C98

When I heard that Old Master Zeng had committed suicide, I was stunned for a moment before feeling a bit sad. Although that old man had opened a quarry before, he had also changed it to a fruit garden and was quite sincere towards people.

But why did he suddenly commit suicide, without even the slightest bit of news regarding it to Ceng Xiaoqiang?

And who was the one calling? How could it be so easy to determine that he had committed suicide?

I don't know why, but I can vaguely remember the figure in the nursery.

Because I'm a classmate, and I just left the Ceng Family as a guest, I immediately followed Ceng Xiaoqiang to the Ceng Family.

It was still early, let alone the mourning hall, they had not even moved the corpses yet. When the workers saw that Ceng Xiaoqiang had returned, they immediately brought him to the back of the mountain to explain the situation.

After Uncle Chen, Old Master Zeng stayed in the office early in the morning. He had even made Ceng Xiaoqiang's mother marry a large amount of money and said that if any workers left, they would give them their wages.

There were indeed a few workers who left this morning. Old Master Zeng did not lose a single cent and each of them even received a bonus.

He was still having lunch with everyone at noon and advised them not to worry and not to lose face if they wanted to leave.

Big Brother had been discussing the matter of Uncle Chen in private all day. After all, a person had died. There was no police report and the hospital hadn't sent anyone to the hospital.

At dinner, when nobody saw Master Zeng go to eat, Ceng Xiaoqiang's mother went to call him. When she found out that he was not in his office, she called him.

Ceng Xiaoqiang was still f * cking scolding him. Why would he go there alone?

In the end, the Old Master Zeng only laughed and told her how much money they still had and how to arrange it. After he died, he would take Ceng Xiaoqiang to sell his place and leave with Ceng Xiaoqiang.

Ceng Xiaoqiang's mother immediately told him not to spout nonsense, and then called the workers to run towards the Miao Lin.

When they went over, Old Master Zeng was still alive. He had used a rotten branch to cut his throat, and killed himself. Fresh blood flowed out of the branch and onto the ground, dyeing a large area of the tree seedlings red.

Seeing Ceng Xiaoqiang's mom walk over, he still tried to smile, but he was already speechless.

The one who called Ceng Xiaoqiang was one of the workers in the workshop, and he was just hugging the old man's body tightly, he was already a little dazed. Of course, some workers had reported it to the police, but the police still hadn't come.

After all, there was only one police station in the town, so the police could not be arranged that quickly.

When Ceng Xiaoqiang and I arrived at the Seedling Raising Forest, it was already surrounded by workers. When they saw us arrive, all of their faces darkened, but they did not say anything.

Upon entering the nursery, a sweet and fishy smell immediately gushed into his nose along with the faint fragrance of the grass, making him feel slightly absent-minded.

Ceng Xiaoqiang's mother held the Old Master Zeng's head tightly, and sat on the ground without moving an inch. She was mumbling something, but no matter what, she couldn't hear it clearly.

An aunt was sitting beside him, trying to pull him away. She even smiled at him, "Go back first, I'm fine. I'm just accompanying Old Zeng. He's scared by himself."

"Mom!" Ceng Xiaoqiang's eyes reddened, he walked over and opened his mouth, but no matter what he did he could not say the sad truth.

"Xiao Qiang." His mother smiled and waved at him, "Bring ChenDuo to dinner. I'll sit with your father for a while longer."

"Mom, you should eat together with me. Dad is — he —" Ceng Xiaoqiang swallowed his later words back when he saw his mother who was hugging the old man's head and gently caressing his face.

I pulled at Ceng Xiaoqiang. We can't understand this feeling, but we can understand it.

"It's a mess here. Go back first." The corners of Ceng Xiaoqiang's eyes turned red, he tried his best to hold back his tears, and forced a smile: "When I have time another day, I will come and find you."

She even used her hand to scratch Tian Tian's nose: "I don't have any roasted fruit wood chicken for now, can I eat it in a few days?"

He looked almost exactly the same as his mother. Despite the pain in his heart, he still pretended to be fine and lightly smiled at others.

I patted him on the shoulder, but I didn't know how to comfort him.

"Are you blind?" However, Tian Tian rubbed his nose, looked at Ceng Xiaoqiang, and asked: "Are you all blind?"

"Tian Tian." This devilish brat really wasn't as carefree as Hu Guyue, he really knew how to read people's eyes.

Tian Tian took off my hand, looked at Ceng Xiaoqiang, and said: "Because the one who died was your father, couldn't you see what the problem was?"

Hearing Tian Tian's words, I jolted awake and slowly turned my head to look at Old Master Zeng's corpse.

The lady had already left. Other than Ceng Xiaoqiang's mother, the rest of the workers were unable to get close to her. They could only wait for the police outside.

The entire rearing forest was very large, yet very quiet.

I looked around but couldn't find what I was looking for.

Although Old Master Zeng still called for backup plans before she died, she immediately committed suicide after the call. This could definitely be considered suicide.

But where did his ghost go?

For those who had just died, their souls would leave their bodies, but they wouldn't go too far, and they would quietly watch as their loved ones faced the sorrow of their deaths, and then walk around the place where they remembered or desired to stay, and that was the seventh day of their souls. On the night of the first seven, he would return to his home and be taken away by the Messenger.

However, he did not see the ghosts in the Old Master Zeng, and there was no trace of ghosts in the entire Nurturing Forest.

I looked at the rose bush in the blink of an eye. It was so quiet that there wasn't even the slightest movement. The few roses that had merged with Uncle Chen's ghost last night were already nowhere to be seen.

"Don't be rash first." Seeing that Ceng Xiaoqiang seemed to want to rush over, she immediately pulled him back: "Auntie is still so sad right now, wait for this matter to be resolved peacefully, we will ask the two people at the rose bush, we will confirm it."

Ceng Xiaoqiang shook his head hard at me and grinded his teeth, but his eyes still held a trace of hatred as he looked at me.

Looking at my appearance, it seemed that I had done something wrong, causing me to slowly withdraw my hand.

This matter may also be my responsibility. After all, if I didn't drag Ceng Xiaoqiang in, he might still be able to calmly be the owner of his Black Network Cafe.

If I didn't send the Tree Spirit's sapling over, then the Falling Flower Lady among the roses wouldn't have attacked Uncle Chen so quickly. Maybe she would have been at ease waiting for Uncle Chen to take care of her forever.

Old Master Zeng might not die — —

"I'll wait at the side. I'm familiar with a few people from the police station. I'll come out and receive them later. Calm down for a bit." I took two steps back and whispered to Ceng Xiaoqiang.

No matter who it is, it isn't easy for me to handle this kind of thing. Back then, when my father was unconscious, I was the same as well.

Standing by the rosebushes, I silently looked at the enchanting flowers, thinking of the sudden panic on the face of the woman from the Falling Flower Cave that night.

She knew that something terrifying had arrived in the nursery, so she immediately planted a flower bud on Uncle Chen's body, trapping him and her within the roses for all eternity.

But why was it the rearing forest, why did that thing not come out from the rearing forest, and why did the Old Master Zeng have to die in the rearing forest?

Thinking about this, I turned my head and stared at the seedling rearing forest filled with people. There wasn't much difference in that place, it was just that it was night time. The street lights were lit up, and many flying bugs were flying around the seedling rearing forest.

Tian Tian seemed to be a little angry because of me pulling her back twice. He sat cross-legged on the grass at the side and watched the ants play.

There was a small grass sapling that had just emerged from the ground under her feet. After being climbed up by the ants, it even swayed a little.

I suddenly remembered that day when I was planting the sapling in the tree, the worker told me how high the tree would grow before it could be moved away. At that time, I also said why it had to be moved away, but couldn't it continue growing?

At that time, Ceng Xiaoqiang pushed me a little, signaling me not to ask.

When I came out of the nursery, I didn't see the Falling Flower Cave Girl among the roses, but when I went in, the Falling Flower Cave Girl was in the roses, watching the students take pictures.

A bad idea sprouted in my head, and I immediately headed towards the nursery.

But Ceng Xiaoqiang pulled me away, then shook his head: "You can go, never come in here again."
