"Otherwise, I'll send you down the road, and we'll go our separate ways."

"Oh."

Regarding Chen Shiyi's words, Yang Zetao didn't refuse or say anything else, just nodded lightly and arranged with her.

It was noon, the sun was shining, it was very hot, and the chirping of birds could be faintly heard all around.

Even so, Chen Shiyi still felt a sense of fear for this place.

I don't know if it's because I've experienced too many weird things in the past few days, Chen Shiyi really feels that this place has no good impression except for the gloomy atmosphere and the gloomy atmosphere.

The two of them went around the hill for a while, and finally looked at the flat road below, thinking that it would take time to get around, so they simply copied the path and slid down the hillside.

After all, Chen Shiyi came to this place after making enough preparations, so he happened to be wearing a simple set of sportswear, so naturally there was no hindrance, but Yang Zetao was a child after all, and this hillside was also steep, and small pebbles slipped down at any time, either accidentally splashing his eyes or hitting his body, Chen Shiyi carefully slid down by himself, and carefully escorted Yang Zetao.

The two of them finally landed safely on the flat road, and Chen Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

The place stretched along a road, surrounded by a few fields of crops, but it was very sparsely populated, and not a single person was seen toiling in the fields or a single car passing by.

"You used to come to Grandma's place, and there was no shuttle, haven't you ever met a driver like that?"

Chen Shiyi covered her eyes with her hands and looked around, the bright sun was too dazzling, she couldn't open her eyes a little shaky, squinted slightly and looked around, and asked with some curiosity.

"There is a shuttle bus to the pass, but it takes more than an hour or two to walk back from here, but my dad has a car, and every time my dad drives us."

Speaking of this, Yang Zetao suddenly became silent, and said very sadly: "But since my grandmother came to our house and didn't know why, I had a fight with my parents, and I haven't seen my grandmother again." ”

Chen Shiyi looked at Yang Zetao's pitiful appearance, it was really pitiful, and he wanted to reach out and touch his head to comfort him, but in the end he stopped, they were now at an intersection, Chen Shiyi smiled and said to him: "Okay, aren't you here now, let's start to separate now, you hurry up and find your grandmother and surprise her." ”

"Then sister, aren't you going with me?"

Chen Shiyi shook his head, ignoring the reluctance in Yang Zetao's eyes, Chen Shiyi thought that he was a child after all, and he was frightened by yesterday's events, just because she gave him a sense of security, so he relied on her.

"You have to put away the rune paper that my sister gave you, and you will use it to deal with anything when you encounter something, remember?"

Chen Shiyi squatted down, patted Yang Zetao, and reminded with concern.

Maybe he made Chen Shiyi feel sympathetic, so Chen Shiyi had a different kind of concern for Yang Zetao.

Yang Zetao lowered his head and responded sullenly, but he was very sensible and did not make trouble with Chen Shiyi, he knew that he and Chen Shiyi were originally two strangers who met in Pingshui, Chen Shiyi was able to help him so much, he was already benevolent and righteous, and he was not qualified to ask Chen Shiyi to pay anything to him.

Chen Shiyi glanced at him, and originally wanted to say that if there was a chance, they would be able to meet in the future, but in the end she kept her mouth shut, after all, she didn't know what the chance of life and death was when she went, and whether she could come back alive was a question.

In the end, Chen Shiyi turned around and walked away, Yang Zetao looked up at Chen Shiyi, who was getting farther and farther away, there was no sadness or joy on his face, and that kind of expression didn't look like what a teenager should have.

On the contrary, there are some mature and steady weirdness,

and his small figure, it doesn't match at all.

If Chen Shiyi first felt that the old man was a charlatan, cheating on food, drinking, and money, after experiencing that strange incident, Chen Shiyi really felt that this matter was not so simple, for the old man's words, she also believed most of it, thinking about the rows of incense candles lit in the store before leaving, Chen Shiyi's pace couldn't help but speed up even more.

But halfway through, she stopped with some hesitation, the surroundings were too desolate, Chen Shiyi noticed at this time that the side of the mountain wall was growing, wild grass was growing, and there were mottled blood stains splashed on it, which had dried up a lot, and it seemed that it was a long time ago.

Chen Shiyi looked at this scene, her heart was a little unsteady, she jumped loudly, she thought that Yang Zetao would go back alone, and she was a little uneasy.

Although he was given a rune paper, but in this world, people are much more terrible than ghosts, in case he meets some unscrupulous and well-meaning people? Looking at the pool of blood, Chen Shiyi's eyes couldn't help jumping hard, and finally gritted his teeth and turned around to look for Yang Zetao.

If she knew that there was danger, she still left without caring about it, if something really happened to Yang Zetao, Chen Shiyi felt that she might have a bad conscience in her life.

But having said that, since she was a child, Chen Shiyi has lived with her grandparents, and her parents rarely ask about her life, and the living expenses will be handed over to her grandfather on time every month, and her grandparents all treat her as free-range, so it is enough to let her eat and dress warmly.

It may be that human nature is good, so Chen Shiyi's soft-hearted problem has always existed since he was a child.

When Chen Shiyi found Yang Zetao, Yang Zetao was sitting on the bank of a slowly flowing stream, his pants on one leg rolled up, and blood was gurgling on his white and tender skin.

"What's wrong with you?"

Chen Shiyi saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward to check it in fear, she didn't know that the two of them had only been separated for a long time, and Yang Zetao had such a thing happened in an instant, Chen Shiyi was really glad that he came back to find him.

"Sister, why are you back?"

Looking at Chen Shiyi who appeared in front of him, Yang Zetao was a little pleased.

"If I don't come back, will you just sit on the shore all the time?"

Although Chen Shiyi asked with some anger, but his tone couldn't hide his concern, Chen Shiyi took out some first-aid supplies that he had prepared at any time from his backpack, and after detoxifying Yang Zetao, he bandaged them carefully.

"Can you move?"

Chen Shiyi helped Yang Zetao, Yang Zetao gritted his teeth, slowly stood up with some difficulty, tried to move his legs, looked at Chen Shiyi, and smiled softly: "Sister, you see I'm fine." ”

"Well, where is your grandmother's house? I'll send you back. ”

"Sister, you play with me."

Yang Zetao seemed very happy because Chen Shiyi took him back, Chen Shiyi asked about Yang Zetao's injury, it turned out that Yang Zetao had been walking to the road to his grandmother after he separated from her, but he didn't know why, a big fluffy dog suddenly came out, Yang Zetao was afraid of dogs, so he was afraid of running away, and ran to the river but accidentally fell on a hard stone, so there was the scene that Chen Shiyi came back to see.

Chen Shiyi had stayed in the countryside with his grandmother before, and knew that every household in the countryside would basically have a dog to come to see the house, so Chen Shiyi had nothing to doubt about Yang Zetao's statement.

The two of them walked for nearly an hour, and finally stopped in front of a pottery door with a tiled roof, this small house looked like it was built by its own owner, it was a very common kind of simple small earthen house built with tiles, stone and wood in the countryside, but it looked a little dilapidated, it looked as if no one had lived in it for almost many years, the lock of the gate was crooked, Chen Shiyi walked in to take a look, and with a light touch, the lock automatically opened.

"Zetao, didn't you say your grandmother is here? Why haven't you seen your grandmother? ”

“…… My grandmother was in the mountains. ”

"Huh?"

Chen Shiyi turned his head and looked at Yang Zetao, Yang Zetao lowered his head, twisted his fingers, and sobbed a little: "My grandmother is gone, they buried my grandmother on the mountain, but they never came back to pay tribute to my grandmother, never burned paper and incense for my grandmother, I don't know if my grandmother is doing well below." ”

"It's okay Zetao, with me, I'll accompany you to see grandma, okay?"

Chen Shiyi looked at Yang Zetao crying with a broken heart, and that pitiful look made Chen Shiyi's heart almost broken.

After Yang Zetao cried enough, he rubbed his eyes, looked at Chen Shiyi, and said sensibly: "Sister, let's go see grandma tomorrow, it's late today, grandma's cemetery is far away, you must have taken me back today and walked for so long, and I was tired." ”

Listening to Yang Zetao's words, Chen Shiyi was a little sad and rubbed his head, she really couldn't figure it out, how could such a sensible child be so ruthless and let him bear so many pains that should not belong to this age?

Chen Shiyi looked at the current sky, it was sunset outside, scattering a faint afterglow, such a twilight scenery was very beautiful, Chen Shiyi was a little distracted, but a gurgling sound pulled Chen Shiyi back.

Chen Shiyi looked at Yang Zetao, Yang Zetao lowered his head shyly, Chen Shiyi rubbed his head and smiled: "Let's go into the house and see what there is." ”

Saying that, the two of them entered the house, I don't know how long it has been uninhabited, as soon as they entered, there was a burst of dust, Chen Shiyi and Yang Zetao were choked and coughed, Chen Shiyi waved his hand and saw the furnishings in the room clearly.

Very simple furnishings, a big wooden table, a mat bed, a wooden coffee table cabinet, on both sides is a small bedroom, from the left bedroom into the house, is a small stove house, but also placed some unburned firewood, I don't know if it has been no one in the house has lived in the reason, those firewood is a little wet, but it can still be used.

Chen Shiyi found an uneaten handful of cinnamon noodles from the storage cabinet on the side, as well as three eggs, and some sweet potatoes, Chen Shiyi could see that Yang Zetao's grandmother should be a very thrifty person.

After all, in the countryside, eggs are too expensive and luxurious.

Chen Shiyi cleaned up the room and made two bowls of noodles, Chen Shiyi actually didn't know how to cook, but some simple food to fill his stomach could be taken out, probably because he was tired and too hungry for a day, Yang Zetao praised Chen Shiyi for making it delicious.

Chen Shiyi boiled hot water in the evening, and after the two of them washed, Chen Shiyi felt a little tired and wanted to rest well, after all, she had to rush to find the temple tomorrow.

Yang Zetao was very scared, relying on Chen Shiyi, and wanted to sleep with Chen Shiyi, Chen Shiyi saw that Yang Zetao was a child after all, and felt that there was nothing wrong, and he was very careful to let Yang Zetao sleep in the bed, afraid that he would turn over and push Yang Zetao down at night, Chen Shiyi was not honest when he slept honestly, she always knew it.

After a tired day, the two of them quickly fell asleep, and when Chen Shiyi was sleeping soundly, Yang Zetao on the side suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Chen Shiyi's face, with a faint green light flashing in his eyes.

"You said you, why don't you change this problem of soft-heartedness?"

After speaking, Yang Zetao looked ruthless, stretched out his hand, and just wanted to take out Chen Shiyi's heart, Chen Shiyi suddenly opened his eyes, and saw this scene, he was frightened and turned over, and fell to the side of the bed, Yang Zetao saw this, and quickly threw himself down from the bed, Chen Shiyi looked at it, and was so frightened that he instinctively stretched out his hands to protect himself, she still had the talisman drawn by the old man on her hand, and I don't know why, she stayed for so long, it didn't fall, the pattern on her hand emitted a golden light, stabbing at Yang Zetao, Yang Zetao screamed, fell to the side of the bed, and when he came to his senses, Chen Shiyi got up from the ground in embarrassment and was fleeing outside.

Yang Zetao appeared in front of her very quickly, Chen Shiyi was so frightened that he retreated again and again, and looked at Yang Zetao: "You, how did you become like this, why do you want to harm me?" ”

"Chen Shiyi, perhaps, I should call you by your previous name, Lichen?"

"I don't even know what you're talking about."

Chen Shiyi was forced to retreat again and again by Yang Zetao, and she suddenly connected the events of the past few days in her mind, and couldn't help but come to a terrible conclusion, could it be that the person who wanted to harm her was Yang Zetao, the child in front of her?

How can this little kid have such a big ability?

Otherwise, why, what happened to her, why was everything so coincidental?

Just when she thought that she was buried here today, a white shadow suddenly appeared, and in a daze, Chen Shiyi had been tightly hugged by the man in white who suddenly appeared, and escaped from the dangerous house.
