Chapter 496 [(*^▽^*)]
As Lin Leyou spoke, she walked out, subtly rubbing her side. She hadn't expected Xue Rui to be so wild; there must be teeth marks on her after that bite.
Xue Rui breathed a sigh of relief and touched his slightly flushed cheeks. Luckily, Lin Leyou had left quickly, so he hadn't been discovered. Actually, it was his first time doing something like this, so how could he not change his expression?
Perhaps he needs to practice more so that he can see more of Lin Leyou's flustered and shy demeanor.
Lin Leyou searched for food in the kitchen, trying to cool down her face as quickly as possible, completely unaware of the dangerous thoughts that Xue Rui was having as he slowly got out of bed in the bedroom.
When Xue Rui came out with him to wash up and prepare breakfast, both of them had returned to normal.
Lin Leyou and his group found the dishes they hadn't touched yesterday in the kitchen. They were the dishes the village chief had pointed out on the table because they had been toasted and kept drinking.
Lin Leyou said, "I didn't expect the village chief and the others to have left these dishes in the kitchen. They haven't been touched yet. They can be eaten after just heating them up. I wonder who cooked them and how they taste..."
Xue Rui: "Let me heat it up. By the way, should I make porridge, noodles, or some other staple food?"
Lin Leyou thought for a moment, "Let's cook noodles. Cooking porridge takes too long, and I'm starving!"
After all, they hadn't eaten much last night and had slept all night, so they were both very hungry and their minds were a little foggy. They needed to eat something quickly.
Xue Rui had no objections, so the two of them cooked some noodles and heated up some vegetables, making do with a simple breakfast. Although it was breakfast, they got up quite late, so it was essentially brunch.
The two starving people ate all the vegetables and each ate a large bowl of noodles!
They only remembered the gift after they finished tidying up the house.
Lin Leyou said, "Let's go take a look. I remember leaving the gifts on the table in the bedroom. I wonder what the villagers gave us."
Xue Rui also wanted to know, since he had a share of the gift after all. When the two of them entered the bedroom, they immediately saw the wooden box on the table.
Lin Leyou casually took it, and the two sat on the bed. After opening the wooden box, they found a pair of rings inside.
"It's black... no, it's a ring made of black jade!"
"System notification: Jadeite Couple Rings, a purple-grade item, can only be used by couples who have completed their wedding in Xiushan Village. Couples who love each other can communicate with each other at any time and place after wearing the rings!"
Upon seeing this notification, they were all shocked. It turned out to be a communication tool, but communication alone was not enough to qualify for purple-grade equipment, so it was not limited by time or location.
Lin Leyou stared at the black jade rings in shock. "Does this mean that even after the dungeon ends, and you don't come to Happiness Community, we can still talk anytime?"
Xue Rui blinked. If that were really the case, then these rings might be more important to him than any other props. "Try wearing them?"
He casually picked up a ring and grabbed Lin Leyou's left hand, saying, "Little You, let me put this ring on your finger."
Lin Leyou blinked. "Sure, you can wear it. We've already had our wedding, what's wrong with wearing a ring?"
Xue Rui solemnly put the ring on his finger, then looked at him with burning eyes. Lin Leyou pretended not to see it and happily admired the black jade ring on his finger.
"It really is very beautiful, and it seems to be suitable for both men and women."
He looked at Xue Rui with a smile, and seeing that he was really anxious, he picked up the last ring in the box, and with a smile, took Xue Rui's left hand and shook it, "Come on, let me put the ring on your finger!"
Xue Rui nodded quietly, staring intently at Lin Leyou's every move. He could memorize this scene frame by frame and never forget it.
After Lin Leyou put the ring on his finger, it was the perfect size. Logically speaking, the villagers shouldn't be able to make rings now, so this ring must be an old artifact left over from the past.
It's quite a coincidence that they both fit so well. Of course, it's also possible that the props automatically adjusted the size to fit them perfectly.
However, it was ultimately a good thing. Lin Leyou got up and casually picked up the wedding clothes they had tossed on the bed earlier. As he picked up the wedding clothes, the system notification appeared again.
"System notification: The wedding dress that Lin Leyou and Xue Rui obtained in Xiushan Village was handmade by the ghost villagers of Xiushan Village. It is a blue-colored item and is unique. Wearing it will increase the favorability of non-living beings!"
Lin Leyou paused for a moment before tossing Xue Rui's wedding dress to him, saying, "Take a look at this."
Xue Rui was slightly taken aback when he received it, "This is actually a blue-grade item."
Lin Leyou: "Not bad, and it only counts what's inside the coat. It seems this outer robe can be taken with me. I'll put it in my backpack and I'll definitely be able to use it later to increase the favorability of non-living things... well, ghosts!"
Xue Rui blinked and a smile appeared on his lips. He hadn't expected that in addition to getting so many points, he could also get items in this dungeon, especially the pair of black jade rings.
He subconsciously touched the ring on his finger. This ring was also a prop. If he wanted to bring it into the real world, would he have to hand over points?
But that's fine, since you can get a lot of points in this instance. Even if you hand over the points, it's okay. He can even choose a lot of items to bring to the real world.
Lin Leyou looked at him and said, "The outer robe of this wedding dress has gold dragon embroidery and black mysterious pattern embroidery. Although the fabric is red, it doesn't look like a wedding dress if you wear the outer robe alone."
Xue Rui: "You can wear this on many occasions."
The two looked around the house, tidied their backpacks, and then continued their leisurely rural life. These days, every time they went out, the villagers would cast teasing glances at them.
Xue Rui and Lin Leyou weren't particularly shy. At night, they would at most kiss and hug, and maybe touch each other a little, but nothing more.
After all, they really didn't want to take the final step in the dungeon, and for some reason, Lin Leyou always felt that he was still young, and the two of them hadn't learned how to do it, so they said they would wait two more years before talking about it.
Of course, Xue Rui didn't necessarily want to do anything here. He just had some thoughts about it. After all, the person he liked was right in front of him. They were together during the day, together at night, and even had a wedding. Although it was a wedding held in a dungeon, it was still a wedding. They were already married... so doing a little bad thing shouldn't be a problem, right?
Xue Rui felt like he had opened Pandora's box, always thinking about doing something, but Lin Leyou seriously rejected him, so he had to suppress his hidden thoughts for the time being.
Ten days later, life in the mountain village was indeed very leisurely, but no matter how good it was, one could not stay there for too long; when the time came, it was time to leave.
That day, the village chief summoned them. The three of them stood at the village entrance, and the village chief, as always, looked at them with a kind smile. "You've arrived?"
Lin Leyou nodded, his hand adorned with a ring holding Xue Rui's hand, as the two of them walked over here.
"Village chief...did you call us here because...?"
The village chief nodded. "It seems you've sensed it too. Yes, it's exactly as you thought."
Lin Leyou suddenly felt a pang of reluctance, "Village Chief..."
The village chief waved his hand, "Alright, you two little ones, you can stay here for a while, but you can't stay here forever. This isn't a good place anymore, go back, go back!"
Lin Leyou blinked. "Village Chief, we will definitely miss you, and everyone else too."
The village chief said, "That's great. If you ever remember us, feel free to come and stay for a few days. We'll always be here."
Lin Leyou smiled and said, "No problem. This place is so nice. I'll definitely come back if I have the chance."
The village chief looked at them and said, "Let's go. We'll take care of those people soon. You don't need to worry about them."
Lin Leyou and his companion were a little embarrassed. After saying goodbye to the village chief, they returned to their lodgings, found the backpacks they had brought with them when they arrived, pretended to pack some things, and then left.
When they left, the whole village was unusually quiet. They knew that it wasn't that no one saw them off; the villagers were watching them in secret!
The two walked to the village entrance, turned around and looked back at Xiushan Village shrouded in dark fog. With smiles, they raised their hands and waved in the direction of the village, as if saying goodbye.
Xue Rui took a deep breath. "Let's go, we should go back."
Lin Leyou turned to look at Xue Rui, "Okay, let's go."
He held Xue Rui's hand, and the two of them walked slowly into the distance, one in front of the other. When they reached the foot of the mountain ahead, a fog appeared. They walked into the fog and emerged from it in less than half a minute. The fog then dissipated completely within seconds.
Lin Leyou blinked in surprise after seeing the surrounding scenery, "Where is this...?"
Xue Rui turned around abruptly and saw the river with the water ghost behind them. "Let's cross the river directly."
Lin Leyou looked up at the sky. The long-unseen sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, turning into scattered golden rays that fell on them. "It's been so long since I've seen the sun."
Feeling the warmth of the sunlight, Xue Rui smiled slightly. "Should we leave this forest now, or just wait here?"
Lin Leyou thought for a moment, "Let's leave this mountain forest and let them see us leave safely."
Xue Rui nodded, "That's fine too."
They walked back along the path that had become very clear after being walked by hundreds of people. Although the path was about to be covered by vegetation again after so many days, it was still visible.
