Mr. Zhong is over fifty years old. Although his family is wealthy and well-known, he gives the impression that he is very elegant and not aggressive.
However, it can be seen that the disappearance of his son has dealt a great blow to him. He has half a hair, his eyes are deeply sunken, and the bloodshot eyes can be clearly seen.
After hearing the purpose of their visit, he set his sights on Feng Yi. After a moment, he cupped his hands and said, "I have met Daochang Feng."
The tone was calm, with a hint of doubt.
Feng Yi didn't pay attention and said seriously: "Mr. Zhong, I am deeply sorry after hearing about the young master. Although Wen Cai cannot be blamed for this matter, he still has some responsibility for his failure to dissuade Mr. Zhong after all.
Mr. Zhong was benevolent and righteous. Not only did he not make things difficult for him, he even did not deduct the previously agreed remuneration. Feng was greatly admired.
It just so happens that Feng has some ability and wants to spend some time with this thing that has been hurting people, which can be regarded as relieving Mr. Zhong's troubles."
Seeing Feng Yi's frankness, Mr. Zhong said bluntly: "Master Feng, you and I are strangers. I don't know you very well, and Aren's matter has nothing to do with you.
Zhong admires your determination to slay demons, but if you want to get any benefits from me, you have made a wrong calculation."
Feng Yi waved his hand and said: "Mr. Zhong is worrying too much. Feng has never had such thoughts, he just doesn't want tragedies to continue to happen.
In this case, Mr. Zhong, Mr. Feng will take his leave."
Seeing Feng Yi about to walk out of the main hall, Mr. Zhong suddenly said: "Master Feng, if you can find Ah Ren, no matter whether you are alive or dead, Zhong will be grateful and will prepare a generous gift for you."
Feng didn't reply at all: "There is no need for generous gifts. If I can find Master Zhong, I will definitely send him back."
After speaking, the group of people left the Zhong family.
Seeing Feng Yi and others retreating, Butler Lu came over and said, "Sir, although Taoist Feng looks young, what he says makes people inexplicably trust him."
"I hope he is not a person who overestimates his capabilities and harms himself and others."
When Mr. Zhong thought about his missing son, he felt sad again.
…
"I'm sorry, junior brother, no one believes your good intentions, and you are often ridiculed and ridiculed. It's all my fault."
Wencai said apologetically after leaving Zhong Mansion.
"Brother, what are you talking about?"
Feng Yi shook his head and said: "Master was young when he was questioned, and when did he ever care?
It's useless to talk about things we haven't done yet. We just need to do things well.
Besides, when we are brothers, we are more like family than family, so there is no need to see each other outside."
Qiu Sheng smiled at the side and said: "Wencai, Feng Yi has been taking care of us all those years ago. You and I know his character very well. Are we still afraid that he will change?"
Wen Cai sneered. He did feel a little strange. They hadn't seen each other for so many years and had taken different paths. He felt that there was nothing he could do to help Feng Yi, so he naturally thought too much.
Feng was well aware of Wencai's thoughts, but he had no good solution. Qiu Sheng hadn't seen him for so many years, and he treated him as before, but Wencai was a bit unfamiliar. This was due to their different personalities.
Thinking of the dull and heartless literary talent he had in those days, he sighed secretly and felt a little desolate.
It didn't take long for a few people to see this mountain that had brought suffering to countless people.
Although it is said to be a mountain peak, it is actually only a hundred meters high and not too steep. There is a light mist surrounding it, which makes it look a bit fairy-like.
The most eye-catching thing is the lush green trees on this mountain peak.
"Junior brother, there is a trail on this mountain, about four meters wide, and there is a fence protecting it, which was left by our ancestors."
Wen Cai introduced from the side: "Some places have damaged fences due to long-term disrepair, but the overall quality is still good.
I've heard people say that it's not that no one wants to continue to maintain it during the process, but people disappearing happen frequently and everyone is afraid, so no one cares about it anymore.
As for the day Jongin disappeared, I paid close attention and the fence next to it was still in good condition."
Feng nodded. Several people disappeared silently. It must have nothing to do with falling off the cliff. No matter how stupid a person is, they will make a sound if they fall.
But what surprised him was that he couldn't feel any trace of the mountain's aura fluctuations.
This is not a good thing, it just proves that the problem is more serious than he thought.
He can even conceal his aura, so he should be a tough opponent.
"Master, do you see anything?"
Luo Sang asked after observing for a while and finding nothing.
Seeing everyone else looking at him, Feng Yi shook his head slightly and said, "I didn't find anything."
"this?"
Everyone changed their colors when they heard this. Zhang Yunyi frowned and said: "Daozhang Feng, even you can't find the problem. Doesn't it mean that this opponent is very powerful?"
"This is normal."
Feng Yi said calmly: "Think about it, if it were really an evil spirit, countless people would have been killed after so many years.
If it were nourished by human essence and blood, no matter how weak it was, it would be strong by now.
This is just right. We have worked so hard to come here. If the opponent is too weak, even if we solve it, we will feel uncomfortable.
Let’s go up the mountain!”
Feng Yi was confident and everyone felt at ease, so they followed him and set off towards the mountain peak.
When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, several people were burning paper money. There were roast chickens, pig heads and other offerings not far away. These people looked sad and had tears in their eyes.
"Are you guys paying homage to an old friend?"
Qiu Sheng stepped forward and asked.
"Are you going up the mountain?"
A woman in her thirties looked up at them and asked.
"Yes, that's exactly what I meant."
Qiu Sheng nodded.
"A few of them are from out of town."
The woman stood up and advised: "This mountain is very evil and can eat people. My husband disappeared two years ago today.
Not only me, but these few also have family members who have disappeared in this mountain, with no one alive or dead.
If you are not too urgent, I advise you to take a detour from here. Although you will have to walk a few more miles, it is still very safe. If you are lucky enough to meet the driver pulling the cart, you can go faster."
Several other people stood up one after another and echoed the woman's words.
"Thank you for your advice, but we are in an emergency and must pass through this mountain."
Feng Yigong cupped his hands and said, "But if you have time, you can wait here for a while. Maybe something strange will happen."
Several women looked at each other, not understanding what Feng Yi's words meant. By the time they realized what they were saying, Feng Yi had already stepped into the mountain.
"What did this man mean by what he just said?"
someone asked.
"Who knows, he was so inexplicable, he didn't listen to advice, and he even said that something strange would happen. The biggest miracle in my opinion is that he never came back."
"Forget it, I've already persuaded those who need to be persuaded. These people look a little strange. Let's go back first to avoid any mishaps."
The woman who spoke earlier picked up the basket, and the other people also put away their belongings. They glanced at Feng Yi and others who were going up the mountain, shook their heads and left.
