Chapter 1: The Scarlet Wedding

Next Chapter

On the ninth day of November in the year of Gengyin, it is advisable to make alliances, take pictures, sacrifice, pray for blessings, and build. Do not be a stove and get married.

The sound of blowing and playing resounded in the small village, and the welcoming team composed of more than a dozen people attracted the onlookers of all ages and children in the village.

"Whose family is this?"

"Flower Family!"

"Huh? Didn't the Hua family just say kiss to someone three days ago, I haven't seen this bride price, why did they come to the door to greet them? ”

"I'm confused, too!"

"Tsk, that girl from the Hua family is so smart, she won't be unable to get married!"

The villagers chattered and followed the greeting procession to the small courtyard of the farmhouse in the far corner of the cottage.

The courtyard gate of the farmhouse is pasted with a big happy word, two big red lanterns are also hung on the lintel, and a string of firecrackers is supported on the corner eaves waiting to announce the arrival of joy.

In the hall of the courtyard, Hua Rou was sleeping soundly on the wooden table in a red wedding dress, and the sound of blowing and beating music wafted in to wake her up.

Hua Rou woke up frowning, only to feel that her neck was very sore, and she yawned and opened her eyes while rubbing her neck.

"Mother!"

Hua Rou's languid posture suddenly stiffened, and she exclaimed uneasily because her mother had fallen to the ground.

"Mother!" Hua Rou rushed straight to her mother's side and helped her up: "Mother! What happened to you? Wake up, mother! Dad, my mother fainted! ”

But the mother did not react, her face was pale and bloodless, her hands and feet were even more cold and weak, and even the wings of her nose did not tremble......

The uneasiness in her heart was rapidly amplifying, and Hua Rou trembled and handed her fingers to her mother's mouth and nose.

A few seconds later, her tears poured out uncontrollably, and she shouted in horror and helplessness: "Daddy! Father! Come on, Dad, mother...... ......"

However, she still didn't hear her father's response.

Hua Rou turned her head uneasily and glanced out of the hall......

Why doesn't Daddy respond? Every time there is something wrong with my mother, isn't my father the first to respond and rush to my mother's side?

Hua Rou panicked, she quickly put down her mother's body and stumbled out. The moment she stepped out of the hall, the sun was dazzling......

She saw her father, along with the four relatives who had come to the wedding in the morning, all of them lying on the ground.

In an instant, Hua Rou seemed to have been drained of strength, her legs were weak, and she fell to the ground.

"Nope! No, it won't! No, it won't! She murmured, her heart pounding, her teeth and claws fluttering in panic and black crush at her......

Hua Rou got up and staggered to her father's side, and she saw that his father looked peaceful as if he were asleep.

"Daddy!" Hua Rou pounced on her father and shook vigorously: "Dad! ”

But no matter how she shook or shouted, she didn't get the slightest response......

Once again, she tried to breathe, and the dead silence made her heart feel like a cold abyss.

"How so? How could it be ......" She turned her head to look at her relatives, and reluctantly stepped forward to test their snorts one by one.

But as a result, without exception.

The brutal silence is unabashedly proof of loss.

"Bang bang bang" The door of the courtyard was knocked, and the voice of the ceremonial officer was joyful: "Open the door to welcome your relatives!" ”

Hua Rou turned a deaf ear, and at this moment, this sudden loss filled her whole head with fear and doubt.

Hua Rou muttered, "Why is this happening?" Why...... Obviously I was good before......"

Today is a day of great joy for her!

Although this marriage came suddenly and strongly, although she was a little reluctant, although her mother refused to explain too much, she should not have lost her mother, father, and relatives on such a day...... Lost a home!

"Bang bang!"

"Open the door!"

"Hey! It's open! ”

There was a knock on the door of the courtyard, and no one answered, turning the joy of greeting into an inexplicable uneasiness.

However, no matter how much I knocked, the door was tightly closed, and there was no answer from the courtyard.

Finally, this unusualness made the greeting team uncontrollably slammed the door open.

The moment the ceremonial officer rushed in with a group of curious villagers, they were all stupid.

The man who fell to the ground, the sluggish bride, the dead air.

"Oh no! Dead man! After a scream, the scene suddenly became chaotic, and the bold villagers rushed to the corpse, and the timid villagers hid in the door and stretched out their heads to look.

Hua Rou stood in place, so lost that she was as motionless as an uncontrolled puppet.

The ceremonial officer walked up to Hua Rou in disbelief: "What's the matter?" What happened? ...... they are? ”

Hua Rou's lips moved, and tears dripped down: "I ......"

She had just said a word, and the world in front of her shook......

Seeing Hua Rou fall to one side, the ceremonial officer helped her: "Be careful!" ”

Hua Rou burst into tears and was weak: "I don't know...... Me, I'm waking up like this......"

She also wanted to know what the hell was going on? Why did she fall asleep inexplicably? Why did she open her eyes again, it was such a terrible thing.

The ceremonial officer frowned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at the two people behind him: Fourth, fifth, go and take a look!

The two entourages behind him immediately went to observe the corpse, and the ceremonial officer waved to the Xi Po in the greeting procession: What are you doing in a daze! Come and take care of her!

Xi Po pouted and came to Hua Rou's side, and with great disgust, she stretched out a hand to help her sit on the stone bench in the courtyard, and muttered in a low voice with a frustrated face: "It's really unlucky, how can you do this in a dignified way!" How will I do the work after this! ”

Unlucky...... Good and decent......

Hua Rou's fingers trembled, and her eyes turned to the corpses of her father and relatives, her eyes suspicious.

Oh, yes! How could such a thing happen in a good way? How did Daddy and Mom die?

Hua Rou immediately got up and wanted to go to the corpse of her parents, but as soon as she stood up, she was pressed back by Xi Po: "Oops! Sit well and don't move! And lo and behold! The blood is all over me! ”

Blood?

Hua Rou looked down at herself in surprise, only to find that the sleeves of her wedding dress were stained with some blood at some point.

Hua Rou was confused, and subconsciously looked at the ceremonial officer who helped him just now, and sure enough, his sleeves were also a little stained.

This blood ...... Where did it come from?

Just as Hua Rou was thinking about the answer, the ceremonial officer had already come to the fourth and fifth children, and asked with concern: "What? See what? ”

The fourth child shook his head in embarrassment, but the fifth child took out the silver hairpin on his head and walked towards Hua Rou's father's corpse.

The ceremonial officer said unhappily: "What do you mean by shaking your head?" Don't have a clue? ”

The fourth shrugged and replied: "All of them have no external injuries, and their hair, skin, lips and teeth don't seem to have any signs of poisoning, the only thing that can be regarded as a wound is that there is a small cut on the index finger of Huajia Shi's left hand, but it is only an inch long, do you think this can be regarded as a clue?" ”

The ceremonial officer was surprised: "Really? That ......"

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in his heart, which made the ceremonial officer speechless, and he grabbed his heart in great pain, and wanted to speak, but only made a "hiss" sound and collapsed to the ground.

Seeing this, the fourth brother immediately shouted: "Third brother! Third brother! ”

This sudden situation surprised everyone, and the fifth child who had just put the silver hairpin in the mouth of Daddy Hua didn't bother to take out the silver hairpin, and immediately ran to the ceremonial officer.

Seeing the sudden change, Hua Rou was stunned, but at this moment, Xi Po beside her actually raised her hand to cover her chest, and then planted forward with a muffled snort.

Hua Rou hugged her: "Auntie! ”

Lao Wu, who had just run to the side of the ceremonial officer, heard the sound and ran towards Hua Rou again.

Hua Rou hugged Xi Po, her voice trembling: "Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Hey, wake up! Wake up......"

The fifth child almost ripped off Hua Rou and quickly checked Xi Po's situation.

The fourth brother shouted at the top of his voice: "The fifth, the third brother, he has no external injuries, let alone any appearance, but he ...... He's out of gas! ”

Lao Wu rolled his eyes at Xi Po, and his face was solemn: "It's the same on my side, and her hands are also covering her chest!" It's like heart palpitations! ”

Hold your chest! Palpitation!

Hua Rou's eyes suddenly widened!
