Chi Yan left very smoothly, and the thing did not say anything about it. It was so smooth that he was muttering in his heart. When he was in high school a few years ago, he also watched a lot of anime novels and TV series, but it was not like this. No one can leave so easily in the face of the villain behind the scenes, unless it is not the real villain leader, there are more powerful guys behind him.

But he didn't take it to heart. After all, this is reality, not artistic creation. There will be very powerful people like Yingzhi's brother who will always stand by him.

As expected, the Ye family's car was already waiting outside. In addition to the driver, there was another person sitting in the back seat, Xu Xin.

Xu Xin sat in the car and explained simply, "My brother asked me to go with you."

Chi Yan nodded, and was about to open the car door to get in the car, when a man suddenly trotted after him, shouting, "Young Master, wait a minute!"

Chi Yan stopped in front of the car door, and Li Mao walked up to him with a small black box in his hand: "Eldest young master, this is what I found when I was sorting out Second Young Master's belongings, and a letter was placed underneath, saying it was for you. of."

Said to be a letter, but it was just a note, explaining that the box was to be reserved for Chi Yan.

Chi Yan hesitated for a moment, but thanked him for accepting it.

The only kindness Chi Rong has shown to him in this life is to warn him to leave after death and remind him to ask Ye Yingzhi to send Chi Yuan a ride. Therefore, he was a little uncertain about what was in the box, whether it was a clue left to him by good intentions, or something harmful. Even if it didn't hurt anyone, it was just a box of dead bugs like the tin box that Li Mao and the others found before, and he probably couldn't bear it.

He sat in the car with the box in his arms, and Xu Xin came over curiously: "What is left for you?"

Chi Yan handed her the box and reminded, "Be careful."

Xu Xin tried to open it, but couldn't, so she handed it back to Chi Yan.

Chi Yan was not in a hurry to open the box, turned to Xu Xin and said, "Where's Xu Rui? Why didn't he come with you and let you come alone?"

Xu Xin said: "he told me everything you told him before. He didn't worry about his parents and said he wanted to explain to them and take them away together, let me follow you first, and be ready to wait for him to pick up his parents. Leave the Xu family and come to L city to live together."

Speaking of which, there were traces of sadness in her expression: "I don't worry about my brother and my parents. It's okay for my mother to say that my father may not believe in my brother right away. Grandpa can't afford the entire Xu family... This will make it more troublesome."

Chi Yan could only comfort her softly: "Brother Yingzhi is still here, so it should be alright."

In fact, he is also very worried. The situation here now seems to be much more serious than that of Hejiacun. Hejia Village is just a group of ordinary people, but there are almost all the Celestial Masters who have some skills here, but so many Celestial Masters still haven't found anything unusual. What is even more terrifying is that ordinary people will go to the Heavenly Master for help when they encounter strange and unexplainable things, and now because of the sacrifice to the heavens, many powerful Heavenly Masters have already fallen into the game. Well, who can I turn to for help

Chi Yan didn't dare to think about it any longer. Da Ze also helped the world's poor, and he was alone. He didn't have the ability to manage too much. The Chi family has no one who can be called "relative". For him, as long as his brother Yingzhi and Xu Rui can escape this disaster safely, he is already satisfied, and the rest dare not ask for too much.

To divert his attention, he fiddled with the box Chirong had left him in his hand. The box was unlocked, but there was a Xia cicada-like insect specimen lying on the seam in the middle, fixing the box up and down.

Chi Yan tried to open it, and it was very easy. The bug fell to the ground at once, and the lid of the box was also lifted. Inside was a booklet, and a folded piece of letter paper.

He first opened the booklet, which contained pictures of various Gu insects, as well as text, which seemed to record the Qiongzhou Gu technique. Because of his father, Chi Yan only hated this technique and didn't want to know too much about it. He hurriedly glanced at it, closed it, put it back in the box, and took out the letter.

What is recorded on the stationery is a diary-like content.

As Chi Yan had guessed, the recorded content first happened more than 20 days ago.

Chi Rong suddenly discovered that his Gu worm had died bizarrely, and then he "touched" the corpse under his bed through the traction of the Gu technique, and found the fact that he had died. But at the same time, he also discovered another strange thing. There were traces of soul threads that did not belong to him hidden in his corpse. These soul threads blended well with his body and had been buried for at least ten years. It is precisely because of this that although his corpse is in a "dead" state, it still maintains a faint vitality and can be "lived" at any time.

Born in a family of Celestial Masters, he quickly realized that someone premeditatedly wanted to take away his body. But he also realized that if he could drive away those soul silks and return to his body at the same time, he would also be able to achieve a true "resurrection" in a sense.

After thinking about this, he drove a few still alive Gu worms into his body, and used his soul to lead them. If he succeeded in driving away "that person"'s soul silk, he could naturally drive them out again, but If he fails, his soul will be completely dissipated, and the Gu worm that has lost its traction will instantly drain the remaining flesh and vitality in his body. In the end, the Gu worm exploded and died, and his body would completely turn into a mummified corpse.

The content after that was not recorded anymore, Chi Yan counted the time, and by that time he had already returned to Chi's home.

Chi Yan remembered that Li Mao had mentioned that before Chi Rong "disappeared", people finally saw him on his way to the retreat of Mr. Chi. After thinking about coming, Chi Rong also found out through some method that the thing that buried the soul silk in his body and was about to take the house was living in the body of Mr. Chi, so on the night his father died, he went to find that thing and tried to take back his body. But it turned out that he failed.

Chi Yan put away the letter and pamphlet, and felt a little sighed in her heart. Chi Rong's mother caused their family to be torn apart. However, both their mother and son had to die in the end. And Chi Rong may still be thinking of a little friendship with his father, and finally left him a clue. If he received this small box earlier, he should have been able to judge the problem of "grandfather Chi Linsheng" earlier. But now there is no difference. Brother Yingzhi has managed everything so well, as if everything is under his control.

The car drove smoothly and quickly, and soon it was out of the range where Chi Xuye's three families lived in seclusion, and there were gradually more cars on the road. Xu Xin and Chi Yan each looked at the scenery outside the windows on both sides in a trance, each had their own worries, and neither of them was in the mood to talk, so they stayed silent all the way until they finally reached their destination.

After sending Xu Xin back to City L, the driver took Chi Yan directly to the hospital where Grandpa in R City was.

Chi Yan didn't dare to delay, and soon contacted Song Jin to find the ward where her grandfather was. Because Tao Juanjuan and the nurses had been helping to take care of it, the grandfather seemed to be in good condition, and his body was clean and tidy, but these two The day has not woken up.

He thanked Song Jin and his wife, and began to accompany the elderly in the hospital day and night. Although there were nurses and Song Jin and his wife who helped to go home and take a break occasionally, they didn't dare to relax completely. Ye Yingzhi gained a little weight a few days ago, and then quickly lost weight again.

A week later, the doctor said that if he didn't wake up again, there was nothing he could do. He could just take the person home and take good care of him. It was unknown when he would wake up, and it would be pointless to stay in the hospital. Chi Yan nodded and said to observe for two more days.

That evening, Chi Yan just wanted to go out to buy food, when Song Jin came in with a lunch box: "Chichi, Juanjuan made braised meatballs today, you can eat some. It's not a problem to boil like this every day, you can't add some money to the nurse. Help me to stare more, and you also have a good rest."

Chi Yan raised her head and smiled bitterly: "I'm still worried, now I only have my grandfather as a relative."

Song Jin didn't know what to say, so he patted him on the shoulder: "I'll rest tomorrow, I'll be watching from tonight until tomorrow night, you go back and take a good bath and relax for a while, or you're tired and sick. No one can take care of Grandpa. You should rest assured that I will take care of Grandpa?"

Chi Yan didn't refuse any more, thinking that she would come over early tomorrow morning to replace Song Jin. He felt very tired all day today and couldn't keep his spirits up. Song Jin was right. He really had to take a good rest.

Chi Yan took a shower after returning home, simply wiped the bathrobe, and came out. After that, she rolled into the quilt, lay on the pillow and closed her eyes to prepare to sleep. He was too tired to lift a finger and desperately needed a break.

During the half-dreams and half-awakes, he only felt a chill all over his body, and it didn't help to wrap the quilt tightly. At this time, he vaguely felt a familiar embrace beside him, so he rushed over and squeezed into the other's embrace.

The little thing in his arms kept rubbing against him and arching, and the bathrobe had long since been rolled off. He hugged him tightly with both arms, and he kept talking to himself like "Brother Yingzhi." "You don't want me", "I'm fine with you", "I like you the most", "Can you love me?" His eyes were tightly closed, and his body exuded an abnormally high heat.

Ye Yingzhi felt that it was the right time for him to come, and he just wished that he could directly hold him in his arms and eat it without leaving any residue. Reason told him that he had to be patient and restrained. Ah Yan's appearance was clearly because he was sick and had a fever, and he couldn't stand the toss at all.

He sat up and leaned over to kiss Chi Yan's ear gently: "Baby, don't do it, you are so sick. Tell my brother where the medicine is, and I'll go get it."

Chi Yan didn't care about his tricks, just hugged him and kept humming and rubbing.
