Chapter 219: Cliff
Linzhi just felt that life was too bitter and she needed a piece of candy to sweeten it so that she could support herself to move on.
In the future, as long as she remembers this sweetness, she will be able to endure all the bitterness.
But Linzhi never imagined that the sweetness gained from her greed for temporary warmth would actually push her into the abyss.
Blocked her last chance to survive.
Pushed her into hell.
When Linzhi woke up again, she was tied up in a sedan chair.
That candy!
There is something wrong with that candy!
Linzhi didn't know whether she should be sad, desperate, or angry at this moment.
Her uncle, who loved her the most since she was a child and was also the person she trusted the most, actually gave her a fatal blow when she was at her most vulnerable.
The sound of suona outside was so deafening that for a moment, Linzhi couldn't even tell whether it was a happy or sad occasion.
With a loud bang.
Suddenly, thunder roared across the sky.
Immediately afterwards, heavy rain came.
The road was muddy and the rain was getting heavier, making it increasingly difficult to walk on.
The sedan bearers and the bridesmaids couldn't help but frown and complain, "Didn't we agree that today is a good day, with no wind or rain?"
"Why is there such a strong wind all of a sudden? The rain is so heavy, we can't even walk on this road!"
It would be fine if it was just raining, but there were lightning and thunder outside, which was very scary.
If they continued to carry the sedan chair, God would be blind and strike them with a thunderbolt. Then who would they turn to for justice?
Everyone cursed and complained.
He had no choice but to stop the sedan at the nearest City God Temple, cursing.
Someone remained vigilant and suddenly lifted the curtain. Seeing that the bride was still tied up and sleeping soundly, he felt relieved.
"Alas, this bride is pitiful. That butcher Gao is not a human being. What kind of parents would have the heart to marry their daughter to such a man?"
The sedan bearers took shelter inside from the rain and talked to the bridesmaid if no one was around.
The bridesmaid took a look at the sedan chair and sighed, "Who said it wasn't?"
"What a sin! What a poor child!"
She was even tied up and put into the bridal sedan. You can imagine how cruel the parents were.
It’s just that there are so many poor people in the world, and these people can’t take care of them even if they want to, so they can only do their own thing.
As the saying goes, everyone should clean the snow in front of their own door and not worry about the frost on other people's roofs.
There are too many injustices in this world, and we cannot control them all, no matter what.
Linzhi listened quietly, her brows and eyes were cold, and no one knew what she was thinking.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it seemed that there was no sign of stopping at all.
The godfather and the bridesmaid were extremely anxious, fearing that they would miss the opportunity. But there was nothing they could do. After all, they couldn't go against the will of heaven, nor could they brave the rain and thunder to continue on their journey. No one would ruin their entire life for this one business deal.
The sky gradually darkened.
The bridesmaid and the sedan bearer exchanged a glance. Holding the veil, she sighed, "Forget it. Even if I've realized it, there's nothing I can do. We can only wait until the rain stops. Maybe even God can't bear it anymore and wants to buy some time for the bride."
The sedan bearer didn't take it seriously, even sneered, and snorted disdainfully, "You're the only one who's naive enough to still believe in those cruel parents."
"God is buying time for this poor girl. What time is he buying for? Is he waiting for those ruthless parents to regret their actions?"
"If pigs and dogs can climb trees, these two won't regret it."
If he regretted anything, he would not tie his daughter into the bridal sedan and push her into the fire pit with his own hands.
The bride was silent for a long time, and finally nodded, feeling that what the sedan bearer said made some sense.
As the night gradually deepened, Linzhi finally untied the rope that trapped her.
She quietly got out of the sedan chair, even throwing away the wedding dress that was in the way, and ran out of the City God Temple on tiptoe.
The rain outside has stopped.
Her movements were very quiet, but they still startled the coachman and the matchmaker.
The coachman and the bridesmaid opened their eyes a little and seemed to see in the moonlight that the bride was trying to escape.
But the two of them closed their eyes in the end.
Run!
Run farther!
Don't come back!
The two men estimated the time in their minds and felt that it was almost time, so they finally woke up and went to check on the bride.
Suddenly, the bride disappeared without a trace.
"Oh no, the bride is missing!"
The screams of the two almost broke the sky.
…
Linzhi kept running forward, he didn't know where he was going.
She was just wandering alone in the woods, determined to get out of this dangerous place and find a way to survive.
But her legs and feet were very weak, and the effect of the medicine she had taken before seemed not to have completely worn off, so she could not run fast.
She would even fall again and again.
Footsteps were soon heard from behind.
It seems like someone is chasing us relentlessly.
Linzhi gritted her teeth and continued to run forward, stumbling. No matter what, she couldn't be caught.
If she fails to escape this time and is caught, death will be waiting for her.
But unfortunately, the pursuers soon caught up with her and forced her to the edge of the cliff.
Lin's father and mother glared at Lin Zhi fiercely, "You ignorant and stupid little girl, I underestimated you. Even at this time, you still want to run away!"
My uncle was standing there, panting, leaning on a cane, with a look of heartache on his face. "Zhizhi, come back, don't go any further!"
"There's a bottomless abyss ahead. If you fall in, you'll die!"
Why is this child so stubborn?
Lin Zhi looked intently at her uncle, the man she once trusted the most but who had pushed her art into the fire. "Grandpa, you clearly know what would happen if I married him. You also clearly know that I would have no way out."
"Why are you still helping them to become accomplices of the evil?!"
She doesn't understand, she never understands.
Why would her own uncle help them and become the evil ghost that forced her to death!
The uncle's eyes flashed, "I don't want to either, but if you don't marry, what will your brother do?"
