In a pre-defined time loop, you experience the same things every day.
The cycle repeats endlessly, and one can never escape.
Clearly, meeting Xiaoyu was the starting point of the cycle, and the sea monster killing the entire village was the ending point.
Xiao Mu asked worriedly, "Master, what should we do?"
"Just a boring dream loop," Lin Xi said calmly. "I've ventured into the Ghost Realm and captured thousand-year-old corpses. Taking you out of here is easy for me."
The question now is who has the fragment: Xiaoyu, Aruo, or the sea monster?
Previously, the fairies killed the sea monster, and the villagers and mermaids all died, with the fragments disappearing without a trace.
Let's try a different approach this time.
Since it's a dream, let's just break it.
Lin Xi used the same excuse to deceive Xiao Yu and easily entered her house.
The old village chief was all smiles, his fierce expression completely gone, replaced by a kind and amiable face.
"Honored guest, please have a seat."
Lin Xi was too lazy to exchange pleasantries with him. "Xiao Yu, what time is your older sister getting married?"
Xiaoyu looked confused. "There is no elder sister. Mother died in childbirth. Sister Xiaoxi is mistaken."
Xiao Tu remembered it clearly, and said with unwavering conviction, "Impossible! Your elder sister's name is Aruo, and she looks just like you. She will be getting married at four quarters past midnight."
“You’re mistaken,” Xiaoyu corrected him. “I don’t have an older sister. I’m the one getting married tonight.”
Xiao Tu wanted to say something more, but Lin Xi stopped her, saying, "You're marrying Cang Lin."
"Huh? How did you know?!"
Xiaoyu blushed shyly, like a girl whose secret had been exposed, her ears turning a rosy red.
She whispered, "Cang Lin and I grew up together and were already engaged. Your arrival today is just in time."
Xiao Tu froze. "No, that's not right."
Canglin is the sea god, so it's impossible for him and Xiaoyu to be childhood sweethearts.
Is there something wrong with his memory, or has his dream changed?
Xiao Tu scratched his hair hard, his eyebrows furrowed, "Master, this..."
Lin Xi shook her head and slowly explained, "There's nothing wrong with my memories, and there's nothing wrong with my dreams either."
“We are outsiders. When we entered the dream, we broke the original cycle. What we saw last time was a superposition of reality and dream.”
Last time, everyone was acting strangely. The villagers kept getting stuck, the merman, despite being a sea god, had no fighting skills, and Xiaoyu and Aruo looked like twins, yet they were killed by a sea monster in the end...
The dreams we weave should be happy and beautiful, without a trace of pain.
What we see and hear now is the true dream.
The fragments on Xiaoyu's body still had a very faint aura, not as strong as those of the faceless sea monster.
Lin Xi sat down and rubbed her temples. "I need to rest for a bit. We're about to fight again."
"Yes, Master."
The little elves sat side by side on the ground.
Xiaoyu brewed a pot of tea as usual and began to tell her story with Canglin, piling up various words.
"Cang Lin is a boy from the next village. When we were kids, we caught fish together and raised seashells together. He would give me pretty little stones and help me catch fish."
"When we grew up, he went out to sea to fish, and I stayed at home to weave cloth. We used the money we saved to build our own house, which was small but I liked it."
“Three days ago, he confessed his love to me. Our relatives in the village supported us and sent their blessings.”
Xiao Mu felt increasingly strange as she listened. "My God! Xiao Yu is like an NPC telling a ghost story. We've entered a horror loop."
Xiaoyu's words were full of loopholes; it's impossible for a man and a woman who are not yet married to live in the same room.
In ancient times, the wedding process was complicated, and it was impossible to get married in three days. Villagers would also send their blessings.
Xiaoyu ignored the person next to her and continued talking about sweet things.
"Cang Lin and I naturally got together..."
Lin Xi glanced at her. "It's precisely because it's impossible that it's a dream."
The timeline in my dream was chaotic and illogical.
Reality is so bitter, so you should be bold in your dreams.
Lin Xi sighed, "Dreams are false happiness."
Fu Jingyao held her hand tightly, "Xixi, whether in dreams or in the real world, we will never be apart."
The man's dark eyes were lowered, and his voice was a little hoarse, like an adorable cat begging for its fur to be stroked.
Having ignored him for so long, Lin Xi focused on fragmented matters and forgot that there was someone else beside her.
I used to go out alone to catch ghosts and was used to the feeling of loneliness, but this time is different.
Lin Xi nodded, her gaze earnest and resolute. "Yes, we'll never be apart."
The little elves were already used to it, finding the best spot to watch this scene.
Xiao Mu took out his Polaroid camera to capture the beautiful moment.
Click!
Xiaoyu suddenly snapped back to reality, her gaze towards Linxi filled with complex emotions: nostalgia, envy, resentment, and loneliness...
She pushed open the door and went out, her bright smile returning. "I'm getting married. I'm marrying Canglin."
The scene shifts to a house decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
The villagers wore gentle smiles and carried a large red lantern in their hands.
The candlelight cast long shadows, like a red carpet.
Xiaoyu stood at the front, dressed in a gorgeous wedding gown, her head adorned with pearl hairpins, and a multicolored, shimmering bead hanging on her chest.
The villagers surrounded her, offering their blessings and advice.
"Xiaoyu, you will be a wife and no longer a child. Husband and wife should be tolerant of each other."
"Cang Lin is a good lad, and he's a perfect match for Xiao Yu."
"Xiaoyu, Grandma wishes you and Canglin a lifetime of happiness."
Xiaoyu thanked them all, her hair radiating happiness, and slowly walked into the ancestral hall.
The man in red turned around, revealing long, slender legs, snow-white skin, and exquisite features.
Xiao Shui's eyes widened. "Lord Canglin is even more beautiful without a fish tail, and his name sounds nice too."
He slapped the little elf next to him hard, "Little Wood, quickly take a picture, it's such a pity that such a face is gone."
