Chapter 2 The Village Bride 1
Wei Yuan stepped forward to follow. The old man took a few steps and looked back. His face looked a little strange in the darkness, "If you don't follow me, this place won't be peaceful at night."

Huang Mao followed in a panic, "I, I'm with you." Passing by Wei Yuan, he even gave her a flattering smile.

Chu Chu's face looked a little ugly, "Who knows this old man in the wilderness..."

The old man snorted coldly, "Whether love comes or not, the old man didn't force you to follow."

Kai Yuan lowered her eyelids, her expression revealed a bit of tranquility, the big man with flower arms also came over, Chu Chu's expression changed, and he still gritted his teeth and followed.

When the group entered the village, they saw that the lights were still on in every house, and there were children playing marbles outside in the dark.

"Uncle Liu, you have brought someone here again." asked a woman in a red gown. She was holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand, with red rouge and bright red lipstick on her face, and a big gold tooth when she smiled. .

"These young people got lost, so I brought them in. By the way, don't you still have a vacant house in your house? Let them live with you." Old Uncle Liu said, his tone still rough.

"Hey, it's easy for you to say. Is it easy for me to entertain a few young people? I, last time those few ran away without giving any money. This time I don't want to." The appearance of an enemy.

Old Uncle Liu frowned, "I can't send people out in the middle of the night. If there are any beasts, wouldn't it be a waste of my life to go outside?"

"Let that little girl live with me, and you can do whatever you want with the others." The woman changed her words, "I'm a woman, so I can't live with a bunch of men."

"All right, all right," Old Uncle Liu turned his head, "Miss, do you think this is okay?"

Wei Yuan lowered her eyes, "Thank you, Uncle Liu."

The woman led Wei Yuan away. Huang Mao wanted to follow, but was held back by the old Uncle Liu, "Young man, come with me. There is still an empty house in the village chief's house."

Under the night, Kai Yuan turned her head and looked at the dimly lit village, always feeling that there was an illusion everywhere.

People going door to door opened their windows out of curiosity because of the arrival of outsiders, but all of them had expressionless faces. Wei Yuan looked over and smiled what he thought was a warm smile, which made it even weirder.

Stepping on the creaking sound of sand and stones, I followed the woman to a spacious yard.

"This is where you live." With a straight face, the woman led him to a room upstairs, "Don't go out at night, it's not safe at night."

Wei Yuan opened the door and went in. It was an old house with a dilapidated earthen bed. The Wei family was a large family with a long history in Xinxing. There had also been those who were favored by the gods. However, in recent years, no one had awakened to the power of the gods, so it gradually declined.

And she is a vessel cultivated by the Wei family, a sacrificer for the family to have a loved one.

She was sitting on the earthen bed, and she didn't feel the slightest feeling in her heart when she killed the woman in the novice house. Maybe her grandfather was right, she was born to be cold-blooded.

Killing someone without touching her in the slightest is like chopping melons and vegetables. Maybe she is really suitable for this strange world of ghosts and monsters.

The woman knocked on the door, Kai Yuan stood up and opened the door, and saw her put down a pot of hot water and come in with a quilt in her arms, "It will be cold here in the middle of the night, you just make up for it first."

The woman took the quilt and spread it, "Okay, remember not to go out at night, don't open the door if someone knocks on the door, just sleep in your bed."

Wei Yuan responded obediently, and the woman nodded with satisfaction and walked out.

Seeing that the woman was gone, Wei Yuan sat down again, but she didn't dare to drink the food here.

It was getting extremely dark, and the lights in every house were turned off again.

She stood by the window and looked outside, wondering if the lights were turned off late at night, and the village was plunged into darkness, without even a single street lamp, as if the moon in the sky couldn't light it up.

No, Kai Yuan raised her head, the sky was foggy, and there was no trace of the moon. It stands to reason that this is the countryside, and it should be when the moon is bright and the stars are thin, but this village seems to be surrounded by fog, dead silent, and lifeless at all. , like a huge coffin.

Wei Yuan shivered unconsciously when he saw it, and suddenly a voice of joy came from nowhere.

"The bride is getting married!" The matchmaker's voice was high, and with the sound of blowing and blowing, the lights in the village were lit up again.

Kai Yuan saw a group of people slowly appearing from the east, "When the bride is married, the outsiders will disperse, and when the bride is married, a hundred ghosts will not come."

There is no way to get married in the middle of the night. When you think of this world of ghosts and this weird village, it seems a little more reasonable.

There was a knock on the door, "Girl, girl, open the door!" The voice was a little hurried.

Wei Yuan didn't move, "Girl, are you asleep? Open the door quickly, open the door quickly...it's time to welcome the bride!" The voice became more urgent and became sharper at the end, "Get up, it's time to pick up the bride!"

The sound of "dong dong dong" knocking on the door can be heard endlessly. Maybe it is because the people inside will not open, and the knocking on the door gradually becomes annoyed. The knocking sound is especially frightening in the dark night.

Realizing that no one would open the door, the sound gradually became smaller, and then there was a sound of friction like a sharp weapon, followed by the sound of tapping footsteps.

Kai Yuan's eyes fell outside the window again, the red sedan chair in the middle was thick with blood, and the wind slightly lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, revealing the bride with the red hijab and the pair of bright red nails falling on her legs.

Through the dim light, as the sedan chair rose and fell, and the skirt of the wedding dress swayed, she seemed to see the embroidered shoes on the bride's feet, dark red, embroidered with the pattern of pistils and stalks.

Then the car curtain fell, and a large group of people carried the bride, playing music and walking in the direction outside the village.

Looking down from upstairs, in the dark, the red of this line looks a bit deep, like bloodstains flowing on the road, moving in every direction.

Suddenly, her eyes fell on the bearers carrying the sedan chair, and she felt that their movements were stiff and strange.

Fortunately, she has good eyesight and can see some of their weird movements.

Wei Yuan tried to push the window, and the window made a slight movement, revealing a crack. He stretched out his hand to carefully push the window open, and carefully flipped out of the window, landing silently on the ground.

There were footsteps coming from the door, Kai Yuan was leaning against the wall, hiding in the corner, only to see the door opened, and a woman with red rouge came out with hands and feet.

However, at this time, she was holding a machete in her hand, and she was not at all as friendly as before. She was kicking and walking outside with extremely abnormal movements.

Kai Yuan and the others disappeared, and then went out with them. At this time, the lights in the village were dimly on,

Kai Yuan walked close to the dark place, her footsteps were silent, she stepped on the path in the village, on the gravel-paved ground, if she didn't pay attention, there would be the rubbing sound of sand and stone.

The joyful voice gradually reached her ears, getting louder and louder. Wei Yuan looked over and saw the bearers standing on their toes one by one. She recalled the strange things her mother had told her. It was said that only dead people can tip their toes. Walk on the ground.

At this time, the bearers were like walking corpses, carrying bright red sedan chairs, but the sound of blowing and beating was extraordinarily festive.

Clearly at night, when Kai Yuan and the others came, every household would still open their windows to say hello, but at this moment it was silent, with no sign of showing their heads.

Suddenly there was a movement, and Kai Yuan immediately hid in the dark, only to see the door of a family was opened, and the yellow-haired young man watched this scene in horror.

And Wei Yuan clearly saw Chu Chu's figure following behind him.

Seeing this scene, the yellow-haired youth turned his head and wanted to run back.

At this moment, the sound of joy stopped abruptly, "Bang!" The sound of the sedan chair landing.

A sharp voice sounded. "The bride's sedan chair has fallen to the ground, unlucky, unlucky!"

Huang Mao turned around and wanted to run in. The leading bearer rushed over vigorously, "You two groomsmen, don't run away."

Chu Chu and Huang Mao were face to face. At this moment, Chu Chu stretched out his hand suddenly, pushed Huang Mao out, and then closed the door with a bang.

Huang Mao turned around in horror, and smiled sinisterly at the bearer.

"I'm not, I'm not!" He struggled desperately and was stuffed into the sedan.

The sedan moved violently, and then Huang Mao was thrown out. At this time, his body twitched, and his face was full of horror and contortion, as if he had seen something extremely terrible.

The sedan chair was lifted up again, but this time it walked quietly.

There was such a big commotion, but the family where Chu Chu and the others lived did not move at all, and it was strangely quiet.

The heavy panting sound was particularly obvious in the dark night. With the panting sound, a man with colorful arms appeared. He was obviously shocked and frightened, but he still hesitated to walk towards the yellow hair.

As soon as Huang Mao saw him, he twisted and struggled, "Help me, I don't want to die!"

Wei Yuan covered her mouth and pressed against the wall tightly, her back soaked with sweat. She saw Huang Mao's eyes disappeared, and the two empty eye sockets made people's hair stand on end.

The sound of tapping and tapping footsteps sounded again, and with the sound of dragging the ground, a woman walked over crookedly, dragging a big machete, at the intersection of the village.

Huang Mao seemed to have heard it too, twisting his body, "Help me, save me!"

Hua Zhi pushed him away, turned around and rushed into the house. "Bang," the door closed, and the shaking dust flew up.

The sizzling sound became more obvious as the woman approached, "Meat, meat." The penetrating voice rang out in the dark night, sending chills all over the person's body.

There was a cracking sound, as the bones twisted, and there was a sound of blood gushing out.

Cold sweat broke out on Wei Yuan's forehead. She huddled in the corner, not daring to move. She only felt that the time was extremely long.

The sound of chopping meat with a machete came from my ears, and because I was on the dirt road, there were occasional groaning sounds, which made my heart chill.

As the sound of dragging items rang out, Wei Yuan clung to the wall. She saw the woman holding one foot in each hand and kicking away.

Wei Yuan covered her mouth tightly, her dark pupils facing Huang Mao's empty eye sockets, while his hands drooped on the ground, rubbing against the sand and stones.

Her heart was beating wildly, and when the person disappeared, she collapsed on the ground, but still did not dare to make a sound.

At dawn, Kai Yuan opened the door and went out. The woman was preparing meals, and seeing her coming out, she asked casually, "Did you sleep well yesterday?"

"Did you knock on my door yesterday?" Wei Yuan lowered her head and asked softly.

"No, I won't go out at night. Are you confused?" The woman's face immediately became serious.

"Oh, maybe I really remembered it wrong," Wei Yuan looked away, "Can I go for a walk?"

"Okay, just remember not to leave the village, it's not safe outside the village," the woman urged.

Wei Yuan responded and walked out. During the day, the village was more lively. Children were running and jumping. One of the children also had rouge on his face. The red lumps were particularly eye-catching.

An old woman came out with a basin and smiled when she saw Kai Yuan, "The girl is out to play, come and have a seat."

Kai Yuan walked over, "My aunt is alone."

"You are here alone with your grandson. It's a coincidence that you are here. We are having a wedding here in a few days, and you just happen to catch it." The aunt smiled kindly, with a few more wrinkles on her face.

"Oh, I'm getting married, I want to be the bride!" A woman wearing a red Xiuhe dress ran out crazily.

The aunt's complexion changed again and again, "Lu Zi's family, if you don't take your daughter-in-law back, let her out to go crazy."

A middle-aged man ran out with his pants up. "Hey, Mrs. Ma, my daughter-in-law is going crazy again."

"What's going on with that wife?" Wei Yuan looked away, her tone was sweet and soft, and her clear eyes were a little curious.

"That family, after their daughter died, this person went crazy. He has been crazy for several years. He pitied the Luzi family." The aunt sighed, with pity in her tone.

"Why are you here!" Chu Chu ran over, with residual fear in his eyes, "I've been looking for you for a long time."

Kai Yuan raised her head with an innocent look on her face, "Why are you looking for me?"

Chu Chu came over and wanted to pull her away, but Wei Yuan avoided him. He also reacted. Although his expression was a little unhappy, he still held back, "Come with me. I have something to tell you."

Kai Yuan put down the beans in her hand, "Ma'am, my friend has something to do, so I can't chat with you."

"Go ahead, go ahead." The aunt waved her hands with a smile.

When he got to a place where no one was around, Chu Chu said in a panicked tone, "The yellow hair who shared the room with me is gone." He swallowed.

"What does Brother Chu mean? Maybe he went out in the morning and hasn't come back yet?" Wei Yuan's eyes flashed, but his face remained unchanged.

"Impossible, I heard him going out last night," Chu Chu said without thinking.

"Yesterday? I fell asleep last night, and Brother Chu asked me, but I didn't know." She blinked her eyes, quite innocently.

Chu Chu paused when he saw her silly look, "Didn't you hear anything yesterday?"

There was a bit of curiosity in Kai Yuan's eyes, "Brother Chu heard it yesterday? I slept soundly last night. Maybe something happened."

"Girl, you have such a big heart. You can still sleep in a place like this. By the way, I remember there were six of us in the hut. How come we are four here?" His tone gradually became lowered and he saved a few points. Test.

Kui Yuan put away the smile on her face when she heard the words, "I also want to know about Brother Chu's question. Could it be that Brother Chu knows?"
