When things go wrong, there must be monsters.
Zhang Mu looked at the little girl leading the way. He knew her name through the previous exchange and asked casually.
"Xiao Yi, do you know where everyone else has gone?"
Xiao Yi didn't stop, jumping forward and looking carefree.
Regarding his question, he licked his fingers and thought about it carefully.
"I'm not sure about the nest, but Master Mountain God recently came to the mountains. Everyone should have gone to pay homage."
"Mountain God?" Zhang Mu's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't pay too much attention.
Thinking about it, it was probably a guy who came out of nowhere to cheat people out of food and drink. He had seen this kind of thing too many times.
"What about your family? Why didn't they take you to worship that Mr. Mountain God?"
But this time Xiao Yi didn't answer. He just shook his head silently, with a trace of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
"My father and mother are missing. Everyone in the village said they went to the city and left the nest behind."
Zhang Mu Hearing this, he didn't know what to do for a moment.
After a moment of silence, he took the candy out of his pocket.
"Then can you tell your uncle about Uncle Ling?"
"Why didn't those people just want the uncles to see him?"
Looking at the candy handed over by Zhang Mu, the little girl's eyes lit up, and her disappointment was swept away.
He grabbed it, peeled one off and popped it into his mouth. Feeling the sweetness in it, he immediately narrowed his eyes with laughter.
"Uncle Ling's family is very nice, and they often give me delicious food."
"It's just that I seem to have suddenly fallen ill recently, and I can't hear them even when I talk to them."
"The village chief said that they had angered Mr. Mountain God, that's why they were like this, and no one was allowed to see them."
Although what Xiao Yi said was neither serious nor serious, Zhang Mu's expression changed slightly, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.
At the moment, he couldn't care about anything else and asked a little urgently.
"Xiao Yi, how far is it to get there?"
"We're here, No, that's right there!" Xiao Yi stopped at this time and pointed ahead.
Zhang Mu looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a dilapidated thatched hut in front of her.
Around the thatched house, several villagers can still be vaguely seen.
He stared at them closely, as if he was monitoring them.
But Zhang Mu was in no mood to care about them at this time, and the group went straight to the thatched house.
Knock knock knock!
"Sister Fang, open the door quickly, it's a nest!"
After Xiao Yi pounded hard, a confused female voice soon came out of the room.
"Is that you Xiao Yi? Why are you here?"
As the words fell, the door creaked and someone opened it from the inside.
A girl dressed simply and looking no more than fourteen or fifteen years old appeared in front of everyone.
I don't know if it was smeared with soot or something, but it looked dirty.
At this time, she saw so many people at the door, and seemed to be shocked, and she was about to close the door immediately.
However, Zhang Mu took a step forward and jammed the door tightly. No matter how hard she tried, the door could not move at all.
"You guys! You have hurt Uncle Ling like this, what else do you want!"
Seeing that she couldn't compete in strength, determination suddenly flashed in the girl's eyes. She pulled out a sickle from her back and slashed Zhang Mu's neck.
Zhang Mu also hurriedly dodged, after all, his body was not as abnormal as Master Ling.
Seeing the anger in the girl's eyes, she knew that she and others had been misunderstood, so she hurriedly explained.
"Don't get me wrong, girl, we don't mean any harm."
Seeing the girl's disbelief, she quickly took out a letter from her arms and handed it over quickly.
The girl took the letter doubtfully, and after just one glance, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"This... this is really Brother Ling's handwriting!"
Zhang Mu felt relieved when he saw this, but looked at the girl in front of him with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Before coming here, I didn't hear Master Ling mention that he had a younger sister at home?
At this time, after reading the letter, the girl finally realized that she had misunderstood the people in front of her.
There was also a trace of embarrassment on his face at that moment, he put away the hatchet and said with some embarrassment.
"Yes... I'm sorry, I thought you were those nasty guys."
Zhang Mu waved his hand nonchalantly and glanced into the room.
"This girl, don't you know that Master Ling and the others live here?"
"My name is Fang Rou. Are you asking about Uncle Ling and the others?" Although Fang Rou was a little confused about the title of Zhang Mu, he didn't ask any more questions.
He just looked around carefully, as if he was afraid of something.
"Anyway, you guys come in first and talk about it."
Zhang Mu naturally would not refuse and walked in.
The group of people followed closely behind and all walked into the room.
After the door was closed again, the nearby villagers responsible for surveillance also disappeared quietly.
"Damn! How could this happen? Who did this!"
In the room at this time.
On a bed, I saw a middle-aged man and woman lying on it with their eyes closed and their faces pale.
Although the two people were dissatisfied with the traces of wind and frost on their faces, they could still vaguely see some traces of Ling Yun.
At this time, Zhang Mu clenched his fists and looked extremely ugly.
He never expected that after working hard to find the target, the result would be such a scene.
He couldn't even imagine how he would explain to Master Ling when he returned to Cloud City.
At that moment, he hurried forward to check.
However, the strange thing is that no injuries were seen on the two people, and there were no signs of poisoning.
It looked like he was sleeping normally.
But no matter how others shouted, they didn't mean anything sober.
"This is all the work of that damn Mountain God!"
"It was he who cursed Uncle Ling and Aunt Ling!" At this time, Fang Rou on the side suddenly said through gritted teeth.
"Curse?" Zhang Mu was shocked when he heard this, and the first thought that came to his mind was, Evil Spirit!
But then he dismissed this idea. If it was really Evil Spirit's fault, then there would be absolutely no living people in this small mountain village.
Then if it's not Evil Spirit, it can only be...
Zhang Mu's pupils shrank. Now he is no longer the martial arts disciple who knew nothing before. He also understands some of the secrets of this world.
Knowing how difficult this matter was, he suddenly stood up and said in a serious tone.
"Run back to Cloud City immediately to see Master Ling!"
Others were shocked and couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade.
"Brother Zhang, it's going to get dark soon. Isn't it inappropriate to rush at this time?"
Zhang Mu ignored it and his tone did not allow for refutation.
"Get your car ready now!"
The younger brothers didn't dare to say anything when they saw this, and each took the order and left.
Seeing them leaving, Zhang Mu turned to look at Fang Rou, who was still a little confused.
"By the way, Miss Fang, do you know where Fang Hao's family is?"
"Fang Hao? He is my father, do you have anything to do with him?" Fang Rou was stunned at first, and then asked with a confused look.?
