This is meaty!

Jiang Yunjin turned pale instantly.

She suppressed the swelling in her throat and quickly stepped forward to Boss Jiang.

He grabbed the other person's sleeve, faced the other person's surprised gaze, and put his index finger between his lips.

"Shh, daddy, come with me."

Jiang Yunjin lowered his voice to a very low level, and after attracting Boss Jiang's attention, he led the people into hiding in the forest.

The father and daughter stood up and walked among the yellowed hay. In order not to attract attention, they walked to extremely remote places.

After stumbling, I reached the center of the forest.

As soon as they arrived at the place, both of them were shocked.

I never expected that there was a thatched house in this inconspicuous grove!

Not only that, there were slices of bacon drying on several wooden racks in front of the thatched house, and there were many bones piled in the corner.

Those bones vary in length.

Jiang Yunjin could tell at a glance that those in the corner were all human bones!

Boss Jiang was also shocked, but he didn't immediately recognize that it was human bones.

Instead, he looked at the thatched cottage in front of him curiously, saying it was a paradise.

"This place is nice, and there are so many bacons! You won't have to worry about winter." Boss Jiang said with emotion.

Jiang Yunjin, who was standing next to his legs, twitched the corners of his mouth and gave him a pitiful look.

I hope that when dad knows the truth later, he will still feel this way.

In order to let Boss Jiang know the truth as soon as possible, Jiang Yunjin groped his way along the meaty scent.

Soon, Boss Jiang also smelled the aroma of meat, which was a little different than the meat he usually eats!

The two followed the scent and came to the back of the thatched house.

What came into view was a large iron pot, with firewood burning under the pot and hot mist floating on it.

The aroma of meat they smelled just now was coming from the firewood in front of them.

When Boss Jiang saw this, he stopped stepping forward.

"Daughter, let's go back."

A trace of embarrassment appeared on Boss Jiang's honest face. Looking around, the embarrassment on his face became more and more obvious.

Jiang Yunjin saw his father's reaction and instantly understood what he meant.

They probably felt that someone was living there, and if they came here rashly, they would definitely cause displeasure to others.

Just when she was anxiously trying to find an excuse to stay, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the distance.

When the father and daughter saw this, they quickly lowered their bodies and hid themselves among the weeds.

Peering out through the cracks in the weeds.

An elderly man came with a staggering step. He moved his eyes upward and found that the person looked very familiar.

Jiang Yunjin looked carefully and quickly discovered that the old man in front of him was the gatekeeper of the inn.

Could it be...

An unspeakable thought arose in Jiang Yunjin's mind.

Before she could take a closer look, a big hand came down from her head, trapping her in darkness.

Here, Jiang Yunjin suddenly heard a strong heartbeat, the sound was fast and fierce, as if he had discovered something terrible.

She felt enlightened.

This was discovered.

She finally found out, otherwise she would have to find a way to let her father find out.

The action lasted for just a moment before Boss Jiang freed his daughter from his arms.

There was no time to explain, so he took his daughter back to the inn while there was no one around.

"Snapped"

The back door was closed again.

Boss Jiang couldn't help but breathe heavily, and when he thought about the smell of meat he had just praised, his heart couldn't help but surge.

In order not to scare his daughter, Mr. Jiang suppressed the discomfort.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

After Jiang Yunjin saw that Boss Jiang had almost calmed down, he spoke in a low voice.

The little girl's soft voice made the nervous Boss Jiang lower his guard.

He stretched out his hand to pull his daughter in front of him, and carefully warned a few words, "Don't tell others what you saw today! Don't even tell your mother. Daddy will definitely protect you!"

Jiang Yunjin pretended to be frightened and nodded timidly.

She never thought about telling her mother, only her father could do this.

After the father and daughter stayed outside for a while, they returned to the room where the Jiang family was.

At this moment, the Jiang family had just made dinner. Each person took a bowl and went to eat.

Boss Jiang didn't eat much because he was worried.

He ate a few hasty bites, whispered a few words to Mrs. Jiang, turned around and left the room.

The night falls outside.

Boss Jiang came out of the house and looked around. After finding nothing unusual, he went to the resting place of the Pei family.

The inn is large, but there are not many places to stay.

The Pei family packed out three rooms in total.

Mrs. Pei has one room, Master Pei has one room, and the other servants have one room.

When Boss Jiang came to the resting place of the Pei family, Mrs. Pei had just finished dinner.

Boss Jiang entered the house and saluted Mrs. Pei and Master Pei.

"Why are my benefactors so polite? What do you mean by coming here now?"

Mrs. Pei stood up, exchanged greetings, and then asked.

Boss Jiang did not speak immediately, but looked at Master Pei with a troubled expression.

Seeing this, Mrs. Pei hurriedly said: "My dear friend, just say it. There is no need to be restrained."

With one sentence, Boss Jiang stopped caring and immediately told what he saw in the forest.

"Mrs. Pei, this is absolutely true! You must be more vigilant. If that person gives you something to eat, you must not eat it!"

What Boss Jiang said is true.

After coming back, he was thinking, why can one old man kill so many people?

Or there is help!

Or there is a trick.

No matter what it is, you must be careful.

On their trip, there were many people accompanying them. Who knew whether the other party would take action?

Caution is paramount!

When Mrs. Pei heard this, her gentle expression froze, and then a look of deep thought appeared on her face.

After a long time, she thanked Boss Jiang with a grateful look on her face, and at the same time told the woman next to her to tell the people below to be more vigilant and to keep their mouths shut!

The old lady agreed with a pale face, turned around and left in a hurry.

Mrs. Pei also expressed gratitude to Mr. Jiang.

The mother-in-law came back with a look of urgency on her face.

"Madam is not well!" The old woman took a deep breath, calmed down, and continued: "I just went to inform you all, but unexpectedly I met the old man at the post station distributing broth to you!"

"What?"

Mrs. Pei stood up with a look of shock.

They all know very well what broth is!

If my benefactor hadn't spoken in advance, I'm afraid even they would have...

Thinking of this, Mrs. Pei suppressed the nausea in her heart and asked in a trembling voice: "Then they are..."

"No madam! Fortunately, the old slave arrived in time and sent the person away!" the old woman said with a scared look on her face.

After hearing this, Mrs. Pei was really relieved.

Originally I had some doubts about my benefactor, but now I don’t dare to doubt him at all.

Boss Jiang, who was standing aside, frowned.

When I thought of the Jiang family, I couldn't stay still.

"Madam, I have said everything that needs to be said, and I still want to say it to my family!"

Boss Jiang left the place where the Pei family stayed and went straight to the room where the Jiang family rested.

As he was about to approach, he suddenly saw an old man walking out empty-handed.

Looking carefully through the moonlight, I was surprised to find that it was the gatekeeper of the inn!

Could it be that all his family members...
