Predecessors

The summer rains are frequent, and the river section becomes wide and narrow, sometimes rushing and sometimes slow.A pitch-black boat slowly rowed across the lake, silently walking through the night like a ghost, leaving almost no trace.

A beam of dim starlight shone into the cabin through the window, and the man in the wheelchair looked at the river peacefully, his face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were bleak.

Zhao Liu's tone was tinged with anxiety, "Master, your complexion doesn't look very good today, is your old illness recurring?"

An imperceptible blush appeared on He Xu's pale face, "Today... I accidentally ate my stomach."

Zhao Liu was stunned for a moment, then said, "Did someone poison the master?"

Why bother coughed feignedly, and changed the subject, "I'm fine, have you got any results from the investigation you were asked to investigate?"

Zhao Liu then reported the findings of the past few days one by one.

After listening, He You was stunned, "I didn't expect Wang Ji to use this method to stay by Lin Yi's side.

"Master, it is despicable for Wang Ji to intentionally beat herself to death so that she can stay in the world."

The shadows of the trees whirled like leaves, and the light in the cabin flickered for a while, and then went out quickly.

He Xu coughed a few times in pain, feeling disturbed by some emotion in his heart, embedded in his life that was powerless to hesitate.

"Wang Ji, you're delusional about being able to reunite with each other, but I'm going to let you be overwhelmed."

Since the white shirt moved in, he took the initiative to take on the task of taking the fat black man to school.

To be honest, the black fat man doesn't like the white shirt to pick him up.

There are two main reasons.

One is that the white shirt talks a lot.Along the way, the two kept walking, and the white shirts kept talking.

The white shirt tried to provoke the relationship between the black fat man and Lin Yi, "Don't always rely on your uncle, you should make up your own mind."

The fat black man became unhappy, and attributed the white shirt to the white-eyed wolf, "You live in my uncle's house, eat my uncle's house, and now you want to turn against my uncle?"

Bai Shirt rolled his eyes and quickly changed the subject, "Your schoolbag is really heavy. There must be a lot of books. How about I help you carry them."

Fatty Hei refused without hesitation, "No, uncle said to do his own thing."

When he reached the school gate, the white shirt was still reluctant to leave, shaking his hand like a dog's tail, "Xiao Hei, see you after school."

The black fat man ran away quickly.

The second is that there are too many things in white shirts, and they always do things that make the black fat man unintelligible.

One day, the two passed a toy store.The white shirt accidentally saw a simulated toy sword, and forced the black fat man into it.

The white shirt shoved the sword into the fat man's hand, and enthusiastically taught him to make gestures, "Come on, little black, Uncle Bai will teach you how to hold a sword."

The fatty black threw the sword back into the white shirt, "I don't want to learn. Uncle will scold you."

The white shirt was not discouraged, he made a few neat moves with the toy sword, and explained carefully, "This is called Jade Maiden Walking. If the opponent strikes from above, first catch the opponent's wrist with the left hand, and step forward with the left foot to complete the attack." Lunge to the left, change the direction of the sword, and hit the opponent's chest."

The owner of the toy store looked at the white shirt who was swinging vigorously with the toy sword, and unceremoniously drove them both out of the store, "Go and play, don't affect my business."

The fat black man pulled his angry white shirt, covered his face and ran away.

As soon as the fat man put his schoolbag on the table, the head teacher walked into the classroom, and the fat man heaved a sigh of relief: it was so dangerous that he was almost late.

Looking at the immature faces in the room, Teacher Wu couldn't help sighing when he thought of the bad news that came last night, "My friends, there were bad guys who did bad things in Fangcun yesterday, but the police uncle hasn't caught them yet. Stay. You have to be careful on the way from school, you know?"

"Understood." The whole room replied in a childish voice.

Teacher Wu walked out of the classroom, unable to hide the sadness in his heart anymore.This general "bad thing" really can't cover the tragedy of last night: the entire Fang Village was slaughtered, more than 200 people in Fang Village, and none of them survived.

The black fat man quietly pulled Wang Ji who was buried in his sleep, "Hey, I'm up."

Wang Ji raised his head alertly, with a murderous look in his eyes.Fatty Hei didn't know it, he just thought the stupid hair on Wang Ji's head was funny. "What did you do last night, so sleepy?"

Wang Ji restrained his murderous aura, and lay down on the table again, "Don't disturb me to sleep."

Fatty Hei felt bored, and was so focused on how to make Wang Ji take care of himself that he forgot the teacher's instructions just now.

Something happened in Fangcun, and people from the government quickly came to block the massacre.But there is no impenetrable wall in the world.The news quickly spread throughout the nearby large and small villages.

Baishan walked back and forth in the yard frowning, "An accident happened in Fangcun."

Yisheng Zhenjun picked up a grape from the ceramic tray, peeled it slowly, and put it in his mouth.

Bai Shan raised his hand and slapped the freshly peeled grapes Yisheng Zhenjun had just peeled on the ground, emphasizing again, "Something happened in Fangcun."

Yisheng Zhenjun licked his juice-soaked fingers in his mouth, his eyes were as lazy as a cat's, "I'm out of mana, so it's useless to tell me."

Baishan went to look for Lin Yi again, "Something happened in Fangcun." Lin Yi was watering the spider plant.The temperature has been high these few days, and the leaves of Chlorophytum have been scorched, and they look listless.Lin Yi stared at the few dead leaves with pity, turning a deaf ear to Bai Shan's words.

Bai Shirt raised his voice, trying to attract Lin Yi's attention, "This is definitely not the work of ordinary humans. If we start from Fangcun and follow the clues, we will be able to find out the power behind it."

Lin Yiwen politely refused, "The white-clothed immortal, Lin has meager strength, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do to help."

The white shirt persuasively persuaded, "Mr. Lin, you have stayed in the human world for more than 1000 years, and now something happened in the human world, you can't just ignore it?"

"I don't want to care."

Bai Shirt complained, can we still have a good chat.

Bai Shirt failed to do the ideological work of two people in a row, and went back to the room depressed.While packing his luggage, he cursed, "You don't care about me."

The fat man waited at the school gate for a long time, but he didn't see the white shirt coming to pick him up, so he went home by himself.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw the white shirt leaving the door with a bag on his back, and asked in confusion, "Uncle Bai, why didn't you come to pick me up today?"

Bai Shirt's eyes lit up, as long as he kidnapped the fat man, would he still worry that Lin Yi wouldn't follow?

"Xiao Hei, Uncle Bai is going to investigate the case, do you want to come along?"

The fat man shook his head resolutely, "No, uncle won't let me go out alone at night."

The white shirt said silently, "General, I'm sorry." He tapped the fat man on the forehead, and the fat man passed out immediately.He quietly carried the fat black man on his shoulders and walked away.

Lin Yi came out from the backyard, and saw a white note floating at the door: Help your nephew, visit Fangcun, remember to save food.

After the black fat man woke up, he found himself standing on a piece of bare land.This place seems to have been burned by a fire, the ground is reddish brown, there is no grass growing, the place is full of scars, and the air is filled with a burning smell.

The fat black man yelled in fear, "Uncle, where are you?" The white shirt heard his call, and hurried back to him, "Uncle Bai is here, don't be afraid."

The fat man was puzzled, "I'm clearly back at home, so why did I appear here so well?"

The white shirt avoided answering, and he pointed to the front for the fat black man to follow him.Fatty Hei looked around and saw no one else, so he had no choice but to follow.

Bai Shirt lit a match and carefully observed the traces left on the ground.There is a shallow rolling mark on the ground, which should be left by a wheel with little pressure.The traces of the wheels continued for a while, and then suddenly disappeared.

The fat black man watched the white shirt gesticulating on the ground boredly, sat down on a tree stump, and kicked the mud on the ground with his feet.

The white shirt walked along the rolling mark for a while. The width of the mark is narrow and the depth is relatively shallow. It cannot be the mark of a car passing by. At the same time, the two marks are parallel and the distance is not large, so it cannot be left by a bicycle.So, what other tools can leave such marks on the ground?

Bai Shan had an idea, it was a wheelchair!

The scene of the man pushing the wheelchair appeared in front of the white shirt.The width and depth of the rolling marks on the ground are almost the same. It can be imagined that he is pushing the wheelchair and watching the tragedy in the village, with a quiet smile, appreciatively looking at his own achievements.

He watched the village burn to ashes in the raging fire, and left happily, the traces on the ground stopped at this moment.

Fatty Hei sat on the tree stump and fell asleep. He was sleepy and hungry, and he didn't know when Uncle Bai would finish his work.A cloud of black mist suddenly surged up from the ground, wrapping tightly around Fatty Hei's ankles like a snake, and he was sucked into the black mist before he could call for help.

As the white shirt walked further inside, a strange feeling arose spontaneously.The trees and grass in the village were burned all over, leaving obvious brown scorched marks on the ground.But hundreds of people in the whole village were killed, but there was not a single charred corpse.The body disappeared.

Why did the man take the body away?What does a dead body mean to him?

Bai Shirt couldn't figure it out, so he had to go back and ask Lin Yi and Yisheng Zhenjun.

"Xiaohei, let's go." Baishan called back.There was no one on the tree stump, and the fat black man was gone.

Bai Shirt panicked. He searched the vicinity several times, but he still didn't find the shadow of the fat black man.He immediately went back to Lin's house.

Seeing him coming back alone, Lin Yi was very surprised, "Where's the black fat man?"

Bai Shan suddenly didn't dare to look into Lin Yi's eyes, his face darkened, "It's gone."

Lin Yi sent Lan Er to find Hei Fatty.The white shirt anxiously walked up and down the room.

"When did he disappear?"

"It was there a quarter of an hour ago, and if you don't pay attention, it's gone."

Lin Yi put away the extra bowls and chopsticks, with a calm expression on his face, he didn't seem to care much, "You lost the person, and you will bear the consequences."

Bai Shan stared at Lin Yi in surprise, "Are you not worried about the general's safety at all?"

"Is it useful to worry? I didn't lose the person." Lin Yi went to the sink to wash the dishes.

Bai Shirt was so angry that he reached out and turned off the faucet.The running water stopped, and Lin Yi's hands soaked in the basin were covered with oil.

"You don't even know what the general did for you?"

"All I know is that he slapped me and pushed me off the fairy seat."

Bai Shan looked at Lin Yi coldly, "Believe me, he has already paid much more than a palm." Bai Shan ran out the door, and he had to find the general by himself.

Yisheng Zhenjun handed the rubber gloves to Lin Yi, "You forgot to put on the gloves."

Lin Yi looked at his greasy hands and felt irritated.He couldn't help but wonder where the fat black man went.He hasn't eaten yet, so he must be very hungry.
