Chapter 61 The Disappearing Person

The little boy limped towards Zhou Yun and kept shouting "Mom".

He opened his arms to hug Zhou Yun, but Zhou Kai had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed the little boy by his collar the moment he approached.

"You little thing, just talk nonsense, but you still dare to use your hands and feet. Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

Zhou Kai frowned and said viciously.

"Kid, have you recognized the wrong person?" Zhou Yun asked softly, "I am not your mother."

The little boy was a little anxious. He kept waving his hands and continued to call "Mom".

Shouting and shouting, the little boy started to cry.

Compared with other children in the village, this little boy's reaction made Lin Yi feel that something was wrong.

After carefully recalling it, among the children who gathered together and talked about the delicious parts of their bodies, this little boy was not at all there.

"Kid, why did you say she is your mother?" Lin Yi squatted down and asked in a low voice.

The little boy looked at Zhou Yun and murmured: "My mother... is the most beautiful..."

"Good-looking?" Lin Yi was stunned for a moment and looked up at Zhou Kai.

"What he said next is quite right, my sister is just beautiful." Zhou Kai said casually.

"Mom, I've been looking for you for a long time." The little boy looked at Zhou Yun intently, tears falling from his eyelids, and he looked very pitiful.

"Kid, I'm really not your mother." Zhou Yun also squatted down and explained patiently.

"Mom, please don't leave, okay?" It was obvious that the little boy's intelligence level was not high, and no matter what others said, he could not change his mind about the things he believed in.

However, his next words caught Lin Yi's attention.

The little boy stretched out his hand to grab Zhou Yun and said, "Mom, I miss you so much. Don't go with them. They are bad people."

"Follow them?" Lin Yi frowned, and when he looked up again, his eyes met Zhou Kai's.

"Kid, who did your mother leave with?" Zhou Kai also noticed that the little boy's words were a bit strange, so he asked hurriedly.

However, the little boy ignored him at all. He just looked at Zhou Yun and kept mumbling the same words.

"Brother, let me ask him."

Zhou Yun thought for a while, since the little boy regarded her as his mother, then the little boy might answer what she said.

"Kid, who are those bad guys you are talking about? Where did they take mom?"

The little boy listened to Zhou Yun's words. He raised his hand and pointed to the ancestral hall not far away.

"Mom, don't go in again."

"Ancestral Hall?!" Lin Yi was a little surprised, "This child's mother is in the ancestral hall?"

"Impossible." Zhou Kai shook his head.

"In addition to the elderly saint, there are only two people in the ancestral hall who are responsible for protecting the saint, and they are both men."

"unless......"

"This child's mother is... gone." Zhou Kai whispered.

"There is indeed a problem in this village." Lin Yi's face became a little solemn.

He thought for a while and said, "No, you can't stay here for a long time. Let's go back and meet Uncle An and the others first. We can sneak out at night."

Zhou Kai nodded, but when he let go, the little boy quickly grabbed Zhou Yun's hand.

He held on tightly, showing no intention of letting go.

"Let go!" Zhou Kai shouted.

Although the little boy was scared, he never let go.

He clung to Zhou Yun, as if Zhou Yun would disappear if he let go.

"I don't! I want to be with my mother!"

"You-" Zhou Kai was about to speak, but was stopped by Lin Yi.

"It looks like he has no intention of letting go. If we forcefully pull him away, people around here will definitely notice him crying."

Lin Yi glanced at the ancestral hall and continued: "Besides, this place is not far from the ancestral hall. It would be troublesome if the saint inside noticed it."

"Go back to Uncle Tian first, then find an excuse for Uncle Tian to send him away."

Returning to the wooden shed where Tian Wenlei lived, Tian Wenlei saw the little boy following Zhou Yun before he walked in.

"Little Tiger?" Tian Wenlei recognized the little boy at a glance.

Tian Wenlei came over and before Lin Yi could speak, he said first: "Little girl, does he regard you as his mother?"

Tian Wenlei's words surprised Lin Yi.

"Xiaohu, let go, she is not your mother." Tian Wenlei stretched out his hand to pull the little boy away from Zhou Yun.

"Mom, let's go quickly! He is a bad guy!" The little boy pulled Zhou Yun and shouted.

"You kid..." Tian Wenlei sighed and took his hand back.

"Lin Yi, don't mind. As long as there is a new person in the village, he will always be like this."

Tian Wenlei didn't seem to care about what the little boy shouted.

His reaction made Lin Yi a little curious.

Lin Yi thought for a while and asked straight to the point: "Uncle Tian, ​​this child's mother..."

Normal people would be curious when encountering something like this.

It would seem a little strange if you didn't ask.

"No more." Tian Wenlei answered simply.

"Xiaohu is a poor child." He continued, "In fact, there are many people like him in the village."

"You also know that when fighting aliens, there will inevitably be casualties."

"During that battle, Xiaohu's mother was seriously injured."

"We finally brought Xiaohu's mother back, hoping that the Saint Lady could save her, but it was too late."

"When she was sent to the ancestral hall, Xiaohu's mother had already died."

Tian Wenlei's answer can indeed explain Xiaohu's strange behavior.

He saw the people in the village bring his mother into the ancestral hall, but since then, his mother has disappeared.

Because of his intellectual problems, Xiaohu didn't know what death was, so he regarded the people in the village as bad people, and didn't want to get close to the ancestral hall.

When he said this, Tian Wenlei sighed again.

He glanced at Xiaohu beside Zhou Yun and said with a wry smile: "But it's good this way, at least he thinks his mother is still alive, but we just hid her."

"So that's the case." Although Lin Yi agreed, Tian Wenlei's words made Lin Yi discover another strange thing-

According to Tian Wenlei's explanation, the people in this village have been fighting with the aliens for many years. Since the people in the village have casualties, why hasn't Lin Yi seen anyone injured?

"Xiaohu lives with his grandfather now. I'll send him back first. If he goes back too late, his grandfather will be anxious."

As he said that, Tian Wenlei reached out to the little boy again.

"Don't!" The little boy suddenly became extremely excited. He picked up the stones on the ground and threw them at Tian Wenlei.

The dust accidentally got into Lin Yi's eyes. He raised his hand and rubbed it. When he opened his eyes again, he vaguely saw something coming out of the little boy's body.

It was a silk thread emitting a faint white light.

One end of the thread connected the little boy, and the other end slowly floated towards Zhou Yun.

What... is this? !
