When I heard that my father had left early in the morning for the mountains, my heart skipped a beat.

The phrase "dead people live, living people die" suddenly came out, and a bad feeling quickly spread through his four limbs.

I didn't even have time to greet Ceng Xiaoqiang who was immersed in joy, I called out to the Fourth Young Master to bring Tian Tian, and we immediately went to the Yin Road and ran back home.

I felt guilty in my heart. Recently, I was only concerned with tormenting them, and never had the chance to raise them properly, so I kept the Fourth Young Master and didn't care about Tian Tian still rubbing his eyes. I called my mother while running to the back of the mountain, and even called the people from the village to help me chase them.

There is only one way to get to the mountain, and that is through the big willow tree.

After the snake bone was born, in order to avoid the questions I didn't want to ask, I never came to the willow tree again. At this time, for my father, I didn't care anymore.

My mother was already on the mountain path behind the willow tree. She said that no matter how she called out, my father wouldn't be able to hear her and would only be preoccupied with walking further in.

"Follow me, I'll be right there." I said to her as I ran. I ran towards her, but Fourth Young Master was useless. They were Nascent Soul cultivators after all. Even if they absorbed the Ghost Bat, they still wouldn't be able to carry a living person like me.

By the time he reached the willow tree, it had already disappeared, leaving behind only a pitch black hole. The willow tree fragments fell inside, but no one could tell how deep the hole was.

The villagers had a taboo towards this willow tree, so no one bothered with it. They just left the cave like that and no one filled it up.

I only glanced at it briefly, and that day flashed before my eyes, and then I ran back up the path into the mountain.

I ran on, and when I heard my mother's low cry ahead of me, I ran after her again.

The old lady was already out of breath. When she saw me, it was as though she had seen her lifeline. She pointed at me and said to the old man in front of me, "Look, calling him any way is useless."

I softly replied, "En. When I came earlier, I shouted a few times in the village. I estimated that the villagers would be arriving soon. Let me rest here for a while, I'll go with my father."

"Father!" "Father!" Just like my mother had said, no matter how I shouted in the back, my father wouldn't answer.

I took a few deep breaths and ran to catch up with my father, hoping to stop him.

But as soon as he caught up, he turned around and saw that it wasn't his father.

It was a face covered in gray fur, with a sharp mouth and thin eyes. It was the face of a fox!

"Who are you?" I had a bad premonition. I stared at my father's clothes on the fox's face and asked, "Where's my father?"

"Ha!" "Heh!" The fox laughed twice and rolled over. His clothes fell to the ground and a grey fox jumped out from his clothes. It then scuttled into the forest nearby.

I didn't have the heart to play tricks with it, so I threw Little White over.

Lil 'White was sleeping soundly and was thrown out. It first whinnied in dissatisfaction, but when it saw the grey fox, its eyes lit up and it opened its mouth to swallow it.

"Squeak!" "Squeak!" The grey fox was bitten by Little White. It looked at me and said, "I was forced to do it. Please spare me, Lady Piaomiao!"

"Where's my father?" My voice was cold as I stared at it. "Why did you lure me here?"

It was wearing my father's clothes and imitating him as it walked. However, it was neither too fast nor too slow as it led my mother towards the mountain. Obviously, it wanted to lead me to the mountain.

"It's the mountain god, the mountain god!" The gray fox squeaked as it looked towards the peak of the mountain in the distance.

I followed its gaze and saw a tall figure standing at the top of the mountain with the morning mist still hanging on his body. The tall figure had his head slightly lowered as he silently looked at me.

Even though I couldn't see his eyes, I knew he was looking at me.

It was just like what the woman from the cave said. She had never seen the mountain god before, but she could feel it. This kind of feeling made her happy. She would rather die than marry the mountain god, becoming one with him.

"Humph!" I coldly snorted. I didn't understand why the mountain god suddenly ran out to become a demon and didn't directly target me.

He looked at the grey fox in Whitey's mouth and asked, "Where's father?"

"I heard from the Mountain God that he will go to the guanyin pavilion." The grey fox mewled softly, while flopping in Lil 'White's mouth.

"Eat it." I looked at Whitey's pitiful eyes and didn't even look at the Gray Fox. I just stared at the mountain peak where the figure was already. I turned around and walked towards the village.

and I have seen the guanyin pavilion before, they were the people that Crazy Wife and her group used to live in.

But last time, Hu Guyue and I didn't dare to go in, because when Hu Guyue said that we would go on the stone bridge, he said that his entire guanyin pavilion was covered in black.

This grey fox didn't have any sympathy for him. Since he dared to come out and cause trouble, he should bear the consequences.

Lil 'White swallowed the grey fox and ran back to me in satisfaction. It wrapped itself around my neck and stuck close to my face as it tried to comfort me.

I ran frantically all the way, and sure enough, the people in the village had already found my mother. When they saw me return, they hurriedly asked where my father had gone to.

"guanyin pavilion." I looked at my mother and didn't have the time to say anything else as I hastily ran towards her.

This matter was a bit strange. It seemed that the people who had recently met with mishaps were the same group of people from the quarry twenty years ago.

The Old Master Zeng, my father, and the Boss Cao all seemed to be related to the quarry from more than twenty years ago.

My father is acquainted with Boss Cao, but Old Master Zeng has never expressed that he knows my father and Boss Cao?

What could have been missing?

My mind raced as I passed through the little river in the village and followed the river to run towards the guanyin pavilion at the intersection of the two rivers.

The two stone bridges were still silently standing on the river. The wooden house that had remained standing despite the passage of many years was still standing in the shade.

I stood at the edge of the stone bridge and took a deep breath before calling out to my father. However, the wooden house was completely silent without the slightest sound.

In the early morning, small birds were flying past by the river. The guanyin pavilion s were surrounded by towering trees that reached the sky, but those small birds were flying past the river with their wings spread. Not a single bird landed on the trees beside the wooden house.

"Father!" "Father!" I shouted loudly, unsure if the grey fox was telling the truth.

Someone called out to me urgently from behind. It seemed to be an old administrative officer. My mother was also rushing over.

Just as I was about to scream, I heard a creaking sound. It sounded like something broken had been pushed away. There was also the sound of the wooden boards being blocked from grinding after not moving for a long time.

He immediately looked up towards guanyin pavilion, only to see a pair of hands stretching out from the vines behind guanyin pavilion's wooden door, followed by my father's men slowly walking out from the thick vines.

"The end of the morning." He looked at me and smiled, his hand still slowly pushing at the wooden door. "Didn't you always say you wanted a house like this? Come in and take a look. "

He smiled amiably as he exerted a little strength in his hand, but it seemed as if he could not push open the wooden door at once.

Everything was quiet, the morning mist seemed to have deepened, everything around me seemed ethereal, and all I could see was my father standing by the wooden door, and the mountain door that he had half opened.

I slowly climbed onto the stone bridge and walked forward step by step. My father's smile became more and more intimate as the wooden door slowly opened.

There seemed to be something affectionately calling out to me, and there was a cheer in the air, like the air in a village during the third month of the Lunar New Year, with an indescribable sweetness.

"Late Chen, come in and take a look." His father's voice was getting softer and softer, and he even extended his hand towards me.

I walked forward step by step, but there seemed to be something suffocating me. There were hissing sounds in my ears, but I couldn't hear them clearly. Only my father's words could enter my ears.

Suddenly, my feet stopped, and my body fell forward, as though I had been tripped by something. Following that, a pair of strong hands supported me, and slapped my face heavily: "Qin Chenmo, wake up!"

I suddenly opened my eyes, only to see that Liu Kunsheng had appeared on the stone bridge without me realizing. He had one arm around me, and the other hand was holding onto a stick that was as thick as an arm, as he stared fixedly at the space in front of him.

In front of the guanyin pavilion hut, the smile on my father's face became even wider, and when he saw Liu Kunsheng coming, he suddenly laughed out loud.
