Ye Ran made a judgment almost instantly.

He was extremely agile, quickly opened the window, supported himself on the windowsill with one hand, and jumped towards the roof.

"Ye kid?"

Sister Baoer's doubtful voice sounded from behind, but Ye Ran had no time to answer her at this time.

Let's deal with the person peeping on the roof first!

Ye Ran rolled over and stood steadily on the roof.

Looking around, he found that there was no one on the roof.

There was only a brick that was overturned.

There was also a big rat on the roof that was as big as an outstretched palm, gray, followed by a group of small rats, biting the big rat's tail and running away.

Ye Ran: "..."

Could it be a rat?

No, it's impossible. This brick was fired decades ago, it's heavy, and the traces of overturning are brand new.

These rats can never do it.

Let him run away!

Ye Ran touched his palate with the tip of his tongue, feeling indescribably annoyed.

"Guest, guest!"

Just then, a panicked voice suddenly came from downstairs.

Ye Ran walked to the eaves and saw Wang Gui waving at him in a panic, shouting:

"Guest, you can't stand on this roof!"

"This house is too old, and the weather here is bad, with a lot of rain and humidity. The beams are rotten and it is easy to collapse."

"Come down quickly. It's too unsafe."

"You are all rich people and guests. If you fall and get hurt, we can't afford it."

Wang Gui said naggingly.

Ye Ran exhaled and looked around the empty surroundings.

Then he asked, "You have been downstairs all the time? Did you see anyone go down from the roof?"

"No, guest."

Wang Gui was obviously stunned for a moment, probably thinking back, and then said, "My wife made dinner and asked me to bring it to you. On the way here, I saw you suddenly go up to the roof."

"By the way, guest. You can't go upstairs, and you can't take off the tiles. If it rains, it will leak."

What the hell.

Is Wang Gui saying that he went up to the roof and took off the tiles if he didn't beat him for three days? ?

Ye Ran glanced at him and said unhappily:

"Your broken house leaks whether there are tiles or not."

Wang Gui laughed dryly with a guilty conscience and said nothing.

Ye Ran jumped down from the roof directly.

Before Wang Gui's eyes widened in horror and before he could scream, he stood steadily in front of him.

"Give it to me."

Ye Ran stretched out his hand.

Wang Gui opened his mouth wide, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He said a short "ah", gave a thumbs up sincerely, and said:

"Great guest!"

After that, he handed over the wooden barrel in his hand.

Ye Ran carried the wooden barrel full of food, looked at the empty street again, and asked:

"Although your county is small, there must be seven or eight hundred people."

"Why haven't we seen a few people since we came here?"

This county is a little weird.

Especially when every household has closed the door tightly, coupled with the gloomy weather, the silence makes people feel creepy.

"This..."

When Ye Ran asked this question, Wang Gui's expression was a little stiff.

But soon, he scratched his head, smiled and said:

"We are all farmers. We have to get up at four or five in the morning to farm, and go to bed early at night."

Is that so?

Ye Ran glanced at him, knowing that Wang Gui was not telling the truth, but he did not care.

This small county town of Banai seemed ordinary, but there was a strange and depressing feeling everywhere.

Especially the sound he heard on the roof just now, which made Ye Ran very concerned.

People will not disappear suddenly.

But he also knew that Wang Gui was telling the truth about this, and he might not have seen that person.

If that person fell to the ground, with the speed at which Ye Ran climbed to the roof just now, he would definitely see that person running away on the ground.

Could it be that...

Ye Ran looked at the ancient buildings next to him. Would that person go to another house through the roof?

Could it be another forbidden area player?

Or is it related to the person who sent him the express?

It's too late to look for him now.

But he is not in a hurry.

Since that person came, he must have something to ask for. Since he didn't get it, he will come again.

Ye Ran stood there holding the wooden barrel and thought for a while, then said:

"Come here, we have something to ask you."

…………

Ten minutes later.

"What?!"

In the stilt house, in front of the dining table, Wang Gui stood up in surprise and asked:

"You, you want a map?"

Ye Ran asked back: "As far as I know, you often buy and sell the maps from the Ten Thousand Mountains.Fish and herbs are sold to make a living. Don't you have a map? "

"Yes. There is no map."

Wang Gui was stunned for a moment, and then added: "There is no paper drawing."

"Besides, this forbidden area is very strange. People who entered the mountain in the early years have disappeared. We ordinary people don't go there."

"If you want a map or a guide, you have to find Panma Daddy."

"The prey and herbs in our village... are all hunted by him. We buy them from him and then find ways to sell them."

Good guy.

Isn't this just a middleman making a profit?

Ye Ran silently complained in his heart and looked at the time again.

It's not too late.

He said decisively: "Wang Gui, tell me the address of Panma's house, I will visit after dinner. "

After all, they are definitely not the only ones who want to get the forbidden map.

The young man nodded silently.

And Sister Baoer had a silly look on her face, eating the food on the table like crazy.

After finishing all the food sent by Wang Gui, she immediately gave a thumbs up:

"I want it, I want it."

"It's so delicious, so good! Banai, I like it very much. ”

How could I not like it?

Ye Ran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Thinking of Sister Bao’er cooking red umbrellas in the mountains, he knew that she couldn’t cook.

Besides, Sister Bao’er was from Shu, so she should be able to eat spicy food. Banai is a humid mountain village, so in order to remove moisture, a lot of chili peppers are added to the food.

So it unexpectedly suited her appetite.

He and the little brother put it down after eating a few bites.

Ye Ran has a light taste and doesn’t like to eat too spicy food.

And the little brother was silent all the time, as if he had something on his mind.

On the way to Panma’s father’s house, Ye Ran looked at the little brother’s expression and asked softly:

"Little brother, what’s wrong with you?"

Although the little brother always had no expression.

But he felt that the little brother didn’t seem to be in a very good mood.

The little brother was silent for a while, looked up at him, moved his thin lips, and uttered a few words.

"I don’t remember anything. "

The young man saw Banai, where he had stayed for a long time.

He lived in the room where he used to live.

But he still didn't remember anything.

Is he blaming himself?

Ye Ran laughed, gently hooked his shoulder, and said comfortingly:

"What's the matter? It's normal not to remember, which means that you didn't have a deep impression of these things at the time."

"Besides, we haven't entered the forbidden area yet. Maybe you will remember it when you go there."

"It doesn't matter even if you can't remember it. Don't you still have me?"

He is here.

Everything about the Banai Ancient Building is analyzed clearly.

Clearly?

Seeing the sunny and confident smile on Ye Ran's face.

The young man's expression moved, as if he eased a little, nodded silently, and didn't speak.

Just then, Sister Baoer suddenly said:

"Papa Panma's house, right? We are here."

"But we seem to be late. "

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Ran turned his head and looked towards the door of Panma's house.

Sure enough, the tightly closed door of Panma's house opened.

A group of people in black came out, surrounded by a white-haired old man wearing a very textured khaki long windbreaker and exuding majesty from head to toe, and got into the car parked in front of Panma's house.

Jude Kao?!

The moment the car door opened.

Ye Ran's pupils dilated slightly.

In addition to Jude Kao, he also saw a person who should not have appeared in this forbidden area.
