He used the entire coffin as paper to write. He turned his wrist and the tip of the pen flowed smoothly on the golden nanmu wood.
A string of complicated spells was formed, spreading smoothly on the five sides of the coffin except the bottom.
The final pause is even more amazing.
It seems that the skill level of the person who handled it can be seen from those complex characters.
After both coffins were completed, the Taoist priest withdrew with exaggerated movements.
After realizing his true face, Ding Can felt that he was mostly putting on a show. Fortunately, the people below were ignorant and no one raised any questioning remarks.
All in all, this absurd ghost marriage has come to an end, and she will be officially buried underground.
The mechanism restarted, and this time the coffin began to slowly fall down again. The stone slabs on the altar gathered towards the center again, returning to their original appearance.
Ding Can was finally able to see the scene underground clearly. There was a huge tomb underneath.
This is the eighth year since Lord Lu's death, which means that he has already married seven brides.
Although she was still in the process of descending, there were already seven coffins placed on the ground of the tomb to the side of her coffin.
Near the top plate are two coffins supported by a mechanical frame for easy lifting. They should be spares for next time.
By this calculation, the Lu family made a total of eleven coffins with that piece of golden nanmu wood.
There are many eternal lamps lit on the stone wall. Perhaps there are ventilation holes in certain positions of the altar to prevent the candles from being extinguished due to lack of oxygen.
The light inside was a little dim, but the vision was still normal.
No living person has been here for a long time, and there are so many corpses here, it's really eerie.
The chill that had finally disappeared returned with a vengeance. Ding Can rubbed his arms, and the faint smell of the wine he had just spilled drifted into his nostrils.
She inexplicably thought of the strange things that happened during the wedding ceremony again.
Although the Lu family's parents have arranged ghost marriages for their children over the years, the real person has never appeared.
But if my guess is correct, Lord Lu has really become a ghost.
He was only thirteen or fourteen years old when he died. He was just a little boy, but he already had a vicious mind to abuse people. I think even if he became a ghost, it is impossible for him to change his nature and become kind-hearted.
Just as he was thinking this, the coffin was finally transported by the mechanism and landed steadily on the ground.
I have to go out first. When Ding Can was selecting the appropriate props in the system, he felt a gust of wind blowing past his ears.
The coffin was originally used to suffocate the bride, and ventilation was impossible after it was sealed, so under normal circumstances, it should not appear.
But at the same time it was very real, as if something had come in and brought a gust of wind.
The next second, she felt something lying next to her.
Although the coffin is only used to hold the bride, since it is a wedding, the width is specially set to accommodate two people sleeping together, which is completely sufficient to accommodate another person.
Ding Can could see the scene outside through the panoramic water curtain, but because the coffin was tightly sealed, it was completely dark.
She had to know what it was, so she bravely touched it and first felt the shape of the shoulder, which was indeed a human shape.
However, her hands themselves had never warmed up, and the body was even colder than his. Even just by touching it, a sticky smell lingered on her fingertips, like some mollusk hidden in the deep water.
"Who are you?" She quickly pulled her hand back and couldn't help but ask.
"I am your husband, sister, you smell so good." The voice was almost speaking into her ear.
Ding Can didn't hear any breathing sounds, but she felt that the person who was speaking was indeed exhaling a fishy breath, which made the area around her ears stiffen.
Half of her body felt numb and she felt as if she could no longer move. She felt that this was not just a psychological effect, but was probably caused in part by the people around her.
I can't stay here any longer.
The moment a few swollen fingers touched his cheek, Ding Can was sure that it was the same feeling as the back of his hand when he was getting married just now.
She quickly turned her head and lifted the stone in her palm. The stone quickly grew several times in size and turned into the shape of a bull's head, which directly pushed the extremely expensive golden nanmu coffin board out.
Yingshi, a stone prop that can expand, can generate instantaneous impact force and be applied in certain attack situations.
The light outside suddenly caught her eyes. Fortunately, the candlelight was dim. She blinked a few times and quickly adapted to the situation. The first thing she did was to jump out of the coffin and avoid the thing that had been next to her just now.
She didn't look back, and only vaguely saw the corner of her clothes.
After turning over, he quickly took a few steps back. At the same time, in the coffin next to him, Shi Yan pushed open the coffin lid, held a dagger in his mouth, and came out with his hands supporting the coffin.
She didn't hear the sound Ding Can made in the coffin just now, but after she came out, her eyes never left that direction.
"What's wrong?" She walked a few steps to Ding Can.
Just now, when I was among the brides, I could only walk with small steps. I didn’t feel that the wedding dress was inconvenient. But now that I move, I find that my movements are somewhat restricted.
Shi Yan simply lifted the hem of the skirt, grabbed it in her hand, and then cut it at the appropriate position.
As for Ding Can, he simply took off the outer robe, as the wedding dress had several layers.
She took the Yingshi back, but her eyes still didn't move away from the coffin: "Just now, someone appeared beside me in there..."
Before he could finish his words, someone sat up from inside the coffin.
Seeing his appearance, it is easy to guess that he is the youngest son of the Lu family, also known as Lord Lu by the outside world.
This person died by drowning, and the tragic scene of his death is still preserved.
His body had been soaked in the river for so long that it was extremely swollen. His clothes were on the verge of bursting, especially his face.
The layers of flesh were squeezed on the face, leaving no place for it to go, and a lot of flesh was drooping at the chin.
Looking closely, there were large purple blisters oozing out in the wrinkles of the skin.
Since I don’t know his name, I’ll just call him Lord Lu for now.
He was a ghost, so his body could naturally pass through the coffin and approach them. After his bulging, cloudy eyes moved several times with great difficulty, he finally spoke.
"My two sisters and ladies, why are you so anxious to come out? I haven't even had time to say a few words to you."
If it was like what happened in the coffin just now, it would not be necessary. Ding Can still feels extremely disgusted when he thinks about it now.
As for Shi Yan, she had an even worse expression on her face, and looked at him with a hint of disgust.
Not only was he dead, but he also used this appearance to harm others. She could imagine what would happen to the other brides after they arrived at the tomb and had no ability to resist.
She spoke with sarcasm: "I thought it was someone else, I never thought your parents would really raise a brat like you."
Lord Lu was not annoyed, but there was a hint of wonder in his eyes as he looked at the two of them.
He had seen people who were so frightened that they could not move, and he had also seen people who screamed and moved around in their coffins, grabbing their brides. Some were even less fortunate because the effect of the knockout drug was too strong, and they died in their coffins without ever waking up.
These two people in front of me are interesting. They can actually escape from the coffin.
He tried to lift up the fat on his face a little and put on what he thought was a smiling expression.
"Don't be afraid, my lady. I can show you my true face." He transformed himself, and the giant's body immediately shrank a little, turning into the form of a normal young man.
It should be what he looked like when he was a human.
But in reality, Mr. Lu is only fourteen years old, very thin and not tall.
The tattered clothes that were torn by the rocks in the river were turned into casual clothes made of high-quality material. Perhaps he chose them from the paper clothes burned by the Lu family.
As for the shape of his face, it has completely changed. Just now he looked like a short melon in the field, with the flesh concentrated especially on his chin. Now it is more like an inverted triangle, with very small eyes and a shifty look.
One look at it reminds people of some creatures that everyone beats when they cross the street.
There's even a hint of sneakiness in his demeanor. If you see him on the street, you can't help but worry about your wallet.
He looked from top to bottom, blatantly looking at the two of them, and subconsciously licked them twice with his tongue.
"Don't call me wife."
Shi Yan felt sick when she saw his overly scrutinizing gaze.
"If not call me Madam, what else can I call you? Madam, I'm afraid you've forgotten that we just got married."
After saying that, he paused again, "Actually, that's not quite accurate. You can only be considered my eighth or ninth concubines. Logically, you should be brought directly into the house, and you have no right to hold a wedding ceremony at all."
Lord Lu's face looked like he was in his teens, and there was still some childishness on his face. It was particularly inappropriate for him to say something that was obviously meant to be said by an adult.
His condescending look made it difficult to have a normal conversation with him.
Ding Can had no intention of speaking again. In the silence, he noticed that a red light occasionally flashed below his throat, near his chest.
Could the thing in the ghost's body be the red fragment they must get to pass the level?
Shi Yan obviously noticed it as well and exchanged glances with her for a short while, but both of them tacitly kept silent, not intending to alert the enemy.
But their silence presented a completely different scene in Lord Lu's eyes. Seeing that they did not respond to his words, he thought that they had finally realized their fear.
That's right, no matter how much you want to escape, you are just an ordinary person.
Lord Lu couldn't help but think back to the newly married young ladies. Every time they saw him for the first time, they would always feel a little frightened and surprised.
But that was in the coffin, when the person was not dead yet, and the air they needed to survive was being continuously sucked away.
He would deliberately choose to appear at such a dying moment and touch every inch of their skin mischievously.
The bride was like a lamb to be slaughtered at this moment. Even the slightest touch would give him the reaction he wanted.
The screams lingering in the ears will rise several degrees, and then turn into whimpering sounds, and finally end in fear and excitement.
That was the most interesting activity in his long and boring underground life.
However, the two brides in front of him were obviously different from the others. They did not die in the coffins, but were able to break free from the coffin lids and jump out.
It was very innovative and made him excited.
This tomb is his world. No matter how capable a person is, he will not be able to escape from here.
"After you send me to the bridal chamber, I have to do what I should do here."
Ding Can couldn't help but frown. Although this was ancient times, it was normal for underage boys to get married.
But she still felt disgusted when she saw the obviously young boy's demeanor and his blunt words.
Lord Lu moved first, stretching out his short and thin fingers from his sleeves. The feeling in the coffin just now was still vivid in his mind, and he wanted to try the taste of the bride.
He kept talking and kept joking.
"Sister, you are so fair. Wearing this wedding dress makes you look like an osmanthus cake."
When he was alive, his favorite dish was osmanthus cake from a pastry shop in the west of the city.
But the dim sum chef of that restaurant used to be an imperial chef in the palace. His food is delicious and his prices are high.
It would take a month or even longer before his mother would buy him a piece to eat.
The osmanthus cake brought back will be wrapped in bright red square paper.
He would untie the outermost layer of cotton rope and gradually unfold the red paper to reveal the osmanthus cake inside, which was as white as snow.
