"Tuk tuk tuk..."
Knocks on the door one after another hit her heart, echoing in this silent and uninhabited town.
She knocked on the iron door numbly, her eyes gradually losing color.
After a long silence, Tan Jiajia finally made up her mind, pushed open the unlocked door and walked in.
The farmyard is still the same as before, and there is no change except for the deathly atmosphere that permeates the air.
But after entering the door, she did not walk into the house. Instead, she stood in the courtyard with no signs of life as if she had lost her soul...
After an unknown amount of time, the morning star rose into the sky, and the sky turned a fish-belly white color.
Tan Jiajia was silent in the courtyard, her red shirt already wet with dew in the early autumn night.
But she didn't realize it, she just looked at the sky dreamily.
When the sun lazily casts its first ray of light onto the earth, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Tan Jiajia watched as the house in front of her quickly collapsed under the sun and turned into yellow sand flying all over the sky.
The calm face finally began to have waves.
With eyes wide open, she ran toward the crumbling buildings, as if to prevent their collapse.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and within a few moments, this small courtyard became nothing more than the outside world.
Tan Jiajia was left standing in the yellow sand in the sky, crying like a dam.
Her home is gone! .
Heavy footsteps sounded behind her, but Tan Jiajia, who was heartbroken, had no intention of looking back.
The footsteps approached slowly and stopped two meters away from Tan Jiajia.
After a moment, a cold female voice spoke:
"Got you."
Tan Jiajia looked back sadly, and the dazzling sunlight made her squint.
Not far away, Ren Shan, wearing a camel-colored windbreaker, stood with her backlit, and it was unclear what the expression on her face was.
Tan Jiajia opened her dry mouth and muttered: "Ren Shan?"
Ren Shan looked at Tan Jiajia in front of her and did not express curiosity about her strange attire. She took a few steps forward and looked at Tan Jiajia with a trace of pity in her eyes:
"You must be in pain. Your home was destroyed a month ago, but you didn't know about it until now. Even..."
Ren Shan didn't say the rest, but Tan Jiajia knew it well.
She thought about the phone call she made home in the early morning of that day, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"hehe……"
Seeing the other party's reaction, Ren Shan laughed out loud:
"Love has really blinded your eyes. When you and Zeng Qi were in love, have you ever thought about what kind of disaster your father and fellow villagers are suffering."
While she was talking, she kept staring at Tan Jiajia, her eyes like thousands of years of ice.
Tan Jiajia lowered her head, not knowing how to answer the question for a moment, with complex emotional fluctuations in her heart.
She didn't have much idea about the real culprit who attacked Yuntian Town, but she could more or less guess that the person who did it was probably not a mortal.
But...what kind of camp does the woman named Ren Shan in front of me belong to? What is her purpose here?
Ren Shan ignored her and started talking to herself:
"With such a big incident happening, why haven't there been any reports about it from the outside world?"
"Everyone who survived in Yuntian Town has been compensated. Why has no one contacted you?"
"Or let me put it another way, have you ever thought that someone blocked the road between you and them?"
Hearing this, Tan Jiajia suddenly felt enlightened.
She seemed to know the purpose of Ren Shan coming here.
It seems... to sow discord between her and Zeng Qi? ?
Tan Jiajia lowered her eyes, feeling that the other party was really ridiculous and hateful.
He actually chose this time when she was already heartbroken to come here to sow discord.
If she hadn't known that there was an organization specializing in managing such "paranormal phenomena", she might have got her wish.
However, Tan Jiajia didn't have time to ridicule the other party.
As if she had guessed what she was thinking, Ren Shan spoke again: "So...that's what you think. If so, then I'm meddling in other people's business."
Tan Jiajia raised her head in surprise and saw Ren Shan looking at her with a disappointed look, as if she didn't want to say anything.
strangeness? I shouldn't have said anything just now, right? she thought.
But Ren Shan quickly put away her strange expression, turned sideways and looked at the floating clouds on the horizon, and put on a bright smile:
"Goodbye, I hope you can still be this innocent next time we meet."
After she said this, she turned around and walked away facing the rising sun.
"etc……"
Tan Jiajia quickly stopped her and chased after her:
"If you know something, just tell me. Instead of half telling and half hiding. I'm not a god. How can I guess what everyone is thinking!"
Ren Shan's departing figure was not affected. What responded to her was only the strong wind that came from behind.
The strong wind carried yellow sand, which blinded her eyes, and also blew the hem of her clothes.
By the time the dust settled, Ren Shan had long disappeared.
Tan Jiajia put down her arm covering the sand, opened her eyes, looked at the empty ruins, and murmured to herself: "Strange woman."
As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes were attracted by the piece of paper falling on the ground.
Was it brought by the wind just now?
Tan Jiajia walked over and picked up the piece of paper.
Only then did she realize that the so-called piece of paper turned out to be a photo.
But when it was blown over by the wind, the back side was facing up, and it looked like a piece of waste paper.
If it hadn't fallen on this loess, it would have been ignored by Tan Jiajia.
She turned the photo over, but it was pitch black with nothing on it.
"I thought it was something good, but it turned out to be a piece of crap."
Tan Jiajia said to herself in disappointment, just when she wanted to throw away the photo.
Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that the photo didn't seem to be pure black, but that there seemed to be blurry images inside.
Tan Jiajia was startled, then opened her eyes wide and looked at the photo carefully.
This time, she discovered something different.
The photo is indeed not a mass of darkness, but a photo of a residence in Yuntian Town.
It's just that the house was wrapped in a flame-shaped thing, and the flame was processed into black,
So at first glance, it looks like someone took a pure black photo.
In the upper left corner of the photo, there is a black shadow in the sky, which looks like a mushroom.
Could this be the real culprit who destroyed Yuntian Town? ?
Tan Jiajia's eyes widened, and this thought flashed through her mind.
Could this photo be left to me by Ren Shan? ?
But why would she do this?
She looked at the blurry black shadow again, and felt that the shape seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
In this flash of lightning, Tan Jiajia suddenly thought of a possibility.
This black shadow looks more like an umbrella than a mushroom...
