No wonder she had been feeling uncomfortable these past two days. She had always thought that she was hurt by the pressure from the ice dragon.

Little did he know that it was caused by his sudden arrival in the mortal world, the thin spiritual energy, and the body's instinctive inability to adapt.

She took out two pills of nourishing spirit pills from her storage ring, swallowed them, and quickly recovered from the discomfort in her body.

After looking at the sky, we prepared to land and rest for a night before continuing.

After flying for a while, we found a small town.

Gu Lili flew to a small forest not far from the town. She scanned the area with her spiritual sense and found no human presence. So she landed the flying boat in the forest.

When she walked out of the grove, she looked like a young female knight from the mortal world, and there was no trace of spiritual energy in her body.

As the sun sets, Gu Lili, carrying a long sword on her back, walks quickly towards the town. The sunlight stretches her shadow very long.

As soon as she entered the town, Gu Lili noticed something was wrong.

Why is the temperature in this small town so hot and so quiet? If she remembered correctly, this should be dinner time in the mortal world?

There was no noise in the town, nor the sound of children playing and laughing. It was so quiet that it was even a little eerie.

What’s even more bizarre is that there are big red “囍” characters pasted on the doors of many houses on the street, but there is no festive atmosphere at all.

She released her spiritual sense and found a small inn in the town, which was also the only inn, and walked quickly towards the inn.

It felt even more eerie as we walked along. It wasn't even completely dark yet, but the inn had already closed its doors.

When he scanned inside with his spiritual sense, he saw that there were clearly many people in the inn, but it was so quiet that it seemed as if no one was there.

Gu Lili walked forward and knocked on the door of the inn.

"Who?"

The door of the inn did not open as she had imagined, and a man's low, questioning voice came through the door.

"Boss, I want to stay in the hotel, do you have any guest rooms?"

With a creaking sound, the door of the inn opened a little.

A middle-aged man in his forties with a shrewd face poked his head out and took a look at Gu Lili's outfit.

He looked behind her again, then quickly opened the door.

"Girl, are you alone? Come in quickly. How dare you be alone outside at this late hour?"

After saying that, without waiting for Gu Lili to react, he reached out and pulled her in. Then he looked outside the door a few times before closing the door with confidence.

Gu Lili did not answer her, but asked curiously:

"Boss, has something happened in our town? All the doors are closed before dark, and the streets are empty, with no one walking around?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Gu Lili, then glanced at the long sword on her back, hesitated for a moment, and said,

"The girl is not from here, is she a ranger? How is her martial arts?"

Gu Lili pretended to be mysterious and said with a cold look in her eyes,

"The shopkeeper must have seen that I dare to walk outside alone. I must have some skills to rely on."

The shopkeeper thought about it and decided to tell Gu Lili the truth, "Lady, this is a long story. The girls in our town were targeted by monsters.

About half a year ago, a girl went missing from the town every half a month, and they were all young girls, and the people in the town were in a panic! "

The innkeeper told the story, "When the monster came, it came on a gust of black wind. At first, it took advantage of the night and pasted a big red "囍" character on the door of the girl it liked, indicating that the marriage was settled.

When this happened for the first time, the family thought it was a prank.

Unexpectedly, when the family woke up the next day, they found that their daughter was missing.

From then on, every half a month, a girl would be chosen. No matter where the family hid their daughter, the next day, the girl would be missing from the chosen family. "

"Then you didn't send anyone to investigate?"

"Why has no one gone to investigate? At first, some young people in the town who had some skills went to investigate, but no one came back."

"Later, the government got involved. The police from the government office teamed up with some knights and hid on both sides of the street, trying to catch that thing. In the end, all these people disappeared."

"Later, the people in the town didn't dare to resist anymore. Someone came up with a plan: all the unmarried girls in the family should hurry up and get married.

Who would have thought that the monster would start to capture the women in the town indiscriminately, and many unmarried young ladies and married women were missing.

Everyone thought about leaving this town and moving to another town.

But it turned out that it was like hitting a ghost wall, and I couldn't get out at all, but people outside could come in.

After entering, we couldn’t get out. What was even worse was that the weather in the town started to get hotter and hotter.”

What he didn't dare tell the girl was that there was a girl from outside who stayed in their inn and also disappeared overnight.

This girl looks like a fairy. I'm afraid she's been spotted as soon as she entered the town today. Oh, what a sin.

Gu Lili asked for a Tianzi room and asked the waiter to bring her a bucket of hot water tonight and not to disturb her unless necessary.

As night fell, a strange atmosphere suddenly enveloped the entire inn.

Gu Lili found that there was a force holding her down. In order not to alarm that thing, she did not dare to break free, nor did she send out her spiritual sense to check.

She had an invisibility talisman on her body, and now she was just like an ordinary woman, lying on the bed in the inn.

"Madam, madam~"

A voice that sounded neither male nor female came from outside the window of the inn. Then a gust of wind blew the window open, and a cloud of black mist floated towards Gu Lili.

"My lady, haha, you are so beautiful! Will you marry me?"

Gu Lili lay on the bed, just moving her eyes to pretend to be weak, but she was speechless in her heart.

You have already called yourself a husband, yet you come to ask me whether I should marry you or not. Is that appropriate?

Then, Gu Lili saw the group of things that looked neither human nor ghost, carrying her with them, and disappeared in the inn in an instant.
