As he pushed open the screen, he couldn't help but wonder, "What is this..."

Jiang Chenzhou saw his wife coming out with wet hair, and quickly wrapped her hair with a clean towel.

Although the temperature in the house was a little warmer, it was not warm enough to dry out in a short time like in the summer. Moreover, especially in a big house like this, it was freezing cold in winter.

Si Lanyu stuffed the talisman back into his chest.

The other party must have his own reasons for giving you something.

And in this case, this kind of talisman will definitely be beneficial to oneself.

If you lose the talisman due to your carelessness, it would be a suicidal act.

He reached out to take the towel from the other person, but was dodged.

The man's gentle and magnetic voice still made him unable to stop, "I'll do it."

Si Lanyu didn't act pretentiously. She sat on the chair and waited obediently for Jiang Chenzhou to dry her hair.

Then he started praising Jiang Chenzhou, mumbling, "You can draw that spell after just looking at it once. That's amazing! I've found a treasure!"

Jiang Chenzhou smiled and was about to speak when he heard a shrill scream at the door.

Si Lanyu realized it almost immediately and turned slightly to the side. "Is it also posted on the door?"

Jiang Chenzhou hummed softly, and then, after he estimated that his hair was no longer so wet, he put the towel away and reached out to touch his wife's head. "I'll be out for a while, don't worry too much."

Si Lanyu nodded.

He also didn't want Jiang Chenzhou to go out and worry about him.

When the door was opened, a gust of cold wind rushed in, causing the bed in the room to creak.

It was pitch black outside the house.

Jiang Chenzhou went out and closed the door again.

As soon as I went out, I could feel the raging wind around me, like it was roaring, blowing my hair and clothes almost to the point of flying.

Jiang Chenzhou took a step back impatiently, his voice cold, "Either get out or die."

The wind stopped for a moment.

But then I could intuitively feel that the wind was getting weaker.

Finally, it slowly disappeared.

A red figure slowly appeared in front of him.

The thick layer of makeup seemed to cover her entire face with an impenetrable veil, blurring her features and making them difficult to discern. Even her long, thick eyelashes were not spared, being completely obscured by the heavy makeup.

The dark powder, as rich as ink, stretched between her eyebrows, like an abrupt dividing line, strangely dividing her face into two distinct areas. The lip balm on her lips was unusually light and elegant, forming a sharp contrast with the rich dark powder.

Even more exaggerated is the fact that the top of her head is tightly pressed down by a variety of fancy and intricate hairpins, some inlaid with dazzling gems, some carved with exquisite patterns. They are intertwined and stacked together, as if to crush the entire head. From a distance, it looks like a small hill made of jewels and metals, standing there heavily.

In her hand, she was still tightly holding the red hydrangea, the symbol of marriage.

The beautiful hands were painted with bright red rouge, which complemented the red hydrangea.

It seems strange and inexplicable.

The woman stood there without moving an inch, but her voice was hollow and hoarse, as if it was coming slowly from the horizon.

.................................. ............................

The woman acted as if she didn't see Jiang Chenzhou, and continued to sing the song that made people feel a little uncomfortable.

"My father said that my skin is beautiful

Wait until tomorrow to discuss the matchmaking

Looking for a wealthy and glorious family to marry into

Loyal, virtuous, and kind

Always abide by family rules

No joy, no anger, no words, no monument..."

Jiang Chenzhou thought that this time, like last time, he would stop here.

“No one cares what her name is.

Entering the ancestral hall and jumping over the fire basin

Red paper wedding characters on lanterns

Choose an auspicious time

I only hope for a happy next life."

This time I could hear the second half of the song clearly.

After Jiang Chenzhou thought about it for a while, he instantly understood that this was most likely the arranged marriage that was criticized a lot in the feudal era.

This marriage system completely disregards the personal wishes and emotional needs of both men and women, and is based purely on family interests or traditional social concepts, forcing two people who have no emotional foundation and may have never met to spend the rest of their lives together.

Sad and helpless.

But that makeup.

Jiang Chenzhou couldn't help but look up again.

I guess wedding makeup back then wasn't like this.

Faced with this NPC that I couldn't communicate with immediately, the irritation in my heart became more and more intense.

I was wondering how likely it was that I would just destroy the game.

I felt that the woman seemed to have gradually stopped singing, and then there was a trace of longing and pleading in her eyes, "Save me! Save me!"

As the woman called for help, Jiang Chenzhou saw several pairs of hands shaped like dead weeds slowly extending from the boundless darkness behind her.

Then he tightly pinched the woman's shoulders and joints, and then the largest and darkest pair of hands slowly but extremely forcefully covered the woman's mouth.

As the black hand gradually covered the woman's lips, her last shred of hope was completely snuffed out. The woman, who had once been able to squeeze out a few faint sounds from her throat, was now unable to utter even the slightest sound. Her eyes were filled with utter terror, and tears and blood mixed together, streaming down her cheeks.

The scene was like a nightmare, a heavy shackle relentlessly pressing down on the woman, leaving her unable to break free. The surrounding darkness seemed to grow thicker at this moment, like an impenetrable net, swallowing up all the light.

Jiang Chenzhou always felt that this scene was a little weird.

It seems to be telling him something...

He frowned, but didn't move at all.

You cannot interfere with the fate of the NPCs in the game. Even if you save them now, you cannot guarantee that they will not counterattack.

Especially the NPCs in the game, they are basically emotionless and they are supposed to do whatever the programming in their bodies tells them to do.

The woman was slowly dragged into the abyss.

As even the last trace of the clothes disappeared, another overwhelming gust of wind came.

This time the weirdness is obviously much stronger.

The black fog around him made it almost impossible for Jiang Chenzhou to see the scene in front of him.
