Chapter 17: Bones Found, Attack

Upstairs is a sealed room.

It was as if someone had deliberately sealed all the doors and windows with a seal.

The sound of gnawing inside became more and more rapid, and there were faint people talking in it.

But the sound is very weird.

With Li Mu's ear power, he couldn't hear what the people inside were talking about.

Hold the blade tightly in your hand.

Li Mu carefully pried open a seal.

The fire in the room was revealed.

Follow the light.

He cautiously looked in.

I saw that upstairs was a completely sealed building, and in the room, a small fire was raised.

On the fire, a makeshift pole was built with a few branches, and a small pottery stove hung on it.

Scattered around the fire were several people who clearly looked like beggars.

These people gathered together, and none of them spoke.

He just sat on the ground by himself, his arms constantly swinging, and from time to time he grabbed a few pieces of greasy and hairy meat from the pottery stove and stuffed them into his mouth, regardless of the heat.

They all chewed like starving ghosts.

During this period, it was even more strange that there was not even a word.

Living?

Li Mu wasn't quite sure what the state of the group of guys inside was.

But judging by the hair on the piece of meat.

What they were eating should not be the kind of thing Li Mu thought, but an animal more similar to cats and dogs.

If he added the previous scream, he judged that the clay stove was probably cat meat.

But he didn't stop there.

Instead, he looked inside by the light of the fire and judged that this should not be the master's bedroom.

Rather, it's more akin to a kitchen pantry.

So after walking around, I soon noticed that there was a door in a corner.

Pry open with a knife and cautiously push the door open.

The wooden door had long since been corroded, so it took little effort to pry it open.

It opened up silently on its own.

At the same time, the kitchen room, which was covered with dust, was revealed.

The cauldron that fell to the ground, and the porcelain bowl that broke the ground, look like this.

The porcelain bowls here and the porcelain stoves used by those people outside are probably still the same.

It's not pitch black here.

Because there is also a door here in the kitchen, which is right to the pantry.

The wooden door was not opened, but the upper part was mostly corroded.

A lot of fire shone through the broken wooden door.

Let him see more clearly.

The stove was covered with cobwebs, and there was even some mold scattered on the floor, which seemed to be the original scattered food.

Obviously, the crowd outside here rarely walks in.

That's why cobwebs are everywhere.

Why do they close the whole room?

Also, if you're afraid that someone will notice what they're doing here and you'll be driven away.

Why didn't they ban this kitchen as well?

And obviously the kitchen is more spacious, not only that, but the existing stoves, tables and chairs are all here.

There's no reason why they don't choose the kitchen and choose the small, empty pantry.

Or are they afraid to go into the kitchen?

Thinking of this, Li Mu squatted down and began to carefully inspect the marks on the ground.

But it's all dust, and when you touch it, it's all dusty.

made Li Mu very embarrassed.

To be honest, he wants to capture this group of beggars directly, and then let his men come here tomorrow to inspect carefully.

But at this moment, the blood baby on his shoulder seemed to see what he was looking for.

He pointed to the corner of the kitchen.

This is?

Li Mu's eyes moved, and he came to the corner.

Blow away the dust from the floor.

I found out that this was actually the kitchen cellar.

Li Mu grabbed the ring of the cellar and lifted it up fiercely.

Burst!

A rancid smell greeted you.

But fortunately, he had expected it and avoided it in advance.

His movement here clearly alarmed the group of beggars inside, and there was a commotion.

But Li Mu didn't care.

Wait for the rancid smell inside to dissipate.

I got closer and looked down.

Anyway, his body was already exposed, so he simply took out the fire fold a little.

The flames burned rapidly.

The light illuminated the situation in the cellar.

Several bones were buried in it, scattered under the cellar.

A rough count.

There are at least three to five.

Wild dogs and wild cats obviously don't hit every time.

But if on a hungry night.

Someone happened to be passing by at night.

Guess what a group of hungry people would do?

Li Mu's expression was gloomy and about to drip water.

But his heart began to be secretly vigilant.

With Chen Qing's love for Chen Junfeng, how could this abandoned mansion not arouse his vigilance.

At the slightest possibility, this place will be dug into the ground.

So how could the kitchen here, as well as the few corpses hidden in the cellar, not be found?

In his experience, he could tell that something was wrong.

What's more, the gang is a good investigator who relies on this to eat.

Also, the group of beggars outside is not quite right.

Did they have to be cats just now?

Ever since he walked into the ruined mansion, he had felt uncomfortable.

So he walked briskly to the kitchen door that connected to the pantry.

Kick it away with all the force.

Bang!

Li Mu looked at the fire for the first time.

The next moment, his eyes widened instantly.

The fire is gone.

It was empty, empty except for a few scattered wooden shelves.

Not only did there be no sign of fire on the ground.

Even the beggars.

also disappeared without a trace.

It was as if everything he had seen before.

It's just an illusion.

Wrong!

Without any hesitation, Li Mu turned around and was about to flee.

But, at the moment he turned around.

A cold aura came from behind!
