"Tear..."

Ni Lingmiao tore open the express parcel sent, which contained a set of artistic wedding photos taken by the studio for him and Xueyin.

He showed a very happy expression and a smile on his face.

"It's so beautiful, Xue Yin..."

His hands rubbed the album in front of him, and his fingers touched the face of his fiancée Wei Xueyin, wearing a sworn wedding dress.

"Are you good shot?"

My sister Ni Lingshuang, who was applying a facial mask, crawled out from behind and said with a smile: "It's true that she is a wolf, jackal, tiger and leopard..., no, she is a handsome man..."

"Sister..." Ling Miao was startled and said, "Don't scare me!"

"It's because you're so fascinated by it. By the way... I also sent a copy of the wedding invitation to my father. But I think the possibility of him coming to the wedding... is almost negligible."

"Oh...is it?"

Originally, it was natural for his son to get married and his father to attend. However, Ni Guangjie, the father of the sibling, was only interested in quantum physics, and had no awareness of family and family affection. He was not in China all year round, and even his current address was finally found out.

"If he refused to come... there was nothing he could do..." Ling Miao could hardly remember his father's appearance. He had just left enough savings for his family to allow the siblings to go to college, but... that's all. In addition to some physics books, his study room also had many strange mystical books, such as "The Crocodile Dynasties" and "The Myth of Cthulhu". At the same time, he also placed many horrors of Hong Kong terrorist Mei Qinghan.

"Okay, sister, I'm going to see Xueyin. The photo album is sent faster than expected, so I'll take it to her to see. There are probably a lot of people getting married today, so let's show it to her when the Civil Affairs Bureau is queuing up."

"Okay... I'll take Xueyin home for dinner in the evening. After receiving the certificate, I can call her brother and sister. I'll go buy vegetables first."

When is the happiest moment in a person's life...?

Different people have different conclusions. But there is no doubt that for Ni Lingmiao, the happiest moment in his life is now, the moment when he is about to receive a marriage certificate with Xue Yin and become a legal couple.

Because his family has enough savings, and he has become a graduate student in history, and the housing prices in this city are not as exaggerated as first-tier cities, he has purchased a new house for him and Xueyin early on, and now he is asking someone to decorate. After getting married, Xueyin and Xueyin can live in this love nest that belongs to them alone.

Happiness... Happiness... He has already thanked God too much for his favor, so he can meet Xueyin, so he will never ask for more happiness anymore. This is enough, enough... Even if his father cannot attend his wedding, it will become a shortcoming, he will not care too much. As long as he knows that his father is healthy abroad, that is enough.

But at that time, he did not realize the disasters and terrifying fate he was about to face.

He walked into the underground parking garage, walked into the BMW he purchased at the beginning of the year, placed the album in the passenger seat, and started the car. At this moment... his cell phone rang. However... it was a number he didn't recognize.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he suddenly thought of something and answered the phone.

"Hey? Is it... dad?"

"Lingmiao, I haven't seen him for many years."

"It's you... Dad..." Ling Miao was still a little relieved at this time. Although he had always resented his father to ignore him and Xue Yin in the past, even though he had never returned to China to attend their graduation ceremony when he graduated from college, after meeting Xue Yin, his heart was full of gratitude and tolerance, so he didn't mind this.

"You are going to get married, congratulations...ah."

"Dad, will you... return to China to attend the wedding? Sister, she has sent you an invitation..."

"Since it's my son's marriage, there's no reason not to come. But Lingmiao, I actually have a wedding gift and I want to give it to you."

"Gift?" Hearing this word, Ling Miao's heart was filled with gratitude, "Really? Dad?"

At this moment, if Ye Xiang was here, he would find something. When Ling Miao smiled, he looked very similar to his mother. However, after entering the Hell Cinema, his smile completely disappeared from Ni Ling Miao's face.

...

One hour later.

Through the toll station, Lingmiao came to a country highway.

Originally, today was the day to make an appointment with Xueyin to get the certificate, but the time was actually very relaxed. However, after receiving the album, he wanted to go to Xueyin in advance, but he did not contact her with his mobile phone. Xueyin had never met his father and could not have no regrets about his father not coming to the wedding. Now that his father actually said that he would give them a wedding gift, how could Ling Miao not be overjoyed? If he brought the gift to see Xueyin, wouldn’t it be more perfect?

"I have a house in the suburbs. That house is a password lock. I will send you a text message to my password. My gift is in the bedroom on the second floor, and you will see it as soon as you enter."

"Dad, are you in the country now?"

"I knew you were going to get married before, and I returned to China once... I will come on the wedding day, Lingmiao."

"Okay... OK... Dad!"

He relied on the GPS navigation in the car and spent a little time finding the house left by his father.

At that time, he didn't know what he would face. If there was a so-called regret medicine in this world, then he would never do that day.

"Well... Xueyin, I'll bring the album together in the afternoon... Are you doing hair outside?"

"After all, the photos on the marriage certificate have to be seen for a lifetime..." The sound that made Ling Miao dream of her was heard from the other end of the phone.

"In the afternoon..." Ling Miao said this, his eyebrows and eyes were filled with happiness, "We are... husband and wife."

On the other end of the phone, suddenly became silent.

"I love you, Xue Yin."

He didn't know at that time that this would be his last sentence with Xue Yin.

"I love you too, Lingmiao..."

Suddenly, the phone's signal was disconnected at this time.

After Lingmiao confirmed that there was no signal, she took off the headphones.

...

(At that time... I shouldn't have entered, I shouldn't have opened that door... Why didn't I find it?)

The cold and dark castle of Aphgomon has become his eternal cage from that day on. Human beings are so small in the universe. For stars, thousands of years have passed in a flash, but for human beings it is unreachable for human beings. But for Lingmiao, nothing is important.

His consciousness gradually woke up from the darkness at this time.

(That day, I opened the door that shouldn't have been opened...)

Ling Miao pressed the password mentioned by his father and opened the door. What came from inside was a strange, rotten smell. The room was completely backlit and the ventilation was extremely poor. After entering, it seemed like a dark world came. It was clearly noon, but Ling Miao felt a chill on his back.

(Why...I didn't find the problem at that time?)

He covered his mouth because the dust and stench in the air made him unbearable. How long has it been since no one lived here?

(Why didn’t I get out of the door at that time?)

He found the stairs and walked upwards. The smell became more and more obvious. It was obvious that the second floor was the source of the stench. This made Ling Miao feel strong uneasy, but the curiosity of human nature prevented him from stopping.

(What a foolish mistake that is... Stop, if you stop at this time, everything will be too late...)

When Ling Miao came to the second floor, he noticed that the source of the stench was in the direction of the bedroom south of the second floor as his father told him. The closer he got to the bedroom there, the stronger the smell...

(I entered a realm that was completely unmanned, and thus became a slave to the Castle of Yafogomon...)

The door... is opened.

In the dark bedroom, he couldn't see his fingers, but the stench that hit him almost vomited. What his father said about the wedding gift... is here?

(Why did I... not escape at that time?)

Ling Miao confirmed something in just three seconds...
