Chapter 94 - Coffins in a Small Building
I avoided Sister Qiao's blade, but I was stunned by what I saw in front of me.
Two of her fingers had pierced deep into the mantis face's eye sockets.
What was even more shocking was that the 'mantis face' let out a shrill scream, turned into a cloud of black smoke, and floated out.
Ghosts were corporeal and could kill people by relying on the transformation of resentment. It wasn't too hard to destroy a ghost's soul, but it was unheard-of to cripple a ghost like this.
Sister Qiao could actually cripple the eyes of a mantis with her bare hands!
Mantis' face was already a ghost. Even if it could be reincarnated, his eyes, which had one of his five senses destroyed, could only remain blind for generations to come.
[What kind of evil art is this? To actually have such a heaven defying ability …]
The first thing I did was knock out the fatty who had the strongest battle prowess. Taoist Cui was also bitten to an important point, so the situation immediately reversed.
Sister Qiao only relied on a bit of force, seeing that the situation wasn't good, she turned her head and slashed at me, then ran out. Taoist Cui fled in panic.
Dou Dabao and I rushed to the door. Seeing the two of them running into the rain, I pulled Dou Dabao away and told him not to chase after a desperate situation.
It turns out that I was right.
When the two of them returned to the house, they saw that the fatty who had just been knocked unconscious had already woken up. He was actually riding on the mute woman's back, his hands tightly grabbing onto her neck.
The woman was like a weak rabbit being held down by a big fat jackal. She had no room to struggle and could only open her mouth to die.
I swung the iron rod at it.
When Fatty heard the commotion, he raised his hand to block and the sound of bones breaking was heard.
He jumped to his feet and tried to step on the woman's neck, as if he wanted to kill her.
Angry, I rushed forward and hit him hard on the knee.
The fatty let out a miserable scream. He wanted to escape, but he was kicked down to the ground by Dou Dabao after a few times.
I pulled the mute woman up, and saw that Dou Dabao was still holding onto the pig knife, and was still violently kicking the fatty.
"Bastard, why do you have to kill a woman?!" Dou Dabao was truly furious.
I suppressed my anger and said, "He's trying to silence us."
"F * ck!" Dou Dabao then kicked the fatty twice.
The fatty cried out in pain, "Aiyo …" You. You guys are not the Public Security! "
"F * ck you, if I was a public security officer, I would have killed you with one shot!" Dou Dabao said with red eyes.
I coldly looked at the fatty. "Did you let the dead dogs go?"
The fatty looked at the pig knife in Dou Dabao's hand and nodded with difficulty.
"How many of you are there?"
"Four, no. It's just the three of us right now. " The fatty seemed to have thought of something and he looked towards the door, shivering visibly.
Dou Dabao stared and asked: "Are you really traffickers?"
Fatty lowered his head and did not speak. This was equivalent to tacit approval.
Dou Dabao kicked him again, pointed at the mute girl and asked loudly: "Other than her, do you guys have anyone else to kidnap and sell?"
Fatty shook his head, "No …" "No, just this one."
"Bullshit!" I pointed to the door. "Didn't you kill that guy in the water tank in the courtyard?"
I just found out that the woman who almost pulled me into the vat died not long ago.
Now it seemed that this group of heartless bastards had used this abandoned house as their hiding place for the abducted woman. The female corpses in the water vat across the yard were most likely the culprits they had committed.
The fatty's face was ashen, but he still argued that he didn't kill the woman, but rather drowned himself in the vat. He even said that he was just a small fry, and that Old Cui and Sister Qiao were the main culprits.
"Cut the f * cking bullshit, where's Pan Ying?" Dou Dabao asked harshly.
Fatty was stunned for a moment before reacting. He rolled his eyes and said, "She's locked up in the cellar in front. I'll take you guys to find her."
Dou Dabao and I looked at each other and nodded.
Although it was obvious that the fatty had evil intentions, the first thing he wanted to do now was to find Pan Ying, and he couldn't think of anything else.
The fatty crawled up, and was pushed out of the room by Dou Dabao with his blade.
Just as he walked out of the door, he suddenly changed his unsteady posture and rushed into the rain.
Just as Dou Dabao was about to give chase, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from the bushes beside the fatty's feet.
Fatty threw himself onto the ground. When he saw what was happening, he immediately let out a hysterical scream.
No matter how much he struggled, he couldn't get rid of that pair of skinny hands. Like a dying jackal, he was dragged into the depths of the grass bit by bit.
Dou Dabao and I rushed there and were shocked to discover that there was actually another large water jar inside the grass.
Those hands came out of the vat.
Other than his hands, a human head could also be seen in the water.
This person's closed eyes continuously emitted black blood, and his triangular face looked extremely malevolent … It was precisely the mantis' face that Dou Dabao and I saw just now.
"Save me! Save me... "I don't want to die …" The fatty plopped the ground as he wailed for help from Dou Dabao and I.
Dou Dabao swallowed his saliva, "That triangular face seems to be called San'er, it's one of their group … He was faking his corpse. Should we save them... "
"Nope." I said coldly, "I'm just an intern. I don't have a duty to save others. Let them bite."
Seeing the fatty being dragged into the water vat, churning for a while, and not moving at all after sinking, Dou Dabao suddenly turned to me and asked, "Then what about Pan Ying? "Where is the cellar?"
I thought for a bit, then raised my eyes to look at the small building to the left, "Go and look for Di Jinlian first."
The Di Family Mansion was too big, the sky was getting dark, it was not wise to blindly find some cellar. Moreover, what Fatty said might not be the truth.
I have a feeling that as long as I can find Di Jinlian, many of my questions will be answered.
I let Dou Dabao take care of the mute girl, then we three and a dog ran towards the small building.
Downstairs, I looked through the window into a room.
With just a glance, he felt a burst of fear in his heart.
The tables and chairs in the room were perfectly preserved, but there was a black coffin in the corner!
Dou Dabao looked inside, and subconsciously lowered his voice:
"This mansion is really too strange. Why is there a coffin here, and the coffin lid is still closed …" There won't be any more dead people inside, will there? "
"Don't scare yourself. Go in, go upstairs and take a look."
That is true, but as I enter the door, I feel a chill down my spine.
There were two rooms on the first floor, and the staircase was in the outer room. What he had seen through the window was the inner room.
According to Di Jinlian, this was the embroidery before she left the pavilion.
According to the layout, the inner room on the first floor should be the maid's room.
Whose family would leave their coffins in the backyard. Below the Miss's Embroidery Building... In the maid's bedroom?
Furthermore, judging by the position, it should be … It was the position of the bed!
I shivered at this sudden thought.
I shook my head. I was just scaring myself. Who would use a coffin as a bed?
"Hey, what's wrong with you? "Don't scare me!"
Hearing Dou Dabao's exclamation, I immediately turned my head, only to see the mute girl lying in his embrace. Her eyes were tightly shut, and her face was ashen white.
I hurried over and examined her. I couldn't help but sigh. "She was abused, malnourished, and she was too frightened. "Settle the matter here as soon as possible and take her to the hospital."
"What do we do now?"
"You stay here and take care of her. I'll go up and take a look myself."
Dou Dabao nodded his head: "Be careful."
The meat floss started to follow me upstairs, but I looked out the door and motioned for it to stay downstairs.
Taoist Cui and Sister Qiao were both extremely vicious and if in the event of being found, it could also issue a warning downstairs.
I carried the iron rod that I had snatched up and followed the wooden stairs to the second floor.
There were two rooms in the same room. The living room was not big, but it had a quaint look to it.
Looking at the furniture with the characteristics of the times, it gives a feeling of spacetime dislocation.
Taoist Cui was right about at least two things.
The identity of the Di Family was very mysterious. Ordinary people would never build such a mansion in the mountains.
After the death of the Di Family people, the house had indeed become strange … Or it could be said that Di Family's mansion had always been strange.
Looking at the furnishings in the room, it seemed that no outsider had come before.
It had been almost a century, how could everything here be preserved so well?
I picked up a vase from the shelf, looked at it, and put it back.
He saw that the door to the inner room was ajar. He walked up and gently pushed the door with his hand.
My scalp tingled when I saw what was going on in the room.
Whether it was the layout or the furnishings in the room, this should be the women's room.
However, there was a black coffin in the middle of the room.
The coffin was almost twice the size of the one downstairs, so even though it was open, I couldn't see what was inside.
I looked around, took two deep breaths, and walked slowly to the coffin.
I gasped at the sight of the coffin.
Inside lay a woman in a sleeveless green gown embroidered with gold flowers.
Her skintight qipao perfectly revealed her beautiful curves … The woman's face was calm and peaceful …
This girl is actually the Pan Ying we are looking for!
"Pan Ying! Pan Ying! "
I called her name and reached into the coffin to get her breath.
Feeling a warm breath, I let out a breath.
Unconsciously, he raised his eyes and saw that there was a pillow beside her. On the pillow, there was a set of moon-white clothes.
One coffin, two pillows …
As he thought about the coffin downstairs, the strange feeling became stronger.
No one would leave the coffin on the second floor.
This coffin was used as a bed!
I pinched the space between my eyebrows hard, wanting to pull Pan Ying out from the coffin.
Suddenly, I felt a pair of eyes watching me from the doorway.
I jerked my head up and looked at the door.
He wasn't sure if he had used too much strength, but he felt his mind go blank.
There was no one outside.
Did I overthink things?
When I thought about how Dou Dabao was still downstairs, I was a little worried. Seeing that Pan Ying was fine for the time being, I hastily left the bedroom.
Arriving at the staircase, I was about to ask if there was anything wrong downstairs.
Suddenly, he heard a woman's laughter coming from downstairs.
