Chapter 339: Hunting Time, Wake Up!
Yuan Xian, who was originally at the door of the wedding room to prevent the bride from closing the door, saw the things behind Sheng Xi, and his face changed greatly.
"Get down!" Yuan Xian shouted.
Sheng Xi lay on the spot and rolled aside.
A long knife slashed through her original position, and if Sheng Xi was half a second slower to react, she would have to be cut off by the waist.
I don't know if the magic weapon given by the master will work at this time.
This thought flashed through Sheng Xi's mind, and she quickly rolled a few laps away from the danger behind her.
At this time, she finally saw what was behind her.
It was a man riding a big brown and yellow horse.
The brown and yellow horse wears a red-edged harness, and there is a big red flower of the same style on the horse's head.
The man on the horse was dressed in a red wedding dress, with a red gauze hat on his head, and a long blood-stained knife in his hand.
This is the real groom!
Sheng Xi only glanced at it, then quickly got up and ran towards the wedding room.
Yuanxian's spiritual power was sealed, and his strength was not as good as the bride who opened the hanging, so he relied on basic sword moves to stop the bride and buy time for Sheng Xi to get started.
As she entered, the real groom rode into the marriage chamber as well.
Yuan Xian obviously felt that the bride's movements against him were ossified, and took the opportunity to break free from her confinement.
Sheng Xi hurriedly pulled Yuan Xian to hide in the inner room.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you." The real groom glanced at Sheng Xi and the two with a smile, and rushed towards the bride with a knife.
The bride clasped her hands together, held down the sharp long knife, and smoothly connected the white blade empty-handed.
Who knew that this was just a cover for the groom, taking advantage of the bride's hands being restrained, his free hand grabbed the bride and threw it outside the marriage room.
The bride grabbed the door frame, and the groom drew a knife and cut off the bride's hand.
Without support, the bride fell to the ground and landed outside the wedding room.
The groom drew his knife and rushed to her door, but the bride reacted quickly to dodge and tried to enter the house again, but was stopped by the groom.
The long knife stabbed into the bride's body, and the other party was stunned, turned around and grabbed the groom's neck, trying to strangle him to death.
The bridegroom quickly dodged, tore off the red cloth and satin from the door frame, quickly put it around the bride's neck, and hung her directly.
The bride's intact right hand tried to tear the red silk around her neck, but the groom jumped high and cut off her head.
All this happened extremely quickly, and when Sheng Xi came out of the inner room, he happened to see the headless corpse fall to the ground.
Blood spilled on the ground, and the bones of the skull, encased in the red hijab, rolled to the door, stopped by the raised threshold.
The groom's laughter sounded in the dead courtyard: "Hahahaha......"
Sheng Xi's scalp was numb, and he immediately closed the door, took out the brass cleats and locked the door.
The bridegroom came and pushed the door, but could not push it.
"The two of them were frightened, but now they are safe and can open the door." His tone was gentle, and his smile was hideous and rampant on his face half red with blood.
Yuan Xian stood in front of Sheng Xi, shook his head slightly, and motioned for Sheng Xi to ignore it.
The groom outside the door was obviously the terrifying presence they felt on the street when they entered Markham last night.
Just now, this guy wanted to kill Sheng Xi, but now no matter how nice he says, he can't let him in the door.
"Both, I don't mean anything, I just want to help you. Please open the door. The bridegroom continued to persuade gently.
"Do you think this wooden door can stop me?"
"Open the door, I don't want to hurt the two of you."
"These two are monks from the outside world, right? I can help you get out of here. ”
"Only I know what's going on at Markham, I can tell you. Please open the door, and I'll let me know what happened. ”
Sheng Xi was a little moved, and carefully recalled the rules on one side, which did not mention that he could not talk to the groom.
Sheng Xi gave Yuan Xian a look and asked the person outside the door: "Are you the real groom?" ”
"yes." The groom grinned, and the blood on his face ran down his lips and into his mouth, which he licked clean.
"What happened to Markham?" Sheng Xi asked.
"Well, that's a long story. You open the door, and I'll tell you more. ”
Sheng Xi was not fooled: "To show sincerity, you tell me in detail first." ”
The expression on the groom's face was a little cold: "You open the door, I can't say if you don't open the door." That's my rule. ”
Sheng Xi didn't believe it.
The first thing the groom did when he entered the door was to throw the bride out, indicating that he also had to abide by the rule that "the marriage room is safe", and the murderer must go out to kill.
Now he tricked Sheng Xi into opening the door, definitely to take them out of the marriage room so that he could kill them.
Moreover, the rule that the groom will tell the truth if he is not beaten, and now even if he explains what happened to Sheng Xi, he may not be telling the truth.
However, I can ask and play.
"What are your rules?" Sheng Xi asked.
The groom said, "I can't say. ”
Sheng Xi said leisurely: "You just said that your rule is 'If I don't open the door, you can't tell me what happened in Markham'." Now he says he can't confide in the rules. That's a contradiction. ”
The groom's expression froze, and he was annoyed: "What I said is the truth! Believe it or not! Open the door! I can cut through this door with one sword! Hurry out and get out! ”
This can't deceive people into scolding the street when they open the door, which is exactly the same as the housekeeper.
Sheng Xi was sure he couldn't come in, but he didn't know if it was because of the brass lock, or because the wedding room or the groom himself had other rules.
Anyway, being idle is idle, Sheng Xi motioned to Yuanxian to secretly check if the windows were not closed, and he talked to the groom at the door to attract his attention.
"Why did you kill the bride?"
The bridegroom said righteously: "Eliminate harm for the people." She's murderous, and you've seen it. ”
"Then why don't you stop her before she kills, and wait until the bride shows up?" Sheng Xi asked.
The groom sneered: "She's just a madman, how do I know she's going to kill?" ”
"What's your name?"
The groom raised the corners of his lips, looking very proud: "Qi Yuxuan." ”
Yuan Xian came back after checking the doors and windows, signaling that Sheng Xi's house was safe, and at the same time shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of this name.
Sheng Xi sighed: "I haven't heard of ducks, are you famous?" ”
"Our Qi family is a well-known family in the west!"
Sheng Xi didn't believe it: "But I've lived in the west for a long time, and I've never heard of the Qi family." ”
"Impossible! Now the head of the Qi family in the outside world is my younger brother! I just confirmed it from that person's memory! ”
"Whose memory?" Sheng Xi asked.
Qi Yuxuan paused for a moment and sneered: "I'll tell you when you open the door." ”
He is on guard, and it will be difficult for him to talk again.
Sheng Xi changed the way of questioning: "You haven't shown your sincerity, how can I open the door?" That's the rule I have when I open the door. ”
"! That's not the way your rules are at all! ”
"You're not me, how do you know my rules?"
"I don't know what I wrote?" After Qi Yuxuan finished speaking, he realized that he had lost his words, and banged on the door in anger, "Open the door!" Hurry up and open the door! Otherwise, I'll go in and kill you!" ”
His body slammed against the door, but the wooden door stood still.
Only the Mahayana Immortal Venerable has the ability to make rules, and although the strength that Qi Yuxuan is showing now is very strong, it is not like he has the ability to make the Mahayana period.
Sheng Xi was skeptical of this and continued to say: "I don't believe that the rules were written by you, you must be lying to me." ”
Qi Yuxuan didn't answer this question, and shouted vigorously: "Open the door!" You have the ability to lock the door, and you have the ability to open the door! ”
"You have the ability to hit the door, and you have the ability to tell the truth!"
Qi Yuxuan stopped answering, and slammed the door even more angrily.
The sound of the door was so loud that it seemed to be slammed open at any moment, but it remained closed.
In Qi Yuxuan's scolding, there was a loud sound of beating.
Sheng Xi began to feel sleepy.
It seems that the rule of "please take a good rest" in Article 7 has come into effect.
"Let's go to sleep first." Yuan Xian pointed to the inner room and motioned for Sheng Xi to sleep inside.
There was a marriage bed inside, Sheng Xi didn't dare to sleep, yawned and took out two sets of bedding from the cabinet and spread two bunks.
Ignoring Qi Yuxuan's scolding outside the door, Sheng Xi got into the quilt: "Good night, senior brother." ”
"Good night." Yuan Xian waited for Sheng Xi to lie down, and then lay on the outer layer with his sword in his hand, facing the door.
At the door, there was also a severed hand of the bride that had been cut off earlier, and it fell in a pool of blood, which was particularly oozing.
……
I didn't say anything all night, and when I woke up the next day, it was cloudy.
There was no longer Qi Yuxuan's scolding at the door, Sheng Xi was sleepy-eyed, and was woken up by Yuan Xian: "Little junior sister, get up quickly." ”
Sheng Xi got up and looked in the direction of Yuanxian, and found that the severed hand that the bride had cut off last night was fading away.
She woke up, got up and walked over to check, and found that not only was the pale severed hand disappearing, but the pool of blood under the severed hand was also fading.
"There is no marital room during the day, so we better get out of here. What time is it? Yuan Xian asked.
Sheng Xi glanced at the mechanical watch and found that there was still half an hour before Chenshi.
She motioned to Yuanxian not to make a sound, pulled out the candle on the dragon and phoenix red candle, and came to the door lightly.
Sheng Xi pretended to say: "It's dawn, it should be past the hour." Let's go. ”
There was silence outside, and Sheng Xi stabbed the tip of the candlestick against the window paper, and a scream came from outside.
"Ahh
The menorah felt solid into the flesh, and the white window paper splattered with bright red blood.
Along the hole pierced by the candlestick, Sheng Xi saw Qi Yuxuan holding his shoulders and retreating.
The dog was hiding in the doorway with a knife in his hand.
As long as Sheng Xi and Yuan Xian were just paralyzed and careless, and opened the door to leave the marriage room, they would be cut in two by him.
"The bridegroom, haven't left yet?" Sheng Xi asked angrily.
Qi Yuxuan kicked the door hard and scolded: "Slut open the door!" ”
"Who does the slut scold?"
"Slut scolds you!"
Sheng Xi shook his head again and again: "Tut-tut, Young Master Qi, why do you scold yourself for being a slut?" ”
Qi Yuxuan's face changed slightly, and he no longer talked to Sheng Xi: "If you don't want to die, open the door quickly!" Otherwise, you'll disappear with the wedding room in no time! ”
The bride's severed hand and pool of blood in the house were left with only an afterimage, and Sheng Xi threw a gravel over and found that the stone could penetrate this afterimage.
"The bodies outside are also disappearing." Through the small hole in the window paper, Yuan Xian could see the situation outside the house.
Qi Yuxuan blocked his sight with his body and sneered: "What I said is the truth, you better come out quickly." Otherwise, after disappearing with the marriage room, there will be no bones. ”
"But you're disappearing too." Sheng Xi said leisurely.
Qi Yuxuan was fearless: "I can reappear after I disappear, but you can't." ”
Sheng Xi believed that he was telling the truth in the first half of his sentence, but she wouldn't go out now.
Whether it was Qi Yuxuan or the bride last night, the strength of both of them had been greatly strengthened, even surpassing the strength of ordinary people.
Now when you open the door and go out, you not only have to face Qi Yuxuan, but also the housekeeper's dangerous factor.
Although the butler had no power to fight back when he was beaten, he killed the green-clothed boss so easily the night before, indicating that his strength was likely to increase greatly at night.
Facing these two coercions at once, it is no different from looking for death.
"Young Master Qi, what time is it?" Sheng Xi asked.
Qi Yuxuan said happily: "It's almost time." Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you don't come out after the hour, you'll die! ”
He wasn't lying.
Sheng Xi pointed to the dial on his wrist, and Yuan Xian understood.
This mechanical watch is made by Sheng Xi according to the watches on the earth, and it is very delicately made, and the time can be accurate to the second.
After arriving at Markham, Shengxi was on the right time at every opportunity, making sure that the time on his watch coincided with the time in Markham.
"I'm really for your own good, hurry up and open the door!" When Qi Yuxuan spoke, his figure had faded a lot.
But he can still slap the wooden door with a clang, which shows that his power has not been weakened much.
Sheng Xi took advantage of the fact that there was still a minute before he took out the key to open the lock.
At the same time, Yuan Xian drew his long sword.
The moment Sheng Xi unlocked the door, Qi Yuxuan slapped the door open, and Yuan Xian picked up his sword to stop him and forced him back from the door.
The senior brother and sister rushed out of the marriage room and attacked Qi Yuxuan with their swords at the same time.
In the hallway, the bride's corpse had faded to the point that only an afterimage remained.
The groom, Qi Yuxuan, danced with a big knife.
Swords collided, making a crisp sound.
The wedding room gradually faded, and Sheng Xi realized that time was running out: "Senior brother, leave the corridor!" ”
When I came here to check in during the day yesterday, this corridor didn't exist either.
Yuan Xian understood, and the two broke through from both sides of Qi Yuxuan and jumped out of the corridor.
The moment the senior brother and sister landed and stepped on the yard, the shout of the husband sounded outside the house: "The hour is coming!" ”
The wedding room and the hallway with the red lantern hanging at the door twisted into a ball and disappeared.
Qi Yuxuan raised his knife and swung it at them, but he also disappeared at the same time.
In front of the courtyard, the voice of the housekeeper instructing his subordinates to decorate the wedding hall came from the voice.
With the noise of the subordinates walking around and working, it was as if they had returned from hell to the world.
Sheng Xi breathed a long sigh of relief and retracted the sword into its scabbard: "Senior brother, it's really a thrilling night." ”
"Hmm." Yuan Xian stepped forward with a twisted brow and stretched out his hand to press on the snow-white courtyard wall.
There was nothing unusual about the courtyard wall, and the one that disappeared with the marriage room was the corner gate where the groom appeared last night.
The brother and sister climbed up the courtyard wall again, and found that the corner gate of last night was where the stables were located.
The stables are in the same condition as yesterday, but with the difference that there is a big brown and yellow horse inside.
The horseman came from a distance, and when he saw Sheng Xi and Yuan Xian on the courtyard wall, he was quite happy, and ran over quickly: "The two of you have figured out that you want to leave here, right?" ”
Yuan Xian gently patted Sheng Xi's shoulder and motioned for her to ignore the groom.
Sheng Xi understood, jumped off the courtyard wall directly, and returned to Yanfu.
Yuan Xian followed, and outside the wall, the horseman shouted at them: "Both, it's been two days, you should see the situation clearly!" I'm the only one who can help you! ”
Sheng Xi hurriedly pulled Yuan Xian to the back of the hall, lest she be counted as taking care of the groom as soon as she opened her mouth.
Yuan Xian said in a low voice: "Little junior sister, I probably have some ideas about what happened here. But some things are not very clear. ”
After last night, Sheng Xi also roughly understood what had happened in Markham: "We have to find someone to confirm." ”
Sheng Xi pointed to the front hall with his chin, and the voice of the housekeeper was coming from inside.
In such a strange place, you can't trust the words of strangers.
Only the most honest person here can be asked - the housekeeper.
Yuan Xian understood, and pointed to the moon cave doors on the east and west sides of the hall: "One person on one side." ”
Sheng Xi nodded, and Yuan Xian walked out from both ends of the hall.
Hunt time, wake up!
