Without waiting for Zhang Meng to ask any more questions, he had already taken her hand and walked towards the path with bright and beautiful flowers growing on both sides.
After walking a few steps, Zhang Meng quickly sensed the strange meaning in his words.
She immediately looked up at him in surprise, "Gu Mingtai, it seems that some memories that don't belong to me have flooded into my mind."
Fortunately, when those memories came flooding back, she sealed the door of memory in time and blocked those memories.
Gu Mingtai chuckled softly, tightened his grip on her hand, and said, "That's right. This path has a hallucinogenic effect that can confuse people's memories. If someone without our level of skill were to walk along it, they would easily be mesmerized by the things here, and they wouldn't even know what happened afterwards."
Zhang Meng was shocked after hearing this. "How could this happen? What about that guy Wei Qinghe?"
Zhang Meng immediately looked towards Wei Qinghe who had gone up first. That guy's steps seemed to be on wheels, very fast.
"That person has been bewitched by the illusion here, so he forgot about us and ran up first." Gu Mingtai said slowly as he looked at the disappearing figure.
Zhang Meng looked at the beautiful flowers around her and asked, "Gu Mingtai, is it because of these flowers that we have that feeling?"
Gu Mingtai immediately revealed a satisfied smile, "My little wife is getting smarter and smarter!"
Zhang Meng puffed out her chest shyly, "Of course."
Gu Mingtai continued to smile, "These flowers have a psychedelic effect. Each flower complements the other. As long as people inhale a little, they will be confused."
Zhang Meng looked at him, her eyes suddenly brightening. Just as she was about to praise him, a soft voice interrupted her, "Not bad, this comrade's explanation was very good. This comrade is really amazing. Ayi admires him."
Zhang Meng's face changed, she grabbed Gu Mingtai's arm tightly and looked around.
Gu Mingtai, with a calm expression, patted the back of her hand and said, "Don't look. She's not here. She's talking to us up there."
Zhang Meng looked up in surprise.
"It seems Qinghe has brought me two extraordinary guests. Dear guests, please come up quickly. Ayi has prepared tea for you and is waiting for you to come up."
After these words were spoken, there was no further sound for a long time.
Gu Mingtai sneered and patted the back of Zhang Meng's sweaty hand. "Don't be afraid, let's go up and meet this Grandma Ayi."
Zhang Meng nodded, holding the sleeping little zombie tightly with one hand, and letting the man beside her hold the other hand. The couple continued to walk along the flower path shoulder to shoulder.
When looking from below, the road seemed very long, but when they walked up it, Zhang Meng found that it only took them a few minutes to get up there.
When the couple reached the door of the thatched hut upstairs, they saw Wei Qinghe, who had come up earlier than them, and was happily chopping firewood for others.
"Please come in, my two distinguished guests. Tea is ready for you." Just as they stood in the yard for a while, the soft voice came from inside.
Zhang Meng quickly recited a heart-clearing mantra in her mind, and only then was she able to resist the temptation of the voice.
The young couple walked inside hand in hand.
A woman with an ancient hairstyle was already sitting at the table inside.
When Zhang Meng saw it, for a moment she felt as if she had traveled back to ancient times.
"You two, come in and sit down." The woman looked at this side with a smile.
Gu Mingtai sneered, took Zhang Meng's hand and sat next to her.
"You two, there's not much good tea in this little country town. Please bear with me." The woman gently and skillfully poured a cup of tea into the cups in front of the young couple.
The refreshing scent of floral tea immediately drifted into Zhang Meng's nose, and she felt thirsty.
"Hey, this kid is a zombie. You two are really amazing. You even carry such a thing with you." Suddenly, the woman looked at the little guy in Zhang Meng's arms, and spoke with a look of surprise and laughter on her face.
Seeing her like this, Zhang Meng was so frightened that she subconsciously took the sleeping little girl into her arms and asked angrily, "What do you want to do?"
The woman smiled and said, "My dear, you don't have to be afraid of me. I won't do anything to hurt you."
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman looked at Gu Mingtai with tears in her eyes and aggrieved look.
Zhang Meng suddenly didn't even care about the little guy, and her anxious eyes kept moving between the two of them.
If someone told her that they had no relationship, she would definitely not believe it now.
Because the way this woman looked at her husband looked like something was wrong.
"Gu Mingtai, are you sure you really don't know this woman?" Zhang Meng felt like her whole body was on fire.
Gu Mingtai had an innocent expression on his face, "I really don't know her."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately looked at the woman who had been staring at him with tears in her eyes and asked, "Comrade, tell my wife that we really don't know each other."
The woman cried even harder.
Zhang Meng snorted loudly this time, "Gu Mingtai, explain to me clearly what is going on. You didn't let down a beautiful woman here while traveling with your master, did you?"
Gu Mingtai replied with a helpless smile, "I'm really wronged. I've never even met this woman. How could I possibly know her?"
Soon, Gu Mingtai's eyes changed, and he glanced sharply at the woman who was wiping her tears with the back of her hand, "You'd better explain it clearly to my wife, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you."
The woman shed tears and looked at Gu Mingtai pitifully, "Sir, do you really not recognize me?"
Zhang Meng laughed angrily when she heard this address. She stepped hard on the big foot next to her with her left foot under the table and grinned at him through gritted teeth, "Slave, haha, you still say you two have no relationship, Gu Mingtai, you told me before that you have no romantic debts."
Gu Mingtai really wanted to cry. He glanced at the tearful woman with an even sharper gaze. "Don't cry. Explain to me clearly. When did I see you? Tell me clearly."
