Zuo Xiaohan immediately felt that something was wrong.
The Zhou Residence had almost become an empty city, so no one should have paid attention to the commotion here.
Who would come to the bamboo forest in the middle of the night?
Who was it?
Zuo Xiaohan rolled his eyes and slowly turned around. He saw Gao Cai still wearing the short coat from before, standing silently behind him.
The distance between them was less than two meters.
The bone-chilling coldness from before came from the other party.
Zuo Xiaohan blinked his eyes and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He leaned back, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the pit that had yet to be buried. Wasn't the person lying in the pit Gao Cai?
Could it be that the person in front of him…wasn't human?
Zuo Xiaohan took a deep breath and couldn't help but take half a step back. He rolled his eyes and looked at the shadow on the ground.
Not far away, the thatched cottage was on fire, and there was only a shadow on the ground.
Zuo Xiaohan was the owner of that shadow.
And this Gao Cai…had no shadow.
Zuo Xiaohan suddenly understood. The black-robed Daoist had specifically told him about the 'other soul' before he died. Could he be referring to Gao Cai?
This?
He had just killed a zombie, and now another ghost had appeared?
Zuo Xiaohan pretended to be calm and puffed out his chest. He still had the last Corpse Suppressing Talisman in his arms, but he was not sure if it would work on this 'high-talent'.
The other party did not seem to have any ill intentions.
To be safe, it was better to pretend not to know.
After Zuo Xiaohan figured it out, his stiff body finally reacted. He pretended to be confused and replied,"Yes, Young Madam was looking for me earlier, so I was delayed for a while. When I came to change shifts, I couldn't find you.”
"I was still anxious just now."
Gao Cai continued to stand where he was and said expressionlessly,"You're late."
"I regret listening to your advice. That wine was drugged and I was killed by the family head and the butler.”Gao Cai suddenly sighed, his tone filled with unwillingness.
Zuo Xiaohan's heart was moved, and he said ingratiatingly,""Zhou Donglai and the butler have already been burned by me. You have already taken your revenge, but do you still have any unfulfilled wishes?”
"You and I have always been close. Why don't you let me help you?”
At least this sentence had some effect.
Gao Cai sighed again." My parents are still waiting for me to bring my salary back at the end of the year to renovate our old house. They're going to help me find a wife next year?”
Zuo Xiaohan added,""What's so difficult about that? I still have some savings, and I just found some Yuan Datou on them. If you believe me, I will send this money back for you and fulfill your last wish. How about it?”
"Little Han, you're still the best to me. The people of the Zhou residence are all bad people?”
"You know the address of my hometown. It's dozens of miles away from town. It's almost the third watch. You should set off now!”
After hearing this, Zuo Xiaohan was overjoyed. He bowed to Gao Cai and slowly retreated with his back facing him.
After retreating a few dozen meters, he was so scared that he ran away.
His face was covered in cold sweat.
Just as he was about to step into the backyard of the Zhou Manor, a voice suddenly called out from behind him." Little Han, my roots are here. If you have time, you can come back and visit me in the future."”
"Also, if my parents ask about my recent situation, just tell them that I went to Nanyang with a big boss to earn a lot of money. These Yuan Datou are my life money, so my parents don't have to worry about them.”
Although the two of them were dozens of meters apart, the voice seemed to have suddenly entered their ears. Every word and sentence was very clear.
Zuo Xiaohan stopped in his tracks thoughtfully and replied," Gao Cai, you and I have suffered. The people of the Zhou Residence either died or ran away. Since you've taken your revenge, don't cause trouble for them anymore."”
This time, Gao Cai didn't say anything.
Zuo Xiaohan did not say anything and slowly entered the backyard of the Zhou residence.
The previous disturbance had long since subsided, but there were still a few sparks of fire coming from the direction of the east courtyard.
Zuo Xiaohan tightened the backpack on his body. He recalled the direction of Gao Cai's hometown and walked out of the Zhou residence without looking back.
He couldn't take the money with him.
Let him show his filial piety for Gao Cai one last time!
When the sky was slightly bright, Zuo Xiaohan had already rushed to Gao Cai's hometown village. There were only about 20 households in the village, most of which were low mud houses.
There was only a courtyard with white tiles and green bricks standing at the front of the village entrance.
An old man was walking towards the village entrance with an old cow. Zuo Xiaohan ignored his fatigue and went up to talk to him,""Old sir, may I ask how to get to Gao Cai's house?”
"Gao Cai, isn't that the child who worked in the Zhou Family in Reliance Town? His house was just over there. Just go straight and turn left.”
Fifteen minutes later, Zuo Xiaohan bid farewell to the grateful couple and returned to the mud road at the village entrance.
He looked forward and vaguely saw a familiar figure squatting by the roadside, smiling at him.
The heavens were watching.
It was best to complete what he had promised others.
Somehow, Zuo Xiaohan seemed to feel a trace of the power of karma dissipating from his body.
He looked at the countdown timer in the system and decisively chose to return.
