As Ma Lao said, the environment is harsh, the resources are scarce, and because they are often attacked by the sea tide and wind, the buildings on the island are very dilapidated, and it can be seen that their lives are very difficult.

However, no matter whether it is hard or rich, according to Ma Laozhang, the inhabitants of the island have existed for nearly a thousand years, and the reproduction from generation to generation has only reached today's scale, which makes Ye Dong can't help but sigh that manpower is really endless, no matter how difficult the environment is, it can survive tenaciously.

Getting closer and closer to home, Mr. Ma's footsteps were getting slower and slower, and he even stopped at the end of the day, which made Ye Dong very puzzled: "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

Uncle Ma turned around, his eyes were already moist: "Back then, we left together with hundreds of people, but now I am the only one who has come back, I, I don't have the face to see them!"

Ye Dong comfortingly stretched out his hand and patted Uncle Ma's shoulder and said, "Uncle, although this is indeed a tragic thing, I can't blame you at all, and you don't have to blame yourself too much!"

Uncle Ma wiped his face hard twice with his sleeve and then raised his head and said, "Brother Ye, I, can I ask you for something." ”

"Uncle, please speak!"

Mr. Ma was a little embarrassed and said, "That, can you take out the money given by the president and give it to my dead fellow families?"

For the thousand taels of silver, Ye Dong had already told Mr. Ma that it was for him, and he was just keeping it on his behalf, after all, he couldn't fly with the silver, and Mr. Ma resolutely disagreed, so he had to take it from Ye Dong.

Now that he is about to return home, facing those neighbors, Mr. Ma is too guilty in his heart, so he has to think of the money.

Ye Dong smiled slightly and nodded: "Uncle, I said that the money was originally for you, and you can use it freely." ”

"Brother Ye, thank you, thank you!"

Ye Dong deliberately reached out and plucked out his ears and said, "Uncle Ma, along the way, my ears are about to become cocooned just by hearing the words Xie Lu Xie!"

"Hehe!" said Mr. Ma laughed innocently.

With the compensation of the silver tael, Ma Laozhang's heart was obviously a lot better, so he continued to walk forward with Ye Dong, and soon, a small town appeared in front of him.

Don't look at Toyowa Island as an isolated island, but the area is at least the size of two cities, so the island is also divided into towns and villages.

The place where Uncle Ma lives is a small town, which is a bit similar to Autumn Leaves Town, so this makes Ye Dong's heart feel quite touched, he has been away from home for a long time, if he can still have the life to go back this time, he must go home for a while, accompany his relatives, and not go anywhere.

It's late at night, and it's dark in the town, obviously everyone should be asleep, but when Mr. Ma stood at the entrance of the town, he was stunned, kept turning his head to look around, and muttered to himself: "Hey, why has it changed so much? What about the blacksmith shop at the entrance of the town before? And the big locust tree, why is it gone?"

Ye Dong stood behind the old man, looking at the town, but there was an ominous premonition in his heart, but he didn't say it.

As he spoke, the old man walked into this strange and familiar town, all the way to a dilapidated building.

Seeing this building, the old man's face showed a relieved expression, obviously, this should be his home, and nothing has changed much.

However, just as the old man was about to step forward and knock on the door, Ye Dong suddenly stepped forward, grabbed his arm, shook his head at him and said, "Uncle, wait!"

In fact, there was no one in this house, Ye Dong had been following behind his uncle just now, and he had already taken in the entire town with his spiritual sense, and found that the whole town was like a dead town, and it was too quiet, there was not even the slightest sound, and no one lived at all.

Originally, Ye Dong didn't want to say it, after all, the old man had just come home, and he couldn't bear to let the old man's hopeful heart be hit, so it was better to let him find out by himself, maybe it would be better, but I don't know what the road was about, when Mr. Ma stretched out his hand to knock on the door, a hint of alarm suddenly appeared in his heart, which made him have no time to think about it, so he hurriedly stopped Mr. Ma.

Mr. Ma looked at Ye Dong with a blank face, obviously not understanding why Ye Dong wanted to stop him, but he knew that Ye Dong had a purpose in doing this, and in his mind, he also regarded Ye Dong as a god, so he was not angry.

Ye Dong smiled slightly and said, "Uncle, don't worry about it first, wait for me to take a look!"

After finishing speaking, Ye Dong made a color to the red wolf, and the latter immediately walked to the side of Uncle Ma, and the hairs on his small body stood up.

Ye Dong walked to the door less than half a meter in front of the door and stood still, not in a hurry to push the door, but stood there, closed his eyes, and magnified his spiritual sense endlessly, and even among the five acupuncture points related to the five senses, there was a faint overflow of spiritual energy.

With the current strength of Ye Dong's spiritual sense, under normal conditions, as long as the spiritual sense is released, even the slightest sound, movement and fluctuation of the spiritual energy will not be able to escape, but now his spiritual sense obviously feels that there is nothing in the house, but he is constantly thinking about the warning signs in his heart, so he will be so careful, raise the spiritual sense to the strongest, and carefully check the situation in the house.

This method really worked, and the situation in the room was revealed little by little in his spiritual sense.

The area of the house is not large, only two rooms and a kitchen, and the furniture placed in it is also very ordinary, but it is covered with dust, and it looks like no one has lived in it for a long time, and there is nothing special about it.

Ye Dong wondered in his heart while looking at it, it stands to reason that such an ordinary place, how could he let himself have an alarm?

But he believed in the signs that had arisen in his heart, for they had saved his life several times, and the town was a bit odd.

Although it has been more than four years since Mr. Ma left home, and it is possible that there is a little change in the family and even the neighbors' family members move away, but the whole town is empty like this, and the buildings in the town are also unrecognizable, then there must be a problem!

If it weren't for some irresistible natural disaster**, no one would want to leave their hometown, and besides, this is just an island with a limited area, where can they move to?

As Ye Dong's spiritual sense continued to go deeper, he finally came to the inner room and saw a bed, and there was a vague black shadow on the bed, at first Ye Dong thought it was just a quilt, but when the spiritual sense finally approached the black shadow, he suddenly found that the black shadow was actually a person!
