Chapter 162: Concluded
The old-fashioned old man and the fat and thin young man sat on the stool next to them, and the old-fashioned old man was holding his arms and watching coldly.
On the opposite side is the old matchmaker negotiating with He Gang, Ning Yang can't hear what they said clearly, but judging from their body movements, it is not very smooth, He Gang is frowning, talking to the old matchmaker slightly quarrelsomely, it seems that it is difficult to agree to her request, and He Gang's mother-in-law next to her grabbed He Gang's hand and shook it, her face showed a little annoyance, it seemed that she complained that her husband did not agree to the old matchmaker's request, Ning Yang knew that what they were talking about might involve something, which was very important in He Gang's opinion, But his wife didn't care at all.
He Gang pulled his wife in the corner next to him, muttering, but although his wife showed a stunned expression, she was still a little annoyed He Gang, Wu Lao seemed to listen to it next to him, and hurriedly walked over and comforted a few words, He Gang seemed to nod reluctantly in agreement. When the old matchmaker heard this, she was immediately overjoyed, and said a few words in front of the old-fashioned old man, and the old-fashioned old man nodded coldly.
Although Ning Yang didn't know what they were discussing, it felt like a deal, and at this time, Wu Lao saw that the in-laws of both men and women had reached an agreement, and they also straightened out their robes and began to hold a secret marriage.
Wu Lao walked in front of the old-fashioned old man first, whispered a few words, he and the old matchmaker, the fat and thin young man walked out of the courtyard, and Wu Lao also greeted the colleagues next to him, and the suona drum music sounded one after another, and it seemed that some festive atmosphere could be seen. Then, the old matchmaker shouted outside the courtyard wall: "The bride has arrived!" β
Ning Yang saw the old matchmaker happily enter the courtyard in the crowd, and then, the fat man also walked in, but he was holding a posthumous photo in his hand, but he had already covered him with a red turban, and then, the thin man and the old-fashioned old man walked in, and the thin man also held some papier-mΓ’chΓ© dowry and other things in his hands, not a lot, it should be a symbol.
They walked from the crowd to the lobby, the surrounding villagers did not speak, after all, this is a dark marriage, there is no festive atmosphere at all, but more dignified, if it is not for the sound of suona drum music, I am afraid that more people will feel a sense of forest, among which the young people in their twenties and thirties are the most prominent, there is a trace of fear on their faces, and the older villagers seem to be more lively, it may be that He Gang was in the village in the past, and he killed his fellow villagers, how much there is a sense of retribution for laughing jokes.
When the fat man came to the door of the lobby with the posthumous photo, Wu Lao greeted him, and the old matchmaker next to him took the bride's posthumous photo and entered the lobby, and He Gang also held the groom's posthumous photo on the stage, and the old matchmaker almost entered the back door next to the lobby one after another, and then, Wu Lao and others also entered, and they and the villagers also followed closely into the fish.
Behind is a screen, behind the screen, there is a quadrangle yard, there are stone tables in the courtyard, rockeries, green bamboo, etc., the scenery is beautiful, it is worthy of being a big household in the village! However, Ning Yang knew that the He family was not prosperous now, except for He Gang and his wife, only his youngest son was left, because of the incident with He Wei, he had been sent out of the village and stayed at a relative's house in Xiaolong Town, and it seemed that he would wait for the secret marriage before making plans.
Around this quadrangle, there is also a circular corridor, He Gang held He Wei's posthumous photo, walked to a wing room in the corridor on the right, from the door can already see the lights bright, he walked in directly, the old matchmaker, Wu Lao and others also walked in, however, the team of suona drum music is playing and singing by the door, and they are also crowded into the door to watch the excitement.
Just Ningyang is in front, it is a good position, you can see the situation inside, this is a large wing room, there is a big bed on the right, there is an offering table on the bed, and there are apple incense candles on the table, He Wei's testament has been placed on the table, Wu Lao is holding a peach wood sword, doing it on the side, and then, shouting, the old matchmaker immediately held the bride's widow and placed it side by side next to the groom's widow, and then, took a red head rope handed over by Wu Lao, and made a set respectively, covering the groom's widow, and then set it to the bride.
This red-headed rope is tied to both men and women, which is to the effect that the old man of the moon pulls the red line, and it is also a ritual for the underworld to conclude a dark marriage.
However, when he was putting on the bride, the old matchmaker snorted, as if she was being electrified, and her hand retracted suddenly, Ning Yang hurriedly erected his fingers, secretly opened the eye of heaven, and saw that some yin qi seeped out of the bride's appearance, but there was no ghost of the bride and groom around, and they should all return to reincarnation.
Wu Lao hurriedly asked her, what's going on? The old matchmaker turned out to be full of strangeness, and looked at her fingers in wonder, Ning Yang knew that it should be the yin qi that just stimulated him, and he didn't make a ruthless move, but Wu Lao may have felt something wrong, so he waved the peachwood sword and pointed at the bride's posthumous appearance, and the yin qi on it really shrank back, and the old matchmaker also used the red head rope to put on the posthumous image again, and finally there was no weirdness, and her face also showed a hint of relaxation, thinking that it might be something a little nervous just now.
However, Ning Yang saw that it was all peach wood swords belonging to Yang, and there was not much yin energy on the remains, so he was forced to retreat by the peach wood sword, however, when the red head rope was put on the two relics and the contract of the underworld marriage was concluded, Ning Yang was very frightened, and the yin energy was permeated on the two relics, and it also permeated to each other along the red head rope. There is also a secret marriage, according to the rules of the Yin and Yang Secret Technique, there should be a Taoist priest in charge to conclude it, how can this matchmaker be allowed to do it? Does this Wu Lao not understand the regulations of the secret marriage, or is there a problem with himself?
At this time, the old matchmaker took the incense candle again, on the lamp oil next to it, lit, however, after taking it away, suddenly the incense candle went out, she seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then, to light, as a result, or extinguished, the heart seemed to be nervous, Wu Lao also saw that something was wrong, and saw the old matchmaker light it again, as a result, the incense candle was lit, but it was not inserted on the incense burner on the table, suddenly, the two sides touched each other and fell directly on the offering table, and the incense candle was extinguished again, and the old matchmaker was scared on the spot, and the incense candle in her hand fell directly, Fortunately, Wu Lao's eyes were quick, and he reached out and grabbed the two incense candles.
At the same time, the musicians outside also suddenly went out of tune, as if the evil ghost was screaming, sharp and poignant, and the villagers who were watching the excitement were so excited that they covered their ears, and many of them turned pale, and there was some commotion at the scene.
However, this Wu Lao really has some skills, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't panic, everyone, there must be demons and evil people who can't get used to this underworld wedding celebration and want to make trouble, Xiaogang, you burn some underworld coins in the brazier next to them, send them away, and it's fine!" β
He Gang hurriedly came over, knelt on the futon on the ground, burned the paper in the brazier, burned just a few sheets, and suddenly extinguished again, and those unburned dark papers floated up strangely, swirling in the air, Boss Wu shouted: "Stubborn!" βγ
