Today, the Zi Mansion was very lively. Countless guests were invited to the banquet. Ning Qi was like a bystander, sitting quietly on a stool, looking at the red lanterns hanging high in the courtyard and the people who were wantonly reveling under the lanterns.
"You look very unhappy. Are you afraid that I will jinx you to death? "
On Ning Qi's left sat the woman known as Miss Zi. There was a tea table between them, and a large group of maids and servants stood around them.
"You will jinx me to death? You are just an illusion. "
Ning Qi said lightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, his face was slightly startled. The force that had imprisoned him had completely disappeared.
Ning Qi immediately wanted to mobilize the power in his body and leave this place, but in less than a breath's time, his expression changed drastically again.
His body was empty. At this moment, Ning Qi could not find any trace of his previous cultivation, and his physical body seemed to have become as weak as a mortal!
"This is not my body."
Ning Qi's expression gradually calmed down. He did not panic, nor did he panic, but calmly thought about all possibilities.
Could it be that this illusion in front of him was carried out in his sleep? Then where was his physical body at this moment? What kind of situation was it in?
Or did someone secretly take away his physical body without him noticing and throw him into a mortal body?
"You said that I am an illusion?"
"Young master, I dare not say that. Miss is alive, how can it be an illusion?"
"But some time ago, someone said that he saw a mirage outside the south of the city. Unfortunately, when I rushed there, it had disappeared, and I did not have the chance to see that kind of scene."
"Why are you saying this? Don't you know what kind of occasion it is now? "
A group of maids chattered. If it were not for one of the older maids who stopped them, Ning Qi suspected that they might continue to talk.
Miss Zi lifted her red veil, and a beautiful face was exposed to the air, showing in front of everyone.
Even those maids felt a kind of pleasure when they saw Miss Zi's face at this moment, and they were reluctant to look away for a long time.
"Am I an illusion?"
Miss Zi looked at Ning Qi and said softly.
"You look exactly like her, and I still don't know where she came from. There can't be such a coincidence in this world. Besides, my cultivation is completely gone. You tell me, if this isn't an illusion, then what is?"
Ning Qi said with a faint smile, "If you're the eye of this illusion, then you're just a phantom with no consciousness. If you are the owner of this illusion, then we can sit down and have a good talk. You … What is your purpose? "
"Miss, did the Ning Family's son-in-law really lose his mind from rolling down the mountain? Why is it that I can't understand so many of his words? "
The slightly older maid whispered in Miss Zi's ear.
"Before I brought him back this time, he was indeed bedridden and had been in a coma for several months. He should be given some time to recover."
Miss Zi said softly.
Their voices were very soft. In the past, they would not have been able to hide it from Ning Qi. However, after falling into this illusion, Ning Qi was already a mortal without any cultivation. He was completely focused, but he could only hear about seventy to eighty percent of what they said.
"Bedridden for several months? Rolling down the mountain? "
There was a hint of mockery in Ning Qi's eyes. "This illusion of yours is too careless. I was clearly in the void and was forcibly brought here by you, but you said I was bedridden for several months?"
"You're tired. Go and rest tonight. I'll tell you in detail tomorrow."
Miss Zi glanced at Ning Qi, then sighed softly and gestured to the maid beside her.
"Please, son-in-law."
The maid immediately came in front of Ning Qi and made a gesture of invitation.
At this moment, a figure suddenly burst into the hall. It was a drunk young man with a wine pot in his hand. As soon as he saw Miss Zi, he immediately shouted loudly, "Zi Yun, I've loved you for many years. Why can't you accept me? You'd rather let that poor Ning Family's son marry into your Zi Mansion than marry me? Why! "
Ning Qi looked at this scene coldly and even wanted to laugh.
What kind of lousy illusion was this? Did the master of the illusion think that he could deceive him like this?
"Jiang Tianshu, you're drunk!"
Zi Yun stared coldly at the drunk young man.
Jiang Tianshu?
"It seems that it has indeed corroded my memory."
Ning Qi's eyes revealed a hint of seriousness.
"I'm not drunk!"
Jiang Tianshu's eyes revealed a ferocious look, and his gaze immediately fell on Ning Qi. "Ning Qi, although your Ning Family used to be a prominent family in Jiangyin City, ever since your Ning Family offended the current Emperor in the imperial court, it has become a declining family in the past few decades. There are less than ten people in total. Who gave you the courage to step into Jiangyin City again and marry into the Zi Mansion? Who is it!? "
Ning Qi looked at Jiang Tianshu indifferently and suddenly smiled. "You look exactly the same, even your name is exactly the same. It's a pity that the Jiang Tianshu I know is a prodigy of the Jiang Family in the Shenluo World. He's not a weak and frail mortal like you who can get drunk with a few cups of wine! This illusion really can't stand up to scrutiny. Hahaha! "
Jiang Tianshu was slightly stunned, and his expression suddenly became sober. He looked at Zi Yun and said in surprise, "Did this guy become an idiot from the fall?"
"My husband just needs to rest."
Zi Yun frowned and glanced at the servant next to her. "Aren't you going to bring the son-in-law back to his room to rest?"
"Wait!"
Jiang Tianshu waved his hand to stop the servant. He then walked in front of Ning Qi and looked him up and down. Then, he said with a smile,
"It seems that you really became an idiot from the fall. In the past, you didn't even dare to raise your head to look at me. Everyone in Jiangyin City knows about Ning Qi, the direct descendant of the Ning Family, who is as timid as a mouse. Now, not only do you dare to talk to me, you even said a bunch of nonsense. Wonderful! Wonderful! "
"Jiang Tianshu, that's enough!"
Zi Yun's eyes flashed with anger. He suddenly stood up and said, "Get out of here. Today is my wedding day. You're not allowed to cause trouble here!"
"What if I don't get out? Zi Yun, you're the only one left in your Zi Mansion, and you need someone to help you manage your huge family business. Although the Jiang Family is not as wealthy as you, I'm the business genius of this generation of the Jiang Family that was personally praised by the Patriarch!
Indeed, my Patriarch thinks that you're inauspicious. You've brought about the death of all my relatives, and he doesn't allow me to marry you. Now, you can marry this idiot, but in fact, you can become my woman. With me protecting your Zi Mansion, wouldn't it be perfect? "
Jiang Tianshu suddenly reached out to touch Zi Yun's cheek with the help of the alcohol.
But when his hand was halfway out, someone grabbed it.
"Trash of the Ning Family, let go of me!"
Jiang Tianshu shouted at Ning Qi.
