The four demons were horrified upon seeing this. They failed to summon water, as water was useless and could only stop the flames. The flames were merely a by-product of Hu Hongniang's magic.

The true composition of her fireworks is actually the special energy from her internal organs, but it is presented in the form of flames, which can be regarded as a variation of vitality.

They quickly cast their best spells, poison cloud, stinking cloud, and disease cloud mixed with needles. Among the four spells, the disease cloud had the strongest resistance ability. When the other three spells dissipated, they were still able to hold on to the "flame".

Even so, Huoyun was still pressing towards the four of them. Seeing that they could no longer hold on, Lao Shu quickly shouted, "We surrender this round!"

A scream was heard, Hu Hongniang put away the fire, opened her mouth and coughed up blood and blood clots, and was supported by Ning Zongyuan to prevent her from falling. The two exchanged glances, as if no one was around.

"Cough cough."

The withered old monk took a few steps forward, focusing more on Hu Hongniang, not forgetting the others. "Since the first level is a test of strength, the second level is a test of the heart. I think the following levels will all be tests of the heart, but with different emphases."

"I wish to test the 'goodness' in the hearts of the donors. Please do not hide the truth or make any unfavorable remarks. Amitabha."

The old monk put his hands together and chanted, and a field full of merits enveloped the surroundings, and everyone felt a sense of oppression and restriction.

Simply put, in this field, people who are weaker than him cannot lie or have any verbal misleading ideas. Things like telling the truth in a misleading way will not work.

Staring at Hu Hongniang, he asked, "If a human baby, unrelated to you, were to appear before you when you were extremely hungry, what would you do?"

The voice was like a loud bell, and the words were completely directed at Hu Hongniang, who was a monster.

The other five test takers were stunned and immediately gave their answers. The four monsters of course chose to eat, but Ning Zongyuan chose not to eat without hesitation.

The most important thing is not these five. They looked at Hu Hongniang. The three monsters showed joy on their faces, while the hedgehog and the scholar were a little worried.

Hu Hongniang was stunned by the sharp question and opened her mouth several times but couldn't say anything. As a fox, her instinct made her naturally want to ignore the question in a more tactful way.

But under the influence of the field, she was misleading others, so she couldn't speak at all.

"Hey, tell me!"

Some of the monsters in the ghost market fell into deep thought, while some began to make a fuss, having realized how difficult this problem was for Hu Hongniang.

She is a monster. Even if she falls in love with a human, when choosing between her life and a human baby who has nothing to do with her, would she still think the baby is more important?

Chapter 400: Incompatible personalities.

Of course, your own life is more important.

All the monsters think so. Not to mention human babies, even if their own children are in front of them and are in extreme danger and hunger, many monsters are willing to eat them.

"Hey, bald donkey,"

One monster disagreed and said in dissatisfaction, "Don't even mention us monsters. Even humans will eat each other when they're hungry. What's the point of your question?"

"Amitabha."

The monk whispered, but chose not to remain silent. Instead, he explained earnestly: "Demons and demons have different paths. It's not race or bloodline that caused this. Willpower is the key."

"The scholar is willing to cut off his flesh to feed the baby, but if the donor Hu instead devours the baby, their personalities will be so different that they will encounter great adversity after their union, and sooner or later they will grow tired of each other..."

The monk looked at the matter from a very practical perspective and did not simply want to obstruct it, or in other words, he directly pointed out the problems that might be encountered in the future.

From a modern perspective, if a boyfriend and girlfriend have different interests and hobbies, their emotions and personalities are not compatible, and even their values are completely different, they will probably get divorced soon after getting married.

The four people present could be considered as matchmakers. The monk, as one of the matchmakers, let the scholar know in advance that the red fox is still a monster at least "for now" and will still think from the perspective of a monster.

The wildness and evil nature have not been eliminated, and the two people with different values will be unhappy in the future. If, if Hu Hongniang does something that is considered unforgivable by Confucian scholars in the future, what will he do?

The monk was making him think, and was also making Hu Hongniang think, just like Uncle Guo testing Lu and Guo in "The Legend of Wulin".

Of course, the reason why he only asked the fox was because the monk wanted to do so. He was just displeased with the monster.

Hu Hongniang was silent for a while, perhaps trying to organize her words, or perhaps trying to find a loophole in the monk's magic, but in the end, her shoulders relaxed and she stared at Ning Zongyuan beside her:

"If I'm really desperate, I'll eat the baby."

Hearing the answer, Ning Zongyuan's body trembled, and his expression changed slightly when he looked at Hu Hongniang. He realized her side as a demon, or as "evil".

The monk knocked the small wooden fish in his hand, but there was no response. He stared at Hu Hongniang and continued to question her, "If Ning Shusheng is in imminent danger and needs a blood sacrifice to survive, are you willing to do it?"

"I'm willing, even if it means sacrificing myself."

This time Hu Hongniang answered quickly, without looking at Ning Zongyuan's expression. She also knew that this was against his will. The scholar refuted the question and said it was impossible:

"My father is the governor. This kind of thing can't possibly happen!"

"Then the governor was demoted due to official struggles."

The monk added lightly, leaving the scholar no room for rebuttal. He continued to question the fox. It was not so much the difference between humans and demons, but more the difference between "good and evil":

"if……"

“If…” “If…”

After a whole set of questions, Hu Hongniang's "flaws" were almost completely exposed, shattering Ning Zongyuan's filter for her.

In his eyes, Hu Hongniang was a petite and pitiful person, who was obedient and suitable to be a wife, even a legal wife, a confidante, and a woman who could accompany him for a lifetime.

But she is still essentially a descendant of the immortals from the bitter cold land, and she has definitely committed a lot of burning, killing and looting. The evil thoughts in her heart will not disappear completely because of her contact with him during this period of time, but they have only been reduced.

If Ning Zongyuan had a personality like Lu Yan, who cared more about close people and didn't care about strangers who had no relationship with him, then naturally there would be no problem.

But he is a Confucian scholar, and at least he still has integrity and is willing to act for justice. The other side of Hu Hongniang is probably unbearable for him.

The two men's faces turned pale. Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at the monk, imagining maliciously whether the monk also had a past that he could not bear to look back on.

After a series of questions were asked, some of the male and female monsters present were also asked. They were also the aliens who were secretly with humans and consciously loved the one opposite them.

The monks' questioning broke their "love brain". Now their demon bodies have not been exposed, so how will they get along with the people they love in the future?

"One last question,"

After asking all he wanted to ask, the monk stared at Hu Hongniang and said, "All of the above proves that you and the scholar are incompatible. If so, are you willing to change your nature for the scholar?"

"I am willing!"

Hu Hongniang agreed quickly, being unusually resolute in this area. When she said she was willing to change, the monk closed his eyes and uttered his final words: "Put down your butcher knife and become a Buddha right here on earth. Well done, well done."

The monk took a few steps back and gestured to the ghost holding the oil-paper umbrella to come forward. Unlike the monk, the female ghost cast a malicious gaze on Ning Zongyuan.

Turning the oil-paper umbrella in her hand, the resentful woman threw it, letting it fall on the heads of Ning Zongyuan and Hu Hongniang. Dazzling colorful phantom light fell down, and the two of them resisted for a moment, their eyes became blank, and they fell into a state of trance.

Light also shone through the top of the oil-paper umbrella, projecting his experience in the dream.

"Ning Lang, Ning Lang, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Ning Zongyuan slowly opened his eyes, looked at Hu Hongniang who was pushing him, stood up and stretched, stroking his hair. He had a slight headache and felt like he had forgotten something.

He looked around and found himself lying on a desk with books on it. He vaguely recalled that he seemed to have fallen asleep last night after being tired from reading.

"Come and have some tea, Ninglang. It looks like you had a nightmare."

Hu Hongniang handed the tea to Ning Zongyuan. After taking a sip, his mind suddenly became much clearer. He cleared the fragments in his mind and smiled at the beauty in front of him: "I have forgotten what I dreamed about. Are you living well in the Ning Mansion?"

The two people in the dream felt that time was passing very slowly, but in fact, time was passing quickly, and the picture was constantly accelerating. Only Lu Yan could clearly see the dream presented by the high-speed picture.

Well, it was basically a normal and peaceful life without any danger or crisis, at least from his perspective.

"Humph……"

The umbrella-holding woman snorted coldly and finally started her operation. More magic power flowed into it and began to change the original direction.

"They're all so fussy. Luckily, the girls here are mostly kind and neutral, with similar personalities."

Lu Yan muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with a special light. The Da Kun network connection in the jade pendant had been activated, and the trial was seen by someone from beginning to end.

"Thank you, Taihu Divine Envoy, otherwise I might not have known about this for a long time."

The middle-aged man's voice rang out, and Lu Yan responded in a low voice: "So what are you going to do with these two people?"

"...Let's see again, let's see again."

401

Chapter 401 A dream.

The woman holding the umbrella can control the dreams she creates. After accelerating time, she also added a lot of things to the dreams, such as adding a lot of women in the days after Ning Zongyuan.

There are all kinds of them, enchanting and charming, cold and indifferent, cute and lovely...

They appeared in various forms, making Ning Zongyuan's life fuller. As for whether they had any influence, they definitely did.

Ning Zongyuan followed his own habits and unconsciously became close to others, or was very willing to help everyone, and established many connections in the process of helping them.

He did not neglect Hu Hongniang because of this, nor did she feel inexplicably jealous. She was also willing to lend a helping hand to Ning Zongyuan when he helped others.

Looking at the happy scene, the expression of the woman holding the umbrella is very ugly, just like a resentful woman in the boudoir. She is probably the one who has suffered a setback in love and was abandoned or even killed by the man, so she doesn't want to see this kind of scene.

But what she seemed to be angry about was not the fact that Ning Zongyuan had established good relationships with many people and that a harem was taking shape, but rather the fact that the relationship between Hu Hongniang and Ning Zongyuan had not changed much.

Lu Yan was quite curious about her past, so he quietly connected to the consciousness of some little monsters and asked them about the woman's situation. The monsters talked about all kinds of stories.

Putting aside the possible rumors, before her death, she should have been the legal wife of an official of the former dynasty. The official was deeply in love with her at first, but as time passed, he gradually turned his attention to other concubines.

Gradually, the officials neglected the umbrella girl in all aspects, both physically and mentally. Later, due to various accidents and "harem" struggles, the umbrella girl died with resentment and finally turned into a fierce ghost.

It's quite miserable, Lu Yan touched his face, fortunately his strength can still be improved. This is the result of insufficient strength. It's true that you can't do porcelain work without the right skills.

Ning Zongyuan and Lu Yan in the dream handled it very well, or perhaps the feelings brought about by sharing life and death are more stable than the feelings brought about by the daily necessities of life. The former support each other, while the latter often have negative emotions.

"Well, it's a good thing I have a worldview based on supernatural powers. If I were to go to an urban worldview without any supernatural powers, and without a system to help me pick up girls, I might not be able to handle relationships with girls well."

As Lu Yan was thinking, the fast-moving picture suddenly paused, drawing his attention back to the scene, and he immediately showed an expression of watching a good show.

The scene returned to normal speed, and the two people were arguing about something, and Ning Zongyuan's condition did not look good.

"Ahem, I told you, Madam, there's no need to do this. I can ask my father to help me remove the poison when he comes back."

"But how long will it take for father to come back? Master, your illness can't be delayed any longer!"

Hu Hongniang tied up her hair and dressed like a woman, while Ning Zongyuan wore official uniform. Fast forward, it was obvious that they had fast forwarded to their married life.

At this moment, Ning Zongyuan's face was pale, with a hint of blue at the corners of his mouth. He was deeply poisoned. He had just experienced a fierce battle with the demons lurking in the city and was seriously injured. He was almost unable to recover.

He had no time to recover from his injuries. The doctors Hu Hongniang called all said they were powerless. Only one miracle doctor said there was a way -

In Ning Zongyuan's backyard, one of Hu Hongniang's sisters had a special physique that could direct all the poison to her. As for the consequence, it was naturally the death of the concubine.

Ning Zongyuan was determined not to do so after hearing this, but Hu Hongniang didn't care and tried to persuade him several times, which caused a slight crack in their relationship.

As time passed, the doctor, or the woman holding the umbrella, said that it was not necessary to induce the poison, and the man's heart could be used as a medicine inducer.

The red fox showed her cold side. She had never opened up to the so-called "sisters". In her opinion, those in the backyard were just "obelisks" that she could not afford to offend.

Since the vase can cure diseases, what does it matter if it is smashed?

When she learned that she only needed to dig out the heart, she immediately set her sights on the concubine, showing her devilish side and began to take action against the medicine. However, she was discovered by Ning Zongyuan and her actions were completely thwarted.

"There's an imbalance between status and strength."

Lu Yan sighed and shivered. He had been to many brothels and subconsciously recalled the expressions of Lamia and Daisy.

These two sisters are fine, but I don't know the personalities of the other two. If that day ever comes, will I...

"No, no, Lu Yan and I are just a simple master-servant relationship. It hasn't reached that level yet. Besides, I'm quite strong. When I become stronger, I will definitely be able to easily overpower them!"

She shook her head, feeling a strong sense of crisis. She made up her mind to practice hard and take her life into her own hands.

At the end of the incident, the concubine died due to the deliberate manipulation of the umbrella woman.

Ning Zongyuan was filled with sadness and had no intention of using the medicine. In the end, he was not poisoned to death, but lived to see his father arrive.

But he died in the end, committing suicide. Before his death, he wrote letters to Hu Hongniang and his many wives and concubines.

He said that everything was his fault and that as a husband he had failed to guide his wife well. His integrity and pride remained unchanged and he remained consistent inside and out.

Hu Hongniang was heartbroken. After completing what Ning Zongyuan had instructed her to do, she decided to die. After both of them died, the entire dream collapsed and then was recast into another dream.

"Love tribulation, right?"

Lu Yan muttered that the tragic ending was essentially caused by the umbrella-wielding ghost deliberately intensifying the conflict, and Ning Zongyuan's lack of strength was also a reason.

The scholar and the fox were able to maintain their original mentality and nature and survive the dream. Whether it was worth it or not depends on what they think after they come out.

After about five or six dreams, the woman holding the umbrella, her soul somewhat fading, stared at the oil-paper umbrella, muttering "Are he and I wrong?" The obsession that kept her alive seemed to be dissipating.

Ning Zongyuan did not change his nature. In his heart, the order of importance was humanity, Hu Hongniang and people close to him, and finally himself. This was the case in every dream.

He faced the trolley problem several times, and his final choice was always to make no choice, to channel all his righteous energy into launching a suicide attack, and to choose to do his best to save everyone.
