Chapter 3 The Third Uncle

Every time I landed, the soles of my feet felt like they were pressed against a layer of soft cotton, which was shaky and unreal. And the scenery in front of me also became a little erratic at this time, the road under my feet, the trees in front of me, all like reflections in the water, I moved, they drifted with it.

As I got closer to the tree, I saw by the moonlight that it was coated with a layer of grease, and the slippery luster I had seen before was reflected by them.

The tree in front of me didn't know how many years it had lived, its trunk was frighteningly thick, its roots arching out of the ground and spreading in all directions, and the grease that stuck to the tree slowly ran down the bark and soaked into the soil near the roots.

Now I was less than two meters away from it, and I saw a piece of glue in front of me vibrating slightly, one time urgently, one slow, and under the glue layer, there seemed to be a beating heart.

When he was about to walk to the old tree, a shout suddenly came from in the distance: "Who let you enter the battle in advance?" Get out! โ€

I moved my eyes and looked in the direction where the voice came from, and I saw an unkempt man standing behind the old tree, he stared at me and Boss Lu with a pair of eyes, his eyes were full of anger, as if he was going to eat us in one bite.

I opened my mouth towards him, but I couldn't speak, he frowned sharply, and then rushed towards the two of us.

He ran so fast that he was in front of me in the blink of an eye, and before I could react to what was going on, I felt my belly sink and he knocked me to the ground.

This guy looks like a beggar who has not had enough to eat for many years, but the flesh on his body is very hard, and his strength is beyond imagination.

But strange to say, after being hit by him for such a moment, I was able to control my body again, and the touch on the ground became very real, completely missing the soft feeling I had before.

When I fell to the ground, Boss Lu was also thrown out by me, I coughed while looking at him, and I saw him lying face down on the ground, not moving.

The beggar quickly ran to Boss Lu, took a closer look at Boss Lu's situation, and then frowned: "Looking at his age, why don't you have any mental power on your body?" โ€

After speaking, he put Boss Lu on his shoulder, turned around and pulled me up, and ran in the direction of the field.

As he ran, he looked in the direction of the old tree from time to time, and I saw that his face was full of sadness, and I didn't know what he was thinking.

As soon as he entered the hurdle in the field, he picked up speed so violently that I had to exert almost all my strength to keep up with him.

You must know that he is still carrying Boss Lu on his shoulders, it is more than 200 pounds of fat, when I carried Boss Lu before, let alone running, I felt very difficult to walk faster, and then looked at the beggar in front of him, his steps were extremely light when he ran, and he didn't seem to feel the weight on his shoulders at all.

He dragged me all the way to a small mud house at the edge of the field.

This earthen house must have been newly built not long ago, and the soil on the walls still has a little moisture.

After entering the door, he put Boss Lu on the bed, took out a piece of candy from his pocket, peeled off the candy wrapper, and stuffed it into Boss Lu's mouth.

Boss Lu seemed to be stimulated by something, his body trembled violently twice, the beggar frowned, and then slapped Boss Lu's neck, Boss Lu immediately quieted down, and snored within a few seconds.

can still snore, which means that there is no big problem with Boss Lu, and half of my hanging heart has finally fallen.

After that, the beggar took another piece of candy out of his pocket and raised his chin at me: "This thing tastes bad, bear with it." โ€

I was so confused that I didn't think much of it, so I peeled off the icing and stuffed what looked like toffee into my mouth.

At first, I thought it was a piece of toffee, but when it came into contact with my saliva, it immediately emitted an extremely strong bitter smell, which first spread to the base of my tongue, and then quickly invaded my internal organs, making me nauseous.

I was about to vomit it, but the beggar seemed to know what I was going to do, and as soon as I had this thought, he waved his hand at me: "Don't vomit! This is the Shouyang candy of the Soul Village, which is expensive! โ€

I looked at him with a frown, and he also stared at me with a frown, and after a long time, he asked me, "Which sect are you from, why did you enter the formation in advance?" โ€

I didn't come back to my senses for a while: "What...... What do you mean? โ€

His brow furrowed even tighter: "Aren't you here to break the formation?" โ€

I was confused: "Break what?" โ€

He touched his chin and looked at me very confused.

Being stared at like this all the time made me feel very uncomfortable, so I shifted my gaze to Boss Lu.

After a while, he asked me again, "Which sect are you from?" โ€

I scratched my head: "What sect?" What do you mean? โ€

He asked in a different way: "What the hell are you two doing, what are you doing here?" โ€

I looked at Boss Lu and looked at him again: "We are from a furniture store, passing by Mabutun, and wanted to eat fried chicken, but the car broke down halfway, no, I met a ghost on the way...... Encountered a ghost hitting the wall. โ€

At that time, I was in a mess, and I didn't know how to describe what had happened, but I knew that the car had broken down and that I had encountered something dirty.

When he heard my words, he seemed very irritated: "Then you tell yourself, how did you get to the tree?" โ€

I said, "Our car broke down halfway, and Boss Lu had a high fever again, so I wanted to take him into the village and find a doctor to treat him." As I walked, I saw the tree appear in front of me......"

"Chicken feathers!" He interrupted me impatiently: "It's not too much to talk nonsense!" โ€

Speaking of this, he suddenly raised his hand and pressed his palm on my chest, and after a moment, he raised his head again and asked me, "Are you a member of the Yan family?" โ€

Hearing his words, I couldn't help but be shocked, and immediately asked him: "Are you talking about Zhang, or Yan?" โ€

Although Boss Lu usually calls me "Zhang Ruofei", my surname was actually "ไป‰" in my early years, but I changed my surname when I was nine years old, and now almost no one knows my real surname except for my aunt.

But how did he know? I looked at his face closely, and the more I looked at it, the more strange it felt, and I was sure that I had never seen him before.

At this time, he became impatient again: "Don't pretend to be stupid with me. Guy, a single person, a few, do you understand, I'm talking about a couple, your old family's wife. What kind of family are you from, what are you doing here, and who invited you here? Isn't it a mess! โ€

This person spoke inexplicably, which made my already chaotic mood even more chaotic, and I couldn't come back to my senses for a while, so I looked at him in a daze and didn't reply.

When he saw that I didn't reply for a long time, he stretched out his hand, first pressed my pulse with his index finger, and then pressed his thumb on the back of my hand, and after a while, he said to me angrily: "Who would plant so much evil in himself except the old man's family?" โ€

I broke away from his hand and asked him in a daze, "Did you recognize the wrong person?" I've never seen you before. โ€

He frowned fiercely: "It's strange that you haven't seen me, I stayed at your old man's house for a whole year last year, how could you not have seen me?" Let me tell you, don't play with me, what's your name, and what line of family do you belong to? โ€

"My original name was Yu Ruofei," I responded, "but I have been living with my second uncle since I was nine years old, and I changed my surname to Zhang at that time." โ€

His brows furrowed even tighter, staring at me, but after a while, he asked me again, "Your second uncle's surname is Zhang?" โ€

I said, "My second uncle and I are actually not related by blood, because in the early years, my father and he often studied the formula together, and the relationship between the two was very good, and I called him 'second uncle' since I was a child......."

As I was talking, the beggar seemed to suddenly think of something, leaned towards me, looked carefully at my palm, and stared at my face again, his eyes widened and widened, like a ghost, I was stared at by him and panicked, and quickly twisted his face to the side.

After a while, he grabbed my hand again, looked closely at my calloused palm and the five hard bumps on the back of my hand, and asked, "Have you practiced the style?" โ€

This time, I nodded.

He asked again, "What are you practicing?" โ€

It took me a long time to respond: "That's it...... When I was a child, I practiced poking and flipping, and when I was eleven or twelve years old, I practiced iron wire boxing. โ€

He suddenly became agitated: "Who taught you?" โ€

I replied in a confused voice: "My father taught me to poke my foot flip, and the wire fist is my second uncle'......"

Before I could finish speaking, he interrupted me in a hurry: "Is your father's name Feng Yu?" The second uncle you are talking about, is it your father's brother, named Zhang Zuye? What about the two of them, where are they now? โ€

This completely confused me, he was all right, but my dad disappeared ten years ago, and my second uncle also died in a car accident a few years ago, and looking at the anxious look he looked like when he spoke, it seems that he has a deep relationship with my dad and his second uncle.

But since the relationship is deep, why didn't he know that my father had disappeared a long time ago, and he didn't know that his second uncle had passed away, and asked me where they were.

My mind was completely a pot of porridge, and I didn't speak for a long time, he seemed very anxious, and shook my shoulder vigorously: "Where the hell did they go?" โ€

After pondering for a while, I still responded to his question: "My dad disappeared ten years ago, and I don't know where he went, second uncle he...... He passed away three years ago. โ€

Ten years have passed, my father has not been heard from, I don't even know why he disappeared suddenly, although I still don't know who this beggar in front of me is, but I always feel that maybe he knows the reason for my father's disappearance, and I don't want to let go of this opportunity.

Hearing my words, his eyes widened: "Second brother is dead? How did he die? โ€

I said, "Car accident." โ€

He was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "Car accident? โ€

I nodded: "Car accident." โ€

He paced anxiously in front of me with his hands behind his back, and as he went, he said, "How is this possible, how is this possible?" Car accident? Something is wrong, it's definitely not a car accident. โ€

I stalked my neck and asked him tentatively, "Do you know my father and my second uncle?" โ€

He stopped, stared at me for a while, then approached me and said, "My name is Sun Chuansheng, you should have heard of me, right?" โ€

This time he spoke with a certain anticipation in his eyes, and I don't know what he was thinking.

Seeing that I shook his head, the light in his eyes dimmed, but he said: "Your father, Zhang Zuye, and me, we were the best brothers back then." I'm your third uncle! โ€

I looked at him and my heart was numb.

First, I met a ghost while walking at night, and now suddenly such a person who has never seen before, not only knows what my surname is, but also knows my father, and now what do you say, he is my third uncle.

Everything happened so suddenly that I wasn't prepared for anything.

Before I could respond, he suddenly gave me a bear hug: "I've been looking for you for more than ten years, but I can count on finding you!" When did you come back, and did your family know that you were back? โ€

I don't even know what he's talking about, and I don't know how to answer.

What the hell does the old man do, listen to what he means, I have other relatives?

I still looked at him stunned, and he asked me again: "Have you not been in contact with the old couple all these years?" โ€

Every time I encounter this kind of unacceptable thing, I will be inexplicably angry in my heart, and now it is the same, looking at his complicated eyes, I am a little anxious: "What are you talking about, what kind of family!" What a mess! โ€

These words were a bit heavy, but he didn't mind at all, and just asked me: "You haven't contacted your family, and they haven't contacted you?" โ€

I couldn't suppress the anger in my heart, and shouted again: "What do you mean by talking without a beginning or an end?" โ€

He patted me on the shoulder, and after a long sigh, sat down sullenly on the edge of the bed.

I was restless, and I didn't know what I should do now, so I just stood there stupidly, feeling a little helpless.

At this time, he let out a long breath of turbidity and said to me sullenly: "Over the years, the old family has been looking for you, but more than ten years have passed, and you have no news at all. โ€

As he spoke, a smile appeared on his face again: "Don't talk about this, oops, it's good to be back, it's good to be back." I didn't expect to meet you here, it's all providence. โ€

He looked at me, the smile on his face slowly unfolding, and in his smile, there was a warmth and kindness that I couldn't resist.

Originally, I thought that after the death of my second uncle, such a smile could only exist in my memories.
