647: Mobile phone calls

Late at night, what Gao Lang was worried about did not happen.

It was as if time had been skipped; Gao Lang was now sitting on the bed, and the bride, looking languid as if she had just finished being intimate, rested her head on his chest.

"Husband, will you always love me?" The woman's words were full of attachment.

Hearing this, Gao Lang felt a wave of nausea.

["Ho ho ho! The bride gives her true heart, the groom makes a vow, to love only this one person for life, never to take concubines or maids, true feelings exist in this World, thus love is interpreted."]

"You want me to swear?!" Gao Lang cried out in his heart.

"Husband? Why aren't you speaking? Do you not love me anymore?" The woman's head twisted slightly. It should have been a pleading, fearful tone, but Gao Lang heard a madness within it that seemed ready to erupt at any moment!

"No, no, of course not." Gao Lang forced a smile uglier than crying, despair surfacing in his eyes: "I swear, I will only have Xiao Fu as my companion for my entire life, I will only love you in this life!"

"Husband is so good." The woman smiled and threw herself onto A Man's chest again, leaving a sticky patch of blood from her face.

"Husband, are you going to the capital to take the imperial examination?"

["The groom aspires to travel afar, studying diligently for over ten years, taking the imperial examination today to make a name, the poor bride guards her boudoir."]

Hearing the voice in his mind, Gao Lang swallowed and nodded slightly.

At the same time, he vaguely remembered seeing this situation somewhere.

To be precise, he had heard it.

Yes, he remembered hearing a play in the inn before.

At that time, his Father didn't let everyone listen, but he still heard the play being sung on the stage!

Was his current situation exactly that of the male protagonist in that play?!

Later, the male protagonist went to take the imperial examination, and his wife became pregnant. The man in the play even gave her a divorce letter at this time.

This resulted in a miscarriage, and the woman began to hunt down A Man!

Thinking of this, Gao Lang's palms began to sweat again.

What to do? Was the final fate of the man in the play going to happen to him as well?

Moreover, the female protagonist committed suicide in the end. The Ghost definitely wouldn't die, but his Sister would definitely die too!

What to do, what to do?

Can he not go take the imperial examination? Definitely not, the narrator's voice completely cut off his retreat!

Furthermore, later on, that divorce letter might even be directly delivered into the bride's hands along with the narrator's words!

Could it be that he could only wait for this Ghost bride to come and kill him with a knife?!

While feeling anxious, Gao Lang suddenly thought of something.

He fumbled around on his body, and two stones appeared in his hand.

"Give one to the bride, this thing is more useful than a letter."

At the wedding banquet, A Man's words reappeared in his mind.

Hesitantly, Gao Lang took out a telephone from his hand and gave one to the bride.

He cleared his throat before saying, "Xiao Fu, let's use this thing to contact each other from now on, don't use letters anymore."

"This thing?" The woman's gaze fell on the telephone Gao Lang handed over. She didn't show any doubt, still maintaining a rigid smile: "Okay, whatever Husband says."

Town in the play, street.

Ning Buxiu and Cang Poshi were on a rooftop.

There were no stars in the sky, only a moon that didn't look like a moon.

Everything seemed static, like a shoddy fabricated World.

"The sky darkens so quickly, it doesn't feel like much time has passed." Cang Poshi said with some emotion.

"Look at your telephone, then you'll know what time it is." Ning Buxiu reminded him silently.

There was time on the telephone because he had synchronized the System's time with it.

"Hmm? Why is it only the Hai hour? Looking at the direction of the moon, it should be past midnight already."

"Since we entered Huangniu Town until now, in total, only one hour has passed. Let's wait a bit longer, we can go back in less than another hour." Ning Buxiu yawned.

They were in the play.

And the final outcome of this play was the death of all the living actors!

Those who were lucky enough to survive would be 'accepted and assimilated' by the Ghosts of Huangniu Town!

There was only one way to break the situation: break the rule of cooperating with the performance and kill the Ghosts inside!

However, Ning Buxiu couldn't directly act.

The real Ghosts inside had not appeared.

Living people who didn't understand the plot and only followed the opera's script might mistake the Ghost bride possessing the woman as the Ghost in this play.

And thus look for a way to break the situation on the Ghost bride.

Many of the male protagonists who entered the play before tried their best to say nice things, try to salvage the situation, and think of ways to make the Ghost bride not kill them.

They even said things like the letter being altered by others, words with no evidence to support them, attempting to make the Ghost bride spare their lives.

In reality, none of this could stop the Ghost bride's killing.

Because, from beginning to end, what the male protagonist needed to appease was not the Ghost bride, but the fetus in her belly!

This was also the purpose of Ning Buxiu giving Gao Lang a telephone.

Using the telephone to stabilize the Ghost bride's emotions, waiting for the fetus to be born, that was when he would act!

Otherwise, if the bride truly miscarries, it would be two Ghost souls in one body, not only powerful but the possessed woman would also turn into nourishment!

In the original work, Zhou Wuji was able to pass this instance with some luck.

Relying on the holy weapon shard given by the Seventh Princess, he discovered the Ghost Infant in the Ghost bride's belly.

Of course, it was reasonable for the protagonist to rely on luck, and for Ning Buxiu himself, as the author, to rely on the System's cheat and his foreknowledge.

holy weapon shard, although the one the Seventh Princess gave Zhou Wuji was not complete, it was still a level higher than demon weapons.

In the original work, the Seventh Princess and Yuwen Mingxuan made a bet at a poetry gathering, and the stake was a holy weapon shard. It is unknown if the Seventh Princess's holy weapon shard was already given to Yuwen Mingxuan because she lost the bet, or if it was going to be given to Zhou Wuji according to the plot.

Shaking his head, compared to these things, what Ning Buxiu cared more about was whether things like fragments of special weapons could serve as new servers?

"Whoosh~"

Just a moment later, the original The Black Night turned into daytime.

Ning Buxiu and Cang Poshi were on the street rooftop and could clearly see Gao Lang appearing at the courtyard entrance with a bewildered look.

"Husband, when you reach the capital, remember to write back to me." Standing at the door, the bride's eyes were full of reluctance and concern.

"Yes, I will." Gao Lang replied stiffly according to the narrator's instructions.

Time and location changed again.

Gao Lang suddenly found himself in an unfamiliar house, wrapped in thick cotton clothes.

Looking at the snowflakes falling outside the window, the young man hadn't fully recovered when his attention was drawn by a letter in his hand.

"Husband, it's heavy snow in the twelfth lunar month, remember to wear more clothes."

"Tell Husband some good news, Xiao Fu is pregnant! The doctor said the Child is already three months old, and I don't know when Husband will come home, Xiao Fu misses Husband."

"Twelfth lunar month, pregnant." Gao Lang's throat bobbed as he looked at the content of the letter.

That is to say, the imperial examination is over now, and he is currently on his way back?

But that's not right either, in which room is he now?

"Young Master Gao." Suddenly, a gentle voice came from the doorway.

Looking up, Gao Lang could see a graceful woman with clear and beautiful eyes appearing before him.

When the woman saw Gao Lang, she shyly covered half of her face with the round fan in her hand: "Young Master Gao, my Father and Mother have agreed, they are willing for you to marry me."

["Yi ya ya ah! The groom's heart has finally changed, he found a wealthy Young Lady in his dream, overjoyed at being able to marry the wealthy Young Lady, he alone writes a divorce letter and sends it to the bride, completely unafraid of severing ties, only the person before his eyes remains in his heart."]

The narrator's voice appeared again.

Gao Lang listened and suddenly stood up.

Damn it, things still progressed to this point!

At the same time, in the Village, the bride held a divorce letter, her face full of grief, kneeling and weeping.

Amidst the crying, faint sounds of suppression and madness could be heard, as if some extreme emotion was evolving into great terror!

"Ding-a-ling~ Ding-a-ling!"

Suddenly, a rapid ringing sound erupting from a small stone brick nearby made the bride pause for a moment.
