Chapter 53: Becoming Husband and Wife
There was a moment of silence in the ancestral hall.
Because they were close, Jian Yue finally saw her face clearly. It was always blurry before because of her hair. Now that he could see it clearly, he finally said, "It is you."
He had guessed this before, but he didn't expect it to be true.
The female ghost glared at him fiercely without saying a word.
"To be honest, if you have any ideas or want me to do something, why don't you just tell me that you are my mother-in-law? Why would I not agree?" Jian Yue said.
These words seemed to have touched her lungs, and the ghost asked excitedly: "Who is your mother-in-law!"
Jian Yue sighed and said, "Okay, I can just call you grandma."
Female ghost: “…”
Does she mind this?!
The audience in the live broadcast room also had fun:
“That’s not wrong.”
"Just tell me if this is the case."
“We are all family!”
Tiantian and Li Meng behind were also shocked.
Even just now, Tiantian almost couldn't help wanting to pull Jian Yue to escape together. Who would have thought that at the critical moment, Jian Yue was saved because he was the son-in-law of the female ghost!
wrong……
Is this the CEO's mother?!
The female ghost seemed to be very angry, and perhaps she suddenly wanted to kill someone to silence him. She suddenly rushed over and seemed to want to tear Jian Yue's face apart.
Jian Yue said: "You have been planning for so long, even though your plan is a mess, but even if you have no credit, you have worked hard. For this reason, I will tell you one more thing. Ji Feng should not be dead."
This time the female ghost was really stuck halfway, and even because of the force, she hit the pillar behind her, making a heavy muffled sound.
Jian Yue quickly held her back and said, "Madam, please be gentle. You are so angry that you are sick and you still need the young master to take care of you!"
Female ghost: “…”
The other two people also fell silent. Butler Wang really was in control of the family finances.
The female ghost was too lazy to argue with Jian Yue now. She said in a hoarse voice with a chill in her voice, "Impossible."
Jian Yue said: "Why is it impossible?"
"He's cursed... He can't leave the mountains for the rest of his life." The ghost girl said slowly, "If he was in the village, I would know about it."
It turns out that this group of people cannot leave the mountains.
Jian Yue seemed to have understood a point of knowledge. Sure enough, the system also updated the panel: "The plot of the main quest [The Secret of Wanfu Village] has been updated to 94%. Keep up the good work!"
"Then why were you able to leave?" Jian Yue asked, "Didn't you leave the mountains and give birth to a child?"
The female ghost smiled eerily and said, "I have my own way to suppress the curse."
But she refused to say.
Jian Yue was not in a hurry. He said, "There is one thing I want to tell you. I know where Ji Feng is, and I can find him for you. Since he has let you down and cursed me, I have no reason to cover for him, but you must tell me one thing."
The female ghost was indeed anxious. She asked, "What's the matter?"
"Is Shen Yushu your son? Why does his name appear on the plaque in the ancestral hall?" Jian Yue's eyes were deep. He asked, "Also, if he is cursed, will it be dangerous for him?"
The female ghost looked at Jian Yue with some surprise. After a long while, she smiled sullenly and said, "Do you actually really like that weird kid?"
Jian Yue was really a little angry. He said, "Whether I am sincere or not is not up to you to say. You just need to answer my question!"
The female ghost said: "I can tell you, but they can't be here."
Refers to Tiantian and Li Meng.
Just when Jian Yue was about to speak, Tiantian, the timid girl, suddenly stepped forward and said, "I know you are very powerful. I want to ask, can your dead people be resurrected? If so, my boyfriend is also dead, can he..."
The female ghost sneered and said, "A dead person is dead. Even if he is resurrected, he is not alive. If you can accept that he will become a monster that is neither human nor ghost, he will lose his mind and kill people. Then there is a way to resurrect him."
After she finished speaking, Tiantian fell silent.
Jian Yue stood by without saying anything. This was Tiantian's own choice and he had no right to stop her.
Tiantian must love her boyfriend very much. This decision must be very difficult for her. After a moment of silence, she pursed her lips and finally said slowly: "Forget it."
"I'm not afraid that he will become a monster." Tiantian's eyes turned red, and she said, "I just don't want him to suffer."
Li Meng held Tiantian's hand and said, "I believe he will understand you, and we are drawn into this world. This world has so many magical abilities. Maybe one day, we can find other ways."
In the nightmare world, it gives people despair as well as hope.
Tiantian nodded and said, "Butler Wang, let's go first. Can you really do it alone?"
Jian Yue said: "It's okay, you guys go ahead, this is my mother-in-law, what can she do to me?"
Tiantian and the other person: "..."
They often seem out of tune with Butler Wang because of their lack of experience.
Tiantian walked to Li Meng's side, held her hand and said, "I want to fly, I want to fly, I want to fly higher!"
After a flash of light, the two people disappeared.
After they left, Jian Yue lowered his eyes and looked at her and said, "Okay, you can talk now."
The female ghost said: "He is not my son."
After she finished speaking, she waited for Jian Yue to show a surprised expression.
Jian Yue said: "Oh, I guessed it."
The ghost girl was silent for a moment, and finally said slowly: "As for his origins, I can't tell you, but I can only say that he returned to Wanfu Village and was originally cursed by this place. Although I put the nameplate there, I did it to save him."
Jian Yue didn't say he didn't believe it, but he didn't believe it completely either. He asked, "Will his life be in danger?"
The female ghost said, “I don’t know.”
Jian Yue didn't say anything. He said, "If I can't get the answer I want from you, then you won't get the answer you want from me either."
The female ghost was indeed anxious, and she glared at Jian Yue with hatred on her face.
Jian Yue said: "You haven't found Ji Feng in these hundreds of years. If you kill me, you won't be able to find him in the next hundreds of years. Oh, and maybe you won't be able to find the one who eloped with him either."
The female ghost was a little upset. She said, "I really don't know. He is not someone I can understand at all!"
Jian Yue frowned and asked directly, "Is Shen Yushu a mountain god?"
When these words were spoken, the entire ancestral hall seemed to be quiet for a moment. The mountain beasts not far away looked majestic, and it seemed that their eyes were fixed on Jian Yue.
The female ghost slowly retreated and said, "I don't know..."
"You know." Jian Yue pressed on step by step. He looked straight into her eyes: "Tell me, is it him or not? As long as you tell me, I will help you find Ji Feng. Yes or no, just speak!"
The female ghost retreated to the pillar with nowhere to retreat. She actually revealed a somewhat embarrassed posture. Her black hair hung down beside her. When she had no way to retreat, she finally said excitedly: "He was made of bronze! I don't know what he is. That year Ji Feng died. He was studying the secret of longevity in Wanfu Village. He accidentally discovered that I was also a monster, so he began to be afraid of me. We quarreled at first, but then he suddenly came back. He said that he had come to his senses and that he really loved me, so we got married..."
Jian Yue asked: "What happened next? Why did he run away?"
"He said he would take me away from Wanfu Village!" the ghost girl said excitedly, "But on the day I left, I couldn't find him at the entrance of the village. The village chief and the others said he was dead!"
Jian Yue took a deep breath: "Where is Shen Yushu? How did you find him?"
The female ghost said, "I want to become a normal person. I went to the old temple of the mountain god to worship every day. Then I picked up a child there. I didn't want to care about it at the time, but I was afraid that the mountain god would punish me, so I took him back. After my father died unexpectedly, he handed me the ancestral bronze mirror and said that it was the seal of the mountain god and must not be moved. But I found that if I dripped blood into it every night, there would be no abnormal changes at night..."
Jian Yue said: "This is why you can leave Wanfu Village."
The ghost girl nodded, covering her face and saying, "I wanted to find Ji Feng so badly, but I didn't expect that the bronze artifacts would decay once they left Wanfu Village. But later, I found that if the child carried the bronze mirror, the mirror would not decay..."
Jian Yue frowned and asked, "Young Master, have you ever been different from ordinary people since you were a child?"
The female ghost shook her head: "No, he is just like a normal child. However, for some reason, the bronze mirror will gradually lose its effect after being away from Wanfu Village for a long time. I can only give the bronze mirror to Xiaoyu and let him take it with him. I use it secretly and find that the bronze mirror has regained its effect."
Jian Yue understood that Shen Yushu must have a special ability. This ability was the same as the energy of the entire magnetic field of Wanfu Village. No, or rather, it was even stronger. Perhaps, he was the magnetic field itself.
"One last question." Jian Yue asked, "Why did you come back?"
The ghost girl sighed and said, "As I get older, I find that I am becoming more and more abnormal. Even the bronze mirror cannot completely help me. I must come back. At least, I want to see him again..."
Jian Yue said: "I finally know who the young master learned this love-brain thing from."
Female ghost:?
Jian Yue complained for a while and then calmed down. He continued, "Okay, then my questions are over. I can answer your questions now. You just want to know where Ji Feng is, right?"
The ghost girl nodded. When she mentioned Ji Feng, her eyes turned red again. She said in a grim voice, "Where is he? Where is he? Have you seen him?"
Jian Yue said, "Yes, I saw him on that path when we went up the mountain. His leg was injured. He might have fallen down because he didn't pay attention to the road when he eloped. Oh, you were there too, but you were sleeping."
Female ghost: “…”
The audience in the live broadcast room laughed like crazy when they heard this:
"Hahaha, it's murderous and heartbreaking."
"When can I listen to Butler Wang talking without laughing?"
"When the old lady woke up from her sleep, the sky was falling."
"How did you find out that person was Ji Feng's?"
really.
The female ghost also thought of this question, she said: "How can you be sure..."
Jian Yue said, "In fact, I didn't think it was him at first, but you know, I saw the photos of him and others in the lab that day, and I thought he looked familiar, but I couldn't remember it at the time. It was only yesterday when I went up the mountain with Mr. Shen and walked along that path that I remembered it. Although his appearance has changed a little, his clothes haven't changed. Is it hard to recognize the clothes of your archaeological team with super matching colors?"
Female ghost: “…”
If she hadn't been dead, she would have really been pissed off to death by Butler Wang.
Jian Yue said: "Now that I have answered your questions, I can go now."
The female ghost stopped him and said, "Take me to find him."
Jian Yue said: "This is another price. If you want me to help you fish him out from the bottom of the mountain, you have to give me some benefits."
The ghost frowned. Although her long hair was fluttering and her face was barely visible, she still said grimly, "What's the benefit?"
She thought a lot.
Butler Wang asked her to help her kill someone. After all, there were too many people in the village who disliked Butler Wang. Or maybe Butler Wang wanted money. He was so greedy for money that everyone in the world knew about it.
"Stop torturing Shen Yushu. He's very tired recently and very busy with work. Don't pretend to be unwell and make him worry." Jian Yue said, "Also, you have to tell him that you have recognized me and that you support us being together."
Female ghost: “…”
The audience in the live broadcast room was also happy:
"When love was purest, he didn't even want money."
"Butler Wang, you have no right to say that others are love-brained."
"The female ghost took on everything, hahaha!"
After Jian Yue negotiated the terms with her, he went back. For example, there was only one day left for the Mountain God Festival. The entire small village was shrouded in an inexplicable atmosphere, and the villagers seemed much quieter than usual. It was a sign of impending storm.
He walked back into the house.
Shen Yushu is reading in the study.
Jian Yue said: "Master, why didn't you handle your official business today?"
Shen Yushu said, "I've dealt with it a while ago, and I haven't been too busy these past two days. I heard that you went to the ancestral hall early in the morning?"
"Let's go and have a look." Jian Yue sat beside him. He took out some fruit from the back and said with a smile, "I picked them from the tree. There are many wild fruits ripe in autumn. I asked if this one is edible. I just ate one. It's sweet. You can try it."
Shen Yushu reprimanded him: "Did you wash it before eating it just now? Aren't you afraid it's not clean?"
Jian Yue said: "I wiped it with clothes, but this bag was just washed outside."
Shen Yushu said with disgust, but he still bit the fruit that Jian Yue handed to him and ate it. The two of them sat together and ate the wild fruits from the mountain, making a crunchy sound, which was particularly leisurely.
Aunt Zhang said outside: "The old lady wants you to come over, young master."
Shen Yushu glanced at Jian Yue and said, "I don't know what my mother wants to talk to me about. I'll go over first. You stay here. I'll have dinner with you in the evening."
Jian Yue nodded and said, "Okay."
Anyway, he already knew what it was, so it wasn't a big deal.
Shen Yushu left, and Jian Yue went to take a shower, then packed the things in his suitcase. Well, actually he didn't have much luggage, but he would not be staying in Wanfu Village soon, so he still had to pack his things.
After putting everything in order, he walked back to the study along the corridor.
Just then, Aunt Zhang had finished cooking.
Jian Yue went to the living room to wait for Shen Yushu to come back. Not long after nightfall, Shen Yushu came back from outside. He glanced at Jian Yue and said, "If I come back late, you can eat first."
"It's okay. I'm not too hungry." Jian Yue asked, "What does the old lady want to see you about?"
Shen Yushu replied: "My mother said that she heard about Scarface and Brother Daniu yesterday, and she thinks it is common for young people to pursue their own love, so she will no longer stop me from being with you."
Jian Yue thought to himself that there was no love between Scarface and Brother Daniu.
But it doesn't matter.
Anyway, he and the young master are.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "Then Master, let's pick an auspicious time after the Mountain God Ceremony and go to the ancestral hall together so that we can get familiar with the process!"
Shen Yushu had an expression that said, "I knew you, a hypocritical little devil, were thinking this." He raised his noble chin and said, "It's not impossible if you want to go."
The two looked at each other.
Suddenly they said in unison: "Why not go and have a look tomorrow?"
After saying this, both of them were stunned.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "I think tomorrow should be a good day."
Shen Yushu also said: "Well, after the Mountain God Festival, we have to be busy returning to City A. There is no time to check the procedures. Let's go and take a look tomorrow."
The two of them set a time without any prior agreement.
He went to bed early at night, but maybe because he was worried, Jian Yue tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Shen Yushu said, "You are just going to visit the ancestral hall tomorrow, not marrying me. Why are you suffering from insomnia?"
Jian Yue whispered, "Why didn't the young master fall asleep?"
Shen Yushu was silent for a moment, then he coughed and said, "This young master is shallow."
Jian Yue smiled and couldn't help kissing him on the lips. Then Shen Yushu's breathing became heavier. Before Jian Yue could react, he was covered with kisses all over. He heard the man's hoarse voice saying, "Since you can't sleep, let's do something to kill time."
The night suddenly became lively.
Unlike previous kisses, this time both of them were much more passionate towards each other, perhaps because they were both excited about tomorrow, or perhaps because it was a rare occasion to get recognition from their loved ones, so it seemed more unusual.
Jian Yue was also more passionate than before, and when Shen Yushu kissed him, he would kiss back.
All along.
He always liked to kiss the red mole on Shen Yushu's collarbone, but usually he would just kiss it and leave it at that. But today was different. When he was aroused, he bit her, not lightly, as if he wanted to leave his mark on her body.
Shen Yushu glanced at him and said, "Are you born in the year of the dog?"
Jian Yue smiled, his eyes were bright, and when Shen Yushu looked over, he hugged Shen Yushu's neck, breathing slightly, but his voice was very clear. He said, "I want to leave some marks of my own on the young master, so that the young master will remember me wherever he goes in the future."
He felt that his idea was crazy and normal people would not bother to pay attention to him.
Shen Yushu sneered: "Then this trace of yours will probably disappear tomorrow."
"It's okay." Jian Yue's slender fingers gently stroked the small mole. His voice was a little hoarse, but with a smile: "This mole will never disappear. In the future, Master will think of me when he sees the mole."
Shen Yushu kissed his lips, stopping him from saying anything.
at last.
When Jian Yue was really tired and drowsy, and Shen Yushu was about to carry him to take a shower, he heard the man say in his ear: "You don't need this, I will remember you too."
…
Day 2
The last day before the Mountain God Festival.
Early in the morning, Jian Yue was particularly relaxed and cheerful. He pulled Shen Yushu to choose clothes, and finally chose a black tuxedo. The close-fitting clothes made him look very tall. Shen Yushu also changed into a burgundy suit. This color is usually more picky about people, but it does not look out of place in Shen Yushu's clothes. Instead, it makes him look elegant and noble.
When we arrived at the ancestral hall, the woods were still so quiet.
Jian Yue and Shen Yushu walked slowly along the path hand in hand, with fallen leaves hanging from the sky and falling on their shoulders, gentle and quiet.
When the door of the ancestral hall was opened, a strong and gloomy atmosphere came towards him. Jian Yue just smiled in a good mood and said, "I was told that the mountain beast is actually very beautiful if you look closely. I think it has delicate features!"
Divine beast: “…”
Shen Yushu also looked at it for a long time. Although he still thought it was ugly, he still gave Jian Yue some face and nodded: "It's okay."
Divine beast: “…”
It really shocked these two people!!
Jian Yue and Shen Yushu walked to the table together. He said, "I remember they stood here and used this to light incense, then bowed three times, which was considered as joining the ancestral home of Wanfu Village."
Shen Yushu asked, "Would you like to light this incense?"
"Yes." Jian Yue said, "Master, let's order one and familiarize ourselves with the process in advance."
Shen Yushu rarely refused him and said, "Well, go ahead."
Jian Yue took three sticks of incense, and Shen Yushu also took three bunches. They both bowed to the statue. Jian Yue was particularly serious when bowing. He smiled and said to Shen Yushu, "Was I quite professional just now? I remember the posture of holding the incense very clearly!"
He was extremely satisfied and had no regrets in his life. He and Shen Yushu had held their wedding ceremony in the ancestral hall and they had also asked gods to witness it. Although no one knew about their wedding, not even Shen Yushu himself, he was the only one who knew about it. But he was already very satisfied. They couldn't grow old together in this life, but he had taken advantage of him once.
He is such a clever little fellow!
Young Master would never have thought of this!
Shen Yushu looked at him and smiled. He said, "Even if you don't hold it professionally, no one will dare to say anything to you at my wedding ceremony."
He also wanted to be very satisfied. Even if it was just a task, even if he was just lied to, he and Jian Yue had been married before, and it was witnessed by God. Although their wedding had no guests and no one presided over it, it was just a rehearsal ceremony in the mouth of Butler Wang, and only he knew about it. Even if there was no possibility of seeing each other again in the future, he had burned incense together in this life, and he had taken advantage of Butler Wang.
Or say that you are the winner!
Oh! Butler Wang certainly couldn't have imagined this!
