The bride bowed slightly, and a cold female voice sounded, without any fluctuation, as if it was colder than the falling rain.
A gust of cold wind blew by, causing the red hijab on her head to flutter continuously, and her chin was vaguely visible, but her face could not be exposed.
Bai Mo looked at the crowd and jokingly said, "Look, this guy is really dedicated, and he can still continue to act like this."
He was the only one laughing in the audience, but the others couldn't laugh at all.
Especially for Lu Zhan, who already had some understanding of the Beast Mountain, his face was solemn, and he was somewhat unable to understand the current situation——
Why can this weird bride see them?
On the way into Masked Beast Mountain, Lu Zhan once met an old beggar halfway. In order to survive, the guy told him a lot of information about Masked Beast Mountain.
For example, there will be a fork in the road at the end of the forest path in Masked Beast Mountain. Each of the three paths has its own name. From right to left, they are named greed, anger, and ignorance.
As for the three words "greed, anger, and ignorance," Lu Zhan knew something about it.
Greed, anger, and ignorance are Buddhist concepts, also known as three poisons, three stains, and three fires. Buddhism says that these three poisons harm the body and mind, making people sink into the cycle of life and death, and are the root of evil, so they are also called the three unwholesome roots.
Greed refers to the desire for a favorable state, which must be obtained, otherwise the heart will not be willing to do so;
Anger refers to being resentful of an adverse state, losing one's temper when one does not get what one wants, being irrational and acting on impulse;
Idiot means not understanding things, not knowing right from wrong, not distinguishing between good and evil, making mistakes and taking wrong actions, and causing all kinds of evil deeds.
Although I don’t know if the greed, anger and ignorance here have anything to do with Buddhism, but it can be considered as a piece of information.
The place where everyone is currently is actually the road on the left, which corresponds to the "Crazy" road.
According to the old beggar, once one embarks on the path of madness, the intruder will unconsciously reveal his or her inner thoughts, using as a blueprint some of the things he has occasionally heard or seen, or even desires in his heart, and will use the countless things buried in the Hidden Beast Mountain as a blueprint.
Choose the most suitable story among the stories and present it.
Lu Zhan was obsessed with the information about the tomb keeper, so he saw Mu's past.
Although Bai Mo seemed to be "unconcerned", perhaps he saw the wedding and even became the groom's official because he heard the word ghost marriage mentioned in his nonsense yesterday.
If Lu Zhan didn't know why this road was a crazy road before, now he has some guesses——
There are countless stories on the road of infatuation that can make people experience it immersively. However, stories are just stories and cannot be compared with reality.
Perhaps due to the passage of time, or perhaps someone did it deliberately, many things seem to have lost their authenticity and become something else.
Just like what happened to Mu's mother, the evil ghost.
In the scene in the mind of the gravekeeper, the evil ghost may be guilty, but it is definitely not as unreasonable as what he has seen before. The human position is certainly correct, but it is not truly impeccable.
In the story version of Hidden Beast Mountain, the positions of humans and evil spirits are quite clear, and what is shown is almost the purest good and evil——
People are good and ghosts are evil.
And what if the truth is not the case?
Most of the stories in Crazy Road will allow intruders to see what they desire, even if it is unconsciously. Even like what everyone has experienced before, intruders will be absorbed into the story from time to time, making them become the protagonist of the story.
Become a member and deepen your sense of involvement.
Of course, this process is actually dangerous, such as Xia Yuxi who has been ignored for a long time...
Lu Zhan suddenly thought that maybe it was because he couldn't defeat any of the guys he met recently, and he felt so aggrieved and eager to get information about the tombkeeper that he became a character in the story who seemed to have extraordinary status and strength.
Bar.
However, generally speaking, the stories in the Hidden Beast Mountain will not affect each other. It is like a fantasy but not a fantasy. The intruders will each enter the story embodied by their own desires, and will only become the characters in their own stories.
Role.
In other words, this wedding story should be specially prepared for Bai Mo. He is the only one who can take the role, so the bride should not be able to see other people.
But now it seems that this is obviously not the case.
Everyone present seemed to have changed from outsiders to characters in the story.
What was strange was not only this, Lu Zhan actually saw a modern library from a distance that was obviously inconsistent with the style of the ancient house... Isn't this an obvious intrusion?
However, he was not surprised. Perhaps as long as there were restricted areas with gravekeepers, the rules would be slightly different from before.
After a short silence, perhaps because everyone was silent, the bride Yang Xiaowan spoke again, with a sullen tone in her tone.
"Everyone is silent. Do you have any dissatisfaction with your family and your husband?"
Everyone could hear the coldness in Yang Xiaowan's words, which seemed to contain a hint of danger.
...Only Bai Mo couldn't hear it.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood."
And maybe he was the only one who could calm down Yang Xiaowan. When the latter heard this, his tone gradually softened and he said, "Oh, what do you mean, husband?"
Bai Mo said seriously: "At most, they will only be dissatisfied with you. It has nothing to do with me. Who asked you to act at this time?"
Everyone: "..."
Yang Xiaowan: "..."
The next second, Yang Xiaowan snorted coldly, looked around the crowd, and said, "Everyone, is this true?"
As she finished speaking, there was sudden lightning and thunder in the sky, and the rain suddenly intensified a bit.
At the same time, in the wedding room, a male corpse in ancient costume suddenly opened its eyes and looked out the door with a ferocious expression, revealing a set of sharp teeth.
The bride was obviously angry, but she didn't know what she was angry about.
Han Xue held up the black umbrella and frowned: "I always feel that this woman is very dangerous. Is she real or fake?"
"You get behind me first."
Gu Yan, who was beside her, pulled her behind him, looked at it carefully, and said calmly, "It was false before, but now it seems to be true... interesting."
Seeing this move, Han Xue felt warm in her heart, and carefully hid behind Gu Yan, whispering: "Are you concerned about me?"
"Huh? That's not true."
Gu Yan glanced at Lu Zhan, who was not far away, and said, "These guys are probably all enemies. I'm afraid you will prevent me from taking action later."
The smile on Han Xue's face froze for a moment, and she could only stand behind him and sulk.
"Who are you?" Gu Yan ignored her, turned to look at the bride in her wedding dress and asked.
"I just said that my name is Yang Xiaowan, and I am the master of the Yang Mansion. But who are you? It seems that you are not the guests invited to my house, right?"
Yang Xiaowan said coldly, "Today is the wedding day of the slave family. I don't want to cause trouble, but if you can't give me a reasonable explanation, then don't blame the slave family for being ruthless."
"Regardless of whether you are ruthless or not, I will never show mercy when I take action." Gu Yan said lightly.
Seeing this, Bai Mo, who was smiling on the side, couldn't help but change his expression. Wasn't he just fine just now? Why did he suddenly look like he was about to start a fight?
"Lu Jun, this..."
Lu Zhan also had a headache. He could fool Bai Mo, but he obviously couldn't fool this guy named Yang Xiaowan...
But what's going on with this woman? Why does she feel like she's something I can't defeat?
He couldn't stop crying in his heart.
Seeing that Gu Yan and the bride were at war with each other, as if they were about to fight in the rain at any time, Bai Mo said anxiously: "Don't fight anymore!"
Han Xue sighed: "They haven't fought yet."
"I know, I just suddenly remembered a bad joke..."
Bai Mo said helplessly, "Let's all have a good time. It's still raining outside. What are you planning to do?"
Hearing his voice, Gu Yan ignored him, but Yang Xiaowan quickly came back, her aura suddenly disappeared, and she whispered: "Husband, please don't be angry, I am not a aggressive person."
Bai Mo said with a toothache: "Can you stop calling me husband?"
Yang Xiaowan said aggrievedly: "Since you and I have entered the bridal chamber, and we are husband and wife, we are naturally husband and wife. Don't you want to be such a callous person?"
The reality of husband and wife?
Lu Zhan was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly became strange.
I haven't looked into the wedding room for just a few minutes. Are these two people already married?
So fast...
Yang Xiaowan explained, "The slave family just saw that it was getting late and it was raining heavily outside. They were afraid that the guests would catch cold outside, so they wanted to let them go into the house to take shelter."
Bai Mo curled his lips: "Do you think I'm a fool?"
Han Xue in the distance nodded slightly, thinking to herself, aren't you just a fool?
"If your husband doesn't believe it, forget it."
Seeing Bai Mo staring at Yang Xiaowan for a long time, Lu Zhan's heart sank. Just when he thought Bai Mo had discovered something weird, he heard the other party suddenly speak.
"You are obviously still wearing a hijab, but why do you seem to be able to see the road?"
Yang Xiaowan smiled and said: "The slave family naturally has its own tricks. If your husband is really curious, you can just lift the hijab."
Hearing this, Bai Mo, who was squatting down to look into the hijab, quickly stopped, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'm not interested."
Yang Xiaowan smiled slightly and seemed to be in a much better mood. She turned around and said to Gu Yan and the others: "It's freezing outside now. You might as well come into my house and rest for a while."
"Yes, yes, we will wait until the rain stops." Bai Mo agreed. He was not worried about the rain, but he had a lot of doubts in his heart, so he just wanted to find a quiet place to ask Lu Zhan.
He walked towards the wedding room: "How about we go inside and sit for a while, maybe the rain will stop later."
"Husband, don't talk nonsense. This is our wedding room. How can we let outsiders in?"
Yang Xiaowan scolded, and then said sternly, "The Yang Mansion naturally has guest rooms for entertaining guests. Come with me."
After saying that, she didn't care how everyone responded, and walked in one direction.
Everyone looked at each other, but Gu Yan was the first to move and follow.
"Interesting," he said.
Han Xue quickly followed.
"It's still too deep into the drama."
Bai Mo sighed slightly and looked at the bride's back, thinking that this guy really seemed to be able to see, but she was clearly wearing a hijab...
So strange.
Lu Zhan walked at the back, his mind racing with thoughts.
He rarely saw forbidden creatures that could talk, and even fewer humanoid creatures. But recently, he saw several such creatures in succession, such as Mu, and the old beggar he met on the road before.
What's interesting is that existences like this can be called humanoid taboos - whether these humanoid taboos are beings in the restricted area or not, they all seem to have a similar characteristic, that is, they like to insist on keeping secrets.
They keep a lot of things secret, as if if they say anything more, they will disturb certain beings and bring about some consequences they don't want to see.
In order to prevent Lu Zhan from killing him, the old beggar revealed a lot of information about the Beast Mountain, openly and covertly, but he always avoided talking about other more important issues, such as his own identity.
Even if Lu Zhan threatened his life, he never spoke.
The same is true for Mu, she won't hold back anything she wants to say, but she will never say anything she doesn't want to say.
The scary thing is that Lu Zhan can actually vaguely sense the strength of the old beggar. If it is a real fight with real swords and guns, he may not be the opponent of the old beggar.
But I don’t know why, maybe due to some kind of restraint, the old beggar bowed to him and relied on begging to survive.
And Lu Zhan knows very well that the person who can make him feel troublesome is at least the strength of an A-level transcendent...
This is clearly just a D-level restricted area!
If...he means if.
What would it mean if all the talking humanoid forbidden creatures he knew of so far belonged to a bygone era?
The gravekeeper, the silent one, the old man buried in the coffin, the old beggar, Mu... Could these humanoid taboos be characters from the same era, and survive to this day for some reason?
Their strength is extraordinary. They have escaped a certain period of buried history and have survived from the era of destruction to this day. They are now distributed in various restricted areas, as if they are dormant.
So, is it possible that there are more similar humanoid taboos hidden in other restricted areas?
It's simply unimaginable.
Judging from various traces, it is very likely that the era in which the tomb keeper lived no longer exists, and there are no records in history, but maybe the coffin burial ground he once saw is a microcosm of that era.
Lu Zhan guessed that after the development of the Prison Suppression Division, the overall strength of that era would be much stronger than the current strength of human beings.
Because at least as far as he knows so far, there is probably no extraordinary human being who can live as long as the gravekeepers.
But not only are these humanoid taboos alive, they are also hiding in various restricted areas for unknown purposes.
If they say they have no purpose, even if they kill Lu Zhan, they won't believe it.
These existences either do not appear or appear in clusters.
Lu Zhan always remembered something Mu said, so he was always worried.
Mu said that she wasn't sure if she could leave the restricted area, but she didn't want to leave for the time being.
In other words, she might be able to leave the restricted area at any time if she wanted to.
So Lu Zhan naturally remembered what researcher Xue Hongyu said——
"The restricted area is not a restraint, let alone a protection."
When the two things are linked together, it’s really scary to think about it.
What would the world be like if more beings were able to enter and leave restricted areas at will, just like Tombkeeper and Mu?
Of course, he believed in the previous research of the Stele Research Institute and found that the restricted area stele did have the ability to prevent restricted area creatures from leaving the restricted area, but was it possible that... this ability was limited?
If strong enough, creatures in the restricted area may be able to leave the restricted area.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Lu Zhan quickly determined his next primary goal.
The most important thing for him right now is to find out the position of these "humanoid taboos" as soon as possible.
Are they human beings? What is their attitude towards humans and restricted areas?
These are all urgent to know.
But in fact, Lu Zhan was not optimistic.
First of all, since Mu is the daughter of an evil spirit, at least in the past era, her senses for humans were definitely not very good, and she obviously has an unusual relationship with the tombkeeper...
Based on the principle of fighting against the same enemy, they should have the same stance.
And if all human taboos are absolutely malicious to humans...
Just thinking about it makes me shudder.
Lu Zhan calmed down and thought that after leaving the restricted area this time, regardless of whether the superiors agreed or not, he had to report his findings to the council.
He really wants to know what will happen after the tombkeeper wakes up...?
