Chapter 168
Ah Huo heard a thud, and he lifted his legs to cross the threshold, but he felt his legs go limp, and he knelt on the ground, and then his whole body fell to the ground.
Ah Huo subconsciously looked behind him, wanting to check if Su Yuebai on his back was okay, but when he turned around, he couldn't help but scream.
Because what Ah Huo saw was not a living person, but a pale piece of paper.
This piece of paper was wearing a very soft, smooth and cool white dress, and there was a round hairpin made of white paper on its head, which looked like a white lollipop.
There were no shoes, no socks, and no face. It was just a pale piece of paper, made into a human shape, like the human figure that would appear when the green light on the legs of the safe passage was on, very simple.
Ah Huo screamed for a while, then lay on the ground gasping for breath. He saw his hands, came back to his senses, checked his body, and wanted to turn over, but it was too late.
His body did not have enough strength to support himself to turn over.
Moreover, from the moment he stepped over the threshold, Ah Huo's shoes gradually turned into the state of paper. After the shoes turned completely into white paper, the problem was with the ankles above the shoes.
After the ankles, it was the calves, then the knees, and then the thighs. The problem had reached the waist, and both hands had lost strength.
Now the only parts of Ah Huo's body that had not turned into paper were the chest, neck and head.
Ah Huo lay on the ground and looked at his hands with a desperate expression. Perhaps because of anger, Ah Huo's eyes rolled back and he fainted. The speed at which his body turned into white paper increased.
Before he completely lost consciousness, Ah Huo closed his eyes and thought drowsily: I really shouldn't believe any ghost.
In fact, the reason why Ah Huo went to find the bride alone was not because he completely believed her words. It was just because he wanted to leave here so badly that he didn't care about anything else when he heard that there was a chance to leave.
Before the incident started, Ah Huo also thought that this might be a trap, but even if it was a trap, Ah Huo wanted to try it.
If I can leave now, I can definitely avoid a lot of dangers, and I will definitely not suffer any loss.
If this is really a trap, the worst that can happen is that I will lose my limbs, and then I can leave here and go to the hospital. As long as it can be treated, I will not die immediately, and there is no need to worry too much. It is a price Ah Huo can accept.
It's just that my luck is too bad.
In the blink of an eye, there were only two pieces of white paper on the ground.
The piece of paper stuck to the ground was soaked by the rain, and it looked wrinkled and shrunken, like the body of a dried cockroach.
The paper disappeared without a trace.
"Have you rested enough? It's almost time, and the rain is about to stop. Get ready to carry the bride out."
Matchmaker Su led a group of servants to the yard where Green and others were resting and shouted.
A group of people went out and looked around, but they didn't see Ah Huo, and they were all confused.
"I wonder where Ah Huo went?"
Aruo said to himself.
"Then let's ask."
Ah Qiang walked up and said.
He walked up to a servant, who shook his head like a mute, just looking at him without answering. He then asked Su the matchmaker again, and Su the matchmaker laughed sharply.
It sounded very harsh, unpleasant, and annoying, and it had the effect of instantly arousing all the negative emotions of others.
"You want to know this, and you will know when you go out."
Su the matchmaker replied with a smile.
Su the matchmaker's face was not good-looking. I don't know if there was a black sesame or a mole stuck at the corner of her mouth. When she laughed, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and her cheeks moved, like a mouse swallowing a worm. She
was wearing a red dress, which was particularly dazzling and even more annoying.
"Any other questions? If not, come with us."
Su the matchmaker said to the others.
The others had no opinion.
Matchmaker Su walked in the front. The bride's sedan chair was already waiting outside the door. Beside the sedan chair were some other servants who had already packed up.
"Someone has already carried the sedan chair, so from now on you will be in charge of the wedding band's work, which is to play instruments and sing. Don't worry, this job is very simple, as long as you can get out of it."
Matchmaker Su clapped her hands. Under her feet was a piece of white paper that seemed to have solidified. The paper was slightly black, as if it had been stepped on twice, and it was a little torn. You could barely make out the human figure.
But that was all.
"But we can't do it."
Aruo whispered.
"Don't you say that as long as you can get out of it, it's fine? We are not dead yet, so it should be okay as long as we get the things."
Aqiang replied.
"I hope it's okay."
Amo nodded.
They were given musical instruments one by one.
The servant lifted the sedan chair, and they walked behind it.
As they walked, the situation in front of them suddenly changed.
Ah Mo was stunned for a moment.
"Hello, sir. Do you remember what's in your house?"
asked a very beautiful and young girl.
"I don't remember."
Ah Mo replied.
"Then let me take you home."
The young girl came over and took Ah Mo's hand.
"Please wait a moment, who are you?"
Ah Mo took a step back cautiously.
"Your acting skills are really good, you almost fooled me. But since you asked, it's not good not to tell you, so I'll tell you. I'm your sister! How come you don't even recognize your own sister?"
The young girl asked with a smile.
"Then whose home are you taking me to?"
Ah Mo asked.
"Of course it's your home. You're not going to say that your home is not my home, right? But your home and my home are the same home. We have the same parents. Why did you suddenly think of saying this?"
asked the young girl.
"Nothing."
Amo hesitated and answered.
"Nothing, let's go quickly."
The young girl said and pulled Amo home.
Amo looked down and found that both of his hands were full of plastic bags, which were filled with fruits, vegetables, and raw meat.
The young girl stretched out both hands and grabbed the plastic bags.
"What are you doing?"
Amo asked.
"You must be very tired carrying so many things home, let me help you. It's nothing, just let go of your hands, I will take it home for you, don't worry, I won't lose your things on the way."
The young girl said with a smile.
"No."
Amo shook his head.
"Why not? Do you hate me? But I haven't quarreled with you before."
The young girl said with a wronged expression.
Amo looked at the young girl for a long time and suddenly laughed.
"What are you laughing at? Are you happy to see others unhappy? What are you? A pervert? Do you know you went too far? If you don't apologize, this matter will never be forgiven."
The young girl said angrily with her hands on her hips.
"I won't give you the things, and I don't have a sister."
Ah Mo looked at the young girl and answered.
The young girl was stunned for a moment.
"Are you okay in the head? Do you have a fever? Are you confused? I'll take you to the hospital. We don't want to go home now, don't be stupid."
The young girl came up and tried to snatch the plastic bag in Ah Mo's hand, and even dragged Ah Mo to the hospital by his arm.
"I know what you want me to do, but I just don't want to. I won't let go of the things in my hand.
And with your poor acting skills and ridiculous excuses, why do you think you can fool me?"
Ah Mo asked with a sneer.
The young girl tried for a long time, her face turned red, her hands turned purple, and her arms seemed to be half a circle bigger than before, but she failed to snatch the plastic bags from Ah Mo's hands. The
young girl suddenly disappeared.
Ah Mo felt that he was back to the back of the sedan chair. After he continued to play music, the servant put down the sedan chair, and Su the matchmaker waved to them and said they could go.
He felt that this matter was simple and surprising. After hesitating, he went home. When he opened the door, he found that there were two more people at home. He was stunned again.
"Didn't guess we would be here?"
A middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"It was quite surprising."
Ah Mo replied.
He thought: Who are you two? How can you enter someone else's house so casually? As if this is your home. But I'm the only one in my family.
"Child, let's calculate the date. Your birthday is coming soon. I'll go traveling soon. I'll come to see you near your home. We'll wait until your birthday is over before we leave."
The middle-aged woman stood up, smiled, stretched out her hand and pulled Ah Mo, and said to him while pulling him into the house.
"My birthday, when is my birthday?"
Ah Mo was a little confused.
"How come you don't even know your own birthday? Your birthday is tomorrow. How about we celebrate tonight? We've prepared a cake."
The middle-aged woman took Ah Mo to sit down and pointed to a box on the table.
The box was square and quite big, like a gift. There was a bow tied with a red ribbon on the top. It was made of translucent frosted material, and you could vaguely see something inside.
If someone hadn't said there was really a cake inside, you wouldn't have been able to tell it was a cake.
"We're already home, why are you still holding your keys? Put down everything in your hand, even your wallet, okay? Are you afraid we'll steal your money?" The
middle-aged woman laughed and patted the back of Ah-Mo's hand. The
middle-aged man came over and sat next to Ah-Mo, smiled and held Ah-Mo's other hand, saying, "The kids back then have all grown up. It's our fault for accepting his red envelopes when he was a kid."
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman took her hand back, rummaged in her pocket, took out a wallet, pulled out a few hundred-dollar bills from it and patted Ah-Mo's palm.
"Kid, we thought you wouldn't remember what happened in the past. I didn't expect you to remember it. Let's take this as our compensation and apology, okay?"
the middle-aged woman said with a smile.
The middle-aged man also took out a red envelope and put the money in Ah Mo's other hand.
