Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

Zhou Wenyan felt his throat itchy.

He looked down at the figure standing not far away.

It may be because of the human design, Shen Dongqing looks a little thin in this dungeon, her black hair hangs limply on her forehead, her black and white eyes seem to be covered by a layer of fog, and she can't see clearly. real.

Zhou Wenyan coughed lightly, suppressing the itching in his throat, but he couldn't help the itching in his heart.

"One more time."

Shen Dongqing didn't know why, but he still fulfilled his wish: "Brother."

As soon as the words finished, Shen Dongqing heard a series of warning sounds in his ears.

[Please keep the player setting]

[Keep the characters! ! ! 】

Listening to the sound of "brother" ringing in his ears, Yu You was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.

Why can the love game be completed no matter which dungeon?

But the game is also very helpless, even if these two people play one copy and waste the other, it still can't stop them from playing the game again.

Because the infinite nightmare game itself is also restricted by the rules.

As long as the means are legal, it can only watch the dungeon being damaged, but cannot participate in it.Even if it kills the lives of these two people, it has to rely on the rules or let other players do it.

I just didn't expect that none of these NPCs and players would be useful.

Shen Dongqing was a little at a loss: "Personal design?"

What character set?

Although Zhou Wenyan couldn't hear the game's warning sound, he could guess something from Shen Dongqing's expression, so he stood up and changed the topic.

"Is there anything we can do for you?"

Shen Dongqing was very straightforward: "I don't know."

The game weakly reminds:

【Let them cut the word "Happy】

Only then did Shen Dongqing change her words: "Go and cut the word "Happy."

Probably because Sishui Town is isolated from the outside world, there are almost no modern elements in it. The buildings are all old-fashioned wooden structures, short and dark, and there is a feeling of breathlessness when entering it.

A group of players walked into the lobby directly opposite the door, where scissors, white paper, and red paper had long been prepared.

The beautiful JK girl said strangely: "Aren't marriages always marked with red Happiness?"

"The red happiness is for the living." An old voice sounded from the corner, "And these are for the dead."

A gust of wind blew past, making the white paper on the table rattle.

The players couldn't help trembling, and looked at each other, only to realize that this was not what the players in the team said.

"Who?"

"Who's talking?"

The players searched for a long time, and saw a figure walking out from a dark corner.

It was an elderly man, his back was bent and his face was covered with wrinkles, but he didn't have the kindness and kindness unique to the old man, instead he had a gloomy feeling.

When those eyes looked over, it was as if they were being targeted by a dangerous poisonous snake.

"Second Young Master." The old man called out to Shen Dongqing.

【This is He Bo】

【He has been staying in the old house and is loyal to the Shen family. You also respect him very much】

Shen Dongqing nodded: "Uncle He."

Uncle He turned his cloudy eyes and glanced at Zhou Wenyan who was standing beside him. Strangely, his attitude towards the two brothers was completely opposite, and he directly ignored Zhou Wenyan.

He walked tremblingly in front of the player, and tapped the crutch in his hand on the ground: "Marriage in the dark is one life, one death, corresponding to one red and one white, don't make a mistake, if you make a mistake..."

He Bo showed a smile, and the layers of wrinkles on his face squeezed together: "Bad things will happen."

After finishing speaking, Uncle He walked out slowly, leaning on his crutches.

When he was about to step out of the hall, he turned his head and said, "The person who picks up the bride will come back before dark. You should be ready before then, otherwise...the bride will be angry."

He Bo coughed hard, and the short figure gradually disappeared from sight.

The players looked at each other in blank dismay, and did not dare to touch the things here casually.

The man in the suit pulled his bow tie: "Let's do it, we don't have much time."

The wall clock on the wall passed by frame by frame. It is already three o'clock in the afternoon. I don't know what season it is now, but judging from the sky outside, I am afraid that it will be dark at five or six o'clock.

Just one question...

Here are big men, no matter how you look at it, they don't know the craft of paper-cutting.

Their eyes were focused on JK beautiful girls.

JK beautiful girl: "I won't."

Shen Dongqing picked up a pair of scissors, excitedly: "Do you do handwork? But I haven't done it."

He is very interested in things that he has never experienced before.

Zhou Wenyan was silent for a moment: "...I won't either."

This is something he rarely does.

There are exactly six scissors on the table, no more, no less, corresponding to the people present, and everyone has to cut a stack of happy characters.

Fortunately, there are many people and strong strength. A group of people thought about it, and finally they were able to cut out a crooked happy character.

Shen Dongqing looked at the cut paper: "It's finished!"

Zhou Wenyan reached out and wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose, and said, "It's amazing."

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, the players next to them muttered.

"Aren't they brothers?"

"According to the setting, this is the case."

"But it doesn't look like it. Is this the legendary orthopedics?"

The sky darkened a little bit.

The players were concentrating on cutting the paper, probably not so engrossed in class and exams back then, and there was only the sound of paper-cutting in the whole hall.

"Ah!" Suddenly there was an exclamation.

The others stopped and looked over.

The non-mainstream was a little sloppy, and accidentally gave his finger to the scissors, making a big cut, blood dripped all over the floor, and even stained the white paper being cut red.

The non-mainstream gasped in pain.

Fortunately, the JK beautiful girl took a band-aid, turned it out and bandaged the wound for the non-mainstream.

Non-mainstream injured one hand and couldn't use his strength anymore, so he could only sit and watch.Because there was an extra non-mainstream part, the others worked harder, and in the end they rushed to cut all the white and red papers before dark.

It seemed that the time had been set, the players had just put down the scissors when Uncle He limped back.

Uncle He stared at the Chinese character "囍" placed on the table, and paused for a moment on the half-cut piece of paper that was stained red with blood, before he said: "The team to pick up the bride is coming soon, please stay away. "

A group of people followed He Bo into the side hall.

The hall and the side hall are separated by a mahogany screen, and the movements in the hall can be seen through the grids.

Waited about ten minutes.

Suddenly there was a sound of beating gongs and drums at the door.

The non-mainstream lay on the window, looked around, and saw the wedding procession walking in.

It is not quite correct to say that it is a wedding ceremony. The people in the team are dressed in sackcloth and mourning clothes, only a red string is tied around the waist, and they are throwing paper money as they walk, all of them are expressionless.

thump—

Six men came in carrying a heavy mahogany coffin and placed the coffin in the center of the hall.

From the direction of the non-mainstream, it can be seen that the coffin is not covered, and a figure in a wedding dress can be seen lying inside.

Non-mainstream swallowed: "This, this is the bride?"

The JK beautiful girl also thought of a question: "Just now Uncle He said that marriage in the dark is a life-and-death, and the bride is here, so who is the groom?"

The man in the leather jacket remembered the character setting, looked at Zhou Wenyan, and joked, "Old Zhou, isn't the groom you?"

It looked like a joke, but on closer inspection, he was shaking all over.

Zhou Wenyan ignored the man in leather.

Ever since the coffin was brought in, his condition was not very good, his brows were wrinkled and his face turned slightly pale.

But the other players also reacted in the same way. After reading it, they only felt that he was frightened.

Shen Dongqing asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Are you really scared?

Zhou Wenyan shook his head: "It's okay, I just think..."

This scene is somewhat familiar, as if it has been experienced before.

After the coffin was lowered, the welcoming procession left.

Uncle He walked to the side hall and said: "The bride has just arrived, and she is unfamiliar with the place, so she is afraid. Please stay overnight in the side hall and wait for the wedding tomorrow."

In fact, players really don't want to stay here.

But the NPC has spoken, what can I do?

He Bo asked: "I'm going to prepare some food for you all. What do you want to eat?"

The players are all panicked, how can they still have the appetite to eat?None said a word.

Shen Dongqing looked around and saw that no one else had any suggestions, so she raised her hand and said, "Hot pot."

Uncle He couldn't believe his ears all of a sudden: "...what?"

Shen Dongqing: "Hot pot, is there any here?"

He Bo: "Yes, yes, but..."

Shen Dongqing said with a smile: "Then please trouble Uncle He."

If other players had asked for such a request, Uncle He would have given them a blank stare long ago, but now it was Shen Dongqing who said it, and according to the character design, Uncle He could only agree.

Sishui Town does not even have electricity, and only relies on candles for lighting.

The light of the candles was dim, and it was dimmed with the night wind. With the corpse lying in the coffin, it was full of the atmosphere of a horror movie.

In normal times, these players would have been shivering with fear.

But now... the hot pot is so delicious!

Because Sishui Town is located in a remote area and the hardware conditions are not good, the old-fashioned copper stove hot pot is used, which lacks a little modern taste, but the soup inside is boiling and full of delicious fragrance.

The freshly picked vegetables in the countryside are juicy, and the freshly slaughtered mutton is sliced ​​into pieces, and when you scald them, it makes your index finger move.

Shen Dongqing picked up a piece of mutton, dipped it in the dipping sauce, and stuffed it into his mouth, and the fat gravy burst out instantly.

"good to eat!"

He took another piece of hot mutton and put it on Zhou Wenyan's plate.

But Zhou Wenyan was a little absent-minded.

It was Shen Dongqing who brought it to his lips before he realized it.

Shen Dongqing was feeding while rinsing, eating with great joy.

The man in the suit: "Is it really good to eat hot pot in this atmosphere?" He glanced at the white lanterns hanging under the eaves of the door. On the lanterns, the Chinese character "囍" was pasted on red paper, looking strange.

Non-mainstream nodded: "It seems not very good..."

The man in the leather jacket: "It smells so good."

The beautiful JK girl couldn't help it anymore: "Never mind him, eat!"

The four of them gathered around the table like hungry tigers pouncing on their food, happily cooking mutton.

The hot pot is so delicious that people forget that there is a coffin next door.

A group of people were full and slumped on their seats.

Shen Dongqing wiped her mouth, and suddenly heard a system notification sound in her ears.

[You have stayed in Sishui Town since you were a child and have witnessed several ghost marriages. You know the customs of ghost marriages. If there is no groom in the coffin, the ghost bride will go crazy]

[Please choose a groom for the ghost bride and send it to the coffin before midnight]

Shen Dongqing couldn't help muttering after listening to the game's words: "How do you feel that you got the villain's script?"

He is an upright five-good young man, and he will never do bad things.

Besides, I'm still a little sleepy after eating...

Shen Dongqing nodded her head little by little, leaned on Zhou Wenyan's shoulder, and fell asleep in a daze.

Shen Dongqing had a dream.

He heard an old voice speaking there: "Mrs. Zhou accidentally bumped into a ghost when she was pregnant, which resulted in giving birth to a child in Ghost Moon ahead of schedule. As a result, the child was too light-weight and full of Yin Qi. I'm afraid she might not survive."

Shen Dongqing's eyes were originally gray, but after the voice finished speaking, a light suddenly appeared in front of him, he floated out curiously, and saw a magnificent villa.

A couple looked sad and looked at the child lying on the bed.

Next to it stood an old Taoist, holding a floating dust in his hand, looking like a fairy.

"Please master to save my son." Madam Zhou's face was full of tears, and she leaned weakly in Mr. Zhou's arms. If Mr. Zhou hadn't supported her, she might have fallen to the ground on the spot.

The old man pinched his beard and pondered for a long time: "The old man has a way, but..."

Mr. Zhou: "Master, it's okay to say."

The old Taoist said: "Your nobleman's fate is tinged with wealth and honor. It is the fate that lonely ghosts like to seize their homes. If you don't pay attention, you will lose your life. The old Taoist can leave a talisman. Protect your nobleman before. worry."

Mrs. Zhou: "What about after that?"

The old Taoist shook his head: "It's against the sky to be able to live in peace, unless... marry a ghost."

Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment: "What?"

The old Taoist explained: "The ghost is the most possessive. If you can get married with the ghost, it will protect your son's life without any worries. No one can hurt your son except it."

Mrs. Zhou hesitated: "But the ghost..."

The old Taoist said: "In this marriage, the two are husband and wife. The ghosts will only wait for the life of the couple to run out, and will not take the initiative to harm others. But there is one thing, your son should not get too close to others, neither male nor female."

Mrs. Zhou and Mr. Zhou looked at each other: "Let's think about it again, after all, Wen Yan is still young."

Shen Dongqing originally thought it was a Taoist bluff, but when she heard the word "Wen Yan", she felt that this was not the case.

He floated over and looked at the child lying on the bed.

The child is about seven or eight years old, and his facial features have not yet developed, but he can still see the similarities with Zhou Wenyan.

This is Zhou Wenyan when he was a child?

Shen Dongqing stretched out her hand, wanting to poke the baby fat on Xiao Wenyan's cheek.

It's just that before I poked it, the scene in front of me changed, and I came to an antique building.

Shen Dongqing turned her head to look, and found that there were red and white letters of happiness pasted on the surrounding windows, and an empty coffin was placed in the center. Xiao Wenyan grew up a bit, changed into a wedding dress, and held a big red ribbon in his hand, One end is attached to the coffin.

Mrs. Zhou was anxious: "Master, is this considered successful?"

The old man stroked his beard and frowned: "It's done, it's just..."

Mrs. Zhou asked: "Just what?"

The old Taoist said: "It's just that the ghost who is married to the nobleman seems to be in another mysterious and mysterious world, and cannot be by the nobleman's side."

Mr. Zhou: "Is this still useful?"

The old Taoist nodded: "Of course it is useful, the two are husband and wife, no matter what, the ghost will protect your son."

Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief: "That's just right, it's just right when you're not around. If you're really around, it'd be weird to think about it."

Seeing Mrs. Zhou and Mr. Zhou happily hugging Xiao Wenyan, the old Taoist was always frowning. He made a decision, calculated it, and couldn't help shaking his head.

It's not that simple for Li Gui to get married. One day, either Li Gui will come out to find someone, or Xiao Wenyan will be pulled into another world.

but……

Everything is unknown.

"what--"

Shen Dongqing was awakened by a scream.

He was still thinking about the dream he had just had, and it took him a long time to realize it, and he turned his head to meet Zhou Wenyan's clear eyes.

The beautiful JK girl over there screamed in dismay: "It's all blood! There's blood all over the ground."

Blood was flowing on the bluestone floor tiles, which had turned dark brown overnight and exuded a stench.

Blood dripped all over the floor, spreading from the side hall to the hall, until it disappeared where the coffin was placed, as if someone had been caught into the coffin.

"Someone is missing!"
