When the ghost groom did such a righteous thing in front of Lu Ji's face, Gu Jiu felt a little weird.
She felt a sense of familiarity.
Gu Jiu finally looked the ghost groom in the face and sized him up calmly. He began to ponder over what he had experienced after entering the game world and vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Although her scrutiny was subtle, the ghost groom still caught it keenly.
There was just the right amount of surprise on his face, and he looked so happy, as if he was happy that she finally looked at him.
“Madam, I really…” He pursed his bright red lips nervously. The bright red added a touch of charm to his pale skin, making him look lively.
Gu Jiu raised his hand, interrupted him, and asked seriously, "Are you really sure about this marriage?"
The ghost groom nodded.
"Then you should understand that I am a human being. If I enter Youdu City with you, I will die."
The ghost groom's expression also became serious. He said, "It doesn't matter. You will be transformed into a ghost by then, and we can be together forever."
Gu Jiu: "… Sorry, I'm not interested in being a ghost."
The ghost groom was not angry at her rejection, but instead felt a little resentful and aggrieved, and whispered, "Madam, don't you have any feelings for me?"
"I..." Gu Jiu stared at his face, and the words that were about to come out of his mouth became, "I really don't like it that much."
"But it's not annoying, right?" The ghost groom smiled shyly, and his smile was particularly happy.
Gu Jiu: "That's because..."
This time it was his turn to interrupt her. He smiled and said softly, "You don't have to say it, I understand! But from now on you are only my wife, nothing else."
So confident
Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows slightly, revealing a fake smile on her face, "Then let's wait and see." She changed the subject, "Now, can you let me leave?"
The ghost groom looked at her and said shyly, "We finally meet, can you stay with me for a while?"
"No!" Gu Jiu refused decisively, "Aji is waiting for me outside, I want to go find him."
The ghost groom lowered his head slightly, his fingers unconsciously tugging at his robe. His pale face looked sick and fragile, which could easily make people feel soft-hearted.
Gu Jiu looked at his familiar little movements and felt unhappy.
This ghost groom not only looks like Lu Ji, but even some of his habits when facing her are very similar. These are little habits that only she knows. If Lu Ji hadn't been around, she would almost think he was Lu Ji.
Gu Jiu once again realized the trickiness of this game world.
If even the darkest secrets in the players' hearts can be discovered, the death traps set for the players will be difficult to escape.
Just as Gu Jiu was considering whether to use another psychic card to leave, the ghost groom suddenly looked up and looked towards the stairs leading to the sixth floor.
There seemed to be some ripples in the depths of his pupils. Before Gu Jiu could see clearly, he suddenly stood up and grabbed Gu Jiu's hand.
"Madam, I will come to see you again tonight and take you to see the night view of the River Styx." He said in an extremely shy tone, his eyes were particularly nostalgic and he looked reluctant.
Gu Jiu felt a powerful aura coming, as if to break the space within the death notice time. The space around him became unstable, and he had a vague premonition.
When the ghost bridegroom in front of him disappeared like a dewdrop again, the unique noise belonging to the human world sounded in the distance, breaking the silence of the space.
Gu Jiu was still on the seventh floor of the tower, but it was no longer a ghost tower, but a normal ancient tower.
"Ajiu!"
Lu Ji appeared at the stairs on the seventh floor. Seeing her standing there, he strode over and hugged her tightly.
There was not only Gu Jiu on the seventh floor, but also other tourists. When they saw the two girls hugging each other, they just glanced at them casually and gathered at the window to overlook the ancient town.
Lu Ji hugged him so tightly that Gu Jiu felt his old waist couldn’t bear the weight.
She coughed lightly, patted his shoulder and said, "Aji, relax a little, my waist needs protection."
Lu Ji hurriedly let her go, and while checking her waist, he stared at her with slightly red eyes, and said in a soft voice, "Ajiu, I'm sorry."
Gu Jiu couldn't stand the aggrieved look of the beautiful girl, and said without ambition: "It's okay..."
It's too unfair to have a boyfriend disguised as a beautiful girl. Even if you know that the monster under his skirt is more majestic than that of an ordinary man, who can resist it when you see him like this
After Lu Ji confirmed that her waist was fine, he squeezed a hand between her fingers and interlocked theirs. Like a pitiful little puppy, he said aggrievedly: "Ajiu, the male ghost is here again, isn't it?"
"…How do you know?"
"Because you never left the death notice time."
When the player enters the death notice time, the time flows at the same speed as in reality. The time that has passed in the real world is the same as the time spent in the death notice time, without any discount.
So he waited for a long time, but didn't find her in the ancient tower, so he suspected that she was trapped in the death notice time.
Gu Jiu coughed lightly. Somehow, he suddenly wanted to defend himself. "Maybe the ghost in this ancient tower is too powerful and I am trapped?"
"Impossible!" Lu Ji said without hesitation, "Ordinary ghosts are no match for you."
The blood of the Heavenly Demon is extremely overbearing. Ordinary ghosts will only be crushed when they encounter the blood of the Heavenly Demon. How could they possibly trap her forever? Unless it is the rules of the game world itself...
Thinking of this, his eyes became very gloomy.
Gu Jiu felt guilty again. Although she felt that she had not done anything, she felt a little uncomfortable when facing her boyfriend's calm statement.
Sure enough, he whispered with some hurt, "Ajiu, this is the first time you defended an irrelevant person. Do you care about that ghost?"
"No..." Facing her boyfriend's understanding gaze, Gu Jiu had to admit, "A little bit."
Lu Ji's face showed an even more hurt look, and he felt so aggrieved.
Gu Jiu quickly said: “I just think he is very similar to you, not only in appearance, but also in personality, and even…” He couldn’t go on. It felt like if he continued, this guy would really just pick up his sword and go to Youdu City to kill the ghost groom.
"Ajiu, he is definitely not me!" Lu Ji said coldly, "You have to remember this."
Gu Jiu looked at him for a while and said, "Okay, I'll remember that. But he said he'll come over tonight..."
Lu Ji: “…” Sure enough, we should kill that evil groom first.
The two left the ancient tower together.
The two were very quiet on the way, maybe because of the ghost groom, or maybe because of the sinister intentions hidden in this game world, which made both of them not want to talk.
Shortly after leaving the ancient tower, I met Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze.
"Miss, Lu Ji!"
Chai Yingying dragged Jiang Ze over, her face was very pale, and Gu Jiu keenly smelled the blood on both of them.
"Are you hurt?" Her expression changed slightly.
Jiang Ze smiled bitterly and said, "I was slightly injured, but I'm fine. How about you? You just came down from the ancient tower, right? Did you..."
"Yes, but we're fine!"
Gu Jiu said this and decided not to visit the ancient town and go back to Xiaoqiao Inn with the two of them.
When we returned to Xiaoqiao Inn, we found that Tan Lan and the others had also returned. They also looked pale and had a faint smell of blood on their bodies.
"Are you injured too?" Chai Yingying asked.
Tan Lan nodded and said weakly, "Just now when we climbed the Jiazi Bridge in the east of the town, we received a death notice on the phone and experienced a fierce battle."
When they said this, there was a hint of fear in their eyes as they had survived a disaster. They were very grateful to be able to come back alive.
After a brief chat, they went back to their room to treat their injuries.
Gu Jiu and Lu Ji followed them into Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze’s room.
Thinking that Gu Jiu was going to help her treat her injuries, Chai Yingying happily took off her clothes. Then she saw Lu Ji decisively turn around and face the window, as if just looking at her would hurt his eyes.
"Sister Chai, there are men here. Do you think I'm not a man?" Jiang Ze reminded weakly.
Chai Yingying glanced at him and said, "Look if you dare."
Jiang Ze turned around silently. Well, he really didn't have the courage.
Seeing that he had his back to her, Chai Yingying continued to take off her clothes, leaving only her underwear on her upper body. Gu Jiu finally saw the injuries on her body clearly. There were wounds all over her body, as if they were caused by being beaten with a stick.
Chai Yingying screamed in pain and said with a pale face, "Miss, please help me apply the medicine."
Gu Jiu took the medicine she handed over, cleaned her wound, applied the healing medicine, and asked, "Where did you get hurt?"
"The stilt walkers in the west of the town." Chai Yingying said weakly, "Jiang Ze and I were watching the stilt walkers. It was so lively, with tourists everywhere. But the sky suddenly turned cloudy, and those stilt walkers turned into ghosts. They walked on the stilts like they were doing acrobatics and rushed towards us. The wooden stilts on their feet were simply killing tools. One kick would break the floor..."
There are stilt-walking performances in the ancient town, which attract many tourists to watch.
The stilt-walking staff, dressed in heavy costumes and gorgeous makeup, singing and dancing, are a big attraction.
Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze did not expect the death notice to arrive at this time. The atmosphere was too lively and the noise covered the sound of mobile phone message alerts, so they were not prepared. It was not until the ghost suddenly attacked them that they realized that they had entered the time of the death notice.
Afterwards, Chai Yingying and her friend took the opportunity to check the prompt on their mobile phone, which was "walking on stilts".
There are many ghosts on stilts, and each of them has special skills. Walking on stilts makes them even more terrifying. They can leap into the air and catch up with the players no matter where they run. The two of them almost escaped with a narrow escape.
After Gu Jiu helped her treat her injuries, Chai Yingying's complexion looked much better. She put on her clothes and went to help Jiang Ze treat his injuries.
Seeing Lu Ji turning to look out the window, they knew they couldn't count on him to help them treat their injuries.
Chai Yingying was still in the mood to tease, "Lu Ji, we are all women, what are you embarrassed about?"
Lu Ji ignored her. When he noticed that she had put on her clothes, he turned around and sat next to Gu Jiu.
The injuries on Jiang Ze's body were similar to those on Chai Yingying's body, both of them were caused by ghosts hitting him with wooden stilts.
While Chai Yingying was applying medicine to Jiang Ze, she asked about Gu Jiu and Lu Ji's experiences. After listening to their experiences in the ancient pagoda, they both felt that the dangers in the death notices they had experienced were also considerable.
In fact, the death notices the two received in the ancient tower were the same, but they were separated by the ghost groom at that time, and Lu Ji left soon after the death notice.
