Chapter 13 Martyrdom of the Beloved

Chapter 13 Martyrdom of the Beloved

Apr 07, 2025

  There was no light in the house, and Xia Le Tian and the others used their cell phone light to roughly sweep the room, their hearts relaxing slightly.

  There was nothing in the room that shouldn't be there.

  Several people began to search for clues, Xia Le Tian noticed that this room furniture than compared to other rooms to be a little inferior, even a dresser are not, only the bronze mirror placed on a somewhat worn table.

  It seemed like a place where an inferior lived.

  But the marvelous thing is that the jewelry box contains jewelry that seems to be worth a lot of money, gold and silver jewels are there, although there are not many.


If he remembers correctly, the east room seems to be where the eldest son lives, the second son lives in the west room, and the maid should live in the inverted seat room.

  “Alas? Old three you come over quickly.” Tang GuoFei suddenly spoke out.

  Xia Le Tian quickly closed the closet and swept his eyes at what Tang GuoFei handed over, it was a leather wrapped diary, the paper was a little yellowed and he didn't know how long it had existed.

  Tang GuoFei explained, “I found it from the cracks of that bed, it was hidden quite tightly.”

  Xia Le Tian frowned slightly, a diary that had been deliberately hidden?

  He asked Tang GuoFei to point the light of his cell phone at the diary, and then carefully flipped open the first page, the words on it were a bit crooked, and each stroke was written with extra force.

  It was as tender as the handwriting of a child of a few years old.

  --

  May 3rd, 35th year of the Republic of China.

  Today is my birthday. The eldest young master gave me a bracelet.

  The young master will marry me.

  --

  Xia Le Tian continued to turn the next page.

  --

  In the 36th year of the Republic of China, June 8th.

  I made wedding clothes for the young master and myself. The red wedding clothes were really beautiful, and the young master said that he would definitely marry me, and he also said that he would invite a lot of people to attend our wedding.

  I was so happy.

  --

  --

  July 12th, 36th year of the Republic of China.

  I can't marry the young master. Master told the young master to marry Miss Zhang.

  But it doesn't matter.

  The Young Master and I agreed to die together and never part in life.

  When we die, we can get married and be a ghost couple.

  No one can separate us.

  --

  Xia Le Tian roughly flipped through a few pages and basically already understood what happened.

  This maid is called Gao Xiao Bowls, that is, the ghost bride, she and the person called Xu Shu Yang love each other, but due to the status gap but was torn apart by the master, so martyred to agree to be a ghost couple after death.

  So the ghost bride's obsession is probably to get married to the young master.

  But the strange thing is, if the ghost bride becomes a ghost after death, then where did the young master go?

  And at this time, Xia Le Tian understood why that ghost groom was lying in the coffin.

  Because that person, most likely, had also read this diary, that's why he was thinking of impersonating the ghost groom and helping the ghost bride to complete this wedding, thus escaping from life.

  But, if this really worked, then why did the last ghost groom die?

  Xia Le Tian closed the diary with a grave expression, at this moment, there were still ten minutes to go before 12:00 midnight, he took Tang GuoFei and the others out of the east room, ready to leave this place.

  But when Xia Le Tian returned to the vestibule, his mind unconsciously thought of the ghost groom, his footsteps slightly lurched as he said to Tang GuoFei and the others, “You guys stand guard here, if the ghost bride comes back hurry up and inform me.”

  “Then where are you going?” Tang GuoFei said worriedly.

  Xia Le Tian said, “I'm going to find the ghost groom to confirm something, it's very important, it's about whether we can survive or not.”

  Tang GuoFei couldn't say anything to stop him at once, turning his head to Zhang QiaoMing and the others, “You guys hide first and help us keep an eye on things, I'll go in with LaoSan.”

  Zhang QiaoMing nodded and hurriedly hid with the others.

  The ghost groom in the coffin was still lying, diligently playing the role of a real corpse.

  Xia Le Tian knocked on the coffin, “Can you tell me something?”

  The ghost groom in the coffin remained motionless.

  Xia Le Tian smiled, “I see that your face doesn't seem to be very swollen, do you want me to ......”

  The person in the coffin abruptly opened his eyes and sat up with a rather complicated expression, “What do you want to ask?”

  Xia Le Tian also stopped scaring him, “Why was the last ghost groom killed by the ghost bride?”

  According to reason, the method of pretending to be a ghost groom was not desirable, but this person knew that pretending to be a ghost groom would be killed by the ghost bride, but still adopted this method.

  There was bound to be a reason for this that Xia Le Tian did not know about.

  The ghost groom seemed to look at Xia Le Tian seriously before he said, “The last ghost groom took on the identity of a living person and paid his respects to the ghost bride, so I think that's why he would be killed.”

  Xia Le Tian was puzzled.

  This person's conjecture didn't seem impossible.

  “Then what are you going to do next? You have to understand that if your approach is wrong ......,” Xia Le Tian looked at Ghost Shinko with no optimism.

  Ghost Xin Lang laid back again, “I have my own way to deal with her.”

  The other party seemed to have quite a bottom line.

  Xia Le Tian took a serious look at Ghost Xin Lang, and seemed more and more certain about his identity.

  This person, there was a high probability that he was also a death game player.

  “Then I wish you success.” Xia Le Tian signaled with his eyes that it was time for Tang GuoFei to leave, Tang GuoFei nodded knowingly.

  Before leaving, a flash of red flashed in his afterglow, it was the red cover of the ghost bride.

  And at that moment.

  White mist seemed to gradually emerge from the surrounding neighborhood.

  Did it mean that the ghost bride was going back to the ghost mansion?

  Xia Le Tian's face changed slightly, and after rejoining Zhang QiaoMing and the others, “Let's hurry and get out of here.”

  Tang GuoFei and the others were appalled as they followed Xia Le Tian to leave the ghost mansion.

  But when they were just about to step out of the threshold of the haunted mansion, they heard the sounds of blowing suona and banging gongs coming from outside the door.

  A dense white mist sprang up around them, revealing the figure of a red sedan chair in the distance, swaying and approaching towards the door.

  Xia Le Tian sweated and immediately retreated back inside the haunted mansion.

  Tang GuoFei's legs were going soft, “ Old Three, we're going to die here, aren't we?”

  Although he wasn't smart, he knew that the ghost bride would go on a killing spree at 12 midnight.

  Now they couldn't even get out of the door, as long as that ghost bride came in, she would definitely find them hiding here.

  Xia Le Tian made a shushing motion, not letting them make any sound, who knows if those ghosts are exceptionally sensitive in hearing.

  Then a few people immediately found a hiding place, not daring to breathe a single breath.

  They did have the intention to hide a little deeper, but it was already too late.

  The ghost bride had already arrived at the door, the sedan chair landed on the ground, the ghost bride was full of wry smiles, almost in a floating state stepping into the ghost mansion, the paper man also hung a big smile in the same way, bouncing and jumping around the ghost bride's side.

  Creating a lively and festive atmosphere.

  But in Xia Le Tian and other people's eyes, this is clearly weird and creepy.

  Not the slightest feeling of any festivity.

  But immediately after, the white fog out of many people, men and women, they seem to be invisible hanging line manipulation, hanging head step neatly toward the front.

  Hanging head can be vaguely seen at the corners of the mouth is still hanging wry smile.

  The horror of female ghosts seemed to be on full display at this moment.

  In the white mist, many more tables and chairs draped in red cloth appeared in the front court yard, and after everyone took their seats, they remained motionless with their heads hanging down.

  Tang GuoFei was so scared that he wanted to pee, but he didn't dare to move because the surroundings were just too quiet, so quiet that he had to suspect that the ghosts could hear his own heartbeat.

  The ghost bride stood there motionless in a red wedding dress with a wry smile.

  Until the shrill voice of a certain paper man rang out, “The auspicious time has come--!”

  The people with their heads hanging down abruptly raised their heads and stared at the Ghost Bride with stupefied faces, the smile at the corners of their mouths getting weirder and weirder.

  Keeping this eerie atmosphere lasted for a few seconds, the paper people, as if they had gotten some order, entered the house to fish out the groom in the coffin, driving him to the front of the ghost bride and standing still.

  The ghost groom's eyes were closed, his face was covered with thick white powder, and there was a reddish tint on both sides of his cheekbones, making it almost impossible to distinguish his original appearance.

  The ghost bride stared straight at the ghost groom, the smile on her lips became more and more bizarre, and then slowly approached the ghost groom.

  Although the ghost groom closed his eyes, but can feel a cold air close, his back gradually broke out in a cold sweat.

  Xia Le Tian had to admire the ghost groom's psychological quality at this time.

  The Ghost Bride was almost touching the Ghost Groom's face.

  The ghost groom subconsciously held his breath, and his hand hidden under his sleeve moved, but he still forced himself to maintain his composure.

  Hopefully, his guess was correct.

  And just then, the paper man's eerie voice rang out, “One bow to heaven and earth-”

  The Ghost Bridegroom's heart instantly sighed in relief, it seemed that his method of disguising himself as a dead man was correct.

  But the ghost bride stared straight at the ghost groom for a second, and suddenly let out an incomparably sharp voice: “You are not him !!!!”

  The Ghost Bride's fingernails suddenly became longer and attacked the Ghost Shinsenguang straight on.

  Right at the moment she attacked, the unseen rules seemed to be broken, and all the people assimilated by the Ghost Bride fell to the ground with their bodies askew like sheared kites.

  And those paper people, too, instantly transformed into ordinary paper people and fell to the ground.

  When the Ghost Bride's fingertips just touched the Ghost Bride's body, a burst of light lit up from the Ghost Bride's body, the Ghost Bride's attack was ineffective, the Ghost Bride's eyes opened and immediately pulled out a talisman and threw it out.

  The talisman exploded, the Ghost Bride screamed miserably, a thick white mist surged out from her body, and she seemed to have become even more horrifying, “You're not him!!!”

  The Ghost Bridegroom took a few steps back with a face full of horror and immediately turned around and ran.

  The Ghost Bride smiled wryly as she went after the Ghost Groom...

  Tang GuoFei and the others s*ck*d in their breath and dared not move even more.

  Even though the female ghost had already left.

  Xia Le Tian narrowed his eyes and looked at the female ghost's far away figure, I don't know if it's an illusion, that ghost bride's speed seems to have slowed down, her current speed can only be said to be about the same as most women.

  Could it be that ...... this is the price of the Ghost Bride lifting the killing restriction?

  However, although the Ghost Bride was still essentially a ghost, she most likely didn't know fatigue, and as long as she kept chasing after her like this, she would definitely kill that Ghost Bridegroom.

  Once that ghost groom who was tasked with pulling the monster on his shoulders died, then the ghost bride would start killing them next.

  Xia Le Tian's brain raced.

  The last ghost groom died because he didn't disguise himself as a dead man and was killed by the ghosts who recognized his identity at the moment of worship.

  And what about this time.

  This man was disguised as a dead man, and the entire process didn't seem to have been detected as wrong by the ghosts.

  But the female ghost still went on a killing spree.

  What was the reason?

  He closed his eyes and carefully recalled the scene that had just happened.

  At that time, when the paper man shouted one bow to heaven and earth, the whole process was going perfectly, except for the female ghost ......

  She was acting very strangely at that time.

  She had been staring at the ghost groom, and the tip of her nose was even touching the ghost groom s face.

  Could it be that ...... she was recognizing whether the ghost groom was a living person or not?

  Not right.

  Not right ......

  If that was the case, why did that female ghost stare at the ghost groom for a long time before she suddenly changed her face and shouted out that 'You're not him!!!'

  And in a very certain tone.

  And so on!

  Staring at the ghost groom for a long time?

  Xia Le Tian suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something.

  That ghost groom had purposely painted his face with thick white powder and a reddish tint in order to not be discovered by the ghosts, making it impossible to recognize his original appearance.

  That was why the female ghost kept staring at the ghost groom.

  Until she recognized the ghost groom, not the lover who had been martyred with her.

  That's why she went on a killing spree.

  Does this mean that ...... the last ghost groom who died was not killed because the identity of the living person was recognized, but because it triggered the ghost killing opportunity.

  What the female ghost wants most is already written very clearly in the diary, she wants to be married to the person named Xu Shu Yang, rather than wanting a wedding.

  But here's the problem.

  Where the hell did Xu Shu Yang go?
