Tang Ning's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he was so frightened that he almost threw the portrait in his hand.
The half-remaining portrait was strange and unusual. The eyeballs moved around like the paper man's eyes. The agility of the eyeballs when they moved did not belong to a living person, but was full of ghostly aura.
Because it was so weird, Tang Ning even had the illusion that he was holding a human head. No, it was half a human head!
The increasingly heavy portrait almost exhausted Tang Ning, and he could no longer walk. He couldn't even straighten his back, and his neck was slightly bent as if a heavy object was hanging on it. This lowered head posture allowed him to see more abnormalities on the portrait. Not only were the eyeballs moving, but the mouth was also moving constantly, as if saying something!
"What's wrong?" Lin Yun's voice came from behind.
"The portrait seems to be talking." Tangning said tremblingly.
The half-open mouth of the half-portrait kept opening and closing. Tang Ning could not read the lip language, but he could sense what message the deceased Tang Xianheng was conveying to him.
"What are you talking about?!" Han Ankang asked.
"Can I turn back?" Tangning asked uncertainly.
"Don't look back, you put the portrait behind you."
After hearing what her teammates said, Tang Ning carefully moved the portrait. The portrait was too heavy, and it took Tang Ning some effort to put it behind her.
No one spoke for a moment, and everyone seemed to be trying to interpret the words on the portrait.
Tangning was so exhausted from doing this pose that he couldn't help but ask, "Did you guys understand what I'm saying?"
Still no one answered.
Tangning was a little nervous. He asked in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong? Why is no one talking?"
"It's saying—" Gong Yun's low and cold voice suddenly sounded: "Wrong."
"Wrong? What was wrong? Were the mourners wrong?" The moment these three simple questions came out of Gong Yun's mouth, there was an eerie chill.
Tang Ning now understood why the other players were silent. It wasn't because they couldn't figure it out, but because Gong Yun was standing behind everyone.
Before, when Gong Yun entered the mourning hall, the portrait rolled down from the table and knocked over the eternal lamp. At that time, the players were wondering whether this abnormal situation was Tang Xianheng's reminder of everyone, and what was he reminding them of
Is Tang Xianheng reminding his grandson that he married the wrong person
"Haha, there's nothing wrong with that." Han Ankang laughed dryly, "It's almost time, let's quickly bury the old man."
"Yes." Lin Guijing agreed.
Han Ankang and Lin Guijing didn't want to delve into it, they just wanted to complete the mission. As long as Tang Xianheng was buried successfully, they could escape from this copy. Now borrowing the power of the ghost groom was the greatest guarantee for them. It was understandable to take some risks. After all, there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
Besides, they don't need to face the biggest risk. After all, it has always been the newlywed who contacts the ghost groom, the newlywed who gets married, and the newlywed who has to live with her new husband day and night. If they really get married to the wrong person, marrying a fierce ghost and constantly asking for the ghost's power, they will fall into an abyss from which there is no return -
It’s still the new player.
What does this have to do with them
"Oh?" Gong Yun asked calmly, "Don't you want to check again?"
"No need." Han Ankang said, "Tangning, please put the portrait back in front."
Tang Ning's heart was pounding and his right eyelid was twitching. He couldn't guess what Han Ankang and the others were thinking, but he could sense something indescribable in their tone.
Wrong.
What does this mean
Gu Ming once told him that the love of a ghost is different from that of a living person. The more a ghost loves someone, the more it wants him to die.
Driver Lao Liu once said that ghosts are different from humans. The better you treat them, the more they want to kill you.
Does Gong Yun really just want his sincerity? Is this asking for something too simple? What's so rare about his sincerity
Did Gong Yun and he sign something secretly? The more he asked from Gong Yun, the more tragic he would pay in the end
Now he is borrowing Gong Jun's power to hold the funeral, and he has not encountered any ghosts or monsters blocking the way until now. It is really incredibly smooth.
If the funeral procession was so easy to complete, then wouldn't this B-level dungeon be ridiculous? The funeral procession could be completed on the fourth day, so why bother giving them seven days to complete the task
Tang Ning's heart beat faster. He held the portrait back in front of him and looked down at Tang Xianheng in the portrait. The old man looked angrier and angrier, as if he was about to jump out of the paper and stand in front of him to lecture him at any moment.
What exactly did he miss
His toes stepped on the ground covered with dead branches, making a slight crackling sound. Tangning heard the excited voice of the player behind him: "We're here!"
Tang Ning raised her eyes and saw the tomb that Tang Xianheng had chosen for her long ago.
Although he didn't understand Feng Shui, he could vaguely realize that this should be a good place. Being buried here would be good for future generations. Of course, the second half of the sentence was what Lin Yun told him before.
The ghost grandma had said before that when Uncle Wang tried to hang himself, everyone thought that Tang Xianheng could stop him because everyone in the village knew that Tang Xianheng knew something about that.
Tang Xianheng arranged a marriage for Tang Ning, dressed himself in burial clothes before hanging himself, and arranged his own tomb, instructing that he must be buried within seven days. All of this hinted that Tang Xianheng's death was not simple.
Now that it has finally come to the stage of burial, Tang Xianheng, who had carefully arranged all this, should be able to rest in peace even in death. Why does the old man in the portrait have such an angry expression
The players pried the shovel into the soil, preparing to dig the burial pit bigger. While doing these things, everyone looked around while digging the soil. Everything was normal, no ghosts jumped out, and even when the coffin was placed in the burial pit, there was nothing unusual around.
It was so smooth that it was unbelievable.
Tang Ning stood there holding the portrait in a daze, watching the players start to fill the soil. Everyone was working hard. He lowered his head to look at the portrait, and it had become an ordinary portrait again. Its eyes were not glaring angrily, and its mouth was not opening and closing constantly.
It looks like the dust has settled, and as long as the soil is completely filled, this copy should be over, right
Gong Yun walked over to Tangning's side, put his arm around the stunned Tangning, and said softly, "My condolences."
This sentence is also suitable for Tangning. The other players who were filling the world were already filled with uncontrollable excitement and excitement. Although they had only stayed in a B-level world for four days, they were suffering every moment. Some were imagining how to eat, drink and have fun in the real world, some were thinking about seeing their families, and some just wanted to fall asleep and sleep for a whole day and night.
The pit was completely filled.
The burial was successfully completed!
Bright lights ignited in those eyes. They put down their shovels and stood in front of the new grave, waiting for the pleasant task reminder sound.
A second passed.
Three seconds passed.
Ten seconds passed.
"My dear, you've worked hard today." Gong Yun lowered his head and said to Tangning gently and considerately, "Let's go back and have a good rest."
All the players looked at Gong Yun at once, their eyes filled with shock and confusion. Gong Yun didn't care about the looks of the people around him. He almost kissed Tangning on the face, "Are you tired? Do you want me to carry you back?"
Tang Ning looked at Gong Yun blankly, then looked at the other players in bewilderment.
The coffin has been buried in the tomb. The game task is to bury Tang Xianheng within seven days. Successful burial is considered as completing the game. Why are people still staying in the copy now that the burial task has been completed
"Don't look at others." Gong Yun held Tangning sideways in his arms, his low voice revealing a bit of grievance and childish arrogance, "You are my wife, you should look at me."
Tang Ning subconsciously grabbed the corner of Gong Yan's clothes. He turned around and couldn't help but glance at the players behind him.
Those old players who seemed much more mature and calm than him, this time stood on the new grave as if their defenses were collectively broken. In the last second, they were still fantasizing about returning to reality, and in the next second, their dreams were shattered. It was just like one step to heaven and one step to hell.
It turns out that when everyone's mentality collapses, they are all equally fragile...
Tang Ning buried his face in Gong Jun's arms. Perhaps because he had imagined the worst, or perhaps because he had suffered too many setbacks since entering this game, Tang Ning's mood at this moment was not as broken as he had imagined. He just looked extremely dazed as Gong Jun carried him away.
Gong Yun asked him, "My wife, did I behave well today? Do you like me at all?"
It was really comfortable to not have to use his weak body to walk. Tangning was really tired after walking all the way holding the heavy portrait. He asked softly, "Do you know why my grandfather said it wrong?"
"How would I know what he was thinking?" Gong Yun said calmly, "Perhaps if we open the coffin, cut open his stomach, and ask the worms in his stomach, we might get the answer."
Tangning asked curiously, "Are there really worms in people's stomachs that know the truth?"
The deep black eyes looked at him tenderly, and Tangning saw a little bit of doting in those eyes, "And maggots."
Tang Ning: “”
Tang Ning guessed that Gong Jun's eyes were probably showing concern for a fool.
Heavy footsteps were heard behind her. Tang Ning found that Lin Yun had caught up with her, while Han Ankang and Lin Guijing remained where they were, seemingly trying to find out why the mission had failed.
Tang Ning heard Gong Jun was still in a good mood and told him the dishes. She asked him what he wanted to eat later and then asked him if he wanted a massage. The topic turned around and around and finally came to "how is my wife going to reward me?"
Well, that’s right, the world in which only Gong Yun is happy has been achieved.
Tang Ning's mind was filled with thoughts about what went wrong with the burial, so she didn't respond to Gong Jun. Gong Jun lowered his head and kissed her from her eyebrows to the corners of her lips, asking for the reward himself. He then continued to carry Tang Ning as they walked out.
The sun breaks through the clouds, the dim village is shrouded in morning light, the villagers get up to work, and everything is peaceful and tranquil wherever you look.
They walked to the mourning hall. Lin Yun was the first to enter and look around. Then, Tangning heard Lin Yun shout, "Wrong!"
Tang Ning looked over and saw Lin Yun standing next to a simple wooden bed. Han Yunian's body was originally on the bed, but at this moment Lin Yun suddenly pulled off the white cloth covering the body.
The body lying on the wooden bed turned out to be Tang Xianheng's body!
"What's going on?!" Tang Ning signaled Gong Yun to put him down. He walked anxiously to the wooden bed and looked at Tang Xianheng with his eyes wide open and his mouth agape, as if he was dying with his eyes open!
After the condolences ended yesterday, they sealed the coffin according to the custom of this village. During the funeral today, no one went out of their way to open the coffin to take another look. After all, it is considered unlucky to open the coffin after it has been sealed.
No one expected that the body lying in the coffin would be moved, and no one expected that the "wrong" mentioned in the photo actually meant the body was wrong.
Since Tang Xianheng's body was lying on the wooden bed that belonged to Han Yunian, whose body was lying in Tang Xianheng's tomb? !
The answer is already obvious.
Tang Ning suddenly thought of what happened on the day the funeral hall caught fire. Not only did Gong Yun appear, but Han Yunian also died tragically. It was actually Han Yunian who showed signs of abnormality first.
When Tang Ning lit the eternal lamp, it was Han Yunian who blew air on his back and blew out the flame.
It’s just that Gong Yun’s presence is too strong, causing all players’ attention to be focused on Gong Yun, while ignoring the weird Han Yunian!
Perhaps what Tang Xianheng was reminding from the beginning to the end was not that he married the wrong person, but was reminding everyone that there was something wrong with Han Yunian!
Thinking back carefully, before Tang Xianheng's portrait actually fell, in addition to Gong Yun introducing himself to everyone at that time, another thing happened. That is, the villagers placed Han Yunian's body next to the coffin.
The villagers of Tangjia Village are always kind-hearted and do all kinds of things. When they decided to put Han Yunian's body in the mourning hall, they also had all kinds of excuses, such as "You are all relatives, let's keep vigil together."
But how can there be two bodies placed in one funeral hall? !
"Oh no! We buried Han Yunian's body in Tang Xianheng's tomb!" Lin Yun said anxiously. When he realized this, he anxiously took out his mobile phone and wanted to contact the two players who were still on the grave.
There is no cell phone signal.
Tangning looked at Gong Yun behind her in panic. Gong Yun looked very calm, as if he had anticipated all this. Did Gong Yun really know that they had buried the wrong person? If he knew, why didn't Gong Yun warn everyone
At first, Gong Yun said that the meaning conveyed by the portrait was "wrong", and he guided the players by saying "Is the undertaker wrong?", which made the players focus more on the undertaker, but he also asked everyone to check again.
Tang Ning's mind was in a mess, but the most important thing now was to quickly dig out Han Yunian who had usurped the throne!
"Tangning, you carry it—" Lin Yun looked at Tang Xianheng lying on the wooden bed. He gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, I'll carry it."
Immediate family members are not suitable to touch the body, and Gong Yun is even less suitable to carry the body. Since they have already violated the taboo of burying the wrong person, now they can just carry the corpse.
While Tang Ning and his group were rushing to the cemetery, Han Ankang and Lin Guijing were still standing there, unaware of anything. One was studying the tombstone while the other was looking around.
They stood back to back, and a series of subtle noises rang out in the quiet cemetery, as if someone was knocking on something with their hands.
Han Ankang frowned as he stared at the tombstone. He turned around when he heard the voice and met Lin Guijing who had also turned his head.
The knocking stopped at this moment.
Han Ankang and Lin Guijing turned around and continued to study what they had just been thinking about.
The strange sound rang out again.
The two turned around and looked at each other with displeasure.
Lin Guijing: "Were you the one knocking on the tombstone just now?"
Han Ankang: "When did I knock on the tombstone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bluish-white hand suddenly broke out of the ground!
