He looked at the bowl of white rice, tears running down his cheeks and dripping on the rice, as if the white rice was more disgusting to him than the earthworms under the soil.

This scene made Niu Er stunned, he looked at Tie Dan'er's face full of tears and the plate of food he couldn't eat, and the pain in his heart couldn't be expressed in words.

He held his forehead, sat on the ground weakly, looking at the son he loved and hated, and the inner entanglement and pain reached its peak at this moment.

Ironically, his son is no longer the carefree child he remembers, and he can't do anything for him.

He could only look at him, as he treated the earthworms as if they were a delicacy, and at the suffering he suffered in this world.

However, he still can't accept the fact that his son will become like this, and he can't accept that the world will be so unfair to his son.

Tie Dan'er's body was emaciating every day, and his skin was close to his bones, looking extremely weak, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

His body also began to shrink, like a seedling pulled out of the soil, withered without the support of water.

Looking at Tie Dan'er's weakening body, Niu Er's heart seemed to be cut by a knife, and the pain was incomparable. He knew that he couldn't let Iron Egg go hungry anymore, no matter how much he couldn't accept reality.

So, on a cloudy dusk, he walked to the vegetable garden with a shovel and began to dig up earthworms under the soil.

Tie Dan'er looked at the dish of earthworms brought to him, and the light in his pupils instantly burned.

He picked one up in his thin palm, put it in his mouth, and devoured it.

A satisfied smile bloomed on his face, a smile that Niu Er hadn't seen in a long time.

"Dad, thank you, I love you the most."

Tie Dan'er's voice was soft and grateful, as if he was expressing deep love for those closest to him.

Hearing this, Niu Er's heart contracted painfully, as if it was held by an invisible hand.

His son, his once naughty leather monkey, would never say such a thing.

But now, he heard such words from the mouth of this strange and familiar child, and his heart was full of powerlessness and despair.

Niu Er's eyes became more and more gloomy, and when he looked at Tie Dan'er, the malice and ferocity in his two eyes made it impossible to look directly.

His heart was full of contradictions and struggles, he loved the child, but he couldn't accept his strangeness.

Looking at Niu Er's eyes full of malice and ferocity, Tie Dan'er's heart began to be full of fear.

He began to avoid Niu Er's gaze, and even began to fear his approach.

He would hide in a corner, hugging himself, as if he was guarding against something.

Darkness fell, and the silent moonlight filled the village.

This quiet night, however, heralds an impending storm.

On this seemingly peaceful night, Tie Dan'er got up to go to the toilet and walked out of the house carefully, at this moment, he has no liveliness during the day, just a child who is afraid of the dark.

The silence of the night was broken by the sound of Iron Egg's staggering footsteps, and he pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, and the moonlight reflected his thin figure, reflecting the shadows dappled in shadows. He looked at the door, his eyes full of innocent curiosity and doubt.

Niu Er stood there, like a statue of sin, his eyes were cold and solemn. The ghostly moonlight shone on his face, making his eyes even more eerie.

"Daddy?" Tie Dan'er shouted in confusion, his voice small and trembling, like a trapped rabbit.

Niu Er didn't answer, just stared at him, the light in his eyes was as fierce as a hungry wolf. His arm slowly raised, and a large, hideous hand seemed to stretch out its claws to the iron egg.

Tie Dan'er's heartbeat accelerated instantly, and he tried to escape, but his feet couldn't move as if they were filled with lead. The next moment, Niu Er's hand grabbed Tie Dan'er's neck.

Tie Dan'er's pupils dilated instantly, and panic and helplessness filled his eyes. He struggled, trying to break free from Niu Er's grasp, however, his strength was weak and small, like an earthworm struggling in the soil.

His face began to turn pale, and his hands waved weakly, as if trying to grasp something. Then, his face began to turn burnt yellow, followed by purple-red, and finally, his eyes lost their brilliance, and his body collapsed weakly in Niu Er's hands.

Niu Er looked at the iron egg in his hand, and the anger and doubt in his eyes gradually subsided, replaced by a deep emptiness and indifference.

His hand slowly let go, and Iron Dan'er's body slid limply to the floor with a dull thud.

Niu Er looked at the iron egg in his hand, and the malice and anger in his eyes had subsided, replaced by emptiness and indifference.

He put down the body of Iron Egg and walked out, leaving an empty room and a silent night.

This peaceful night is broken by a tragedy, and the death of Iron Dan'er plunges this peaceful village into an atmosphere of weirdness and irony.

And Niu Er, he lost his favorite son, and also lost his humanity, he became a cold and cruel person, and there was no more kindness and compassion in his heart, only indifference and pain remained.

On this eerie night, Niu Er's heart is swallowed up by darkness, his soul sinks in pain and sorrow, and his world is no longer colorful, only black and white.

Niu Er's obsession did not dissipate because of this incident, but became more and more determined and paranoid.

He decided to get the iron egg back no matter what the cost!!

Over the years, he has tried many crooked and evil methods.

He began to search for sorcerers, divination, talismans, and even various legends and secret methods about the recall of souls.

In the process, he kept struggling, his expression was hideous and fierce, as if every cell in his body was frantically struggling for this goal.

One day, Niu Er met a wandering wizard who he heard that this wizard had some magical methods that might help him solve his problems.

So he knelt before the wizard and cried and begged him to help him find his son.

His tears fell on the dust, mixed with despair and pain.

The wizard looked at Niu Er, sighed deeply, and then said in a deep and sympathetic voice: "I can understand your pain, but trying to find the deceased through evil spells will only bring greater disaster. ”

When Niu Er heard this, he felt that his heart was hit hard by a hammer, and he looked at the wizard sadly, and muttered repeatedly: "I just want to see him, just one look." ”

The wizard looked at Niu Er, his expression became complicated, he knew that this man really loved his son, but this love had become a weapon to destroy himself.
