"Holy crap, is this outrageous?!"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but shrink back. This was fucking terrifying!

This custom is appalling!

"We've heard about Uncle Chen's custom before; it even made the news before, the kind that Uncle Dao talked about!"

Under the guise of a wedding night riot, they would then devise ways to attack the groom, and even if they ended up killing him, the entire village would simply let it go!

Ji Xinglan spoke slightly and gave me an explanation.

Now I finally understand what the phrase "the human heart is treacherous" really means.

This isn't just simple wickedness, it's fucking wickedness!

I have reason to suspect that this custom was likely invented by someone's enemy with the purpose of taking revenge.

Just as we were talking, Lao Dao pulled me along, and I took Ji Xinglan with me as we left the hall to join Luo Tianhe in making a ruckus at the wedding night.

Ji Xinglan quickly put the booklet into her sleeve. This booklet was of utmost importance; no matter what happened, she absolutely could not lose it.

Our journey was relatively smooth; we just followed the group.

Because I was worried about something going wrong, I walked very fast, and I met Lin Da in about two minutes.

"Is Master Lin also going to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber? That's right, it's Master Lin's duty! Do a good job! Our son-in-law will thank you!"

After Lin Da saw me, he exchanged a few pleasantries with me, then patted my shoulder and said some inexplicable things.

I was going to ask Lin Da if he wanted to come with us, but Lin Da shook his head and said he had more important things to do and told us to hurry up and go.

Without much thought, I led Ji Xinglan and the others to Luo Tianhe's bridal chamber.

To be honest, this wedding room is much more magnificent and grand than the small woodshed we saw before.

That little side room was really shabby; apart from a bed and a table, there was nothing of value there.

This new house, just from the outside, looks like the kind of house only a wealthy family would have.

The door is wide open, and you can see that the interior is really well decorated.

The room had all the necessary furniture, and the whole room exuded a strange festive atmosphere.

And now I keep recalling what Lin Da said earlier.

What does it mean that I have my own responsibilities?

"Uncle Chen, do you and the groom have a particularly good relationship?"

Ji Xinglan suddenly asked a question, and when talking about their relationship, she used the word "special" twice.

I said that's natural, we've been through thick and thin together.

Ji Xinglan nodded slightly and said, "No wonder."

I quickly asked Ji Xinglan what she meant, and Ji Xinglan began to explain to me: "Brother Chen, it is very likely that your duty is to protect the groom!"

After Ji Xinglan finished speaking, I frowned slightly, but my thoughts quickly cleared up.

"You mean to say that there's a good chance some of the groom's enemies might have infiltrated the wedding banquet today, and then they might take this opportunity to kill him?"

I understood what Ji Xinglan meant and immediately felt a chill run down my spine.

If that's the case, then it's outrageous.

"That's right. Based on the contents of this booklet and what Uncle Dao said, I feel that this is the closest thing to the truth!"

Ji Xinglan also nodded vigorously with a serious expression.

As for the two girls behind Ji Xinglan, they didn't say anything. They've learned to be quite obedient now, and all they know is to follow us.

"When Old Knife Ant goes in later, we need to keep a close eye on things. If anyone really tries to harm Old Luo, we'll have to protect him!"

I turned around and gave Old Knife and Ant some more instructions.

I've been pondering what Ji Xinglan said in my mind, and the more I think about it, the more sense it makes.

The booklet also clearly implies that you should follow your heart! And what is your heart? It's to protect Luo Tianhe!

"Don't worry, Brother Chen, you can trust us to handle things. Besides, this matter is about Brother Luo!"

Ant and Old Knife patted their chests and guaranteed it.

And so, we quickly arrived at the groom's room. Just as we had expected, before the groom even lifted his veil, we carried him to the bed.

I don't know which unlucky thing pulled out a rope from its waist.

Several people took turns tying Luo Tianhe to the bed.

Two more guests took out brooms from the corner.

This situation looks too much to me. This isn't a wedding celebration at all; this is practically a beating to death.

That broom handle was at least as thick as my forearm. If it were swung around and hit Luo Tianhe on the head, it could knock his head off.

Old Luo is shouting for help repeatedly, it's hard to tell if he's joking or what.

"Wait! Uncle, this thing has been updated again!" Just as I was about to go up, Ji Xinglan spoke up again, stopping me and telling me that there was new content about this thing.

I quickly stopped and looked back at Ji Xinglan, who then began to explain the contents of the document to me.

"They said we need the groom's tears. Only if we get the groom's tears will we have a glimmer of hope! This time the font is orange!"

Ji Xinglan opened the booklet and read its contents to me and Lao Dao.

I fell silent after hearing this. Did the groom need to shed tears?

So, were those tears from crying or did they remind the groom of something sad?

"Would Brother Chen need us to go up and beat Brother Luo until he cries, and then figure out a way to rescue him?"

Old Dao's mind always works the fastest. After hearing this, he quickly leaned close to my ear and asked me a question.

My mouth twitched. This kid is really something else, he dares to think like that. If he beats Luo Tianhe to tears, that's one thing, but if he doesn't, he might actually beat him to death.

"Forget it, let's go up and fight too. Anyway, the three of us are practically brothers with Lao Luo!"

I watched as those people ran to the front to fight one by one, and I gritted my teeth and decided to join them.

At least when brothers fight, they know their limits.

Before I could even get there, one of the guests in front of me started fighting.

He took a feather duster and used the thin stick to whip Luo Tianhe's arm, causing Luo Tianhe to wince in pain.

Even from a distance, I could feel the immense pain.

Old Knife, Ant, and I exchanged glances, then each picked up our tools and went to Luo Tianhe's side to begin whipping him.

At that moment, Luo Tianhe actually managed to squeeze out a few tears.

Then she burst into tears.

I was about to stop whipping, but then I remembered the consistent principle here.

Here, if you leave behind anything extra, you must find a way to pocket it.

I quickly asked Lao Dao to bring out a small bottle, and I carefully put the tears into the bottle.
