Chapter 185 All Mortals Will Die 07
Coming down from the mountain, the view suddenly became wider. Jiang Yuelu called out to Guitou Xiaowu, who was walking towards the village without looking back, "Wait a minute, don't rush in, we'll make a long-term plan."
When he came back, Jiang Yuelu was in trouble again.
Take a long-term view, and who should we consult with?
There were only three of them, but the one who could speak was very quiet. He sighed, "Forget it, let's tell fortunes first." He had just taken out the snake eye stick when he heard a noise coming from the front.
Jiang Yuelu stretched her neck and asked, "What's going on over there?"
Guitou Xiaowu: "They are fighting!"
"?" Jiang Yuelu said: "Why are you so excited? We didn't come here to fight."
"oh……"
Jiang Yuelu told him to keep an eye on Mo Zhixian and she would be back soon. The sound came from a family that was more impressive than the houses next to it. There was a wedding sign pasted on the door and red lanterns were hung, as if they were welcoming a bride.
When there is a happy event in the family, the head of the household is naturally happy. Standing at the door is a couple, both dressed in festive attire. However, they look worried and anxious, and it is obvious that they don't know what to do.
There was a fight going on at the door, and many people gathered there to watch.
Jiang Yuelu stood in the outermost circle, and next to him was a brother who was eating sunflower seeds. When he saw someone coming, he didn't even raise his head and consciously grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds for him, "Come on, come on, let's take a look together."
Jiang Yuelu was flattered and joined the group eating melon seeds. "Brother, what's going on?"
"Didn't you see?" The man spat out the melon seed shells and pointed his mouth at the inner circle, "On such a good day, there are two happy events, and the debt of love has come to collect."
It turns out that this family's surname is Zhao.
This surname is very important in Wujia Village. It is one of the largest families. The Zhao couple had a son in their old age and doted on this only child. It is said that on the day of his birth, they specially invited someone to the altar to personally give him a name.
"Here, not everyone has this blessing. The words bestowed on the altar are equivalent to those bestowed by the gods." The man made a respectful gesture, fearing that calling the god's name directly would displease the old man.
The word given by God is called Gan.
This word is very important. In ancient times, only emperors dared to use this name.
Even if the gods dared to give it, the Zhao family would not dare to use it, fearing that it would shorten their son's life. After being depressed for several days, Zhao Gan's mother suddenly had an idea, "Why not add another word 'gan'?"
One word is good, and two words are even better, and it does not go against the will of God.
So, Zhao Gan transformed himself and became Zhao Gan Gan.
This child was very smart and could learn anything quickly, and soon became one of the best talents in the family. But no one is perfect, and Zhao Gan Gan, who was a model for his disciples in everything, had a bad habit of flirting with girls, and could get along with any girl, just like an ancient central air conditioner.
The man was eating melon seeds and flew up. "This year, Zhao Gangan's father asked the altar and was told that his son's marriage would take place in the next few days. So he hurriedly consulted a matchmaker and asked about his horoscope. Finally, half a month ago, he found a girl who was a perfect match for his son. Isn't it set today?"
"What a great thing, I didn't expect... Hey! This kid got into trouble, and the Miao family came to his house and said that he had secretly married his sister. Oh... You see, this thing is so unlucky, so unlucky."
Is it not going well? You seem to be enjoying it...
Jiang Yuelu was disinterested when listening to this, because this matter had nothing to do with the altar ceremony.
Just as he was about to go back, the man said casually: "However, the altar has already told the Zhao family that there is no rush to hold the wedding. Now there are problems everywhere, and they are all waiting for their families to come forward. The Miao family and the Zhao family are both big witch families. If they get angry at this critical moment..."
Jiang Yuelu asked with sharp ears: "Is there something wrong everywhere?"
"It's just that there's an epidemic outside... Uh, wait, you... you look unfamiliar." The man finally stopped eating melon seeds and asked, "Who are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Jiang Yuelu laughed, "As for me, I am..."
Just when he was thinking about leaving, there was another big commotion in the inner circle, with crying and cursing everywhere. The man squeezed to the front to watch the fun and didn't bother to question his identity.
Jiang Yuelu wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and thought, "Miao's sister, I hope you win this romantic battle. If you hadn't helped me out, I really don't know how to explain it..."
Thinking of this, he looked up to see what the Miao girl looked like.
People were surrounding him in three layers inside and outside, and he had the advantage of being high up, so he could see some scraps.
There were about ten people standing at the door of Zhao's house. They must be one of the main actors in "A Romantic Debt" - the Miao family.
These people held various weapons, but they were not sticks and machetes commonly used in fighting, but tortoise shells, stick tubes, silver needles, and tattered cotton dolls.
There was even an old woman leaning on a cane, holding a jar in her hand that was bigger than her head, and muttering something. It was obvious that it was not a good thing.
"Zhao family, I curse you to have no descendants for three generations!"
"If you don't give our young lady an explanation today, don't blame me for coming to your house in the middle of the night to cast a spell of love!"
"Your family's luck will end today!"
Such shouts were heard everywhere, and Jiang Yuelu was surprised again and again.
The witch clan’s way of looking for trouble is unique!
Among these Miao people who were swearing and threatening, there were two people standing at the front of the team.
One was standing and the other was sitting, both were wearing green clothes with more complicated patterns. The one standing was a man, who was about an adult, and at this moment he was cursing in front of the old couple of the Zhao family.
"I regard Zhao Gangan as my best friend, and I regard you two as my biological parents. How I treat you and him usually? I have always known about his bad habits, but he also swore in front of me that he can be unfair to anyone in this village, but he can't be unfair to my sister!"
Miao Chengyi was furious. "He deliberately hid his marriage from me and my sister. If someone hadn't told me, how long would he have been deceived? You invited everyone in the two hundred miles away but didn't invite our Miao family. Do you know that your son has wronged my sister and doesn't dare to come to see her?"
"If that's true, your Zhao family is really rotten!"
The old couple of the Zhao family covered their foreheads and said, "Hey, young man, child, this is not how it is said..."
"That's not what I meant. What should I say? My sister has been deceived into such a state. Look at her. She can't eat or sleep these past few days..."
The Miao girl, who was sitting on the ground in despair, began to tremble after hearing these words. The shaking became more and more severe. Finally, she could not bear it anymore and burst into tears. Her brother turned back angrily and said, "Cry, cry, cry! You still have the nerve to cry!"
Jiang Yuelu shook his head and sighed inwardly.
The two families fought back and forth, but they didn't care about the girl's life or death. He thought of his sister Yan Lu in an instant. If the same thing happened, he would definitely protect Lu Lu first, hide her at home to heal her, and take Yan Fei out to fight the unfaithful man...
Thinking of this, I felt even more sympathetic towards this girl.
However, as he looked, his gaze shifted to the person next to Miss Miao.
She was also a tall girl. Although the patterns on her green clothes were not as complicated as Miss Miao's, she was different from the people behind her. She should be Miss Miao's personal maid.
The young lady was crying, and she was squatting down to hand her a handkerchief.
This time, the movement was quite large, revealing a thin section of her black hair, which Jiang Yuelu saw. He immediately exclaimed in his heart, "Oh my god!" and wanted to take a closer look, but the girl moved faster and had already stood up.
"Who is pushing? Who is pushing? Do you have any sense?"
"Go, go, go, go to the back, why are you squeezing?"
Jiang Yuelu hurriedly apologized.
Seeing that the old couple of the Zhao family persuaded the Miao family members to come in, as if they were going to have a long talk behind closed doors, the guests at the door dispersed.
Guitou Xiaowu saw Jiang Yuelu walking back with her head down, "Shall we leave?"
"No, I want to go in and take a look."
"What are you looking at?" Xiao Wu was puzzled.
Jiang Yuelu looked at the high wall of the Zhao family and laughed, "Have you ever drunk the wedding wine from a thousand years ago? I haven't, so why don't I go in and take a look?"
Guitou Xiaowu felt bored, but he never liked to think.
Moreover, he had some favorable impression on the person in front of him.
The first reason is that the people he admires are acquainted with him. According to his logic, awesome people must hang out together.
As long as he follows Jiang Yuelu, he will meet the man who hung him on the tree sooner or later. Then, whether he becomes his disciple or competes with him, it will be an exciting and thrilling thing.
Furthermore, Jiang Yuelu is not as talkative as others.
He has few questions and doesn't feel compelled to talk to him.
Guitou Xiaowu didn't know that this was the way of getting along that Jiang Yuelu and her rebellious brother had developed, but he was used to it.
Since Jiang Yuelu said she wanted to go and see but didn't say what she wanted to do, she definitely wouldn't take him in.
Drinking at a wedding is not as interesting as fighting. Guitou Xiaowu shook his head in boredom and watched Jiang Yuelu climb up the tree and over the wall to enter the Zhao family. He turned around to glance at the dying Mo Zhixian and stared at the darkest house in the distance in a daze.
It was now evening, and most of the guests who had come to the Zhao family's wedding had left. The entire Wujia Village began to light up little by little, with lights on everywhere, making the only dark place look out of place.
A dark house cannot attract Guitou Xiaowu.
But he felt something was strange.
After looking for a while, Guitou Xiaowu suddenly felt a chill.
——It’s the direction!
Such a dark and gloomy house was built in the most central location of the village.
-
Jiang Yuelu entered the Zhao family smoothly and had a smooth journey.
Many of the guests had left, and the Zhao family's own people had gone to discuss matters with the Miao family. Most of the yard was empty, leaving only red paper on the ground. Lanterns were dimly lit, and there was red light everywhere. Jiang Yuelu searched all the way, as if he had accidentally entered a monster cave filled with red mist.
He stopped and thought for a moment.
Walk in the other direction.
The person he wanted to find was mixed in with the Miao family's team. He was not sure what urgent business the other party had, so he decided not to alert the enemy and just follow him from a distance and watch.
Not long after they walked, they heard the sound of an argument coming from a room. Jiang Yuelu thought that this must be the place where the Miao and Zhao families were meeting. Just as she was about to walk in, she heard a creak and the door opened.
The girl who walked out of the door was the one who handed Miss Miao the handkerchief. She came out quietly and stepped as lightly as possible. No one in the house noticed her. Only Jiang Yuelu, who was staring at the door outside, saw her.
The girl in green closed the door quietly, pressed her hair, turned around to check, and then walked in another direction where no one was. Seeing that her figure was about to disappear, Jiang Yuelu immediately followed her. Fortunately, he had been very light-footed recently, and although the girl was cautious all the way, she still asked him to follow.
After walking for about half a while, when they turned around the garden, the maid suddenly met a servant from the Zhao family.
The boy shouted, "Who are you and where are you going?"
Jiang Yuelu hid behind a tree in the garden and heard the girl answer: "I just came today. Our lady asked me to go and see the son-in-law."
The servant understood and said, "You were brought by the bride? The son-in-law is drunk and not feeling well. He is still sleeping in that room. You must not disturb him."
"Can't our young lady be disturbed?"
"this……"
"Which room?" The girl said, "Don't worry, if anyone blames me, I will say that the young lady asked the uncle in advance."
The servant thought so too. They were husband and wife from today on. What could they not say? I was afraid that I would have to rely on this girl in the future.
He pointed in a direction, and after being thanked, he was so happy that he was dizzy and walked through the garden in a daze, "I have to tell Zhao Wu that I met a super beautiful girl!"
well.
Jiang Yuelu sighed in her heart.
This child has learned bad things and can lie without showing any emotion.
How could the servant know that this young lady was not that young lady? This Zhao Gangan might be hiding in some room like a turtle. If he knew that you had leaked the news to the Miao family... Jiang Yuelu shook his head and followed him, becoming even more puzzled about what this "girl" had done.
Why did he go to find Zhao Gan Gan?
After walking for a while in the direction pointed by the servant, they came into view an extremely unique courtyard with pavilions, towers, artificial rocks and landscapes, which was more exquisite than any they had seen in the Zhao family before.
But once you walk in, you'll find this yard extremely scary.
Every window and door was tightly wrapped with iron chains, and the room in the middle had more than a dozen sharp iron fences. These chains and iron bars surrounded the exquisite courtyard like an iron barrel. Jiang Yuelu was amazed. This was probably not to stop people from asking for love debts, but more like...
It's more like letting their son cry out to heaven and earth for help but no one will help him!
