A Genius and a God Fell In Love

After the judge finished the countdown, he flicked the candles in the hands of the lamp bearer and extinguished them.

The night receded and dawn dawned.

The silent town became lively.

Doors and windows are opened and residents begin their day's activities.

Shadow, a young woman working in Buzhuang, has returned to normal.

But she behaves the same as she did the day before, stretching, greeting her neighbors, and getting about her day's work.

After this night, half of the players were missing, and Liu Yan was not among them.

Almost every remaining player had lingering panic on their faces.

They looked at each other, not looking very good, looking listless and extremely tired.

When they heard Qian Xia's exclamation, their nerves became tense again.

"What happened to Shadow?"

He Yu lowered his head and his expression suddenly changed.

His shadow has split into half.

If the division continues, they will definitely become ghosts like the residents of the town.

"Fuck, my shadow."

"There's something wrong with my shadow, too."

Players one after another discovered the problem.

The players whose shadows had no problem retreated one after another, staying far away from them.

The man in the shirt grabbed the beautiful woman's wrist and said, "Let's go."

The woman frowned and looked at the others, then left without saying a word.

He Yu quickly calmed down and said calmly: "Qian Xia, please stay away. I don't know if this situation will be transmitted to you. Please stay away."

Qian Xia said: "How did you come out?"

He Yu said: "We saw you and were about to call you, and then it got light."

Players will gather on the street after dawn, just like the daily life of small town residents.

The hedgehog-headed boy panicked, "What should we do? Will we turn into ghosts?"

The beret girl said tremblingly: "Don't worry, our shadows have not continued to split, and we still have time to save ourselves."

"How to save?!" The young man collapsed, "I thought it was difficult enough to extract ghosts, but I never thought that we ourselves would become ghosts."

He Yu suddenly looked around, looked around and said, "Where is Nangong? Why didn't she appear here?"

Qian Xia's face changed slightly, and he immediately looked around. The players left in twos and threes, but Nangong Nan was nowhere to be seen.

"Did you see it?"

she asked the boy and the beret girl.

The girl shook her head and said, "I didn't see it, she didn't come here."

Qian Xia's heart shrank. All the survivors would appear on the street after dawn. Nangong didn't show up. Could it be that she...

Will not.

Qian Xia immediately denied the bad thoughts that came to her mind. Nangong was so smart with a reward nearby, so nothing would happen to her.

"What are we going to do now?"

A male player whose shadow also showed signs of splitting said, "I can't remember why my shadow split?"

"There are still four hours left, and the ghosts we have drawn are not even one-tenth. We will definitely be wiped out in this round of the game."

He Yu comforted everyone: "We will still have a chance until the last moment. Don't stand here. Let's break through first."

"If your life is not saved, what kind of challenge can you get through?"

The beret girl pulled the boy's sleeve and said, "Don't worry, let's find a solution together."

"any idea?"

The young man was very irritable, "There are less than four hours left. If we can't finish the ghosting, we will all die."

Qian Xia frowned, turned around and left.

He Yu quickly followed, and the others looked at each other and decided to act together.

The beret girl pulled the boy and followed him.

On the other side, the man in shirtsleeves and the beautiful woman hiding behind the house looked at them leaving and then withdrew their gaze.

The man in the shirt said: "It's so scary. I didn't expect players to become ghosts."

The beautiful woman frowned slightly and said, "We should ask what happened to them so that we can be prepared in the future."

The man in the shirt patted the woman's arm and said, "Don't be afraid, I have a reward and I will protect you."

The woman smiled at him, her smile so charming that the man in the shirt almost lost control.

He swallowed and couldn't help but ask: "It's still early and you haven't rested for several hours. How about we find a place to rest?"

The woman pretended not to understand what he meant by "rest", and said anxiously: "Let's go through the level first. All the players in this round are making slow progress. If we don't work harder, the whole army will definitely be defeated." Overturned."

The man patted her soft little hand, comforted her, and took the opportunity to touch it, "Don't worry, there are more than a dozen people working hard, including the two of us. There is an inn ahead, so let's go and have a rest."

The woman smiled, "But we don't have money."

"You can do the hard work in exchange. Don't worry, I'm very strong. You go and take a nap while I do the hard work."

The woman sneered in her heart. If she believed his words, her life would have been in vain for so many years.

No matter how contemptuous and speechless she was in her heart, it didn't show on her face at all. She said softly: "Let's go later, let's break through the barrier first."

Seeing that she was relieved, the man immediately agreed happily.

——

After the judge finished the countdown, Nangong Nan woke up.

The illusion here was consistent with the time outside, so naturally she didn't dare to sleep, just to deal with the scholar's godfather's wishes.

The sky outside the window went from fish-belly white to morning sun in just a few seconds.

Nangong Nan did not get up, but lay on the bed thinking about the things in the fantasy.

There were secrets about the scholar and his wife that she didn't know about. She couldn't tell the truth just from their words and deeds last night.

However, now that she is their daughter, things should be much easier. After all, the scholar is a true daughter-in-law.

On the contrary, the lady who accompanied him didn't seem to be very close to him.

The relationship between the two is very strange when you think about it carefully.

There were footsteps coming from outside the door. Nangong Nan sat up and waited for her to observe and test again.

The door knocked from outside, "Xiaonan, are you up?"

Although the old woman's voice is old, it is very kind, but it can be judged from her voice that she was a gentle and elegant lady in her youth.

Nangong Nan got out of bed and went to open the door.

The old woman was still wearing the dress from last night, and her sight was no longer blocked during the day, and Nangong Nan could see her more clearly.

She has a slim figure, wears a gray-white double-breasted skirt, and has her white hair tied into a simple bun.

Seeing Nangong Nan, his face immediately softened. Because his expression was too gentle, he looked a little stiff and uncomfortable, and even had an element of fawning in it.

Nangong Nan secretly thought about it. When she talked to the scholar last night, she acted obediently and gently, and her tone was flattering.

It's the same with her now.

She was afraid of offending them, since she and the scholar were obviously relatives who had been together for many years.

Why?

"Godmother." The girl's pretty face revealed a sweet and lovely smile.
