After an hour of traveling, Wang Tong finally arrived at Hanshui Village alone.
The barren mountains and ridges around Hanshui Village are occasionally accompanied by the chirping of insects and the biting cold wind, making people's hair stand on end.
After getting off his horse, Wang Tong came to the stone tablet with "Hanshui Village" written on it.
The bright moonlight falls on the blood-red characters of "Hanshui Village", giving people a feeling of hairy bones.
Looking at the village not far away, Wang Tong frowned slightly, held the long sword in his hand, and walked in.
As soon as we entered Hanshui Village, we were hit by the strong Yin Qi. The village was so silent that there was no sound at all. It was so quiet that it made people feel scared.
It seems like the whole village seems to be dead...
Walking forward, with the help of the moonlight, what Wang Tong saw was a state of ruin.
There are no lights in the village.
The further you go in, the more something is wrong.
"Is there anyone? Is there anyone?"
Wang Tong shouted.
But no one responded.
Wang Tong chose a house, opened the door, walked into the courtyard, and touched the stone table in the courtyard. What fell into Wang Tong's hands was a hand full of ashes...
Push open the door.
The smell of corpses hit my face.
In the room were the bodies of a middle-aged couple, with maggots crawling around on their bodies.
The appearance of their death was extremely strange, with their hands in the shape of claws and their expressions distorted, as if they were scared to death.
Wang Tong quickly left this courtyard and entered several other courtyards one after another.
In a courtyard, the corpse held a short knife and inserted it into his own throat.
In another courtyard, the corpse was holding a white cloth and tightly wrapped around his neck, as if he was strangling himself alive!
Some people died next to the wall, which was full of blood, and they died after hitting the wall.
Opening the gates of one courtyard after another.
There was no living person, just corpses one after another.
this place......
It's a dead village!
...
Several attendants lowered the coffin.
Chen Lu's heart skipped a beat, and he became more and more confused.
"Mr. Chen, inside the coffin is our daughter." Mrs. Mo said coldly, her voice a little hollow and filled with eerie terror.
"Our daughter's name is Mo Shuangshuang.
Tomorrow, Mr. Chen will hold the wedding ceremony with our daughter."
Mr. Mo also said coldly.
"Let me meet the young lady."
"yes."
Several attendants lifted the lid of the coffin.
Chen Lu swallowed, took a deep breath, and looked into the coffin with his heart pounding.
With just one glance, Chen Lu found that he couldn't take his eyes back.
Lying quietly in the coffin was a beautiful lady, dressed in a red wedding dress, with her hands crossed and resting on her body. She seemed to be walking peacefully...
She slept so softly, and the curves of her body were simply soothing.
She has a stunning appearance that makes people want to touch her when they look at her.
Her eyelashes are long and curved upward, which is particularly charming, exuding the quietness and elegance of a lady, and her beauty also reveals a bit of dignity.
And her straight nose bridge is the icing on the cake and the finishing touch.
It seemed that she slept so lightly that Chen Lu didn't dare to breathe loudly, for fear that he would wake up the beauty in his dream next moment.
Her hair is black and shiny, and people can't help but be controlled by the color of her hair. There is such a rich fragrance hidden in the beautiful hair, which goes straight into the nose.
It's just that because the woman died, the girl's skin, which was originally very fair and tender, is now as white as white paper, without any blood.
It is unimaginable that in such a small village, there would be such a woman, so beautiful and otherworldly.
Even in Chen Lu's heart, he couldn't help but feel a sense of regret.
It is heartbreaking for such a woman to die at her best age.
"I wonder if Mr. Chen is still satisfied with our Shuangshuang?"
Mrs. Mo asked, staring at Chen Lu.
And it was Mrs. Mo's tone of voice that was emotionless and just like reading on a stick that made Chen Lu come back to his senses from the woman's beauty.
"Fully...satisfied..."
Chen Lu bowed to him.
Can I be dissatisfied?
I dodged the hydrangea countless times, but the hydrangea suddenly fell on my head. Your target was me from the beginning.
If I say I'm not satisfied with what I've done, you can just let me go...
But why are you targeting me?!
Chen Lu felt that he had entered a script. No matter how he resisted, he was forced to act according to this script...
"As long as you are satisfied, Mr. Chen, please come back and have a good rest. Tomorrow is the wedding ceremony.
Since Mr. Chen is not from this village, he can temporarily use Guanjia Yi's house to hold the wedding.
Shuangshuang has always regarded Butler Yi as her grandfather."
"Tomorrow?" Chen Lu organized his conversation, "Um... the matter of getting married is of great importance. Can I go back to Luo City first and inform my relatives and friends?"
"Our daughter will be handed over to Mr. Chen from now on. Please treat Mr. Chen well," Mr. Mo said coldly.
"No, I think I have to go back and get ready."
"Master Chen, please get up early tomorrow. Let's go first." As if they didn't hear Chen Lu's words, the Mo family couple got up and left.
"No, Mr. Mo, madam?"
Chen Lu extended Erkang's hand, but the Mo family couple left the attic like puppets on strings.
The coffin was re-covered and the attendants carried it down.
Chen Lu walked out of the attic with a foggy head. At this time, the crowd had dispersed, and only Hui Mingwei was waiting outside.
"Chen Lu, what's wrong?"
Seeing Chen Lu coming out, Hui Mingwei breathed a sigh of relief and walked up quickly.
"Let's talk about it when we get back, my brain is overloaded." Chen Lu rubbed his temples.
Back at Uncle Yi's house, Uncle Yi still has such a warm and iconic smile...
But Chen Lu and Hui Mingwei are already used to it.
After closing the door, Chen Lu and Hui Mingwei talked about everything that happened in the attic.
Hui Mingwei was silent after listening...
Afterwards, Hui Mingwei told Chen Lu that after he entered the attic, the people dispersed like zombies without any conversation.
Both of them felt as if they were on stage, and whether they wanted to or not, they had to finish the play.
Of course, the protagonist is Chen Lu.
"Mingwei." Chen Lu suddenly had a guess in his mind.
"Um?"
"Is there a possibility?"
Chen Lu expressed what he was thinking.
“Everyone in the village is dead?
We are in an illusion now.
And all this is just a dream?"
