When the book-traveling little detective meets the two-faced prince

The clouds of sorrow were dispelled, and there was no need to hold river god sacrifices anymore. The villagers' faces were visibly brighter and filled with smiles.

The village chief also dressed himself up like a happy eunuch.

The boys and girls were extremely happy to see the happy event. They surrounded Lin Lezhi every day and pulled him to play games. The scope of hide-and-seek almost expanded to the entire village.

With the efforts of the entire village, the villagers decorated the entire Hongzhu Temple very grandly. Bright red silk was hung everywhere, fluttering in the breeze.

In order to create a sense of ceremony, the villagers ordered red silk from the town that was large enough to cover the stone statue and used it to remove the veil.

The weeds on the road leading from the forest to the Hongzhu Temple were also trimmed to make it easier to pass, and the trees along the way were decorated with festive silks.

Even the red bean trees beside the Yulong Waterfall were tied with red silk.

He Yuqing's house was also cleaned and looked brand new. The old "囍" character on the wall was replaced with a new one, and the biggest red lantern was hung at the door.

Every household also hung up red lanterns and lit them for three days and three nights.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Three days later.

The wedding was held grandly in the Hongzhu Temple with loud gongs and drums and firecrackers.

Li Weisheng, dressed in wedding clothes, walked towards the Hongzhu Temple step by step with a determined look in his eyes. The boys and girls picked fresh red beans and put them in flower baskets, scattering the red beans as Li Weisheng walked.

The red beans are plump, scattered into the air and fall to the ground, like red beads.

When he stepped into the Hongzhu Temple and saw the stone statue covered with a red veil, Li Weisheng clenched his fists nervously.

This was his first wedding.

He could finally fulfill his promise to He Yuqing and marry her.

The villagers couldn't come in, so they had to crowd at the entrance of Hongzhu Temple and look inside the temple.

Village chief Ji was standing in the Hongzhu Temple, like a priest, on one side of the altar, holding a red rope with a red flower tied to it, the other end of the red rope was connected to the red cloth covering the stone statue.

Originally, Lin Lezhi was arranged to stay in the Hongzhu Temple as a VIP, but before the wedding started, Lin Lezhi was nowhere to be found.

I asked Xiao Xu and Sun Wan'er, but they didn't know where Lin Lezhi had gone.

But the auspicious time has arrived and we cannot delay it.

Seeing Li Weisheng standing still, Village Chief Ji looked kind and spoke in his loudest voice.

"Trees entwine and surround each other, forever tied to the same root. They embrace each other until old age, never parting. They treat each other with respect and never betray each other. Their love shines as the moon, and the red beads will accompany them for the rest of their lives."

Speak loudly again.

"Worship the heavens and the earth—!"

Li Weisheng bowed to heaven and earth toward the door.

"Second worship high hall——!"

Li Weisheng bowed twice towards the place where He Yuqing's parents were buried.

"Couple greetings——!"

Li Weisheng turned around, stood up facing the stone statue of He Yuqing, and bowed solemnly to it.

People outside the temple shouted happily, adding joy to the wedding.

"Ahem!" Village Chief Ji cleared his throat and raised his voice again, "The ceremony is over! Please ask the groom to lift the veil, and we will be in love forever!"

After shouting, Village Chief Ji handed the red rope in his hand to Li Weisheng.

Li Weisheng nervously took the red rope and pulled the red cloth on the stone statue with force.

What he got in the end was not sounds of congratulations, but screams from all over the yard.

“Ah ...

"It's the Ghost Bride. The Ghost Bride is back for revenge!"

The villagers were so frightened that they pissed their pants and rushed to flee the scene. Only a few brave ones stayed behind.

Xiao Xu and Sun Wan'er also walked in from outside.

Village Chief Ji turned around, his eyes widened, and his old legs immediately went limp, "This... this... a ghost——!"

Under the red cloth, there was not only a stone statue, but also a skeleton in wedding clothes. The exposed skeleton was black all over, and a red rope was tied to the left wrist. Hanging on the red rope was nothing else but a red bean.

A pair of empty eyes stared straight at Li Weisheng in front of him.

Lin Lezhi walked out slowly from behind the stone statue and said with a smile: "Village Chief Ji, you must be old and your eyesight is blurry. This is clearly our bride He Yuqing, how can it be a ghost?"
