All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

Holding a torch and riding a red deer horse, Wang Zhifan travels through the dark world and becomes the most dazzling person in this world.

Along the way, he encountered many monsters and came across many secret places, but he was too lazy to pay attention to most of them. He either demolished them violently or ignored them and passed through them. He was very comfortable.

At this moment, hundreds of skulls with red eyes flew in from the surrounding wilderness, bringing up a whistling cold wind and swarming around Wang Zhifan who was holding a torch on his horse.

Wang Zhifan chose to continue on his way without any additional reaction, allowing one red-eyed skull after another to crash into him, and be automatically shattered by his powerful biological force field, leaving behind bone residues connected in a line.

"From the perspective of the number of monsters and their attack strength, this dungeon is indeed very dangerous. There is almost no place to stay safely. But for me, their average combat power is too low. They can't even break through my force field defense. They are just a bunch of show-offs."

Thinking this in his mind, the red deer horse under Wang Zhifan's crotch stopped, because in the darkness ahead illuminated by the light of torches, a quiet village appeared, standing abruptly in the wasteland.

Wang Zhifan knew very well that there was no such village in front of him just now, which meant that a secret place had appeared in front of him.

The reason why he said it happened again was because he had encountered similar things many times along the way, which made him feel numb and even bored.

"Tsk tsk... a village of a hundred households suddenly appeared on this pitch-black wasteland, and it doesn't look dilapidated at all. Doesn't it clearly mean there's something wrong? Not only did you create a village, but you also didn't light up the lights and create some fireworks in the village. Are you afraid that there might be something strange inside that I don't know about?"

Looking at the quiet village ahead with the words "I am a ghost village" clearly written on it, Wang Zhifan just wanted to let the red deer horse take a detour for a moment and didn't want to waste time going in to explore. But suddenly, he discovered something and changed his mind directly, driving the red deer horse into the village entrance.

When the somewhat timid red deer horse carrying Wang Zhifan on its back carefully stepped into the village gate built with several pieces of wood, a fluctuation of the law of space suddenly appeared behind them, cutting off their retreat from the spatial level, which meant locking them in the ghost village.

Wang Zhifan had anticipated this and didn't take it to heart at all. After all, with his strength, it would be easy for him to get out, regardless of the space blockade.

Holding a torch in his hand, he rode his red deer horse slowly along the narrow village road. He saw that most of the houses on both sides of the road had their doors and windows closed. Only on the left side in front of him there was a house with a lantern hanging on the door. The lantern suddenly lit up at this moment, emitting a terrifying red light, which was very eye-catching.

"Haha, there are also guidance measures, right? Are you worried that others will get lost when they come in?"

Without hesitation, Wang Zhifan rode his red deer horse to the front of the big red lantern. He looked at the gate whose shadow was cast by the dark red light and shouted:
"Open the door! Check the water meter!"

He just shouted randomly, but he didn't expect the strange door to open, revealing an inner courtyard with two rows of red lanterns hanging on it. At the end of the inner courtyard was a large living room with hundreds of red candles lit. Under the red light, one could see a huge table in the middle of the living room, which was filled with a sumptuous banquet, wafting with the intoxicating aroma of wine and charming meat.

"This... you understand a lot! You know I'm hungry?"

Seeing the scene that seemed quite strange to others, Wang Zhifan showed a look of surprise. He rode his red deer horse and swaggered through the gate under the red lanterns, then passed through the inner courtyard with more red lanterns hanging on both sides and stopped in the middle of the inner courtyard.

"Chilu, just stop here. Don't worry, nothing will go wrong with me watching."

After getting off the horse, Wang Zhifan patted the red deer horse on the shoulder to comfort him, then walked towards the living room with the door open and a sumptuous banquet to attract people.

Upon hearing his words, the red deer horse neighed twice, showing some uneasiness, but still chose to believe him and stood obediently where it was.

Walking towards the living room in front where a large number of red candles were lit, even though the aroma of the banquet wafting from it was quite authentic, Wang Zhifan could hardly say that this was a normal environment for entertaining guests. However, he did not care about these, and walked straight in and sat down at the guest seat next to the wine table.

When he sat down, footsteps suddenly came from the living room where he was alone. A fat middle-aged man wearing a green cloth jacket and a black cap walked out from the depths of the living room. The middle-aged man stood beside Wang Zhifan with a smile on his face and said,

"Master, you are finally back. The mistress is waiting for you in the room..."

"Don't worry, I'll fill my stomach first."

Wang Zhifan also didn't care much about the butler-like figure who suddenly appeared. He glanced at the banquet on the table in front of him with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"It's all real? Not disguised by poisonous insects and rotten meat?"

I heard him mumbling something, and then he decisively picked up the chopsticks in front of him, reached out his hand, picked up a piece of Dongpo pork from the table, and put it into his mouth.

The meat was neither too big nor too small, tender and tasty, with a rich aroma. The rich meat flavor paired with the seasoned sauce made him nod his head several times and exclaim in praise:

"Not bad, not bad, it tastes great."

The fat butler who was waiting on the side smiled and narrowed his eyes into slits, and replied cheerfully:
"Master, look at what you said. I knew you would come back, so I specially asked the chef to cook it myself. How could it be poisonous insects and rotten meat? They are all your favorite dishes! Please eat first, and don't forget to go back to your room to see the young lady later..."

After saying that, the fat butler retreated silently without turning around or taking a step. He was like a gloomy phantom moving backwards. During the process, his squinting eyes were fixed on Wang Zhifan who was eating. The smile on his face looked quite strange under the red light of the surrounding candles.

If most people noticed this scene, they would most likely rush out of the living room and run out the door out of fear, but Wang Zhifan didn't care at all. He continued to happily eat the delicacies on the table, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it slowly while sitting in the haunted house, looking very leisurely.

There is no way. When a person is strong enough and knows clearly that there is no real threat to him from the outside world, it is difficult for him to care about the sneaky cats and dogs around him and it is difficult for him to take them seriously.

However, choosing to eat and drink in such a place and deliberately eating at such a slow pace was not because Wang Zhifan suddenly wanted to enjoy himself, but because he did it on purpose.

At this time, at the entrance of the ghost village in the wilderness, three NPCs who were ragged and thin like wild ghosts were watching carefully, observing the village with red light in front of them, and smelling the faint aroma of wine and meat emanating from the village.

There were two men and one woman in total, one of them was probably in his thirties or forties, and the rest was a teenager. They looked a bit like a family of three.

"That person is still alive? He seems to be eating a deadly meal? He is so bold..."

The oldest man swallowed imperceptibly, looking towards the direction of the banquet aroma wafting from the village, with a strong instinctive desire in his heart, but reason told him that it would be better not to go in. "That's definitely not a human! I have never seen someone like that who dares to hold a torch outside. He must be a ghost in disguise!"

The woman, who might be in her early thirties, immediately retorted in a low voice, but her eyes betrayed her. It was a look of extreme desire for delicious food that nailed her firmly in place.

The man immediately shook his head after hearing this, his messy long hair making a slight friction sound, and he slowly replied:

"Li, Master said that no ghosts would appear in front of us so brazenly. They prefer to appear suddenly and kill us. So I dare say that it must be a living person, a person who can survive while holding a torch and riding a horse..."

When he finished speaking, the young man standing next to the two of them suddenly stepped out and rushed towards the entrance of the ghost village regardless of anything, causing the men and women behind him to look horrified.

"Xiao Qiang, what are you doing! Come back quickly!"

The man shouted in a low voice, turning his head to look around as if he was afraid that something would suddenly appear in the darkness.

The woman went a step further and rushed towards the running boy at an explosive speed, reaching out to grab him, but she was a step too slow after all, and rushed into the strange village ahead right next to the boy.

As for the man behind them, he originally wanted to turn around and leave, but he suddenly found something approaching in the darkness, as if attracted by their previous movements. The change in the situation forced him to rush into the ghost village ahead, because there were dangers in front and behind, and the danger in front at least had someone to accompany him.

Soon, the three reunited in the ghost village. Once they entered this place, it would be difficult for them to leave. All three knew this, but they were not desperate.

"Master said that as long as we don't eat the food that will end our lives, there is hope of survival. We must remember this."

The man with long hair explained the next key points to save his life while taking out a bronze mirror from his pocket with a very cautious look.

But he soon discovered something wrong. The two companions in front of him did not respond to him. They stood there like two pillars, one tall and one short, which made him feel a chill in his spine.

"Exorcism!"

Without any hesitation, he pointed the bronze mirror in his hand at the woman and the boy who were standing blankly in front of him. A faint light emanated from the bronze mirror and penetrated into the bodies of the woman and the boy, causing them to shudder all over.

"I'm being controlled by a ghost! It wants me to eat a life-destroying meal! Save me!"

The woman who had regained consciousness turned to the man and spoke with fear on her face, while she walked on her own towards the depths of the village. The movement of her turning her head and walking looked awkward no matter how you looked at it.

The young man remained silent and walked silently in the direction of the red lanterns. After a few steps he started running and he did not seem to be forced.

In a blink of an eye, the man was left behind by them again. He stood there for half a second, then suddenly ran forward, constantly using the bronze mirror in his hand to shine on the woman and the boy in front of him, trying to help them break free from their control.

However, his actions soon aroused a reaction from the ghost village. A blood-red lantern suddenly appeared behind him and approached him at a rapid speed.

The man seemed to be very frightened by this strange lantern. For a moment, he ran faster than the woman and the boy in front of him, and rushed directly to the gate of the house where Wang Zhifan was.

After he stopped, he turned around to look at the red lantern that had been chasing him. He relaxed a little when he found that the lantern had disappeared. Then he looked at the scene inside the gate with some surprise.

Because he found someone eating the life-threatening meal leisurely, and even waved to him, asking him to come in and eat together.

"This person is doomed. The more he eats, the more miserable his death will be!"

According to his master's teachings, the man made a judgment in his heart, and then as if to verify his idea, he saw the rumored ghost butler appear and float to the side of Wang Zhifan who was eating and drinking.

The ghost butler seemed to be urging him to do something, but Wang Zhifan was unmoved. He said something casually and continued to eat. The ghost butler on the side suddenly became so angry that his face turned green, and his horrible true appearance was about to be revealed, but Wang Zhifan, who was drinking, happened to raise his hand and waved it, as if he was driving away a non-existent mosquito, and the figure of the ghost butler immediately shattered and disappeared like a phantom.

"Master said that this ghost steward is very powerful and no one can fight against it...but why was it...driven away?"

The man at the door of the Red Lantern Mansion was suddenly shocked. He almost imagined the scene of Wang Zhifan being forcibly dragged away by the ghost butler, but the result was that the ghost butler retreated instantly and there was no confrontation between the two at all.

At this time, two figures, one tall and one short, walked through the door and headed towards the wine table where Wang Zhifan was. They were the woman and the young man.

The two men might have been affected by ghosts and rushed straight to the table full of wine and meat. Especially the young man, he ran very fast and seemed eager to feast.

But Wang Zhifan on the seat did not intend to let them have their way. He suddenly turned his head to look at the woman and the boy who were approaching quickly. The woman and the boy screamed at the same time, turned into black shadows and disappeared without leaving any residue.

"How dare you, little brat, disturb me while I'm eating? Come in, buddy at the door! The food is getting cold!"

After killing the woman and the boy, who was not sure whether they were human or ghost, in seconds, Wang Zhifan looked at the man standing at the door and shouted, showing a different kind of enthusiasm.

At this moment, the man felt cold sweat dripping from his forehead, because he suddenly remembered that he came out alone today and did not bring Ali and Xiaoqiang with him. So what was that thing that had been accompanying him before?
"Thanks to this treasure my master gave me, otherwise I would have died long ago..."

Holding the bronze mirror tightly in his hand, the man under the red lantern door gritted his teeth, walked into the gate, and walked towards Wang Zhifan who greeted him inside.

He knew very well that he could not eat the life-threatening meal here, and he could not even look at it, but Wang Zhifan's performance just now made him realize that he had definitely met a strange person, a strange person like his master, and this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After all, he had lost contact with his master a long time ago. If he didn't seize the opportunity to get to know him, his hope of surviving in this world would be very slim. (End of this chapter)
