"Sir, according to your request, these coffins are all made from hundred-year-old locust trees." Young Master Qian said, patting the lid of the coffin that happened to be the one Le Jin was hiding in. Le Jin froze in fear. "What else do you think is missing? I'll have it prepared tomorrow."
"Hmm..." The old blind man didn't move. After a moment's contemplation, he said, "After the sun sets tomorrow, the Second Young Master's body will be placed in the coffin. After that, all the idle people in the mansion must return to their rooms and not go out until the sun rises tomorrow."
"Tomorrow night?" Young Master Qian was stunned. "Didn't the master say it would be the day after tomorrow?"
"After midnight tomorrow night, it will be the day after tomorrow."
[Good guy! Thank goodness you came over tonight to mess things up!]
【Big Mouthccc! !!!】
If I hadn't heard this news, I would have died in my sleep tomorrow night.
[Looks like you guys need to hurry up and take action.]
"I see."
Young Master Qian nodded, and then listened to the old blind man say: "When you bleed tomorrow, remember to drain it cleanly, so that the formation will be foolproof."
"I will do as you say, sir." Young Master Qian asked again, "But sir, the servants have all gone back to their rooms. Who will do the bloodletting tomorrow?"
"I have my own arrangements."
Obviously, facing the old blind man, Master Qian had to be courteous and all he could do was to respond.
They walked around the room and left after finding nothing amiss. Le Jin waited a little longer to be on the safe side before sneaking out of the coffin.
"I'm so bored." He muttered softly, and hurried out to his room, not forgetting to throw the two pieces of talisman paper with his birth date and time into a ceramic jar full of lotus leaves in the garden.
Another day passed, and the first thing Le Jin did when she opened her eyes was to tell others what she had heard last night, especially that their escape time might have to be advanced.
Before, they all thought that there was still enough time to prepare.
Sure enough, everyone became nervous when they heard the news!
"What should we do now?" Miss Lin touched the cloth wrapped around her forehead. "When are we leaving? I, I don't want to die..."
No one wanted to die, so Huang Yirong asked them to quickly draw the path they had explored last night. Although the girls did not find the room where the old blind man lived last night, they found the path to the kitchen.
"There are people guarding outside during the day, so it's not easy for us to leave. Miss Li just said that after sunset, when the second young master Qian's body is moved, the servants will return to their rooms. It would be best for us to leave at that time."
Huang Yirong analyzed while watching the girls busy drawing, and looked at Le Jin at the same time, "What about you? What are you going to do? They will definitely take you away in advance when the time comes. After all, you are the bride."
"I will find a way to escape. You don't have to worry about me. I'll just memorize the route later. If I move quickly, we might meet again. If not, it doesn't matter. I'll be fine." Le Jin smiled at her, but the girls didn't know how much truth there was in his words.
After hearing what Le Jin said, they thought he had found some way to save his life and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
In the afternoon, Le Jin was taken away. First, he was helped to bathe, and then strange symbols were painted on his limbs with red unknown material. Then he was made up and dressed in wedding clothes.
By the time all this was done, the sun had already set.
"Where are we going?" He was supported and walked forward, his veil blocking his vision. All he could see was the stone slabs under his feet and his red embroidered shoes.
But the servant who came up to help him after he put on the veil did not answer a word, but just led Le Jin step by step to the room he had visited only last night.
The air in the room was a little chilly because there were basins of ice everywhere.
Le Jin thought that he couldn't be too obvious, otherwise the girls might not have enough time to escape, so he just pretended to slow down a little and asked again in confusion: "Where is this?"
"Of course it's the place where we get married." Mrs. Qian's voice suddenly rang out. Le Jin was helped to stand still, and the sound of a door closing was heard behind her.
"Madam?" he asked doubtfully, "Why are there so many basins of ice in the wedding hall? And I don't see Mr. Qian..."
"How could that be?" Madam Qian actually stepped forward, grabbed his wrist and led him inside, her voice filled with obvious excitement: "Our Erlang is right here, waiting to be married to you!"
Le Jin only felt that the back of his head was suddenly pressed down, and a strong force pushed his head straight onto the coffin.
[Fuck! Lao Deng! Sneak attack!]
[Ahhh, fuck, it hurts! ]
【I'll kill you, old man! My head!】
[Big Mouth! I can’t stand this! I can’t stand it! Damn him!]
"Hiss..." He was dizzy and dazed by this. He turned around and opened his mouth to bite the hand that was holding him. When the other party let go because of the pain, he quickly lifted the veil.
After seeing the light of day again, he touched his forehead and found it was swollen!
Looking at the coffin that was hit, there was indeed the body of the Second Young Master Qian lying inside, and... it was all rotten!
Half of Mr. Qian's face had been eaten away, and fat white maggots crawled out of his rotten nostril and then into his rotten mouth.
No wonder it stinks! How long has it been dead?
[I'm vomiting! Get out of here! Don't watch this anymore!]
[Hah, hah, hah! ]
[So disgusting, please go away and stop looking! ]
