MTL - Spirit Walker-Chapter 58 ghost bride
Next, they found the Fire Demon next to the stage on the west side of the inner courtyard.
The stage has been abandoned for many years, with hanging curtains and tatters, and dust on and off the stage.
He sat on the bench, staring blankly at the stage, as if a big play was being sung on the empty stage.
Zhang Yuanqing's face sank. In his field of vision, Huo Demon's body was stagnant, his soul was about to leave, and he was on the verge of death.
He hurriedly walked over, put his hand on the Fire Demon's shoulder, his eyes were black and surging, and the yin energy was continuously absorbed into the palm of his hand, swallowed and digested.
The fire demon shuddered, his empty eyes regained a gleam, and subconsciously shouted:
"It's so cold, so cold..."
While trembling, the fire master looked around, saw Zhang Yuanqing beside him and Xie Lingxi not far away, and shouted:
"Fuck, where have you been? As soon as you leave the lobby, there are no figures..."
"Everyone is scattered." Zhang Yuanqing waved his hand, interrupted the other party's questioning, and asked:
"How will you be here."
"After I separated from you, I walked here unknowingly, and then I heard someone singing..." The Fire Demon said as he recalled:
"I followed the voice and saw that there was a stage here, and there was a woman singing on the stage. I looked at it a few times, and then I don't remember anything."
Speaking of which, he shivered all over, and saw a stage that had been ruined for many years in the distance. Where did the singer come from? Fire Demon looked at Yeyoushen next to him gratefully, "You saved me?"
"This is very obvious." Zhang Yuanqing smiled.
Huh... Huo Demon was relieved, thinking of the experience just now, and after a while, he was afraid: "My skills and props are useless in front of resentful spirits. Brother Wang Tai, thank you very much."
Although each profession has different characteristics, most of the resentment spirits can control the fire demons silently, mostly by level.
The "monsters" of the supernatural are strange and unpredictable. If they are not professional, it will be very troublesome to deal with them. However, there is also a disadvantage, that is, the means of harming people are not intuitive enough.
Efficiency is not as good as stabbing with a knife.
The three found a golden hairpin in the cobweb-covered dressing room beside the stage.
Holding the golden hairpin, the fire demon who received the dowry fell back into his stomach, and then asked:
"Where's Xi Shi and the Great Sage Monkey King?"
Xie Lingxi shook her head: "I haven't found it yet, I hope they are as lucky as you are."
Fire Demon glanced at her: "You really want them to die?"
Xie Lingxi was so pitiful and full of grievances: "How can you say such a thing, brother, we are companions~"
The Fire Demon didn't bother to care about her anymore. The two had an argument before, and he was so annoyed by this little bitch's **** attitude that he didn't like seeing her very much.
Of course, it's also because the girl is not on Fire Demon's XP, otherwise it's another matter.
The three left here and turned to another courtyard. This house was bigger than expected. The backyard was cut into small courtyards, some used as gardens, and some used to build a stage.
After walking for a while, Zhang Yuanqing, who has night vision ability, saw a figure in the distance and staggered towards him.
This person is wearing beanie shoes and leggings, dressed as a spiritual boy, and he is the Great Sage Monkey King.
"Why are you here?" He approached in surprise.
Zhang Yuanqing's eyes were dark and surging. After examining for a moment, he confirmed that it was the deity.
The four of them met and recounted their experiences. After the Great Sage Qitian left, he strayed into a courtyard. There was a room lit by candlelight. He pushed the door to check. quilt.
Monkey King guessed that it was one of the dowry gifts, but he obeyed the will of his heart and quietly retreated.
Then he met Zhang Yuanqing and others.
Huo Mo was stunned when he heard it: "The most cowardly person is the safest?"
"What are you talking about? I'm being cautious, not cowardly." The Great Sage Equalling Tian held his respect for himself.
It makes sense. Sometimes those who survive are not necessarily the smartest and most capable, but the most cowardly... Zhang Yuanqing interrupted the unnecessary argument between the two, looked at the Great Sage Monkey King, and asked:
"Where is the quilt?"
Monkey King looked behind him.
Under his leadership, the four of them came to the yard, and they saw a room lit by candlelight.
Seeing the fearful expressions of the team members, Zhang Yuanqing let out a helpless sigh:
"I'll go get it for you."
This is the home court of the Night God.
Immediately entered the house, after he stepped over the threshold, the lattice door closed automatically.
Xie Lingxi and the others outside saw the moment the lattice door was closed, the figure of 'Wang Tai' disappeared, and the candlelight in the room was dim, but his shadow was not reflected.
After waiting anxiously for a few minutes, the lattice door was knocked open with a bang, and 'Wang Tai' walked out with a bed in his arms.
He looked a little embarrassed, and his clothes were torn in many places and stained with blood.
"Great Sage, go on!"
Zhang Yuanqing threw the hi to the Great Sage Qitian, who took it in surprise, hugged him tightly, and was about to ask him what happened in the room, but Zhang Yuanqing said:
"Let's go and find Xi Shi."
Monkey King couldn't ask any more questions, as his teammates continued to explore the inner courtyard.
The night was dark, with no stars and no moon, and the only light source was the red lanterns hanging under the eaves, dyeing this dead world scarlet.
Occasionally a gust of gloomy wind blows, and the lanterns under the eaves shake, making it even more terrifying.
"Come here, I'm here..."
Suddenly, a soft voice came from the front.
Zhang Yuanqing and the others looked over and saw Xishi standing under the lantern at the corner of the eaves, waving to everyone.
She stood there, her body as still as a clay sculpture, waving stiffly, and the smile on her face was stiff and somewhat strange.
"Xishi!"
Seeing that she was okay, Great Sage Qitian breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go over when the Fire Demon held his shoulders.
At the same time, Zhang Yuanqing's voice sounded in his ears: "Look at her shoes."
shoe? Monkey King stared closely, his pupils contracted slightly.
She was wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes.
She is not Xi Shi! !
"Come here, come here..."
Xi Shi was still beckoning, with a stiff and strange smile on his face.
"Go past her and ignore her!"
Zhang Yuanqing said in a low voice.
Seeing his dignified expression as a night wanderer, Great Sage Qitian quickly retracted his gaze, a little nervous and did not dare to look again.
Everyone continued to walk for a while, Zhang Yuanqing looked ahead and said:
"Do you remember that when Xishi entered the house, he said he saw a woman standing under the red lantern?"
Hearing this, the Fire Demon couldn't help but look back, and vaguely saw the woman standing there, no longer beckoning, and quietly watching them.
"It's so infiltrative..." Master Fire spat.
Xie Lingxi was puzzled: "Why did she become like Sister Xi Shi?"
Zhang Yuanqing looked at a place ahead and sighed, "You can see it by yourself."
What's the meaning? The three did not understand at first, and after walking for a short distance, they vaguely saw a figure hanging under the eaves in front of them.
"Sister Xi Shi?" Xie Lingxi exclaimed.
That person was Xi Shi, she was hanged under the eaves, her charming face was suffocated and twisted, her eyes were round and bloodshot, her face was pale and her lips were slightly pouting.
The death is tragic.
Great Sage Monkey King and Huo Demon were shocked and frightened, but they didn't expect her to die here silently.
Zhang Yuan, who has night vision ability, saw it early in the morning. After the stage of shock, he led the three people with complicated expressions towards the corpse.
Xishi hung quietly, Zhang Yuanqing touched his hands, it was cold, and the time of death was more than half an hour.
"It's Sister Xi Shi's wedding invitation."
Xie Lingxi pointed and landed at the feet of the corpse, where there was a red post.
Zhang Yuan glanced at the wedding post, but ignored it, his eyes were dark and surging, and he communicated with the remaining spiritual body in Xi Shi's body.
He had to verify whether Xi Shi died of a resentment or other factors.
The eyebrows suddenly swelled, and memories that didn't belong to him surged in.
He saw a few broken memories of Xi Shi. This sister is a level 2 water ghost, a spiritual walker from Nanhang City, Tong Province, an unofficial member of a certain folk spiritual walker organization.
Her real occupation is a nurse, and she maintains relationships with several men, including the director of the department, the wealthy businessman, and the manager of the spiritual organization.
An unmarried person who doesn't believe in love, a man is a resource in her eyes.
She is a very good courtesan.
At the end of his memory, Zhang Yuanqing saw a shadow appearing in a wedding dress, and the scene stopped abruptly.
Was she killed by a ghost bride? ! Zhang Yuanqing opened his eyes, his face was stunned, and his back was chilled.
He thought it was impossible, how could the ghost bride take action in advance? Isn't she waiting for her son-in-law?
If the Ghost Bride could attack at any time, how would you play?
In addition, since the ghost bride personally shot to kill, why only kill Xi Shi, but not herself and others? Or, is it just not done yet?
At this time, he heard Xie Lingxi and Monkey King talking about the voice:
"Why is her gender crossed out?"
"I don't know. Maybe after death, it will be crossed out?"
Zhang Yuanqing was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said, "Show me."
Xie Lingxi handed over the wedding invitation.
Zhang Yuanqing stared at it, and Xi Shi's "gender" was crossed out by a thick ink.
Xie Lingxi opened her bright eyes, "Brother Wang Tai, what did you see in Sister Xi Shi's spiritual body?"
The Monkey King and the Fire Demon immediately cast their gazes.
"She was killed by the ghost bride!"
"what?!"
The three looked horrified and looked around vigilantly.
If the ghost bride takes action, I'm afraid no one will survive in the scene. It stands to reason that it will not. Even if it is an S-level task, the difficulty is high and high, and it is necessary to give them a chance to survive.
"I have an idea, but the logic doesn't make sense..." Zhang Yuanqing pondered and looked at Xie Lingxi, who was as smart as a deer, "Can you show me your wedding post."
"Oh!"
She was very cooperative, and took out the wedding card clipped to the waistband of her trousers.
Zhang Yuanqing took it, unfolded it and looked strange: "Gender male?"
Fire Demon and Monkey King looked over and saw the gender column, which said "Male".
The Great Sage Qitian was heartbroken: "You little girl looks so beautiful, didn't expect to be the one with the handle?!"
"What~" Xie Lingxi blushed and explained: "I think that the ghost bride is looking for a husband, and the husband must be a man. If I fill in a woman, it will not be in line with the rules, isn't it? Eliminate directly?"
Fire Demon and Monkey King fell into deep thought.
Xie Lingxi's gender is written as male, so I guessed it right, the old version of women directly cleared the customs, and the new version of women directly gg, because this is the S-level spiritual realm, directly customs clearance, how can there be such a cheap thing... Zhang Yuanqing's The conjecture was confirmed.
Xi Shi was directly obliterated by the ghost bride because it did not conform to the groom's setting.
He explained his reasoning. After listening, Xie Lingxi said with a sad face:
"I'm just guessing, I'm not sure, so I didn't say it. I would have reminded Sister Xi Shi if I knew it earlier."
What you say is what! The idea came to the minds of the three men tacitly.
Now there are only four people left in the team. One ghost bride can still die here, and at most one can die. Fortunately, it's okay... After reading the acquaintance, Zhang Yuanqing untied Xi Shi's body and gently Put it on the ground, look around at the three remaining companions, and say:
"There's not much time, it's time for us to find a wedding room."
Although I didn't count the time silently, I could roughly estimate that it was almost an hour after entering the house.
Xie Lingxi, Huo Mo, and the Great Sage Monkey King quickly forgot about Xi Shi and secretly cheered up.
The four people, each holding a betrothal gift, continued to move forward, went deep into the house, and shuttled silently through different gardens, only the red lanterns accompanied them.
After wandering around for a long time, the four of them could not find the wedding room. Suddenly, they saw a yard in front of them. The eaves and corners were upturned.
The road from the yard to the main house is covered with a scarlet carpet.
"As soon as the time is up, the wedding room will appear." Zhang Yuanqing looked at the tense expressions of his teammates and whispered, "Let's go."
He originally wanted to say humorously: Don't be so nervous, the ghost bride might be a royal sister with **** and hips.
But seeing the solemn faces of the three companions as if they were heading to the execution ground, Zhang Yuanqing wisely dismissed the idea of adjusting the atmosphere.
As of now, they still don't know how the ghost bride chooses her husband, one of the four, or all of them?
In the same way, they don't know if they can survive or not.
Entering the yard, walking across the red carpet, Zhang Yuanqing stopped in front of the door, took a deep breath, and pushed open the lattice door.
"Bang!" The two lattice doors opened inward, Zhang Yuanqing stepped over the threshold, tensed his muscles, and scanned the layout of the house.
The whole room is mainly decorated in festive red, with the words "Happy" on the wall. There is a round table in the hall, two candlesticks on the table, half-arm-length red candles swaying, under the candles are a few plates of celadon, with longan peanuts etc.
On the east side is a large bed. The curtains and sheets are festive red, but there is no quilt.
The bedside was empty, and there was no bride in a wedding dress and a red hijab as I imagined~www.novelbuddy.com~The ghost bride is not here.... Zhang Yuanqing's tense heartstrings slowly loosened, and he let out a sigh of relief, he turned around He wanted to talk to his teammates behind him, but when he turned his head, he found that he was the only one left in the entire marriage room.
The three teammates disappeared again.
"Am I the only one who entered the wedding room?" Zhang Yuanqing froze abruptly, then reacted and muttered, "Ghost brides are very good at playing, and they have arranged wedding rooms for everyone..."
Looking at the current situation, it was in line with his second guess: the four bride price gifts correspond to the four grooms, and the rest will all die.
"I'll wait for the bride to come next, luckily! I just don't know who she will choose..."
Zhang Yuanqing closed the door reflexively, and silently summoned Xiao Doubi and let it lie on his head, ready to stand.
He touched Yingling's head and looked at the festive scene in the room. For no reason, he thought of the jokes he read on the Internet. He thought that as soon as he got married, he would have a husband and children, and the ghost bride could be considered to be at the pinnacle of life!
And my son is not black.
The candles are bright and the room is bright. Zhang Yuanqing originally wanted to sense the passage of time through the burning of the candles, but unexpectedly, the candles were so magical that no matter how they were burned, they would not be consumed.
I don't know how long it took, the door was blown open with a 'bang', the candle went out instantly, and the cold wind whistled in every corner of the wedding room.
The room was dark, Zhang Yuanqing's heart was shocked, the baby spirit above his head trembled violently, and he fell into extreme fear, as if the end of the day.
He turned his head and neck stiffly, and looked at the open door. It was pitch black outside. With night vision, he vaguely saw a figure in a wedding dress with a red cloth head, walking on the red carpet towards the wedding room.
