The welcoming procession soon arrived outside the inn.

With the sound of firecrackers, the door of the inn slowly opened.

Because of the angle, I could only see the white light shining out of the inn, and there was no shadow in sight, and there was obviously no one to greet me.

The groom at the front walked into the inn to the sound of firecrackers, followed by the procession to welcome the family.

Soon, voices appeared in the inn.

The music grew louder and louder, but it was strange that no one could be heard.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, at my request, no one looked out through the crack in the door.

The voice rang for a moment, then began to move again, and soon appeared outside the inn.

As the joy faded away, all of us had blank expressions on our faces.

"This ...... Master, this is gone? ”

I don't know who asked, but I nodded subconsciously to recover from my surprise.

Originally, in the minds of all of us, the danger this time would come from this strange team, but what we didn't expect was that this team that greeted relatives at night would leave with a sedan chair so directly.

I walked without the slightest souvenir.

Judging from the current situation, it is indeed us who are mistaken, and this welcome may be just one of the many weirdness in this town, which reminds us of the danger of the town.

However, what we thought was the end of the day, at dawn, once again surprised us.

Looking at the stack of white invitations in our hands, we had to overturn last night's conclusion again.

It's a wedding invitation with all of our names on it, one for each of us.

We were invited to attend the wedding at 11 o'clock tonight at the Wu Mansion on the east side of the town.

If nothing else, the wedding should be the same team that greeted the relatives last night.

It's just that we've been here for less than a day, is it necessary to come so steeply?

Zhao Qing's gaze avoided the invitation: "Are we going tonight?" We only need to live for seven days, there is no need to take risks, we can hide here for seven days. ”

She spoke to the hearts of most people, and everyone didn't want to go to this weird wedding.

I thought about it, shook my head and said, "It's better to go, many times, in order to avoid risks, you will put yourself in a bigger risk." ”

Some people want to refute, but they dare not say it.

I glanced at Ma Feifei and continued: "Wait a minute, I'll step on it in advance, you wait for me here, or go to other places to check." ”

"I'll follow you."

"I'm with you."

Xie Juan and Sun Mingyi spoke almost at the same time, and after glancing at each other, they both looked at me with a firm attitude.

These are the two of the least daring of all people, especially Sun Mingyi, if the ghost appears in front of him, I am afraid that his feet will be so weak that he doesn't even have the strength to escape.

They follow me, it's the best choice.

"Okay," I nodded, "you both follow me." Zhao Qing and Ma Feifei, the two of you are walking around the town to see if you can find any useful information. ”

Zhao Qing hesitated, but Ma Feifei nodded directly in agreement.

The decision was made, and we ate a little casually at the inn and went our separate ways.

The Wu Mansion is in the easternmost part of the town, and the mansion is much larger than the other houses in the town.

Although the wedding was going to be held tonight, the door of the entire Wu Mansion was closed, no one walked around, and no sound could be heard.

It's just that the whole house is hung with happy characters and various decorations, and if you change the white to red, it looks very harmonious.

I glanced around and pointed to the small hill on one side: "Let's climb up, there is a condescending place, and we can see the inside of Wu's house." ”

The hillside is not large, and you can only see a verdant patch from a distance, but when you walk to the hillside, you find that it is not as beautiful as it seems.

The previous verdant was only because of the tall trees here, and it was precisely because of the tall trees that they shaded the sunlight and made the whole hillside look very gloomy.

What's even more terrifying is that at a glance, the entire hillside is full of endless mounds of graves, and on both sides of the only road, there are ceramic jars of different sizes.

Xie Juan and Sun Mingyi were just frightened by the mound, they didn't know that those ceramic jars were not ordinary ceramic jars, but an alternative kind of burial.

In each ceramic jar, there is a shrunken skeleton.

Urn coffin burial!

It's just that the urn coffin here is different from the urn coffin that is dedicated to children, and the urn coffin here is placed on the side of the road and is not buried.

This is usually done by burying those who have died in a foreign land.

When there were no relatives to collect the bones, the locals used the cheapest clay pots to roll the corpses into them. In order to save effort, and to facilitate the deceased's relatives to find and move the grave one day, it will not be buried.

It's just that the number of urns here is a bit more than I imagined, just standing at the bottom of the hillside, I can see no less than hundreds.

"There are so many, it can't be just to bury us people."

I whispered.

Xie Juan, who was beside her, didn't hear clearly and asked, "What?" ”

"Nothing?"

"Oh." Xie Juan looked frightened: "Do we really want to go up?" ”

"It's best to go up and have a look, but in addition to observing the Wu Mansion, you also have to look here. It's too close to the Wu house. ”

"I, why don't I and Sun Mingyi wait for you here?"

After Xie Juan finished speaking, she was a little apprehensive.

On the side, Sun Mingyi, who was already as pale as earth, hurriedly said: "That's it, let's just wait for you here." ”

I thought about it, and I didn't embarrass them.

If there is a problem on this hillside, I may not be able to take care of them.

Not going up, it's the best choice.

"Okay, you wait for me here." I pointed to a place where there were no trees: "You are right there so I can see you on the hillside." ”

With that, I walked up the hill.

The trees on the hillside should be deliberately planted and only grow on the small hillside.

As soon as you enter the confines of the hill, the light is much dimmer.

There is no sunlight for a long time, and there are still some footprints on some muddy roads that have not disappeared, all of which are barefoot.

"Strange, do you need to take off your shoes to enter here?"

Naturally, I don't take off my shoes, but I don't step on those footprints, but deliberately avoid them.

Along the path, winding upwards, the dense urn coffins on the side of the road are large and small, but they are all well preserved, not broken, and not as I feared, with a hand sticking out here and a foot sticking out there.

However, the mound outside the urn coffin is not as complete as the urn coffin.

Many graves can only be seen with slight undulations, and there is no longer the appearance of a grave pile, and some have even been dug up directly, revealing the decaying coffins inside.

The excavated soil was covered with a mound not far away.

This is a strange practice, and in general, digging from someone else's mulch is a big taboo. Not only is it easy to provoke evil spirits, but it is also not good for the owner of the tomb.

But when I think about the wedding here, I kind of understand.

It's all the other way around.
