Chapter 584 House Gate
A weak heartbeat stirred Chen Qiang's nerves. He did not expect that Pandu, who was no different from the dead, was actually still alive.
What’s even more bizarre is that Pandu’s eyeballs suddenly twitched.
"Although he still has a heartbeat, he is unconscious." Linghu Yong spoke, looked at him and said, "There is no response to external stimulation."
"This is me You know, I worked as a nurse before." The fat man stared at Pandu on the bed, swallowed nervously and said, "To put it bluntly, he is a vegetable."
"But the body temperature of a vegetative person is not as low as his." Jiang Cheng retracted his hand. He could feel the obvious difference from his own by simply touching Pandu's body.
Based on Jiang Cheng’s experience, Pandu’s body temperature seemed to be just a few hours after death. Although there was still residual body temperature, it was already much lower than that of ordinary people.
“And here.” Jiang Cheng lifted Pandu’s clothes, and everyone could clearly see that purple-red patches had appeared on the latter’s skin.
"There are no corpse spots on living people." He continued.
"Then is he alive or dead now?" the fat man asked.
Before Jiang Cheng could speak, a plain voice sounded, "His body is dead, but his spirit is trapped in another place."
The person who spoke was a man named Luo He. Is it an illusion or something, when the sound sounded, everyone felt like they suddenly settled down.
"So... he is still dead?" Pi Ruan seemed to have the same question as Fatty, and was very dissatisfied with Luo He's attitude in playing riddles.
“I don’t know.” Luo He looked up at Pi Ruan, “But I think it depends on how long it takes us to solve this supernatural incident.”
“If we are faster, he The body is not rotten, and there may be a chance to survive.”
Luo He's attitude gives people an unpredictable feeling, but what everyone can clearly feel is his disregard for life.
That's right. Pandu was just a stranger to him anyway. They only met at a fixed time and had no intersection with each other.
No one bothered about his attitude in speaking. What everyone cared about was whether what he said was the truth.
Zhao Xingguo thought for a moment and nodded, "Mr. Luo is right. Pandu was in the room with us last night. If there is a ghost attack, there is no reason to attack him alone."
"He was attacked with a purpose by ghosts. As for the reason," he paused and suddenly looked in one direction, "I think it should be at the altar."
The first scene they came into contact with that was attacked by ghosts was the altar set up by the Taoist priest Tianshi, and the Taoist priest's body was also there at that time.
"Did we move something in the altar that shouldn't be moved and anger the ghost?" Pi Ruan asked in a low voice, while casting his gaze towards Jiangcheng.
Jiang Cheng was thinking about the connection. In response to Pi Ruan's request for help, he just said perfunctorily: "You can think of it this way."
It was dawn, and there was no point in just shrinking in the room and thinking. , they are going out to find clues.
As for Pandu, everyone thought that he could just stay in the room. Since the ghost didn't kill him on the spot, there was little possibility of settling the scores in the future.
In other words, he will remain like this until the end of this supernatural incident.
Not long after leaving the building, everyone walked along the corridor and found a place similar to a canteen. Liu Laizi took them through this place before, and everyone had an impression.
The black wooden door was open, and there was a long table and several wooden stools inside, enough to accommodate a dozen people eating at the same time.
The dining hall is dark inside and the decoration is very simple. The tables and the floor have stains accumulated over the years.
Some of them looked like blood stains had dried on them, while others looked like they were moldy.
This is obviously not a place where the Feng family eats, but more like a canteen for the servants.
At this moment, a black pot was placed on the long table, and many dishes and chopsticks were placed crookedly along the table.
Before they could get closer to observe, they heard a strange sound of footsteps coming from deep in the dining hall. Then, a dark curtain was opened, and a figure walking out with a cane. .
"You are here just in time, sit down and eat." Liu Laizi greeted: "You can eat the porridge we made in the morning alive."
He took the initiative to lift the lid of the pot and ate it. A strong aroma spread instantly, and the whole room was filled with this alluring aroma.
"It smells so good!" Someone couldn't help but swallowed and praised.
“Damn it, what smells so good?” Pi Ruan stared at the black pot with his eyes fixed on it. He had not eaten anything since he came to this world.
What’s even more pitiful is that he didn’t eat anything before entering this world.
But the fat man seemed to have figured out the way. His thick eyebrows wrinkled and he said in a doubtful tone: "It seems... It tastes like snake meat soup, but it is too fragrant."
Hearing this, Fu Fu curled her lips and said, "Now that you've come, take care of yourself. I'm hungry anyway, so you can do what you want."
After saying that, she was the first to walk over and sit down. Liu Laizi immediately filled a bowl of porridge for her and looked at her with a wrinkled face.
Luo He was the second to walk up. It could be seen that Zhao Xingguo intended to dissuade him, but under Liu Laizi's gaze, he was still half a beat slow.
“She’s right, you’ll be safe once you’ve come.” Jiang Cheng said, “If you intend to poison yourself, it will be difficult to avoid it.”
With Jiang Cheng, the rest of the people can He walked up reluctantly, but this attitude disappeared after taking the first bite of snake meat soup.
It smells so good.
Several people quickly drank up the full pot of snake meat soup. In the end, Pi Ruan occupied the pot and scraped the bottom of the pot repeatedly with a spoon.
It’s hard to imagine what kind of delicious food would be worthy of doing such a thing for a person of his status.
“I’m full.” Fu Fu wiped her mouth with satisfaction and showed a weird smile.
Jiang Cheng swallowed the last bite of rice in his mouth, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said to Liu Laizi who was clearing the table: "We want to walk around Feng Mansion today. Is there anything we need to pay attention to?"
"The situation around here is not peaceful." Liu Laizi said with one eye open, "Everyone in the town knows what happened in the house. If you must go out for a walk, then remember not to say that you are from Feng "
"Also." Liu Laizi's tone suddenly became tougher, and his whole aura changed accordingly. The back he was originally carrying seemed to be much straighter. He stared at Jiang Cheng's face and said solemnly: "Remember that you must be sure before dark I have to come back.”
“Do you have any explanation?” Pi Ruan asked weakly when no one answered.
"As soon as it gets dark, the door of the mansion is closed. No matter who calls the door, it will not be opened." Liu Laizi looked at Pi Ruan and said sadly: "No one can open the door of Feng's mansion at night. ."(End of this chapter)
