    Chapter 8 Ghosts marry the prince on the sedan chair

    To give, or not to give?

    Thanks for being calm, I haven't thought about it yet, should I continue to sit down like this, or should I pretend to be a panic-stricken bride and hide back timidly, but the owner of that hand is Quite patient and graceful, he doesn't move, he doesn't move, and seems to be waiting for his answer.

    After a long while, the ghosts made a mess, and Xie Lian stretched out his hand.

    He stood up and was about to lift the curtain and get off the sedan chair, but the other party had already taken a step forward and raised the red curtain for him. The person who came grabbed his hand, but he didn't hold it too tightly, as if he was afraid that it would hurt him, but it gave the illusion of being cautious.

    Xie Lian lowered his head, led by him, and slowly got out of the sedan chair. At the moment, he saw a wolf corpse that was hanged by Ruoxie Ling. His thoughts turned slightly, his feet stumbled slightly, and he gasped and fell forward. go.

    The visitor immediately backed his hand and caught him.

    With this help, Xie Lian also held back his hand, only to feel something cold. It turned out that the person who came was wearing a pair of silver wrist guards.

    This wristband is gorgeous and delicate, with ancient and clumsy patterns. It is carved with maple leaves, butterflies, and ferocious beasts. It is quite mysterious, and it does not look like something from the Central Plains. Kankan clasped the man's wrist, looking refined and neat.

    Cold silver, pale hands, lifeless, but a bit murderous and evil.

    His fall was pretentious and deliberate, and Ruo Xieling had been slowly entwining under the wide sleeves of the wedding dress, ready to go. However, the person who came just held his hand and led him forward.

    Thanks for the pity, the hijab is covered and the road is unclear, and the second is deliberately delaying the time. Therefore, I deliberately walked very slowly, and the other party actually followed his pace, walking very slowly, and the other hand came over from time to time to hold one. Hold him, as if afraid that he will fall again. Although Xie Lian's heart was 120,000 points of vigilance, being treated like this, he couldn't help thinking: "If this is really a bridegroom, it is really gentle and considerate to the extreme."

    At this moment, he suddenly heard a very light ding ding sound. Every time the two took a step, the voice rang loudly. Just as he was pondering what kind of sound it was, suddenly there were bursts of suppressed low-pitched roars from the beasts.

    Wild wolf!

    Xie Lian moved slightly, and Ruo Xie Ling suddenly closed on his wrist.

    Who knows, he hasn't made any movement yet, but the person holding him gently patted the back of his hand twice, as if to comfort him and tell him not to worry. These two strokes are so light that they can be said to be gentle, Xie Lian froze slightly, and the low roar has been suppressed. After listening carefully, he suddenly found that these wild wolves were not howling, but whimpering.

    It was clearly the whimpering of a beast when it was extremely frightened, unable to move, and struggling to the death.

    His curiosity about who was coming became stronger. wanted to lift the hijab, take a look and say, but knew it was wrong, could only see the leopard through the gap under the red hijab. What saw was the hem of a red coat. Under the red coat, a pair of black leather boots was walking unhurriedly.

    The pair of small black leather boots were tightly tucked, and on top were a pair of slender and straight calves, which looked really good when they walked. There are two fine silver chains hanging on the side of the black boots. Every time you take a step, the silver chains shake and make a crisp tinkling sound, which is really nice.

    This step is casual and brisk, more like a teenager. However, every step he took was a plan in his mind, as if no one could stop him. Anyone who dares to stand in his way will be crushed to pieces by him. In this case, it is to teach Xie Lian that he is not sure what kind of character this is.

    Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly, something white on the ground broke into his eyes.

    That's a skull cap.

    Xie Lian froze for a moment.

    He could see at a glance that there was something wrong with the way the skull was placed. This is clearly a corner of a certain formation. If it is touched, I am afraid that the entire formation will instantly attack this point. But looking at the boy's pace, he didn't seem to notice that there was something there. He was about to remind him or not, when he heard an unbearable "click", and when he stepped down, the young man stepped on the skull and shattered it in an instant.

    Then, as if he didn't feel anything, he stepped on the pile of powder and walked over indifferently.

    Thanks: "..."

    He actually, with just one kick, stepped on the entire formation into a pile of waste powder...

    At this time, the boy stomped his feet. Xie Lian moved in his heart, wondering if he should do something, but the young man only stayed for a moment before continuing to lead him forward. After walking two steps, there was a sudden "tick-tock" sound above, as if a little raindrop hit the umbrella surface. It turned out that, just now, the boy held up an umbrella over the two of them.

    Although it was out of time, Xie Lian couldn't help but praise him for being so considerate, but he was still quite strange: "Is it raining?"

    The black mountains, the wild forests. Far in the mountains, the wolves howled at the moon. don't know if it was because of a fight in the mountains just now, there was a faint smell of blood in the cold air.

    Si Qing Si scene, extremely charming. But the young man held him in one hand, held an umbrella in the other, and walked slowly forward, but he was an unprovoked and coquettish charm with boundless lines.

    The strange rain came and went strangely, and after a while, the dripping sound of the raindrops on the umbrella disappeared. And the young man also stood still and seemed to put away his umbrella. At the same time, he finally put his hand away and took a step closer to him.

    Holding his hand along the way, he lightly grasped the corner of the hijab and slowly lifted it up.

    Xie Lian has been waiting for this moment all the way, and he will not move, watching the lingering red curtain in front of him slowly lift up——

    Aya move!

    It wasn't that the young man was murderous, but he had to strike first and stop it!

    Who knows, if Xie Ling flew out and brought a cross wind, the bright red hijab left the boy's hand, flew up and fell, Xie Lian only had time to see the afterimage of a red-clothed boy, and Ruo Xie Ling wore it. past.

    The boy was actually broken into a thousand silver butterflies, and scattered into a splendid starry sky.

    Although it was still out of time, after Xie Lian took two steps back, he couldn't help but marvel at the sight. This scene was truly as beautiful as a dream. At this time, a silver butterfly flew past him faintly. He had to look more closely, but the silver butterfly flew around him twice, and it merged into the butterfly wind and turned into silver in the sky. Part of the light, flapping its wings and flying into the night sky.

    After a while, Xie Lian came back to his senses and thought, "Is this young man a ghost bridegroom?"

    From his point of view, it doesn't always seem like it. If so, the wolves in Yujun Mountain should be his subordinates, so why would he be afraid to look like that when he saw him? And the formation on the road should also be set by the ghost bridegroom, but he casually... stepped on it.

    But if not, why did this young man come to rob the sedan chair?

    The more I thought about it, the more strange it became. Xie Lian threw Ruo Xie Ling on his shoulder and thought: "Forget it, maybe it's just a passerby. It's better to put it on hold for a while, it's more important." Looking around, it's " Huh" with a sound. It turned out that there was a building not far away, standing there solemnly.

    Since the young man brought him here, and the building was painstakingly hidden in the maze, he had to go in and have a look.

    Xie pity took a few steps, suddenly stopped, thought about it, turned back, picked up the hijab on the ground and patted it, held it in his hand, and then continued to walk there.

    This building is a high courtyard with red walls and slightly mottled bricks, stones and wood tiles. It looks like a city god temple that has been around for many years. According to Xie Lian's experience, this shape is mostly a martial arts temple. Sure enough, as soon as he looked up, he saw three big characters on the top of the gate:

    "Mingguang Palace"!

    The Northern Martial God General Mingguang, that is, the general Pei who was said by Lingwen in the psychic array last time, is very prosperous in the north. No wonder they didn't find the Mingguang Temple nearby, but found the Nanyang Temple. It turned out that the Mingguang Temple here was in Yujun Mountain, but it was blocked by a maze. Could it be that this ghost bridegroom has any connection with General Mingguang?

    However, this general Mingguang can be said to be a proud and hot high priest, and his position in the north is also very stable. Xie Lian personally does not think that such a priest would be willing to be involved with such a fierce creature as the ghost bridegroom? It is not a strange thing to be unlucky enough to be occupied by a murderous creature without knowing it. Let's see what the facts are.

    He stepped forward, and the temple door was closed, but unlocked, and opened with a push. After pushing it away, a strange smell came out.

    It's not the gray gas that has been unmanned for many years, but a faint smell of rancidity.

    Xie pity closed the door with his backhand, making it look like no one had come in before, and stepped into the temple. There is a statue of Martial God in the center of the hall, which is naturally the Northern Martial God General Mingguang. Many human-shaped things, such as statues, puppets, and portraits, are easily contaminated with evil spirits, so Xie Lian first went up to inspect this statue of Martial God carefully.

    After looking at it for a long time, the conclusion is: this statue is very well made. Holding a sword, wearing a jade belt. Handsome and handsome. No problem, the rancid smell did not come from the statue, so Xie Lian ignored him and turned to the back of the hall.

    This turn, Xie Lian's whole person must be sure, and the pupils shrink instantly.

    A group of women wearing red wedding dresses and covering their heads stood upright in front of him.

    That faint smell of rancidity emanated from these women in wedding dresses.

    Xie Lian quickly settled his mind and counted one by one, one, two, three, four... all the way to seventeen.

    It was the seventeen brides who disappeared in the Yujun Mountain area!

    Some brides' wedding dresses have faded red and are very old and damaged. They should be the brides who disappeared earlier. And some brides' wedding dresses are still brand new, the style is also new, and the smell of old carrion is very faint, and they should be missing recently. Xie Lian pondered for a moment and lifted the hijab of a bride.

    Under the bright red hijab was a pale face, so white that it turned slightly green, and it was terrifying when it was illuminated by the dim moonlight. The most terrifying thing is that the face of this woman's death has already twisted muscles, but there is still a stiff smile on this twisted face.

    Xie Lian took off a woman's hijab again, and the corners of her mouth also rose.

    The dead people in this room were all wearing happy clothes and smiling.

    Xie Lian's ears seemed to sound the strange song sung by the child again: "The bride, the bride, the bride on the red sedan chair... tears, cross the hill, don't smile under the hood..."

    Suddenly, he heard a strange sound from outside the temple.

    Really very strange sound. It was so strange that it was indescribable, like two sticks wrapped in thick cloth, pounding on the ground violently, and like there was something heavy hanging on it, dragging it hard on the ground. The sound came from far to near, and it came very fast, and in a few moments he arrived at the door of Mingguang Temple. Just listening to "squeak", with a long sound, the door of Mingguang Temple was pushed open.

    Whether it was a person or something, it was probably the ghost bridegroom. And now, it's back!

    The queen had nowhere to escape, and nowhere to hide. Xie Lian only thought for a moment, and when he saw this row of brides, he immediately put on his hijab and stood in without moving.

    If there are only three, four, five or six corpses standing here, then it is natural to see through the wrong number at a glance, but now there are seventeen corpses of brides, unless he counts them one by one, it is difficult to immediately notice Someone got in.

    As soon as he stood in, he heard the strange sound of "dong dong", "dong dong" and "walked" in.

    Xie Lian stood still and thought: "What kind of sound is this? Listening to the long and short pauses, it's a bit like footsteps, but what's the footsteps like this? This is definitely not the boy who brought me here, he is It's very calm and comfortable, and there are jingle bells when walking."

    Suddenly, he thought of something, and his heart tightened: "It's not good, the height is wrong!"

    These corpses were all women, but he was a real man who was naturally longer than a woman. Although there are no more people at a glance, but one person in the group of corpses is very tall, but it can be seen at a glance!

    However, after thinking about it again, Xie Lian quickly calmed down. He is indeed tall, but the girl Xiaoying just simply tied his hair, and did not do much, and these brides were all dressed up with high buns, and some wore phoenix crowns with their heads raised high. A large piece, and some of them may not be shorter than him, even if he is tall, it should not be very eye-catching.

    Just thinking about it, he heard another "swipe" sound, two feet away from him.

    After a while, there was another "swipe" sound, this time, it was a little closer to him.

    Xie pity reacted to what the ghost bridegroom was doing.

    It lifts the bride's hijab one by one and examines the faces of the corpses one by one!

    "boom!"

    If you don't hit it now, when will you wait? Ruo Xie Ling flew out suddenly and hit the ghost bridegroom right now.

    Only a loud bang was heard, and the black mist hit my face. Xie Lian didn't know if the demon fog was poisonous or not. He had no spiritual light to protect his body. He immediately held his breath to cover his mouth and nose, and at the same time urged Ruo Xie Ling to dance out of the flowing wind to disperse the black fog. Just listen to "dong dong" and "dong dong"! Thanks for squinting, I saw a small black shadow passing by the temple gate. The gate of the temple opened wide, and a cloud of black mist rolled toward the woods.

    Xie pity made a decisive decision and immediately chased out. Who knows, he chased after a few steps, and the fire was soaring in the woods, and there was a sound of shouting and killing: "Come on—!"

    A young man's voice was particularly loud: "Catch the ugly monsters and kill the people! Catch the ugly monsters and kill the people! The bounty is divided equally!" It was the little Pengtou. Xie Lian cried in his heart, this group of people said they wanted to go up the mountain, but they actually went up the mountain. There was originally a formation that could not be found, but the formation was smashed by the boy's foot, and they were blind. The dead mouse was actually found. Looking at it again, the direction they came from happened to be the direction the ghost groom escaped!

    Xie Lian rushed over with Ruo Xie Ling and shouted, "Stop and don't move!" Everyone was stunned. He still wanted to talk, and then Xiao Pengtou asked eagerly: "Girl! You were kidnapped into the mountains by that ghost bridegroom, right? What's your name? We are here to save you, you can rest assured!"

    Xie Lian was startled, his heart was funny, and then he remembered that he was still dressed in women's clothes. There was no mirror in Nanyang Temple, and he didn't know what he looked like now, but looking at the reaction, Miss Ying's hand should be very coincidental. The group of people was shocked and took him as a real bride. This little Pengtou was probably counting on him to be the seventeenth bride so that he could receive the reward. In any case, this situation can't let the villagers run around, but he can't guarantee that the ghost bridegroom will not continue to flee. Just at this time, two black-clothed youths rushed over, and Xie Lian immediately called: "Nanfeng Fuyao, come and help me!"

    Unexpectedly, these two people followed the reputation, but they were all stunned, and they took two steps back. Xie Lian asked a few words before they reacted. Thanks for the pity: "You came from there? What can you encounter on the road?"

    Nanfeng said: "Never!"

    Thanks for the pity: "Okay. Fuyao, you should go down this road immediately and search all around to make sure that the ghost bridegroom is not fleeing."

    Fuyao listened, turned around and left. Xie Lian said again: "Nanfeng, you guard here and make sure that no one can leave. If Fuyao didn't find the ghost bridegroom in the mountains, then it must be in this group of people now!"

    Hearing this, the big men were in an uproar. Xiao Pengtou also saw that he was no longer a woman, and jumped up first: "None of them can go? Why are you! There is no king law anymore. Big guy, let's not listen to them..."

    Before he even landed, Nan Feng slashed out with a palm, and a big tree surrounded by one person snapped and fell to the ground. Everyone immediately remembered that this young man would chop things up if he didn't agree with each other. If he chops things up as a pillar, it would be useless to lose money, and he would stop talking. Xiao Pengtou said again: "You said that the ghost bridegroom is in us and in us? Everyone here has a name and a surname. If you don't believe me, you can use torches to shine on everyone's faces and see them one by one!"

    Xie Lian said: "South Wind."

    Nanfeng took the torches in Xiao Pengtou's hand and held them up one by one. Every face is full of sweat, or nervous, or dazed, or excited, all of them are extremely vivid. Xie Lian couldn't see why he came and walked in front of everyone, saying: "Everyone, I have offended you, but I injured the ghost bridegroom, it escaped, and it definitely won't go far. My two children were on the road when they came. If you haven't touched it, I'm afraid this thing will be mixed in with you. I also trouble you to take a closer look at each other, see everyone's face clearly, and see if there is a person you don't know mixed in. "

    As soon as everyone heard that the ghost bridegroom might be mixed in with their group, they were also horrified, they didn't dare to be careless, they looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you. After looking at it for a long time, someone suddenly called out, "Why are you here?"

    Xie Lian's eyebrows jumped, and he grabbed it and said, "Who?"

    Xiao Pengtou snatched someone else's torch, took a photo in a corner, and said, "This ugly bastard!"

    What he pointed at was actually Xiaoying. Xiaoying's face with a slanted nose and slanted eyes looked a little distorted under the firelight. It seemed that she couldn't bear to be exposed to the light like this. She raised her hand to cover her face and said, "I... I'm just worried, I want to come up and take a look..."

    Seeing her terrified, Xie Lian took the torch from Xiao Pengtou's hand and said to everyone, "How are you all?"

    A group of people shook their heads one after another and said, "No one I don't know." "I've seen them all."

    Nan Feng said: "Will he be attached to someone?"

    Xie pity pondered for a moment, and said: "It should not be, that is a solid."

    Nanfeng said: "But since it's already 'fierce', it's hard to say whether it can change its form."

    They were hesitant, and Xiao Pengtou was the first to call: "The ghost bridegroom is not among us, can you see it clearly? After you see it clearly, don't let us go!"

    Everyone sparsely agreed, and thanked them for a glance and said: "I also ask everyone to stay in front of this Mingguang Temple first, and don't leave half a step."

    Everyone wanted to complain again, but when they saw Nan Feng's stern expression, they didn't dare. At this time, Fuyao also came back and said, "There is nothing nearby."

    Looking at the black head in front of Mingguang Temple, Xie Lian said slowly: "Then, it must be in this group of people now."

    The author has something to say:

    Of course, the one who led our Highness along the way is Gong! For the time being, we will not show the face, nor will we spoil the identity of Gong, but it can be revealed that Gong is not a butterfly!

    You can also guess who the ghost bridegroom is or where he is hiding, and I can also spoil: the god in the temple is innocent!!!
