The subsequent plans unfolded smoothly, with the villagers never suspecting a thing. Aqing and the woman he "bought" officially got married, and he even gave her a nickname, "Ayue."
After the wedding, the two lived harmoniously. Although Ayue was a monster, she was unaware of it and thought she was still a horse.
Aqing had to gradually correct her behavior, help her adapt to human life, and teach her to speak.
After three years, as life gradually improved, Ayue became increasingly like a normal human woman, and Aqing couldn't be happier.
Until the Daoist appeared and his life was completely destroyed.
Aqing said painfully, "At the time, that wandering Daoist gave a warning, and I felt something was amiss, but I stubbornly denied it and forcibly drove him away."
"The next day, I took my wife to the county town to hide for a while. After staying a few days and seeing nothing happen, we dared to return."
