Resources are monopolized, what can I do about my unlimited access card?

Gu Ye and the other person arrived at the village chief's house together, and looked up at the lively banquet in front of them.

It turned out that the village chief's house was no less impressive than Wang Fugui's; both were elegant courtyard houses, and the banquet was held at the entrance of the courtyard house.

A huge, spacious courtyard, large enough to accommodate everyone in the village.

The courtyard was filled with tables, and the two walked to the door, preparing to go inside.

Two burly men suddenly blocked their way, and Gu Ye looked up at them in confusion.

One of them placed a large red plate in front of Gu Ye, on which were some red envelopes. Behind the two burly men, they pushed around some red-wrapped gifts.

Seeing this, Gu Ye was speechless. So the burly man meant for them to give gifts.

"Let me do it!" Luo Yueyao stepped forward, took out a gold bar from somewhere, and placed it on the plate.

The burly man felt the plate in his hand suddenly become heavy. He turned his head and stared at it, instantly dumbfounded.

"This...this...this..."

Another burly man also saw the gold bars on the plate and immediately bent down at a ninety-degree angle. The burly man carrying the plate also reacted quickly and bent down to face Luo Yuerao.

The two men stepped aside to make way for them, saying, "Welcome, distinguished guests."

Luo Yuerao walked ahead with an arrogant expression, with Gu Ye following behind her.

At the same time, the burly man carrying the tray hurriedly called out, "One pound of gold bars, two people!"

Upon hearing this voice, all the villagers in the courtyard turned to look at Gu Ye and his companion. The village chief also jogged over to them.

The village chief beamed, "It's truly an honor for you two to attend my daughter's wedding! Please, come inside!"

Although Niu Dadan, as the village chief, had embezzled many things in the village, this was the first time he had ever seen such a large gold bar. The greed in his eyes for the gold bar was impossible to hide.

Niu Dadan led Gu Ye and the other person directly to the main table. He happily walked to the ceremonial platform and shouted loudly:

"Today is a wonderful day. Not only is it my daughter's wedding day, but we also have distinguished guests visiting. I, Niu Dadan, am very happy. Please eat and play as you please, just have a good time."

Before he finished speaking, countless eerie clapping sounds suddenly rang out in the courtyard.

Although Gu Ye was also clapping, his eyes were constantly scanning all the ghosts and people in the courtyard.

His expression hardened. Today was the village chief's big day, yet so many card dealers had come. It seemed that many of them knew the village chief had put up the sign at the village entrance and wanted to come to his house to find out more.

However, Gu Ye did not see Wang Fugui and his daughter among the villagers. As the only landlord in the village, the village chief could not possibly not invite him.

"Let the music continue, let the dance continue." Niu Dadan clapped his hands, and several maids walked out from behind the ceremonial platform and began to dance.

Gu Ye frowned. At this moment, Luo Yuerao leaned close to him and whispered:

"Gu Ye, this wedding is so strange, the bride and groom are nowhere to be seen."

Gu Ye glanced around and said, "I don't know. They haven't even paid respects to Heaven and Earth yet, so it's impossible for them to be sent directly to the bridal chamber."

"Let's go see if we can find any useful information."

While the villagers were having fun, Gu Ye quietly slipped away with Luo Yuerao.

The two sneaked into the courtyard and faintly heard the sound of weeping.

Seeing that there were no guards around, Gu Ye and the other person quietly walked to the source of the sound.

"It was a woman crying."

The two approached the door and could faintly hear two people talking inside.

"Miss, don't be upset. Today is your big day, you should be happy."

The woman, addressed as "Miss" by the maid, said in a choked voice:

"How could I possibly be happy? My father is forcing me to marry someone I don't love and telling me to sever ties with my daughter. What kind of father is he?"

"I..." The maid dared not speak, for neither side was someone she could afford to offend.

"Xiao Cui, wait a moment. If that Mu Qing comes to reinforce the barrier, sneak out and tell my husband not to come to save me. He can't beat Mu Qing. Tell him to take good care of our daughter. We'll be husband and wife in our next life." The woman's voice was resolute.

The maid Xiao Cui was startled upon hearing this, her voice trembling with tears: "Miss, you can't die! If you die, I won't be able to live either!"

The two people outside the door thought the maid was worried about the woman's life, but they didn't expect that she was worried about her own life. After the woman died, her own life would also be in danger.

At this moment, the maid said again, "Miss, I can't stop Young Master Mu Qing either. He's the one who can control the sign at the village entrance."

Hearing such important information, Gu Ye and the other person immediately focused on listening.
