I didn't intend to be a Fairy
Chapter 211 Thunderbolt on a Clear Night
"thanks for treatment."
"Are you two ready to eat?"
"Eat well, eat well." Song You said while taking out a small piece of silver from his bosom, "The host is warm, I don't eat and drink for nothing, it's just a gift money."
"this……"
The servant was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The villain has to ask the master."
After speaking, he turned and left.
After a while, the host came in a hurry.
"I have received Mr.'s wishes, but Mr. is an outsider. Today, I just passed by. I came here because of fate. However, please have a light meal and give me some water and food. I didn't bring some for Mr. It’s already rude for me to spend money, so how can I accept money from my husband?” The middle-aged man said to Song You, “If the two of you have finished eating, please ask Hong Er to take the two of you to the old house for a night. If what you hear and see are all local customs, please don't take offense."
"Then I would like to thank the master." Song You also took back the money, "It's just that I don't dare to bother the master anymore, we will find it by ourselves."
"Then how can it work?" said the middle-aged man, "It's pitch black outside, the road in the middle of the village is narrow and far away, and there is no one to guide the way. How can you find it? How do you know where it is?"
"It doesn't matter if you can't find it, just spend the night wherever you want." Song You looked at him, "I'm used to sleeping in the barren mountains along the way."
"It's fine if this is a barren mountain, but since you have already come here, how can you let you sleep in the open?" The middle-aged man said earnestly, "It won't take much effort, let Hong Er take the two of you there."
"Then thank you."
Song You didn't refuse anymore, and responded with a smile.
Then the servants led them out with lanterns.
When I passed by, I turned my head and glanced. The courtyard was already covered with lanterns, and the decoration was extremely festive. It was not much different from ordinary people getting married, except that there was a black coffin in the lobby, which was too conspicuous.
"Beware of the threshold."
The servant reminded them.
"Thank you."
Song You looked back and stepped out.
Retrieving the two horses, they walked out of the house, and they followed the servants through the dark village road.
This is the easternmost part of the village, and the abandoned old house is at the westernmost part of the village. The village is quite large, with winding roads extending in all directions. If there are no servants to guide the way, you might not be able to find it.
"arrive."
The servant pushed open the door of the house.
"Thank you."
"It has been unoccupied for too long, and there is some dust, do you need a villain to clean it?"
"No need."
"The little man will take his leave." The servant said, "The little man has to go back, so he took the lantern away, and the two of you should rest earlier."
"Go slowly."
Song You sent him off respectfully and politely.
As soon as the servant left with the lantern in hand, the place immediately returned to darkness, only the sky was full of stars.
However, Sanhuamao knew that people's eyes were not good, so it turned into a human and took its pony lantern and put it on the table.
"Hongyuan Haode Five Elements Supreme Huoyang God Wei Zhenjun, I am Sanhua Empress of Maoer Temple next to Fulong Temple on Yinyang Mountain, Lingquan County, Yizhou, please lend me a little firelight to light the lanterns."
"call……"
There was a little fire in the lantern.
The house is also illuminated by lights.
Looking at the house by light, it is indeed empty, with almost nothing, only shelter from the wind and rain.
"gentlemen……"
The gray-clothed swordsman looked at Song You: "Something is wrong."
"yes."
Song You also nodded.
The Ding family was genuinely enthusiastic, but they were a little cautious, as if they were deliberately hiding something.
Knowing that they refused to leave today and wanted to live in the village, they were brought from the east to the west of the house, fearing that there was something that they didn't want them to know.
"Maybe it's just a custom, and it's inconvenient for outsiders to see."
"Then we..."
"Go and see, too."
"good!"
The swordsman agreed.
The two of them and the cat were sitting in the house, and the two horses stood obediently outside. As the time got later and later, there was a sudden burst of firecrackers in the distance, vaguely absent.
"..."
Two people and one cat went out.
Walking in the direction where the sound came from, the sound of firecrackers became clearer and clearer, and then there was a burst of gongs and drums, which was quite festive.
The Taoist and the gray-clothed swordsman retreated to the side of the road, hiding in the night.
The stars were clear tonight, and there was a little mist on the ground. The sound of blowing in the distance became clearer and louder, and it was getting closer. Even the villagers in the houses behind the Taoist quietly opened the windows and looked outside.
I saw a group of welcoming teams slowly approaching.
At night, the light is dim, and when you are far away, you can only see a few lights and a group of figures. When you get closer, you can see the team of welcoming relatives clearly.
What a magnificent welcoming team.
There are a few followers in the front, holding the opening flag, followed by the opening gong, followed by those who blow the suona, those who carry the lantern, those who carry the basket, those who carry the box, and those who light the torch.
"I married a regular wife..."
The gray-clothed swordsman stared ahead, murmured softly, and suddenly frowned.
"No! The sedan chair?"
This kind of ghost marriage, if it is not a corpse, it should be a spirit card.
At this time, the welcoming team had already passed in front of them.
Faint whimpering could be heard from the sedan chair.
"..."
The gray-clothed swordsman looked back at Song You again.
Generally speaking, no one would use a living person to match a ghost marriage.
The reason why people in the world look for ghost marriages for their children is that apart from believing in Feng Shui and wanting to benefit the living, they also want their children to have a companion after death, so that they will not be alone. If you can use a living person to match the ghost marriage, you will not be able to achieve the latter goal, and you have to risk being cast aside by the world. Generally speaking, there are more special considerations.
Such a woman is a widow just by going through the door, and the future will usually not be too good.
In fact, ghost marriage is a meaningless thing. Some people think it is a bad habit, some people think it is not, but even princes and generals rarely use living people to match their dead sons with ghost marriage. It is meaningless and even more unacceptable in the world's etiquette, which is absolutely absurd.
It's just that these days, it's not easy to say.
Some people can't live on their own, and sell their children to others as slaves and handmaids. Selling them is a way of life. If you have to stop them, you will cut off their way of life.
However, the cries and whimpers in the sedan chair were full of despair, but it made people feel that things were not simple.
At this moment, there was another sound of collision in the sedan chair.
The sedan chair itself shook for a while.
Like someone is struggling inside.
"Boom..."
A figure knocked out of the sedan chair.
The welcoming team stopped suddenly, and the sound of blowing and beating also stagnated.
By the light of lanterns and torches, a woman in a bright red wedding dress could be seen falling out of the sedan chair. But she was tied up with ropes, unable to move at all, and even her mouth was blocked.
"Woo woo woo..."
The grey-clothed swordsman's expression froze for a moment, and his hand holding the long sword moved.
There is no doubt that if Song You hadn't been standing by his side, or if he hadn't been entertained by this family tonight, his sword would have been unsheathed at this time, and he didn't know how much blood would be splashed.
"The bride is falling..."
Someone up ahead shouted.
The bride was still whimpering and struggling, writhing on the ground like a worm, but two middle-aged men had already come over, grabbed her and stuffed her into the sedan chair again.
"Get up the sedan..."
Someone yelled again.
The sound of blowing and beating continued immediately, and the welcoming team started back on the road.
The Taoist and the swordsman stood still.
The swordsman was tangled in his thoughts.
The Taoist was listening to the movement in the room behind him.
Behind him is a thatched hut in the village, in which there lived a husband and wife, a Taoist, a swordsman and a cat standing against the wall by the window, the people in the house could not see the people outside the house through the window, only the team The welcoming team walked away slowly between whistling and beating, and then whispered in the room.
"How did the Ding family become so vicious? What a little lady, she dragged her to marry the dead! Sooner or later, she will be struck by lightning!"
"Didn't the Ding family die several times in a row before? I heard that they committed some feng shui taboo..."
"I haven't seen them so wicked before?"
"Who is more vicious than Boss Cao? My younger brother and sister just died, and the uncle sold his niece and daughter to the dead as wives. Who in this world has seen such a vicious thing?"
"So what if you don't sell it? Boss Cao can't afford to eat by himself, so is it possible that he can raise another little lady?"
"what do you know?"
The voice suddenly became smaller.
"I heard that the Ding family bought the young lady of the Cao family for a huge price! With such a high price, they are not intended to be a widow, but to be buried with their grandson!"
The expressions of the two people outside the house changed.
The swordsman was already furious.
It's just that although the swordsman is upright, he also has patience, and continues to stand outside the door and listen.
"ah?"
"Can I still lie to you? Otherwise, why do you think you have to tie up the young lady of the Cao family? The second Cao family was starved to death. Although the young lady of the Cao family married to the Ding family, although she was a wife for a dead person, she was still alive. You can afford to eat, how can you live better than before?"
"The Ding family isn't so wicked, is it?"
"I heard..."
The conversation between the two in the room became quieter.
The people outside also listened quietly.
After a while, there was no movement in the house.
"gentlemen……"
The swordsman lowered his voice and looked at the Taoist beside him.
"Go and see first."
Song You took a step forward and walked eastward.
The swordsman followed behind him holding a sword, and said in a deep voice: "This Ding family seems to be kind, but I didn't expect to do such a thing, it's against the law..."
"Naturally not."
"..."
The swordsman stopped talking, his eyes flickered, and he kept thinking.
Wanting to forget the previous hospitality, he raised his sword and looked over to see how unfair this place is, so that he can be happy, but he was afraid that he would not be able to kill all the hundreds of members of the Ding family. The little lady can't live anywhere. He wanted to be softer and save the little lady, but felt that he could neither persuade the Ding family nor settle the little lady well.
"Don't be impulsive."
A Taoist voice came from the front: "Go over and see if there is anything else strange about this matter."
"yes."
The grey-clothed swordsman really calmed down a bit.
Walk slowly back to the door of Ding's house.
I saw the Taoist pinch his finger, flicked his hand, and a stream of light flew into the sky.
"Boom!"
Suddenly there was a thunderstorm, and lightning illuminated the night sky.
However, the strange thing is that the night sky is very clear at this time, the sky is full of stars, and there is not a single cloud.
