Weird Talker

Chapter 297 Shen Hong
"jingle--"

A crisp bell rang, and two figures suddenly appeared in the old city south of the city, outside the Huai'an community.

Under the dim moonlight, the tall old locust tree stretched out its branches quietly, covering the whole block.

When everything condensed into essence and appeared in front of Xu Yi's eyes, he finally came to his senses.

Recalling what happened just now, Zhong Xueran came to his senses and used [Sanqingling] to get him out of the distorted shadow, and traveled through most of the city to the predetermined location in the game [Huian Community].

Wait, what happened from Zhong Xueran's perspective?
Xu Yi looked back at her.

Under the moonlight, Zhong Xueran stood sideways, and the moonlight shone on her completely unfamiliar face, but the flashing look in those eyes proved that she was still Zhong Xueran at this moment, not someone else.

"Remember to owe me a favor."

Zhong Xueran turned his head and looked at Xu Yi with a smile on his face.

"Why did you bring me here?" Xu Yi walked to her side and asked aloud.

"I saw it." Zhong Xueran said.

"When I became her, her memory was showing me undefended."

Her explanation made Xu Yi understand what the so-called beneficial information really meant.

If a man and a woman partner to face the curse of the big red sedan chair together, the woman can get the relevant memory of the ghost, that is indeed rare beneficial information.

But obviously, the price to be paid for obtaining this information is also extremely heavy. She may irreversibly become a female ghost until she dies.

Male players will also be irreversibly sacrificed to lose their vitality.

This is simply a way to die and survive.

"The root of this weird talk is indeed the wedding dress."

she says.

"Which wedding dress?" Xu Yi asked.

"Let me tell you a story."

Zhong Xueran turned his head, looked at Xu Yi, and said.

----

The old district in the south of Fucheng is not only an old city, but also has many strange traditions and crafts.

Sewing traditional wedding dresses is one of them.

Shen Hong's father, Shen Yi, is the inheritor of traditional wedding dress craftsmanship.

But this craft Shen Yi did not pass it on to his daughter Shen Hong, but to his disciple Liu Junyan.

Because Liu Junyan's craftsmanship and ingenuity are much better than Shen Hong's, in Shen Yi's view, teaching Liu Junyan this skill can not only inherit the mantle, but even have the possibility of carrying it forward.

Traditional wedding dresses are always made by hand one stitch at a time, which is also the embodiment of the highest level of dyeing and embroidery technology.

The tailoring method is also ingenious. Every pattern and every detail has a clear meaning. The traditional ideas of "harmony between man and nature" and "Tao follows nature" should also be included in the pattern and style of the wedding dress. This is really not a small project .

Making a wedding dress is extremely labor-intensive.

Shen Yi's wedding dress shop is also closed for half a year, and it looks like it has been open for half a year. His production is too delicate and exquisite, and it has won the love of almost everyone in the old city.

However, just over a month ago, strange things gradually happened in the Shen family.

Logically speaking, it should have been a happy event, because Liu Junyan, the successor of the Shen family, and Shen Hong, the only daughter of the Shen family, were about to get married.

But the good news is coming, but the wedding dress can't be finished yet.

For Shen Yi, his daughter's wedding must wear the best wedding dress. For Liu Junyan, the wedding dress for his new wife should also be designed by himself.

The two men didn't argue, they just devoted themselves to designing wedding dresses, and let Shen Hong choose after they were made.

but……

More and more materials were consumed, but the state of the two became more and more strange.

Shen Hong's mother passed away early, but she could occasionally hear her father talking to someone outside his studio.

During the conversation, the object of the conversation was the mother!

But when she opened the door and entered to see what happened, she found that her father was only talking to a red wedding dress that had just been cut out roughly.

After seeing Shen Hong enter the house without saying hello, Shen Yi was even more furious: "Who let you in!"

"Get out! Get out!"

Her father drove her away with red eyes, tore off the semi-finished wedding dress, and threw it on the ground like trash.

Shen Hong felt that her father's state was a little scary, so she went to her husband Liu Junyan to discuss it.

But when she saw Liu Junyan's appearance, she was immediately stunned.

Liu Junyan looked haggard as if his flesh and blood had been sucked dry, curled up on the ground, holding his head in pain, looking at the exquisite big red wedding dress, murmured:

"I won't do it... I won't make a wedding dress..."

"Brother Liu, what's wrong with you?" Shen Hong felt extremely distressed.

The two most important men in her life were both making wedding dresses for her, but one became irritable and the other became haggard, which was really unacceptable to her.

"I won't do it... Brother Liu, I won't wear a wedding dress! Let's get married like this, it's okay..."

She hugged Liu Junyan and cried loudly.

But Liu Junyan shook his head in despair: "I can't stop..."

"I don't want to make this dress...but...I can't stop!"

Shen Hong was shocked by her husband's words. She didn't understand what Liu Junyan meant by saying that she couldn't stop. She just felt that if she continued to do this, her father and husband would have serious problems.

So, regardless of what her father and husband thought, she snatched all their clothes, piled them up in the yard, and burned them!
Liu Junyan and Shen Yi frantically went to put out the fire and rescue the half-finished wedding dress, but they were still burnt to ashes in the end.

She thought her life would be back on track.

but……

Shen Hong gradually began to feel that something was wrong with the spirit of his father and Liu Junyan.

The two began to talk to themselves in the air and the corner, and occasionally got up in the middle of the night, staring blankly at the mirror with the cloth in their hands, without saying a word for a long time.

Every time she saw that scene, she couldn't help being terrified.

She wanted to take the two to see a psychiatrist, but she couldn't take the two men away by force.

Those two people... Sometimes the way they looked at her gave her goosebumps.

In early November, she suddenly fell ill.

She couldn't explain why, but with this body, she suddenly fell ill.

The husband and father also seem to have suddenly returned to normal, busy around her, taking care of her with all their heart.

But her illness is still getting worse.

She was too weak to get up, and the two men were still unwilling to take her to the hospital.

She could only lie helplessly on the sickbed, feeling weaker and weaker day by day.

That day... when she was so ill that her consciousness was blurred, she suddenly felt something cold moving on her arm, but she was too tired and too weak to open her eyes at all.

When she woke up, her left hand was bloody and the skin had been peeled off.

Then, she felt her calf was icy cold again, as if a sharp knife had been drawn across it...

The shadows of the two men squatted beside the bed, their hands gleaming coldly, as if they were busy with something.

Every day after that, a piece of skin on her body was lost.

Until...she saw "father" and "husband" standing by the bed, cutting open her abdomen with a sharp knife shining with cold light, and took off the skin of the abdomen. The eyes of the two men flashed inhuman Excited look.

"This is the best material..."

"I will definitely be able to make the best wedding dress!"

"whee……"

"..."

"I don't want to die..."

"help me……"

"I don't want to die..."

"help me!"

Zhong Xueran's voice stopped abruptly.

She looked up at the huge locust tree, and said in a low voice:

"This is her perspective, her flayed body, which ended up buried under this tree."
