Chapter Twenty-Three: The Secret Marriage

Underworld marriage, as the name suggests, refers to the marriage between the deceased. This kind of custom existed as early as the Zhou Dynasty, usually unmarried young men and women died early, and their parents cherished them excessively, so they spent money on marriage between the deceased.

This custom is considered to express the most simple concept in the hearts of the people, and in ancient times it was officially banned for nothing more than a waste of manpower and material resources. In modern society, these costs are acceptable, but underworld marriages are officially forbidden.

The reason is simple, most underworld marriages are between the deceased and the deceased, but some families will buy a living person for marriage.

In this case, the man dies and the woman is bought for a secret marriage. In some places, in order to ensure the integrity of the wedding ceremony, the purchased woman will be married in the church with a rooster in place of the groom, and in some backward places, the bride will be required to lie down next to the deceased for one night and then be widowed.

The most excessive is the kind that Mu Changli encountered this time, that is, the woman was nailed into the coffin alive and carried out a secret marriage. This practice is undoubtedly a bad custom that must be eradicated, and it was included in the first list of bad customs that must be eliminated by the Heavenly Master of the Han Dynasty.

"She must have been fed something like [Lost Heart], which we taught in class. "As soon as I turned my face, I saw a corpse, even if Liuli dealt with ghosts all day long, it was naturally not very pleasant to see it suddenly. At this time, she was holding a cup of sour jujube porridge in her hand, and her face was slightly pale as she talked about the content of the class about the secret marriage.

Nailing the woman into the coffin alive, even if she gags her mouth and ties her hands and feet, of course, will struggle desperately in this case, and it will inevitably damage the body of the deceased. In order to prevent this from happening, drugs such as [Sadness] came into being.

Don't think about it, it must still be the handiwork of the flower party. Don't ask the other party to bow down to you, you just need to be confused. However, this drug was actually invented to evade some searches with the people who were sold, so a lot of drugs were added to it to reduce physical performance.

"So even if she has been buried for a week, she is not dead, and her face is still a little ruddy. Speaking of this, Liuli stood up all of a sudden, but she stumbled under her feet and didn't stand firmly, but fortunately, Wang Hui helped her in time.

"The consumption of the [Dream Technique] is so large, you can rest here in peace, I'll just go. Mu Changli looked at the other three girls, and finally pointed at Wang Hui, "You have to come too." ”

"Me?" Wang Hui asked with a puzzled expression, "My combat strength is not even two, do you want to go?"

"You don't have to do it, I'm ...... Well, and Lanf, that's enough. It's not so much about the need for you as the knife that needs you. Mu Changli picked up the beans from the map, and the place where the beans stopped happened to have four words written on them: the outer ring forest belt.

......

After the development of the magic capital as a foreign trade port, the surrounding natural environment was naturally greatly damaged. Now, the City Appearance Management Bureau has set aside a special amount of funds to build a 120-kilometer-long forest belt in the outer ring of the magic capital.

Mu Changli took the two girls to take a taxi, and asked to get off halfway on the highway. This place is crossed by several highways, and there is no shop in front of the village, but it is really a good place to bury people secretly.

Of course, Mei Lanfu had already changed back to her usual dress and boots, and Wang Hui put on the knife box on her back at Mu Changli's request, straddling her back with a long straddling it. The three of them walked for more than 20 minutes in the forest belt on the mountain, and then they saw a tomb bag, and there was a shack prepared for the mausoleum keeper next to it.

Since the other party was able to cast an illusion that almost completely erased the traces of a person's life, Mu Changli was still more cautious. He first asked the two girls to stop, and walked swaggering forward, and stood in front of the grave with his hands on his hips.

With such an arrogant style, the grave watchers were of course led out of the shack. One is obviously the same as the gold-wire glasses, all of which belong to the goods that show up to the fisherman to take the bait, and the other has a fierce appearance, which is particularly suitable for working hard as a thug at a glance, and this face can at least scare people when he swings outward.

Mu Changli deliberately took a step forward, looking like I was just here to find trouble: "Hey, I said what is going on with you? The state prohibits burials, and you are still doing this kind of thing in the forest belt, and you can't get along with me, right?"

"Who are you?" the thug said after making eye contact with the gold-rimmed glasses, "What's wrong with burying someone?

"The land belongs to the state, and I belong to the greening department, what do you say?" Mu Changli deliberately asked for a fake certificate next to the City God Temple to get a fake certificate from the greening department of the City Appearance Administration Bureau before he came, in order to scare people for convenience, and at this time, his hand showed up, "Besides, it's not mine, it's yours?"

When the other party saw that it was an official figure, his tone immediately softened a little. The golden wire glasses jumped out in time and sang with a red face: "Little brother, why bother? It's just a mixed meal, such a long forest belt, burying a person in such a big place, how big is it?"

"Yes. The thug added in time, "Besides, people are buried, and you still have to let people move graves? Let me tell you, we are also working for people." But there are people above the main house, and you can please it?"

Mu Changli deliberately made a very angry look, and pointed at them: "One hundred and twenty kilometers of forest belt, looking long, if everyone is buried in it, can the greening be done?" Let me tell you, this is the implementation plan specially approved by the above, and it is to be done as a façade project in the magic capital." Even if you make a fuss up there, you will still be moved to the grave? I must have gotten up on the spot and transported it to the crematorium!"

Having said that, it is impossible to think of a peaceful settlement. The two of them glanced at each other, and the thug's hand reached into his pocket, and the fingers of the gold-wire glasses moved almost invisibly, obviously ready to move.

How could this kind of movement be concealed from Mu Changli, he pretended to be flustered, and stumbled back two steps: "What are you going to do?" I warn you, I'm a government worker, I'll go call the police now...... Before he finished speaking, he ran into the distance.

Of course, the two of them couldn't let him run, although the movements were fast and slow, they still chased after him.

After they had run away, Melanfu and Wang Hui came over. For the two of them, Mu Changli still didn't feel at ease to let them do it, so he led away the people who watched the grave himself, and the two of them were responsible for saving people.

Meranffie checked it a little, and there were no magic circles or spells in this tomb, and there was no mechanism to talk about it. Just as she was about to start digging the grave, a voice suddenly came from behind her: "Yo, there are actually two chicks sent to the door, it seems that I am very lucky today." ”
