Hearing that someone in the house answered, Chen Yichen was also happy in his heart. Let's go and inquire first, at least to know where you are now, and there is a place to stay today.

The two crossed the bluestone road and came to the door of the hall. Through the oil lamp in the house, I can see that this is not a family, but an ancestral hall. The offerings and incense burners on the incense table in the hall had somehow been knocked to the ground, and the tablets were scattered all over the floor, and a dim oil lamp was the only item on the table.

"This..."Chen Yichen looked at everything in front of him, he really didn't know what was going on, but one thing was certain, that is, it was very messy, and he subconsciously said, "Why is it so messy?"

"It's not bad, it's even more messy. ”

"Who is it?" The voice that came from nowhere made Chen Yichen's heart tighten, and he subconsciously blocked Li Wanwan behind him, and his eyes quickly looked around the ancestral hall, but he didn't see any figure.

"Like you, passers-by. ”

The more he listened to this voice, the more familiar it became, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it, Chen Yichen's brain quickly recalled everyone he knew. I don't have a clue when I think about it, I just don't think about it, there are not many people I know in the first place, not to mention how it is possible to meet acquaintances in this village where I don't know what it is?

With this thought, Chen Yichen no longer cared about this, but continued to look around vigilantly, and said slowly: "You, where are you? Why can't I see you?"

only heard his voice and didn't see his person, which gave Chen Yichen an idea. Could the other party be a peerless master who flies the eaves and walks the wall, hiding somewhere at this time, waiting for the opportunity to move.

"Probably ......" the voice paused suddenly, and after a moment he was heard to continue, "Because you didn't look back." ”

After hearing this, the two subconsciously turned around to watch, only to find that there was an old man sitting on the ground behind the door. When I entered, the door of the ancestral hall was open, and I just observed the situation in front of me, but I didn't expect that the person was behind the door.

"Is that you?" Chen Yichen was also taken aback, the person in front of him had indeed seen it, no wonder he was a little familiar with what he said. Looking at him with a stunned expression, he continued, "Why are you here?

The man on the ground slowly stood up, only to see that he was wearing a peaked straw hat on his head and a blue-gray patched robe. He wears a pair of open-toed sprinkling shoes on his feet. There is a dust whisk stuck in his back, and he holds a large wooden stick made of a pepper tree with a gong on it. This person is the blind man who appeared in the Qingyun Taoist Temple earlier, Ni Shuzi.

"Hehe, this is a fresh question, if the blind man guessed correctly, it should be the ancestral hall. Ni Shuzi was on crutches, his head shook slightly, and he couldn't see a little black eyeball in the white eyelids of his eyes, so he continued: "The two of you can be here, why can't Ni Shuzi be here?"

Chen Yi and Chen pondered, and the secret way was reasonable. But after thinking about it, this is too coincidental, how did a blind man come here over the mountains and mountains, and how did he walk faster than a normal person. Could this be his home?

All kinds of questions in my heart kept coming, but one thing is certain, the person named Ni Shuzi in front of him should have no ill will towards him, after all, he can be regarded as indirectly saving himself in Qingyunguan. Thinking of this, Chen Yichen felt a sense of security in his heart, and even felt a little grateful in his heart.

"The two of us got lost in the mountains, and it was an accident that we came here. Why did my seniors end up here, and what kind of place is this? Chen Yichen tried his best to imitate the appearance of the people in the rivers and lakes, and he silently remembered the people and things he encountered along the way.

"Alas, Ni Shuzi, like you, was only able to come here by chance. The whole village is empty, and after Ni Shuzi's investigation, this is the most magnificent place in the whole village, the ancestral hall. Speaking of this, Ni Shuzi slowly took a few steps forward, pointed to the tablet on the ground and continued: "The ancestral hall, such an important place is so messy, obviously there was a fight. ”

One bite of your old man, it always makes Chen Yichen feel a little uncomfortable, no way, who let the family call this name. And as a blind man, he can still know so much detail, Chen Yichen is very suspicious of him. Because of the love that had saved him, he could only say politely: "Senior, are you really invisible, or are you pretending not to be invisible?"

"Ni Shuzi, I'm blind, I'm not blind. As he spoke, he sighed and said slowly, "You are lucky." ”

"Senior, what do you mean by this?" Chen Yichen sensed a hint of something strange from his tone, and secretly pondered, could it be that there was something hidden in it?

He didn't want to think about it, so he heard Ni Shuzi say slowly: "Let's go and see for yourself." ”

Seeing Ni Shuzi pouting towards the back of the ancestral hall, Chen Yi and Chen looked suspiciously, paused slightly, and walked towards the small door in the backyard.

"You stay. The crutches in Ni Shuzi's hand stopped Li Wanwan and said, "What kind of excitement is a girl's house." ”

"Senior, why can't I go?" Li Wanwan is no stranger to Ni Shuzi, not to mention that there are not so many good and evil in her eyes. It's not that I want to see what's in the backyard, I'm just worried about Chen Yichen.

"Wanwan, you can wait for me here. Chen Yichen smiled, vaguely feeling that the backyard would definitely not be so simple, and after taking a breath, he stepped out of the threshold.

Before stepping out of the room, Chen Yichen was ready. What happened in Liuhua Town made this half-old child accept the fragility of life. The sky was dark, but it was not yet enough to reach out and lose sight. When he saw the situation in the backyard, his head buzzed, and goosebumps instantly spread all over the pores of his body.

Chen Yichen has imagined various scenes in his head, and for him, the corpse in Liuhua Town is already the most cruel picture. A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy who walked out of the house for the first time can be regarded as having seen the world. At the same time, his limited experience also hindered his imagination.

In the courtyard, which was originally small, now there is a river of blood, and the corpses are piled up into a hill, and they are miserable. I only felt that my scalp was numb, and my stomach felt like a river and a sea. Chen Yichen did not hesitate at all, turned around and stepped into the ancestral hall.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong with you?" Li Wanwan looked at his face white, puzzled, stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, and said, "What's in the backyard?"

Chen Yichen didn't speak, just shook his head and strode towards the outside of the ancestral hall. I had just taken a few steps under my feet, and I couldn't bear it anymore, and the gastric juice rushed through my throat, and with a whoosh, even the gastric juice spit out.

"Brother Yichen, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this situation, Li Wanwan panicked, looked at Chen Yichen, and then looked at Ni Shuzi, I don't know what was sent just now, so I can only keep gently patting his back.

"No... It's okay. Chen Yichen squatted on the ground, panting in his mouth, shook his hand, and said to Li Wanwan: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

After a while, Chen Yichen let out a long breath, stood up from the ground, and subconsciously protected Li Wanwan behind him. looked at Ni Shuzi, pointed to the backyard and said, "This, you did it?"

"Hehe, the young man really thinks highly of Ni Shuzi. Ni Shuzi sneered a few times and said slowly: "With such a big stroke, Ni Shuzi can't do it." ”

"What, what's wrong?" Li Wanwan saw the two talking so strangely, she couldn't help but become interested in the backyard, and just wanted to go and have a look, she was dragged by Chen Yichen.

"Behind are dead people. ”

"Dead .. Dead people?" Liu Huazhen remembered vividly, although Chen Yichen protected her in his arms at that time, he also crossed a lot of dead corpses along the way. Li Wanwan slowly retreated, thinking of Chen Yichen's reaction just now, and said, "Is it a lot?"

Chen Yichen nodded and said, "Senior, what the hell is going on? Could it be that the entire village is dying in the backyard?"

"That's only part of the story. Ni Shuzi bent over, accurately picked up the incense burner that had fallen to the ground, shook the remaining incense ashes, put it on the table, lit three incense sticks, and said: "The corpses in the back should only be old and weak women and children, and the adult man is afraid that he will be arrested." ”

Chen Yichen became more and more confused, whether the person in front of him, who called himself Ni Shuzi, was blind or not. If so, how could he pick up the incense burner accurately? If not, there are no black eyeballs in the eyes, where to see things. Even the dead body in the back can be distinguished, how to do it?

Chen Yichen was suspicious of him, wiped his mouth with his cuffs, and said, "Who took them away and brutally killed them here?"

"Life. The pity on Ni Shuzi's face quickly disappeared, and he returned to his previous state, saying, "Hehe, it's like someone is going to kill you, this is fate." ”

"Senior, why did they kill Brother Chen?" Li Wanwan learned from Chen Yichen's appearance, and shouted out from his mouth.

"Hehe, how can I know, Ni Shuzi, just like why the people here were killed. After speaking, Ni Shuzi slowly turned around, walked to the door, and said: "You can do it yourself, fate is destined by God, not in your own hands." ”

"Is fate destined by God, not in his own hands?" Chen Yichen muttered this sentence repeatedly to Ni Shuzi, and when he woke up, he found that the person in front of him had disappeared. Strode to the door, looking around, not to mention people, not even a ghost.

"Senpai, where are you going, what is this place?" the empty street did not respond, as if the man had never appeared.

"Brother Chen, who is he?" Li Wanwan followed him out of the ancestral hall, looked at the dead village, and said, "Otherwise, let's get out of here." I, I'm a little scared. ”

Chen Yichen shook his head and nodded, turned to look at the faint light in the ancestral hall, grabbed Li Wanwan's hand, and the two returned to the house again. The reason why I chose to stay here is because of Wanwan's physical condition. At this time, she needed a good night's rest.

Although the owner of the house is not there, the basic living utensils are still there, and there is absolutely no problem living here. After settling Li Wanwan, Chen Yichen held his chin and stood by the bed.

The stars are shining brightly, and the full moon is hanging high. The experience of the past few days came to his mind, like a dream, but he clearly knew that it was not a dream. looked at the sleeping girl in front of him, showing a wry smile, not even knowing where she was, how to bring her home. I don't know if Dr. Zhang has returned to Lingshou Village, and I don't know what his parents will be in a hurry.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he suddenly noticed a figure on the window, standing motionless. Shocked in his heart, he lowered his voice and said, "Who?"

I didn't see the person outside the window answering, but I saw the black shadow slowly walking away. Could it be Ni Shuzi? Chen Yichen looked at Li Wanwan who was sleeping, hesitated, and finally walked out of the room.

Man, standing in the courtyard, standing with his hands in his hands. It can be seen in the moonlight that this person is not Ni Shuzi, and he is wearing a white dress, which adds a bit of mystery.

"Who are you?" Chen Yichen looked at the back in the courtyard, his heart became nervous, and Leng Buding appeared in the middle of the night, dressed in white, and more importantly, there was no one in the whole village. Except, of course, for those corpses in the ancestral hall.

"Is that you?"

"It's your mother, I'm your father. "Chen Yichen is so angry, it doesn't matter if he comes out in the middle of the night to be scary, he even dares to scold me. If it weren't for Li Wanwan, who was sleeping in the room, he would have scolded a long time ago.

Hearing his answer, the man in white was also stunned, he had thought of countless kinds of dialogue, but he didn't expect this one. frowned, turned around slowly, looked at Chen Yichen standing at the door, and said slowly, "It's me." ”

"You, who are you?" Through the moonlight, he could see the other party's appearance clearly, a young man with delicate facial features and a fair face that looked indifferent.

"Flowers. Finally, a smile crossed the corner of his mouth, making people look a little charming. Just listen to him continue: "You're finally back. ”

"You, you've mistaken someone. I, I'm not the owner of this house, just passing through. ”

Chen Yichen even felt that the other party was not talking to him. Hua Rongxiang, this name has never been heard of, and the person in front of him really doesn't know it, and has never seen it. But there is no one else here but yourself.

"It's you, you're finally back. ”

I saw Hua Rongxiang take a step forward, his figure was like a ghost, but in the blink of an eye, he was already standing in front of him. Chen Yichen gasped, took two steps back, widened his eyes, and said, "Are you a human or a ghost?"

"When you meet people, you are people, and when you meet ghosts, you are ghosts. As soon as the words fell, I saw Hua Rongxiang dodge, stood beside Chen Yichen again, grabbed his arm with one hand, and added a dagger in the other hand at some point.

"What are you doing... Ahh Seeing him behaving like this, Chen Yichen was also startled, looked down and saw the short sword in his hand, and was about to dodge, when he suddenly felt a tingling pain from his fingertips.

"Lend you a drop of blood. ”

Hua Rongxiang's hand retracted, pinched Chen Yichen's broken finger, and pinched it gently, and blood dripped down. The dagger in his hand greeted the blood, and I saw the blood dripping on the dagger and disappearing, as if it had never happened, and there was no trace in sight.

All this happened so fast that Chen Yichen didn't have time to make any action to resist, and he forgot to resist for a while. Seeing the second drop, the third drop of blood falling, he withdrew his arm and said, "You, what the hell do you want to do?"

"It's you, it's really you, you're back. ”

Looking at the dagger in his hand, Hua Rongxiang smiled. This time the smile was very real, maybe even he didn't remember, how long it had been since he laughed like this.
