Underworld Pass

Zhouyang City, Jiangsu Province, has the reputation of fireworks going down to Zhouyang in March.

On this day, in a small town in the northwest of Zhouyang City, looking at this ancient building and walking in it, the corners of Ye Fan's lips raised slightly.

In view of the completion of the task of unifying the underworld, reincarnation reappearing in the human world, and the integration of the Immortal Court system, Ye Fan now has the qualifications to search for the key of Liangjie Mountain in a real sense under the system's examination.

And the clue given by the system happened to be in Yang City of this state.

Zhouyang City is originally a tourist city, and there are countless tourists who come here every year, especially the tourists in this small town, it is crowded with people, shoulders rubbing each other, and people are crowded, but many people still enjoy it.

On top of this classical town, all kinds of folk snacks and craftsmen's various small crafts are extremely attractive to tourists.

Even in Ye Fan's hand, he was holding a candied haws.

It's just that this candied haws is not something he wants to eat, but a gift for the little girl who hides the key.

"Your Highness, I found it!"

Qingming's figure quietly appeared beside Ye Fan, and after whispering something in Ye Fan's ear, it disappeared without a trace.

Looking at the sweet candied haws in his hand, Ye Fan couldn't help grinning, and then strode out of the town following the clues Qingming and others gave him.

In this seemingly bustling town, countless tourists come to visit it every day, but there are so many people, and many things happen inadvertently.

There is a saying that goes well, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds.

More than three miles away from the small town, there is a village called Wangjia Village, which can be regarded as a large village mainly for tourism. The resident population has reached nearly 2, and every household has small western-style buildings. On the whole, it looks very rich.

But after all, the majority is still a small number of rich people, who are using a small number of people to drive most people to create more wealth. Therefore, only rich people are poor.

The contrast between the rich and the poor is not too obvious here, but there are also a few families who can't get rich even if they want to. Every family has hard-to-read scriptures, and whose family doesn't have any difficulties.

"Your Highness, from now on, we can no longer help you with anything. The task of this key is also one of the tests for you by the system. Only when you have truly completed this task, will you be qualified to truly lead us to Liangjie Mountain."

Jarvis' voice came from the earphones, Ye Fan nodded slightly, lit a cigarette, and walked towards the old house not far away, which was in stark contrast to the planned western-style building.

It was a small courtyard. There was an old locust tree planted at the entrance of the courtyard. It seemed that no one took care of it, and it seemed that it had been born here for a long time.

The locust tree is inherently yin, but if there are such thick and crooked locust trees, most of them are here, and there will be some unharmonious legends.

At this time, under the thick locust tree, a little girl about four or five years old cleverly used a branch to write one, two, three, four, which she learned from other children, on a small piece of loose soil under the locust tree.

Ye Fan walked up to the little girl and saw that she wrote seriously and fairly. At least when Ye Fan was his age, the handwriting she wrote was not as good-looking as this little girl.

Looking at the little girl's floral jacket in the early spring, Ye Fan couldn't help frowning slowly, because in this year and month, in this big city, there are still people with patched clothes, especially a little girl who looks like a porcelain doll.

There are many patches, and the floral jacket looks very thin. Ye Fan squatted down slowly, and the little girl also raised her head, looked at Ye Fan curiously with a pair of big black eyes, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm here to save you."

Ye Fan smiled slightly.

"help me?"

The little girl tilted her head curiously, shook her head with a puzzled expression, and said, "Uncle, I don't know you. Mom said you can't talk to strangers!"

"You are innocent and pure, and you are obedient. You are a good girl."

Ye Fan smiled lightly, stretched out his hand, handed the candied haws to the little girl, and said, "Don't worry, my uncle is not a bad person!"

"Mom said you can't take things from strangers. I'm sorry uncle, I don't eat, but I still have to thank you, hehe—"

The sensible little girl smiled sweetly at Ye Fan, but Ye Fan could clearly see that in her clear eyes, there was a deep desire for the candied haws in Ye Fan's hand, but she concealed it very well.

At such a young age, only five years old, the girl has such a heart, which really impresses Ye Fan, and he can't help but feel affection for this delicate and cute little girl.

"Xiao Hua, Xiao Hua, who are you, what do you want to do?"

At this time, a woman in her thirties rushed out from the courtyard gate. She was only average in appearance, with a little bit of vicissitudes on her face. She hugged the little girl in her arms a little excitedly, and asked Ye Fan warily.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Ye Fan."

Ye Fan nodded slowly, smiled, and said, "Oh, by the way, I'm rich!"

"It's none of our business if you have money, it's yours, not ours!"

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then she looked at Ye Fan who was very good-looking in front of her speechlessly, and said angrily, "This is my daughter, don't think of any bad ideas, or I will fight you hard!"

"Don't worry, I'm here to save her, how can I hurt her."

Ye Fan shook his head slightly, smiled softly, and said: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm really not a bad person, my purpose of coming here is very simple, please listen to me first, okay!"

"Okay, say it!"

The woman wanted to interrupt Ye Fan, but seeing Ye Fan's serious expression, she could only listen to him.

Since you were pregnant with her six years ago, this family has never been peaceful. First, your husband died unexpectedly, and after that, your parents-in-law also passed away one after another. Besides, your physical condition is getting worse and weaker every day. Also, in order to give this girl a better future, you promised yourself to a bastard man you don't love at all, am I right? "

Looking at the woman in front of him, he was a little surprised, but immediately questioned the woman who was looking at him. Ye Fan also felt uncomfortable. Maternal love, after all, is great. For the sake of the child, there are too many mothers who are desperate.

The person in front of him is a typical example.

A woman who can give everything for her daughter and doesn't care.

"Yes, you are right, but so what, you can find out about my family's affairs from anyone nearby, what do you mean by this!"

The woman looked nervous, and even looked at Ye Fan in front of her with a little anger.

"Yes, I can find out all these things, but, you were abused by this bastard and shameless man, you were the one who kept silent, right? When you were abused by him domestically, you were the one who kept silent, right?"

Ye Fan's words, like a sharp knife, pierced into the bottom of this woman's heart, and her heart trembled suddenly.

"It's not because you're weak, or because you don't know how to fight back, but because of this little girl, am I right?"

"But, don't you know that what you do will only help the evildoers? Have you ever thought that one day if you are no longer here, what will this bastard man you find do to your child, especially her, who is still a little beauty. I am afraid that in a few years, she will definitely be slim and beautiful. When you are not around, who will protect her?"

Ye Fan looked at the woman in front of him bitterly. When he came here, he shattered all the dreams of a beautiful future that a woman had imagined for her daughter. There was no room left. Especially what he said was a bit cruel to this woman.

Seeing the woman's expression getting worse and worse, seeing the little girl pitifully holding the woman's cheek and speaking comforting words, Ye Fan couldn't bear to continue talking.

Ye Fan, who lit a cigarette, silently looked at the woman who seemed to have a broken expression at this moment, smiled bitterly, and said, "Do you want to know why all of this is happening? Why are you so unlucky, why is your family so unlucky, why have you started to have bad luck since you had her, and the whole family went to hell with you?"
