"That's right, this person has lost his conscience and destroyed his humanity. How many innocent people have been killed, and now my grandfather has been killed. He must not be let go, otherwise, there will definitely be more victims. Zhang Ziling gritted his teeth and roared: "I must slaughter this bastard with my own hands." ”

"If our guess is correct, this person is injured and wants to live, then it is the fastest time to find the next suitable heart." Zhou Chen thought for a while and continued: "Before, Old Man Zhang said that killing that little girl was the last person, which means that the villages near Miaogu Village did not have a heart suitable for him, and even several villages near Miaogu Village did not have a heart suitable for him. So where will he go to find a new heart? ”

The crowd fell silent, figuring out the time, but not sure how much time it would take. One day? Ten days? Or 100 days? Naturally, there is no way to know whether the murderer's time is urgent, let alone the path of the murderer.

"There is another point that I don't understand, from Old Man Zhang's words, don't you think it's strange that the two reached an agreement?" Zhou Chen thought about it and asked again.

Zhang Ziling and the three of them were silent, Qingwei thought about it, and made a gesture, and several people understood the meaning of his gesture: It was indeed strange, as if the two had known each other before.

Rumble!

Seeing the gesture made by Qing Wilt, several people were even more surprised.

After thinking about it, if the two didn't know each other and weren't familiar with each other, and the murderer suddenly made a move on the people in the village, would Old Man Zhang be indifferent? And you're not sure how the other party can cultivate, so you can avoid it and not fight? This is definitely not the old man's style, not to mention that the old man's words have clearly known how the other party is cultivating. That means the two have known each other for a long time? So who is this person? What does it have to do with Mr. Zhang? And since the murderer knew that there was a person named Zhang Guangling in Miao Ancient Village, why did he risk his life to come here?

That's another problem!

Now that the old man is dead, there is no one to answer the doubts in their hearts.

"If this is the case, it means that this person has a purpose for coming to Miaogu Village." Zhou Chen glanced at everyone and said in a loud voice; continued: "First of all, we don't know anything about the murderer, although we know the murderer's appearance from the villagers, maybe it is easy to disguise; Secondly, this mountain is so big, there are only four of us, and we can't spread it out, so it's not so easy to find one; Finally, we can't let Old Man Zhang's bones be thrown here! Go back first, maybe there are clues left by Old Man Zhang at home! ”

The three of them thought about it repeatedly, and what Zhou Chen said was indeed right.

I don't know anything about the murderer, and I can't find it!

With the support of Zhou Chen and Qingku, Zhang Ziling went down the mountain with Old Man Zhang on his back.

At the head of the village, many old people gathered together to discuss the murder of Miss Xiaorui and accuse the murderer of his heinous cruelty; Seeing Zhang Ziling and his party carrying Mr. Zhang from the direction of the mountain, the old people all looked over here, and someone took the lead in asking, "Xiao Lingzi, what's wrong with Old Man Zhang?" ”

Zhang Ziling choked up a little and didn't know what to say.

"Xiao Lingzi, what the hell is going on?

The old people present were puzzled and felt that something was wrong, so they quickly stood up and gathered towards Zhang Ziling. When I walked in, Mr. Zhang closed his eyes tightly and his hands drooped, this is ...... Passed away? The old people looked flustered, although Old Man Zhang was the oldest among them, and his body was not handsome, but he rarely got sick, what was wrong?

"Xiao Lingzi, what's wrong with your grandfather? Speak quickly! Do you have to kill us in a hurry? ”

"My grandfather ...... He died. Zhang Ziling choked up a little, snorted fiercely, and said with a sad expression.

"What the hell is going on? Why is there no one in the good end? ”

"Yes! Although Old Man Zhang has a bad temper and a cold appearance, his heart is very hot; As long as anyone in the village is sick, he will help, and he is better than the doctors in the town. How can you say that if you don't, it's gone! ”

Hearing the old people discussing, Zhang Ziling felt even more sad, carrying the corpse of the old man Zhang and walking towards home, tears quickly moistened his eyes, Zhang Ziling tried his best not to let the tears fall. When he got home, he put the old man on the bed, and Zhang Ziling called his father. Although the grandfather has long disowned his father, now that the grandfather is deceased, he cannot fail to inform his father; Through the phone, Zhang Ziling could still feel his father choking and even convulsing.

Zhou Chen and the three of them helped clean up the house, and the people in the village heard that Old Man Zhang had passed away, so they also came to help, and went to the town to buy coffins, yellow paper, sacrifices, filial piety clothes and other things.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, the mourning hall was set up, and not long after, Zhang Ziling's father hurried back. His father was a man with a lofty body, exuding the temperament of a middle-aged mature man, looking at the cold body of his old father lying in the coffin, the middle-aged man couldn't help but cry. Zhou Chen and the others consciously retreated, everyone knew that this middle-aged man and his old father had too much to say, although Zhang Guangling couldn't hear it, but he still had to say - this is the duty of a son.

Zhou Chen and the others stood in the courtyard and didn't listen deliberately, but they still vaguely heard some content, it was nothing more than their son admitting his mistake, why didn't he wait for him to come back. After about half an hour, Zhang Ziling's father Zhang Yunshan walked out, his face was still stained with tears, and his expression was a little decadent, Zhou Chen and the others hurriedly asked him to sit down, Zhang Yunshan opened his mouth and asked: "Xiaoling, to be honest, how did your grandfather die?" ”

Zhang Ziling was silent for a while, and told him what had happened.

Zhang Yunshan's expression was even more sad, and he sighed deeply, as if he was talking to himself: "Since I was a child, my father said that I had no interest and that I had no sense of mission. In fact, I have always resisted this sense of mission, and I don't even understand his old man. At that time, he was willful, so he had to go out and have a chance, but he still didn't get forgiveness from his old man. Later, when you were born, I thought the old man would be nicer to me, but he still didn't recognize me. To this day, I still wonder if mission is really that important. For the sake of that illusory mission, even his life can be disregarded. ”

"Dad......"

Zhang Ziling wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

"I'm fine, I just don't understand. Since your grandfather thinks that you can fulfill the mission of the Zhang family, then you can follow your grandfather's path! Back then, Dad wanted to ease the relationship with your grandfather to keep you in the country, and now it's up to you to decide your own path. Zhang Yunshan slowly stood up, patted Zhang Ziling's shoulder, and instructed; His gaze shifted to Zhou Chen and asked, "Xiaoling said that before his grandfather died, he said that you were the master of our Zhang family?" ”

"The old man said it." Zhou Chen nodded and admitted.

"You come with me."

Zhang Yunshan dropped a sentence and walked towards the room where the coffin was placed.

"Dad."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to him!" Zhang Yunshan didn't stop, didn't turn around, and continued: "Since it was determined by the old man, I won't do anything to him no matter what!" What's more, in front of the old man's bones, I have been an unfilial son for so many years, and I will not continue to be an unfilial son. ”
