Finally, it slowly fell to the ground.
When Kang Xingyi saw this magical scene, he was speechless for a moment.
This was beyond anything he had ever seen or heard before!
However, the more powerful Lin Xi becomes, the more hope Kang Xingyi feels.
He believed that with Lin Xi's ability, he would be able to help him find an old lady!
"Master, the leaves just spun in circles. Does that mean they're searching for the old lady? Have they found any results yet? Have they found the old lady?"
Kang Xingyi looked at Lin Xi expectantly.
Lin Xi said.
"I just asked the leaves to help me find out if there's anyone alive or breathing nearby."
Although she could find a person's whereabouts without having seen that person, the prerequisite was to know some accurate information about that person.
For example, the birth date, or items related to that person and carrying his own aura will do.
Like the old lady Kang Xingyi mentioned, she didn't even know the most basic information about the other party. She only heard Kang Xingyi say that there was such a person as her.
With just this one sentence, even if she were a god, she might not be able to find the other person.
So we can only take it step by step.
The leaves themselves are one of the symbols of "vitality", and they can also feel various scents more sensitively and communicate information with the animals around them.
Just now, Lin Xi asked Shuye to find out if there were any other living people near the mountain besides her and Kang Xingyi.
After all, Kang Xingyi couldn't be sure about anything else, but the only thing he could be sure of was that the old lady's home was definitely near this mountain.
Unfortunately, the feedback from the leaves was that apart from Lin Xi and Kang Xingyi, there was no trace of living beings around the entire mountain.
Even if the old lady is temporarily away from home and lives in her own house, she will still leave behind the scent of a living person, which the leaves can sense.
But there is none of this.
This shows that there is no one living around this mountain.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi suddenly looked at Kang Xingyi with some affection.
Because if nothing unexpected happens, the old lady he saw at that time might not be a human.
To be more precise, not a living person.
The small house that appeared near the deserted mountain on a rainy night, the elderly man living alone, the action of chasing Kang Xingyi away before dawn, and the house that disappeared without a trace...
All the details put together were enough for her to piece together the truth.
Seeing that Lin Xi's eyes looked a little strange when he looked at him, Kang Xingyi inexplicably felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Master, why are you looking at me like that? Did that leaf just now not bear fruit?"
Lin Xi did not hide anything and told the truth directly.
After hearing that the falling leaves meant that there were no living people living near the mountain, Kang Xingyi's eyes widened in disbelief.
"How is this possible? The old lady said she's lived here for over ten years, and it's always been here. How could there be no one living here?"
Kang Xingyi found it hard to accept such a result.
But after he saw Lin Xi urging the leaves to explore, he naturally did not dare to question Lin Xi.
But this result was too hard for him to believe.
What are you thinking about, Kang Xingyi suddenly asked.
"Master, could it be that the old lady moved away, the day I left?"
This would explain why the leaves had just produced fruit.
The old lady must have moved away for some time, so her scent or something dissipated nearby, so the leaves didn't notice it.
In fact, this possibility is very low.
Because from what Kang Xingyi had said before, the old lady had not left here for so many years, and her children only came back to see her during the holidays, and had never thought of taking her away.
This shows that if she was really alive and lived nearby, it would be impossible for her to move away suddenly.
Not to mention that she moved out right after Kang Xingyi left.
But seeing that Kang Xingyi looked determined to get over the Yellow River, Lin Xi didn't mind going with him to take a look.
Lin Xi said to him, "Take me to the place where you first went back to see her."
Kang Xingyi didn't bother to ask any more questions at this moment. He turned around and took Lin Xi in that direction.
He knew what place Lin Xi was talking about.
It was his first time back, and he planned to go back to find his grandmother's place.
However, he went to that place several times in the past few days, but still didn't see the old lady's house.
Can Lin Xi find someone if he goes there?
Thinking this in his mind, Kang Xingyi unconsciously quickened his pace.
Finally came to that piece of land again.
However, to Kang Xingyi's disappointment, there was still a wasteland in front of him, with no trace of houses at all.
He was just about to tell Lin Xi that this was the place, but he saw Lin Xi directly reach out and brush away the half-man-high weeds in front of him, and walk into the depths covered by the weeds.
Kang Xingyi looked bewildered.
Good boy Lin Xi stopped immediately, she seemed to have discovered something, she lowered her head to look at her feet, then turned and said to Kang Xingyi.
"Come here, you are looking for that old lady and her family, and you have found them."
What? !
Kang Xingyi widened his eyes and hurried over.
It has been who knows how long since anyone has stepped on this piece of land. Not only are there countless weeds, but there are also many thorns. Kang Xingyi even has difficulty setting foot.
But he was really curious about what Lin Xi had discovered, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and rush through.
Then, he saw a mound of earth half a person's height at Lin Xi's feet.
Kang Xingyi has many years of experience in outdoor activities, so it is natural that he cannot fail to recognize what this mound of earth is.
If nothing unexpected happens, this mound should be a grave.
But just now Lin Xi said that she went to visit her grandmother...
Could it be that she meant that this grave mound was the old lady's home?
Kang Xingyi's eyes widened.
"Master, are you kidding me? This joke is not funny at all..."
When Kang Xingyi said this, his voice began to tremble.
At this time, Lin Xi gave him another heavy blow.
"By the way, here's a pack of biscuits and bread. Take a look and see if they're yours."
Kang Xingyi's whole body froze, and he didn't even know how he walked over.
Then, under the clump of weeds that Lin Xi pointed to, he saw a familiar packaging bag.
Those biscuits and bread were the thank-you gifts he gave to the old lady that night.
Seeing this scene, Kang Xingyi finally couldn't bear it anymore, his face turned pale and he stepped back repeatedly.
When he came to look at this piece of land before, he didn't come over to take a closer look because he saw too many weeds and thorns. He just stood at a higher place and confirmed that there were no signs of buildings on the land. Then he felt that this was not the old lady's home.
Naturally, he had never noticed the two packaging bags in the field.
Now seeing the familiar packaging bag that inexplicably appeared in the wasteland, combined with what Lin Xi just said, Kang Xingyi finally believed it.
The old lady he met that night might not really be a living person, but a ghost...
Her home doesn't exist either.
It is even possible that it is this grave mound!
In other words, it is possible that he stayed with the ghost of an old lady near the grave that night.
But he did not get wet in the rain that night, and his memory of eating was also very clear.
What is going on here?
Kang Xingyi asked these questions with a pale face.
In response, Lin Xi replied, "There are many possibilities. It could be that the ghost used its soul power to create the scene, or it could be that it deceived your senses and used something else to pass it off as real, or it could be that it simply implanted a false memory in you..."
So there are actually many possible situations.
You can only ask the parties involved to find out what the specific situation is.
No, it should be the ghost in question.
After hearing this, Kang Xingyi was silent for a long time.
Just when Lin Xi thought he was going to let it go, he suddenly raised his head and mustered up the courage to say to Lin Xi.
"Master, can I ask you for one more favor?"
Lin Xi gestured for him to speak.
Kang Xingyi said.
"I want to see that old lady again...㱕ghost, can you help me?"
Lin Xi didn't expect that Kang Xingyi would want to see him again.
But this is not a difficult task.
It's just that it's still early now. If you summon the other party at this time, it will inevitably cause great harm to the other party's ghost.
Therefore, Lin Xi told Kang Xingyi that they would have to wait until the evening.
Kang Xingyi didn't mind waiting, as long as he could see the old lady again.
Although he was panicked and scared when he first learned that the old lady was not human, he gradually remembered the time he spent with the old lady that night.
She doesn't seem to be a bad ghost.
Regardless of her purpose, she did take him in for one night.
He still had to fulfill his promise and come back to thank her again.
Afterwards, Kang Xingyi took Lin Xi to the town for lunch, and then they found a store in the town to rest for a while. When it got dark, they set off again towards the old lady's grave.
What Kang Xingyi couldn't believe was that when he was about to reach his grandmother's grave, the familiar small bungalow appeared again!
At the door of the small bungalow, there stood a familiar thin figure, smiling at him.
