Chapter 305: Rat in the wall! The light buried deep in the earth!

"Tom! Tom! Hey! Tom!"
In the ancient castle, an old voice kept calling Tang Mu's name.Character.
After just a good night's sleep, he arrived at this place inexplicably, leaving Tom Mu still a little confused about the situation.
Just lying on the cashmere blanket where he was, looking at the surrounding environment.
After a while, it seemed that it was because he didn't receive a response from himself.
Now the owner of the voice slowly walked up.
No one has arrived yet.
Tom Mu first heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the ground.
Tang Muxun shouted.
You can see the entrance of a spiral staircase on the side of the room.
This old castle is very old.
There is some moss on the large bluestone on the wall next to the stairs.
There are some signs of recent cleaning on it.
But it obviously has no effect.
The moss has grown back again.
"Oh! All this damn moss. I think I should burn it, it's so wet."
No one has been seen yet.
The light of the oil lamp first came from under the spiral staircase.
The light gradually swayed up from below, and a huge black shadow was also reflected on the wall by the light.
With complaints and footsteps.
The figure who spoke before is getting closer and closer.
Not long after, a white-haired man wearing a coat and holding an oil lamp slowly walked up the steps.
The old man's hand was a little withered, but he held the oil lamp in his hand very tightly.
The flickering light of the lamp shone on the old man, pulling his figure back very tall.
In this cramped castle room, there is a strong sense of oppression.
"Meow--!"
A shrill scream sounded beside Tang Mu.
This sudden movement startled Tom Mu!
Turning around to look at the line, black shadows emerged from under the big bed next to them, quickly passed over Tom Mu and surrounded the old man's feet.
Now Tang Mu could see clearly, they were eight cats of different colors.
Including myself, there are probably nine.
Tom Mu was not sure why the old man in front of him kept so many cats.
"Tom, you are here, go down and eat quickly."
Delapore spoke, his voice very hoarse.
It was like two rusty files rubbing against his throat.
When he first arrived, Tang Mu didn't want to act too abnormal, so he walked downstairs with the old man.
Tom followed the spiral staircase all the way down.
When passing by a small window by the stairs, I looked outside.
I found that I couldn't see anything clearly outside.
It's just pitch black.
The depth below was even more bottomless, giving Tang Mu an unsteady feeling like he was walking a tightrope over an abyss.
The castle where it is currently located seems to be built on the edge of a cliff.
Being in this old castle always gave Tom Mu a rather contradictory feeling.
Both solid and empty.
It is obviously a stone castle built for several centuries, and it should give people a solid and solid feeling.
But in line with the external environment.
Tang Mu always felt that the next second, this castle would collapse together with the cliff and fall into the bottomless abyss.
The footsteps of humans and cats echoed in the spiral staircase.
Tom Mu felt like he had walked for a long time before he reached the hall below.
In the hall, the maid and butler have prepared food.
It can be seen that the old man really comes from a wealthy family.
However, this wealthy family also seems to be a bit of a cat slave.
Even though there are so many people at home, even though he is old, he still climbs the stairs to find people.
A row of cat bowls are neatly placed in front of the dining table.
Inside is food for cats.
At this time, it seems that industrialized cat food has not yet appeared.
But no matter what kind of cat food it is, Tom Mu will not eat it even if he is beaten to death.
Old Man Delapore had also sat down and began to enjoy his dinner.
Holding the knife and fork in hand, Delapore cut off a piece of veal steak and stuffed it into his mouth.
It can be seen that the steak was cooked very delicious by the chef.
But the old man, who is thin and has a withered face, feels like nothing.
"Have you bought all the mousetraps?"
Delapore had no appetite. After taking two bites, he didn't really want to eat anymore.
"Master, everything has been arranged."
The housekeeper standing aside lowered his head and said, "According to your instructions, mouse traps have been placed in all places on the first floor where mice may appear."
Although the old housekeeper doesn't think there are a lot of rats here as the old man said.
But after all, it was the master's order, and the old housekeeper must handle it honestly no matter what.
As an old butler, he knew exactly what he wanted to do.
"very good."
Delapore nodded.
But suddenly, Delapore, who was still normal at first, suddenly held his head and screamed!
His face became extremely terrifying.
Drapore, who was so old that only a piece of skin was left hanging on his face, raised his hand and scratched his face with his nails very hard!
Just after grabbing it, there were already several blood stains on Delapore's face!
"Ah! Rats! There are so many rats in the wall! Rats are everywhere!"
"Tom! Catch them! Catch them!"
A person who was fine before.
The next second he fell completely into madness.
"Master!"
The old housekeeper next to him was also shocked!
Shouting, he rushed forward and grabbed Delapore's scratching hand with all his strength.
The servants around are all recruited locally.
They have never seen such a person before.
When I saw the new owner going crazy, I was immediately at a loss..
Fortunately, the cats at the dining table seem to have gotten used to all this.
Delapore was just starting to go crazy.

The cats who were eating there normally went crazy!
The eight cats except Tom dispersed, scratching and scratching at the surrounding stone walls, growling sharply!
The cats' meowing sounds are very high-pitched and threatening.
In the restaurant, eight cats were running around and barking, as if they were really catching mice.
But the servants around him looked at each other, and they didn't hear anything.
Let alone seeing the so-called rat with his own eyes.
But both my master and the cats seemed to indicate that there were indeed mice here.
Such anomalies reminded these locally recruited servants of some bad rumors.
Suddenly, everyone was trembling uncontrollably, with a look of fear on their faces.
The working environment here is too weird and depressing.
It always makes them feel very uncomfortable.
If it weren't for the fact that the master is a normal person most of the time and the salary he pays is quite high.
Even if they were killed, they would not continue to work here.
Tom Mu was still sitting at the dining table, squinting his eyes and raising his ears to observe his surroundings.
The old man said he heard a lot of rat noises.
This is indeed true.
Because it heard it too.
Just within the surrounding walls.
It's not just the walls.
Even the ceiling beneath your feet and above your head is like this.
Listening to the dense sounds, I'm afraid it's not just a few or a dozen.
At least hundreds or thousands!
Just listening to the sound, they seemed to be surrounded by a cage composed of a large swarm of rats.
One after another, dirty rats with slender tails moved and rubbed in the wall, making irregular "squeaking" sounds from time to time.
Not to mention Delapore.
Even Tom Mu felt his scalp numb.
I don't know if Tom Mu has said it before.
In fact, it hates mice very much.
It's the kind of hard-haired rat you see every day.
It has a pointed mouth, hairless claws, and a slender tail like an earthworm with circles of rings.
All this made Tom feel uncomfortable and nauseous.
Snakes, insects, rats and ants.
Snakes, insects, ants, and Tom Mu all accepted it, but the wire-haired mouse couldn't.
This was the case when Tom was still human.
There is no change even if I become a cat.
Tom Mu would get goosebumps just looking at such a disgusting creature like a mouse.
Not to mention getting up close and personal.
At this time, listening to the dense sounds of mice moving around, Tang Mu's whole cat's scalp exploded, and his eyes became a little red.
​As a man.
With one or two mice, Tom could suppress his nausea and catch and drive them away.
Just like in the world of "Doraemon", it replaced Doraemon and caught a mouse once.
But now this scene has begun to really oppress its sensitive nerves.
That means you can't see those disgusting rats yet.
If the floor tiles under your feet, the surrounding walls, and the ceiling above your head all become transparent glass, you can directly see the mice inside.
I'm afraid Tom Mu will have to bring out the nuclear bomb and have a one-click love scene!
"Tom! What are you still doing here? Go catch mice too."
Under the comfort of the butler, Delapore seemed to be in a better condition.
But looking at the fuming Tang Mu at the dining table, he couldn't help but urge him.
When there are cats around, the noise of those mice will be much less.
It would also relax Delapore's nerves.
This is why he keeps so many cats.
Among them, his favorite is the cat Tom.
As a mouse-catching champion, Tom Cat was bought at a high price by him specifically for catching mice.
After hearing what Delapore said, Tom jumped directly onto the dining table, then took out a knife and gave it to Delapore.
With a confused expression on his face, he pointed at the surrounding walls.
It means, you have to catch yourself.
I don't want to serve you.
With so many rats, if I were to catch them myself, I might as well just wipe out the castle together.
It's very efficient and you don't have to come into close contact with disgusting rats.
Delapore looked at the knife in his hand and was a little confused.
Looking at Tom Mu on the dining table, he seemed to be looking at a strange cat.
Fortunately, the other eight cats are all model workers.
He ran around the wall of the restaurant several times and kept making threatening meows.
The movement of the mice around them also gradually slowed down.
This made Delapore's nerves obviously relaxed a lot.
Putting the knife aside casually, Delapore did not pay attention to Tom Mu's changes.
"Let's go and see the mousetrap."
It seems that Delapore has no appetite for dinner again.
Tom sat down directly in Delapore's seat.
Throwing aside the plate of beef that Delapore had touched.
He grabbed the other food on the table and pulled it in front of him, and started to eat it directly.
When the servants around him saw it, they were all at a loss again.
While Tom was eating dinner in this strange world, he observed the servants around him.
Just nowHou Tangmu discovered it.
It seemed that except for the old man and his group of cats, no one else seemed to hear the mouse.
This means that those mice are obviously not ordinary mice.
It is also possible that everything is a targeted hallucination.
Maybe even mice have never appeared in this castle.
Tom ate everything on the table without any concern, and then went to find Delapore.
The old housekeeper really filled this old castle with mousetraps.
Those who are very experienced have placed them in places where rats are most likely to infest.
Looking at the mousetraps all over the house and the kittens spinning around him, Delapore's expression became much more relaxed.
Soon, it was evening.
Delapore fell asleep in his room.
But he had just fallen asleep, and his brows suddenly tightened.
In his dream, a hooded swineherd appeared.
All around the hunched pigherder were naked white four-legged creatures crawling.
It was a really dark crawl.
Just looking at it makes people feel a strong mental discomfort.
This made Delapore struggle fiercely, trying to get rid of this weird dream.
The next second!
Delapore opened his eyes suddenly!
Then Delapore screamed again!
The moment the old man opened his eyes, he seemed to see thousands of rats gathering densely in his room.
The floor was full of rats squeezing the rats, and there was absolutely nowhere to put their feet.
So much so that the rats crawled all over Delapore's bed.
There were densely packed rats all over Delapore's quilt, chest, and pillows!
There were even six rat kings whose tails were stuck together due to feces and secretions.
It looks even more disgusting!
The moment Delapore woke up.
All the mice in the room stared at him with their green bean-like eyes.
This made Delapore couldn't help but scream again!
"Master! Master! What's wrong with you?"
The old housekeeper heard Delapore's cry and rushed over holding an oil lamp.
"Rat! Rat! It's all rats!"
Delapore was already a little frightened.
The housekeeper quickly lit the candle in this room and handed a glass of water to Delapore.
But when he looked at the clean room, his face was full of doubts.
He didn't see a mouse at all!
Let alone a mouse, not even a single mouse hair can be seen!
But seeing Delapore's frightened look, the old housekeeper didn't know what to say, so he could only call the cat in the castle to accompany him.
Delapore relaxed a lot with the cats around.
Finally fell asleep again.
The next day, Drapore screamed again.
It turned out that all the mousetraps in the castle were triggered.
But I couldn't catch a single mouse hair!
Strange things happened one after another, making the atmosphere in the entire castle even more depressing.
In fact, it's not just this castle.
When he arrived in a new place, of course Tom Mu couldn't just sit around and do nothing.
So it looked around the next day.

I found that the atmosphere in this whole world is very depressing.
The old castle it is in now is actually a monastery.
It's just that it has been abandoned in the past few years.
Until recent years, old man Drapore returned to his hometown castle, probably because he was getting older.
A large sum of money was spent on renovations.
Originally, Delapore was in pretty good shape.
But since he moved into this monastery, his spirit has become worse and worse day by day, and he has become nervous.
There is a small town near the monastery, and many locals there seem to know something.
I am very afraid of this monastery.
In addition, Tom Mu also felt that this world gave him a very familiar feeling.
But I couldn't remember it for a while.
In the end, Tom Mu could only stop thinking about the problems of this world for the time being.
I plan to try my best to solve the problem of this castle and monastery first.
It can come here, and if you want to go back, you may have to find the answer here.
In the next few days, the atmosphere in the castle monastery became increasingly depressing.
The various mouse traps set by the old butler will always be triggered.
But nothing could be caught.
Delapore was becoming more and more nervous.
He always said there were rats in the wall, but when he cut the wall open, there was nothing inside.
Some servants could no longer stand the atmosphere here and resigned.
But as time went by, Delapore's situation did not get any better.
On the contrary, his condition became worse.
It's not just a mental problem.
Even the physical body gradually underwent some changes.
The more Tom looked at him, the more he felt like a big mouse.
Listen to the conversation between Delapore and the old housekeeper.
He has been having a recurring dream recently.
The content of that dream was actually the same as the dream I had in the Defense Force.
This further strengthened Tom Mu's idea.
It will come here, and it is indeed related to Drapore.
"Hehe! WeYou have to go underground and take a look! The ground is full of rats! "
One day, Delapore suddenly grabbed the old housekeeper and laughed nervously.
"What?"
Before the old housekeeper could react, Delapore, who looked more and more like a large mouse, was already walking towards the monastery hall.
He took a crowbar, walked to the center of the hall with ease, and pried open a whole floor tile there!
At this moment, a stench suddenly came out.
As soon as Tang Mu smelled the smell, he immediately took out a gas mask and put it on his head.
He also took out air freshener and sprayed it around.
Only then did I feel a little better.
The old housekeeper was surprised when he saw Tang Mu's behavior.
But Delapore ignored the changes outside and directly pulled the old housekeeper towards the floor tiles.
There seems to be a basement attached there.
Tang Mu did not hesitate and quickly followed.
The basement below is very spacious.
There are many strange words and graphics in it.
It feels more like an altar.
In the middle of the altar, there was a vague humanoid statue, which gave people a rather weird feeling.
Tang Mu just took a look, and many hallucinations appeared around him.
These hallucinations are really annoying.
Tang Mu frowned and stretched out his claws to fish around.
Soon he caught all the hallucinations in his hands and squeezed them tightly into a small ball like colored plasticine.
Tom Mu's actions seemed to frighten the stone statue.
It trembled visibly to the naked eye.
Tom Mu looked doubtfully.
The stone statue has returned to normal, and there seems to be no change.
"Down below, the mouse is down there, squeak! squeak!"
Drapore hunched over and groped around the stone altar statue for a while, as if he had turned on some switch.
The altar immediately moved away, revealing the deeper steps below...
Under there, Tang Mu actually felt a trace of light.
