Chapter 1: The Secret Marriage

The crescent moon slowly poked its head out from behind the dense black clouds, and a black shadow was faintly revealed on the official road, and the trees rustling in the night wind also emerged from both sides of the official road like ghosts, looming, weird, and gloomy......

Suddenly, a loud suona rose into the sky, and the fire was flourishing in the distance, and a column of blowing and blowing greeting troops came from the black official road.

With the barking of dogs and the loud sound of gongs and drums, the quiet town of Gulan instantly boiled.

"Look at the bride!"

"Look at the bride!"

Erzhu, who was awakened by the noise, jumped to the ground and ran out with his bare buttocks, "Erhuang, go aside!" "Kicked away the big yellow dog that was barking wildly, Erzhu stood on tiptoe and pulled out the deadbolt, pulled the door open, and was facing the greeting team that came over.

"Mother, the sedan chair is papier-mΓ’chΓ©!"

He looked back in horror at his mother, who was running out while fastening the buttons, "And the coffin!" "But a seven-year-old child, in the middle of the night, suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, a gloomy coffin, there is no one who is not afraid.

"Go back, go back!" Erzhu pulled Erzhu back and slammed the door shut, "This is Shen Sanye's marriage, you carefully bumped into the little ghost and caught the boy!" ”

Plugging in the deadbolt, Erzhu Niang took two steps back, thought about it, and turned her head to look out through the crack in the door.

The long procession has not yet finished, more than ten people carried a vermilion coffin on a big red satin shelf, what gold and silver mountains, pearls and jade buildings, Qiongyu carvings, one hundred and twenty-four dowry of paper paste swaying in the night wind, and the middle cut into a four-diamond-shaped hole of the dark money snowflakes like flying all over the sky.

"Tsk, this dowry ......"

"Even if it's paper-paste, you won't be able to get down if you don't have a hundred taels of silver!"

"Don't mention those, see it, this painting alone is a hundred taels!" A short man with yellow teeth pointed to the portraits more than a foot high carried by the two plain white maids in the front, "Gu said that this portrait was painted by Master Fang who personally went forty miles away and invited Master Danqing in Wenchang Academy to paint it. ”

"A hundred taels, so many? It's enough for me to spend a lifetime. The people who watched the excitement gasped, "Go to Wang Daya's painting in the east of our town, it's only ten yuan of silver, and it's only fifteen yuan when you invite it to your home!" ”

", people are dead, can you still draw a flower?" Hearing this sky-high price gap, some people couldn't help but burst into foul language, "Even if you draw a flower, will the bride still live?!" ”

Everyone stretched their necks desperately, tiptoeing and tiptoeing, wanting to see the appearance of the fresh girl, is it really painted into a flower?

It's a pity that Duanfang's portrait was tightly covered by a light veil shaped like a bride's hijab, and everyone's eyes were bigger than the copper bell, and they still couldn't see anything, and they couldn't help but babble.

"Tsk, one hundred taels, enough for us to plant a lifetime of harvest!"

……

Listening to the chatter outside the door, and seeing a grass-yellow coin fall at the door of her house, Erzhu Niang took a sip vigorously, "...... What is there to show off, Shen Sanye's death, the Shen family still doesn't know how many days it can last! ”

Afraid that the children who die early are lonely underground, there are also big families in Gulan Town who marry their relatives over the years, but most of them are quiet, like this, it is the first time that the neighbors who disturb the neighborhood in the middle of the night are uneasy!

Especially the dark money was sprinkled at the door of her own house, which made Erzhu Niang feel unspeakably unlucky.

It's a pity that the Shen family is the richest man in Gulan Town, especially the third master Shen Huaiyu, who was not only famous in Gulan Town during his lifetime, but also belonged to the second generation of people in Zhongzhou Mansion, the capital of Tanxi Province. While muttering, Erzhu Niang turned her head, and Erzhu was standing at the door of the house with her five-year-old brother and three-year-old sister looking at her.

The two pillars are not in one place.

"Go into the house, carefully caught by the little ghost and the boy and girl!"

Erzhu remembered that on both sides of the big red sedan chair he had just seen, the four pairs of strange boys and girls were so frightened that they rushed into the house with their younger brothers and sisters.

The cave room is located in the mourning hall, and the two vermilion coffins are lined up side by side, which is eerie and creepy.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Fuck, you can marry such a handsome daughter-in-law even if you die! He added oil to the lantern, looked up at the two portraits tied together side by side with red rope on the confession, the handsome man and the delicate woman, Mr. Yin and Yang Wen San couldn't help but swallow his saliva again, "...... Obviously, he died fighting for a prostitute, but there was such a beautiful little lady who died for him. "What a fucking good thing!

The Shen family is a business family, the ancestor Shen Qingtian was originally a small grain shop shopkeeper, at the time of the war, plus Shen Qingtian is good at drilling camps, once became the richest man, after the state of Chu, because of the contribution of raising military salaries to provide grain and grass, Emperor Taizu and Empress Taizu personally summoned, made an exception and gave a three-grade Taoist, not only set a precedent for businessmen to be officials, in Chu State, the status of businessmen is also higher than other countries, Shen family ancestors are also really beautiful, loved by businessmen from all walks of life.

It's a pity that there are only three generations of wealth.

Wanguan's family assets are no match for the descendants, and the richest man on one side only passed to the Shen family of the grandfather's generation, but fortunately, the ancestral property located in Gulan Town, Zhongzhou Prefecture, was the sacrificial field rewarded by Queen Taizu that year, so it was preserved, and since then, the Shen family has been guarding the thousands of acres of fertile land and several industries in Gulan Town for several generations.

Seeing that business was not going well, the Shen family also thought about Zhishi, but, after several generations, they spent countless amounts of money, and only three talents were produced.

originally thought that the Shen family would be like this, but who knew that there was a Shen Huaiyu in the Sun generation.

This person has been smart and clever since he was a child, never forget, he is born righteous, his eyes are vicious, he was born a good seedling in business, quite the style of Taizu, Shen old lady Shen Zhongkang's excitement can be imagined, he is determined to re-shake the family style and carry forward the ancestral foundation, and resolutely handed over the position of the head of the Shen family to Shen Huaiyu, who was only thirteen years old, this Shen Huaiyu also lived up to expectations, in just seven or eight years, he ran the business well, as if he had become the richest man in Gulan Town, and became a tyrant living in the south of Tanxi Province!

Mrs. Shen was relieved that Mrs. Shen's hard work was not in vain, a bad news came, Shen Huaiyu encountered bandits on the way to business, fell into the water and died, the body was transported back, Mrs. Shen vomited blood on the spot, and Fang Xueying, the wife who had just been hired and replaced Geng Ti and was ready to sell and hoard grain and get married, heard the bad news, and even threw herself into the river.

Looking at the portrait of Meishan Yuandai, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and suddenly a woman like a fairy in the Nine Heavens, Wen San sighed again, "What a girl......"

was sealed by the Shen family, outsiders didn't know, and personally went to Zhongzhou Mansion with Master Shen to collect the corpse, but Wen San was clear that Shen Huaiyu suffered a tragedy, all because he fought with people in the Zuixiang Building of Zhongzhou Mansion for a clean official, provoked the head snake, and was killed by holding a grudge.

Although he respected Shen Huaiyu's talent, Wen San was very disdainful of his romance, and there was a trace of disdain in his eyes when he looked at his portrait.

Knock, knock......

There was a light sound in his ears, Wen San was excited, his eyes subconsciously swept around, the mourning hall was quiet, a gust of wind blew, and the ......red candle burst into a spark, and he was used to this kind of white thing, and the hairs on Wen San's body couldn't help but stand up instantly, "The third master is angry, the little one is to praise the third grandmother for being beautiful, and she didn't disrespect you......" The more he looked at the portrait, the more he felt that Shen Huaiyu was smiling at himself, Wen San apologized again and again, and walked out with his feet up.

The footsteps were quite steady, one step, as soon as he turned around, until the door, Wen San slammed open the door and rushed out.

"Master Wen, what's wrong?" The man who was keeping vigil outside the door stepped forward.

"Go, go, go......" The cowardice was broken, Wen San's face was pale, "stay away, carefully disturb the newcomer's cave room, the third master arrested you and went to the underworld to drink tea!" ”

Whoosh, a few men of the night watch disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ordinary ceremonies have to keep vigil, but it is another matter if two newlyweds want a cave room.

Looking back at the pair of red coffins, Wen Sanyi's cat waist also burrowed into the darkness.

Night, deathly silent.

I only heard the wind rustling the paper in front of the mourning shed.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You see, is it Shou Yiqin? A voice whispered on the beams of the shed.

"Sister-in-law Liu personally helped change the shroud, and it was a good shroud Qin Butterfly Pei, absolutely right!" Another voice replied, "It is said that it is the ancestral heirloom of the Fang family, because Master Fang feels sorry for his daughter, and he is not willing to pick it!" "Tut-tut," with the natural color carved into the color of the butterfly wings, vivid, there is no second piece in Zhongzhou Mansion, sister-in-law Liu said, she was dizzy when she saw it, and persuaded Mrs. Fang to take it off, but Mrs. Fang suddenly lost her daughter, dizzy in pain, crying to death, how can she take it off? ”

"I heard that Master Fang is a well-known iron rooster, how can he give it up?"

"The Fang family is just this one concubine, Mrs. Fang is baby, and the old man Fang is a ...... who is afraid of his wife" The man explained vigorously, "Haven't you heard, just this statue of the bride on the case cost a hundred taels, and Master Fang really had blood this time!" Swallowed his saliva, "Fuck, the picture on it is a dead man, and no one will buy it, otherwise Lao Tzu will have to serve a pot!" "That's the handiwork of Master Danqing in Wenchang Academy, and it can be sold for dozens of taels.

"Last time, we only got a piece of Qinyu the size of a buckle, and we sold it for three thousand taels, this time if it is really as big as a baby's fist as you said, it will cost tens of thousands of taels to say the least!" The man who spoke earlier showed a look of relief, "This time it's okay!" Another sigh, "It's a shame that you thought about it thoughtfully, and pretended to be a ghost to scare Wen San away." "It's going to be a hassle to steal it when it's buried.

Pretending to be a god, playing a ghost?

The man was creepy.

Seeing Wen San standing in front of the portrait of the newcomer grinding and refusing to leave, he wanted to make some movement, but he just thought about it in his heart, before he could get it, there was a knocking sound on the other side, and he looked at his companion on the other side of the roof beam in horror.

Don't...... Not him?

The man's scalp was numb for a while, and he was about to speak, when his companion on the opposite side had already jumped down, "You listen to the wind at the door, I'm going down." ”

Subconsciously swallowing the question on his lips, the man watched in horror as his companion skillfully pried up the nails of the coffin and opened the lid of the coffin, revealing a pale and beautiful face......

"Fuck, you can still marry such a ...... when you die" stared at the beauty in the coffin and slowly sat up, the man's invective voice disappeared to his lips, and his eyes widened in horror.

This is...... A new house, or a mourning hall?

Zhao Qing looked at everything in front of him in confusion.

On the square table three feet away in front, there was a sumptuous wedding banquet under the red wedding candle, just looking at these, it was obviously for the newlyweds, but on the contrary, the coffin in front of him that flashed with a dark red light under the candlelight formed a strong contrast with the wedding banquet, looking at everything in front of him in confusion, Zhao Qing's eyes finally fell on the coffin under him, and the hairs on his body stood up instantly.

Where is this, how could she lie in a coffin?

Wasn't she on a plane?

As the executive director of a multinational company, due to a problem with a batch of important goods passing through the port, she personally led the team to fly to deal with it, and the flight attendant was patiently telling everyone that the landing gear of the plane was faulty and could not land temporarily, please rest assured...... Why did she come here all of a sudden?

"Where is this?"

Feeling that her voice was driving for a long time, Zhao Qingzheng wondered if she couldn't make a voice and was speechless, and heard a hoarse voice, faint, as thin as a gossamer, definitely not her capable and loud voice.

Whose voice is this?

How can you ask the same thing as her, and be as confused as she is?

Zhao Qing stared at the eye in front of him, which was bigger than the copper bell, and looked at her statue motionlessly and winked, "Who are you?" ”

"Mom, it's a corpse!"

An earth-shattering scream pierced the night sky, plopping up, and another figure on the beam fell straight to the ground......
