Starting his cultivation from marrying the Weaver Girl
Chapter 1 A Warm Wedding Banquet
Chapter 1 A Warm Wedding Banquet
In the courtyard, the guests were toasting each other.
Bright red wedding silk hangs from the beams and pillars, the setting sun is half gone, and the wedding night is approaching.
Lin Yao walked around the courtyard holding a wine glass, his face full of festive smiles.
After all, the beautiful bride was waiting for her husband in the house behind him.
However, when he looked at the room where he was about to spend the night, there was an indelible trace of sadness in his eyes.
fear!
Lin Yao drank another glass of wine and went to the side of the house under the pretext of going to the toilet.
"Six days"
Lin Yao slowly exhaled, his face full of fatigue.
This was the sixth day since he had inexplicably come into this world.
The group of people in front of me also had a six-day wedding banquet.
Although he had no worries about food and drink, Lin Yao had basically not slept much in the past few days.
When those so-called guests saw him, the groom, their eyes revealed undisguised greed and covetousness.
They had not touched the dishes at the wedding banquet, as if they were waiting for the last meal to be served.
And this final feast might be Lin Yao himself!
During this period, he also tried to find a way to escape.
But this house didn't even have a gate, and the towering walls were beyond his reach.
"They are getting more and more anxious. I'm afraid they will enter the bridal chamber today."
Lin Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and sighed helplessly.
"Could it be that I really want to make a deal with that old ox?"
Before Lin Yao could stand up, he heard a voice coming from the side.
"Uncle, why are you sitting here?"
He looked over and saw the bride's personal maid standing in the shadows.
When Lin Yao first asked her name, she just said.
"I am proficient in spinning and embroidery. You can just call me embroiderer."
"My son-in-law's actions? Do I need to explain this to you? Are you a little confused about your position?"
Lin Yao glanced at the embroiderer, but his hands were trembling slightly inside his robe.
The embroiderer looks delicate, charming and harmless.
On the third day, when Lin Yao was toasting him, one of the guests couldn't help but pounce on him out of greed.
He would never forget that look of someone choosing to devour him.
Just as Lin Yao was about to struggle, the embroiderer who had been following him grabbed the guest's body.
The eight-foot-tall strong man was dragged by the petite embroiderer.
Soon after, a small dish was added to the wedding banquet.
Not to mention, there were bloodstains dripping from her hands.
"The embroiderer is too talkative."
The embroiderer bowed slightly, but her expression remained unchanged.
"It seems that these people can't touch me before entering the bridal chamber."
Lanterns have been lit in the courtyard, and the sky is also dyed with a touch of ink.
"Can't wait any longer."
Lin Yao stood up and the embroiderer stood behind him.
"You go and see how the young lady is doing. I'm going to relieve myself."
The embroiderer was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Lin Yao to say such words.
But then, she said calmly, "Don't worry about the young lady's affairs, my dear. It's just that the roads in this house are complicated and it's near the bridal chamber. I will take you to relieve yourself."
As she spoke, the embroiderer came to Lin Yao, her tone gentle but unquestionable.
Lin Yao had no choice but to follow her.
The two of them walked through the house. Lin Yao had basically walked every road here.
Some time ago, in order to escape, he asked the embroiderer to take him with him on a journey on the pretext that he was familiar with the environment.
It was at that time that Lin Yao discovered an old ox locked up deep in the courtyard.
"The toilet is not far from the cowshed. I'm afraid we'll have to make other plans once we get there."
Thinking of this, Lin Yao couldn't help but quicken his pace.
However, no matter how fast he walked, the embroiderer was always not far ahead of him and he couldn't get rid of her.
The entire journey was speechless.
"To the north of the toilet is the cowshed, and the embroiderer is guarding the door, so I have no choice but to sneak out."
Lin Yao moved the board blocking one side of the wall. This was the result of his hard work over the past few days.
The hole was just big enough for him to pass through.
He squatted down and when he came out, the embroiderer did not appear behind him.
Lin Yao breathed a sigh of relief and ran towards the cowshed.
"It seems my guess was correct. The embroiderer can only follow what she can see."
Lin Yao did not stop and soon arrived at the cowshed.
He felt a little heavy-hearted because when he first met the old ox, the other party had proposed a deal.
He used the groom's identity to save Lin Yao's own life. At that time, he had just crossed over and had already noticed the abnormality of the guests.
But in the next few days, for some unknown reason, the embroiderer kept following him, never leaving his side.
It was for this reason that Lin Yao went to the toilet to dig a hole every day, just to see the old ox again and complete the transaction.
"I agree to your deal."
Lin Yao pushed open the door of the cowshed, and the smell of blood hit him in the face.
His heart tightened, and the blood dripping from the embroiderer's fingers instantly appeared in his mind.
"Oops."
Lin Yao walked straight into the cowshed, and the old ox had already died.
The hide had been peeled off and spread out on the wall in front of him.
"Still, one step too late."
Perhaps the embroiderer had already discovered the hole in the toilet, but she extinguished the last glimmer of hope for life just as he was about to enter the bridal chamber.
Lin Yao felt a little heavy-hearted, having traveled to this strange world and faced a situation where he was sure to die.
“Life is so hard.”
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't want to accept his fate.
Just as Lin Yao was about to leave, his eyes suddenly swept across the cowhide on the wall.
"There seems to be words on it?"
He stepped over the fallen bodies.
When I looked closer, I saw a few lines of words written underneath the cowhide.
【I am Lin Yao.】
[It’s also this old ox.]
I traveled through time and became a groom
[I'm somewhat relieved that after traveling through time, I have no worries about food and clothing, and I can even marry a beautiful woman.]
【But after that, I found out I was wrong. 】
These people feasted for six days without stopping for a moment.
This is not right at all!
I sneaked into the kitchen and found it piled high with blood-stained groomswear.
[The last delicacy they were talking about was clearly me! ]
I want to escape, but this estate seems endless.
On the sixth day, I found an abandoned cowshed in this manor. Deep inside the cowshed lay a dry well.
[I was overjoyed and crawled out of the dry well.]
[I am still grateful for escaping death]
【But when I came outside the manor, I found out that I was wrong. 】
[There was a woman standing outside the gate. She said her name was Xiu Niang and she had been waiting for me for a long time.]
I tried to fight her, but after just one encounter, I found myself transformed into a cow.
She told me that the river outside is called Tianhe.
The handwriting on the back was very blurry, and Lin Yao could only vaguely make out a few words.
【Weaving Girl】【Wedding Ceremony】【Bride】【Survival】
Beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
This old ox, was it someone with the same name and surname as me?
Or is it itself?
As for the Weaver Girl?
Lin Yao was in a state of confusion, but the writing on the cowhide had not yet ended.
[A few days ago, I had already given up hope of escaping until another groom arrived.]
[The embroiderer told me that if I met someone who looked exactly like me and got him to agree to swap identities with me, I would be saved.]
[This groom actually looks exactly like me.]
[The embroiderer came and said, "I failed. The wedding banquet is waiting for the main course."]
She attacked me, and peeling my skin was so painful, but I was so clear-headed.
She seemed to sense something, and I hurriedly left before I died. What she didn't expect was that I would regain my human form just before death.
If only someone like me could see this.
Don’t trust the embroiderer! Don’t trust the embroiderer!
That’s the end of the cowhide content.
Lin Yao's cold sweat had already soaked through his wedding clothes.
He staggered and leaned against the cowshed door.
It was so quiet around, with only the sound of heavy breathing.
Lin Yao looked at the corpse on the ground, tore off the yellow cowhide, and immediately turned around.
At the door, under the bright moonlight.
The embroiderer stood there and looked at him quietly.
"Uncle, it's time for the wedding night."
