It was half a month before he returned to the location of the Zhao clan again.

It took seven days for the fire to be completely extinguished, and then two weeks of various police shuttles to the fire site made it impossible for Zhang Fan to get close.

It wasn't until two days ago that the newspaper officially identified the mountain fire as a lightning fire, so the police force was withdrawn, and only some fire prevention propaganda was strengthened, so that Zhang Fanyang had the opportunity to enter the mountain.

This period of time can be said to be the most miserable time Zhang Fanyang has spent in his life, penniless he is fortunate to have this body, although it is a little dirty and smelly, but he can get some leftovers from time to time, so that he will not starve to death on the side of the road.

During this period, he also managed to call his adoptive parents a few times, but the empty number reminder on the other end of the phone made his heart sink more and more.

Thinking of the messenger mentioned in the conversation between the group of bandits before, Zhang Fanyang was sure that there was a traitor with a foreign surname in the Zhao clan, and he didn't know if his adoptive parents would be innocently implicated, which also made him even more eager to go into the mountains to find evidence.

But when he came to the small village again from memory, he was completely dumbfounded.

The once idyllic village with its green trees is long gone, let alone corpses, not even a single brick or tile has been found, as if no one had ever lived here.

Fortunately, the tombstones on the mountain are still there, although they are broken and have experienced a hundred years of vicissitudes, but it finally made Zhang Fanyang sure that everything he experienced before was not a dream.

Rushing all the way to the top of the mountain, I looked at the stone pavilion in front of me for a while—the barrier here had actually been broken, and there was no trace of the liquid medicine and corpses in the stone pavilion.

Zhang Fanyang gritted his teeth, took off the only piece of jade left by the policeman from his neck, opened the door to the secret room, and did not exhale slowly until he saw the half of the pool of transparent liquid again.

After sitting in the secret room for nearly an hour, Zhang Fanyang finally figured out the current situation.

Looking at the current situation, the person who came to exterminate the clan must be the relevant person in the evil world mentioned by the uncle.

Such a clean and neat means of exterminating evidence is not something that ordinary people can do.

And even if he told all the secrets now, the police would definitely only arrest him as mentally ill.

Is it up to him, an ordinary person, to fight against those people?

After careful consideration, Zhang Fanyang decided to go back to his hometown to find his adoptive parents first, since they had been in contact with the Zhao clan, maybe it was the right way to discuss with them now.

After making up his mind, Zhang Fanyang went to the secret book room and picked out a Taoist primer and put it in his arms, and after finding nothing helpful, he returned to the town with the piece of jade in his arms.

This time, he learned some begging skills from the homeless man, and even asked for food for a week, so he barely scraped together enough money to take a shower, buy a set of clean clothes, and set out on the way home.

Without identity documents, Zhang Fanyang could only take various private buses to his hometown, and when he left, the homeless man took out all his savings but only enough for a car.

starved and finally survived to his hometown, but Zhang Fanyang suffered a bigger blow - the house he once lived in with his adoptive parents had long been empty; The unit they said before did not find this person, and even the name and ID card could not be found at the public security bureau.

What's even more bizarre is that his own identity information has also disappeared without a trace, as if this family has never appeared in the world at all.

The helpless Zhang Fanyang rushed to his aunt's former residence overnight, but was driven out by the village chief who didn't seem to know him at all.

In the cold wind of the late night in the northeast, Zhang Fanyang knelt by the grave where his aunt and grandmother had been buried. He really didn't understand how he had gone from an ordinary college student to where he is today.

But after crying, he wiped his tears and made a decision, first put the uncle whose life and death were unknown, and finding his adoptive parents was the most important thing.

In order to start over but not want to completely forget the past, he assumed the pseudonym Zhang Fanyang, and struggled to survive while picking up waste and doing odd jobs, while constantly looking for clues about his adoptive parents.

Who knew that the parents didn't find it, but they waited for an "acquaintance".

On this day, he washed dishes in the back kitchen of a small restaurant.

At noon, when there were many people, the boss temporarily requisitioned him for 20 yuan an hour to work as a food delivery worker.

Approaching a little or so, two people, one tall and one short, came in from outside the door.

Although the tall man didn't know him, the short man's thief-eyed face woke up his nightmare again, which was already accustomed to Zhang Fanyang's identity.

It's so good that he can't die, the two of them actually let him serve the dishes, if the dish is not deep enough, it is estimated that there are not a few left.

After putting the dishes away, he turned around to leave, but was caught by their conversation.

I only heard the tall man ask in a low voice: "Is there any news from those two in the Xingsheng community?" ”

The short and thin man said angrily: "There's a fart, it's been half a year since I moved away, and I didn't leave any clues." ”

Hearing this, the tall one took a sip and said, "Rub, these two things are quite thieves, and they actually escaped before our big event." ”

The short and thin man took a sip of wine and asked, "I remember that these two people are not related to Mrs. Zhao from Donghe Village?" When Mrs. Zhao died, you dug an empty grave one step too late, didn't you startle them. ”

The tall man pondered for a while before nodding and saying, "Don't say it, it could really be the reason."

But if that's the case, these two will be hidden deeply, and I think we'd better give up here and find the next one as soon as possible. ”

The short and thin man was just about to speak, when his mobile phone rang, and he glanced at the text message and said, "A spy reported that there are spiritual power fluctuations in the mountains not far from here. You go around the area of the two of them in the afternoon, and I'll go to see if there are any clues that the spies said. ”

After the two finalized, they didn't talk much about eating anymore.

Zhang Fanyang turned the river and the sea in his heart, and he was no longer calm.

From the content of their conversations, it can be inferred that they are also here to find the two adoptive parents, and if they find them, the adoptive parents may be more than lucky.

No, if the two adoptive parents are really their goal, then even if he dies, he will fight to repay the kindness of these years of parenting.

But he never expected that a person who walked very normally in the city would go up the mountain like a hanging.

He just didn't catch up, and the man disappeared into the woods and was never to be seen again.

"Rub, it looks like a mouse, and it runs more like a mouse."

Zhang Fanyang took a sip secretly, looked around left and right, and had no choice but to run straight in the direction where he disappeared last.

It was getting dark, and the dim light and rising mist blurred his vision.

Just when he passed by a strangely shaped crooked neck tree for the twentieth time, he had to admit that he was fascinated! Road! Finish!

The fog in the forest became more and more thick, and after a while, it was impossible to see the scenery in front of me.

Zhang Fanyang covered his mouth and nose with a T-shirt, but his entire respiratory tract was still hot and painful as if he had inhaled chili powder.

Further on, a soft yellow light was faintly visible.

Zhang Fanyang was overjoyed in his heart, and walked away quickly towards the yellow light.

When I got closer, I realized that it was a house, but the structure was ...... How is it somewhat similar to my aunt's house in my hometown?

Just as he was puzzled, the door of the house was pushed open, and an old face came out of the house, shouting in his direction: "Yangyang, you are here, come into the house with your aunt and sit down." ”

Zhang Fanyang shivered smartly and pinched himself several times. But he pinched himself to doubt life, but the old woman still stood not far away and beckoned to him kindly.

After pinching his thigh again, Zhang Fanyang was sure that he had hit an evil spirit.

He quickly took out a yellow talisman from his bosom and pointed at it with both hands, and shouted at the old woman with some trembling: "Bold monster! Actually turned into a human to confuse this Taoist master! I'm telling you, this Daoist is not easy to mess with! ”

Hearing this, the old woman slowly lowered her hand, covered her mouth and smiled: "Yangyang, you are so funny, you are so naughty at such a young age, what can you do in the future?" ”

Zhang Fanyang was stunned when he heard this, this ...... Isn't it a scene when he didn't dare to go home when he went to his aunt's house to be naughty when he was a child?

Isn't this a monster, but a memory of yourself?

was stunned, the picture in front of him suddenly blurred, and when it was clear again, his aunt was standing in front of the door and said to him with a smile: "Yangyang, go and get along with your classmates, don't worry about your aunt ......"

This is actually the picture of him going to report to the university to see his aunt and grandmother! It was also the last time he saw her!

Looking at the old man's kind face, Zhang Fanyang couldn't help but take a few steps forward.

Unexpectedly, it suddenly darkened in front of him, and two red lights suddenly appeared from the darkness.

In the blink of an eye, my aunt and grandmother changed into a blue-gray hideous face, and pounced on Zhang Fanyang with a blood-red mouth full of fangs......
