One second. Org, free of charge!

On the other side.

The intermittent whimpers sounded in his ears.

Ji Wu hurriedly pressed down on his aunt's body. He took out a black stone from under his pillow and handed it to her. "It's here, it's here. Don't worry."

The old man held onto the black stone tightly, touching the mottled patterns on the stone, he lightly sobbed. "Southern Zheng …"

Ji Xiu sighed. He wanted to say a few more words of advice, but he suddenly heard a 'kacha' sound.

In the dead of night, the room was silent. Where did this sound come from?

Ji Wu held his breath as he looked at the black stone in his aunt's hand. 'Did the stone move just now?'

Impossible, how can the stone move? Even if it was a live Gu, it has been dead for so many years …

"Crunch."

Her weak voice rang out once again, causing Ji Cha to open her eyes wide. She suspected that her eyes were blurred, but she could clearly see that the black stone, the stone … Cracks appeared.

Rubbing his eyes, Ji Hu inched closer. Then, he heard another "kacha" sound …

In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Ji Cha was like a madman. She could only watch helplessly as the stone, from the cracks to the cracks, emerged a caterpillar.

She swore it was a caterpillar, green and wriggling.

Ji Cha grabbed her hair, her eyes wide open. She suspected that she was dreaming. Other than dreaming, there was no other explanation for what was happening in front of her!

"Southern Zheng … "Southern Zheng …" However, his cousin was still holding the caterpillar in her hands and even rubbing it against her cheek.

Ji Cha was on the verge of collapse. She shook her hands in an attempt to touch the caterpillar, but just as she was about to do so, her cousin violently pushed her away.

The old man who'd been dispirited for months was exceptionally energetic at this moment.

The old man looked at Ji Cha warily, then hid the caterpillar in his bosom like a precious treasure. He even retreated into the bed, and when he retreated to the corner, he wrapped himself up and turned his back to Ji Cha with his butt facing his back.

Ji Xiu really wanted to look at that bug again. She felt that the situation now was not right. Why would there be a bug hatching out of that stone?

What is that worm? Does it have poison? Can you hold it so casually with your hands?

However, her aunt's attitude did not allow her to get close at all.

Thinking this way, Ji Cha didn't dare to delay any further. After closing the door, he rushed back to the clan leader's house.

The clan leader's family had long since fallen asleep. Upon hearing the knock on the door, they all stood up in a daze. When they heard Ji Cha's words, they all froze in shock.

"The stone?" A Gu fossil? "

Ji Xiu nodded his head vigorously. "That's it. If I break it, I'll produce a worm. Quickly go and take a look. I suspect that I have gone mad!"

The Miao Race had always been mysterious. However, that Gu worm had indeed died many years ago. How could it possibly still be alive?

The Patriarch didn't have time to ponder over it. He grabbed his outer garment as he followed Ji Cha outside.

But when the two of them rushed back to the house, they found that the door was open.

Ji Cha rushed over to take a look, only to see that the room was empty. Cousin, it's gone!

Ji Wu panicked. The chief was still an elder after all. He calmed down and quickly ordered some people to go call for him.

Not long after, all the families of the Ji's Family Castle were alarmed. When they found out what had happened, they did not dare believe it, but instead worried for the safety of the elderly.

"I've sent someone to ask about the soldiers guarding the castle. I haven't heard of anyone entering or exiting the castle. My aunt must still be in the castle. Let's split up and search around. If we find one, we'll send out the fireworks."

No one had any objections. They held torches and candles in their hands and began searching in groups of twos and threes.

When he searched, he found daybreak. Forget about his figure, he didn't even find a single footprint.

"Can a person just disappear into thin air?" Someone questioned and then asked Ji Cha, "You've seen the rooms clearly. You've seen every room clearly. Are you sure there's no one here?"

Hearing that, Ji Cha became confused and said, "I looked at two rooms … …" Could it be … "In the backyard..."

"Let's go back and take a look." The clan head immediately said.

Everyone hurried back, but after searching for a while, they still didn't find anything. Only the fence at the bottom of the backyard was pushed open, and they could still see the tottering footprints.

"Looks like I left from here. Where did I go along this path?"

No one knew the answer.

How could anyone else know where the backyard of someone else's house led to? Adding on the fact that the entire area of the Ji's Family Castle was already large, and it was built on a mountain, surrounded by a lot of trees.

They had no choice but to follow this path. When they reached the end, they discovered a cliff. At the bottom of the cliff, there was a torrent of water that flowed into the sea …

Ji Xiu ran over and laid on the ground with red eyes. "Cousin …"

Someone walked to Ji Cha's side and pulled her to prevent her from falling down as well. At the same time, he looked at the water flow below and said, "Such a rush of water. If it really falls, I'm afraid …"

"No, no... Even though she knew it was a cliff, her cousin wouldn't move forward … "It won't happen..." However, for people with dementia, what was there that they didn't know?

Slowly, Ji Xiu began to cry. The soft-hearted aunt hugged her and cried in her arms while blaming herself nonstop. It was all her fault. It was all because she didn't take good care of her aunt …

"I'll send someone down to take a look." In the end, the chief gave out an order and calmed the unruly hearts of the people. "In the end, if you are alive, you have to see others. If you are dead, you have to see their corpses!"

After a whole night of searching, no one had a good rest. The clan head arranged for the soldiers to go down to the sea to search for people, so they could go back first to rest. Ji Xiu refused to leave, insisting on following the soldiers.

With the current so fast, and the rocky terrain surrounding it, the boat did not dare to stop in the middle of the river, so they had to stay far away. They climbed up the cliff and shouted as they looked down the road.

This method of finding people was undoubtedly inefficient, but it was already the best method for everyone. After all, if a huge wave were to strike, the lives of the soldiers might be in danger.

Ji Cha followed the soldier for three days, neither eating nor drinking. He didn't even sleep.

It wasn't until three days later that Ji Jin returned. When she found out about this matter, she hurried over to the cliff.
