The fog still filled the streets.
The woman with bangs hid somewhere and watched the scene of worship and marriage.
Doubts welled up inside.
Why didn't the Ghost Bride kill him?
Could it be that what those two said last night was actually true?
Last night.
She was abandoned and left on the street by those two people, she was scared and terrified, and out of her survival instincts, she also crawled into the ghost mansion and hid in a hidden place.
It was also because of this action that she overheard the words those two men were talking about.
--
“Don't forget that if we want to get out, we have to help the Ghost Bride fulfill her obsession so that she can successfully marry the Ghost Groom.”
“But there's no ghost groom at all right now?”
“We have this, and when the time comes, I'll pretend to be the Ghost Bridegroom-”
She peeked out quietly then and saw the man holding clothes in his arms.
It was folded groom's clothes.
She shrank back, and more than a little realization seemed to dawn in her expression.
These two had risked coming back here, so it was to get the groom's clothes.
So as to fulfill the ghost bride's obsession to escape from here.
She lowered her head and sneered, her hand unconsciously tore at the wound on her arm, causing the originally congealed blood to spill out again, and instead of feeling pain, the pain made her more awake than ever.
Men really were no good.
The two of them obviously had a way to escape from here, but why did they leave themselves alone?
It wasn't because they disliked themselves for being a burden.
She hid herself even more carefully, only revealing a pair of eyes, always watching them all the time.
After a long time, those two left.
She couldn't help but panic, but calmed down immediately afterward.
Because the Ghost Bride was here, those two would return sooner or later.
Thinking about this.
She once again nervously hemmed and hawed, slowly picking at the wound with her fingernails before tearing off shred after shred of meat and eating it into her mouth, savoring the look as if she was eating a mountain of delicacies.
She was really too hungry.
Hungry to the extreme.
She even regretted why she didn't cut off that old woman's meat, in which case she would have meat to eat.
After she ate a few bites of meat, her eyes stared eerily at her arm, which no longer had a single piece of good skin on it, and the pitted wounds made everything she had once caused to be proud of disappear.
Even if she escaped.
Her arm would never be as smooth and white as it used to be.
What was the point of her living.
She covered her face to stop crying in pain.
Since entering this horrible place, her life was all ruined.
She was passionate about helping people and would even love small animals, so why did she end up in such a miserable state.
Even her leg was broken by that man, and no one had said a word of justice for her from the beginning to the end.
She just wanted to live.
That's why she chose to sacrifice that old woman to preserve everyone, but in the end, no one appreciated herself, but instead wanted to make herself a scapegoat.
Footsteps seemed to come from the distance.
She raised her head.
Those two people had gotten food from somewhere and filled two large pockets, they were sitting there eating and drinking, even talking and laughing.
All without remembering themselves.
They also wanted to let themselves die here!!!!
In that instant, the last of her sanity collapsed.
Her face instantly became twisted, hatred burning her sanity as she could no longer hold back her hunger, burying her head and gnawing on her own flesh until she was full.
The flesh on her arms had already been gnawed away, leaving only white bones.
She didn't feel any pain at all, only the thought of revenge filled her mind.
She wasn't going to get out alive.
She wanted these two people dead !!!
--
Xia Le Tian glanced at Tang GuoFei, signaling him to continue shouting down.
Tang GuoFei nodded and shouted, “One bow to heaven and earth--”
Xia Le Tian stiffly bent over, and the ghost bride followed suit.
“He's not a ghost groom - he's a fake!!!” Sharp, mournful voices rang out from afar, suddenly cutting through the silent air.
Everyone at the banquet table turned their heads in unison, their eyes morose with a wry smile.
The woman with bangs instinctively stiffened her body, but the thought of vengeance instantly suppressed the fear, she desperately banged with her other hand, making a loud noise, shouting with a bang, “He's not a ghost groom, he's a fake!!!”
Stunned and then terrified emerged on Xia Le Tian's face.
Tang GuoFei's face was already white with fear as he looked towards the Ghost Bride.
The Qi Liu Hai woman looked at those two people's terrified and frightened expressions, infinite pleasure surged in her heart, her eyes maniacally shouted, “You can't escape !!!”
“You--you wicked woman!” Tang GuoFei's eyes were red with anger, itching to strangle the Qi Liu Hai woman.
Why had he been kind in the first place and left that food for her!
Qi Liu Hai woman was incomparably unrestrained, “It's all because of you guys, this is retribution!”
Now, all she needed to do was to see these two people die with her own eyes, and she would be satisfied!
There was no regret in dying!
The Ghost Bride's fingertips suddenly skyrocketed as she slowly raised her hand, seemingly wanting to take the cover off.
Cold sweat broke out on Xia Le Tian.
Oh no!
If she took the cover off, then he would inevitably be killed by the Ghost Bride.
He had to stop the Ghost Bride.
Xia Le Tian quickly grabbed the Ghost Bride's hand and pressed down hard, but not a moment later, the Ghost Bride's hand was still slowly lifting up, almost on the verge of touching the red cover.
Xia Le Tian had used all of his strength, but he still couldn't stop the Ghost Bride!
She was going to lift the restriction to kill!
Tang GuoFei angrily ah ah ah screamed, angrily cursing the Qi Liu Hai woman: ''Are you f*ck*ng sick? I won't let you go even if I die!”
If that woman hadn't interrupted all of this, they all could have escaped from here.
Now it's all over.
Despite being scolded, the woman with bangs was not angry at all, but instead laughed even more nervously, “Die - all of you die -”
Xia Le Tian's forehead was full of dense sweat, he realized that the arm wrestling approach with the Ghost Bride was not going to work, even though he had been a single dog for more than twenty years, it would be hard for these hands to match the power of the ghost.
The Ghost Bride's fingertips hooked onto the red head, slowly pulling it down, the smile at the corner of her mouth getting weirder and weirder, while her other hand slowly covered Xia Le Tian's chest.
Xia Le Tian's back went cold as he realized that the Ghost Bride would instantly dig out his heart as soon as she removed the cover.
No-
There had to be another way!
Tang GuoFei was naturally aware of this scene, he was so scared that he didn't even care, he copied the stick and struck at the Ghost Bride, “I'll beat you to death even before I die-”
The ghost bride's fingertips clawed through the wedding dress, and a diary snapped and fell to the ground.
Xia Le Tian instantly thought of something.
Tang GuoFei was currently flying over like a small cannonball, his mouth still ah ah ah ah screaming.
In the next second, a pair of familiar feet stretched out.
Tang GuoFei flew out with a face full of confusion and landed on the ground with a face full of shock, looking at Xia Le Tian with a face full of incredulity, seemingly as if to say Why did you kick me?
Xia Le Tian didn't have time to explain to Tang GuoFei, he no longer tried to arm wrestle with the Ghost Bride, but instead, he smoothly held the Ghost Bride's hand with both of his hands, and purposely suppressed his voice: “Xiao Bowls - don't take off the red cover okay?”
The Ghost Bride suddenly quieted down.
Xia Le Tian's heart was pounding, he didn't know if he was doing the right thing, but he was out of options, the only way he could stop the Ghost Bride from removing the red head was to pretend to be the young master in the diary.
On a certain page in the diary, there happened to be a mention that the young master would usually call the ghost bride Little Bowl.
Xia Le Tian's heart skipped a beat, and he continued, “I want to fulfill my promise to you, to take you as my wife and never leave you for the rest of my life, so that we can be a ghost couple.”
These were the words Xu Shuyang, in the diary, had once said to the ghost bride.
Xia Le Tian repeated these words word for word.
Hopefully, it would dissuade the Ghost Bride from the idea of removing the red head.
Although it was unknown if it would work.
The Ghost Bride remained motionless, her lowered head slowly raised, but the red head covered her eyes, making her unable to see the appearance of her beloved, she slowly raised her hand and tried to take off the red head.
Xia Le Tian cold sweat came out again, searching his brain to hurry up and think of another excuse, “Don't take it off, I ...... don't want you to see what I look like after I die, it's too ugly.”
Ghost bride does not seem to move again, but stood there quietly, staring deeply at the invisible lover through the red cover.
For a long, long time.
Xia Le Tian almost felt that the Ghost Bride seemed to have realized that she was not the Ghost Groom.
Qi Liu Hai female: “......”
Things seemed to develop differently than she had imagined.
The man actually coaxed the female ghost with sweet words, and Qi Liu Hai female was furious with anger: “Are you stupid! He's not a ghost groom ah !!!”
Xia Le Tian's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't wait to immediately seal Qi Liu Hai female's mouth.
It was not easy for him to stabilize the Ghost Bride.
But unexpectedly, the Ghost Bride remained motionless, just standing there, gazing deeply at Xia Le Tian through the red cover.
Xia Le Tian tried to keep the wedding going, “Little Bowl, let's continue with the wedding, okay? Never separate in life and death.”
He mentioned again the promise he made when the two were martyred.
Life after life.
Life after life.
These three words made the ghost bride quiet for a long time, it still smiled wryly, but two lines of blood tears slowly slid across its face and dripped down to the ground.
There was a loud snap.
All the people at the wedding banquet instantly fell to the ground as if they had lost control, as if they had no voice.
One drop, one drop continued to drip down.
The Ghost Bride's figure gradually became hazy and seemed to merge with the white mist, she reached out and pointed at the diary, and was finally completely swallowed by the white mist, never to be seen again.
Xia Le Tian picked up the diary and slowly turned to the last page.
There were a few lines of blood-red writing on the yellowed paper.
[ I know - you're not him.]
[ Help me tell him that I don't blame him, as long as he's good, I'm satisfied.]
[ Thank you... ]
Xia Le Tian stood there quietly until the vibration came from the cell phone in his coat pocket.
[ Smiling Bride ]
[ Category: Ghost World ]
[ Player “Pi Pi Xia” has successfully prevented the ghost world from expanding and completed the female ghost's obsession. ]
[ The reward has arrived, remember to check your account. ]
[ You have triggered the side quest: Message from the Ghost Bride. ]
[ Please help the Ghost Bride's words to her beloved. ]
[ Mission Reward: 10 ]
[ This task can be done or not. ]
Xia Le Tian's mood was incredibly complicated at the moment, and he had already understood the beginning and end of the matter.
In fact.
Ghost Bride's obsession was to marry Ghost Bride, and his approach was correct.
But due to the messing up of the Qi Liu female, it caused the Ghost Bride to realize that the person standing in front of her was not the Ghost Bridegroom.
But she didn't choose to kill herself in the end.
That was because she realized that the Ghost Bridegroom wasn't dead.
Or rather, she most likely knew it already.
It's just that her pre-birth obsession was to marry the ghost groom and be a ghost couple, and even after she died and became a ghost, this thought still drove her to keep catching people, and time and time again, she held a wedding that would never be realized.
But, no matter how strong the obsession was in life, it still couldn't outweigh the concern for the ghost groom.
Instead of hating the ghost groom for not martyring him as promised, the ghost bride worried that the ghost groom might feel guilty and blame himself for living alone.
This thought even suppressed that obsession.
The last thing she hoped for was simply that her beloved would be happy.
As for the rest, nothing else mattered.
