Volume 2 Wandering the World Chapter 61 Flower Picking Thief
The fellow looked at Zheng Dao's disbelieving expressions, and continued: "You are people passing by, and you don't know our situation here. You say that whoever marries a daughter-in-law is willing to use a coffin to pick up someone, but there is no way to do it.
This time we have a flower thief here, every night will come out to harm people, there have been a lot of big girls and little daughters-in-law who have been raped by him, some can't think of hanging or throwing into the well the next day, has made several lives, the government has also strengthened the patrol of several villages, but the whereabouts of the flower thief strange come and go without a trace, caught for a long time and even a figure has not been seen.
People are still killed every night. This flower thief is also very willing to rape this newlywed little daughter-in-law, so that now no one dares to do a happy event, and his family is also forced to send the girl over in the form of a funeral, hoping to use this method to confuse the flower thief and avoid being poisoned. ”
Zheng Dao didn't feel angry when he heard this, since he let him run into it, he had to take care of it. At that moment, Zheng Dao and Mingyang walked into the homes of those who were still arranging funerals.
The family was shocked when they saw the two strangers walking in, and wondered why strangers came when they didn't call outsiders to attend today, saying that the wedding was not a wedding, and that the funeral was not a funeral ceremony.
But seeing that Zheng Dao and the others didn't look like bad people, an old man greeted him and asked suspiciously, "I don't know where the two of you came from, do you need our help?"
Mingyang smiled and said, "We don't need your help, we're here to help you." The old man was stunned for some reason, and the others also looked at each other with puzzled faces.
Mingyang continued: "We have just heard outside that you are not doing a funeral, you are not doing a funeral, you are to send a girl to marry, you are afraid of a flower thief, my brother is the most enthusiastic, I want to subdue demons for you." ”
When these simple villagers heard that someone was going to eradicate the flower thieves for them, they were so happy that they did not know what to do, and hurriedly welcomed them into the house, put fruit and tea on the table, and prepared a meal for them. The old man seemed to be the father of the bride, and he waited by the two of them.
Mingyang grabbed the snack with one hand and stuffed it into his mouth, pulled the old man to the seat with the other hand, and said, "You're welcome, just say what you have to do, and we'll find a way to solve it." ”
The old man sighed with a sad face and said, "Alas, you have also heard that we have recently come to pick flowers, and many women have been raped, and now as long as there are some beautiful big girls and little daughters-in-law, they dare not go out."
The little girl made a marriage contract as early as three months ago, but this flower thief made everyone in danger, how dare I let my daughter take this risk, but her in-laws did not agree to change the marriage date, saying that they had begged many people to give divination, only tomorrow is the best marriage, good days and auspicious days have been chosen, must be completed tomorrow, otherwise the marriage will be withdrawn.
But how can this marriage be said to be withdrawn, it is a great shame, if I am really divorced, how will my daughter marry in the future. I really had no choice but to come up with such a countermeasure, put my daughter in a coffin and send it out, so as to confuse the flower thief. The little girl's in-laws are also reasonable, after all, she is his daughter-in-law, so she naturally doesn't want to be touched by the flower thief, so she can only agree to do so. ”
After that, the old man sighed again and again, and continued: "It's really unlucky, but there is no way to do it. ”
Zheng Dao slapped the table angrily and said coldly: "Okay, let me meet this flower thief tomorrow to see how capable he is." At the moment, Zheng Dao and the old man discussed stopping, or according to the customs of the wedding, but tomorrow's sedan chair does not sit on the bride but Zheng Dao, let the bride sit in the small sedan chair behind.
At the fourth watch of the next day, the groom arrived early on a high-headed horse, because the letter had been sent to them, or according to the wedding process, so the mourning hall and coffin had been removed, and the red and red colors were joyful.
When the bride got on the sedan chair, he set off to his mother-in-law's house, the groom sat on the tall horse and took the new daughter-in-law home, and the drummer took out his housekeeping skills, and the drum music was noisy and lively for a while, which was also Zheng Dao's idea, and it must be done as lively as possible, so as to attract the attention of the flower thief.
Zheng Dao, who was sitting in a sedan chair, secretly paid attention, observing the movements around him all the way. Due to the distance between the two villages, the welcoming team needed to cross the mountains and mountains, and Mingyang mixed in the drum team, nervously waiting for the arrival of the flower thief.
Just as the welcoming procession passed through a canyon, Zheng Dao's eyes couldn't help but squint, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. At the same time as Zheng Dao smiled, a long howl tightened everyone's nerves, and then there was laughter, and the laughter flickered east and west, far and near, as if coming from all directions.
Zheng Dao secretly said in his heart: "The body style is not bad. The incessant laughter made everyone else feel like they were on the verge of a great enemy, and the bridegroom on the horse was so frightened that he almost fell.
Suddenly, Zheng Dao, who was sitting in the sedan chair, disappeared in an instant, and the next moment he had appeared in front of the groom and slashed a palm, and before the groom could react, there was already a young man on the ground with a bloody mouth and an obscene appearance. This person covered his chest with his hands and glared at Zheng Dao fiercely, a little unable to believe that he would be hurt by him.
The person who was injured by Zheng Dao was naturally the rumored flower thief, this is a little demon from the demon world who has just reached the realm of leaving the gods, and he came to the world to find a young woman and improve his cultivation by picking yin and supplementing yang.
He originally wanted to kill the groom and then take the bride away, and such a blatant wedding event was a provocation to him. But what he didn't expect was to meet Zheng Dao, a person who was much higher than his own cultivation.
Through the palm just now, the hearts of the two of them have counted, the little demon's cultivation is not good, and Zheng Dao is a bamboo in his chest. Zheng Dao had already been seriously injured by the flower thief with one palm, and in the face of this kind of demon that plagued the world, he would not be as polite as he was to Defei. After Zheng Dao repelled the flower thief, Ling Ran stood not far in front of him, stared at him coldly and said, "Are you cutting yourself or let me do it." ”
The flower thief still stared at Zheng Dao coldly, trying to calm the qi and blood surging in his chest and abdomen, but after a while, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, staining the stones on the road in front of him red.
After the little demon spit out blood, he suddenly felt a lot more comfortable in his chest and abdomen, he knew that he was not Zheng Dao's opponent, but he was very confident in his body, and it should not be a problem to escape, so he slowly stood up and rose from the ground with a sneer.
disappeared in an instant, although there was no one to be seen, but the voice came from all directions: "Master won't play with you, we'll have a date later." ”
Zheng Dao snorted coldly and said, "If you want to run, it's not that easy." The next moment, Zheng Dao also disappeared in place.
