Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1470 Accident
He opened his mouth wide, his lips were trembling, the fat man was so frightened that he couldn't say a word, he didn't understand why Grandpa Ghost didn't kill him, but took away the guiding sign.

There was a piercing sound in a trance, and the fat man turned around immediately. It was the sound of gongs, the sound of gongs from the village!
The sound of the gong sounded one after another, and the ground trembled, cracks gradually appeared in the surrounding scene, and finally shattered like a mirror under the terrified eyes of the fat man. In the next second, a face appeared in front of his eyes.

"you're awake!"

Seeing the doctor's face, the fat man's first reaction was not to feel relieved, but to back away immediately until he could see the scene around him clearly.

This is still the same thatched house, except for Shao Tong guarding the door, the doctor and Li Bai are by his side. At this moment, he is lying on the bed with a wet cloth covering his forehead.

The fat man wanted to open his mouth to speak, but his throat was so dry that he could only make a sound of "Ah... ah...", Li Bai thoughtfully fetched a water bag and fed it to him.

Seeing that the fat man was fine, Jiang Cheng heaved a sigh of relief, and the worry on his brows gradually melted away, "What's wrong with you? You can't wake up even if you scream."

Through communication, the fat man gradually understood what happened during this period. The first half of the night was safe and sound for the doctor and Shao Tongshou, but when he changed shifts, he suddenly found that he couldn't wake up. No, everyone realized something was wrong.

After regaining his composure, Fatty told what happened last night, but because his train of thought was rather chaotic, everyone could get a rough idea.

"How do you know that the figure outside the window is Grandpa? You have never seen him before." Li Bai asked the first question.

"It's a cough... I heard it very clearly, it was exactly the same as what we heard yesterday when we first came here. Also, I looked out through the crack of the window, and there was a haggard figure outside, an old man, and there was a moon in the sky at that time , the moonlight is very good, I can see clearly."

After listening to the fat man's explanation, Jiang Cheng walked over to the closed window and squatted down. After a while, he stretched out his hand to call the fat man over. He didn't realize that something was wrong until the fat man also squatted in his position.

The window seams have been sealed long ago, and there is no way to see the outside.

"Also, there was no moon last night, and there was almost no light in the village. It is impossible to cast shadows on the window paper, and the stove in the room has not been extinguished."

"Let's use a dream to describe it. In that dream, there were too many unreasonable things. I'm afraid you were able to come back alive thanks to the sound of the gong."

The fat man was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why, you also heard the sound of the gong?"

"Well, you woke up shortly after the sound of the gong." Li Bai raised his head and looked towards the direction of the village. "The sound of the gong came from that direction."

"By the way, that sign!" The fat man suddenly realized, and touched the wooden sign on his chest through his clothes. This is a guiding sign given by the Hou Mansion, and it is very meaningful. Fortunately, the wooden sign was not lost.

The fat man exhaled, wiped the cold sweat off his face with a damp cloth, and finally relaxed. It seemed that the dream was not so weird as to distort reality, which was what he was most worried about.

"Take out the sign," Jiang Cheng said.

Fatty unbuttoned his clothes and took out the brand from the innermost pocket, but the moment he got the brand in his hand, Fatty realized something was wrong, the brand was still the same brand, but the touch...why is it a bit sticky?
At the same time, a bit of stench, a strange smell mixed with blood spread, irritating everyone's nasal cavity.

is blood!

Look carefully, there is actually a bloody handprint printed on the dark wooden sign!

"There's blood, and there's a smell of rotting corpses." Jiang Cheng said without changing his expression. He rubbed the sign with his hands, "There's still some mud on it."

Compared with Jiang Cheng's attitude towards this kind of scene, Fatty was speechless for a while. The scene of last night was broken and reorganized in his mind, making him unable to tell whether it was fantasy or reality for a while.

"Ah...! Ahhh...!"

A woman's scream came from next door, followed by a cry.

"Grandpa! Grandpa!"

Hearing the sound of the gong meant that the night had receded. Jiang Cheng wrapped the wooden sign in a cloth and put it back on himself, "Let's go and see."

Hearing the cries, Yao, Shunyu and others also came out of the room. As soon as everyone came to the door of the house of the woman and grandpa, the door was opened, and the tear-stained woman stumbled out of it, and she became dazed. Woke up and fell into great grief, "Grandpa...Grandpa is dead!"

"died?"

"I woke up this morning when I heard the sound of the gong. Seeing that Grandpa was still sleeping, I didn't bother him. But just now... I was about to wake Grandpa up for breakfast, only then did I realize that..." The woman was full With tears on her face, she couldn't control her emotions, and looked very pitiful.

Jiang Cheng looked in through the opened door, and saw a person lying on a dilapidated kang, wrapped tightly in a quilt, with no face visible.

"Please take care of Grandpa for me, I... I'm going to find people in the village to help with Grandpa's funeral, please."

The woman's sadness didn't look like it was staged, and more importantly, she didn't give people like Jiangcheng a chance to refuse. After saying this, the woman stumbled away, looking from the back as if she had lost her soul.

After the woman left, the small courtyard fell into silence. Everyone looked at the figure on the kang, to be precise, it was a figure wrapped in a quilt. The scene was a little weird.

Jiangcheng succinctly told Yao, Shunyu and the others what happened to the fat man last night. At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel a little guilty, worried that what was hidden under the quilt was not a corpse, but a ghost.

Shao Tong volunteered to step forward, which was exactly what he wanted, and the quilt was lifted a little bit, revealing an old face.

The old man didn't walk peacefully, his face was distorted, even a little out of shape, his eyes were not completely closed, his mouth was open, as if he wanted to say something, the fat man immediately recognized that this was the grandpa he saw last night.

Jiang Cheng pulled out Grandpa's two hands, compared them, and then took out the signboard in his arms. It was confirmed by both, that the bloody handprint on the signboard and his left hand fit perfectly.

Now everyone is convinced that the fat man's dream last night has something to do with Grandpa.

Li Bai opened Grandpa's eyelids, then stretched out his hand to check the old man's body temperature, lifted the corpse to check, and made a judgment after a while, "The pupils are dilated. Judging from the temperature and other signs, the person should have died not long ago, about 4 , 5 hours, the back and other sunken parts have appeared corpse spots."

"According to this time calculation, when we first arrived yesterday, the grandfather was indeed not dead, and the coughing sound we heard was also from him." Zhu Jie analyzed.

"It looks like this from the body." Li Bai nodded.
