Chapter III

"What a strange custom."

When Su Ru heard Peng Yao's words, his eyes followed, and he also sighed quietly.

Sure enough, I saw that behind the welcoming procession, there was a group of people wearing Taoist robes, their faces were bitter, and the atmosphere was dead, which affected the atmosphere of welcoming relatives.

"Uncle, what's going on, why do red and white things go together?"

Watching the welcoming team leave, and watching the team of Taoist priests behind him leave, Peng Yao dared to ask others.

“… It has always been like this, when the old man of the Zou family marries, he will follow these Taoist teams behind him to get rid of evil spirits. ”

The uncle glanced at Peng Yao, saw that he was a foreigner, and patiently explained to Peng Yao.

"Then the lord is a monster?" Peng Yao didn't understand much, and asked randomly.

"The old man of the Zou family is not a demon..."The uncle glanced around, and suddenly his voice was low, and he continued: "It is his physique that is easy to attract monsters." ”

"And this kind of weirdness?" The more Peng Yao listened, the more strange she felt, and later saw that Su Ru also came over to listen.

"This is the eighth lady married by the old man of the Zou family, and their family... I just want to hold a grandson. ”

The more the uncle spoke, the quieter his voice became, and his expression became vigilant, feeling that Peng Yao's question was a little redundant.

"Then the old man of the Zou family has... Did you marry seven wives, and you gave birth... Are they all girls?"

Peng Yao calculated, his eyes were shocked at that time, he didn't expect this Zou family master to be so crazy.

Wanting to get a definite answer, Peng Yao kept staring at the uncle, but he didn't seem to plan to continue, as if the embankment was up.

"I'm a demon master." Su Ru also noticed that he reported his identity plainly.

Su Ru's sentence was quite domineering, the uncle was stunned for a moment, and the people around him also began to be interested in Su Ru.

"Yo, that monk is lucky, if you help the old man of the Zou family and get rid of the ghost that makes the woman unable to conceive a boy, you can get a hundred taels of gold."

The uncle is very envious of Su Ru's ability, the old man of the Zou family is rich, and he has worked hard to marry a wife who can have grandchildren.

"Poor Dao wants to ask, how many wives and concubines does the Zou family have, and how many children does he have?"

Su Ru asked politely, wanting to get the exact situation in order to have the next step.

"I heard that the eldest lady of the Zou family died of excessive blood loss when she gave birth to a baby girl, and the fourth lady hanged herself for some reason."

When the uncle heard Su Ru's words, he lowered his voice and spoke quieter.

"Don't listen to Master Zou's wife, but the Zou family only has two daughters, and the other daughters are cursed by ghosts, and they won't survive for a few days before they fall to the ground."

The uncle continued, listening to it very worryingly, Peng Yao couldn't listen to it anymore, feeling sorry for these dead children, and feeling that this ghost was cruel.

"Those kids, so pitiful." Peng Yao couldn't help but sigh, her face sad.

"Those ladies who married in the past are not having a good time, marrying into the door is beautiful, and within a few days, they are all gray and dirty after going to the street, with bruises everywhere, and they seem to have been abused."

The uncle shook his head helplessly, and told Su Ru everything he knew, hoping that as a demon master, he could have some way to deal with this monster.

"Those ladies are cursed, and they are very pitiful."

"This monster is really cruel and tormenting."

Some of the uncles next to the uncle whispered in agreement, lamenting what happened to the Zou family.

"There is no monster in the world that can determine other monsters in advance, and there is no curse of gender, having a child and a daughter depends on the man's internal factors, and please don't spread rumors and cause panic."

Su Ru listened to what you said was very ridiculous, and couldn't help but persuade and stabilize the people's hearts.

These uncles and uncles, when they heard this, looked at each other, stopped talking, and still couldn't help complaining in their hearts, feeling that Su Ru was not reliable.

"Poor Dao still wants to ask more, I want to know where the address of Zou Mansion is?"

Looking at the words and looks, Su Ru knew what you were thinking, and directly ignored this topic and asked the location of Zou Mansion.

"Follow this street all the way to the end, and you're there." The uncle replied just now.

"Excuse me." Su Ru folded his hands and bowed slightly, said a word, and then motioned to Peng Yao with his eyes, and the two left.

"Master Da Tangyuan, are you going to get married too?" After walking a few steps, Peng Yao said mischievously.

Su Ru ignored Peng Yao's nonsense and kept walking, Peng Yao said boringly: "Ignore me again, where are you going, archmage?"

"Go to Zou Mansion and catch demons." Su Ru finally replied, his tone flat.

"Really, do you know what a demon is?"

Peng Yao was pleasantly surprised, she could finally show her skills, but she still had to ask about the specific situation of the monster first.

“… That's right, this demon is called a birth ghost, and it is the one who is best at harming mothers. ”

Su Ru thought slowly before making a judgment, and he couldn't be very sure, because there were still some things he hadn't understood.

"Giving birth to ghosts... No matter how you listen to it, it's a female ghost, huh~"

Peng Yao listened to the name of the monster and thought of her appearance, and couldn't help but shudder.

His pale face, long black hair, scarlet eyes and a mouth full of fangs made his scalp tingle.

"Specifically, we still have to wait until I personally ask the master of the Zou family to make a conclusion." Su Ru said.

"Master Da Tangyuan, this is not appropriate, people have a big day, you mentioned this with others, and you were kicked out without asking."

Peng Yao questioned Su Ru's thinking very much, and immediately stopped his pace, and the two of them thought carefully about countermeasures.

"Do you have a better suggestion?" Su Ru thinks so about Peng Yao, it seems that she is confident.

"No, if you need an invitation for a wedding banquet, we will definitely not be able to enter, don't you know Taoism, Archmage, change two invitations."

Peng Yao shook her head, there is no normal plan, but she has already estimated the abnormal plan.

"Taoism is not illusion." Peng Yao thought of it, and Su Ru responded indifferently.

"That's fine, we sneaked over the wall to get in, there must be a lot of people going to the banquet, and they can't control us."

Peng Yao waved her hand, looked at the gradually small marriage team, and had a crooked idea.

"This method is not allowed, my appearance, the discrimination is too high, it is not conducive to shuttling through the crowd, and it is not in line with the rules." Su Ru disagreed with Peng Yao's idea and refused very decisively.

"Tsk!" Peng Yao complained: "Bald head is trouble, it's easy to keep your hair, I'll change my hairstyle at night and go in by myself." ”

Hearing Peng Yao's words, Su Ru's brows couldn't help frowning, and he felt uneasy.

“… You pick me up on the rooftop, and if anything happens, I'll slip out. ”

Peng Yao knew that he didn't trust his ability when he looked at Su Ru's face, so he had no confidence in telling Su Ru.

To put it bluntly, Peng Yao was actually a little scared, she used to spend all day with her father in the house, and she was really a little panicked when she really went to other people's territory to spread wild.

"Be careful, don't be reckless." Su Ru finally agreed to Peng Yao's countermeasures.

With that, the two continued to walk deeper into the alley to see the Zou Mansion.

The 100-meter red carpet welcomes the beauties, and the bright red lanterns are hung on both streets.

The sound of flutes and gongs and drums makes a new house, and the cloud dragon and phoenix sedan chair falls.

Jun came to dismount and lifted the curtain, and the white-headed old man was like-minded.

This magnificent wedding preparation, without a thousand gold, can't get it, richer than his father, shocked Peng Yao.

Around the outer wall of Zou Mansion, Peng Yao and Su Ru had already found a relatively low wall on the outer wall, and when the time came, Su Ru would put Peng Yao in from here.

Now, the two of them are waiting for night to fall...

“… Hurry up, there's no one now, send me in. ”

When the lights of thousands of homes were on, it was already the end of the sunset, Peng Yao led Su Ru to the dilapidated wall and asked him to quickly use Taoism to send him in.

Peng Yao went in alone, didn't prepare anything, nothing more than changed her hairstyle and pulled her braids into two balls, even if she was caught, Peng Yao didn't panic.

Su Ru looked around, confirmed the safety of the surroundings, used the Dao technique in his hand, coiled Peng Yao's body, and sent her in.

"Slow down, slow down... I'll see if there is anyone. ”

Peng Yao reminded in a low voice, grabbed the edge of the wall with both hands, and quietly poked her head out to peek inside.

Peng Yao breathed a sigh of relief, this seems to be a garden, no one is here at this time, they should all be celebrating in the main hall, just look at the place in the mansion that is full of red lights.

"I'm in, and you'll be in later."

Peng Yao flipped into it by herself, and did not forget to tell Su Ru, for fear that Su Ru would release the pigeons.

“… Hide this well or it will be discovered. ”

Peng Yao landed, and the "Chengzhang" sandwiched on the belt landed, Peng Yao quickly put it away, and tiptoed forward.

The "Chengzhang" was asked by Su Ru to be carried by Peng Yao, and he seized the opportunity to paste it on the body of the birth ghost to see if he was cultivating, so as to avoid unnecessary fights.

Peng Yao cautiously walked to the gate of the garden, which was already closer to the fiery red light, and the corner was the main hall.

"That's a lot of people."

Peng Yao glanced at the main hall and saw a dense crowd of figures, this wedding banquet, the old man of the Zou family invited a lot of people.

It's easy to say it's easy to do, no one will pay attention to herself, and it's not easy to say it's easy to do, Peng Yao was a little nervous.

Summoning up the courage, Peng Yao pretended to be the person who was also the person of this banquet, and swaggered to the main hall.

Quietly scanning the surroundings, Peng Yao was anxious, why didn't she see the figure of the old man of the Zou family.

"Big brother, where is Master Zou?"

Peng Yao looked around, came to a table of drunken guests and asked, what is needed most now is this kind of person who spits out the truth after drinking.

"Ahh He... In accompanying... The man looked at Peng Yao drunkenly, and after thinking about it for a long time, he vomited.

"Huh... Where's the cave house?"

Peng Yao was so frightened that she retreated, patted the man's back, and shouted in his ear while comforting him, for fear that he wouldn't hear it.

"In!" The man suddenly straightened up and pointed to the doorway on the right.

Peng Yao looked in the direction of the man's finger, it was also a garden, and he passed by in disbelief.

Peng Yao cautiously walked through the small garden and found that there was a stone door there.

After passing the stone gate, there is a huge direction, which is also brightly lit, and it seems that someone is here.

"Ahh … No," suddenly there was a maternal cry.

"Madame... Come on... It's coming out right away! "It's the voice of the midwife, she's cheering for the mother.

"Having a baby on a big day?"

…
