"Smack...... Bang ......

Rain...... ...... sound?

"Whew...... Whoa......

The sound of broken leaves blew into his ears with the breeze, and the slightly cool breath made Jiang Yao's body shrink subconsciously.

Not...... It's cold......

The hazy consciousness gradually regained its clarity driven by the cold, and the pain in his head slowly became obvious as he regained consciousness, Jiang Yao frowned, and finally opened his eyes.

The first thing that catches your eye is a huge golden intertwined light and shadow.

"This ...... Is it ......?" Jiang Yao held his sore head, struggled to prop up his body, and looked at the light and shadow again, and this time, he really saw what was in front of him.

The golden sycamore leaves flutter in the gentle breeze, and the sound of the squirting and the wind is like a gentle and harmonious symphony; under the towering canopy, is the ancient sycamore trunk, the surface of the trunk is covered with the marks of vicissitudes, the width is so thick that several people can not hug but can not surround it; but the most conspicuous thing is the two-person wide tree hole under the trunk, and at this time Jiang Yao is falling on the grass not far from the tree hole, looking dazed.

"This, this tree is ......!" Jiang Yao raised his head, and the shadow of this golden thousand-year-old sycamore was reflected in his stunned pupils, and the scene in front of him was like a dream, making him instantly fall into a certain long-term memory.

It's the thousand-year-old plane tree...... I, how could I...... Not!

The fluctuating emotions made Jiang Yao's head suddenly swell and pain, and he staggered to his feet, feeling a little confused, and his memory seemed to be broken. He didn't know why he was here, and he couldn't remember the cause and effect of the incident, as if his consciousness was covered with a layer of mist, and the whole person was in a trance.

I remember...... I seem to have fallen off the stone wall, but what is going on now? By the way, what about Lu Xingyue?!

「…… Little Lady ......"

Just when Jiang Yao hesitated, a call suddenly drifted into his ears from a distance, and the moment he heard the call, Jiang Yao's body stiffened suddenly, and his head seemed to flash thunder and lightning, and a "bang" exploded.

...... is this, this voice!?

Jiang Yao's body trembled slightly, his heartbeat intensified, and he turned his head stiffly to look in the direction where the voice came from.

A gentle breeze intertwined with fluttering sycamore leaves, gently brushing in front of him, and in front of the golden light and shadow, an elegant middle-aged man was standing not far away, smiling at him.

"Father...... ...... dear?"

Jiang Yao stared blankly at the familiar man in front of him, and surging emotions burst out from his chest in an instant. Joy, sorrow, longing...... All kinds of emotions accompanied by a thunderous heartbeat hit the most sensitive part of his heart, and for a moment he seemed to have forgotten where he was and what he was going to do, he only felt that his gaze seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and where his gaze was focused, there were only the gentle eyes of the man.

"Oh, you child...... Don't always call me 'father' so rusty, you have to call me 'daddy'. The middle-aged man smiled, raised his feet and walked up to Jiang Yao, and reached out to rub Jiang Yao's hair affectionately.

"......" Jiang Yao looked at the man in front of him intently, his lips opened and closed slightly, but the words seemed to be stuck in his throat, he only felt that two slightly cool touches seemed to pass through his cheeks, and unconsciously, he was in tears.

"Oh, why are you still crying? Are you hungry?" The middle-aged man scratched his head, seemingly a little overwhelmed, but then remembered something, hurriedly stuffed a few fruits in his pocket into Jiang Yao's hand, and smiled like a child. "Alas~ Wronged our little guy slept in the tree hole for one night, look, Dad found some fruit in the woods, eat it, let's continue to hurry after eating, we will definitely find the way out today!"

"Hmm......" Jiang Yao wiped his tears and nodded slightly, he no longer thought about the original situation, even if all this was just a dream, he also wanted to stay by this man's side, even if it was a moment longer.

"Hmm...... Speaking of which, this tree is really big, at least thousands of years. The middle-aged man raised his head and looked at the towering sycamore behind the two, then put down the shotgun on his shoulder, folded his hands, and respectfully bowed to the ancient tree.

"Thank you to the big tree for accepting me and Xiaoya to stay in the tree hole for one night, and I hope the big tree will bless us to go down the mountain safely......"

"Dad......" Seeing the man's pious appearance, Jiang Yao didn't know what to say for a while.

"Come, Xiaoyao, you also come to say goodbye, if it weren't for this big tree, we didn't know if we could survive last night, people should be grateful to nature, you know?" The middle-aged man beckoned to Jiang Yao with a smile and said.

"Oh, good, good......" Jiang Yao came back to his senses and hurriedly walked to the man's side by side.

"As the saying goes, everything has a spirit, and the tree of your wishes will hear it. The man looked at the golden sycamore in front of him and said softly. "Maybe one day, it will help you survive and bless you with a safe life. ”

It's mine...... If the tree could hear it, I hope it was......

Jiang Yao clasped his hands together and closed his eyes.

The breeze blew across Jiang Yao's face again, driving the leaves to make a "rustling" sound, but the strange thing was that the breeze that originally had the smell of grass was suddenly mixed with a trace of ominous bloody breath at this moment.

Not?

Jiang Yao opened his eyes suddenly, but suddenly found that the golden light and shadow in front of him disappeared, and the brilliant golden plane leaves were gradually eroded in the thick black hurricane, and under the cloudy sky, the thousand-year-old tree in front of him suddenly scattered its branches and leaves, leaving only the twisted branches, which looked particularly hideous in the lightning and thunder, and with the yin wind, the smell of blood became more and more intense.

"It's ...... What's going on!?" Jiang Yao was shocked, he suddenly seemed to remember something, turned his head to look aside, only to find that the middle-aged man who was supposed to be by his side was gone.

"Dad!Dad, where are you!!" Jiang Yao's face turned pale all of a sudden, and a strong uneasiness surged in his heart, and he began to shout around like crazy, but he couldn't find the middle-aged man's figure.

"Dad...... Don't leave me, please......" Jiang Yao fell to his knees weakly, his body trembling uncontrollably. He was afraid, afraid of losing that person again, afraid of the nightmare scene in the depths of his memory to play out again, but now he could do nothing but shout.

No, no...... I can't go on like this!I'm going to find him, I can't lose him again!!

The strong emotions surging in his chest stimulated Jiang Yao's nerves, and he struggled to stand up, and searched around again against the increasingly fierce black wind. Soon, he suddenly noticed that under the shadow of the plane tree trunk in front of him, there seemed to be a ghostly black shadow.

Father......?

Jiang Yao looked at the figure, and involuntarily staggered towards the figure, the figure in front of him stood by the tree, and seemed to be looking in the direction of Jiang Yao, but Jiang Yao soon found that the figure of this black shadow seemed to be quite different from his father.

No...... Who is this man??

Jiang Yao wanted to stop, but found that his legs were against his will, constantly approaching the black shadow. At the same time, he felt his heart beat faster and faster, his vision began to blur a little, and a soul-like uneasiness grew stronger in his chest.

No, you can't go near that person!

Jiang Yao's instinct gave a warning, but his feet staggered forward unobediently. Gradually, the voice in Jiang Yao's ears slowly disappeared, and his gaze seemed to be fixed and difficult to take away from the black shadow, and the black shadow was still hidden under the shadow of the tree, and his face was obscure.

「…… Xiao Ya ...... Don't go...... Don't go over!!"

An urgent shout suddenly woke Jiang Yao from his blurred consciousness, he stopped suddenly, and the energy in his body began to surge uncontrollably under the shock.

"......Hmmmm!!" Jiang Yao clutched his chest, half-kneeling on the ground, his gaze flashing a strange twist as his energy fluctuated. He struggled to raise his head and looked ahead again, only to find that the dark shadow beside the trunk was gone!

"Bang ——!!"

The piercing gunfire resounded in the sky, and it also made Jiang Yao's heart suddenly fall into an ice cellar. He shuddered and turned his head, even though he had prayed countless times in his heart, but he saw the last thing he wanted to see.

What caught my eye was the cold corpse of my father lying in a pool of blood.

No, no......!Why, why!!

The huge sadness and loss instantly broke through Jiang Yao's reason, and also caused the ocean of energy in his body to burst into monstrous waves. For a while, the ground began to shake violently, and even the canopy of lightning and thunder began to crack like glass.

"You killed him......"

The immature voice came from the front of him, and the depressed Jiang Yao slowly raised his head, and he saw a thin young figure next to the man's corpse.

A familiar face, blood-red eyes, and a face full of grief and indignation with two lines of blood and tears. Standing in front of Jiang Yao at this moment is himself, belonging to Jiang Yao, a thirteen-year-old boy who belongs to that year.

You, you're ......!

Jiang Yao's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

"It's all ...... Because you ......," the young Jiang Yao muttered, reaching out to the shotgun on the ground. I saw that his five fingers were wrapped with a layer of demonic energy mixed with red light, and it continued to extend and expand along the fingertips, like a huge claw, instantly lifting the shotgun on the ground and holding it in his hand.

"Give me back ......" the young Jiang Yao cried and pointed his gun at the adult Jiang Yao in front of him.

"Put Daddy...... Give it back to me!!"

"Rumble——!!

The roar of falling thunder and the piercing sound of gunfire rang out at the same time, and the crumbling canopy of heaven was torn apart at that moment. Gu Shu, father, young Jiang Yao, everything was wiped out in an instant, Jiang Yao only felt that the energy in his body could not restrain the surge, and then it was dark in front of him, and the remaining consciousness was instantly swallowed up by the energy of the riot.
