Chapter 58 The Bride
Next, they found the fire demon next to the stage on the west side of the inner courtyard.

The theater stage has been abandoned for many years, the curtains are hanging and tattered, and the stage and the stage are full of dust.

He sat on the bench blankly, staring at the stage blankly, as if a big opera was being sung on the empty stage.

Zhang Yuanqing's face darkened. In his field of vision, the fire demon's body was stagnant, his soul was about to leave, and he was on the verge of death.

He hurried over, put his hand on Huomo's shoulder, his eyes were black and surging, and he continuously absorbed Yin Qi into his palm, devouring and digesting it.

The fire demon shuddered, his empty eyes regained a bit of expression, and subconsciously shouted:
“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? No one was there as soon as you left the lobby"

"Everyone is scattered." Zhang Yuanqing waved his hand, interrupted the other party's questioning, and asked:

"How will you be here."

"After I was separated from you, I walked here unknowingly, and then I heard someone singing." Huo Mo said while recalling:
"I followed the sound and saw that there was a stage here, and there was a woman singing on the stage. I just glanced at it, and then, I didn't remember anything."

Speaking of this, he shuddered all over, and saw the stage in the distance that had been dilapidated for many years. Where did the singing girl come from?Fire Demon looked at Ye Youshen beside him gratefully, "You saved me?"

"It's obvious." Zhang Yuanqing smiled.

Huo. The fire demon was relieved. Thinking of the experience just now, he was afraid for a while: "My skills and props are useless in front of the resentful spirits. Brother Wang Tai, thank you very much."

Although each profession has different characteristics, the wraith can control the fire demon silently, mostly by level suppression.

Psychic "monsters" are weird and unpredictable. If you don't have the right major, it will be very troublesome to deal with them.However, there are also shortcomings, that is, the means of harming people are not intuitive enough.

It is not as efficient as stabbing with a knife.

The three of them found a golden hairpin in the cobweb-covered dressing room next to the stage.

Holding the gold hairpin, Huo Mo, who had received the dowry, felt his heart sink, and then asked:
"Where are Xi Shi and Monkey King."

Xie Lingxi shook his head: "I haven't found it yet, I hope they will be as lucky as you."

The fire demon glanced at her: "You really want them to die?"

Xie Lingxi was pitiful, her face full of grievance: "How can brother say such a thing, we are companions~"

Huo Mo didn't bother to pay attention to her. The two had a quarrel before, and he was so annoyed by the little girl's bitch attitude that he didn't like her very much.

Of course it is also because the girl is not on the xp of the fire demon, otherwise it is another matter.

The three of them left here and went to another courtyard. This house was bigger than expected. The backyard was cut into small courtyards, some were used as gardens, and some were built as theaters.

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 Doudou shoes and leggings, dressed as a spirited boy, and he is the Monkey King.

"Why are you here?" He approached in surprise.

Zhang Yuanqing's eyes were dark and surged. After examining it for a moment, he confirmed that it was the deity.

The four of them met and told each other about their experiences. After Monkey King got separated, he strayed into a courtyard. There was a room in the courtyard lit by candlelight. He opened the door to check. There was no one in the room. quilt.

Monkey King guessed that it was one of the betrothal gifts, but he followed his heart's will and retreated silently.

Then I met Zhang Yuanqing and others.

Huo Mo was dumbfounded: "The most cowardly person is the safest?"

"What are you talking about? I'm being cautious, not cowardly." The Great Sage Equaling Heaven defended himself.

It makes sense, sometimes the one who can survive is not necessarily the smartest and most capable, but the most cowardly Zhang Yuanqing interrupts the meaningless argument between the two, looks at Monkey King, and asks:
"Where is the joy?"

Monkey King looked behind him.

Under his leadership, the four of them came to the yard, and they saw a room lit with candles.

Seeing the team members showing fear, Zhang Yuanqing let out a sigh of relief:

"I'll fetch it for you."

This is the home of the Night Tour God.

Immediately into the house, after he stepped over the threshold, the lattice door closed automatically.

Xie Lingxi and others outside saw the figure of 'Wang Tai' disappear the moment the lattice door closed, and the candlelight in the room was dim, but there was no shadow of him.

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 bit embarrassed, his clothes were damaged in many places and stained with blood.

"Great Sage, continue!"

Zhang Yuanqing threw the joy to the Monkey King, who accepted it in surprise, hugged him tightly, and was about to ask him what happened in the house, but Zhang Yuanqing said:

"Let's go and find Shih Tzu."

Monkey King couldn't ask any more questions, and continued to explore the inner courtyard with his teammates.

The night is dark, with no stars and no moon, and the only light source is the red lantern hanging under the eaves, which dyes this dead world scarlet.

Occasionally, when a gust of wind blows, 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 others looked over and saw Xi Shi standing under the lantern at the corner of the eaves, waving to everyone.

She stood there, motionless like a clay sculpture, waving her hands stiffly, and the smile on her face was also stiff, a bit weird.

"Xishi!"

Monkey King was relieved to see that she was fine, and was about to go over when his shoulder was held down by the fire demon.

At the same time, Zhang Yuanqing's voice sounded in his ear: "Look at her shoes."

shoe?Monkey King stared carefully, his pupils constricted slightly.

She was wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes.

She is not a Shih Tzu! !

"Come here, come here"

Xi Shi was still waving, with a stiff and weird smile on her face.

"Pass over her and ignore her!"

Zhang Yuanqing said in a low voice.

Seeing his serious face as the God of Night Tour, Monkey King hastily withdrew his gaze, a little nervous and didn't dare to look any more.

Everyone continued to walk for a while, Zhang Yuanqing looked ahead and said:

"Do you still remember that when Xi Shi entered the house, she said that she saw a woman standing under a red lantern?"

Hearing this, Huo Mo couldn't help looking back, and vaguely saw the woman standing there, not waving, and watching them quietly.

"It's so fucking intrusive," the Fire Master spat.

Xie Lingxi was puzzled: "Why did she turn into sister Xi Shi?"

Zhang Yuanqing looked at a certain place in front of him, and sighed: "Go and see for yourself and you will know."

What's the meaning?The three of them didn't understand at first, and after walking for a short distance, they vaguely saw a figure hanging from 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 distorted, her eyes were round and bloodshot, her face was pale and her lips were slightly protruding.

The death is horrific.

Monkey King and Huo Mo were shocked and terrified, but they didn't expect her to die here without a sound.

Zhang Yuan, who has night vision ability, saw it early in the morning. He had already passed the stage of astonishment. He led the three people with complicated expressions to approach the corpse.

Xi Shi hung quietly, Zhang Yuanqing touched his hand, it was cold, and the death time was more than half an hour.

"It's sister Xi Shi's wedding post."

Xie Lingxi pointed at the foot of the corpse, where there was a red post.

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at the wedding post and ignored it, his eyes were dark and surging, communicating with the spirit body remaining in Xi Shi's body.

He had to verify whether Xi Shi died of the wraith or other factors.

The eyebrows suddenly swelled, and memories that did not belong to him surged in.

He saw several fragments of Xi Shi's broken past. This sister is a level 2 water ghost, a spirit walker from Nanhang City, Tong Province, an unofficial member, and a member of a folk spirit walker organization.

In reality, she works as a nurse, and at the same time maintains relationships with several men, including department directors, wealthy businessmen, and managers of spiritual organizations.

An unmarriageist who doesn't believe in love, men are resources in her eyes.

She is a very good social butterfly.

At the end of the memory, Zhang Yuanqing saw a shadow in a wedding dress appear, and the picture came to an abrupt end.

Was she killed by the Ghost Bride? !Zhang Yuanqing opened his eyes with a look of astonishment and a chill down his spine.

He thought it was impossible, how could the ghost bride make a move ahead of time?Isn't she waiting to choose a husband?

If the ghost bride can make a move at any time, how can she play?
In addition, since the ghost bride personally killed people, why did she only kill Xi Shi and not herself and others?Or, is it just not done yet?

At this time, he heard the voice of Xie Lingxi talking with Monkey King:

"Why was her gender crossed out?"

"I don't know, maybe after death, it will be crossed out?"

Zhang Yuanqing was taken aback, and immediately said, "Show me."

Xie Lingxi handed over the wedding post.

Zhang Yuanqing stared, Xi Shi's "gender" was crossed out by a thick ink.

Xie Lingxi opened his bright eyes, "Brother Wang Tai, what did you see in sister Xi Shi's spirit body?"

Monkey King and Huo Mo cast their gazes immediately.

"She was killed by the ghost bride!"

"what?!"

The three looked shocked, looking around vigilantly.

If the Ghost Bride makes a move, I'm afraid none of them will survive the scene. It stands to reason that it won't be possible. Even if it is an S-level task, the difficulty is high, and they have to give them a chance.

"I have an idea, but the logic doesn't make sense." Zhang Yuanqing pondered for a moment, then looked at Xie Lingxi, who was as alert as a deer, "Can you let me see your wedding post?"

"Oh!"

She was very cooperative, and pulled out the wedding post clipped on the waistband of her trousers.

Zhang Yuanqing took it, unfolded it, and looked weird: "Gender male?"

Huo Mo and Monkey King poked their heads over and saw the column for gender, which said "male".

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven was heartbroken: "You little girl looks beautiful, but I didn't expect you to be a leader?!"

"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, then it is against the rules, isn't it? Direct elimination?"

Fire Demon and Monkey King fell into deep thought.

Xie Lingxi's gender is male, so my guess is correct. The old version of women directly clears the level, while the new version of women directly ggs. Because this is an S-level spiritual realm, it is so cheap to clear the level directly. Zhang Yuanqing's speculation has been verified.

Xi Shi was killed directly by the ghost bride because she didn't fit the bridegroom's setting.

He expressed his reasoning, and after listening, Xie Lingxi said with a sad face:
"I'm just guessing, I'm not sure, so I didn't say it out. If I knew it, I would have reminded Sister Xi Shi."

Whatever you say is what!This idea appeared tacitly in the minds of the three men.

Now there are only four people left in the team, and the ghost bride can still die here, and at most one can only die. The remaining three companions said:

"Time is running out, we should find a wedding room."

Although I didn't count the time silently, I can roughly estimate that it has been almost an hour since I entered the house.

Xie Lingxi, Huo Mo, and Monkey King quickly forgot about Xi Shi's matter and secretly cheered up.

The four of them, each with their dowry gifts, continued on their way, going deep into the mansion, shuttling through different gardens in silence, only accompanied by red lanterns.

After wandering around for a long time, the four of them still couldn't find the wedding room. Suddenly, they saw a courtyard in front of them, the corners of the eaves were raised, and the windows and doors were pasted with the word "Happy", and there was a harmonious candlelight shining through.

The way from the courtyard to the main house was 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 something humorous: don't be so nervous, the Ghost Bride might be a sister with big breasts and buttocks.

But seeing the dignified faces of the three companions as if they were going to the execution ground, Zhang Yuanqing tactfully dismissed the idea of ​​adjusting the atmosphere.

Up to now, they still don't know how the Ghost Bride chooses her son-in-law, choose one of the four, or want all of them?

In the same way, they don't know if they can survive.

Entering the yard and walking on the red carpet, Zhang Yuanqing stopped in front of the door, took a deep breath, and pushed open the lattice door.

"Bang!" The two latticed doors opened inwards, Zhang Yuanqing stepped over the threshold, tensed all his muscles, and scanned the layout of the house.

The decoration of the whole room is mainly festive red, with happy characters on the wall, a round table in the hall, two candlesticks on the table, half-arm-length red candles flickering, under the candles are several plates of celadon, longan peanuts etc.

There is a large bed on the east side, the bed curtains and sheets are festive bright red, but there is no bedding.

The bedside was empty, and there was no imaginary bride wearing a wedding dress and a red hijab.

The ghost bride is not here. Zhang Yuanqing's tense heartstrings slowly relaxed, and he exhaled forcefully. He turned his head to talk to his teammates behind him, but when he turned his head, he found that he was the only one left in the wedding room.

Three teammates disappeared again.

"I'm the only one who entered the wedding room?" Zhang Yuanqing shuddered suddenly, then reacted, and muttered: "The ghost bride is very good at playing, and even arranged a wedding room for everyone."

Looking at the current situation, it is in line with his second speculation: four bridegrooms correspond to four bridegrooms, and the rest are all dead.

"The next thing is to wait for the bride to come! I just don't know who she will choose"

Zhang Yuanqing turned around and closed the door, and silently summoned Xiaodoubi, letting him lay on his head, ready to fight.

He patted Yingling's head, looked at the festive scene in the room, and for no reason thought of the jokes he read on the Internet, thinking that just after getting married, he will have a husband and children, and a ghost bride can be regarded as reaching the pinnacle of life!
And the son is not black.

The candlelight is bright and the room is bright. Zhang Yuanqing originally wanted to sense the passage of time through the burning of candles. Unexpectedly, the candles are so magical that no matter how they are burned, they will not be consumed.

After an unknown amount of time, the door of the room was blown open with a bang, the candles were extinguished instantly, and the cold wind howled in every corner of the wedding room.

The room was completely dark, Zhang Yuanqing's heart trembled, the baby spirit above his head trembled violently, and fell into extreme fear, as if it was the end of the day.

He turned his head and neck stiffly, and looked at the open door. It was as dark as ink outside. With night vision ability, he vaguely saw a figure in a wedding dress and covered with a red cloth head, stepping on the red carpet, walking towards the wedding room.
