The Red River Broken Temple is said to be hundreds of years old, and has been in tatters since I can remember because it has fallen into disrepair and no one has taken care of it.

If you want to talk about its origin, I don't know, I'm afraid even the village chief doesn't know.

I remember that the year before last, the village held a meeting, and the village chief Yu said that the broken temple would be demolished and rebuilt, and for this matter, he also went to the county to ask for money.

Later, for unknown reasons, the plan was shelved, and there has been no follow-up to this day.

I said I didn't know the origin of the ruined temple, my father smiled, and asked me if I knew why this place was called Honghe Village.

This question is simple, because the river is red, so it is called Honghe Village.

But why the river is red, I'm afraid no one can answer.

The Red River stretches for several kilometers, with Qinghe Village in the upper reaches and Xingken Village in the downstream, and the water is very clear when it flows through both places, but when we reach Honghe Village, the river water will turn red.

When I was a child, there were many experts and professors in the city, and the instruments were all over the Red River, tossing back and forth for more than a month, and I couldn't find out the reason.

Dad is talking nonsense, but he doesn't talk about the point.

I was so anxious that I couldn't help it, so I asked my dad what he wanted to say.

Dad glanced at his watch, said that the time had not yet come, asked me not to worry, and asked me if I had heard of the character of the general Xu Da.

Of course I know Xu Da, the number one general under Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.

Dad said that Xu Da chased and killed Zhang Shicheng's youngest son Zhang Lie, and chased all the way to the Red River, Zhang Lie was defeated with 10,000 remnants of the army, and there was nowhere to escape, so he had to surrender on his knees.

Just when Xu Da was about to surrender, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sent a secret order.

Chop the grass and eradicate the roots, leaving no one alive.

Xu Da went on a killing spree, and 10,000 lives were killed.

Zhang Lie died the worst, and ten thousand arrows pierced his heart.

Before he died, he jumped into the Red River and cast a poisonous curse to make Lao Zhu's world never peaceful.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, strange things began to occur in Honghe Village and the nearby villages.

Cats and dogs go berserk, chickens and ducks die.

The water of the Red River turned red overnight, and the carcasses of fish and shrimp floated all over the river.

It didn't take long for the villagers to begin to suffer, killing and wounding dozens of people in just a few days.

The national teacher Liu Bowen personally went out of the mountain and found out that it was Zhang Lie and the tens of thousands of dead souls who were resentful of death who were haunting, who knew that with his supreme mana, he couldn't help these dead souls.

The stakes are very high, if Zhang Lie is allowed to make waves, the Ming Dynasty will really never be peaceful.

The only way is to activate the Demon Sealing Array and seal Zhang Lie and tens of millions of souls.

Since Zhang Lie was killed by Xu Da, only the Xu family can be sealed, but the sealing array is extremely domineering, and it needs to be sacrificed with a living life, and it is necessary to sacrifice a person.

Xu Da is too old to do the job.

It was his unmarried youngest daughter, Xu Miaoxian, who voluntarily stood up.

Xu Miaoxian is talented, learns the art of the Heavenly Master, and is the same as Liu Bowen, and is the best candidate to start the Demon Sealing Array.

The Red River Broken Temple was built for Xu Miaoxian, and it was also the eye of the Demon Sealing Array.

Back then, Xu Miaoxian volunteered to sacrifice and complete the Demon Sealing Array, Zhang Lie and tens of thousands of resentful souls were imprisoned at the bottom of the Red River forever, and they could not be reborn forever.

The people of Honghe Village are grateful to Xu Miaoxian, call the broken temple the Holy Maiden Temple, call Xu Miaoxian the Holy Maiden of the Red River, and go to worship her every New Year's Day.

A hundred years have passed in a hurry, things are wrong, and the Holy Maiden Temple has become a broken temple in the Red River, and no one cares about it.

Dad said so much in one breath, I was dumbfounded.

I thought that the Red River Broken Temple was a dilapidated temple in disrepair, but I didn't expect there to be such an allusion in it, and I don't know if it's true or not.

But what my dad said about having a nose and eyes probably wouldn't fool me.

"Dad, where did you hear these things, why have I never heard you say it?"

"It's not time yet, I'll tell you later, in fact, the woman in yellow you saw that day was not a living soul waiting to be reincarnated, I suspect that she may be the Holy Maiden of the Red River!"

it!

The woman in yellow turned out to be the Holy Maiden of the Red River!

Vaguely, I had a bad premonition that my father would never let me bring wedding props over for no reason, and there must be some plan.

"Xiao Yan, the hour is almost up, the mother and son are very stiff, I really have no choice but to find you a powerful daughter-in-law to protect you!"

As I expected, my dad wanted me to marry a ghost.

"Dad, don't be kidding, I haven't even had a girlfriend, you plan to let me marry a female ghost, I won't do it, it's too unlucky."

"It's not a female ghost, it's the Holy Maiden of the Red River!"

"The saint doesn't do it, she has been dead for I don't know how many years, and besides, people and ghosts have different paths, and they can't be combined, Dad, you can't bear to watch the old Zhao family end up from now on."

"It's okay, your mother and I are still young, and we can still give birth to one, but you, think about it, whether you want to die or live, only she can save your life."

Of course I want to live, Uncle Zhang's family died very miserably, and I don't want to follow in his footsteps.

Ghosts are ghosts, let's avoid this catastrophe first.

"Dad, I want to live, what should I do now, how am I going to marry her?"

"Xiao Yan, you think too much, when did I say that you would marry her, your identities are very different, one is in the sky and the other is underground, you are the richest."

It's already miserable to marry a ghost, I didn't expect to get into a lot of money, it's too undignified, I'm also a face-saving person.

"Dad, what's the matter?"

"To be honest, I don't know, since the holy woman is willing to see you, it means that you are destined, you can propose to her here, Zhang Cuihua should be coming soon, I will go outside to block for a while."

Dad said he would leave and leave me alone in the ruined temple.

I'm so embarrassed, I haven't even talked about a girlfriend, and now I'm actually asking me to propose to a ghost.

But it mattered, so I just tried.

"Ahem, ahem, Sister Saintess, my name is Zhao Yan, you were very young when you died, you were not married, and it just so happened that I had never been married, do you want us to try?"

There was no response, not even a sound.

It's useless, wouldn't it be too informal.

I thought about it for a while, lit red candles around me, changed into the Chinese dress that my father asked me to bring, took out yellow paper, and wrote my birthday on it.

"Sister Saintess, my name is Zhao Yan, born on November 13, 1996, I have not yet married, I voluntarily joined the family, if the saint can see it, please be merciful and save my life!"

As soon as the words fell, a cold wind suddenly blew in the ruined temple, and the lit candle loomed, and a line of small words appeared on the yellow paper I was holding.

The small characters are written in eight characters of birth, and if you calculate it carefully, it is quite a match for me.

What do you mean, is this agreed?

What about people, why didn't they show up.

I swept left and right, but I didn't see the woman in yellow, but there was an angry roar from outside the door, and a figure flew straight in.

It was the father who fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth were full of blood, and he was still holding a few copper coins in his hand.

"Dad, are you okay, is Aunt Zhang here?"

"I'm fine, how are you, did the saint agree to marry you!"

How do I answer, I really don't know if the saint agreed, she left a birthday, and I don't know what it means.

"Oh, boom, boom, Zhao Li, Zhao Yan, your father and son think that you can sit back and relax by hiding in this broken temple, it's too naïve!"

A person walked in outside the temple, with a disheveled head, a pale face, a slight decay in his body, blood-red eyes, and a ghost baby in his hand.

This person is none other than Aunt Zhang, who has been dead for a long time.

"Zhang Cuihua, my son helped you deliver the baby, the crime is not death, you killed Lao Zhang's family, the revenge will be avenged, it's time to stop!"

My father stood up, holding the copper coin in his right hand and protecting him in front of me.

"Zhao Li, your son's affairs will be talked about later, but you, who injured me before, it's time to settle this account with you!"

Aunt Zhang waved her right hand, and the ghost baby in her hand flew towards her father with grinning teeth.

Dad didn't dare to slack off, stepped on the sword, shook his right hand, and four copper coins shot like arrows off the string, surrounding the ghost baby in mid-air.

The copper coin emitted four white lights, and the ghost baby screamed miserably, his face fell off, revealing his white bones, and his whole body was even more bloody and blurred, and the black qi was overflowing.

"Zhao Li, I can't see it, you still have two brushes!"

Aunt Zhang laughed coquettishly, not caring about the ghost baby being injured at all, only to see her figure flash, and she appeared in front of her father in an instant.

"Die!"

Aunt Zhang is very fast and powerful, and she shook her father back a few steps with one punch.

I was just about to help, but Aunt Zhang let out an angry roar, and a piercing sound wave hit, and my eardrums were shocked and bleeding.

Dad was no better, the copper coin was shaken off by the sound waves, and the ghost baby opened his bloody mouth and bit his father's shoulder in one bite.

"If you don't measure yourself, with the strength of your father and son, you are not my opponent at all!"

"Aunt Zhang, I know you have a grudge, if you want to kill me, kill me, and let my dad go!"

"Zhao Yan, you are mistaken, I don't want to kill you, I want to eat you!"
