The boss has no descendants, but he encounters four smaller versions of himself

Chapter 493 Maze

Seeing that Su Yutang was about to get up to look for the four little treasures, Bo Jingzhou quickly stopped her. He leaned over slightly and whispered in her ear: "Don't be impulsive, be careful of falling into a trap."

Su Yutang was too worried about the safety of the four little treasures. When she heard Lawrence's words, she thought the four little treasures were in danger, so she got excited.

She looked into Lawrence's blue eyes with a hint of coldness. "Aren't there maids with them? Could that maid have taken them to the restricted area?"

Lawrence sneered and said, "The maid here takes orders from anyone in the Bron family. As for whether she will take the young masters to places they shouldn't go, that's hard to say. After all, the situation here is complicated, and no one can guarantee that everything will go smoothly."

Su Yutang clenched her hands unconsciously. She knew that Lawrence was deliberately provoking and making things difficult for her.

But she was worried that she was overthinking it, and Butler Rawson had just assured her that the young master would be fine here.

So, without any evidence, she couldn't argue with Lawrence.

Bo Jingzhou looked at Lawrence and spoke slowly: "Mr. Lawrence, we are new here and don't know the rules here. If the little treasures are really in danger, please do not stand idly by for the sake of our relatives."

When Lawrence heard what Bo Jingzhou said, he was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

There was a hint of inquiry in his eyes as he looked at Bo Jingzhou, as if he admired Bo Jingzhou for being able to remain calm in such a situation, but he still couldn't hide the disdain deep in his eyes.

"Don't worry, no one dares to take action in Bron Castle."

Lawrence pulled the corner of his mouth with an ambiguous smile, threw down these words, then turned around and strode out.

His back looked extremely arrogant, as if he didn't care about anything.

Su Yutang looked at Lawrence's back, still a little worried: "What exactly does he mean by this? Will the little treasures be in danger?"

Bo Jingzhou's eyes were deep. He turned to look at Su Yutang and said comfortingly, "Don't worry too much. Although his attitude is bad, he shouldn't dare to do anything reckless in the castle."

He paused, then continued, "Perhaps he just said that to scare us. If you really go and fall into Lawrence's trap, it will only make things worse."

Su Yutang glanced at Bo Jingzhou, and her heart calmed down a little.

......

Over there, the four little treasures were taken by a maid to a remote side hall. After passing through the winding corridor and turning several corners, the maid suddenly disappeared around the corner.

Erbao stood on tiptoe and peeked out, scratching the back of his head with his fingers and muttering, "Strange, where is she? I clearly saw her coming just now, how come she disappeared in the blink of an eye?"

As he said this, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Dabao's nerves suddenly tensed up, and his pupils contracted slightly: "We've been led astray. That maid did it on purpose."

Erbao's eyes widened: "So, we were cheated?"

Dabao nodded.

Sanbao looked puzzled: "What's her purpose in tricking us here?"

Sibao frowned: "She definitely has bad intentions."

Erbao angrily kicked the carved pottery jar at his feet and looked at the dried flowers scattered inside. He said angrily, "Humph, there's nothing to eat here. I made this trip for nothing."

He touched his rumbling stomach and said, "Forget it, I'll go find something to eat myself!"

"Mommy told us not to run around. What if we get lost?" Dabao grabbed Erbao by the back of his collar. "Let's go back as soon as possible."

Erbao twisted his body and struggled: "I'm in the castle, I won't get lost! Besides, this is our great-grandfather's house, it's our own home, it's not like I'm running around!"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of a mechanism turning behind him.

Sibao pointed in the direction they came from and said, "The wall... the wall is moving!"

Everyone looked back and saw that the stone wall they had just passed was slowly closing.

Sanbao suddenly pointed at the ceiling and exclaimed, "Look up!"

Several kerosene lamps lit up one after another, illuminating the murals on the dome.

The four little treasures gasped at the same time.

Because a huge painting depicting a bloody wedding suddenly appeared above his head. The bride's face was covered with a veil, and the groom's face was shrouded in shadow. Only the crane-shaped birthmark on his neck was glowing with a strange red light.

If you look closely, you can see that the bride's face looks somewhat similar to her mother's.

The four little treasures looked up at the mural, the scarlet kerosene lamp dancing in their pupils.

This scene was inexplicably eerie and terrifying, but the four little treasures remained very calm.

Erbao pointed at the woman on the mural and said, "Why does she look so much like Mommy? Could it be Mommy?"

Sanbao shook his head: "But the groom doesn't look like Daddy."

The four little treasures felt a little strange and didn't understand why there was such a strange mural in this place.

At this time, Erbao put his hands on his hips and shouted at the ceiling: "Who is playing tricks? Come out!"

The other little treasures also thought that someone was playing tricks and deliberately trying to scare them.

But Erbao's voice echoed for a long time, and no one responded. After the stone wall closed, it stopped moving.

Dabao said calmly, "No matter if someone is playing tricks on us or not, let's get out of here first and go back to find Mommy."

Several little treasures nodded one after another, and even the second treasure became obedient and no longer wanted to think about getting food.

But the next second, the little ones were in trouble.

"But the way back is blocked. What should we do?"

Dabao touched his chin and thought, it was impossible to return the same way, but when he came here, he found that this castle was a matrix. Even if they were in a maze, there must be a way to get out.

So, he turned his head and looked to the other side, pointing with his little hand: "Let's go over there and take a look."

The other little treasures nodded.

Before leaving, Dabao asked everyone to hold hands so that no one would be left alone.

But after walking for a while, the four little treasures suddenly stopped.

Because four different roads appeared before my eyes, and they were exactly the same.

Erbao stood with his hands on his hips, staring at the four identical passages. "Is this shabby castle deliberately trying to make things difficult for us?"

Sanbao said, "Have you noticed that this place is very similar to an escape room? Perhaps the four of us need to take different paths and find four different clues to leave here."

Erbao asked, "Are the four of us going to separate?"

Sibao shook his head like a rattle: "No, I don't want to be separated from you."

"This is a mirror maze!" Sanbao suddenly said, "Every path here is a projection of the same space. The real exit is..."

"Maze?" The other little ones looked at Dabao.

Dabao took a step forward, pointed at his own shadow and said, "Look at my shadow!"

"If there's a noticeable delay or unnaturalness between our movements and those of other mirror images, that direction is the real channel, because the propagation and reflection of light in real space follow certain rules, while fake mirror images don't..."
