The administrator woke up, opened the door, Rainbow put his hands on his hips, and said loudly: "You didn't scare me, and there is nothing scary about this castle. I'm leaving, thank you for taking me in!" As Rainbow spoke, he threw the key at the other party, and then, ignoring the astonished expression on the other party's face, he strode forward, and immediately got into the car and galloped away. Rainbow is very good at getting to the bottom of it. She was not without doubts at this time, but she didn't get to the bottom of it.Because she "has a guilty conscience", she took away the bronze medal.

She knew that in a castle like the Grand Duke's, everything had extremely high historical value and would never be taken away by anyone.And she actually took away a bronze medal.Although she thought that it was a punishment for the administrator's "prank", but deep down in her heart, she also knew that what she did was wrong, so she was afraid that others would find out and left before it was too late. When she drove quite a distance, she passed a small town on the way down the mountain, and then stopped, drinking hot milk, while taking out the bronze medal, and then she saw clearly what was engraved on the bronze medal Character.

This bronze medal is naturally the one she sent me later, and I showed it to Wang Jufeng again. The word engraved on the bronze medal is the prohibition signed by Grand Duke Baoneng, not to play hide-and-seek in the castle. At that time, Rainbow was stunned for a while, her first thought was: This is also a joke! However, looking at the beautifully crafted bronze medal, it doesn't look like a joke.When she didn't understand, she sent a postcard to Bai Su.The reason why she didn't send the bronze medal immediately was because the postal facilities in that small town were poor and there was no postal package service.

After she left that small town, the more she thought about it, the more curious she was, and when she passed a small town, she sent me the bronze medal. The situation after I received the bronze medal has already been described at the beginning, so I won't repeat it. After Rainbow narrated her first experience, although she asked me not to interrupt her narration before the event, I promised her. In fact, because there were too many doubts, I said as soon as I heard her narration come to an end, "Wait a minute, I have a lot of things I don't understand, so I must ask you first! "

Rainbow said: "Don't ask if you're okay? In the first paragraph, if you hear something you don't understand, if you listen to it further, you will understand!" I insisted: "No, if I don't understand those doubts, I keep thinking about them in my heart, which will affect my concentration. I will listen to you and tell me about my future experience!" Rainbow sighed helplessly: "Okay, you can ask, I've prepared for you to ask any questions!" I immediately said: "Maybe we haven't met for many years, your personality has changed. I think it's hard to understand that your actions don't match your personality!"

Rainbow said: "For example——" I said: "For example, you touched a man's hand in the dark, and you thought it was a prank!" Rainbow said: "Yes, I thought so at the time!" I was stunned for a while, and Rainbow answered me like this, which means that things will indeed have unusual developments in the future, and I am too impatient.But I asked anyway: "You thought it was a prank, and you naturally thought that someone had come out of the fireplace?" Rainbow said: "That's exactly what I think." I said: "You didn't check to see if there was a secret passage in the fireplace after the incident. This is very inconsistent with your character who likes to find out the truth!"

Rainbow took a breath: "Yes, I have thought about this before, but one, I put away the bronze medal, and I felt a little guilty. Two, I was really scared at the time, afraid that things would not be as I thought, Then I don't know how to survive the second half of the night!" It is acceptable for Rainbow to explain it this way. I said again: "Also, where is your lighter? You didn't mention it again, where is it?" Rainbow sighed: "You are too impatient, this lighter, in my second experience, I found it again, but I didn't find it at that time, firstly, because I was flustered, secondly, the lighter is not expensive , it doesn’t matter if it’s gone, so I didn’t look for it.”

I nodded and said again: "Your cousin and I received your postcard. You wrote those few sentences very easily. It's not like you have had such a thrilling experience before!" Rainbow smiled: "I'm not a novelist, so I can't write down my experience in words. In fact, I just described it bluntly, without exaggeration at all. At that time, I had already left the Grand Duke's Castle, and, I I was really attracted by the prohibition on the bronze medal, and thought it was very strange and interesting, so I told you.” I nodded, and briefly told Rainbow about how I found Wang Jufeng after we received the postcard and bronze medal. Listen, and then said: "Wang Jufeng is here, where did you find you?"

Rainbow didn't answer, Wang Jufeng already said: "It's easy to find her. As soon as I arrived in the capital of Andorra, that small town has only 6,000 residents and a small airport. Rainbow is waiting at the airport every day. She wanted to wait for you to come. Yes, but wait for me!" Rainbow said: "Very few Chinese come to Andorra. Originally, I thought you would definitely come, but—" Rainbow did not wait for me at the airport in Andorra, but Wang Jufeng.When Wang Jufeng got off the plane and walked out of the airport, he saw Gao Caihong.Just as Rainbow said, very few Chinese came to Andorra, so Wang Jufeng walked towards Rainbow.

Wang Jufeng came to Rainbow, put down the suitcase, and introduced himself: "My name is Wang Jufeng, and I'm a friend of your cousin's husband, Wesley." Rainbow was very excited and said, "What about him?" Wang Jufeng said: "He didn't come, he sent me!" Rainbow looked a little puzzled: "Are you—" Wang Jufeng further introduced himself: "I study European history, especially the history of several small countries in Europe. I am very familiar with the castle of Grand Duke Baoneng. I saw the bronze medal you sent to Wesley, and I recognized it engraved on it. On the bronze medal is the signature of Grand Duke Baoneng, which is unbelievable for a person who studies the history of Andorra!"

Caihong was very disappointed when she heard that I didn’t come, but when she heard what Wang Jufeng said, she became elated again: “Really, it’s worth researching?” Wang Jufeng said: "It's very valuable for research! There are many records about Grand Duke Baoneng in history, but there has never been any record that he ever issued such a strange ban. Excuse me, where are you from and under what circumstances? The one who found the bronze medal?" Rainbow said: "It's a long story, if you are in a hurry, please get in my car, we will go to the Grand Duke's Castle immediately, there is no need to delay!" Wang Jufeng yelled: "When I came here, I felt that the plane was flying too slowly!" The two of them got into the car together, driven by Rainbow. Along the way, Rainbow told Wang Jufeng how he got the bronze medal. After Rainbow finished speaking, the restraint of the first acquaintance gradually disappeared between Wang Jufeng and Rainbow. Wang Jufeng asked in surprise, "Did that bronze medal fall out of the fireplace?" Rainbow said: "It must be like that, because at that time, I heard a 'dang' sound, that is the sound of the bronze medal falling to the ground." Wang Jufeng patted his forehead with his fingers: "It sounds unreasonable. Grand Duke Baoneng issued such a prohibition, and of course he hoped that everyone would abide by it. Then, this bronze medal should be inlaid in a conspicuous place. How could it be placed?" To the fireplace of a guest room?" Rainbow glared at him: "You asked me where it came from, and I told you the truth, whether it is reasonable or not, I don't know." Wang Jufeng saw that Rainbow was a little unhappy, he said: "I'm sorry, I just said it was a little weird." Rainbow said: "Of course it's weird, and it's not a little weird, but very weird! You think, if this bronze medal has been placed in a conspicuous place, it would have been seen a long time ago. In the records about the Grand Duke's Castle, there is also a It has been mentioned a long time ago. But neither of the two books about the Grand Duke’s Castle mentioned it, so it has been in a very hidden place!” Hearing what Rainbow said, Wang Jufeng whistled excitedly, and said, "Which two books have you read? One is 'Introduction to the Castle of Grand Duke Baoneng', that's not what—" When Wang Jufeng spoke up to this point, Caihong nodded and said, "That's just for tourists. The other book is 'Exploring the Castle of Grand Duke Baoneng', which is very special!" She glanced at Wang Jufeng: " For the past two days, I have been gnawing on this book in the library!" Wang Jufeng rubbed his hands excitedly: "You think that guy came out from the secret passage of the fireplace to scare you, and this alone is a great discovery!" Rainbow said: "Yes, this is the first discovery of the secret passage of the Grand Duke's Castle!" (Ashamed, I haven't read the two books they mentioned. So, when I heard their conversation like this, I was a little puzzled, and interjected: "Among all the castles, almost There are all secret passages, so what's so strange?") (Wang Jufeng replied: "You don't know much about the Grand Duke's Castle, and you haven't read the book, so you don't know. According to the situation when the castle was built, there must be extremely complete and complicated secret passages in the Grand Duke's Castle, but For a long time, only very common secret passages have been discovered. Experts believe that there are far more secret passages in the castle, but over the years, there have been no new discoveries. Therefore, the discovery of the rainbow is extremely important.”) (I heard him talking so miraculously, I couldn't help but said again: "Even if it is a major discovery, the person who discovered it is not Gao Caihong, but the person who came from the secret passage to make fun of her!") (At that time, Wang Jufeng and Caihong glared at me and said nothing.) Wang Jufeng and Caihong were talking and discussing the Grand Duke's Castle they knew. The time was easy to pass. That night, they stayed in a small town and continued driving the next day. On the way, they met several mountain dwellers. People, those few people saw them driving towards the mountains, their expressions were very surprised.Apparently by this time the tourists had long since disappeared. When Wang Jufeng and Rainbow arrived at the gate of the Grand Duke's Castle, the car started flying again, it was around 2:00 pm.Rainbow frantically honked the horn, but it lasted fifteen minutes, but there was no echo except for the echo from the mountains.Wang Jufeng got out of the car and came to the gate, only to see a wooden sign hanging on the gate of the ancient castle, with a notice in English, French and Spanish written on it: "This ancient castle has been closed, visitors must You can only enter and visit in May next year. All management personnel have left. If tourists want to get the materials of the castle, they can go to the nearest town to look for it. Please note that anyone who enters the Grand Duke Castle without authorization will violate the third criminal law. Twelve, you can be punished extremely severely." Wang Jufeng and Caihong were stunned for a while when they saw the notice.Wang Jufeng murmured: "I can't wait until next May to come again!" Rainbow was originally a person who was afraid of chaos in the world, she immediately said: "If there is no one in the castle, it will be more convenient for us to conduct research, don't you think?" Wang Jufeng's eyes glowed: "Of course, you mean to sneak in?" Rainbow spread his hands: "Is there a better proposal?" Wang Jufeng said: "No!" (I couldn't help sighing when I heard this. The local folk customs are very simple, and the residents also have a certain degree of love, reverence, or fear for the castle. And tourists will never come again at this time. Therefore, a sign like this is enough to defend the castle! But it is useless against Gao Caihong!) Wang Jufeng was not so unruly at first, but with Rainbow's encouragement, even those who obey the rules will mess around. The wall outside the castle is quite high, but the stones used to build the wall have been corroded due to their age, and there is no one around them at all, so they can act with confidence without any scruples. Therefore, Wang Jufeng and Gao Caihong took advantage of the cracks in the boulders on the wall, using both hands and feet, and climbed into the Grand Duke's Castle like monkeys. ("When you get close to vermilion, you get red, and when you get close to ink, you get black." Wang Jufeng was originally such a serious person, so serious that he didn't even smile often on his face, but when he was with Rainbow A day or two later, he actually climbed the wall and entered the Grand Duke's Castle!) After entering the Grand Duke's Castle, Rainbow was afraid of someone in the castle, so he yelled a few times, but there was no sound except for echoes.Those who have come to Rainbow once can be called popular and familiar.Although Wang Jufeng had been here several times before, but he came to visit officially, he didn't know where the administrator lived. Rainbow took Wang Jufeng to the courtyard where the management staff lived: "Let's go to the management staff's place first, find some tools, and hope to find some food. We may be delayed in the old castle for a long time!" Wang Jufeng agreed with Rainbow's solution. They went to the yard together, opened the rooms where all the management staff lived, and found them a lot of things, including a wealth of canned food, several bottles of wine, some practical tools and portable lights etc. Wang Jufeng couldn't wait any longer. When Caihong was still searching in the management staff's dormitory, he had already rounded the corner and arrived at the gate of the east wing of the ancient castle. But Wang Jufeng was in front of the gate for more than ten minutes, unable to enter because the gate was locked, and Wang Jufeng only studied European history, and had no experience in unlocking. More than ten minutes later, the rainbow came.Rainbow had some experience with lockpicking (from me), but the lock on the thick oak door was old, an ancient kind.Some of the ancient locks were much more complicated than modern locks, and there was no way to handle them like a rainbow. However, among the tools found by the rainbow, there was a sharp axe. (When I heard this, I couldn't help shouting: "No!") (Rainbow stares: "Why not?") (I shouted: "You... you hacked the door with an axe. This... is a crime against the history of Europe!") (Wang Jufeng obviously stood on this side of the rainbow: "At that time, I told myself that if we did this, we might rewrite the history of Europe and destroy a door. It's nothing, it can be repaired! Later, it proved my idea correct.") (I hummed: "What have you discovered? Does European history really need to be rewritten?") (Wang Jufeng stared at me, didn't answer for a long while, and then said: "I don't know, I don't know how to say it!" Rainbow also stared at me: "The door has already been opened, you will understand after listening, why are you arguing! ") (I had no choice but to spread my hands. I can deal with many people, but it is very difficult to deal with Rainbow!) Rainbow and Wang Jufeng hacked at the lock with sharp axes, and within three minutes, they split the lock. At that time, the surrounding area was very quiet, and when the sharp ax struck the oak door, the sound was extremely astonishing. Even if someone passed by a kilometer away, they would definitely be able to sense that something unusual happened in the Grand Duke’s Castle . If someone finds out, then the sabotage actions of Rainbow and Wang Jufeng will definitely be stopped.But unfortunately, there was no one at all, and they were allowed to destroy it! (I said "very unfortunate" because I was thinking at the time. It is extremely difficult to judge whether it is "fortunate" or "unfortunate" when things develop later.) As soon as the lock was split, even Wang Jufeng, who had always been serious, couldn't help cheering: "Do you know who I feel like now?" Rainbow said: "Who knows!" Wang Jufeng puffed up his chest and said, "I'm like the Duke of Orange who just surrendered James II's army! Now, the entire Duke's Castle is ours!" (At this time, Wang Jufeng compared himself to the Duke of Orange, which actually has a profound meaning.) (In 1688 AD, a coup took place in England, James II's army surrendered to the Duke of Orange, and Mary, the wife of the Duke of Orange, became the new monarch of England. At that time, Protestants welcomed Oren from the Netherlands The Duke and Duchess returned, while the Duke of Orange's wife, Mary, was the eldest daughter of James II and was Protestant.) (Wang Jufeng used this historical fact to imply a kind of love to Rainbow, but it is a pity that this way of expressing affection is not effective at all, because Rainbow knows very little about European history. It’s a wink for the blind”!”) Rainbow didn't respond at all at that time, Wang Jufeng was naturally quite disappointed, he decided to wait for another opportunity. The two of them entered the hall of the east wing, and Rainbow pointed to the stairs: "That room is right up there!" Wang Jufeng raised his head and glanced upwards: "I know that not long after the Grand Duke's Castle was built, there was a distinguished person who was a guest in this room. He was an admiral of the Spanish Navy and led the Spanish Navy across the seven seas! " Rainbow blinked: "This admiral likes hide and seek?" Questions like the rainbow, to Wang Jufeng who is serious about history, are naturally extremely naive. If someone else mentioned such a question, Wang Jufeng would definitely be furious.But at this time, he already had an inexplicable liking for the rainbow, so he found the problem of the rainbow very interesting, and laughed: "There is no such record in history—" After he said this sentence, he was startled suddenly, showing a very strange expression. Rainbow noticed his strange expression, and hurriedly said, "What's the matter? What... did you see?" Rainbow thought that Wang Jufeng had seen something strange in an instant, and that's why he had such a weird expression.Although it was daytime, in such a gloomy castle, it was always scary, so she couldn't help but moved closer to Wang Jufeng. Wang Jufeng's eyebrows were knotted, Rainbow looked at him, and after about half a minute, Wang Jufeng said: "It's a strange thing, it's a strange thing!" Rainbow was even more frightened, and looked around, trying to figure out what Wang Jufeng was referring to, but the castle was empty and gloomy, and it didn't look like any strange things had happened. Wang Jufeng said to himself: "The admiral stayed in the Grand Duke's Castle for a few days and had a meeting with the Grand Duke Baoneng, but when he left the Grand Duke's Castle and returned to Spain, he suddenly stopped by. After the announcement, he left the navy and became a hermit in a monastery in southern Spain. What a strange thing, a powerful admiral suddenly became a hermit, what a strange thing!" Only then did Rainbow know that Wang Jufeng's "strange incident" did not refer to any strange incidents in the castle, but to the history of Europe.She couldn't help but glared at Wang Jufeng: "Can you talk less about European history? What we want to explore is this ancient castle!" Wang Jufeng said: "Don't you think that the general's sudden transformation into a hermit has something to do with the Grand Duke's Castle?" Rainbow is a smart person. When Wang Jufeng said this, she immediately understood what Wang Jufeng meant, and said, "You mean, this general—" Wang Jufeng said: "Admiral Pearson!" Rainbow said: "Pearson became a hermit because he lived in the Grand Duke's Castle for a few days?" At this time, while they were talking, they had already reached the door of the room where Rainbow once lived on the third floor. Wang Jufeng stretched out his hand and pointed at the door: "To be precise, he lived in this room in the castle for a few days before suddenly becoming a hermit!" Rainbow looked at him and said, "You said the room is weird?" Wang Jufeng said: "It must be, you are also in this room and encountered strange things!" Rainbow said loudly: "What I encountered is not a strange thing, it was just a prank by a boring person, trying to scare me, but it didn't scare me!" Wang Jufeng didn't say anything, and stretched out his hand to push open the door. That room was still the same. It was no different from when Rainbow came last time. The furnishings and all the decorations were completely in their original positions.The room was very dark, Wang Jufeng came to the window, opened the curtain, and the room became brighter. Wang Jufeng turned around, and he had already taken out the bronze medal: "At that time, where did you see this bronze medal?" Rainbow pointed to the ground in front of the fireplace: "Here!" Wang Jufeng walked over and put the bronze medal where the rainbow pointed: "Is it here? Nothing wrong at all?" Rainbow was a little angry: "Of course it can't be all wrong, but it's here!" Wang Jufeng was serious about everything he did, and he asked again: "Are you sure that the bronze medal was not on the floor when you entered the room?" Rainbow is a short-tempered person, she got a little impatient, and said loudly: "You can also see, this bronze medal is not small, if it was on the ground, and I am not blind, how could I not see it?" Wang Jufeng still didn't notice Rainbow's impatience, and said again: "Are you sure it fell out of the fireplace?" The rainbow raised the voice even higher: "It was pitch black, and I only heard the sound of the bronze medal falling to the ground. I don't know where it fell from, but I think it fell out of the fireplace! Your question, ask Is it over?" Wang Jufeng was stunned for a moment, only to realize that Miss Caihong had a temper and was not easy to take care of. He didn't say anything, bent down, looked into the fireplace, lit a portable lamp, and looked into the fireplace. Rainbow joined him, looking into the fireplace. Of course, the fireplace has not been used for quite a long time, and it is very clean. Wang Jufeng looked at it while feeling with his hands. Rainbow asked, "What are you touching?" Wang Jufeng said: "There are small holes in the four corners of this bronze medal. It should have been nailed somewhere. I want to find its original location. There should also be nail holes in that place!" Rainbow smiled bitterly: "How big is the fireplace, you should see that there are no nail holes!" Wang Jufeng withdrew his hand: "Yes, there are no nail holes, and the fireplace has been cleaned. If the bronze medal was originally nailed inside the fireplace, it should have been discovered long ago!" Rainbow said, "Maybe from the chimney—" In the middle of her talk, she didn't go on, because she poked her head into the fireplace and could see the chimney. The chimney was quite narrow, and the bronze medal could not fit in it at all! Wang Jufeng murmured: "Grand Duke Baoneng issued such a ban, and solemnly cast it into a bronze medal. I must think that everyone knows that there is such a ban in the castle, so the bronze medal should be placed most prominently." The right place is!" Rainbow glared at him: "According to your reasoning, this bronze medal shouldn't appear in this room at all!" Wang Jufeng smiled wryly, "This is really weird, I really don't understand—" Rainbow said, "I have an idea!" Wang Jufeng looked at her, Rainbow said: "I think this prohibition is a bit strange and unrefined. Ordinary people who live in ancient castles don't like hide-and-seek. People who like hide-and-seek must Try to use the dark passages in the castle—" Rainbow, please come here, Wang Jufeng has already called out: "This bronze medal, it turned out to be nailed in the secret passage!" Rainbow said: "Yes, that's what it means! Therefore, we should look for the secret passage, and I can be sure that one of the exits of the secret passage is in this fireplace!" Wang Jufeng said: "Yes, someone came out of this fireplace once, and you touched his hand in the dark!" Rainbow nodded and said, "Yes, I touched his hand!" Wang Jufeng and Rainbow began to look for the hinge that could open the exit of the secret passage near the fireplace. They moved all the decorations and turned everything that seemed to be able to turn. In the end, they even joined forces to move the four-poster bed, Moved a location. However, the fireplace is still a fireplace, and there is no hidden door suddenly opened.They began to dismantle the fireplace again, removing all the decorations outside the fireplace, and moved out the iron frame underneath. At this point, there is really nothing left to look for.There is no hidden door in the fireplace, the only "passage" is the narrow chimney, and the chimney cannot climb into a person. Wang Jufeng stopped, looked at Rainbow, Rainbow kicked the wall, and said: "There must be a secret passage inside, but we can't find its entrance and exit, I think, if the wall is taken apart—" Rainbow's proposal was immediately rejected by Wang Jufeng. The reason why Wang Jufeng rejected Rainbow's proposal was not because Rainbow's proposal was too nonsense, but because he felt that the wall made of big stones could not be dismantled by the two of them with simple tools! The rainbow was born angrily. At this time, they had been busy for several hours, and the sky had already darkened. Wang Jufeng was walking around in the room, patting his forehead with his hands, thinking. Rainbow suddenly said: "I'm hungry!" Wang Jufeng raised his head: "Oh, I'm hungry! Yes, I'm hungry too! Should we eat something?" Rainbow said angrily: "When Lionheart King Jicha is thinking about difficult problems, he will also be hungry. When he is hungry, of course he should eat, everyone is the same!" Rainbow said as he walked out: "I'm going to get something to eat! Are you coming?" Wang Jufeng was really reluctant to leave this room, but he was hungry, and he was embarrassed to ask Rainbow to bring food to him, so he had to follow Rainbow out. They came to the management staff's residence, got some canned food, and filled their hunger indiscriminately. Both of them were very disappointed, so neither of them wanted to speak.When his stomach was full, Wang Jufeng said: "Shall we go to that room to find the secret passage?" Rainbow smiled bitterly: "What are you looking for? There must be a secret passage, but we can't find it!" Wang Jufeng said: "Perhaps in that room, the structure of the secret passage is particularly ingenious, so we can't find it!" Rainbow was already downcast, but when he heard Wang Jufeng say this, he jumped up suddenly: "Yes, let's look elsewhere!" (When I heard this, I couldn't help sighing. The Grand Duke's Castle was robbed. I don't know how much it will be destroyed by Rainbow and Wang Jufeng! Rainbow can mess around, and Wang Jufeng really shouldn't follow her!) (Wang Jufeng must have seen my expression of blaming him, and immediately said: "I have no choice, you think, Rainbow obviously touched a human hand in the dark, that person must have walked in through a secret passage, And we can't find it, if you, would you stop there?") (I sighed, unable to answer Wang Jufeng's question.) In the next few days, Wang Jufeng and Gao Caihong started from the east wing, searched for secret passages, and found the west wing.They searched very carefully, and then found it in the cellar.When Wang Jufeng went there, he brought information about the Grand Duke's Castle. There was a record of the secret passage in the document, but it was just an ordinary secret passage, which was already open to visitors, so it was not a secret.And apart from those secret passages, they didn't find anything. (Hearing this, I couldn't help interjecting: "I've never seen such stupid people as you!") (Rainbow said angrily: "What can you do?") (I said: "When you spent the night in the castle for the first time, there was only you and an administrator in the castle, right? What's the administrator's name?") (Rainbow said angrily: "My name is Gu Ang, tell me first, what can you do? Why are Wang Jufeng and I stupid?") (I said: "You said that the hand you touched in the room was Gu Ang who came to scare you—") (Rainbow said loudly: "Of course it's him!") (I immediately said: "That's it, why do you bother to find the secret passage? Find the administrator Gu Ang and ask him where the secret passage is, won't there be results?") (Rainbow snorted: "First, Gu Ang is gone, I know where he lives. Second, let others point out where the secret passage is, how can I find it myself?") (I was also a little annoyed when I heard Rainbow say that: "You are doing it for fun, so I don't feel comfortable expressing any opinions!") Caihong and Wang Jufeng continued to look for secret passages in other rooms, but there was no result, and they were about to give up. In the process of Caihong and Wang Jufeng looking for secret passages together, Wang Jufeng's impression of Caihong became better and better, so when Caihong made a proposal that any normal adult would object to, Wang Jufeng agreed without even thinking about it. down. Rainbow suggested: "Hmph, Grand Duke Baoneng issued an order not to play hide-and-seek in this ancient castle. We want to play hide-and-seek in the ancient castle. You hide, I'll come find you!" Wang Jufeng said: "Okay! I'll go and hide. Come to me in half an hour, don't peek!" At that time, the two of them were in a room at the end of the second floor of the west wing.They walked from room to room in the east wing, so they were in the last room in the castle at that time. After they decided to play hide-and-seek in the castle, Gao Caihong stayed in the room, and Wang Jufeng went out to "hide". Hide-and-seek games all over the world are all the same. After the hiding party starts to hide, the looking party starts to search after a certain period of time. After a certain period of time, the other party is found. The game is decided and the game is over. . After Wang Jufeng left the room, Gao Caihong sat down in a huge easy chair in the room, and after ten minutes, she walked out of the room and began to look for Wang Jufeng. Because the Grand Duke's castle is so huge, the east wing and west wing each have five floors, including the cellar, a total of six floors. They have counted a total of 137 rooms in the process of searching for secret passages. Wang Jufeng and Gao Caihong corrected the mistakes in two books about the Grand Duke's Castle, both of which said that the Grand Duke's Castle had only 120 rooms.So as soon as Gao Caihong walked out of the room and began to search, she knew that if she searched from room to room, she would definitely fail. She had to think about where Wang Jufeng would be hiding! Wang Jufeng can hide in any one of the 137 rooms!Rainbow is not going to look for each room in turn. She wants to find Wang Jufeng in the shortest possible time. She is thinking: If she is the one who hides, where will she hide?It must be hiding in the place where the other party is least likely to think of, the most unexpected place. Rainbow immediately thought of the place: the room on the third floor of the East Wing, the room where she found the bronze medal! That was the one they were most familiar with! As soon as Rainbow thought of this, she immediately ran from the west wing of the ancient castle to the east wing. While running, she also kept on guarding against her own predictions, so she bluffed all the way: "Wang Jufeng, I know where you are hiding!" ! I see! Come out!" The cry of the rainbow echoed in the huge castle. Twenty minutes later, she rushed into that room. As soon as she reached the door, she knew that she had guessed well, because the room in that room The door was not completely closed, leaving a gap. When they were looking for secret passages in the entire castle, they left a room and closed the door completely. If no one came again, there would never be a crack in the door.In the ancient castle, there were only the two of them. If anyone had been here, it must be Wang Jufeng! Gao Caihong was extremely happy in her heart, playing hide-and-seek in such a huge castle, and she was able to find him in less than half an hour, this is really something to be proud of! Rainbow stretched out his hand, pushed open the door, and shouted: "You hide here, come out quickly, you lose!" Rainbow yelled, and stood still with his hands on his hips, waiting for Wang Jufeng to come out and surrender with his hands raised high. But she waited for a while, but Wang Jufeng did not appear. Rainbow couldn't help being angry and funny, and said: "Okay, you still refuse to admit defeat? Do you really want me to find you out?" As she spoke, she began to look for Wang Jufeng in this room.Rainbow thought in his heart, as long as Wang Jufeng is in this room, it couldn't be easier to find him!She lifted the mattress and looked under the bed, there was nothing there.She opened the door of the cupboard and looked inside, there was nothing there.She shakes back the curtains, no, she pokes her head into the fireplace, no. Five minutes later, Rainbow knew that Wang Jufeng could not be in this room!The door of the room was ajar, maybe it was Wang Jufeng's trick to lure her to waste time in this room on purpose! Rainbow is embarrassed and angry. Where did Wang Jufeng hide? Thinking about it, Rainbow began to search in other places. As time passed, the more she searched, the more hopeless she felt! Finally, it was getting dark. Generally speaking, in hide-and-seek games, you need to set a certain time. During this time, if the one who is looking cannot find the one who is hiding, then the one who is catching loses! At this time, Rainbow has been searching for five hours, and has already lost.However, she and Wang Jufeng didn't agree on a good time, so Gao Caihong didn't have to admit defeat.She kept looking. She rested for a while, made a cup of coffee, ate some biscuits, and secretly cursed Wang Jufeng in her heart, who refused to admit defeat and appeared automatically.After a break, Rainbow continued to search until midnight, but Rainbow still couldn't find Wang Jufeng. At this time, Rainbow began to be afraid.Where did Wang Jufeng hide?It has been more than ten hours, Wang Jufeng should have run out by himself! The more Gao Caihong thought about it, the more wrong she was, she gave up!她在东翼大厅中大叫:“王居风,我认输了!你出来吧!” 彩虹的叫声,绝对可以到达东翼的每一间房间之中,和每一个角落。但是她叫了好久又到中央大厅去叫,然后,到西翼大厅去叫。 王居风无论如何,应该出来了! 彩虹回到了管理员的住所,下半夜她没有再到古堡去找,等着王居风自己出现。但是,王居风没有出现。 这一个下半夜,彩虹只是勉强瞌睡了一回。第二天一早,她一间一间房间去找,去叫,这花了她足足一个上午,可是,王居风显然不在古堡之中! 彩虹十分恼怒:王居风犯规!讲好在古堡之中捉迷藏,他怎么可以不躲在古堡之中?所以下午,她赌气不再找,只是睡觉,一觉睡醒,天色黑了,王居风还是没有出现。 彩虹觉得事情不妙!王居风不可能经过三十小时的躲藏仍然不出现,古今中外,决没有任何人玩捉迷藏可以躲这么久! 这一夜,彩虹简直没有睡过,她已经知道无法找到王居风,可是又怕王居风是在古堡的哪一个角落,遭到了甚么意外,正需要人帮助,她不能坐着等王居风出现!于是,她提着手提灯,再一次去找王居风。 这一次是在夜间,而且王居风的突然失踪,来得如此之神秘,彩虹在古堡中,每走出一步,心就更剧烈地跳动几十下,一面走,一面叫着,又一面用心倾听着,希望听到王居风会发出求救的声音来。这时候,她肯定王居风遭到意外了! 可是当她在用心倾听之际,除了古堡外面的风声和她自己叫嚷的回声之外,没有任何其他的声响。她甚至希望可以听到老鼠的咀嚼声,可是就是一点声音也没有。 这一晚,等到快天亮的时候,高彩虹支持不住了!连彩虹这样的人也支持不住,那环境之恶劣实在可想而知。当时,她在中间大厅内,她实在无法再忍得住,放声大哭起来。 (我听到这里,要竭力忍着,才能不发出笑声。彩虹有这样的经历,大快人心。像彩虹这样的人,如果不是给她受点教训,她玩出味道来,下一次,可能会想到克里姆林宫去捉迷藏!) (当我忍不住心中高兴之际,我向王居风望去,心中在暗赞王居风真了不起,因为王居风说不出来就不出来,可以令得彩虹着急得放声大哭,那真不容易。) (当我向王居风望去的时候,我想,王居风多少也应该有点高兴的神情。可是出乎我的意料之外,王居风非但一点高兴的神情也没有,反倒是神情惘然,极度惘然,不知所措!) (彩虹打电话给我,说王居风不见了,而当我来到,王居风又赫然在彩虹的身边,因此可知,王居风终于出现。当然,根据这一事实来推论,王居风一直躲着。我真想说:“你究竟躲在甚么地方,躲了那么久!”) (可是我的话并未说出口,因为当时王居风和高彩虹两人的样子都十分奇特,他们的神情,使我觉得不应该在这时候打趣彩虹。) (然而,王居风究竟躲在甚么地方呢?如果我不问一下,我相信我的喉咙会痒得忍受不住,所以我还是问道:“王居风,你躲在甚么地方?”) (奇怪的是,彩虹和王居风,像是都未曾听到我的问题一样,彩虹自顾自讲下去,王居风也不理我。我只好心中叹一口气,再听彩虹讲下去。) 彩虹哭了很久,天渐渐亮了,她觉得再这样等下去不是办法,就冲出了大公古堡,驾车下山,到了首都附近的一个小机场,想和我通话,可是那地方的长途电话接不过来,她无法可施,才只好租了一架飞机,直飞马德里,再和我通话,告诉我,王居风因为和她玩捉迷藏,在大公古堡中失踪了!
