The son-in-law of a wealthy family against the sky

At that time, Fan Ya provided Lin Feng with a place where he could find the pocket watch, but this place seemed to be very secret. Lin Feng had been sending people to investigate secretly, and only later did he find out that this place was in a small town in country C.

After finding the clues, Lin Feng immediately took No. [-] and himself to the small town.

The township was sparsely populated, and Lin Feng and No. [-] drove all the way without seeing anyone. After entering the village, the two decided to get out of the car and walk on foot, wanting to ask the villagers to inquire about the situation.

But they went all over the village, but they still didn't find anyone.

"The houses here don't look dilapidated, they should be traces of people living in them. But why can't even people be seen in broad daylight?"

After walking such a long distance, Lin Feng was also tired. He squatted under the tree and lit a cigarette a little irritably.

No. [-] looked around vigilantly, "I always feel that something is wrong with this place, I can't tell what's weird!"

"Of course I also know that this place is very strange, but if we can't find anyone like this, it means that we can't find any clues at all, and it will be even more difficult to find the pocket watch." Lin Feng wrinkled He frowned and sighed lightly.

Just a few seconds after he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared at the concrete intersection in front of him. An old woman walked towards this side with crutches.

Walking in front of Lin Feng and No. [-], the old lady looked at them with a strange look.

Seeing the old woman, Lin Feng only felt that he saw hope. He squeezed out a smile, looked at the old woman and asked, "Old woman, where have all the people in this village gone?"

"People?" Hearing Lin Feng's question, the old lady was even more astonished, "Young man, it seems that you are from other places!"

Lin Feng nodded sincerely.

"Then I advise you to leave quickly! This village is unlucky." The old lady shook her head slowly and continued to walk forward.

But the old lady was the first person Lin Feng met here, so he naturally didn't want to give up just like that, so Lin Feng strode after him and asked persistently: "Old lady, what happened in this village? Why is there no people?"

The old woman turned her head to look at the persistent Lin Feng, sighed a long time, and said, "Alas, a plague broke out in the village decades ago, and the doctors in the township said it was an incurable disease. In a poor country, the villagers are honest and responsible people, and they don’t have spare money to go to big cities for medical treatment. In the end, all the villagers in the whole village died of illness. Only a few survived!”

Apparently the old woman was one of the survivors.

"Then, old woman, have you seen this thing?" Lin Feng took out a photo of a pocket watch from his pocket and handed it to the old woman.

The old lady took the photo and looked at it slowly. The pocket watch on the photo seemed to arouse the old lady's reverie. Standing beside her, Lin Feng could feel the subtle changes in the old lady's mood.

In less than a while, the old woman's dark eyes filled with tears.

She turned her head and looked at Lin Feng seriously, "Who are you? Why is there a picture of this pocket watch?"

The old lady's tone was a little choked, which made Lin Feng more sure that the old lady had some kind of connection with this appearance.

"I was entrusted by someone to get this pocket watch." Lin Feng said bluntly, "Grandma, if you can help me find this pocket watch, I will definitely reward you heavily!"

Lin Feng's answer disappointed the old lady.

The old lady shook her head slowly, and sighed again, with infinite sadness in her tone, "I'm just a dying person, what's the use of asking for your reward? But since you can get The photo of this pocket watch can be found in this place again. It means that you are destined for this pocket watch, then I will tell you about this pocket watch..."

"En." Lin Feng nodded excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Feng and No. [-] followed the old lady to her home.

The house is very simple, but it was kept clean and simple by the old woman. It can be seen that only the old woman lives in this house, so it is very deserted.

The old lady made tea for the two with stumbling steps, then sat on the wooden chair, recalling the past with a little sadness.

"The owner of this pocket watch used to be my lover. We were young at that time, and we also felt that loving each other was vigorous, but he was a foreigner after all, and our rules here are not to marry a foreigner! However, for his As far as the family is concerned, my birth was too humble, so the relationship between the two of us was hindered by both families. Later, I chose to remain unmarried for him.

Back then, he gave me this pocket watch as a token, but then one night my house caught fire and the pocket watch disappeared. I know that someone from his family should have sent someone to take the pocket watch away. go back.I haven't had any contact with him since then..."

The old woman said these words slowly, her eyes were already moist, and the picture of embracing her lover when she was young seems to be vivid in her memory.

"But I got definite news that this pocket watch should be in this small town now." Lin Feng said a little unwillingly, he suspected that the old woman did not want to hand over this pocket watch out of selfishness.

"Impossible. His family is far away, and this pocket watch can be regarded as a token representing his family. It is impossible to still be in this small town!" The old woman looked determined.

Lin Feng frowned, turned his head and looked at Number One.

Number One shrugged helplessly.

"I know as much as you want to know! But it's been too desolate for a while, and it's rare to see outsiders. If you two don't dislike it, why don't you stay and have a meal with my old lady?" the old woman said. He sincerely invited the two of them in a friendly tone.

Lin Feng knew that his wife was not a poor person, so he couldn't bear to let her down, so he nodded in agreement.

After dinner, it's evening.

The last afterglow of the sky falls, and the crescent moon quietly climbs up the clouds.

When the two of them were about to leave, the old lady specifically confessed: "Because many people died in the early years, there is a lot of yin here, if you want to leave, you should leave as soon as possible."

"Okay, old lady, thank you." Lin Fenghe No. [-] thanked the old lady and drove away.

But the strange thing is that the two of them obviously returned along the same cement road when they came, but the more they walked, the more they found that something was wrong.

When they came here, the concrete road was only about ten kilometers away, and then they should reach the expressway, but they had been driving for an hour, but they still stayed on a narrow concrete road.

There was thick fog on both sides of the road, and they couldn't see the buildings next to them clearly. The further they drove, the lower their visibility became.
