[What is the 'Personality Correction Fist'?]

Luo Shiqin, who knew little about anime, humbly asked her pen pal for advice.

[This,] in the dialogue box, the words the other party was typing kept flashing and disappearing, and finally the pen pal gave this answer, [The protagonist, who was always positive and sunny, became depressed after a setback. No matter how others persuaded him, he was unable to recover. At this time, his companion came forward and punched him in the face. After being hit, the protagonist immediately reflected on himself, finally admitted his mistakes, and made up his mind to start a new life.]*[1]

[Of course, it can also be called 'Friendship Face-Breaking Fist']

Luo Shiqin thought: [It sounds amazing. Can I use it as material for my novel?]

Penpal: […Forget it, you will be besieged by readers.]

Because the so-called "personality correction punch" is actually just a very simple punch.

Without the special effects of comics or animations, in the most intuitive performance, it is actually not much different from "talking nonsense and then punching".

If the description is not good, it is easy for readers to complain - ah, readers these days are not as easy to fool as they used to be.

The pen pal sighed like this.

[Be careful or I’ll take a screenshot and post it in your reader group, you scumbag author.] Luo Shiqin sneered and took a screenshot as evidence before the other party could quickly withdraw it, [Too slow, I’ve already taken it.]

Penpal: […Aaaaaaa, how abominable!]

Penpal: [What should I do! The writing material for the setting of "harmful friend" has been completely imprinted in my brain! (Despair)]

Luo Shiqin: [……]

All I can say is that it’s not completely unreasonable for some people to get together.

Thinking of this, Luo Shiqin sighed.

At this time, she was sitting on the bamboo bed in the living room, putting Yu Yu's clothes on herself. She pulled her hair out of the bun, and her hair was slightly curled, and the length of her hair was about the same as Yu Yu's half-long hair.

"Do you really want to do this?"

Yu Yu held the wedding dress in both hands and looked at the senior sister who was fixing her hair with a hesitant look in her eyes: "This is too dangerous."

Senior Luo extended her hand to her, waiting for her to hand over the wedding dress.

"If I don't go, you'll have to go, okay?" The senior student dragged out her tone with a smile on her lips, "You don't want to be scared to death, do you?"

Yu Yu: “But…”

The junior schoolgirl hung her head, very frustrated: "Is there really no other way? Even if it's a senior schoolgirl, it will be very dangerous!"

Thinking of Yun Yu'er's words "sewn up, nailed up, strangled in the coffin", Yu Yu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Yes, she is indeed afraid of ghosts, but that doesn't mean she should push the things she should do to other people just because she is afraid of ghosts.

If she puts her senior schoolmates in danger, what is the point of her existing as the president of the Senior Schoolmates Protection Association!

Luo Shiqin was startled, then raised her hand and rubbed her head.

The schoolgirl with messy hair looked at her blankly: "Senior sister?"

"Yu," she hugged the little school girl and kissed her intimately, then explained, "If we want to leave here, we must complete this ghost marriage."

"I have more experience than you," Luo Shiqin said, "You have to believe in me and believe that I can move forward."

Yu Yu: "Of course I believe you!"

She was just worried.

Although she knew that now was not the right time to talk about this, Yu Yu still pulled her sleeve and whispered, "Senior, am I really useless..."

Even though she learned judo, she was more timid than a mouse when faced with terrorist incidents.

Luo Shiqin looked at her for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Why are you afraid of horror stories, but you insist on understanding these horror stories?"

Hearing this question, Yu Yu looked up at her in surprise.

The senior's gentle eyes seemed to be able to penetrate this appearance and see through her soul.

"I……"

"Don't tell me so quickly," Senior Luo took the wedding dress with a smile and quickly put it on herself. When Yun Yu'er handed the veil to her, she took a last look at the junior who was lost in thought and said, "It won't be too late to tell me after I come back."

At 7pm, the sky, which had been grey all day, finally took on a hint of orange and red. The setting sun broke through the thick clouds and shone brightly as it approached setting.

In the spacious yard in front of the old house, a woman in a red wedding dress was sitting in front of a coffin-like betrothal gift box.

The red and white veil hid her expression, and one could only see her hands moving in a tangle and her body trembling slightly.

"Tut-tut, tut-tut—"

The familiar suona sounded again, and this time, there were countless wedding processions that seemed to have no end.

The paper figures wearing different styles of clothing have exactly the same face, with round, crimson blush painted on their pale faces, and their mouths are raised high as if they had eaten someone.

The wedding procession arrived at the yard of the old house with the sound of gongs and drums.

The sound of the suona became louder and louder until it stopped abruptly before the bride could bear it no longer.

"Please, bride, take the sedan chair!"

Sharp voices came from all directions, and the living bride in her wedding dress only felt her hands being grabbed, and the next second she was "invited" to a high place.

The red sedan chair was lifted up shakily, the paper-made people lifted the paper-made sedan chair, the suona sounded again, and the gongs and wedding drums were played continuously.

Amidst the joy and laughter, the wedding party in the yard quickly left the place.

I don’t know how long it was, but the door of the old house was opened, and a furry bun-head poked out and looked around.

Yu Yu carefully checked and then breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, they are gone."

Yun Yuer appeared from nowhere and nodded.

"Now let's follow to the banquet."

Yu Yu touched his head, feeling a little worried: "But it's getting dark now. If I go with a flashlight, I will probably be discovered. But without a light, I can't see the road at all."

She frowned, turned her head and looked at Yun Yu'er, expectantly: "If you are a ghost, you can see the road even in the dark, right?"

Yun Yuer smiled helplessly and spread her hands: "Even if I can see, you can't see me, right?"

Yu Yu: “…That’s true.”

Is the plan to catch up aborted? ?

“Hiss!”

“Ouch!”

She touched her hair that was floating upward due to the electric current and looked up at the sky.

The small thundercloud that Senior Luo had left for her suddenly changed its appearance and floated in the air, constantly moving forward. From time to time, bright lights flashed inside its white cloud. From a distance, it looked like a moving night light!

Yu Yu was overjoyed: "Thank you for your help, little Leiyun!"

She grabbed Yun Yuer's arm and quickly followed.

Yun Yuer: ...?

The grandmother was stunned for a moment, then carefully tightened her granddaughter's hand.

Although the sedan chair is made of paper, it is almost as sturdy as a wooden sedan chair, or even sturdier than a wooden sedan chair.

Covered with a red and white veil, Luo Shiqin could just see her hands folded on her legs with her lowered eyes.

The bridal gown fully wrapped her up, leaving no space for anything. She couldn't bring the yellow talisman paper with her, so Luo Shiqin could only stuff all the talisman paper she had drawn into Yu Yu's pocket.

She raised her hand and touched her neck.

Although there was no mirror to look at her now, Luo Shiqin knew that the one-eye was always there on her throat - as long as it was there, she would most likely not die.

Maybe when the group of paper figures tried to sew her lips and nail her scapula, they would be struck by a bolt of lightning from the sky, leaving them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside... No, the paper figures would burn if they were struck.

She shrugged.

The sedan was moving quite fast. Luo Shiqin could even feel a gust of wind coming in through the gap in the paper curtain in front of her.

She did not rashly lift the veil.

If those ghosts found out that the bride they picked up was her and not Yu Yu, they might throw her out halfway.

Luo Shiqin had no doubt about this.

After waiting quietly for more than ten minutes, the sedan finally stopped after turning a big bend.

The paper-tied wedding sedan was slowly lowered, and the paper curtains were opened. Luo Shiqin couldn't see clearly what was happening outside under the lid, but she could feel the cold touch of the hand clamping her wrist again.

She was almost pulled out of the sedan, and before she could even stand firmly, a huge force from behind pushed her into a dark and narrow space.

When Luo Shiqin turned around, the light in front of her eyes was completely blocked, and then she felt like she was being lifted up.

But this time, he was lifted horizontally.

Luo Shiqin: …

Good, she was stuffed into the coffin by the paper man.

"The bride and groom are happily married——"

Outside the coffin, the shrill voice heard earlier was shouting again.

Luo Shiqin realized that she seemed to be carried somewhere, and then the coffin that was originally lying flat was placed upright again, so she was able to stand up and stand in the coffin, listening carefully to the sounds coming from outside.

"A match made in heaven—"

This is, entering the main room, planning to get married?

In the darkness, under the red and white veil, Luo Shiqin's lips curled up in a sly smile.

"The etiquette of bowing every three steps is correct, and the wedding ceremony of wearing flowers and hairpins is grand."

"The firecrackers are ringing in joy, and the red yarn and green fan should not forget the gods."

"Sugar cakes and candied haws convey love, and auspicious snow heralds a good harvest and a happy family."

"We will stay together forever, and grow old together in love and affection."

“I wish the newlyweds happiness and a long-lasting marriage!*[2]

From outside the coffin came the sound of joyous chirping sounds—footsteps, firecrackers, drums, suonas…

Apart from this narration, there is no other voice.

After the joy, only weirdness remains.

Luo Shiqin stretched out her hands and slammed them hard on the coffin lid!

“Boom!”

All the sounds outside the coffin suddenly fell silent.

“Bang Bang!!”

Luo Shiqin smiled and slammed her hands on the coffin lid again and again. On the palm of her hand, there were several powerful words written:

"Palm/Thunder"

“Boom boom boom boom!!”

Lightning flashed inside the coffin until this moment -

"Boom!"

A pair of white hands smashed the upper half of the coffin, and then tore off the long red and white silk ribbon on the coffin.

The red cover with the word "甸" (Dedication) on it poked out from inside, and then accidentally slipped off due to the excessive movement, revealing the girl's face with a weird smile.

Luo Shiqin was stuck in the middle of the broken coffin board. He looked around and smiled happily at the paper people who seemed to be stunned.

“Here’s Johnny~”*[3]

I just want to ask you whether you are surprised or not, and whether you are excited or not!
