After Wu Xiazi finished speaking, he looked straight at me, as if giving me time to react.

Be careful about the classmate next door. Isn’t the classmate next door Wu Xiaohu?

You know Wu Xiaohu is my good brother, why does Blind Wu want me to be careful about him?

Just as I was about to retort, a flash of lightning flashed through my mind, and I remembered what Qinglian said to me during the day: "Don't believe Wu Xiaohu! Don't believe the divine calculation Zhou! Leave immediately! Don't come back! Don't believe anything in this village!"

A strange feeling rose from the bottom of my heart.

According to what Fang Taihe said, Blind Wu is an expert in fortune-telling in the Taoist circle. I guess his ability is not bad, so I should listen to what he said.

As Wu Xiaohu's wife, Qinglian has been together for five years. I have seen their affection, so why would she remind me to be careful of Wu Xiaohu?

Although I was very confused, I still believed in my own judgment about this matter, that is, Wu Xiaohu was my best classmate in high school and would never harm me.

But since Blind Man Wu said this, it’s hard for me to say anything. After all, I still have to rely on others to calculate the fortune and guide me.

If I show distrust in them now, there is no guarantee that they will be dissatisfied.

So I pretended to listen to his advice carefully and said I would be careful.

Blind Wu nodded with satisfaction and took another sip of white wine.

Fang Taihe on the other side also got drunk and clinked glasses with Wu Xiazi frequently, feeling as if he had met a close friend.

In this way, it was only nine o'clock, and the two of them had already drank two bottles of liquor. I kindly reminded them that there were still urgent things to do.

But these two people were already drunk and said that the matter could not be solved in a short while and they would not come home unless they were drunk tonight.

With that said, Fang Taihe sent me to the store again to buy a few more bottles of wine. He and Blind Wu were going to talk about the scriptures.

I had no choice but to put on my shoes and clothes and walk towards the store.

These two old guys really don't have any priorities. Although drinking is not a bad hobby, it is not particularly good either.

Fang Taihe, this guy, forgot the purpose of coming to Dachanggou when he saw wine.

But now I am begging others, so naturally I will do whatever they say.

I bought two bottles of liquor from the store and walked to Wu Xiaohu's house, cursing.

The lights in Wu Xiaohu and his wife's room have gone dark, and they seem to have gone to bed. People in the mountains go to bed early, which is not surprising.

The lights in the wing were still on, and it seemed like the two old guys were still chatting.

When I walked into the house, I was about to scold them, but I was stunned.

Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi are not in the house anymore!

I was shocked. When I went to the store just now, two people were drinking at the dinner table. I just went to buy a drink, but when I came back, I was nowhere to be seen!

Where did they go?

I put the liquor on the kang and walked out of the door. In order to avoid waking Wu Xiaohu and his wife, I whispered their names.

"Uncle Fang? Taoist Master Wu?"

No reply.

He raised his voice slightly: "Uncle Fang? Taoist Master Wu?"

Still no reply.

I started to wonder, where did these two guys go?

Could it be that he encountered an accident or was robbed?

But soon, this idea was rejected by me.

It's a new era now, and robbery has disappeared for a long time.

What's more, even if there was a robbery, who would rob these two old men?

Judging from their clothes, Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi looked like mice who would leave crying when they entered the house.

But if it wasn't robbery, where did they go?

It only took ten minutes to go from Wu Xiaohu's house to the store. Why did two living people disappear out of thin air?

It was already ten o'clock, Wu Xiaohu and Qinglian had already gone to bed. They must be very tired after a busy day.

At this time, I shouldn't disturb their rest, but in this situation, I can only ask Wu Xiaohu for help.

Walking to the door of the main room, he raised his hand and was about to knock on the door when he heard a small sound coming from the room, like two people arguing about something.

I blushed instantly and immediately understood what was happening inside. I dropped my hand on the door and ran away from the main room.

At the same time, I felt extremely anxious. Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi disappeared out of thin air. I was unfamiliar with the place in the village, so the only one I could rely on was Wu Xiaohu.

But now, he is going through a major event in his life, so I can't disturb him.

But now the life and death of Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi are uncertain. I can't just sit back and wait for death, right?

Reluctantly, I walked out of the house and walked along the path to look for these two troublesome guys.

It's summer now, and there are bursts of insects chirping in the grass on the road, and the occasional hoot of an owl can be heard in the distance.

I shivered. Ever since what happened to Yao San'er last time, it has become my physiological reaction to shiver whenever I hear an owl hoot.

It was pitch dark on the road, but fortunately it was a full moon night, so we could still see the road clearly with the moonlight.

As he walked, he shouted softly: "Fang Taihe! Blind Wu!"

But there was still no response.

In this way, I walked from the east end of the village to the west end of the village, but still no sign of Fang Taihe or Wu Xiazi.

I thought about the possibility of them disappearing, but I made no progress.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed before my eyes.

It was pitch dark, and even with the help of the moonlight, I couldn't see the person clearly. I could only vaguely see a dark shadow.

The black shadow obviously noticed me and ran away the moment it saw me.

I was a little confused by him.

Generally speaking, it is normal to encounter pedestrians on the road. As long as they have done nothing wrong, they will naturally not run away.

But when Heiyinger saw me, he ran away. Apparently, he had done something wrong and wanted to avoid me.

Could the owner of this dark shadow have something to do with Fang Taihe’s disappearance?

I also started running after him. That man was very familiar with the environment of Dachanggou and could run very fast even in the dark night.

Speaking of Dachanggou Village, this was my second time here. I was not familiar with the place, and it was too dark at night and there were many obstacles on the road.

Still unable to catch up with him, the man saw me chasing him again and sped up again.

Finally, it disappeared around a corner.

Looking at the dark night, the black shadows had disappeared. I put my hands on my knees and gasped for air.

I kept cursing myself for being useless. If I had been faster just now, I should have been able to catch the black shadow!

But now is not the time to think about Heiying'er, the most important thing is to find Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi.

After I caught my breath, I walked along the path again, shouting softly all the way.

However, that dark shadow has always been lingering in my mind. It always feels very familiar, a bit like déjà vu...
