On the day of the wedding, the weather was extremely clear and the guests arrived one after another in the beautiful countryside.

There were a lot of guests, most of whom were invited by Tao Yang, so Shen Shuning didn't know many of them.

He was in the room, arranging his clothes in front of the mirror.

Tao Yang and Zhao Xiwei were wearing best man outfits and accompanied him in the room.

It is imperative to separate from Pei Nian, because the two of them change clothes in different rooms, but fortunately, their rooms are not very far away, which saves Shen Shuning from having to suffer that kind of pain.

He was a little nervous.

Zhao Xiwei smiled and comforted him.

Under Zhao Xiwei's comfort, Shen Shuning calmed down somewhat.

He glanced at the time.

5 minutes left.

Five minutes had never felt so long to him.

Today is the most important day in his life, Shen Shuning is very clear.

He will marry Niannian as his wife, and he will have a real family, which was unimaginable for him in the past.

He took a deep breath, his eyes were yearning for the future, with the light of stars.

He will finally get rid of those painful pasts, welcome his new life, and the nightmare will go away.

At this moment, his body is filled with unprecedented vitality, as fresh as a newborn sun.

"Tao Yang, do you know?" He looked at Tao Yang with a smile: "Sometimes, I feel that fate is torturing me, and sometimes it is blessing me."

Fate made him almost become an out-and-out monster, and fate made him go to the ordinary end he wanted.

Fate gave him an unbearable curse, and gave him a hope to solve this curse.

That's Niannian——

The appearance of Nian Nian is another beam of light different from Tao Yang, allowing his eyes to see normal things, allowing him to live a normal life.

Holding scissors, Tao Yang is trimming a bouquet of roses. Later, Shen Shuning will deliver the bouquet of roses to Pei Nian.

"Fate will always favor you." He lowered his eyes and trimmed off a somewhat lifeless rose, speaking softly.

At the wedding venue, children from the orphanage also came, or wore small white suits and white skirts, playing happily on the lawn.

Everything looks so beautiful, so beautiful that it is enviable.

dang——

The bell that set the reminder rings.

Time is up.

Tao Yang put the scissors aside, and placed the pruned roses in Shen Shuning's arms, "Let's go..."

He also seemed to be in a good mood, his lips curled up slightly.

Wearing a black suit, Shen Shuning walked towards the door holding a bright red rose bouquet.

Then, his eyes slowly darkened.

dang——

The bell rang again.

As the darkness faded, Shen Shuning slowly opened his eyes.

He didn't realize that his eyes were covered with an invisible haze.

The sun sank into the clouds, and the bright and scorching light faded away. Shen Shuning hugged the flowers, and accompanied by Tao Yang and Zhao Xiwei, walked towards the predetermined location.

He stopped and saw his fiancée standing not far away, waiting for him.

Wearing a snow-white wedding dress and holding a snow-white rose in her arms, the fiancée was standing not far from him, looking at him intently with clean, pure and light eyes.

Then, the fiancée smiled slightly, and she took light steps and walked towards him.

The two walked towards each other and exchanged the bouquets in each other's hands.

Looking at the flower bouquet he handed over, Shen Shuning blinked.

Is it a rose flower?He remembered...it should be roses...

【pa...】

No, he misremembered, it was a rose flower, and what Tao Yang handed him was a rose flower.

Under the watchful eyes of the dean, the deputy dean and others, the newlyweds who exchanged flower bouquets walked towards the red carpet arm in arm.

Amidst the children's singing, Pei Nian held his lover's arm, smiling brightly and sweetly.

She and her lover walked on the red carpet covered with rose petals. At the end of the red carpet, the priest was holding a Bible and waiting for her and her lover to arrive, and recited the oath of the soul contract.

"A-Ning, I'm so happy—"

Her tone made no secret of her excitement.

The lover beside her responded softly: "Me too..."

On the screen at the end of the red carpet, the wedding video of the two was being shown, and the pastor stood there smiling.

dang——

The bell rang again.

The pastor looked at the newlyweds walking in front of him and showed a blessed and kind smile. He announced the beginning of the wedding and prayed to God for His blessing.

Family candles and marriage candles are lit in turn.

The pastor calmly opened the Bible and recited the scriptures methodically.

"Marriage is established by God, and a happy marriage is bestowed by God; may our God bless you and your families with all the blessings in heaven and the blessings hidden in the earth—"

"May your love life be like the fruit of a fig tree gradually ripening; and like a vine blossoming and giving off fragrance, as a testimony of the fragrance of Christ, together with the heavens and the firmament, telling the deeds and glory of God every day and night..."

"May you... lah... love each other... lah..."

Strange voices gradually mixed in with the pastor's words.

However, the strange sound quickly disappeared.

It appeared briefly, but it was caught by Shen Shuning's ears.

Is it an illusion?Shen Shuning was stunned, thinking vaguely.

【pa...】

In his mind, the familiar voice sounded again, trying to suppress Shen Shuning's confusion.

Then, the wedding continues with the exchange of rings.

He was face to face with his fiancée, who lowered her eyelashes and gently extended her hand.

Beautiful, delicate red diamond ring, that's their engagement ring, which needs to be taken off and put on a wedding ring.

It's just... Shen Shuning's eyes fell on the slender fingers of his fiancée.

He had a difficult thought in his mind: Is it... this... the color?It seems to be... and it seems not to be...

Confusion made him stop for a long time without moving.

But the fiancee on the other side was very patient, watching him quietly, waiting for him to take it off.

However, after waiting for a long time without getting a response, she turned her head and looked at Tao Yang.

"Shen Shuning, it's time to take off the engagement ring and put on the wedding ring for your wife."

Tao Yang, who was holding the engagement ring box in his hand, reminded Shen Shuning.

【pa...】

"Oh..." Shen Shuning finally came to his senses, he stretched out his hand and touched his fiancée's finger.

Ice cold, just a little warm temperature.

When taking off the red diamond ring, Shen Shuning vaguely remembered something.

"The red ring... ah... lost... re..."

【pa...】

Shen Shuning turned his head in a daze, reached out to take the ring in the ring box, put it on his fiancée's finger, and said softly: "Okay..."

His fiancée also turned sideways, took the ring from the ring box in Zhao Xiwei's hand, raised his finger attentively, and put the ring in bit by bit.

Shen Shuning smiled slowly.

Then, the priest's voice sounded in his ear.

"Tuaimes Dieu?"

Very light, very soft voice, it seems to be an inadvertent question, and it can be answered without much thinking.

However, when Shen Shuning subconsciously wanted to answer, his smile disappeared, his pupils suddenly shrank into the shape of cat's eyes, and he suddenly looked up at the pastor.

The pastor looked down at him with a benevolent smile, and he asked again.

"Tuaimes Dieu?"

【pa...】

A voice in his head, trying to entice him to answer that question.

Answer him, answer him, answer: oui, jel'aime.

"Tuaimes Dieu? [Do you love God?]"

The corpse of the boy with the little mole fell beside him, and the tall people wearing masks or masks asked the weak, immature and dazed child in a gentle tone.

"oui, jel'aime. [Yes, I love God.]"

"The vows are over, please ask the groom to kiss the bride—"

The pastor closed the Bible and spoke softly with a smile on his face.

Pei Nian stood where she was, with her lips bent, looking at her lover and groom.

The singing of the children continued, and the bridegroom took a step forward, lowered his head, and kissed her lips.

And when the kiss she longed for and expected fell.

Her deed received no response.

There was a tingling pain on her lips, and then the stinging pain spread rapidly, and the whole face festered.

She slowly touched her face, and her sweet and gentle smile gradually disappeared.

She turned around and looked around.

The children in white suits and white dresses lost their disguise and turned into shadowy monsters who could only sing with their voices.

All the guests stood up from their seats one after another. Some of them had bone wings, some had no faces filled with blood, and some were entangled by tentacles——

The festered face melted into blood and fell to the ground, melting a hollow.

"Ah, Tao Yang—"

She whispered the name, as if this person had been crushed into ashes between her teeth, she looked across, her "lover..."

The whole body of "Lover" is covered with green mucus, and under the pale skin is rolling deadly venom.

That's not her Aning, it's a puppet made to imitate Aning, so where is her Aning now?

It doesn't matter... After she finishes cleaning up the things here, she can go to find her Aning.

A black, terrifying blood-colored mist spread from under her feet to the surroundings, a huge different butterfly flapped its wings, and a pair of red eyes opened in the black mist.

The sunlight was completely swallowed by the clouds, and not far away, dark clouds swept over.

The pastor repeated the question again.

【pa...】

No, can't answer.

Can't... answer.

The deep fear in my mind prevented the hypnosis and bewitchment of that voice.

A drop of sweat fell from Shen Shuning's thin and pointed chin.

【pa...】

More and more frequent voices, like calls from the abyss.

"No… no… he murmured. He started to back away.

This wedding... no...

【pa...】

It was a sound that repeated almost every second, and no one could ignore its existence anyway. It was repeated over and over again in his mind, and it could not be driven away or erased.

Shen Shuning's face was painful, and he whimpered.

Then, he discovered that this voice was extremely familiar.

He has listened to the comfort of the owner of this voice several times, and has taken anti-psychotic drugs under the order of the owner of this voice several times, and even stepped into the mental recovery warehouse with the help of the other party. .

He looked at Zhao Xiwei abruptly, his pupils unsteadily dilated.

He saw the opening and closing of the other's lips, which coincided with the voice in his head.

no, do not want.

Don't hypnotize me again--

Don't control me anymore-

The dormant and suppressed things in his body woke up and began to contend with that voice.

Pain...

It was as if a barbed stick was stirring in his brain, stirring the brain and the brain together.

Bang!

The repeated voice completely disappeared.

Zhao Xiwei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said weakly, "I can't control it anymore."

Shen Shuning knelt on the ground with a dazed expression.

His eyes were fixed on Zhao Xiwei, as if he had forgotten the existence of time and space.

Who is Zhao Xiwei talking to...?

Zhao Xiwei was... talking to the people around him...

He rolled his eyes, followed Zhao Xiwei's gaze, and turned his head slowly and with difficulty.

Then, he saw the people around him who he was most familiar with, trusted, and relied on.

His body began to tremble, and there was no more blood on his face. He raised his head and stared blankly at the other party, as if he had lost his soul.

That was the second time he heard this sentence.

Whether it is the first time or the second time, there is no change.

"I'm very sorry……"

"Ningning..."

"No..." He couldn't believe it, almost desperate.

how come?how is this possible?

He suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, slowly lowered his head, and looked at his fingers.

He laughed softly, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes one by one.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

He thought that what he could get rid of was that he could get rid of the painful past and find a new life of himself. He thought that fate would bestow on him and not torture him forever.

However, in the end, he was still unable to break free, and he was always in a dark cage.

He lives in an isolated island created by man, and he thinks he has been saved and reborn.

He looked up again, looking at his fiancée.

The familiar face faded from his fiancée's face.

Then, another face.

There are a pair of cold eyes on that face, the coldness of snow-capped mountains and dense forests, and the coldness of polar deep pools.

Shen Shuning stiffened again.

No, this face is also very familiar to him.

The fog covering that person's face in his mind dissipated completely, and he finally remembered what the other person looked like.

The fiancée came over, and he touched Tao Yang's body casually, and Tao Yang's body softened, and he was put on a wheelchair and taken away.

Shen Shuning looked at the other party.

In those dark eyes, there are the emotions of his fiancée, Tao Yang, and other, more complicated emotions, and finally return to coldness and calmness.

"who are you?"

He murmured and asked each other.

who are you.

Cold fingers raised his chin, stroked it lightly, and answered him in a soft and cold voice.

"I'm Tao Yang..."

"It's number zero..."

"It's Adrian..."

"Yes, your fiancée—"

All vitality disappeared from Shen Shuning's body at this moment, and he became that Shen Shuning in the underground experiment base again, a lifeless and breathless puppet.

He got the truth.

But I would rather never get the truth.

The author has something to say: it is very immersive when written with the music of the traveler.
