Chapter 1: Absurdity

Next Chapter

June day.

The inside of the house was eerie and terrifying.

A gust of wind blew through the door, and the oil lamps in the mourning hall shook.

According to the older generation, when the oil lamp goes out, it means that the soul of the deceased no longer exists, which is a bad phenomenon.

If nothing else, there will be an accident.

When the wind blows, the lights go out.

The mourning hall is like an ice cellar.

There was a sudden sound.

The straw mat fell, and a man sat upright.

Deceived corpses?

Pei Chen looked around blankly, his breathing gradually shortened, and his head was tearing in pain.

I, crossed?

…… Still married?

Looking at the red paper and red cloth that was just torn off yesterday, it has been replaced with a layer of white silk at this moment!

"A happy event becomes a mourning."

The corners of Pei Chen's mouth tugged at a sarcastic smile!

The haunted house is traditional, but a haunted house is not good...... But there was a fatality.

The death is ridiculous and pitiful.

Kill to pay for your life.

But it was the wife who had just passed the door who paid for her life.

It's ridiculous!

But who's to blame for this?

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, men were superior to women.

And because of the perennial war, there are many boys and girls.

At present, women are the tools to give birth to children and work.

There is a law in the Great Zhou Dynasty that if a woman does not marry after the marriageable age, she must be taxed.

If a woman can't get married, she will either starve to death or be sold as a prostitute and slave.

In this era, women have no status.

It is not ridiculous that her husband herself died, and that she was framed as a calamity, and that she was martyred for herself.

But in my own eyes, this is absurd.

Thinking of this, Pei Chen couldn't be calm.

…………

In the ancestral hall, surrounded by people, in the middle, a woman was tied hand and foot, and a rope was tied around her neck.

To say that it is a woman is inappropriate.

The body has not yet grown, and it is thin and dark due to hunger and fatigue.

In the big week.

A woman is of marriageable age between the ages of 14 and 18, and she is 16 this year.

She has black and white eyes.

With horror in his eyes, he held back his tears and did not shed tears.

She knew that it was useless to cry.

"Fellow villagers and elders, Pei Chen's death is unjust, all of this was caused by her, she killed her husband as soon as she passed the door, such a woman can't stay, and she may affect the village."

The speaker was in his thirties, had a mustache, and his name was Cao Wenxin, who was the head of Lanshan Village.

Under normal circumstances, the village chief should be a respected elder, and he became the village chief at a young age, and there is someone above him.

"The village chief is right, she should die."

Someone should be along.

Qin Mi'er looked at the people who spoke, they were all familiar faces, and they were all the fiercest people in the cave room.

In other words, they are the culprits.

Except for those who should be reconciled.

Everyone else was silent.

Pei Chen has no father, no mother, no brothers and sisters.

Qin Mi'er is not from this village.

Even if they are injustice, no one will stand up and speak out.

The June sun was high and unpleasantly shining.

"The hour has come to begin."

With Cao Wenxin's words, it fell.

The rope around his neck was tightening, and his feet were dangling a little.

In the face of death, Qin Mi'er struggled, but unfortunately her hands and feet were tied to death, showing pain on her face.

On the contrary.

Those real murderers had a smile on the corner of their mouths and a snickering joy in their eyes.

"Stop me."

A voice rang out, and a man came.

Looking for the voice, everyone was frightened.

Under the scorching sun, it makes people gasp.

A dead man appeared alive.

It's not who comes.

It was Pei Chen.

"What the hell."

I don't know who shouted, and everyone else was so frightened that they retreated.

Ignoring the commotion in the crowd, the crowd moved, Pei Chen rushed up in three steps and two steps to untie the rope, and hugged Qin Mi'er into his arms.

Strictly speaking, this is the first intimate encounter with the opposite sex.

The movements look rusty, but I can feel the trembling body in my arms, but I can't help but want to care.

"Husband, yes...... Is that you?"

Qin Mi'er looked at Pei Chen.

Saved on the brink of death, she could no longer control it, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Actually, she is not familiar with Pei Chen.

From the realization of marriage, it was only three days before and after.

They are nothing more than strangers.

But at this moment, only Pei Chen's arms can make her feel safe.

Regarding Qin Mi'er's question, Pei Chen didn't answer, and he didn't know how to answer.

You are yourself.

But is he still his original husband?

Looking around, Pei Chen spat out lightly, "Do I look like a ghost?" ”

"You see, he has a shadow, but a ghost does not have a shadow."

Those who retreated gathered around again.

"You're not dead yet?" Cao Wenxin's expression was complicated.

"If I really die, won't you let you take your lives."

Pei Chen was very angry, if he hadn't arrived in time, Qin Mi'er would have died.

"How can you say that, whoever carelessly cares about people's lives, isn't this all seeking justice for you, this woman Kefu is a disaster."

Someone said.

It was still the familiar faces who spoke.

Pei Chen snorted coldly: "It's you who make trouble in the cave room, when you are a disaster star, Kefu's has become her, do you want to be ashamed?" ”

The face of the person who spoke was hot.

swept over the neighbors who were "seeking justice" for themselves, and the coldness at the corners of Pei Chen's mouth was even stronger!

What a scourge, what a kiff!

It's just that no one wants to take his life!

By the way, let's just eat another desperate household!

"Let's go home." Pei Chen put down Qin Mi'er in his arms.

"Hmm." Qin Mi'er obediently followed behind Pei Chen.

There are no extraneous branches.

Nor did he seek justice.

is not necessary.

It's clear that someone is targeting them.

They didn't even apologize.

It's not uncommon for me to apologize.

But, that's not how things go.

After returning home.

Pei Chen swept the mourning hall empty.

The home is very large, surrounded by mountains and rivers

There is also a yard.

This can be called a mansion compared to the residences of other villagers in Lanshan Village.

But it is such a mansion, in a semi-deserted state.

The yard where you can grow vegetables and fruits is overgrown with weeds.

In addition to the old bed, the table ...... The rest was an empty piece.

This is all due to the fact that the original owner did not use the good yard and lacked money to spend, so he took the valuable items at home and pawned them.

Pei Chen sadly found that he was destitute after crossing over.

"Let's go cook first." Pei Chen said.

The stomach was rumbling, after all, he hadn't eaten anything after death.

After looking at the gruel that Qin Mi'er brought to the table, Pei Chen fell silent.

The word gruel is very aptly described, and you can vaguely see a few grains of rice.

Qin Mi'er seriously scooped all the rice grains into Pei Chen's bowl, then looked at the remaining gruel like water in the pot, and licked her dry lips.

"Sit down."

Qin Mi'er didn't dare to sit down.

A society in which men are inferior to women.

While the men eat, the women can only watch from the sidelines.

Only after the man has eaten is the woman able to sit down and eat.

"I said, sit down, my words don't work."

The tone was accentuated.

Qin Mi'er didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and sat down with a snap.

Not fierce, but disobedient.

But it makes people feel sad.
