Nightmare Attack

Chapter 327 The Truth
Moreover, along with this weird strangeness, there is also a gradual surge of fear from the bottom of my heart.

But what puzzled the fat man was that he couldn't find the source of this fear at all. He looked past the middle-aged woman and the young maid, staring at the scarlet door.

Unconsciously exerting force with his right hand, the Roujiamo that he was holding carefully in his hand was squeezed, and the thick soup flowed onto his hand, sticky.

Just when he seemed to think of something, the voice inside stopped.

The fat man wakes up like a dream.

Before he knew it, cold sweat had soaked his costume, he was panting heavily, and the ominous premonition in his heart intensified.

At this moment--

"Squeak-"

The door shook slightly, first there was an inconspicuous gap, and then it opened suddenly.

After seeing the scene inside the door clearly, the fat man's tense expression froze immediately, and after a while, there was a buzzing sound in his head.

In the yard, a thin figure curled up, lying on the open space under the steps, the worn clothes on the back were already stained red with blood.

Face down, motionless.

"There are rules in the mansion." The middle-aged woman said with a sly voice, "Anyone who dares to steal in the mansion will be caught like this." She stared at the few people in front of her, and said with a sneer: "No one is an exception. .”

Jiang Cheng immediately went to pull the fat man, but the fat man broke away. He staggered and ran over, and knelt down beside the little beggar. With trembling hands, he lifted the little beggar's head.

Gently touching the little beggar's face, as if to wipe off the blood stains on her face, but the more and more blood stains were rubbed off, until the hands were covered with blood.

He was still rubbing, as if possessed.

"Wake up." The fat man's lips were trembling, "I brought you a meat bun, specially for you, it's delicious." He stuffed the bun with more than half of the meat into the little beggar's mouth. hand, but her fingers had no strength at all, and the Roujiamo fell to the ground with a "slap".

He immediately picked it up and stuffed it into her arms forcefully, "Don't do this." The fat man said in a begging tone, "Open your eyes and look at me, please, please."

"Brother Fat." Chen Qiang came over, trying to help him up, but was thrown away by the fat man, and Chen Qiang retreated several steps before stabilizing his body.

"Fatty." Jiang Cheng said.

The moment he heard the doctor's voice, the fat man immediately raised his head, his eyes became bright again, "Doctor." The fat man seemed to think of something suddenly, and said anxiously: "Doctor, you are a doctor, you can save her, you can save her Right? Doctor, save her! Save her!"

When he saw the little beggar, Jiang Cheng knew that she was hopeless. Her body had already cooled down, so it was obvious that she hadn't just died.

She has been dead for some time.

The beating just now should have been just a play for them.

"Fatty." Facing the red and swollen eyes of the fat man, the rest of Jiang Cheng's words got stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.

"She's dead." Xia Meng said simply.

"You're lying!" the fat man said excitedly, "she's not dead yet, she's still alive, there's a doctor here, she won't die, she won't"

"She's still a child, she's still young, and she hasn't eaten the roujiamo yet. I prepared the roujiamo for her." When he said this, the fat man suddenly choked up, and he hugged the little beggar's body tightly, Viscous blood stained his skirt red.

Bean-sized teardrops rolled down and dripped on the little beggar's face and the ground. Hearing the fat man's howl, Xia Meng also shut his mouth.

"The mansion never tolerates traitors, let alone eating inside and out." On the steps, a big man with a fierce look stood upright, leaning on a thick wooden stick in his hand, looking at Jiang Cheng and the others, sneered : "Whoever dares to act presumptuously in the Yellow Mansion, this bastard will end up with him."

The middle-aged woman who followed in also stepped forward and said in a chime, "Steward Zhou said that we will drag her out to feed the dogs in a while, so that everyone will know that we have offended our Huangfu."

"I think you dare!" The fat man stood up immediately, and his eyes turned red when he saw the wooden stick in the man's hand on the steps.

"Stop him!"

Chen Qiang was the closest to him, and he went up and hugged the fat man's body. Jiang Cheng was the second. He pressed the fat man's shoulder hard, but at the moment, neither of them could hold him down.

The fat man who got angry was like a humanoid tank, and Chen Qiang was completely dragged away by him.

The man on the steps showed a smile after he had succeeded in his scheme, and he didn't even need to greet him. Outside the door and on the steps, another 6 or 7 people ran out.

There are men and women, but without exception, they all have fierce eyes, and they all carry short sticks in their hands, or carry spears with polished ends upside down, all of them are Lianjiazi,
Xia Meng immediately understood that this was the aggressive method, and it was a trap set by housekeeper Zhou.

Presumably they also figured out the identity of the little beggar, and the reason why they treated her like this was to force people like themselves to act first.

If it drags on, then people like myself will collect all the clues and end this mission.

But limited by the rules, Steward Zhou and his party couldn't take the initiative to attack, so they came up with such a dirty trick.

In front of them, beat the little beggar to death.

Force them to do it first.

Thinking of this, Xia Meng no longer hesitated, she raised her hand, and slapped the fat man's neck with a palm, trying to knock him unconscious.

But to her surprise, the fat man's muscles bulged, as strong as a mad bull in a bullring. She struck twice, as if he had hit a tree.

In the end, Jiang Cheng raised his arm and hit the fat man on the neck with his elbow, and he staggered down. Even so, those blood-red eyes were still staring at the man on the steps.

Until finally passed out.

When he woke up again, he was already lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, without saying a word.

Jiang Cheng sat beside his bed, and Chen Qiang sat at a table a little further away.

The silence in the room was eerie.

It's getting dark outside, it's almost dark.

"What about her?" Fatty's voice was hoarse.

"We finally took her body away." Jiang Cheng said calmly, "I buried it by the lake in the afternoon when no one was around." He paused, looked at the fat man and said, "Don't worry."

Hearing that Fatty's eyes moved a little bit, but his face and neck did not, his eyes finally focused on Jiang Cheng's face, and after a while——

"Doctor." After a pause, he said, "You're not telling the truth."

Jiang Cheng raised his eyes and said nothing.

"People like you wouldn't take the risk to snatch a corpse." The fat man said softly, "Because it's meaningless."

"If she is still alive, you will save her, because you can dig clues from her." The fat man looked away, "But she is dead, she is worthless, and now she is just a person who will bring you danger." burden."
