Chapter 90: The Chapel
From beginning to end, he was tightly wrapped in a black robe, revealing only a pair of eyes, and when I met his eyes, I shuddered violently, scarlet eyes, gloomy and lifeless, with a ferocity from hell.
It's him, the one who hides behind the cornices to spy on us!
Those scarlet eyes, as if they were staring at me, but not as if they were not staring at me, my nerves were tense, my heart was about to stop, and my forehead was covered with a layer of cold sweat, which slowly ran down my temples.
The man, dragging a sharp axe, walked step by step from the path that the demons had made way for him, and walked to Cui Yan, who was bitten by the demons and scalyed all over her body, shrunk into a ball of fear, and trembled.
The man lowered his head slightly, stared at her for a moment, suddenly raised the axe, and slashed at her head, a bloody light flashed, Cui Yan's head was cut in half, and a deep gap was opened, blood gushed out instantly, dyeing her face red, she was not dead, her hands and feet were still trembling, and she wanted to get up from the ground, the man threw away the axe and lifted her up from the ground, his right hand was like a sharp chisel, and grabbed her skull, with a click, the skull shattered, and his right hand took a break in her head, Pulled out a whole brain with a ball of white flowers!
My eyes were dark, and I almost fell off the horse, but Qi Wenxiu's eyes were quick and he hugged me firmly.
I was terrified to the extreme, and my lips were slightly open, and I couldn't stop trembling.
The man carefully put the still steaming brain into the clothes on his chest, then put the bloody hand to his mouth and licked the blood with his tongue, and then, with a wave of his right hand, the group of trembling demons immediately swarmed over, lifted Cui Yan's corpse with all hands and feet, and ran away.
On the street, it suddenly became empty, the wind was howling, the black robe on the man's body swayed with the wind, he slowly raised his head, a pair of scarlet eyes, staring straight at me, staring at my heart for a while, involuntarily fearful.
Qi Wenxiu hugged my hand, tightened it, and said in a deep voice, "Meng Ye, Qi is marrying tonight, if there is any collision with Meng Ye, please forgive Meng Ye." ”
Meng Ye's face was covered by a black cloth, making it impossible to guess his joy and anger, and after a while, he slowly spoke, "Where did the bride come from?" ”
His voice was low and hoarse, but it was chillingly cold.
Qi Wenxiu also seemed to bow to his majesty, and replied respectfully, "Her name is Lin Xiaonan, her ancestral home is Sichuan, and she is now a senior student at Jiangcheng University. ”
Meng Ye's lifeless gaze fell on me again, I stiffened my back, let him look at it, and after a while, he said coldly, "Tonight, she is your wife, and tomorrow night, you have to hand over her head to me." ”
My eyes widened, almost out of my eyes, I understood what he meant, he wanted my head, he wanted to pull my brain out, right?
Qi Wenxiu was silent.
Around, the yin wind protruded, whining and whistling, terrible and gloomy, as if thousands of ghosts were crying and roaring, and I couldn't help but think of the scene of corpses like mountains and white bones in my mind, and I wanted to cover my ears in pain.
Suddenly, a clear voice shattered the illusion.
It was Qi Wenxiu who spoke, and he said, "What Meng Ye says, is what it is." ”
The hunting yin wind suddenly stopped whistling, and the black-robed man standing in front of the horse disappeared in an instant.
My heart was cold all of a sudden, I felt like I had fallen into a bottomless abyss, two ghosts, one worried about my body, my flesh and blood, and the other worried about my brain, is there still a way to live?
Qi Wenxiu hugged me, jumped off the horse, took my hand, and sent me into the sedan chair, and the moment he lowered the sedan curtain, I asked him, "Can you give me to that Meng Ye?" ”
His narrow Danfeng eyes looked at me deeply, stretched out his slender fingers, gently touched my face, and said faintly, "If you are willing to cooperate with me, things will still take a turn for the better." ”
I tilted my head, avoiding his fingers, and asked warily, "How do you want me to cooperate with you?" ”
He smiled lightly, "Lady, this question, I will answer you when we finish worshipping." ”
After speaking, he lowered the sedan curtain and instructed his paper servants to get up the sedan chair.
A group of people, blowing and blowing, all the way unimpeded, soon stopped at the door of a magnificent courtyard, the matchmaker helped me get off the sedan chair, I saw the plaque hanging on the door of the house with the word "Qi Mansion" written on it, and there were two majestic stone lions standing at the door, I was stunned, this is not the place where I took a photo with Wang Xiaoya and them during the day?
The matchmaker urged me, "New lady, please come in." ”
I hugged Meng Meng and followed her into the high threshold, in the courtyard, the lights were colorful, but all that could be hung were white flowers and white paper lanterns, at a glance, it looked like a memorial service.
On both sides of the road leading to the main hall, there were two rows of paper figures, Bai Sensen's face, blood-red lips, red clothes and red pants, and a pair of maids, they all saluted me and Qi Wen, and shouted to welcome the young master and young lady back to the house.
The matchmaker said to me, "Madam, please follow me to the new house to dress up." ”
The so-called new house is also furnished like a mourning hall, with white flowers, and there are photos of me and Qi Wenxiu on the table, a spiritual position, similar scenes, which reminds me of the night I married Gu Qihan, and my heart became sour, I regret that I didn't let Gu Qihan accompany me to Yan Village, if he was there, would I still be forced to marry that Qi Wenxiu?
But suddenly, I thought of the Meng Ye who was dragging the axe, his strength was definitely above Qi Wenxiu, in case he was also better than Gu Qihan, then Gu Qihan accompanied me to Yan Village, wouldn't he be sent to death with him? Thinking about it, I'm a little glad he didn't come.
I was pressed to the dressing table by two paper maids, like puppets, let them toss, one of the maids skillfully groomed me, and the other took a set of phoenix crowns and xia veils for me out of nowhere, to change my clothes.
I insisted on changing it myself, and then ran behind the screen with the phoenix crown and xia curtain, I quickly took off my plaid shirt, pulled out the peachwood sword from the side waist, wrapped it in the shirt, and hid it in the corner, fortunately I put the peachwood sword on the side waist, otherwise Qi Wenxiu would have found out when he carried me on the horse just now.
After I finished it, they wanted to take me to the church, I said I wanted to take Meng Meng with me, they refused, saying that on the day of the big day, the bride held a beast to worship the church, what kind of system?
I had to leave Meng Meng in the room and whisper to him to run away when he was in danger and leave me alone.
I don't know if he understood, but when I got up to leave, he hugged my legs with both front paws, as if reluctant to let me go.
I felt sour, bent down and patted him on the head, telling him that I would be back, and let him go, and he reluctantly let go of his little paws.
I was almost put into the lobby by the two paper maids, and in front of the door, there was a couple with serious faces, they should be in their seventies, they looked gray-haired, wrinkled, I thought it was Qi Wenxiu's grandparents, but I didn't expect the paper man maid to remind me in my ear that this is Qi Wenxiu's parents, Master Qi, Mrs. Qi.
What surprised me even more was the person sitting on the right hand side of the guest seat, dressed in a green robe and covering his face with a hat, was the enemy that Gu Qihan had been tracking down for many years, the Taoist in green robe!
The green-robed Taoist chief was sitting precariously, his old pine-bark-like fingers casually resting on the armrests of the mahogany chair, his hat covering the upper half of his face, and I couldn't see his face or his expression clearly, but I knew that he was looking at me, because I could feel his cold, poisonous gaze.
Suddenly, he opened his mouth and said coldly, "The auspicious time has come, let the newcomers worship the church." ”
The bride sang a promise, let me and Qi Wenxiu worship heaven and earth, and worship the high hall twice, when she let us worship each other, I stood stiffly and couldn't bend down.
I have already visited someone, that person is Gu Qihan, and it can't be someone else.
The bride shouted again to the husband and wife, but I still stiffened my back and refused to bend over.
Qi Wenxiu stared at me and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "If you don't cooperate with me, you will only end up like Cui Yan." ”
But if I cooperate with him, will I be able to get a good end? The Qingpao Dao Leader should know that my blood can enhance the power of ghosts, and he appeared in the Qi family's compound and let Qi Wenxiu and I worship and marry, what does it mean? It means that what they fancy is my flesh and blood at all!
Die early and die late, it's all death anyway, since it's all death, why can't I die with more dignity?
I looked at him coldly, "You all want me to die, what's the use of me cooperating with you?" ”
