Chapter 1458 Death, Disembowelment
“He killed that woman,” Hong Wenli muttered to himself.
Lin Shanshan patted her chest with a sigh of relief, "Luckily we ran fast, otherwise we would be the ones who died."
“The bald man doesn’t seem to intend to kill us,” Chen Mu said, looking at Xiao Ye. “Tell me what happened in your living room after we left.”
Lin Shanshan also looked over curiously, wanting to know what had happened at the dining table.
Chen Mu and his group weren't stupid either; although they were talking, they didn't stop walking.
The four players quickly headed towards the village entrance along the path they had come from, to avoid being chased by the bald man.
Along the way, Xiaoye quickly recounted the situation in the living room.
Not long after Chen Mu and his companion left, nothing immediately changed at the dining table.
Xiaoye and Hongwenli were still with the bald man.
The bald man also urged the two to eat meat, praising how delicious the meat he had cooked was.
However, compared to Hong Wenli's previous agreement, after going to the toilet, no matter how much the bald man tried to persuade him, Hong Wenli refused to eat a single bite of "steak".
The bald man was somewhat disappointed, but he didn't get angry.
He was still chatting casually with Xiaoye.
According to the bald man, he raises cattle and slaughters them fresh to ensure such a tender texture.
At this point, the bald man sighed, "Cows are hard to raise. You have to feed and care for them every day, and keep an eye on them from time to time."
If you're not careful, the cows can disappear without a trace, and you'll never know where they've gone.
One of my cows ran away and disappeared; I don't know where it is, and I still can't find it.
The bald man sighed when the matter was brought up.
Xiaoye didn't know how to respond, so he could only drink his red wine to hide his embarrassment.
As for Hong Wenli, he dared not respond. He knew what "cow" referred to, and feared that if he said something wrong, he would be seen as a "cow" himself.
The three sat for a while longer. After the bald man finished his steak, he suddenly stood up and wanted to leave the table.
Xiaoye and Hongwenli immediately tensed up.
Xiaoye tried to stop him, worried that the bald man might go to the cellar at that moment.
However, the bald man did not go to the kitchen.
Instead, he walked towards the yard, muttering, "Let's go look for it, maybe we can find that cow."
As the bald man spoke, he pushed open the living room door and stepped into the cold, windswept courtyard.
After the bald man left, he closed the living room door behind him.
Xiaoye breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the bald man didn't go to the cellar, things would be fine.
The entrance to the cellar is in the kitchen; you can keep an eye on the kitchen yourself.
However, a dozen seconds later, Xiaoye reacted quickly and suddenly realized a problem.
The players are all new to the area and unfamiliar with the environment. Who can guarantee that there's only one entrance to the cellar?
What if there's another entrance that leads to the cellar?
The moment this thought popped into Xiaoye's head, she broke out in a cold sweat.
He immediately got up and went to the courtyard.
Hong Wenli didn't know why Xiaoye was so nervous, but he felt a chill down his spine when he was alone in the living room.
So Hong Wenli followed, and the two of them went into the courtyard together.
The bald man was nowhere to be seen in the cold courtyard! The gate to the courtyard was also locked, so it seemed that the bald man had not gone out.
Xiaoye's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself, "Oh no."
Hong Wenli's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Thanks to Xiaoye's sharp eyes, he quickly noticed that a pile of straw in the corner of the yard had been disturbed.
The bald man most likely went into the pile of straw.
Led by Xiaoye, the two quickly went to the straw and began to search through it.
A few seconds later, Xiaoye discovered the passage hidden in the straw.
Xiaoye wanted to go down, but Hongwenli didn't have Xiaoye's courage and didn't dare to go down, so he only dared to wait at the cave entrance.
So Xiaoye quickly slipped into the passage. He followed the passage to a corner of the cellar.
At that moment, in the dim light of the passage, Xiaoye saw the figure of the bald man standing behind Chen Mu.
Seeing the urgency of the situation, Xiao Ye had no choice but to loudly remind Chen Mu.
This was the shout that Chen Mu heard from Xiao Ye.
At this point, everything that happened in the living room has been revealed.
Chen Mu finally understood why the bald man had appeared silently behind them, and why Xiao Ye hadn't appeared beforehand.
Chen Mu patted Xiao Ye on the shoulder, thinking that Xiao Ye's performance was quite good.
They were so perceptive in noticing something was wrong, acted quickly, and even had the courage to crawl into the passage.
From any perspective, Xiaoye's performance was flawless.
Lin Shanshan was still a little scared. "Luckily nothing happened. That bald guy was terrifying. Fortunately, he wasn't targeting us."
Chen Mu analyzed, "Looking back, it seems that the bald man never intended to kill us from beginning to end."
The "lost cow" he mentioned should, without a doubt, be the woman who received the package.
We had just found the woman who wanted the package when the bald man appeared behind us.
From this perspective, it seems the bald man is using us.
He couldn't seem to find the recipient's location, so he relied on us to find her, and then he attacked her.
Listening to Chen Mu's analysis, Lin Shanshan said, "Alright, why bother thinking about it so much?"
We survived after all. This bizarre mission was incredibly difficult, but thankfully we won.
As Lin Shanshan said this, the players had already reached the village exit.
Chen Mu glanced back; the bald man hadn't followed. But from the direction of the cabin, he could still faintly hear the faint screams.
Just then, Lin Shanshan suddenly felt a slight discomfort in her stomach.
"Wait for me a moment, my stomach... hurts a little."
Lin Shanshan said to Chen Mu and the others.
Chen Mu and his group immediately stopped in their tracks, and Hong Wenli couldn't help but say:
"Oh no, could the steak I just ate have been poisoned? I ate quite a bit, should I throw up?"
Lin Shanshan clutched her stomach, her face growing increasingly contorted in pain. "It's not that kind of pain. It's...it's...the feeling of being cut with a knife."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mu and Xiao Ye exchanged a glance. Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition welled up from the bottom of his heart.
The "Death Postman" is probably not that simple.
Lin Shanshan's expression began to look increasingly distressed.
Her face was contorted with extreme pain.
With a "rip" sound, Lin Shanshan's clothes were torn open.
No, to be precise, it was cut open from the abdomen by something sharp.
However, what was revealed after the clothes were torn was not Lin Shanshan's stomach.
What appeared before the players was blood-red entrails!
