Chapter 1445 Basket

3 meters.

2 meters.

1 meter...

As the distance got closer, Zhu Jie could even see clearly the pattern on the first lady's hijab. Later, something changed. Zhu Jie no longer hesitated. She quickly walked around the first lady, came to her side, and then faced the basket behind the first lady. Reach out.

At this moment, everyone held their breath, but Zhu Jie lived up to expectations and actually opened the lid of the basket.

"It's done!"

Tang Qisheng, who was worried about Zhu Jie, bit his lip in excitement.

As Zhu Jie lowered her head and looked into the basket, her body suddenly paused. Fatty Jiangcheng, who was watching from a distance, felt a thump in his heart. The scene in front of him seemed familiar.

Sure enough, bad luck struck again. Zhu Jie seemed to have pressed the pause button, standing stiffly on the spot, while the first lady walked away as if nothing had happened, her feet never leaving the ground.

From beginning to end, the late Madam did not react to Zhu Jie's behavior.

"Quickly retreat."

Seeing the late madam slowly coming towards him, Jiang Cheng picked up the fat man and quickly evacuated while keeping his body low in the night.

To be precise, their hiding place was not on the trajectory of the late lady's movements, but Zhu Jie's experience sounded the alarm for them. There was something very wrong with the late lady not far away, and even being approached could lead to disaster. .

Moreover, Jiang Cheng suspected that once those who were not summoned were attacked, the consequences they would face were completely different from those of Li Bai and Zhu Jie before. They were pretending to die, but when it was their turn, they would probably die for real.

Everyone watched as the late madam squirmed out of sight and disappeared completely before they dared to emerge from their hiding places. Tang Qisheng was the first to rush to Zhu Jie's side, his eyes turning red.

"Don't touch her yet."

Yao, Shun, Yu, and Zhang Qizheng were relatively close and rushed over faster. The two of them persuaded Tang Qisheng, who was almost desperate.

After Jiang Cheng arrived, Zhu Jie still maintained the posture of lifting the lid, but she went further than Li Bai and at least lifted the lid. The lid was even still in her hand at this moment.

Jiang Cheng didn't dare to touch it. He just squatted down and looked at the cover, and found that it was made of bamboo strips and covered with a layer of gray-brown stains.

"What's going on? She...she is the first lady who approached from the front!"

The seemingly stable Tang Qisheng was already a little hysterical.

After lightly touching Zhu Jie's body, the next second his body suddenly lost support and fell to the ground.

Tang Qisheng shivered and opened Zhu Jie's clothes, only to see that the red rope around his neck was torn off and the copper coin disappeared.

It wasn't until he found out that Zhu Jie still had a pulse that the pale Tang Qisheng regained his senses, "Zhu Jie was hit by opening the lid, so touching the basket is not a taboo, and there is no danger in approaching Madam from in front."

"We have all seen that Madam Xian did not take action, so could the danger have nothing to do with Madam Xian but the backpack behind her?" Lu Qin gave her own opinion.

The fat man swallowed and looked at Zhu Jie on the ground. "Is there something wrong with the basket? But there are hydrangeas in the basket. How could it be..."

"Who said there must be hydrangea in the backpack?" Jiang Cheng asked back.

As soon as these words came out, everyone except Fatty was thoughtful. Shao Tong squatted beside Zhu Jie's "corpse" and grabbed the lid on the ground. The brown stains on the lid were very obvious. He stretched out his fingers. Pick it, then bring it to your nose and sniff it hard.

"It's blood." Shao Tong raised his head and said with certainty.

Hearing this, the fat man slowly opened his eyes. He didn't think about it at all, but when he saw the brown stains that almost covered the entire lid, he could imagine that the entire basket must have been bloody a long time ago.

Bloody... what was in it?

Everyone has seen that basket. It is impossible to hold a whole corpse, but it is perfectly fine to only hold a part, such as a head.

A head... Jiang Cheng has already made a guess in his mind, maybe the basket contains the first lady's head. After all, no one promised them that the first lady's head will be placed in the basket!

As a clue, the disaster girl didn't even mention the basket. Now that I think about it carefully, this is particularly abnormal.

The disaster girl seemed to be hiding something.

And if the head of the late lady is in the basket behind her back, then it is not difficult to guess what is pieced together around the neck of the dead body of the late lady at this moment. It is the clue thing tonight - the hydrangea!

Everyone present is not stupid. Jiang Cheng just made a start, and everyone has already thought of the rest of the guesses. Although they have experienced hundreds of battles, when they think of the terrifying scene of the late Madam at this time, everyone still can't help but feel a surge of fear from under their feet. of chill.

With a broken body holding a hydrangea on its head, no one dared to think about what happened to the late Madam before she died.

For the time being, these are just speculations, but it is very simple to confirm, as long as someone lifts the first lady's hijab.

Suddenly, for a moment, the fat man desperately hoped that the next person would not have his turn, nor would it be the turn of the doctor and Yao, Shun, and Yu to lift the ghost's head. Among the people he knew, only the doctor was lucky enough to survive such an irritating experience. Therefore, she was followed by the ghost bride Wu Yingying.

"Lifting the Madam's hijab is too..." Zhang Qizheng is a cautious person. Just think about it and you will know that this kind of thing is unreliable.

"Why do you need to lift the hijab?" Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at Zhang Qizheng with a puzzled expression. "We only need to determine whether it is a human head or a hydrangea under the hijab. I think the feel of these two things should be completely different. We can separate the hijab Touch the cloth."

Although touching the ghost's head sounds very unreliable, compared with lifting the ghost's veil, the former is barely acceptable.

"Brother Jiang said only one way. If you think this is too dangerous, there is a second way." Yao Shunyu has sorted out his thoughts. He looked at Zhu Jie who was motionless on the ground, "Everyone has seen that the lid of the basket has been taken off and is now here, so if you have a chance, you can choose to get close to the basket to take a look, but I personally don't recommend this. After all, Li Bai and Zhu Jie were both infected after touching the basket."

Yao Shunyu's words are not difficult to understand. If you get close and just meet the sight of the head of the first lady, then the consequences can be imagined.

Like Li Bai in the past, Zhu Jie, lying on the ground, also closed his eyes tightly, and the pupils under his eyelids kept trembling, as if he was trapped in a dream that he couldn't wake up from.

Jiang Cheng's heart suddenly twitched, and he subconsciously took out his mobile phone. The screen of the mobile phone showed the surveillance video. Li Bai, the first person to be infected in the video, was lying quietly on the ground at this moment.

Although there seemed nothing unusual at first glance, Jiang Cheng decided to go to Li Bai for a check out out of caution.
