Burial with Qing Yao

Chapter 43 Paper Bride

The things in Cangxi Town are unusual everywhere.

Jiang Ran was sitting on a rock with his head in his arms, thinking. Yin Juan sat beside him and couldn't help smoothing the wrinkles on his clothes.

"The territory stone has been buried, and now Cangxi is also your territory. The death of Chuyi is more like a demon. If you want to stand up, this is the right place."

He helped Jiang Ran analyze a little bit, "Chu Yi just died not long ago, and he was able to become a ghost messenger. He must have had a resentment that could not be resolved before he died. Before the future and the past were settled, he couldn't get the book of life and death, and he couldn't complete the handover smoothly. He should be a half-hearted man now." The state of the ghost..."

Jiang Ran listened for a while, then looked at his eye sockets, and suddenly said, "You didn't sleep last night?"

Not only him, but also Xiao Lingdang, the underside of his eyes is also black and blue, and he looks like he hasn't slept well.

This sudden concern made Yinjuan stunned for a moment, "I'm fine, I'm used to it."

Jiang Ran put He Shuting in the basket, placed it a little far away from them, and pointed to the sunlight above his head.

"Look, the sun is just right, neither cold nor hot. If you want to go to the storage house, it's not suitable now, so you might as well get a good night's sleep." As he said this, he pressed Yinjuan's shoulder and let him lie down On the grass, "Close your eyes, I won't leave, I will stay by your side."

Bai Wenxing had long since yawned and lay down. She was exhausted from fighting hard last night and traveling all night.

In the shade of the trees on the grass, Jiang Ran and Sang Zhuo were the only ones sitting there quietly.

The spring was just right, the cool breeze was blowing, and the surroundings were pleasant. In the basket not far away, He Shuting, who couldn't stop talking, howled twice inappropriately.

Jiang Ran: "Shut up!"

This was the first time Jiang Ran used coercion on others.

He Shuting was at most in the Mayfly Realm, and Jiang Ran was in the Transfiguration Realm, so no matter what he said, he would be overwhelmed. Once the pressure of the realm came out, monsters with low realms would naturally be afraid.

He Shuting was afraid, and it was a flaw that he couldn't shut up. He hummed twice, and offered a pertinent suggestion through the basket, "I also know that I'm long-winded and noisy, and I can't control it. I really want to sing a few words now. Why don't you knock me out?"

This was a good way to make He Shuting shut up temporarily. In order to ensure the sleep of Yin Juan and Bai Wenxing, Jiang Ran satisfied him on the spot!

At night, the yin is more abundant.

Bai Wenxing woke up first, stretched himself, and saw Jiang Ran booing her.

She looked over there, and it turned out that Yinjuan was still asleep, and it was not easy to let him sleep.

So she stretched her muscles very patiently and waited with Jiang Ran.

After a while, Yinjuan woke up.They still have business to do. It is best for children not to enter a dead man's house. Jiang Ran arranged Bai Wenxing and Sang Zhuo in the inn, took a basket, and went to the Chu family's house with the silver family to check first.

After the Chu family was wiped out, few people around walked here, so the surrounding area looked extraordinarily desolate.

Previously, Cangxi Town was surrounded by vegetation, and the ground was full of tree roots. Now these plants have changed back, leaving only fallen leaves all over the ground and tunnels passed by tree roots.

The plaque with the words "Storage House" was still hanging on the gate of the house, and the two white lanterns at the gate swayed in the wind.

He Shuting looked out through the gap in the basket, and when he came to the door, he felt like retreating.

"I'm a little scared..." He was always timid.

"You only have one head left. The ghost will shake three times when it sees you. What are you afraid of? You don't want to find the prince anymore?"

"I want to find it! I want it even in my dreams!" He Shuting could only comfort himself, since he is immortal anyway, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Holding the basket in his hands, Jiang Ran and Yinjuan stood in front of the house, but they didn't know if it was the wind or something caused it, and the plaque with the word storage house fell down.

Ordinary people standing below will have their heads cut open.

Thanks to Jiang Ran's quick eyes and quick hands, he pulled out the copper balance and split the plaque in half.

The plaque fell to the ground with a loud noise, which startled He Shuting again.

"No, my heart can't take it! Or you put me outside?"

"Do you have a heart? Don't you have only one head left?" Jiang Ran asked him.

"Then... my eyes can't stand it, I can't see dirty things."

He Shuting repeatedly expressed his intention to quit, and Jiang Ran reminded him, "If the Chuyi doesn't spit out that resentment within the specified time limit, he won't be able to get the book of life and death. If he can't do handover, if he can't be a ghost messenger, he will become a dirty man." thing!"

Jiang Ran: "Can you bear it now?"

He Shuting didn't know that it turned out that there was still a threshold to be a ghost messenger these days, and it turned out that it was not so easy to be a ghost messenger.

He Shuting: "Time waits for no one, sir, hurry in!"

Inside the storage house, paper money was blown all over the place by the wind, the door was ajar, and there were still black handprints on the door, which were dried blood.

As soon as Jiang Ran entered the door, he was choked by the bloody and evil aura that filled the house.

Counting the time, the souls who died in the Chu family's house must have been taken away by ghost messengers, and there is no way to understand the whole story from them.

And as soon as they stepped into the house, there was a layer of reddish blood mist in the house, no matter how you looked at it, it was a warning that they were not welcome.

Under the cover of this layer of blood mist, the white lanterns and white silk hanging in the house turned red slowly under Jiang Ran's eyelids, as if a funeral turned into a happy one.

"The atmosphere is quite festive." Jiang Ran commented.

He Shuting was so frightened that he muttered nonsense in order to distract himself.

"There are 23 fallen leaves on the steps, and there are twelve pictures in the storage characters. It's a little dark, and I'm a little scared..."

Jiang Ranti walked into the blood mist with a basket in her basket, reminding her relatives from time to time, "Follow closely, don't get lost."

The fog was thick, and after Jiang Ran groped in the fog, he came to an open place. There was a boxy thing parked in front of it. When he got closer, he realized that it was a red sedan chair, the kind used to pick up brides. sedan chair.

The red curtain on the car door fluttered with the wind, and one could vaguely see that there seemed to be someone sitting inside.

Jiang Ran lifted the curtain with a copper balance and looked inside.

The man was dressed in wedding clothes, covered with a red hijab, and sat motionless.

He Shuting was so frightened that his face turned pale and his voice trembled, "Why don't you knock me out again."

Jiang Ran ignored him, put the basket at his feet, and lifted the hijab with a copper scale.

Unexpectedly, this lift made goosebumps all over her body.

That's a man!A man dressed as a woman!

Before Jiang Ran lifted the hijab, he had countless ideas. It might be some kind of monster inside, or it might just be a paper doll, but he never thought that a man would be revealed.

The man was wearing bright lipstick, and there were two lumps of rich blush on his cheeks. The way he applied the blush was really perfunctory, which made the two lumps of blush very uneven, one big and the other small.

The hijab was suddenly lifted by Jiang Ran, the man was very dissatisfied, he stood up and walked out.

He was quite tall, and when he stood up, his head rested on the top of the soft sedan chair, and the gold hairpins in his hair were entangled with his hair.

Jiang Ran hurriedly backed up to make way for the man, and hurriedly kicked over the pannier at his feet. He Shuting's head rolled out with an "ouch" and landed at the man's feet.

When He Shuting rolled, he rolled himself dizzily, "I only have this precious head left, can you be careful?"

The man who had just stepped out of the sedan chair saw He Shuting, his body stiffened for a moment, and he was stuck at the sedan chair door, as if he could neither enter nor exit.

He Shuting opened his eyes wide, turned his back up, met the man and exclaimed: "Chu Yi!"

When someone called out his name, the man froze again, and then, regardless of the tangled hairpins, he suddenly picked up He Shuting and confirmed again and again: "Little dumb?"

"It's me, it's me, I can talk!" He Shuting beamed with joy, the feeling of being held in the hands of his sweetheart is different.

Ke Chuyi looked at Jiang Ran and Yinjuan with anger on his face, and asked involuntarily, "You guys made him like this?"

"That's wrong." Jiang Ran raised his hand and put away Tongheng to show that he had no malice.

"Why don't you ask him?" Yinjuan said.

"Let me explain!" He Shuting couldn't stop talking, "Let me talk, let me talk!"

Chu Yi glared at them, then retracted into the sedan chair holding He Shuting's head.

After a long time, he understood all the past clearly. Chu Yi held He Shuting's head and came out of the sedan chair. He was polite and apologized to Jiang Ran and the others on the spot.

"So... why are you dressed like this and sitting in a sedan chair?"

Now it's Chu Yi's turn to explain Jiang Ran's confusion.

Chu Yi's attire even made him feel a little ashamed. He took off the red wedding dress, wiped off the rouge on his face, and explained to them what happened that night.

"Actually, during the worship, I felt that something was wrong. The paper bride who was visiting with me, separated by a red hijab, seemed to want to say something to me..."

Later, Chu Yi and the paper bride were sent into the bridal chamber together, next to the dragon and phoenix candle, Chu Yi drank two more glasses of wine, still thinking about He Shuting in his heart, he never expected that the paper bride suddenly appeared behind him, and grabbed him hand.

"I was taken aback at the time. Unexpectedly, the paper bride suddenly spoke and reminded me to run."

"I didn't know why she said that at the time, but looking at her expression, it seemed that she saw something extremely frightening. After that, I don't know what happened..."

After death, memory will be lost, so there are often some ghosts who don't know that they are actually dead and still treat themselves as living people.

He Shuting finally understood, "So you dressed up like this to find memories?"

Chu Yi nodded, "I tried many times but failed, so this time I want to use the paper doll's perspective to see what she is afraid of."

He Shuting let out a long sigh of relief, "Scared me, I thought you had some unknown quirks about women's clothing..."

Chu Yi, who had removed his makeup, turned a little blue. He really held a mouthful of resentment, which he couldn't swallow or spit out.

"Then what do you see from the perspective of the paper figurine?" Jiang Ran asked him.

Through the bloody mist, Chu Yi pointed to the sky with a horrified expression...
