"Brother Xue? What's the password? Why are you hiding at the back? This should be the last secret room. Let's break in quickly, or our clearance record will be refreshed!" Meng Yu actually went to the door and took a look at the password lock. It was very complicated and he couldn't understand it. Then he turned around to look for Xue Heng.
Xue Heng, who had led several people all the way, got scared when he reached the last secret room.
Cheng Qian's ghost always appeared and then disappeared, which gave him the illusion that she was waiting for him somewhere.
"I haven't thought about this yet. You guys should think about it. I can't always be the one doing all the hard work." Xue Heng was complimented by everyone when he cracked the code. He was very happy in his heart, but compared with his bright future, he didn't want the hypocritical compliments from several people.
"Brother Xue, why do you say that? Your identity today is Chunni's boyfriend, and you know more information than us. Those who are capable should do more work!" Meng Yu said in a sarcastic way.
He was not really impressed by Xue Heng's performance today. He firmly believed that Xue Heng was the undercover agent today, so it was normal for him to know more.
Now that the other party was unwilling to help, Meng Yu didn't force him. Instead, he asked Yan Muhuai with a flattering smile, "Brother Immortal, do you know the password?"
Normally, when encountering this kind of situation, everyone would have already started looking for the password tacitly, but today, several people have become accustomed to asking right away. Xue Heng alone is not enough, and there is also Yan Muhuai, this godlike man.
Yan Muhuai stood beside Meng Yujing and glanced at the combination lock. It was a seven-letter code. He thought for a moment before answering, "You can try Xue Heng's name."
Meng Yujing's hand was still on the combination lock, and he was about to turn it when he heard that.
"Wait a minute." Xue Heng stepped forward and took Meng Yujing's hand. "Shouldn't we prepare? That female... NPC has been escaping us for so long. There must be someone big waiting for us in here..."
Xue Heng hesitated, and it was obvious that his words could not convince others.
"What are you preparing for? Brother Xue, are you going to call the police? The one who was arrested for ghost marriage is your girlfriend. It's almost done. Are you going to ignore her life or death?" Su Xiaowei was watching the fun and was still madly getting into the role.
"That's right, Brother Xue, if you want to be a scumbag, don't drag us into this. After all, we are Chunni's college classmates. We know about this kind of thing and it's impossible for us to stand idly by." Meng Yu said as he directly opened the combination lock.
It was indeed the pinyin of Xue Heng’s name.
Xue Heng was so angry that he was about to die. He had led these people through so many secret rooms, but they had no gratitude at all. What he said was useless. These people just wanted to go against him.
Now that the door was open, he was a little scared and retreated directly to the last position.
But Lan Xuan wouldn't let him go. "Brother Xue, don't hide. From the information we've found so far, you're the only one who can save the bride from this hellish situation."
They passed through five secret rooms and pieced together an important piece of information, which was that Xue Heng had to marry the bride in the end to dissolve her ghost marriage with the deceased and take her away from here.
"It just says that someone needs to marry the bride, but it doesn't say it has to be me, right?" Xue Heng clung to the wall, preventing Lan Xuan from pulling him in.
Yan Muhuai hadn't entered yet. "You are her lover. You've already let her down once. Do you want to do it again?"
His eyes were calm, but Xue Heng felt a huge sense of oppression from them.
The secrets that I tried so hard to hide in my heart seemed to have been exposed under these eyes long ago.
"You, what nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever let her down?" Xue Heng felt very guilty, but still stiffened his neck to defend himself.
Lan Xuan also felt strange, as Yan Muhuai's words had no basis.
Yan Muhuai also stopped at the point, making Xue Heng feel scared, but he didn't reveal it completely. "Chun Ni is his girlfriend, and those secret rooms we went through also proved how much they loved each other. As Chun Ni's boyfriend, he failed to protect her and let her be captured and married in the afterlife. What else could this be but a betrayal?"
"That's right." Lan Xuan didn't expect Yan Muhuai to be even more into the role than she was. This serious attitude of a newlywed was truly adorable. "So, Brother Xue, hurry in and save Chunni. Watching your girlfriend get married with someone else isn't what a man should do..."
Before Lan Xuan could come to any conclusion, Meng Yujing and Su Xiaowei, who had entered the last secret room first, had already started screaming at the top of their lungs.
In the secret room, there was a mahogany coffin in the middle, which was much larger than an ordinary coffin. A bride wearing a Chinese wedding dress and a red veil was sitting in the coffin. Apart from that, the secret room was very empty and there were no other decorations.
This scene looks a bit weird at first glance, but if you look at it for a second, there is actually nothing to be afraid of.
But neither of them dared to go over and see if there was anything else in the coffin.
After Yan Muhuai and the others entered the secret room, the two of them calmed down a little and quickly hid behind them.
"Brother Huai, do you dare to go over and take a look?" Meng Yu asked in a low voice.
Yao Xizhe took the initiative to speak, "I'll go and see."
He felt that he couldn't just grab Yan Muhuai and rob him alone, because he was a guest, not a laborer.
"It's okay, Teacher Yao. I'll go." Yan Muhuai looked at the bride sitting in the coffin. "Every wrong has its perpetrator. The person she's looking for is not me."
Everyone else thought what Yan Muhuai said was a bit strange, but now everyone's attention was on the coffin, and no one found fault.
However, Yan Muhuai's words were not meant for irrelevant people to hear. As long as Xue Heng and the female ghost understood them, it would be fine.
He approached the coffin step by step, and the female ghost sitting inside was trembling a little.
"A paper man in a groom's suit shouldn't be able to scare us anymore. Let's get married." Yan Muhuai walked to the side of the coffin to give the female ghost a final warning.
But the people who were going to worship were still outside the door and didn't dare to come in.
Meng Yu and Su Xiaowei went out, and they brought Xue Heng in, one on each side. "Brother Xue, what are you doing? You've been so brave all the way, but why are you so cowardly at the last moment? Hurry up and invite the bride to the wedding, otherwise we won't be able to leave."
"Yes, Brother Xue, there's nothing to be afraid of in there, let's go in quickly." Su Xiaowei also agreed.
Xue Heng saw that the bride was covered with a veil and he couldn't see Cheng Qian's face, so he felt a little relieved.
Compared to other secret rooms, which were full of traces of him and Cheng Qian's time together, this secret room seemed particularly clean, with nothing that could affect his mentality.
Now he had nothing to fear and walked bravely into the secret room.
"Are we really going to get married?" Xue Heng pretended to struggle. Not seeing Cheng Qian's ghost in this secret room, he was eager to finish recording the wedding ceremony and get off work.
As long as he runs fast enough, the evil spirits can't catch up with him.
"It's already this late, what are you still asking?" Meng Yu actually pushed Xue Heng directly to the side of the coffin, but he didn't dare to look inside the coffin.
The paper figurines dressed in groom's clothes sounded scary just from what Yan Muhuai said.
At this critical moment, Xue Heng didn't waste any more time and extended his hand to the bride sitting in the coffin, "Chun Ni, let's get married. I'll take you away from here."
