Before I knew it, it was late at night, and after the dog was fed the medicine, he slept very soundly, and intermittently, there were black crows outside flapping their wings and neighing, causing people to palpitate.

"Yu believes that if your mother's ghost is still in this village, it must be here to bless you, and it will not harm anyone."

The man surnamed Yu said firmly, although it was groundless, but it calmed Bai Chen's heart, and his right palm rubbed the black jade hanging on his chest, thoughtfully. When he came back to his senses, the man had already fallen asleep against the Buddha platform, and he was really an unsuspecting scholar.

There was rain at night, he was afraid that he would catch a cold, Bai Chen took some grass over and covered the man, and used it as a quilt.

The rain hit the doors and windows of the broken temple, making a "dangdang" sound.

Bai Chen didn't sleep well, firstly, because this kid not only talked in his dreams, but he was not honest in his sleep, he always hung his legs on him, and then, thinking of what happened ten years ago, the scar in his heart seemed to be forcibly torn apart, and the blood was dripping, and how did he sleep in the past?

At dawn, the rain had stopped, and the dog was the first to wake up, and at a glance he saw Bai Chen lying on his side, and shouted in surprise: "Oops! It's you big badass! ”

This voice immediately woke up the other two people, at dawn, Bai Chen barely fell asleep, and was woken up again within a few hours, with a sense of resentment in his heart, and grabbed the dog's pigtails: "You stinky boy, what are you yelling about early in the morning?" Call me a badass? If I were a bad guy, I should have thrown you in the middle of nowhere last night, and I didn't care if you lived or died?! ”

"You're still scaring me!" Taking advantage of Bai Chen's yawn, the dog grabbed the pigtail and broke free, and fled as if there were more behind the surnamed Yu, pointing at Bai Chen and saying, "You are a villain, even a child like me is bullied!" Big Bad! ”

Bai Chen was so angry that he almost didn't go up, and gave the dog a fat beating again.

"You, you, you! You still want to hit me?! The dog ducked behind the surnamed Yu, "Just scare me, my ass still hurts after I was beaten yesterday!" You scoundrel! Bad apple! ”

The man surnamed Yu was stunned by them for a while, stretched out his hand and stopped with a smile: "Eh, you two don't make trouble, you two will make me dizzy." ”

Coughed a few times awkwardly, and finally glared at the dog with warning, Bai Chen dusted off the grass clippings on his body, and went straight to the door, after the rain, there were muddy shallow ponds everywhere, and the miasma shrouded the head of Guanlin Village was getting thicker and thicker.

There was no time, he had to find the source of the plague outbreak as soon as possible, whether it was man-made or ghostly, he had to hurry up and put an end to it.

"Mr. Yu." Bai Chen turned around and solemnly bowed to the surnamed Yu's arched hand, "What is the situation outside, you should also know that at the moment, this child is afraid that he is the only one who has not been infected with the epidemic." I still have important things to do, and I can't take care of him, so I bother Mr. Yu to take care of him more and take him out of here. ”

"Little brother, don't worry, Yu will be dedicated."

The dog stopped doing it, and when he heard that he was going to be taken out of Guanlin Village, he jumped out at once: "Who said I was leaving?" I'm not going! You scoundrel, are you going to send me out and sell me to human traffickers? I don't believe you! ”

"You little brat, no matter how much nonsense you make, I really don't care if you live or die!" It's really a sin, if it weren't for seeing that the other party is just a child and having pity, he wouldn't have softened his heart.

"Who wants you to take care of it?" Goudan'er's eyes rolled, snatched the door from Bai Chen's side, and ran out for a long distance before holding a slingshot and making a gesture to hit Bai Chen, "My dog'er will take care of herself, and I don't need you adults to pretend to be good to me." ”

Bai Chen scolded secretly, just wanted to catch up, but after thinking about it, forget it, Brother Sheng once warned that everyone in the world has their own fate, and he has already reminded him, but he still doesn't want to turn back, so it has become his wishful thinking to change his life, and the ending will naturally not change in any way.

This child may be destined to be like this, destined to be disillusioned with Guan Lin Village.

He didn't say anything, just turned around and nodded to the stunned person, just said goodbye, and left the broken temple directly.

Bai Chen thought that this plague had suddenly broken out, and it involved such a wide range of areas, only the inconspicuous things that permeated the lives of the villagers could easily do this.

And after scrutinizing, there is only one place, that is, the well at the head of the village, from which the water source of the entire village is drawn, whether it is people or domestic animals, they cannot do without water.

But...... Why is the dog safe and sound?

With doubts, Bai Chen had a definite goal for the first time and walked towards the entrance of the village.

There was no figure on the village road, it was dead and silent, as if walking in a ghost village, the people who passed by were all covering the gates, and they could still see a few villagers leaning on the door to ask him for help, and Bai Chen was indifferently skimming them one by one.

When performing tasks, you can't be swayed by your own emotions, that's the iron rule of pawnshops.

But if it's unfortunate, it's really his mother's ghost, how should he choose?

Bai Chen stood in front of the well at the head of the village, his face wrinkled, he only hated that his brain was not enough, and he didn't know how to check next. The well has been used for hundreds of years, and the rope is full of traces of time.

"What's that?" A person's voice suddenly came from behind him, startling Su Yi, only to find that it was the one surnamed Yu, and the person saluted, "Yu can't rest assured, just come and take a look." ”

Secure? What is he relieved of? A scholar, who is already in weak health, is still in this plagued village, which is simply killing himself.

Well, he didn't want to bother with that much.

Looking in the direction that the surname Yu was pointing, something was stuck on the well rope, and under the light, it was faintly glowing.

"Earrings?"

The moment Bai Chen took it down, the person surnamed Yu suddenly looked stunned, and looked at Bai Chen a little at a loss.

In this village, there are all rural village women, not to mention earrings, even a decent head flower is rare, and the only person Bai Chen can think of will wear earrings here - his mother, Bai Jinmei.

It's always been the case, the more you don't want anything to happen, the more things tend to go in the direction you don't want to see, until you recognize that harsh reality.

Bai Chen quietly put away the earrings, without making a strange look, he had to be calm and must not be swayed by emotion.

"It's just an earring, it doesn't mean anything." The surnamed Yu seemed to be able to read minds, and seemed to be comforting Bai Chen, "What's more, I don't know when this earring fell here." ”

Is he really going to continue to deceive himself?

"Mr. Yu, you're not from this village, so it's better to leave as soon as possible."

Bai Chen did not follow the words of the surname Yu, but put such a sentence of "eviction order", and walked back with an expressionless face rubbing his shoulder.
