When Xiaobai stepped on the train, it instantly turned into dust all over the sky.

It seems that it comes from nothingness and returns to the space between heaven and earth.

In front of them, only the empty mountains and forests could be seen.

Xiaobai was stunned. Was she doing a disservice?

A good train, so fragile?

Wen Ying took Xiao Bai's hand and said, "It's none of your business. This car is about to break up."

"Then how do we get home?" Xiaobai felt a little aggrieved when he thought about this matter. It was the car that brought them here.

Now, is it possible to ask them to walk back?

The rumble of the plane appeared above their heads.

Helicopter.

The three of them were sitting on the plane. The only one on the plane was the pilot, who was ordered to escort Dr. Wen home.

In less than an hour, the plane arrived at the clinic.

When the three of them got off the plane and returned to the clinic, Uncle Zhang and his wife also came back, calling Wen Ying to take the two children to eat barbecue at home.

Uncle Zhang's yard is not small. The barbecue grill has been set up and the meat and vegetable skewers have been skewered.

The first time Wen Ying saw Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, she felt that they were a little different.

Different from what I saw before, there was some kind of imperceptible aura on his body.

The children were running around in the yard, and when they saw Xiaobai and Sora Mi, they ran over, shouting from their brothers and sisters.

This is Uncle Zhang's only grandson, the sole heir of this generation of the Zhang family.

The child is two years younger than Xiaobai, but already more sensible.

"Auntie, Doudou's body looks good."

Wen Ying looked at Xiao Douding with a smile on her face.

Aunt Zhang also smiled, "Xiaoying, you can really see that this thing was given to me by the old man. After all, this generation of Zhang family is the only one in the family. The old man said that he should start training from an early age."

Although Xiao Douding doesn't seem to understand these things, some spiritual energy has been sealed in his body.

The old man must be looking for a treasure.

"His parents went abroad for work. Not only did I have to take him with me, but when your uncle and I went to the provincial capital some time ago, we left him at a relative's house. Guess what? This kid actually beat him three times. The [-]-year-old baby was beaten!" Aunt Zhang said and laughed.

He obviously thought it was a bit funny, but it did show that the kid had a good physique and wouldn't be bullied.

This is very reassuring for parents.

"Douding is not the one causing trouble. Someone else bullied him, right?"

Aunt Zhang nodded, "Doudou said that brother robbed him of his things and let others bully him. He said that our whole family was nagging. Doudou was unhappy, so he beat him up. But Doudou said, There was an old woman following the brother, but no one else seemed to see it, only him. He also said that the old woman saw him beating the brother and wanted to attack him, but somehow she fell down as soon as she got close to him. . I took out the photos of the deceased elders, and Doudou saw the old lady on them, that is, the mother-in-law of my relative who passed away."

It was originally a worrying thing, but thinking that the man couldn't hurt Doudou, Aunt Zhang naturally stopped worrying.

When Doudou heard that her grandma seemed to be talking about her own affairs, she ran over immediately, "Grandma, I saw several grandparents, uncles and aunts on the road when I left."

"It's also in the photo?" Doudou nodded.

In their place, elderly people and the public usually organize the elderly to take photos together, and they come here once a year.

The deceased person keeps the photo, and those who want it can print it themselves.

So Aunt Zhang’s house also has these photos.

"What are they doing?"

Little Douding tilted his head and roughly said it in his poor language.

These people were standing outside different courtyards, and some of them leaned into the courtyard not knowing what to look at.

Others followed the children in the village.

But so far, nothing harmful has been found.

But the sudden appearance of so many soul bodies is obviously abnormal.

After eating the barbecue, Wen Ying said she would go back tomorrow to see what was going on, and Xiaobai and Kong Jian followed suit.

Xiao Douding pestered her grandma, "Grandma, I want to play with sister Xiaobai and see my brother when I have time."

Aunt Zhang naturally knew that these two people were not ordinary children, and also knew that those souls could not harm Douding, so she agreed.

Back in the clinic, Sora Mi thought that this time he could really stay in the clinic permanently.

Thinking that this is the home of the liger, I feel very happy.

Follow Xiaobai and the two running around.

Wen Ying sat on the chair and looked at the newly cleaned clinic. Needless to say, Aunt Zhang must have cleaned it in advance.

Aunt Zhang said she had something to tell her before the barbecue, but after eating, she forgot about the bean curd.

Let's ask about this tomorrow after reading those things.

Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang must have entered the fog, but the time was short and they don't know what happened.

I guess what Aunt Zhang is going to say is related to this matter.

Xiaobai was familiar with this place. Within two hours of being in the clinic, he took Sora Mi to the street to play.

I just didn't expect that not long after it got dark, those shops would be closed.

Nothing special happened that night.

The next day, after breakfast, Wen Ying went to see what Xiao Douding said. Xiao Bai took Kong Jian and ran away early in the morning, saying they were going to catch birds and fish.

They are all from the same town, but Aunt Zhang's relatives are not really on this street, but in Liujiazhuang, seven miles away.

There is an old willow tree at the entrance of the village of Liujiazhuang, which is said to be a hundred years old, hence the name Liujiazhuang.

On the way here, Wen Ying didn't notice anything different, but when she got close to Liujiazhuang, she could feel the aura that didn't belong here.

Nowadays, she is very sensitive to this kind of atmosphere.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of Liujiazhuang Village, Wen Ying saw this century-old willow tree, with lush branches and dense willow branches hanging down.

Under the willow tree is a table made of stone with traces of time.

Surrounding the table are some irregular stone stools, some large and some small, some high and some low, which seem to be signs of corrosion over time.

At this time, in front of Wen Ying, the stool was full of people.

It's just that these people look much older, and all of them have gray hair. They are sitting together with Zhang's family and Li's family talking about things in the village.

Time has carved traces on their faces. When they saw Wen Ying coming, these old people turned their eyes to Wen Ying as they spoke.

"Should our little flower be this big now? This girl is so pretty."

"Yes, when you left, your little flower was only a few months old, wasn't it? I really envy you that you have so many children and grandchildren."

"Xiuhua, I believe that others envy you, but you only left after having four generations living under the same roof. You are the envy of most people in our village."

"Don't tell me, this girl is really pretty. Whose baby is she?"

When these old people were chatting, they seemed to feel that Wen Ying couldn't see them, and they were so unscrupulous that Wen Ying was almost ready for a partner.

Wen Ying listened and sat down on a big rock, pretending not to see these people.

When I listened to them chatting, they were talking about other people's children in their own family, how the children are doing now, whether they have any future, and so on.

There are also some matters related to marriage, and there is no resentment at all.

This made Wen Ying a little puzzled.

Just when Wen Ying was about to ask a question, several children ran up not far away. The one in front was running and the ones behind were chasing.

I originally thought they were playing, but when the child in the front accidentally tripped over a stone on the ground, the children catching up behind him suddenly started punching and kicking him.

This scene stunned these people, including Wen Ying.

Those people don't seem to understand that beatings should be done quietly.

Even if they couldn't see anyone else, they should see Wen Ying.

Wen Ying stood up and walked over with a serious expression, "Stop! Who allowed you to fight?"

The boys then looked up at Wen Ying. After confirming that they didn't recognize him, they looked at Wen Ying arrogantly, "This is our business, none of your business!"

Wen Ying pulled the beaten child up and asked, "Why did they beat you?"

The beaten boy stared at Wen Ying. He had never seen this man in the village and didn't know who he was, but this man seemed to have saved him?
  "Let him go! We can fight if we want!"

One of them, who seemed to be the leader, scratched his neck and glared at Wen Ying dissatisfied, "If you dare to stop me, I will ask my father to beat you!"

Wen Ying smiled when she heard that she was being threatened.

"Hey, don't hit anyone! You are Liu San's grandson, right? Do you know that you are beating your younger brother?"

The old ladies who wanted to help came over to stop it, but found that they couldn't stop it at all.

These children cannot see them, and they cannot touch these children.

"Are you his brother?" Wen Ying looked at the beaten little boy seriously.

The little boy was a little stubborn, but he still nodded, "That's right, but they said I wasn't and that I was a bastard."

When the word "bastard" was mentioned, the little boy obviously gritted his teeth.

"You are a bastard! My mother said you are a bastard, and your mother is a shameless vixen! She seduced my father!"

"Poor Mian Mian, I went to see him after hearing about this incident. It was clearly the son of Liu San's family who wanted to do something evil to the baby's mother. Why was he called a vixen? It's a pity that I can't testify."

In the mouths of these old ladies that little kids can't see, and from the mouths of these little kids.

Wen Ying basically knew the whole story. The only boy who was beaten was his mother. They all said that there was a lot of trouble in front of the widow, not to mention that the widow was good-looking.

Wen Ying educated the kid who hit him, and after they promised not to bully the little boy again, they let him go.

The little boy who was beaten stood aside without speaking, but looked behind Wen Ying.

Wen Ying looked at him in surprise.

There were only these old ladies behind Wen Ying. Logically speaking, no one in the village could see them.

Although there are some rumors that children can see ghosts when they are young, this is not always the case. It is only possible for people with certain horoscopes at a specific time and date.

Taken together, these requirements are naturally harsh.

"Baby, can you see us?"

The little boy nodded fearfully. He was scared, but now that he had this big sister who helped him, he didn't seem so scared.

It's just that he has never told anyone else that he has been able to see these things since he was a child.

"I didn't expect that someone would see us old ladies. Don't be afraid, little kid, we won't harm you."

"But my pretty sister can also see you."

The little boy looked at Wen Ying, and the old ladies looked at Wen Ying.

Wen Ying, "..."

It's a little embarrassing, but not much.

All the old ladies looked at Wen Ying, their eyes seemed to be filled with resentment.

"Ahem... I was just fascinated by the story..."

"Forget it, let's not argue with you girl. It's fate that we can see each other."

"Then why are you guys here here this time? To meet future generations?"

Everyone was a little confused when they heard Wen Ying's topic.

Why did they return to the village?
  It seems to be for?
  Why can't I remember something clearly?

I clearly remembered it clearly before, but now I can't remember it.

"Ah Lian, why are we back?"

"I don't remember either. It's really strange. We clearly still..."

The old ladies shook their heads and looked at Wen Ying.

They really don't remember.

"People have different paths. Do you want to be here forever, grandma?"

Ever since Wen Ying's last question pulled these people's thoughts out of their minds, the old ladies had become confused.

Now that they heard this question, their minds were confused and they didn't know how to answer.

It's like there should be a choice, but when it's time to use it, I can't remember anything and it's just like it's dusty.

It seems that everyone is a little confused when they think about this issue.

It seems everyone has forgotten.

"My little grandson is back from vacation. I want to go see him."

"My granddaughter brought her boyfriend home, I have to go and check it."

"My little grandson has bought a lot of gifts, and I must have one of them!"

……

In an instant, the group of old people left.

Wen Ying silently watched the group of old people leave, and then glanced at the children who were being bullied.

The child looked up at Wen Ying quietly, as if he didn't know what to say or whether to leave.

"You are too skinny. Remember to exercise every day." The child nodded sharply and asked hesitantly, "Pretty sister, am I going home?"

"How about you take me around your village and settle your wages?"

Although the child was young, he already knew what salary was and readily agreed without even asking how much he would be paid.

The village is neither big nor small, with more than a thousand people living in it.

The children took Wen Ying from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, which took them forty minutes. There were still some mountainous areas that they did not go to.

"Beautiful sister, if you go further there will be no one."

Shining eyes stared at Wen Ying, obviously looking forward to his reward.

Wen Ying took out two hundred yuan bills from her pocket and stuffed them into the pocket of the child's jacket, "Be careful not to be robbed."

The child knew money, and when he saw two hundred yuan bills, he felt particularly excited.

In previous years, he would only have money to spend during the Chinese New Year, but it would not exceed ten yuan.

After the children left, Wen Ying walked to a place he had just seen.

This is a cemetery.

The children said that people in the village would be buried here after they died.

And around the cemetery, there is a willow tree that grows particularly... strangely?
  Different from ordinary willow trees, the trunk of this willow tree has a tendency to split. Thin gaps are really there, and in the gaps are densely packed black branches and buds.

The smell around the tree is stronger than the smell in the entire village.

Wen Ying attached her hand to the gap in the tree and could feel something seeming to penetrate into her palm and move towards the inside of her body.

This smell made Wen Ying frown, and she didn't like it.

A faint golden light appeared, and with a bang, the gap in the tree completely exploded.

The thick trunk was broken into two pieces.

Wen Ying stared at the break and saw that all the black branches and buds were burned.

But in the center of the trunk, something similar to the shape of an ancient key actually remained proudly under the golden light?

Wen Ying stretched out her hand and put the thing in her palm. It felt wooden.

There is a slight heavy feeling, but there is no dark atmosphere.

After using the Qingfeng Talisman to clear away the dust, Wen Ying saw a traditional Chinese character "东" on the handle of the key, looming.

After being dealt with by Wen Ying here, within half an hour, the souls of the old people wandering around the village quickly appeared here.

They were still a little confused.

Wen Ying sighed, and after asking for their consent, she spent half of her spiritual energy to send them away.

Those unpleasant smells also disappeared, until an hour later, there was no such smell in the village anymore.

Wen Ying left the village with the wooden key with the word "East" written on it.

On the way back to the city.

"Dong, it can't be Taishan, right?"

[Host, how do you know? 】The sound of the system that had not appeared for a long time made Wen Ying feel a little dazed.

I almost forgot that I had a system.

Wen Ying thought about it but did not answer the system's question.

[The host is really smart, this is Mount Tai. 】

The system affirmed. Of course, you can't say that you were called back for maintenance some time ago.

But no matter what the system said, Wen Ying didn't reply to him.

[Host, can you hear my voice? 】

[Host, I didn’t leave on purpose. 】

[Host, you won’t untie me, will you? Strange, obviously not untied]

【Host, are you okay? 】

[Host, this time it is indeed my problem, so I brought a gift when I came back this time! 】

"What gift?" Wen Ying's voice was calm.

System: [...] Sure enough, it’s still the same host.

The system made no sound, but Wen Ying saw something similar to a token appearing in front of her.

The pattern on it was a bit complicated. Wen Ying stretched out her hand to grab the token and looked at it carefully.

"What kind of token is this? Is there also the word "东" in it?"

[Host, this is]

"I've been told, I know."

After that, Wen Ying ignored the system and returned to the clinic with her things.

Putting the token and key together, Wen Ying had a guess, but she needed Mr. Zhang's help to confirm this guess.

So, in the evening, Wen Ying took Xiaobai and Kong Jian to Aunt Zhang's house to have dinner.

A table of feasts, referred to as perfect, [-]% of which are meat dishes.

Xiaobai didn't like eating with adults very much, so he took Kong Jian to play with little Douding and eat together.

Wen Ying told Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang directly that she wanted to see the old man and wanted his help.
