The guest rooms were allocated, and Xiao Shuangbao and Yun Wuyao followed the servants of the house to their respective rooms. Fortunately, they were assigned to the same courtyard.
Before going in, Xiao Shuangbao instructed Yun Wuyao, "Uncle Wuyao, stay in your room and don't open the door! Unless it's dinner time and they call you to finish your meal, don't open the door no matter who calls you!"
When Yun Wuyao heard her instructions, his scalp suddenly tingled and he shivered. He quickly nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Then, the two of them went into their respective rooms.
The room was an ordinary guest room. Xiao Shuangbao went in and took a look around, but found nothing unusual.
But when she walked to the window, she found that it was sealed and could not be opened from the inside.
The four treasures of the study are placed on the table in front of the window.
Xiao Shuangbao thought about it, picked up the ink stick and ground the ink, and found that the ink in the inkstone was blood red. She picked up the brush calmly, dipped some ink, and tried to write on the paper. However, with every word she wrote, the blood-red handwriting would immediately disappear.
She had no choice but to put down the brush.
After staring at the pieces of white paper for a while, Xiao Shuangbao suddenly had an idea. He took out one and started to fold the paper.
Soon, a small paper man was folded out.
Xiao Shuangbao picked up the brush again and put a dot on each of the paper figure's eyes.
Suddenly, a pair of blood-red eyes opened before her. The little paper figure came to life, jumped in front of her, stared at her, and asked, "Why did you summon me out here?"
"Do you know where this is?" Little Shuangbao asked her in a milky voice, "I'm trapped here and can't get out. Can you take me out?"
"Want to go out? Sure." The paper man grinned, the bloodshot in his eyes becoming even brighter. "After dinner tonight, when no one is around, I'll take you out!"
Little Shuangbao nodded.
The paper man leaned against the window and said nothing more.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door: "Shuangbao! Shuangbao! Open the door for your uncle! I have something to tell you!"
Xiao Shuangbao listened to the voice, ignored it, and climbed directly onto the bed and lay down.
The knocking sound outside soon turned into the sound of some animal's claws scratching on the door. Then, a shrill cat cry was heard, and then everything returned to silence.
She glanced at the door, then at the paper man staring at her in front of the window, yawned, lay down, and quickly fell asleep.
It was not until late at night that she was awakened by a knock on the door.
When she opened the door, it was the servant who had brought them in earlier, who informed her that it was time for dinner.
"Where are the people in the next room?" Xiao Shuangbao asked with a frown when he saw that there was no movement next door.
"I don't know." Xiao Shuangbao walked over and knocked on the door and called a few times, but no one answered. She pushed the door open and saw that the room was empty.
"Could it be that Uncle Wuyao has already gone to eat? It's strange, why didn't he wait for me?" She muttered in confusion, and then followed the servant.
When they arrived at the dining area, Xiao Shuangbao didn't see Yun Wuyao, and then he realized something was wrong.
The young woman appeared again during the day.
"Everyone, my sister is getting married tonight. There will be a banquet and a wedding later. Please come and support her then." She said and left.
Dinner was also interrupted by this sudden wedding.
Little Shuangbao felt strange.
Didn’t you say during the day that you were still looking for a son-in-law?
Why are we getting married at night?
However, when the wedding started, Xiao Shuangbao saw the son-in-law who had married into the family and was stunned: "Uncle Wuyao? What's going on? How did he become someone else's son-in-law?"
"Someone knocked on the door in the afternoon asking for help. He thought it was you, so he opened the door." At this time, Qin Cheng's voice came out from the ancient bronze coin, "Then he was chosen to be the ghost groom."
"Ah? Will I knock on his door and ask for help?" Little Shuangbao held his forehead deeply and then asked, "What should I do then?"
"Interrupt the wedding. Once the wedding is completed, he will become a ghost groom and become a part of the dream. His soul will be devoured by this ghost cultivator and he will never wake up again." Qin Cheng said.
"Could that female ghost be the ghost cultivator who created the dream?"
"It's hard to say."
"I understand. We'll see how the situation develops." Xiao Shuangbao took a deep breath.
She looked around.
In this dream, she didn't know whether she and Yun Wuyao were the only two living people, or whether there were other living people trapped here by ghost cultivators through other means.
There were many guests around and it seemed very lively.
However, most of the guests had stiff and numb expressions on their faces, which made the entire wedding seem a bit weird.
Soon, the bride appeared.
Yun Wuyao had obviously been bewildered and lost himself. He was now looking at the bride with an obsessed expression, a satisfied and happy look on his face.
Little Shuangbao stared at him and couldn't help but think that Uncle Wuyao didn't seem to have anyone he liked or wanted to marry in real life, but in his dream, he was favored by the ghost bride. He didn't know how he would feel when he thought about it after he got out. Would he be afraid of marriage in the future?
But there is no time to think about this now.
Seeing Yun Wuyao holding the ghost bride's hand and preparing to get married, Xiao Shuangbao picked up a plate from the table and smashed it hard on the ground. After a crisp sound of broken porcelain, she said in a crisp voice, "Wait! I don't agree with this marriage!"
When she shouted like this, everyone in the room turned to look at her sinisterly.
Little Shuangbao didn't care about anything else and walked straight through the crowd. He stepped forward and grabbed Yun Wuyao's hand. "Uncle Wuyao, you can't marry the ghost bride! Wake up! Wake up now! If you don't wake up! You're going to be eaten by this ghost bride!"
The moment she held Yun Wuyao's hand, a wave of spiritual power suddenly spread around Yun Wuyao.
