The mighty send-off team set off from the entrance of Liujia Village, and the sound of suona, gongs and drums along the way was very lively.

Zhang Yang, Zhou Fang and the others put on red clothes and acted as bearers, guarding next to Song Xiaoxiao's sedan chair, while Ru Sang and Wei Qing hid in the middle of the road, waiting for an opportunity to move.

The send-off team needs to go through a dense forest and walk several miles to reach the in-laws' town.

Fortunately, although the journey is not short, it takes more than half a day to get there, otherwise, other people in the sending team would not dare to take up the job.

There have been a lot of weird things recently, who would dare to get into trouble? If it weren't for the generous rewards, no one would be willing to take on the job of seeing off relatives.

Wei Qing and Ru Sang hid in the dense forest, marched with the team, and also paid attention to the situation in the forest.

Judging from the previous incidents, there are usually changes in the middle of the road section, and this time is no exception.

The wedding procession stopped for a rest halfway, the sedan chair was put down, the porters gathered together to drink water and chat, and the beating gongs and drums also joined them, interjecting a few words from time to time.

In short, everyone huddled together, for fear of being alone and being targeted by ghosts that appeared suddenly.

The master and apprentice squatting on the branch and looking down silently glanced around and looked at each other, feeling a ghostly aura.

Zhang Yang, who was chatting and laughing happily with other bearers, changed his expression slightly. He glanced at Zhou Fang, and the two of them looked a little solemn.

The bride, who was hiding in the sedan chair and eating melon seeds, stopped knocking the melon seeds, and grabbed a handful of melon seed shells in her palm, staring at the car curtain.

Being on a high place can see the whole situation more clearly. Looking into the distance, Ru Sang saw a mass of dark ghostly aura moving quickly towards the sedan chair, stirring the wind to shake the trees and blowing up a field of sand.

The ghostly aura is mixed with strong resentment and desire/desire, and it is known to be a powerful character without careful study.

And in the ghostly aura, one can vaguely see the first one standing seven feet long, who is suspected to be the leader, and there are two rows of little ghosts behind him, at first glance it looks like they are here to welcome their relatives.

This was what Ru Sang saw in her eyes, and it became clearer in the eyes of Wei Qing, who had a higher level of cultivation.

He could see that the leading ghost was wearing a red robe, obviously the attire of a bridegroom official, and the little ghost behind him was beating gongs and drums, just like the ones welcoming the bride.

Yo, it's actually a welcoming team made up of little ghosts.

Of course, these ghost qi, including the things in the ghost qi, can only be seen by those who practice Taoism. To ordinary people, they still see the green mountains and green forests in front of them, but they will feel a little cool after a short rest.

This was the effect of the ghost energy passing by. It was obvious that the team's target was only the bride in the sedan chair, and the others were not harmed.

Wei Qing stared at the team getting closer to the resting place until it stopped in front of the sedan chair.

The head of the male ghost dressed as the groom's official asked the little ghost behind him to put down the accompanying sedan chair, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the sedan chair in the procession of seeing off the bride.

Zhang Yang and Zhou Fang watched helplessly as the cloud of black air was getting closer and closer to the sedan chair, but other than the two of them, everyone turned a blind eye to it.

After all they couldn't see anything, no wonder the rumors that the bride disappeared inexplicably.

They had set up traps around the sedan chair in advance, and they were just waiting for the ghost to get in. At this time, they behaved very naturally.

Zhang Yang just glanced at the sedan chair before continuing to talk about the mountains with the people around him, while Zhou Fang silently lowered his head to maintain his image of a seldom-talking and simple bearer.

Everything is the same as the previous couples seeing off relatives.

The ghost groom didn't notice anything wrong, he approached the sedan chair with a dull smile, and stopped suddenly a few steps away.

"Oops, he found out." Wei Qing, who was staring at the object's movements, raised his eyebrows, jumped off the tree immediately, and jumped towards the ghost groom who returned immediately.

Ru Sang reacted and followed closely, but when he arrived in front of the sedan chair, he only stared at Zhou and Zhang who also rushed over.

"Uh... Brother Zhang, what's going on?"

The men who were resting on the spot gathered around, very confused about the identity of the guy who suddenly appeared.

Zhang Yang gave a dry laugh, and before he could explain, he heard the movement of the car curtain being raised and the roar of a certain senior sister——

"Fuck, what's going on, you ran away after you got to the sedan chair?"

Wei Qing ran for more than ten miles in pursuit of the ghostly aura, and finally stopped in front of a farmer's house.

On the way, the ghost bridegroom drove countless little ghosts to obstruct him. The little ghosts mixed with resentment and desire are not difficult to deal with, but they are difficult to deal with.

This ghostly aura is really powerful, and when he traced it up to this point, he suddenly broke the clue - the ghostly aura disappeared.

Farmers... a little weird.

Wei Qing wandered around this place but did not find any clues. Suddenly, he heard a melodious female singing voice not far away.

"Hey, who are you, the Taoist leader?" The woman in clothes with a wooden basin turned out from behind the tree, and was startled by the sudden appearance of a young boy.

A group of people who returned in vain turned back to Liujia Village, Zhang Yang spent money to dismiss the confused members of the send-off team, and closed the gate to discuss internally.

Old Village Chief Liu saw that they were afraid to ask more questions, so he quickly pushed back the crowd and explained.

Zhang Yang glanced out the window, and after he left, he gestured "no problem" to the other three people in the room.

The four sat around the table, and Song Xiaoxiao spoke first: "Why did that ghost thing suddenly run away?"

"Tsk, maybe that ghost bridegroom will regret it when he finds out that you are too ugly!" Zhang Yang said angrily.

"Nonsense, he didn't approach at all, how can he know what kind of people are in the sedan chair?" Song Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes, expressing that she didn't want to talk to the gangster.

"It should be that he discovered the trap we set up." Ru Sang interrupted the dispute between the two and said suddenly, "Ghost groom is not easy."

The three of them were silent. They had never missed the ghost-hunting formation set up by Tiandaozong against sneaky things, but this time they let the opponent run away without even hitting their faces.

"This shows that the ghost groom is likely to have a certain degree of sanity and self-awareness." Ru Sang said slowly.

Indeed, if ordinary ghosts have the ability to perceive danger but have no awareness of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, they will not voluntarily avoid danger.

Only when ghosts have the same thinking ability as humans, will they make choices that are beneficial to themselves, such as leaving, in the face of danger.

"Zhou Fang, what are your thoughts?" Ru Sang looked at the taciturn Junior Brother Zhou and asked.

The honest and honest Junior Brother Zhou slowly raised his head, glanced at the three people who were looking at him, and said, "Junior Brother Wei hasn't come back yet."

Waiting for the wise Ru Sang to smile coyly, he wasn't worried about what would happen to the master, but the three of them didn't know.

Looking at the other two who were looking at him worriedly, Ru Sang was about to say "it's okay" when she heard the door being pushed open.

The four of them looked at the door in unison, and the small figure of the young man grew taller inexplicably against the backlight.

"Come with me." Wei Qing had been in a high position for a long time, and Wei Qing unconsciously carried a commanding tone.

Fortunately, the other three people were all focused on the matter, and Ru Sang just smiled dotingly, and followed the little man to the courtyard of the village chief's house.

At the stone table in the middle of the yard sat a woman in a coarse cloth dress.

The woman was very nervous, she kept her head down, her fingers were stirring the trim of the clothes, and she stood up suddenly when they approached.

"Hello, everyone!" After the woman stammered, she looked at Wei Qing nervously, who gave him a comforting smile.

"Hey, junior brother, you showed us this big sister." Song Xiaoxiao was puzzled.

Ru Sang was also confused, and looked to Master for an answer. The Master nodded and motioned them to sit down on the stone bench.

"Niang Ruan, can you tell me the story you told me earlier?"

The soft and sticky voice of the young man easily won the favor of the woman, and Ruan Niang, who had calmed down, immediately listened to his words and narrated a part of her life experience to the four of them.

"My name is Ruan Congyu, and everyone calls me Ruan Niang. I used to be a member of the Liu Family Village. I was engaged to Mr. Li Family in Baihe Town when I was a child, until I was twenty-eight..."

A dusty past was revealed, and Ruan Niang's past was unfolded in front of everyone.

Seven years ago, the twenty-eight-year-old young woman finally had a happy day with her childhood sweetheart.

On the day of seeing off the bride, the red makeup was very bright, and the girl in red dress was beaming with joy, stepped on the sedan chair, and headed for her husband's house.

Passing through the dense forest outside Liujia Village, bandits suddenly attacked while the team was resting. Just like the stories in countless story books, the beautiful bride was kidnapped by the bandit leader and took it for himself.

Ruan Niang is a woman with a strong mind, she is submissive and at the same time does not forget to look for opportunities to escape, and at the same time inquires about her fiancé.

It turned out that the bandits hijacked the bridegroom's party first that day, and after killing and stealing the money, they thought that there must be a sending team ahead, so they planned to do another.

"...After knowing this, I felt sad in my heart, endured the humiliation and served that dog thief, and finally killed him while he was not paying attention, and ran out."

When Ruan Niang said this, her expression was still somewhat sad, but after all, after a few years, her emotions did not get too out of control.

"After I escaped, I had nowhere to go. My natal family didn't recognize me, and my husband's family didn't want me, so I built a few thatched huts at the junction of Liujia Village and Baihe Town to live in." Ruan Niang's emotions had calmed down when she said this.

"Although the past few years have been miserable, I don't feel lonely with Hu'er by my side." Ruan Niang smiled, her face was filled with the radiance of a loving mother.

Hu'er was a child she picked up by the river, and she hadn't found his biological parents for several years, so Ruan Niang simply raised him by herself.

After hearing these words, Song Xiaoxiao's eyes were full of tears. As a woman, she was too sympathetic to the pain of being separated from the one she loved.

"Thank you Ruan Niang for telling us this, thank you for walking with me." Wei Qing smiled, and the soft and cute look made the woman couldn't help touching his cheek.

Ru Sang held his breath watching, God, he really wanted to squeeze it.

It was late, Wei Qing asked the village chief to arrange a place for Ruan Niang to stay temporarily, and then took everyone to hide in the house for a small meeting.

"Have you had any other thoughts after hearing that story?" he asked.

Song Xiaoxiao held her face and murmured: "It's so miserable, it's such a sad story, woo woo woo."

The remaining four people: ...

"Hey, serious discussion." Ru Sang glanced at the master with the black line on his forehead, and quickly changed the subject.

"My idea is that the son of the Li family that Ruan Niang is talking about may be the ghost bridegroom." Ru Sang boldly guessed.

Song Xiaoxiao stared wide-eyed: "But Mr. Li's death was already seven years ago, it doesn't make sense to come out recently."

After she finished speaking, everyone was silent, which made some sense.

Wei Qing played with the teacup in his hand, and said slowly: "Have you forgotten that this ghost groom has a certain amount of wisdom?"

"After death, the soul leaves the body, and it is not immediately possible to transform into a ghost."
