Maybe I shouldn't die.

Chapter 122 True and False Son

After Fang Yue left, she wandered around the city for a while before heading towards Hang Yitong's home. This time, nothing unexpected happened. After the doorman asked about her purpose, he respectfully invited her in.

She didn't have to wait long, as Hang Yitong's family soon arrived. After giving the things to her father, Fang Yue refused their attempts to keep her and left the Hang Mansion.

It was getting dark at this time. She sensed the spiritual consciousness she had left behind before and found that it was no longer in its original location.

The couple should have returned home. Fang Yue did not hesitate and followed the direction of the spiritual sense. No matter what the other party was hiding the truth, it was worth taking the monster hurting people seriously.

Following the guidance of her divine sense, she quickly left the city, crossed the outskirts of the city, and came to a thatched cottage on the roadside. When she arrived at this place, she realized that the evil spirit in the house was even stronger.

It seems that this monster lives with the couple. No wonder there was such a strong demonic aura around the couple before.

Not knowing what kind of monster was inside, Fang Yue did not dare to probe its spiritual sense easily in order not to alert the snake. She looked around and saw a big tree with lush branches and leaves near the cottage. After thinking for a while, she jumped onto the tree.

She didn't have to wait long before she heard voices coming from inside. It was the voice of the male stall owner.

"Today, the female knight said that there is evil spirit in us. Do you think it is Xiaohan..."

Before he finished speaking, a female voice interrupted him:

"Didn't you say before that he was just a liar? There are no monsters in this world. You're overthinking it."

The male stall owner sighed deeply, his tone somewhat helpless.

"In fact, you have already noticed it a long time ago. Xiaohan has become a different person since he came back from the drowning. He used to be naughty and playful, but suddenly he became well-behaved and sensible.

Although Xiaohan said that he lost his memory after falling into the water, you raised Xiaohan, and you can't hide the details of the changes in his lifestyle habits from you.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have made up an excuse to move out of the city. What master said that we should live outside the city to make money? Didn't you find that master on purpose?"

Yes, not being able to recognize people can be considered amnesia, but how could the living habits of the same person change so much? She just didn't want to believe that result.

The female voice was silent for a long time before she spoke with a choked voice:

"You already know everything, why didn't you expose me?"

The male voice spoke again, with a more soothing tone:

"Xiao Han is also my child, how could I not notice his changes? I have long wanted to ask a Taoist priest to take a look, but I was just worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it.

Moreover, after spending some time with him, I have also seen that Xiaohan is a good kid now, and it is definitely not him who harmed Xiaohan."

The female voice finally couldn't help but burst into tears:

"My dear Xiaohan, I am sorry for you, but I really can't bear the pain of losing you again."

The male voice comforted her:

"I know, I know everything. Xiaohan is a good kid. Let's just pretend that he has never left and live happily as a family."

The female voice shook her head.

"I can't be so selfish. The knight also said that if we are eroded by the evil spirit for a long time, our bodies will get worse and worse. I really don't want to leave Xiaohan, but I don't want you to get hurt because of this."

The male voice replied softly:

"It doesn't matter, as long as you are happy. I am an orphan abandoned by my parents. It is my luck to meet you."

The figures of the two people hugging were projected through the window through the dim candlelight, and also startled Xiaohan who was about to come to find his parents.

He noticed that his parents' expressions looked strange when they came back today, and was just about to ask them if anything had happened when he heard these words.

When he heard the evil spirit, he couldn't help but feel cold hands and feet, and his whole body froze. However, the conversation between the two of them afterwards warmed his cold heart little by little.

He couldn't help but sob silently. It turned out that his parents had known his identity for a long time, but they had still been so kind to him.

When he heard his parents say that evil spirits were harmful to the body, he finally couldn't help but push the door open and kneel down in front of the couple's bed:

"Mom and Dad, I'm sorry. I didn't know that the evil spirit would be harmful to your body. I didn't mean to harm you."

The couple was a little surprised that Xiaohan was outside. After thinking about it carefully, they guessed that the child probably saw that they looked unhappy and wanted to come and ask about the situation.

Unexpectedly, the woman happened to overhear their conversation. She quickly got out of bed, picked up the tearful child, held him in her arms and comforted him.

"I know, I know everything. Xiaohan is a good kid. Xiaohan won't hurt us."

Xiaohan, who was gently comforted, finally couldn't help crying out loud. She had been worried about her identity being discovered during this period, and she was also afraid of hearing that the evil spirit would harm her parents' bodies.

All of this was vented out in this cry.

The middle-aged man watched the scene helplessly, got off the bed, hugged both the mother and the child in his arms, and comforted them silently.

After both of them calmed down, the middle-aged man asked hesitantly:

"Since you are not Xiaohan, then do you know what happened to Xiaohan?"

The boy in the woman's arms was slightly stunned when he heard this question. He looked at the woman hesitantly, not knowing whether he should say:

A trace of pain flashed across the woman's face, but she nodded firmly at him:

"You tell me, mother can bear it."

The boy then lowered his eyes and spoke softly:

"That day, I was absorbing moonlight to practice, and I saw a corpse floating upstream. Because I was really curious about human life, I turned into his appearance.

Later, when you came to find me, I followed you back. I didn't plan to stay for long, but my parents were so good to me that I couldn't bear to leave.

I really didn't know that my evil spirit would harm you. If I knew that my evil spirit would hurt my parents, I would have left long ago."

The guess in her heart was confirmed. Her Han'er was really dead. She couldn't even deceive herself. The woman couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart and a fishy-sweet taste in her mouth. She opened her mouth and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

The two people in the room panicked when they saw this. They quickly supported the woman and asked anxiously:

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Ma'am, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

The woman wiped the blood from the corner of her lips, tears streaming down her face. She pushed the man's hand away, stared at the boy, and asked sternly:

"Where is Han'er's body? What did you do with it?"

The boy in her arms was frightened by the harsh tone and quickly explained:

"I buried him on a high ground near the river."
