"Wait a minute..." Fatty suddenly thought of something, "At that time, when you were kneeling to the wall and worshiping, could there be someone standing there at that time..."

"An old man." Peanut said, "He has lived there for many years. If you kick those coffins into pieces, he will die soon."

I couldn't understand how many years Peanut meant, "But we didn't see anything at the time."

Peanut shook his head, "You have all seen it, but you just didn't realize it. There have always been people living in this Snow Forbidden City, but it is also a cemetery, because no matter how long those people can live, after all, they can only

Waiting to die."

Peanut said, which made my skin crawl. "Aren't dad and the others in danger? Those living people you mentioned won't do anything to them, right?"

Peanut looked back at me, "Some things are beyond human control. Yuan Long has a lot of experience, Qin Feng is also powerful enough, and there is a person who doesn't know his origin, they should be able to handle it. Yuan Jie, you already know a lot

It's over, now you have to go your own way."

I looked at the alley where my father and the others left, with mixed feelings in my heart. Then I looked at my left hand, and I finally fell silent. The red rain fell sparsely on us, and silently, the giant bird with a human head

It passed slowly over our heads. I don't know why, but I suddenly felt that it was not so scary.

As Peanut said, we didn’t feel anything when these things were poured on us. It wasn’t even liquid. After it fell on us, it quickly turned into a thin layer of red mist. But I saw

, the reaction of the red rain falling on the peanut was different. Those things actually penetrated into the skin of the peanut and disappeared without a trace. Both Fatty and I found it strange, but when we went to look, the giant bird was no longer hovering above our heads.

.

We were worried that those things had not flown far, so we leaned in the alley and rested while waiting. The fat man took out the food and everyone shared it. I couldn't help but wonder if Peanut needed to eat now.

I saw that Peanut had already bitten the bag of dried meat into his mouth.

After finally calming down, I started to feel sleepy. But I also knew that it was not the time to sleep, so I got a cigarette from the fat man to smoke.

"Fat man, pass me the cigarette." I said.

The fat man was lighting a fire for himself and ignored me. So I waited for him to light the fire and shouted again.

"Hey, do you think we two are so weak, can we go out?" The fat man didn't know what happened. He didn't seem to hear what I said, so he started chatting directly to Peanut.

I was about to open my mouth again, but suddenly I felt something was wrong. What did he say? "We two"?

My heart skipped a beat, and I immediately understood what was happening in front of me.

Peanut took the cigarette point from the fat man and said, "Of course you can follow me, but I can't. Once we meet, either Yuan Long or I will die."

"Then don't talk nonsense. After smoking this cigarette, let's find our own way out." After the fat man said this, he glanced in my direction, but he didn't see me at all.

The previous situation happened again. I immediately stood up from the ground and kept calling the names of these two people. "Peanut, Fatty..." But they couldn't hear me at all.

The first two times this kind of thing happened, something else happened, and then Peanut and the others woke up. But this time, I really didn't see any signs. Having reached this point in my heart, could it be that in the end?

Will Fat Man and Peanut leave me behind?

"Hehe... hehe..."

When I heard the child's laughter coming from behind, I quickly covered my ears. I knew that as soon as I turned my head and saw those pictures, I would probably lose my mind again.

"Yuan Zi..." Someone called me from behind.

"Shut up!" I yelled, but the peanuts and fat man in front of me couldn't hear it at all.

"Yuan Zi, you're home." It was grandpa's voice. "Yuan Zi, have you...forgot about grandpa?"

I knew in my heart that this voice couldn't be grandpa's, but after hearing it, I couldn't help but turn around.

"I know, **Dad has a lot of things I'm sorry for you about. It doesn't matter, we are the whole family. Let's go back. Nothing will happen when we go back."

I almost heard my grandpa's footsteps slowly walking towards me. I couldn't help but finally turned my head.

Grandpa was waving to me. He was standing on the edge of the yard, leaning on a cane and shaking slightly.

"Okay, let's go." The fat man clapped his hands, stood up from the ground, and followed, Peanut walked out of the alley without looking back.

When I saw the two people leaving, I wanted to catch up, but grandpa said again: "Don't worry about those things, it will only make you more painful. Just go with grandpa, our family will be like before, nothing will happen again."

Hey, Yuan Zi, go back..."

Yes, maybe this is an opportunity. My thoughts began to slow down again. Following Peanut and Fatty, where will I end up? Can I know everything? It should be impossible, so why don't I leave?

.I have a feeling in my heart that as long as I follow my grandfather and walk forward, I can go back to the past and return to the most perfect time in my life.

Gradually, I made a decision in my heart... A feeling of exhaustion and pain left my body and then spread all over my body. I immediately believed that my decision was correct and not wrong. I followed my grandfather.

Well, go back to the past and don't have to worry about anything anymore.

Before I opened my legs, I looked back at Peanut and Fatty. This was probably my last look.

I don’t know what happened, but Peanut and Fatty stopped for a moment at the same time. At that moment, my mind was shaken.

"What's wrong?" the fat man asked.

"It's nothing, why did you stop suddenly?" Peanut asked the fat man.

"I don't know, I, I always feel like something is weird, like something is missing." The fat man scratched the back of his head.

Peanut smiled and said, "Let's go." Then, the two people walked towards the diagonally upward broken path, and soon their figures disappeared into the snow.

No one is waiting for me. Maybe, from now on, Yuan Jie will no longer be in everyone's mind.

Forgot, they forgot about me.

But... maybe it doesn't matter. I'm not very good at making people remember me. Maybe without me, everyone will have less trouble.

My heart suddenly felt as empty as the snow in the square.

No, grandpa is still waiting for me, and dad and the others must be too... I turned around, and sure enough I saw everyone in my family waving to me.

"Yuan Zi, come here quickly... Yuan Zi, what are you doing standing still? It's time to eat. Go and wash your hands. Yuan Zi..."

The smile gradually spread on my face, and then I wanted to run towards my family. At this time, someone suddenly patted me from behind. As soon as I turned my head, my heart suddenly tightened.

Not very far away from me, I saw a woman wearing a white gauze dress. Her hair was long and hanging on her body, and her eyes were almost completely covered. The woman was holding something in her arms.

I looked carefully and found that, that was actually a baby.

While this scene made me feel scared, it also felt familiar to me.

I seem to have seen her somewhere...but where?

I looked through the memories in my mind, almost giving me a headache thinking about it, and finally I remembered it.

That seemed to be the woman holding a child that I accidentally saw by the river when Tan Wei and I took a boat away from my hometown... Why did she appear here?

"Where are you going?" The woman's voice was slightly thick and extremely low. When she spoke, not a single part of her body moved. I even doubted whether it was her speaking.

"I, I'm going home." I answered her stiffly.

"Which home should you go to?" she asked again in a low voice.

"Go back to... our old Yuan family." I continued to answer.

"Are you from the Yuan family?"

"Yes, I am Yuan Jie, I..." Suddenly I couldn't continue. "Yes, I, I am not from the Yuan family, and I, I am not Yuan Jie." I started to panic.

Then, "Then, who am I, yes, I, who am I?"

As I said that, I covered my head with my hands. Then I thought of something, so I raised my head and looked at the woman in white, "Do you know who I am?"

"You don't even know, how can I answer you?" the woman said, "but if you continue to go there, you will never know who you are."

"Then, what should I do?"

After I asked, the woman suddenly took a step back, then turned sideways and pointed in the direction where Peanut and Fatty left. "Only you can find out who you are."

"But they have forgotten me. No one will remember me." I shook my head and said.

"It's not that others have forgotten you...it's you who have forgotten yourself." The woman said, "This place knows what you will encounter as soon as you come in, and it also knows that you can't stand that kind of thing."

A blow, you are actually very scared in your heart, you don’t know who you are, and suddenly you feel that you have lost your support, your heart

The loneliness inside is clearly seen by this place, so it wants to take you away. And the reason why it can do this is because deep down in your heart, you actually want to escape. You want to escape from all this, and you regret contacting it.

When you see these things, you regret every decision you made... So, it’s you who wants to escape.”

These words of the woman in white made me feel very scared, because every sentence she said seemed to be the most real monologue in my heart, and I seemed to be having a conversation with myself.

After panicking, I asked her: "What should I do?"

The woman in white pointed in that direction and stopped answering. I understood that she wanted me to catch up, find Fatty and Peanut, and continue to search for the answer with them.

At some point, Grandpa and all the previous scenes disappeared. I looked back and finally plucked up the courage to walk out of the alley. However, the woman in white still made me feel extremely scared. When I passed by her, I

I warned myself not to take a closer look at her. But in the end, I couldn't control my eyes and looked down at her arms.

I immediately saw that the baby she was holding in her arms had long since rotted, and those tiny, light yellow maggots were crawling densely on the baby's face. However, the baby grinned and looked at me.

He laughed out loud.

I suddenly felt that I couldn't breathe, and my body twitched...suddenly,

He stood up from the ground.

Breathing heavily, I found that my body was covered with snow, and there was nothing around except the cigarette butts dropped by Fat Man and Peanut on the ground.

I was so frightened that I didn't know if it was a dream or something. However, Peanut and Fatty were gone. This is a fact. In other words, they probably really forgot about me and went straight to find a way out.
To be continued...
