“You should stand up first, and we can talk inside.” Li Yidao extended his hand to help.

However, the other person persisted in kneeling.

But Li Yidao’s strength was not to be underestimated.

With a little effort, he easily pulled the person up.

“What’s your name?”

Box

After helping the person up, Li Yidao calmly changed the subject.

He also motioned for the person to sit down.

The young man controlled his emotions.

Haltingly, he said, “My name is Zhang Goudan, and my father is Zhang Ermao.”

“He’s the Miner Ermao you followed on the internet a few days ago.”

“After he fell… he didn’t make it…” Zhang Goudan’s eyes were filled with pain.

Li Yidao nodded gently, encouraging him to continue.

He knew that Zhang Goudan’s visit wasn’t just to tell him he was Miner Ermao’s son.

And…

Coming from such a distant place to ask for help in arranging a funeral, things certainly couldn’t be that simple!

Seeing that Li Yidao didn’t interrupt, Zhang Goudan continued, “My father’s death was unjust.”

“Actually, he was quite timid; he wouldn’t dare to jump off a building! Even when he stood on the rooftop, he was filled with fear.”

When Zhang Goudan reached this point, his emotions became evident, and he was slightly agitated.

Li Yidao handed him a bottle of water, signaling him to calm down.

Zhang Goudan took the water and drank it.

Then he exhaled a deep breath.

His gaze gradually turned inward, lost in memories…

“The day my father died, I was downstairs.”

“To be honest, I was really confused back then. I was terrified…”

“We had agreed it was just an act, purely to draw attention from all sides, to seek justice…”

“But… why did he jump? How did it come to this?”

“He jumped, and now it’s unlikely my uncles and the others will ever get the justice they wanted.”

“All the workers in his team, they all died! He took the day off because I had a fever and he didn’t go down to the mine that day.”

“Do you know? When my father fell, his eyes were looking in my direction!”

“His eyes were unrelenting even in death! I was utterly devastated at that moment!”

As he reached this point, Zhang Goudan became emotional again.

Even his entire body seemed to tremble slightly. Both of his hands holding the water bottle couldn’t help but shake!

Li Yidao sat in silence on the chair, quietly waiting.

After a full minute, Zhang Goudan finally regained his composure.

But his eyes at this moment were filled with fear!

Seeing the change in his expression, Li Yidao’s brow furrowed!

The conversation should now be getting to the crux of the matter!

As expected, Zhang Goudan’s tone now carried a trace of unease!

“The day my father jumped off the building, the forensic examination concluded that my father’s death was a suicide.”

“Because at that time, there was no one on the rooftop, and my father’s live stream can prove that he was alone. There is no dispute about this.”

“Although I was really surprised! After all, my father had said he was just trying to scare everyone, to attract some attention.”

“Maybe something unexpected did happen at that time, my mind was really blank! ”

“So the police closed the case quickly and allowed me to retrieve the body…”

“On that day…” At this point, Zhang Goudan paused again, and the fear in his eyes intensified!

“On that day, I was keeping vigil at the memorial hall… but what I never expected was that at midnight, in a daze, it was as if I fell asleep.”

“I actually saw my father!”

“He was pleading for help from me! He said he didn’t die voluntarily! He said he was pushed down by someone! He said he was trapped in a pitch-black place without any light!”

“I was really scared at that moment! But I mustered up the courage to ask my father where he was, so I could rush to save him. 𝒻𝓇𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝑚

“After all… he was my father, no matter how great my fear was, I had to save him!”

“In fact, I couldn’t distinguish between what was real and what was an illusion.”

“Even in the end, all I wanted was to save my father, and I had forgotten that he was already dead…” Zhang Goudan smiled bitterly at this point. “And like that, I lost track of time. When I regained consciousness, it was already the early morning of the next day.”

“I can’t recall what happened during that remaining time, only a few scattered images left.”

“Not only that! I remember another thing my father said! He told me to find you! He said he saw you! Only you can save him!”

“So, I rushed here as soon as I could.”

“Plunk!” At this point, Zhang Goudan knelt down again!

His eyes were filled with a pleading expression.

“Please! Please save my father. I can tell that you’re a capable person. I’ve been able to see things that others can’t since I was young.”

“I see something different in you, and no matter what situation my father is in now, I believe only you can save him. I beg you! Save him!” “Bang! Bang! Bang!” Three consecutive sounds again!

Li Yidao was speechless.

F*ck, couldn’t this young man just sit down and talk?

Initially, Li Yidao had been deeply engrossed in listening to Zhang Goudan’s account.

Particularly when he mentioned being pushed and trapped somewhere, it seemed to coincide with what Li Yidao had witnessed that day.

However, Li Yidao never expected this Zhang Goudan to perform another series of kneels and bows!

Moreover…

The words Zhang Goudan spoke also weighed heavily on his heart.

He understood that some people were naturally pure and possessed abilities that others didn’t. Maybe… Zhang Goudan was one of those people?

After helping Zhang Goudan back up, Li Yidao fell silent for a moment and asked, “Is your father’s body still in the memorial hall at your home?” It had been three days since Ermao’s death.

And considering the gruesome nature of his death… if the body was still at home…

Zhang Goudan smiled bitterly, “Yes, it’s still in the memorial hall at home.” “To be honest, it’s just me and my father left at home.”

“I wanted to take him to the funeral parlor… but I don’t have the money…” Zhang Goudan’s eyes filled with sorrow as he spoke.

“But my father’s body is still in good condition! It hasn’t decayed at all! Even when I get close to where his body is placed, I feel a chill!”

“I know something is waiting, I just don’t know if it’s good or bad.”

Li Yidao furrowed his brows again.

Cold?

Something waiting?

This situation was becoming increasingly mysterious…

The body didn’t decay and made people feel cold?

He couldn’t help but consider a possibility.

After a moment of thought, Li Yidao didn’t speak, but instead used his Soul Detection on Zhang Goudan.

As the Basic Soul Detection was activated, Li Yidao could clearly see a black mist swirling around Zhang Goudan’s body.

He furrowed his brows.

He used Advanced Soul Detection and consumed three years of lifespan.

Li Yidao didn’t have many opportunities to use Advanced Soul Detection, and it consumed a significant amount of lifespan.

However, in order to verify his thoughts, he didn’t hesitate.

He used it!

As lifespan was consumed, Li Yidao noticed that the black mist around Zhang Goudan’s body gradually became clearer…

It was a… figure…

NO!

Li Yidao frowned and checked carefully.

It was not a human figure. This was a… scarecrow?

As the black mist gradually cleared, Li Yidao could discern that it was a scarecrow!

What did a scarecrow mean?

Why would there be a scarecrow?

Even Li Yidao was momentarily stunned by this.

All of this was intentionally controlled by someone.

Or was he unintentionally getting caught in another vortex?
