After a while, the sky gradually brightened, and in the far east of the sky, a pale red glow stained a large area of the sky.

The two of them sat quietly in the courtyard, no one said anything, and there was silence around them, until a sound of Suo Suo came, Ye Yuanzhou and Du Ruo glanced at each other, knowing that the "ghost" they were waiting for was coming.

After a while, I saw a top of my head exposed outside the courtyard wall of the side courtyard, and it looked like my hair was a little messy, and I didn't comb any buns.

Ye Yuanzhou and Du Ruo looked at the man for a while, and saw that he had been outside the wall and no longer moved, as if he was watching something, and did not dare to come in rashly.

"This brother!" Ye Yuanzhou waited for a while and decided to speak first, "Thank you Brother Ren for your help last night and timely reminder, so that we could avoid a disaster!"

I just don't know if this benevolent brother is willing to show up, so let's say thank you in person! ”

The head outside the wall moved, and a hoarse voice came from the other side of the wall: "I would like to meet you...... It's just that...... I'm just afraid you'll be shocked to see me. ”

"Don't worry, none of us are cowardly, just show up this brother!" Du Ruo opened his mouth and shouted to the people on the other side of the wall.

Hearing this, the "ghost" outside the wall seemed to be encouraged, and slowly walked out from the other side of the wall and walked into the door of the side courtyard.

The visitor was dressed in a crumpled white tunic with a disheveled hair and a skeletal shape, but it was clearly a man.

He walked into the courtyard, cautiously came to the two of them, raised his hand, and with a slight tremble, lifted the hair that had been covering him and lifted it up, revealing the face hidden underneath.

Although Du Ruo boasted that he was very bold, he couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw that face for the first time.

What a face that is! He was already thin and didn't look like a man, and the entire half of his face was covered with hideous scars, which looked very terrifying.

Not to mention at night, even if you walk outside in broad daylight, if you really meet someone who is more timid, I am afraid you will be scared.

The "ghost" was also very nervous, and turned his face slightly, covering the scarred half of his face with his long messy hair.

Du Ruo's gaze always fell on the face of the "ghost", and his expression became more and more calm: "Thanks to Brother Tai's help last night, otherwise Du would probably not have the life to sit here and talk to you today."

If I'm not mistaken, Brother Tai should be the eldest young master of this family, Zong Youlin, right?

Did you show up to see us today because you were burdened with the grievances of your family, and I hope that someone can understand what happened back then and help you avenge your grievances? ”

The "ghost" was stunned, as if he didn't expect Du Ruo to guess his identity so accurately, and suddenly his body shook, and he didn't care if his face was hideous and terrifying, so he knelt down with a plop.

"The two adults and gentlemen are open-minded, and they don't care about my previous actions, which makes me really ashamed!

I didn't know what the two of you came from, but I thought they were the kind of people who listened to the wind and the rain and ran to my house to have fun, so I thought about scaring you and scaring you away.

Later, when I heard the words of this Lord Du by the window at night, I couldn't calm down in my heart for a long time, and I had the courage to show up today, just to ask the two adults to make decisions for the old and young who died unjustly for our clan! ”

"We have heard some rumors about your sect's family, but there are rumors outside, and they are all some gods and ghosts, so we can't believe it.

We have no way of knowing what the truth is, but if you say that you have a grievance today, you still need to tell us about the twists and turns in it. Du Ruo did not refuse Zong Youlin's request.

Yu is public and private, whether it is whether he kindly reminded himself before and let himself escape, or the strange situation of the Zong family, which is full of deaths, she can't do anything about this matter.

Even if she is just a Songzhou Sima, she doesn't have the right to meddle in affairs in this Yuzhou, but this matter is related to the Zong family, and she and Ye Yuanzhou came to Yuzhou this time to carry the holy order and come to Yuzhou for the truth behind this murderous mansion.

Although the emperor may not know what the clan family is, in the final analysis, this matter is not beyond the scope of this task, and it is not impossible to intervene if he wants to interfere.

As soon as Zong Youlin heard Du Ruo say this, he immediately fell to the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Don't do that!" Du Ruo wanted to reach out to stop his kowtowing action, but the strength on his body was still a little weak.

Seeing this, Ye Yuanzhou on the side stopped her and went over to pull Zong Youlin up from the ground.

"We do have the heart to help you, but it's hard to say whether this matter can really help in the end, and you don't have to thank you so early." Ye Yuanzhou's attitude towards him was also very kind.

Zong Youlin was a little excited, and after a while, he was finally able to speak, telling Du Ruo and Ye Yuanzhou everything he had personally experienced back then.

At that time, he accompanied his wife to his father-in-law's house to celebrate his birthday and provincial relatives, and when he went, the journey was very smooth, and he was warmly welcomed when he arrived at Yue's house.

During the period of living in Yue's house, the father-in-law treated him very well, and the husband and wife lived for many days, and when it was time to leave for Tonghe County, it was time to leave for Tonghe County, but because the mother was reluctant to leave her mother's house, she cried and cried, and Zong Youlin was soft-hearted, so she agreed to stay for a few more days.

In order to worry about his parents at home, he also wrote a letter to his family and asked his father-in-law's family to send it on his behalf.

Finally, after staying for some time, the husband and wife finally reluctantly set off to return home, and at first the journey was smooth and smooth, about three days of driving, and on the fourth day there was an accident.

When they passed through a mountain forest with no village in front of them and no shops in the back, the coachman said that he wanted a small relief, so he parked the carriage on the road and never returned.

Zong Youlin and the lady were waiting in the car, and they couldn't wait for the coachman to come back for a long time, so they had to get out of the car to find someone, and while walking, they heard movement behind them, thinking that their mother was waiting in the car alone and was afraid, so she came to catch up with her, and was about to turn back to talk to her, when she was hit hard in the back of her head.

This blow was very heavy, Zong Youlin lost consciousness all of a sudden, and when he came to his senses again, he was lying on the rocky beach of a river, half of his face was hot and painful.

In other words, at that time, there was no place in his body that was not painful, and even half of his body was still soaked and washed by the cold and turbulent river.

At that moment, all he could feel was the pain of life being worse than death, and the boundless chaos.

I don't know who I am, I don't know where I am, I don't even know if I'm alive or if I've gone to hell.
