Chapter 117 The Bride’s Story

From the moment they came into contact with the curse of Longfengtie, whether it was Xun Xi, Chen Zhiyi, Chen Nan, or Gu Jiangliu, everyone agreed on one thing: that is, the ghost house is the home of the ghost bride. As grooms, their mission is to marry the ghost bride out of the ghost house.

In addition, the plaque hanging at the door of the haunted house also says [Gu Mansion].

The ghost bride’s name is also [Gu Sinian].

Taking all this into consideration, Xun Xi and others would naturally believe that the ghost bride came from the ghost house. The two are mutually exclusive and together form a supernatural being.

But what is the reality?

At the same time, the most important thing is that the ghost bride came first, and then the ghost house. Or was there the haunted house first, and then the ghost bride?

Xun Xi had always thought it was the former.

After all, the curse of Longfengtie is completely dominated by the ghost bride.

But now it seems that the answer to this question is probably the latter! The Ghost Bride was truly born after being forcibly trapped in the Ghost Mansion!

"She was the first person to enter the haunted house."

Only in this way can the hostile relationship between the ghost bride and the ghost house be explained. You must know that she helped him kill the young woman and the bridesmaid before. I thought it was a loving mother and a filial daughter, but now it seems that the two parties actually only have the same surname and no blood relationship at all.

Thinking of this, Xun Xi looked around the whole room again.

It was all speculation before.

He also needs evidence.

"The seventh room, the most important room, is actually empty? It's impossible. Even if the owner of the room dies, there should be a body left behind."

Xun Xi tried to rummage through it.

After a while, he found an invitation under the pillow of the bed in the room.

The style is almost identical to the dragon and phoenix invitation, but compared with the obvious supernatural power on the dragon and phoenix invitation, this invitation seems very ordinary.

The invitation seems to be for someone very close to me.

So there are no polite words above, just get to the point.

[Father, mother. 】

[Your grandson, my son is finally getting married this year. 】

[The prescription given by the wandering Taoist priest actually worked. I originally thought there was no hope, but I didn’t expect that he actually found a way for us. Thanks to him, my son was able to get married. It's a pity that he has left, otherwise I would really like to thank him in person. 】

[In addition, I have also found a candidate for your granddaughter-in-law. 】

[I found her at Grandma Wang’s place. Wang Po told me that she only wanted 800 taels. After paying enough as a bride price, I can take her home. 】

【I gave the money. 】

[She followed me back that same day. 】

[In order to make her fit the prescription given by Taoist You Fang, I changed her last name to Gu, so that she can meet the requirements of the prescription. 】

【Everything is ready. 】

[I will prepare for the wedding tomorrow, and I have locked the room. At the same time, he also ordered the maids and servants in the mansion not to allow anyone to find an opportunity to escape. 】

[Father, mother, when the wedding starts tomorrow, remember to come over. 】

[Also, don’t forget it. 】

[Take your grandchildren, take my son. 】

The invitation ends here. At first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong with the content, just some commonplace conversation, but it doesn’t stand up to in-depth study and scrutiny.

The first is the wandering Taoist priest.

What does marriage have to do with wandering Taoist priests? What recipe did he give? Aphrodisiac? But doesn't aphrodisiac have anything to do with changing the bride's surname to Gu?

Next is the bride.

Wang Po, eight hundred taels of bride price, took it home on the same day.

In addition, the invitation even stated clearly that the room should be locked and the servants should not let anyone find an opportunity to escape. It is obvious that this is not a formal marriage by a matchmaker. Combined with the ancient background of the ghost house, this is obviously more serious. It's like an extremely vicious form of human trafficking.

Finally, there is the groom.

It was clearly an invitation from the newlyweds, but at the end it was told that the invited "father" and "mother" should not forget to bring the groom when they came to attend.

Why?

".I see."

Xun Xi slightly tightened the invitation in his hand. Referring to the situation of grandpa and grandma in the haunted house, it is not difficult to guess the true meaning of these last few sentences.

In the haunted house, one of Grandpa and Grandma has only a spiritual body left, while the other is covered with corpse spots.

Could the person they brought here be a living person?

The groom is long dead.

"A bad habit from ancient times." Xun Xi took a deep breath and frowned: "In other words, this is a ritual. The wandering Taoist priest gave the specific arrangement of the ceremony, and the family in the ghost house I bought Gu Sinian from the black market and then held a ceremony."

Gu Sinian's resentment and the supernatural beings caused by the ritual.

The two situations were superimposed together, and a supernatural being like the Ghost Bride was born. But this probably wasn't the original intention of the Haunted House family.

What is their original intention?

"Let the dead bring back their sons."

"They...want to resurrect the dead!?"

Xun Xi's pupils suddenly shrank: "Yes. That should be the case. The person who wrote the invitation should be the young woman in the study. Her son died due to some accident. Just when she was despairing, a wandering Taoist priest appeared, and then Gave her a way to resurrect her dead son."

"It's probably one life for one."

Xun Xi quickly cleared his mind: "Use the ghost bride Gu Sinian's life in exchange for her son through the wedding ceremony, so that her son can be resurrected!"

"No wonder."

When I gave the ghost bride a photo of the young woman hiding, the ghost bride who was originally motionless even reached out and grabbed the photo.

Being able to kill enemies with her own hands shows how happy she is.

However, everything is not over yet. If the ultimate goal of the wedding ceremony is to resurrect the dead, then I am probably at this stage now.

The dragon and phoenix post said: [Let the groom pick up the bride. 】

I'm afraid this pick-up is not taking him out of the haunted house, but sending him to the underworld! So the last step of the wedding should be to put the ghost bride into a coffin and bury her alive!

What a wedding.

This is a funeral!

The so-called wedding of the bride and taking the bride away from the haunted house is actually a funeral! The ghost house wants to put the ghost bride in the coffin and bury it!

Even more than that.

".This is probably the last step of the ceremony."

"However, the family in the haunted house did not expect that Gu Sinian's resentment would cause her to transform into a supernatural being with the help of the ritual, thus preventing the ritual."

"In other words, the ceremony has been modified."

"The family in the haunted house wants the groom to be resurrected, so she wants him to be buried with her!"

"The two sides have entered into a kind of stalemate. The ghost bride keeps looking for the 'groom', and the ghost house is always stuck on the wedding day."

After leaving the room, Xun Xi returned outside the room.

When he saw Xun Xi coming out, Gu Jiangliu was the first to rush over, looking excited: "You finally came out! Did you find anything inside?"

Behind him was an angry Ye Chao.

"This guy is sick."

Looking at Xun Xi who was confused, Ye Chao said angrily: "As soon as you left, he became restless and asked me every ten seconds when you would be back."

Ye Chao's tone was quite depressed. After all, this feeling of not being trusted is not a good feeling. Although in terms of strength, he is undoubtedly stronger than Xun Xi. But the sense of security that Xun Xi gave people along the way, coupled with the grace of saving his life, made Gu Jiangliu completely ignore this.

"Leave me alone."

Gu Jiangliu had no shame at all about this. Instead, he replied confidently to Ye Chao, and then quickly shrank behind Xun Xi.

"okay."

Xun Xi could only smile when he saw this, and then changed the topic: "I have basically figured out the secret of this haunted house and the next steps."

Immediately afterwards, he told the information he had obtained.

"So next, we have to use that sedan chair to carry Gu Sinian's coffin and leave the haunted house."

"Is it necessary?"

Before he finished speaking, Ye Chao suddenly said: "Didn't the dragon and phoenix post say that the wedding is over? In this case, the curse of the dragon and phoenix post should also disappear. So now, you can leave completely, ghost I’m afraid neither the otaku nor the ghost bride will stop you.”

"But if the ceremony continues."

"Send the ghost bride's coffin out. According to the last step of the ceremony, she will be buried with someone! Who do you think she will be buried with?"

The answer is self-evident.

However, at this moment, Xun Xi could not help but think of the only words the ghost bride said to herself when she was in the boudoir before.

【leave. 】

She helped herself through other rooms and left this sentence for herself.

Is it necessary?

"It's necessary." After pondering for a moment, Xun Xi raised his head and smiled and said, "After all, I promised her that I will definitely marry her after passing the customs."

"Once a man has made his word, it is hard to follow him."

"What's the truth?" Ye Chao's expression remained unchanged.

"A woman's mouth is a liar, let alone a female ghost. I don't believe her lies. If I don't take her away, she will definitely come and take me away."
