Chapter 65: The Ghost Bride
Qingming solar term, cold and warm convergence, the weather is capricious, a spring cold freezes the newborn chicks in the chicken nest and retracts them under the wings of the hen.
Taking advantage of this cold night, Song Shi brought a jar of wine to have a few drinks with Shen Huan. Because it was the age of being lively, after a few drinks, Song Shi couldn't help but feel a little bored in the face of Shen Huan and Ye Feixue, the two stuffy gourds, so he proposed to play some tricks to drink.
Unable to withstand his entanglement, Shen Huan thought for a long time and proposed, "Why don't we tell ghost stories!" Just after Qingming, there is also an atmosphere! And the wine is so bold that you won't be scared even if you listen to it! But let's talk about it first, if anyone is still scared, then they must be punished for drinking! ”
As soon as he heard that it was a ghost story, Song Shi's interest suddenly became much less, and he shouted: "Ghost story? What's so good about that? It's all old-fashioned, change it! ”
Shen Huan smiled and said, "I promise you haven't heard this ghost story!" And definitely with the drink! ”
Song Shi took a peanut and threw it into his mouth, "Okay! Then you just say it."
"Have you ever heard of the ghost bride?"
"Ghost bride?"
Shen Huan continued: "Legend has it that there was a beautiful woman and a talented scholar who fell in love, and in order to give his beloved woman a happy life, the scholar studied hard day and night, planning to enter Beijing to gain fame. Before leaving, the scholar told the woman that he would come back to marry her when he won the top prize! After the scholar left, the woman began to sew the wedding dress for herself with good expectations, but the woman waited and waited, for a year, two years, three years...... The scholar just didn't come back, and the woman couldn't hold back the thoughts in her heart anymore and decided to go to the scholar. However, when she went to the capital to find the scholar, she found that the scholar had already won the top prize! And married the daughter of a powerful courtier! The woman went to ask why the scholar had abandoned her, but she was beaten mercilessly by the scholar and driven out! On the night of the Qingming Festival, the woman wore a red wedding dress sewn by herself and hanged herself from a tree...... At the moment when she was hanging, a gust of wind suddenly blew! Blowing her red hijab off...... The next day, the scholar learned that the woman had hanged herself, but he was indifferent and continued to live a life of spending and drinking. A few years later, that scholar finally became a high-ranking official with the strength of his father-in-law! And the power in the court is getting bigger and bigger! Finally, one day, he finally didn't have to send people under the fence anymore, and he no longer had to put up with his ugly and arrogant wife! On the day of his reign, he immediately divorced his wife! And married a woman like a flower! However, on the night of marriage, when he and his new wife drank the wine and were about to enter the cave room, the bride suddenly found that the red hijab that had been placed aside was missing! The two of them couldn't find it! At this time, the bride and groom suddenly discovered that a beautiful woman in a red wedding dress appeared in the mirror, and this beauty was the same woman who died many years ago! With a red hijab in her hand, she slowly crawled out of the mirror and smiled at them and said, "Are you looking for this?" ”
Shen Huan said as he handed the red silk that had been prepared in his hand to Song Shi in a timely manner, and the sudden appearance of red silk startled Song Shi! The whole person rolled directly under the table......
Shen Huan laughed at first sight, this ghost story itself is not terrible, the terrible thing is that when people listen to ghost stories, their mental instincts will be concentrated, and at this time, a prop similar to or related to the ghost story itself suddenly appears in front of him, and people will instinctively think that this is such a thing! This is actually a kind of psychological suggestion, and when this psychological suggestion appears, it often startles people! But it will ease up after a while.
Song Shi sat on the ground and gasped for a few breaths, and sure enough, he quickly eased up, but he could feel his heart beating fast, and his mouth felt thirsty, so he drank several glasses of wine in a row.
"Haha! I'll tell this story under the bar! ”
"I'll fuck your uncle! Is there such a whole person as you? Song Shi complained.
"Haha, don't you want to drink!"
“……”
After Song Shi went back, Shen Huan thought that this matter was over, but what he didn't expect was that Song Shi actually remembered this ghost story! Told almost everyone in the village about it! One day, Li Lao Liu was working at the time, and he was so frightened that he even threw away the freshly brewed wine in his hand! Aunt Li was so angry with this kid that she took her crutches and pulled Song Shi out of the winery! This continued until Song Shi himself found it boring......
Another month has passed, in the fourth month of the lunar calendar, it is already the busy farming season, rape and wheat have to be harvested, and then the seeds of rice are sown, waiting for the autumn harvest. At this time, it is also a good time for families to marry. Today, the Gu family's family in the city is particularly festive, and today is the day when Miss Gu comes out of the cabinet, but because the Gu family is well-off, she recruited an aunt as a son-in-law.
Night gradually fell, the red lantern was illuminated by the candle flame, the Gu Mansion was full of joy, persuaded to drink and fight, singing and laughing, the groom was drunk by a few fox friends and dogs, so he let him go and let him into the cave room.
Under the red hijab, Miss Gu waited for her husband with a shyness on her face, and when she heard the sound of opening the door, her chest was like a deer.
Lifting the red hijab, the groom looked at the beautiful lady, and the young lady of the Gu family was also very satisfied with the groom's handsome appearance. After drinking the wine, the two stripped off their clothes and turned the phoenix upside down, and did not rest until midnight......
In the middle of the night, the groom felt that there was water dripping on his lips and licked it unconsciously, but as the drops fell one after another, the groom suddenly understood that it was the bride who was playing tricks on himself.
"Madam, don't make trouble, it's not dawn yet!"
The bridegroom, when he opened his sleepy eyes, found the bride again dressed in her wedding dress and standing in front of him.
"Madam, what are you ......doing," the groom was halfway through his words, and suddenly felt that the bride was not standing in front of him at all! It's floating in front of you!
Drops of blood dripped from the hem of his skirt and fell on himself, and what he thought was a drop of water just now was actually dripping blood!
"Ah!!!!h Screams echoed in the night sky......
……
Early in the morning, Song Shi followed Lao Wuyi and his gang into the city to catch the market, this is the last assembly before the mangzhong, take out the extra rice noodles at home last year and sell them, and after a while, these will become Chen Mi Chen noodles, and they will not be sold at a price, so the village has always attached great importance to such an assembly.
After walking not far, Song Shi saw a group of people surrounded in the distance, as if something had happened......
Song Shi likes to watch the excitement the most, put down the flat shoulder and said to the fifth brother: "Fifth brother, I'll go over and take a look!" I'll be back soon! ”
"Hey! Ay! You're back! Lao Wu shouted a few times, but failed to stop him.
Squeezed through the crowd, Song Shi found that he had been arrested and almost surrounded inside, and Xing Zhutou was directing a few newcomers to catch up there.
Forcibly squeezing out of the crowd and walking inside, Song Shi shouted to Xing Zhutou: "Brother Zhutou, what are you doing here?"
Xing Zhutou turned his head to see that it was Song Shi's kid, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be your kid, how are you lately?"
"Let's get by!"
Song Shi stepped forward and asked softly, "What's wrong?" It can't be another dead man, right? ”
Xing Zhutou looked at no one on the left and right, and did not hide it, and whispered to him: "That's right! Miss Gu went out of the pavilion last night, but she didn't expect to be killed in the cave room in the middle of the night! The county magistrate is inspecting the scene inside! But I estimate that eighty percent of it is no play, and if you can't get it right, you have to ask Shen Gongzi to come out! ”
"I'll take a look!"
After Song Shi heard what he said, his curiosity was immediately aroused! Raise your legs and walk inside! Xing Zhutou didn't stop him, after all, he was also an acquaintance, let's see how it can be dropped!
Walking into the scene of the crime, Song Shi saw at a glance a woman wearing a red wedding dress and a big red hijab being hung on the bed! Seeing that the deceased's feet were still dangling in mid-air, Song Shi's psychology suddenly sudden! I don't know why, he thought of that ghost story!
"It can't be a ghost bride......
"What the hell bride?"
Song Shi's unintentional sentence was heard by Liu Zhixian, and when he looked back, it was actually Song Shi! Suddenly he was angry, "How did you get in?" I don't know if you can't just enter the scene of the crime? ”
After settling down, Song Shi looked at the official frame set up by Liu Zhixian, and couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, "I said Lao Liu, let's have a lot of trouble together, right?" Can you stop putting on your official show? Who to scare? ”
"Hey! You kid hasn't seen the market for a few days! How dare you call me Lao Liu? It's against you! ”
"Just tell you how to drop! Lao Liu! Lao Liu! ”
"Gotta get it! If you like to scream, just call it! Don't get in my way! If you kid is idle and bored, go to the county government to sit for a meeting, and when I finish dealing with it here, let's have a drink. ”
Liu Zhixian didn't get angry, and after getting along a few times, he also knew Song Shi's temper, just a child who didn't grow up, plus the last time he died together, the relationship between the two of them also broke through the relationship between officials and the people, and they became New Year's friends who talked about everything.
Hearing that Liu Zhixian was going to invite himself to drink, Song Shi suddenly blossomed with joy, "Thank you, Uncle Liu!" Then I'll go first. ”
Just as Song Shi was about to turn around and walk out, Liu Zhixian suddenly remembered what Song Shi had just said, "You kid, wait, what kind of ghost bride did you just say?" ”
Before Liu Zhixian's words fell, a gust of wind blew in from outside the door...... The big red hijab on the corpse was blown off the ground by the wind, and the two officials who were in charge of unloading the corpse subconsciously glanced up, but it was this glance that frightened the two of them so much that the three souls flew out of one and a half souls! Subconsciously threw his hands and slammed the body on the bed......
