Chapter 40: The Affair of Marrying

After another morning's walk, I actually regretted choosing the trail.

The path I chose was right apart from the road, and the vast woods led directly into the mountain, and I could see the people again by following the mountain road over the mountain.

Fortunately, there are some naturally flowing streams in the mountains, which solves the problem of drinking water.

Due to Zhao Gan's injury, we had to cross the hill and enter a village directly.

When I first arrived in the village, I happened to meet a happy event.

Seeing us walk into the village, the bride's welcoming procession at the entrance of the village had to pull us together to be lively, and I took 200 yuan of money, which was the meal money for a banquet between the two of us, and then went to a courtyard to wait for the banquet.

I also participated in banquets when I was in the village, and once a family held a banquet, it would often alarm most of the village, and a banquet would be held in each household to entertain guests.

Zhao Qian was very interested in looking east and west.

I laughed and said, "What's the matter, you want to marry a daughter-in-law?"

Zhao Qian shook his head: "Something is wrong, but I can't tell where it is." ”

Zhao Gan's words made my heart rise immediately.

Although he is young, he has seen a lot of the world when he travels north and south, and if he feels that something is wrong, there must be something wrong.

I couldn't help but be vigilant too.

I asked Zhao Qian to sit here and rest first, planning to go out and have a look.

I had just gone out when I met the team slowly walking back.

A big sedan chair swayed behind the pick-up team, and the suona next to the sedan chair blew loudly.

I looked at it and didn't feel anything wrong.

I touched the locust nail in my hand, but there was still no movement.

Soon I felt that something was wrong, and there was no sound of firecrackers when I got married. In addition to the sound of suona and the cheering of a group of people, the only thing missing is the sound of firecrackers.

That's very wrong.

But I also have some careful thoughts in my heart, not every place gets married with firecrackers, and some places don't do it.

Firecrackers alone don't mean there's a problem.

When the sedan chair stopped at the door of the wedding, I realized that there seemed to be one less person here.

Missing the groom officer!

I asked a random child where the bridegroom was, and the child looked at me and said that the bridegroom would not be able to come for a while.

This makes me even more puzzled, how can there be a saying that the groom is late when getting married.

When the curtain of the sedan chair slowly opened, a middle-aged man slowly walked out of the doorway, and the words written on the red flower on his chest indicated that he was the father of the groom.

He walked to the sedan chair and slowly walked down with the bride in his arms.

That's not right, the bride can't touch the ground with her feet when she arrives here.

In particular, the bride's walking posture is a little stiff, and it can even be said to be a shaky feeling.

As I passed by, I asked about the smell of corpses.

As the bride swayed, I caught a glimpse of a pair of wide-eyed eyes through the gap in her hijab.

I stepped forward to grab her.

This bride is definitely not a good kind.

But the bridegroom's father was not pleased, and asked me what I was going to do.

I looked at the dissatisfied looks of all the people around me, and knew that I couldn't say it at this time, so I said that I wanted to see what the bride looked like, and I was happy.

It's also thanks to my young age, although they looked at me, they all treated me as a child, laughed and scolded me and walked in with the bride.

Everyone seemed to be very happy with the bride.

I frowned, there was definitely something wrong with this bride, and three words popped up in my head: "Beauty Corpse".

Grandpa told me a story about beautiful corpses, that is, in some remote mountain villages, there will be corpses crawling out of the grave, all of them are female corpses, the kind of female corpses that love beauty very much, in order to ensure that the corpse does not decay, they will seduce men to marry, and take the opportunity to absorb the vitality of people.

When they leave, they go into the grave, and the family of the married family will not survive.

This can't be done, since I've encountered it, where can I acquiesce to the reason of this beautiful corpse's nonsense.

I wanted to go in with me, but I was kicked out by the family, saying that it was not an auspicious time and that it was not appropriate to go to see the bride.

I can't directly say the identity of this bride, the beauty corpse is the best at demagoguery, and when the time comes, I may not only not be able to solve her, but will also become the target of public criticism.

I asked Ji Shi, and when I heard that it was night, I was even more convinced that this was a beautiful corpse.

In fact, what I want most now is to nail the locust wood nail to her for the final confirmation.

I hurriedly went back and told Zhao Qian the news.

Zhao Qian didn't have much reaction after hearing this, and pulled me around the fence of the backyard where the wedding was held.

Zhao Qian leaned on the wall and listened for a while, and told me that there were very few people in it now.

Before I could understand what Zhao Gan meant, Zhao Qian swooped up the wall and climbed in.

Hearing a few muffled noises inside, Zhao Gan approached the wall and whispered, "It's solved! Come in!"

I was shocked and hurriedly climbed over the wall, just because I was worried that Zhao Qian would be heavy-handed, they were all ordinary villagers, and it would be difficult to deal with an accident.

After entering, I was relieved to see several women lying on the ground, who tried to breathe and still had their breath.

"Can you prepare me in advance next time!" I said angrily, lowering my voice.

Zhao Qian nodded, pushed the door and entered.

There was also a woman inside, and she was about to ask who Zhao Qian was when she heard a muffled sound.

I was so angry that I patted my head, and when I walked in, I saw that I had been knocked unconscious by the same means.

There was no time to accuse Zhao Gan of his actions, because the bride was sitting on the bed.

There was a lot of movement when we came in, and although the noise outside the door muffled the movement inside, the bride could certainly hear it.

At this point she sat quietly on the bed, motionless, as if it was none of her business that we could not get in.

"Who are you!" I asked.

After waiting for a while and not hearing back, I suddenly realized that it would be strange if this beautiful corpse could catch me.

Zhao Qian cautiously stepped forward, pulled out the Tang knife on his body, and gently stirred the hijab on the top of the bride's head.

"Be careful!" I said immediately, because if this person is a beautiful corpse, it is really strange that there is no abnormal movement.

I'm worried that she's waiting for her chance, and when the time comes, I'm afraid she'll burst into a thunderous blow.

The bride shook violently.

I felt out the copper nail and made a starting gesture, and as soon as Zhao Qiantang turned the knife, the hijab on her head immediately flew up.

The flying hijab split into two ends in the air and landed on either side of the bed.

The bride showed a beautiful face, and there was a small wound on her forehead, which was caused by Zhao Gan's Tang knife, and blood flowed down her forehead in an instant.

Zhao Qian didn't make a move, and took a few steps back from putting the knife into the sheath.

I slowly lowered my hand.

The beauty corpse does not bleed, there is blood flowing out of her head, naturally it is not a corpse, and there is a trace of blood floating in the air.

Her eyes widened at the sight of the two of us, just like I had seen before.

However, I did see a pair of big eyes before, but now my eyes were full of expectation.

But she doesn't seem to be able to move except for her eyes, and can only turn her eyes around desperately.

A line of tears streamed down her eyes.

Seeing this, I still don't understand what went wrong.

Hurry up and see her.

Sure enough, there was another small wound on her face, but it was covered by the fat powder on her face.

I touched it lightly, and it was hard.

I slowly pinched the thing, and when I slowly pulled it out, anger rose in my heart.

"What a thing!" I scolded.

Because it was a steel nail pierced through her left cheek, it pierced directly into the right cheek, and it is estimated that even her tongue was pierced in the position, no wonder she couldn't speak.

By the time I endured the heartache and pulled out the whole steel nail.

She was in pain and almost fainted, but she still held on to look at us.

She opened her mouth, and a jet-black stone fell out of her mouth, with a blood clot still sticking to it.

No wonder she was able to pierce her cheeks and tongue so precisely, and actually stuffed a stone to prevent the flesh on her face from twitching.

"Six..... five! Six...... Five!" she said with her mouth open and struggling.

I knew she was saving me, but my tongue had long since stopped listening, and it was barely enough to be able to say it.

"Don't talk! we'll save you!" I nodded at her.

I tried to pick her up, but found her sitting cross-legged on the bed like a stiff puppet.

"Do you still have steel nails on you?" I asked, confused.

She winked at me and was about to open her mouth when I covered it.

At this time, I saw that there were two steel nails stuck diagonally in the back of her neck, straight through the skin, and inserted into the muscles of her shoulders.

I touched it and found it very firm, and now I don't dare to touch it easily, I'm not a doctor, I really don't know what to do.

"I'm coming!" Zhao Qian came over, looked at the steel nail on the back of his neck, slapped his palm on her shoulders, and took the opportunity to hook the steel nail and pull it out.

Zhao Qian took out some medicinal powder from his arms and sprinkled it on the wound to stop the bleeding.

I know that Zhao Qian has been injured a lot since he was a child, and the so-called long-term illness has become a self-healing doctor, so it is still reassuring to hand it over to him.

But at this moment the gate of the courtyard was suddenly opened, and the groom's father was heard asking suspiciously what was going on here.

Then there was the sound of close footsteps, and the door to the house was kicked open.

"I need time! I'm going to help her remove the nails, or she won't be able to move. Zhao Qian turned his head to me and said.

I saw this girl leaning on Zhao Gan's arms with her head down, and the steel nails on the back of her neck were pulled out, and she obviously had no strength.

"Okay!" I nodded, and rushed to the door with the steel nail I had just pulled out.

Zhao Qian didn't say much, and directly tore the girl's clothes.

Before my father could stand firmly, I kicked him out and closed the door of the house.

There was a coffin at the door of the courtyard, and when the people around me saw me coming out of the house, the people lying on the ground and the father of the groom, who was screaming and screaming, suddenly understood something.

And the dark ones poured in.

I stood in the doorway, anger almost pouring out of my head.

"Who did that!" and finally the anger gathered into these three words, and I whispered them.
