Weird Calendar

Chapter 1 The third day of April·Recruitment

The third day of April is the fourth day of the fourth month of Dingsi. Suitable for haircut, decoration, bathing and opening a business.

Avoid getting married.

"Whether she is rich or poor, in good health or unwell, are you willing to be with her forever?"

In the Xishan Cathedral on the outskirts of Linxiang City, the priest who was the witness spoke a little hastily and the smile on his face was a little uncomfortable.

The bride's hair is tied into an elegant bun with exquisite hair accessories, her skin is as white and translucent as mutton-fat jade, and her wedding dress is like a blooming water lily.

Her eyes moved, waiting for Qin Ze's answer.

Qin Ze's lips curved into a smile, and he was about to say "I do" subconsciously.

But as the words came to his lips, a chill ran down his spine.

"Don't answer, don't speak, don't make a sound. Leave the church immediately!"

The warning in his mind made Qin Ze startled, and he suddenly woke up. His pupils dilated slightly and his lips tightened.

The bride held Qin Ze's hands:

"My dear, what's wrong with you? Are you nervous? Are you... unwilling to marry me?"

The priest gave an urging cough.

All the guests in the audience were muttering quietly, their eyes a little anxious, and their breathing gradually became faster.

Qin Ze didn't respond. He looked at his bride, Qiao Wei, seriously.

Judging from this impeccable appearance, which makes people unable to resist skipping the wedding process and going directly to the bridal chamber, this is indeed Qiao Wei.

In a decadent and boring life, Qiao Wei is the miracle in his life, always bringing new and exciting experiences.

But now, looking at the strange and wriggling shadows of the people around him in the corner of his eye, the situation was obviously beyond the scope of excitement.

The frequency of the shadow's squirming became more and more rapid, as if some kind of manic desire was released.

The priest's expression also changed from unnatural to ferocious in an instant:

"No matter what...you are willing to be with her...forever!"

…

…

The third day of April, 3:25 pm. On the outskirts of Linxiang, Xishan Cathedral.

"No, the whole hall of guests, more than a hundred people in total, saw this scene. The groom and the bride disappeared directly on the spot."

The man in a brown suit is 1.9 meters tall.

Next to him was a thin boy wearing white short-sleeved jeans.

The church on the outskirts of Linxiang has been sealed off. Not long ago, a rare "disappearance" occurred in this place where weddings were held.

The scene was so bizarre that the police easily thought it was a strange incident.

Leave professional matters to professionals.

So there are only two people in the huge "crime scene" right now.

"Everyone smelled the nauseating smell of blood and described seeing a blood-red light."

"Preliminary judgment is that one of the groom and the bride was selected by the calendar and committed a taboo."

"The key word for taboo is most likely marriage, and the level of danger for taboo is the highest level of 'recruitment'."

"Oh, by the way, the groom's name is Qin Ze and the bride's name is Qiao Wei. Neither of them are locals."

The young man nodded slightly:

"Among Qin Ze or Qiao Wei, there must be someone who is very unlucky...or very qualified. What a pity."

There is indeed a saying in the industry that the more dangerous the situation is when a calendar holder first commits a taboo, the higher his qualifications will be.

The tall man will always remember that it was the seventh day of May when the calendar suddenly appeared at his house.

The Guichou day of the Wuwu month is suitable for opening a business, getting a haircut, burying someone, and paving roads.

Avoid entering the house. That is, moving into a new home.

On that day, he happened to move into his new home, and various accidents continued to happen along the way——

Neighbor Lao Wang had an affair with his mistress' wife and fell to death downstairs in the Xinjia community. A moving worker suddenly fell ill on the road. A delivery man stabbed an upstairs resident with a knife. The elevator in the community failed and fell rapidly. Bad weather...

It can be said that all the misfortunes piled up together.

But this is only the lowest level of "suffering".

The man was very lucky that he was not highly qualified and what he encountered that day was not the second level of "despair".

Although the higher the taboo level, the more generous the reward for survival, the prerequisite for receiving the reward is to be alive.

As for the "distortion", "advent", and "recruitment" that go up further, they are out of the way of obstacles at the level of reality. This situation is extremely rare.

The man's thoughts returned to the present:

"We arrived too late. There is no way to save this matter. We can only suppress the matter first."

It is indeed strange for a newlywed couple to mysteriously disappear in full view of the public.

It is not difficult to find a reason, or find a criminal gang to take the blame.

Whether it is a tall man or a thin boy, they all agree on one thing——

The groom Qin Ze and the bride Qiao Wei all died.

Although there are countless secret treasures in that world, ordinary people are recruited into that world full of weird rules, and the possibility of survival is zero.

But not long after the two walked out of the church, the young man suddenly received a phone call.

After hanging up the phone, there was silence for several seconds before he calmly said:

"We have to change our schedule, it's unbelievable...the groom is still alive!"

…

…

Qin Ze is indeed still alive.

The shadows of the "people" in the church are indescribable, and their outlines no longer resemble human beings.

The air was filled with the smell of blood, and the flesh and blood of each "person" was swelling, as if something was about to break out of the body, echoing the movement of the shadow.

Even the church itself began to thicken and soften like melted chocolate.

"Don't answer, don't speak, don't make a sound."

Qin Ze's intuition tells him that this is a rule. He is in an abnormal area and must find a way to escape.

He didn't know why he knew this rule. All he knows is that if he doesn't seek death, he won't die.

The moment he stepped out of the church, he heard a familiar voice:

"Dear, forgive me for not being able to answer your inner confusion. Please find the calendar in the bedroom. This is a curse and a miracle."

"We will meet again when you have mastered it."

After that, Qin Ze opened his eyes, as if breaking away from a nightmare.

What caught my eye was no longer the twisted church and monster, but the ceiling of the wedding bedroom.

On the bay window sill of the bedroom, he quickly saw the diary-sized, silver-white calendar.

This is an old almanac.

Just by looking at it, you can seem to feel the evilness of this thing.

There is no reason for it, and it makes people feel that it has some kind of magic power.

Qin Ze suppressed all his thoughts and opened the almanac. When he saw the first page, he was stunned.

"The third day of April is the fourth day of the fourth month of Dingsi. It is suitable for haircut, decoration, bathing and opening a business."

"Don't get married."

The first page of the almanac is not January 1st, but surprisingly it is today.

Seeing the last "no marriage", Qin Ze felt his scalp numb and his goosebumps rising suddenly.

Even if you are an atheist, you will choose a good day to get married due to customs or suggestions from relatives and friends.

"I remember clearly that the third day of April on the lunar calendar is the 21st of May on the solar calendar. The day I chose is an absolutely auspicious day."

Qin Ze immediately took out his mobile phone, first looked at the circle of friends, and then checked the almanac.

Sure enough, today on the phone is the third day of April, the twenty-first day of May in the Gregorian calendar——

Whether it is "appropriate" or "taboo", they are completely different from the description in this silver almanac.

Combined with the horrific experiences I encountered, combined with Qiao Wei’s last words...

Qin Ze realized a certain possibility:

"Generally speaking, the good and bad luck in the almanac is just a matter of joy. To put it nicely, it's called metaphysics, but to put it unfavorably, it's called superstition."

"But now it seems that this is a 'real' almanac. Will the taboos on it really affect reality?"

"Qiao Wei...what magic box have you opened?"

The newlywed wife disappears and disappears, deformed monsters, pervasive blood, strange rules...

The mysterious old almanac.

Everything that happens today is enough to drive a person crazy, and his understanding of the past world will be completely subverted.

Qin Ze is not crazy.

He just remained silent and kept replaying Qiao Wei's words in his mind.

"I can't see you until I completely master the calendar..."

After some time, Qin Ze suddenly stood up. It was as if he had entered some special state, and there was light in his eyes.

If Qin Ze's infatuation with Qiao Wei stems from Qiao Wei's mystery, then Qiao Wei's infatuation with Qin Ze stems from Qin Ze's "playfulness".

Experiencing strange fears, the sadness of losing his wife, and even all irrelevant emotions were temporarily suppressed when facing the puzzle.

Qin Ze showed an extremely focused expression:

"Decrypting the calendar and mastering the calendar should be the key."

"It can currently be assumed that all the weirdness I encountered today is related to the calendar."

"Assuming this is true, then the weird things I encountered on my wedding day were all because of the 'taboos'."

"Taboo represents hindrance, and taboo on marriage led to me participating in the marriage act and almost dying in a strange world. So what about Yi?"

The third day of April is the fourth day of the fourth month of Dingsi. Suitable for: haircut, decoration, bathing, opening a business.

Qin Ze looked at the private bathroom in the bedroom.

He was suddenly curious about what would happen if he took a bath today.
