For a moment, I seemed to have forgotten my real situation and let the horse under me carry me all the way into the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar village.
What is familiar is that what you see in front of you is undoubtedly Fengling Village.
What was strange was that the people I saw were people I had never seen before. They were all women, young and old.
The 'old smoker' was always by my side, smoking and greeting the women. He looked happier than me.
"Marrying?"
When I came back to my senses, I looked around, feeling a little more complicated in my heart. I was also sober, but subconsciously I didn't want to ruin this scene. Looking at all this, I was a little moved.
I've already experienced this scene once.
It was also arranged by the old smoker in order for me to marry the woman I had been dreaming of, but that time what I got was a coffin and a reason for me to leave Niang'er Village.
Now, what will be the outcome of this real dream-like scene?
I was silent.
Until I saw that room again.
The 'old smoker' on the side looked at me and said with a smile: "You brat, what are you still doing? It's time to get married."
I took a deep breath, then jumped off the horse. Looking at the familiar house in front of me, I pushed the door open without hesitation. The women who gathered at the same time also cheered.
That scene is something I have never seen in my life.
I've thought about it too.
When I return to Niang'er Village and snatch her back from the hands of the city god of Niang'er Village, I will also have such a scene.
I once again rode a big horse, led the wedding procession and the eight-carriage sedan to take her home.
But I never thought about it.
But it seems to be the first to be realized here.
The moment I opened the door, I felt inexplicably nervous.
I knew everything was fake, but I still couldn't help but look forward to it. Until I saw a woman wearing a red wedding dress and a red hijab being helped out, my heart started to tremble.
Got up.
Is it her?
no……
I feel bitter in my heart.
But maybe out of selfishness, or maybe it was the obsession that sprouted in my heart at this moment, I still walked over and held her hand, then led her outside the house and welcomed her into the sedan.
Everything falls into place.
My heart also became more and more confused at this time.
I hope this is true.
I feel this is true.
Maybe...this is true!
Even I didn't notice it. At this moment, there was a smile on my face. The moment I got on the horse again, I couldn't help but cheer.
The wedding team was very cooperative and the festive music played again.
‘Old Smoker’ once again led the horse, led me, and led the entire wedding team towards my home.
Everything is peaceful.
No fear.
There was no panic.
There is no Niang'er Village City God...
After a while, we returned home.
I dismounted again and walked to the sedan to pick her up.
This time I felt the warmth of her hands.
Warm.
soft.
This feeling made my body tremble, and a trace of sadness appeared in my heart.
It's fake after all...
I don't know who shouted at this time: The auspicious time has arrived.
Pay your respects!
Then the more lively music started playing again, and I and the people around me were urged to enter the house.
The 'Old Smoker' sat on a chair in the hall.
People around kept cheering.
It's like this is really my wedding.
Looking at the unfamiliar faces.
The people around me seemed familiar, but they made me feel indescribably strange.
I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Is this what I want?"
Desire Pass.
I took a deep breath, then turned to look at the person next to me. Without waiting for the call to worship, I lifted the red hijab.
A blurry face appeared in front of me.
I'm a little disappointed.
Even in my desire.
Can't I see what she looks like?
She was obviously stunned by my actions, and her body also took a few steps back. The blurred face began to change continuously, and the surrounding scene began to break at this moment.
Her face is becoming clearer and clearer.
That is a face full of charm.
It's just that there's a bit of distortion in the charm.
"You...can you become her?" I looked at her.
When she heard what I said, her face became even more disbelieving. She seemed to be frightened by me.
With a scream, her figure began to break.
I was even more disappointed.
Ghosts...is this all?
Looking at the scene around me that had changed again, I couldn't help but sigh, and the bitterness in my heart became a little more bitter again.
But I know it very well.
I'm almost.
It was just a short step away from collapse.
If I hadn't felt the warmth of her hand.
Maybe I believed it unknowingly.
The woman I have been dreaming about always appears in my dreams. I have never expected that she will really stand in front of me.
Taking a deep breath, I cheered up again.
The Desire Level caught me somewhat off guard, but fortunately it passed without any danger. So what is the final self-level?
However, when I looked around, I was stunned.
I don't know when I passed through the magic circle, and in front of me was the stone house with the entrance to Huangquan Road.
Did I pass?
I'm a little confused.
According to my calculation.
I should have passed the Water Ghost, Mountain Ghost, and Desire levels, but I haven’t passed this last level yet. Why did I come out?
Could it be that Zhang Mingyu made a mistake?
Are there only three levels here?
When I was confused, a hand patted my shoulder.
I turned around subconsciously and was stunned again.
Zhang Mingyu?
"You came out too?" I said.
Zhang Mingyu smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, I came out a little earlier than you."
I stared at him for a while and then said: "Why does this magic circle only have three levels? Didn't you say there are four levels?"
Zhang Mingyu scratched his head and said with embarrassment: "I saw it wrong."
"I only found out after I came here."
"The fourth level and the third level are actually the same level. If you pass it, you have passed it."
"Really?" I looked at him suspiciously.
Zhang Mingyu nodded, then pulled me and said, "Go in first."
"Didn't you say that there is Huangquan Road inside?"
Hearing Zhang Mingyu's words, I looked towards the stone house.
But I didn't move in a hurry, but thought about it and asked.
"What should you call me?"
Zhang Mingyu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at me with a strange expression.
"Junior Brother Li."
"That's what you asked."
"What else can I call you?"
When I heard this, I narrowed my eyes and laughed.
