"I'm going to die!"

During dinner tonight, Chu Shan put down his chopsticks and solemnly announced this important matter to his wife.

"I was chosen by the forbidden game," Chu Shan said.

His wife's name is Feng Wan. He met her on a dark, rainy night when he was a freshman in college.

She was wearing a loose white dress, very plain. Her hair was loose, and her eyes were dark and lifeless.

She stood alone by the bridge, soaked in the rain. Chu Shan, fearing she might do something rash, risked his life to save her.

He later learned that she was just standing by the bridge to enjoy the scenery... it was all a misunderstanding.

Oops.

That said, what scenery is there to see on a rainy day?

She clearly wanted to jump into the river, Chu Shan thought, she must be too embarrassed to admit it. He didn't call her out on it.

This was a brief encounter.

Later, during his junior year of college, he ran into her again one bright spring morning. And then they fell in love.

Right after graduating from university, the two registered their marriage and held their wedding in their hometown. Feng Wan was very understanding; knowing that he had just graduated and hadn't started working yet, she didn't even ask him for a dowry.

He only said he would buy her the gold and diamond ring when he made money in the future.

His parents were getting old, and Feng Wan couldn't bear to let them spend money just to save face.

If you don't have the money... you don't have to buy it!

Those things weren't really necessary. As long as she gets the person, that's enough.

So the gold earrings she's wearing now were a replacement from Chu Shan later when he saved up some money. They shimmered on her ears, like two leaves, and looked very pretty.

A very virtuous wife.

A very considerate wife.

Married for two years, their relationship has always been good. Feng Wan always goes along with him, washing his clothes when it's hot and making him late-night snacks when he gets off work late. She has never complained.

Oh, and it's worth mentioning.

His wife came from a poor family. It was said to be some unknown small mountain village, and her parents had died early. She had no vague memories of her parents.

I've long since stopped contacting other relatives and friends.

So before she met him, she had always been all alone.

Chu Shan always felt sorry for her because of this, and also felt that she had wronged her.

I've always wanted to do my best to give her the best.

Feng Wan came from a small town and usually stayed at home, so she didn't have much exposure to the world.

Fearing his wife wouldn't know what forbidden games were, Chu Shan quickly explained the origins of forbidden games to her again.

There's nothing shameful about not knowing. It's like how, even in modern society, many people still don't know how to take a train or subway.

This is all normal.

"What?" Feng Wan was startled. In an instant, his wife, who looked like a little rabbit, was startled. Her eyes reddened, as if they were filled with tears, and she looked at him with fear and apprehension.

Centuries ago, forbidden games descended upon major cities around the world.

The game randomly selects lucky viewers to participate in so-called dungeon challenges, which may involve adventure or puzzle-solving.

But no matter how the game genre changes, there is only one ultimate principle.

—To live.

People who die in the game will also die in the real world.

Only by finding the key to clear the level can you survive and exit the dungeon.

The game initially caused considerable panic, but the government quickly brought it under control. They discovered that as long as enough people actively signed up to participate, the forbidden game would not randomly arrest people.

So the government quickly established the "Taboo Department" to study the rules of forbidden games and figure out the underlying principles.

Then select capable individuals, train and hone them, and minimize the mortality rate of forbidden games as much as possible.

China has 1.4 billion people, and many extraordinary people and people of lofty ideals have emerged.

Therefore, before the official establishment of the "Forbidden Department," many people in the community had already formed various associations and groups, and many expert players had posted game guides on forums.

Later, after the government established the corresponding legal provisions, the registration of the social organization was completed and passed.

In other words, they are government-recognized non-staff personnel.

It is a taboo, but also an opportunity and a challenge.

Do you know how much reward people get from playing forbidden games? Many ambitious people are just waiting for this chance to turn their lives around.

However, the number of places is limited.

The government gets involved in one phase, and then the public gets involved in another.

By the time it came to ordinary people, there were no spots left.

As we all know, ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to seize these opportunities.

Most people just live their lives in mediocrity, and no one wants to gamble their life on a perilous path. Participating in normal social work is perfectly fine.

What? You want to participate? Then take the exam first.

First the national civil service exam, then the provincial exams. Exams continue uninterrupted, every month, every day.

I will be able to pass the exam someday.

But only a minority passed the test. But that's good too, at least the lives of ordinary people are now protected.

Chu Shan didn't have any grand ambitions; he just wanted to live a peaceful and quiet life.

So, over time, forbidden games faded from their view. So long that they became history, written in his high school history textbook.

Everyone continues their normal lives, studying and going to work as usual.

Some things are none of their business, given their monthly salary of 3,500 yuan.

"Our university even has elective courses on forbidden games," Chu Shan said to Feng Wan with a smile, as if to ease the tension.

But all the theoretical knowledge they learned in university was completely useless. Things like definitions and principles.

When Chu Shan came out of the classroom after class, he jokingly said to his roommate:

"If I actually went to Forbidden Game, could I just recite a whole world-building and methodology to the death on the spot?"

These universities are all like that; they like to offer boring, easy courses.

The teachers who give them career planning lessons may not have been job seekers themselves, and similarly, the teachers who give them forbidden courses may not have been involved in forbidden games themselves.

...He was still in the mood to laugh, but Feng Wan couldn't laugh at all.

She also put down her chopsticks; at this point, no one could eat anymore.

She didn't say a word, just pouted and stared at her husband with a bitter expression. How could this be? She wasn't surprised, just a little bewildered.

Who did this?! Who lured her husband back to his hometown?

angry!

Don't let her find out!

She didn't even tell him beforehand, making her husband so scared!

Chu Shan didn't intend to tell his parents about being involved in the forbidden game. But since his wife knew him inside and out, he had to tell Feng Wan.

The two were husband and wife, and they trusted each other, so they naturally supported each other through thick and thin.

What if he doesn't come back...

He was truly prepared not to come back, and he didn't think the chances of an ordinary person surviving in a forbidden game were very high.

If he truly possessed such intelligence, he wouldn't have graduated from an ordinary university.

Chu Shan always thought that dangerous and terrifying things were far away from him, and that if the sky fell, there would be tall people to hold it up.

[Forbidden Game] has suddenly started randomly grabbing ordinary people; there must be something wrong with the game itself.

He had thought that he and Feng Wan could live a peaceful and uneventful life behind closed doors.

But fate found him so quickly.
