?"

I remained silent and didn't answer her. I was also wondering in my heart. In the middle of the night, the Jin family treated their slaves too badly. Why did the slaves get a broom to sweep the snow in such a cold weather? And it was obvious that he

The clothes I wore were spring and autumn singles, and judging by the thickness of the snow on my shoulders and head, I could tell I had been standing here motionless for several hours.

What makes me feel even more weird is that the light source of my military flashlight is composed of n small laser lights. You can imagine the intensity of the laser lights. I don’t know if you have ever had such an experience. No one is around in the middle of the night.

You are walking at night where there are no street lights, and suddenly a luxury car drives towards you. The headlights of the luxury car are modified laser lights, which shine right into your eyes. The brightness of the laser lights is too strong.

In an instant, your vision will fall into a short-term dizziness, and even your head will be dizzy. The first reaction of a normal person is to block the strong light with his hands, and then try to avoid the front, and look back.
