Chapter 971

"Who is managing this manor now?" Miao Qing suddenly asked.

The mayor turned his head and looked at Miao Qing with an incomprehensible expression, "Sir, don't be joking. The Dacorossa Manor has been abandoned for many years. It is a cursed land. If you must say that it has

Manager, then it’s Halson, and the ghosts at his mercy!”

Jiang Cheng understood what Miao Qing meant. They had seen a man dressed as a butler in the manor.

Jiang Cheng asked for paper and pen, and drew the butler's appearance from memory. Before he could finish the drawing, the mayor's expression suddenly changed, "It's him! He's Harsen, how could you..."

The mayor suddenly paused. The next second, his pupils narrowed when he looked at Jiang Cheng, as if he realized something terrible, "You...you saw him?!"

"We have all seen it." Jiang Cheng said truthfully.

The mayor's face suddenly twitched.

"Mayor, if you have anything to say, just say it." Huaiyi was frightened by the mayor's actions, especially the way the mayor looked at them now, as if he was looking at a dead person.

"I've heard rumors that anyone with his face will be taken away by him, through that door, to a room that doesn't exist at all." The fear on the mayor's face was even worse at this moment, and he didn't even dare to speak directly.

Halson's name.

"But Mayor, you've seen him too, haven't you?" the fat man asked thoughtfully.

The mayor's face suddenly changed, and he said nervously to the fat man: "You fat boy, don't talk nonsense, I was... I am in a different situation from you. I saw him when he was alive, not when he was dead.

back!"

The mayor seemed to think this point was very important, and kept explaining to them for a long time. He probably meant that his situation was fundamentally different from that of Jiang Cheng's group.

"Remember, no matter what, don't let him come to your door, otherwise no one can save you." The mayor's expression was very serious when he said this. He raised his voice and emphasized: "This is what the psychic said."

After saying this, the mayor began to drive people away, "Okay, I won't keep you any longer. You should be more careful. Also, I have asked someone to prepare the painting. It is downstairs. You can take it away."

Bar."

"Do you still want this companion?" The mayor pointed at Ouyang Huanbin and asked casually: "Let me tell you first, his condition is very bad, I'm afraid he won't live long."

Miao Qing looked at Ouyang Huanbin with eyes full of scrutiny. After a moment, Miao Qing looked at Jiang Cheng and said sincerely: "Brother Jiang, after all, we are all here together, please help if you can.

"

Jiang Cheng didn't know what Miao Qing was planning. Now Ouyang Huanbin was a useless person. Instead of letting him be at their mercy, the most direct way to use him was to leave him in the earliest room at night and use him as a shield.

This Miao Qing is really not a thing, and he actually thinks of himself!

Jiang Cheng sighed pretentiously and looked at Ouyang Huanbin with more sincere eyes than Miao Qing. Then he pursed his lips and said in a sad and helpless tone, "Brother Miao said it is true. Brother Wei also thinks so. Let's get together.

The field is also fate, if you can help me, hey, just help me."

Miao Qing: "Huh."

"Carry it away." Jiang Cheng waved his hand, and Fatty and Huaiyi immediately stepped forward and put Ouyang Huanbin, who was still looking silly at everyone, on a stretcher. They tied him tightly and took some more from the mayor.

Medicines, say goodbye and leave.

After seeing off Jiang Cheng's group, the mayor finally breathed a sigh of relief, especially the fat man's words, which were like a thorn in the mayor's heart.

He turned around and went to the shelf in the back to pour himself half a glass of wine.

A mouthful of strong alcohol went down his throat, and the mayor's expression softened a lot. The curse of the Dacorossa Manor shrouded the town like a haze. Just when the mayor was about to fall into memories, suddenly, there was an unreasonable wave.

A chill instantly enveloped him.

"Who?!" He instinctively looked towards the door.

Gu Zheng

The door was closed and he was the only one in the room.

But he clearly felt a gaze staring at him, cold and malicious, which made him tremble uncontrollably, until his peripheral vision inadvertently caught a glimpse of the painting on the table.

It was an unfinished painting, and the man in the painting raised his incomplete face and smiled at him.

With a "pop" sound, the wine glass fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

Jiang Cheng and his group came downstairs and got the painting. It was very large and was packed in a long box. Jiang Cheng opened it and checked it, but found no problems. The painting was the illustration in the book.

But the background and details are much better.

After carrying one person, everyone no longer wanted to hang out and went straight back to the manor. Anyway, with brother Ouyang Huanbin here, everyone should be able to have a good sleep tonight.

Miao Qing took the initiative to change Ouyang Huanbin's dressing, presumably because he was afraid that he would die.

After Ouyang Huanbin was settled, everyone gathered together. The painting left by the psychic was spread on the table, and next to it was the page of the book with the illustration.

"I've been looking at this painting for a long time, how do I feel..." The fat man stared at the painting with an expression that he was hesitant to speak.

"There is a strong sense of fragmentation," Jiang Cheng said.

The fat man nodded repeatedly and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, that's what I want to say, but I can't describe it. This painting seems to be pieced together."

"It's because the painter's observation angle is different." Jiang Cheng pointed to a corner of the painting and explained in the simplest possible language: "This painting is a mixture of several paintings that look at the manor from different perspectives."

"Perhaps this is what the psychic wants to remind us." After a pause, Jiang Cheng continued.

"What are you talking about?" Bai Xiaojie became more and more confused as she listened.

"It reminds us that we can only find the hidden door by changing our perspective." Miao Qing touched his chin, thoughtfully.

Based on the last words Halson left, everyone speculated that the missing body was hidden behind that door, in a rumored room that could not be found.

"Should we search in the manor?" Huaiyi suggested, "Go and look at the corresponding location in the painting. Maybe there will be clues."

"You can give it a try." Jiang Cheng nodded after thinking.

Then a group of people took the painting and the book and came to the manor to look for it.

After Jiang Cheng dismantled it, there were three scenes with different perspectives in the painting, namely the crooked tree with the corpse hanging, the deserted garden, and the building where they were located.

After comparing the first two places, no problems were found. At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the group turned back to the building. Jiang Cheng compared the paintings while looking for a location.
