When Yun Fanghai learned that Yun Ruichu had killed his other daughter, he didn't scold her. Instead, he praised Yun Ruichu and helped her cover up the traces.
For Yun Lianmeng, her existence had become a joke.
Yun Lianmeng disappeared from the world silently without leaving any trace. How could she not hate?
Although Yun Lianmeng had no guard against Ning Hong, she still kept an extra eye.
After years of struggling in the Yun family, she had learned how not to be wronged.
Even though every time Yun Ruichu framed her, even if there was evidence, Yun Fanghai would never believe her.
But recording every injury Yun Ruichu inflicted on her could remind herself again and again to run.
To leave this family.
And her good habit had completely recorded the evidence of Yun Ruichu's killing of her.
The most crucial video was in the pocket of Yun Lianmeng's corpse.
Only by finding the video could the Yun family be completely overthrown.
Yun Ruichu and Ning Hong could be convicted and punished.
Yun Lianmeng must tear off Yun Fanghai's hypocritical mask, expose his true face, and avenge the Yun family.
The Yun family's generations - old industry must never stay in the hands of Yun Fanghai, whose hands were stained with the blood of the Yun family.
As a ghost, Yun Lianmeng didn't dare to be careless.
Even though she had lost her memory at that time, she knew in her heart that there was one thing she must do: dig out her own corpse.
Let everyone know what the Yun Fanghai family had done to her.
"I can't just go and be reincarnated like this."
This was Yun Lianmeng's only thought after she regained consciousness,
which had supported her to find the truth until now.
The first thing she remembered was to find her own corpse.
No, she couldn't just die like this.
After a long and tiring journey, Chu Zhiyuan and Yun Lianmeng finally arrived at the familiar small mountain village.
The mountain village hadn't changed at all.
However, there were mostly old people in the village. It was almost dawn.
In the car, Chu Zhiyuan had spent the whole night mending and consolidating Yun Lianmeng's soul so that she wouldn't disappear so easily.
Now, Chu Zhiyuan was making talismans for Yun Lianmeng that would allow her to appear in the sun.
When Chu Zhiyuan looked up, he accidentally saw the scene in the village, which made his hair stand on end.
The old people and children in each household in the village were sitting upright at their doorsteps.
Strangely enough, they were like sunflowers. Everyone's head was turned neatly towards the direction where the sun would rise, and the angle of their heads was exactly the same.
It sent chills down Chu Zhiyuan's spine.
No matter what noise Chu Zhiyuan made, no one in the village turned to look at them. They were all concentrating on looking at the direction where the sun would rise in the sky.
The village was surrounded by small valleys, but its location faced the sun. It was a place where one could find hope in a desperate situation. The location of this village was well - chosen.
Chu Zhiyuan's appearance didn't divert the villagers' attention.
Yun Lianmeng didn't pay attention to the village. She just wanted to find her corpse quickly. With a determined look in her eyes, she went straight to the place where Ning Hong had dumped her body.
That place was in the deep mountains behind the village. Ning Hong had thrown her into a gully there.
And that gully was extremely hidden.
If Yun Lianmeng hadn't retained a glimmer of will to remember the route at the end, she might not have found the gully even if she had passed by her own corpse.
But strangely enough, Yun Lianmeng didn't find her corpse there.
Yun Lianmeng suspected that the corpse had been dragged away by wild beasts in the mountains.
Chu Zhiyuan came to Yun Lianmeng's side and looked into the gully along her line of sight. It was empty.
Chu Zhiyuan comforted Yun Lianmeng and said,
"You can feel your physical body now. I'll go down and continue looking. Calm down. You'll be able to see it."
"If your physical body is destroyed, your soul will be damaged. You'll have a sense of it. Don't worry."
Yun Lianmeng nodded with a worried look on her face.
Then Chu Zhiyuan jumped into the gully alone and came to the place Yun Lianmeng had just pointed to.
Chu Zhiyuan rummaged through the gully carefully, trying to find some clues, but he found nothing.
Just when Chu Zhiyuan was about to give up, his attention was suddenly attracted by a patch of grass. He took a closer look.
It was blood!
There were still undried bloodstains in this gully.
Chu Zhiyuan followed the bloodstains and walked a few steps forward. He found more bloodstains ahead.
Chu Zhiyuan squatted down and touched the bloodstains on the ground. They were still warm.
This set off alarm bells in Chu Zhiyuan's mind. He realized that this village was not simple.
When Chu Zhiyuan wanted to look up and tell Yun Lianmeng his discovery, the place where she had been standing was now empty.
Frowning, Chu Zhiyuan took quick steps to the place where Yun Lianmeng had been.
Chu Zhiyuan looked around. The jungle was dense with vegetation, but the gaps between the trees allowed him to clearly see this area.
He couldn't find any trace of Yun Lianmeng. Chu Zhiyuan shouted into the void a few times, but there was no response.
Only the birds in the forest responded to him.
Chu Zhiyuan knew that things were out of their control. His frown deepened, and the look in his eyes was unclear.
He stood there and scanned the area with his spiritual power. Just as he was about to find Yun Lianmeng, the next second, she appeared beside him.
Yun Lianmeng's sudden appearance made the tense Chu Zhiyuan heave a sigh of relief.
Before Chu Zhiyuan could start asking questions, Yun Lianmeng had already opened her mouth to tell her discovery. With a solemn expression, Yun Lianmeng said,
"I followed your method just now and really sensed my body. The situation was urgent, so I didn't tell you. My corpse is in that village, but when I got there, I lost my clue. There's something in that village interfering with me."
Chu Zhiyuan also told Yun Lianmeng his discovery.
"The Yin energy in that gully is extremely heavy. I also found bloodstains in it. They're still warm, but when I smelled the blood, I knew that the person was already dead."
Yun Lianmeng thought for a while and decided to go to the gully with Chu Zhiyuan to see if they could find anything else.
When the two of them came to the gully again, they found something different.
When they followed the bloodstains Chu Zhiyuan had found before,
they saw one rotten corpse after another.
Most of them were old people.
It seemed that they were the old people from that village.
Pinching his nose, Chu Zhiyuan still walked over. He didn't know the breath - holding technique. Finally, he couldn't stand the bloody smell anymore.
He took off his coat and put it on his face.
He was willing to do anything to help Yun Lianmeng find clues.
Yun Lianmeng's expression clearly showed that she was not used to the scene in front of her.
But when she turned her head and saw that Chu Zhiyuan had already stepped forward, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and rush forward.
Chu Zhiyuan took two steps forward. He saw a lot of straw mats piled up behind the corpses, and many straw mats were mixed among the corpses.
Looking at the "mountain" in front of her, Yun Lianmeng's face darkened. She felt the aura of death.
"Be careful,"
Yun Lianmeng warned.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded and bypassed the bloodstains on the ground to come to the nearest straw mat.
Chu Zhiyuan squatted down. After hesitating for a moment, he still opened the straw mat in front of him.
What he saw was a boy as big as a toddler.
Almost in winter, he was still only wearing thin clothes. His thin long - sleeved shirt and long pants covered his body tightly.
Strangely enough, although the child was dressed thinly, he was wearing a thick scarf around his neck, which was extremely eye - catching.
The child just looked a little pale. He was no different from a sleeping person.
But he had stopped breathing.
Chu Zhiyuan unbuttoned his clothes, wanting to see if there were any internal injuries on his body.
As soon as Chu Zhiyuan's hand touched the boy's scarf, he felt a slight stinging pain on his fingertips.
He reflexively withdrew his hand, but there was no wound on his fingertips.
Chu Zhiyuan thought it was his imagination.
He untied the boy's scarf, and what came into view was a dazzling red.
There were red rashes all over the boy's neck. They were oozing pus and emitting a foul smell.
The smell of the mucus secreted by these red rashes even overshadowed the smell of blood in this area.
