Chapter 1584 Wedding Room

"Did you hear what that woman said to me?" Yao Shunyu looked at Li Bai with complex eyes, "She said that if you dare to talk to me like this, you are stealing a man's heart? She...how could she come up with such a thing? words?"

Li Bai nodded sternly, "It seems that these villagers are more cruel than we thought. Not only were the men who failed to escape killed by various means, but they even spared the corpses of these beasts.

To be fair, after they arrived in Blackwater Village, although the customs here were weird, the food provided by the villagers was pretty good. But now that they think about it, the food made from pickled meat that they don't know what kind of meat it is is also very weird.

Unable to think about it any more, Yao, Shunyu, and Li Bai forced themselves to calm down. Spending the night alive was the biggest problem at hand.

"Also, we have never met the mysterious village chief of Heishui Village. According to what the villagers said, the village chief has a high prestige in the village, because the village chief's words represent the meaning of the Empress Zhusheng." Yao, Shunyu I clearly remember the way Wu Damei was so frightened that her two legs were trembling. That was fear from the bottom of her heart and could not be faked.

But this time, Li Bai shook his head slightly, "What you said is wrong. This should all be the meaning of Empress Zhusheng, and the village chief is just the spokesperson of Empress Zhusheng, or he plays the role of a sounding board."

Li Bai didn't say this casually. She learned from the full-time priests in ancient sacrificial ceremonies. In her opinion, the village chief of Heishui Village is very similar to the priest. Everyone is in awe, even fear of the village chief, and more importantly Because the village chief has the ability to communicate with the gods, the so-called Empress Zhusheng.

What Wu Damei said in panic also confirmed this point. Wu Damei hoped that the village chief would say a few nice words for her in front of Empress Zhusheng.

If you want to find out who the Empress Zhusheng is, this mysterious village chief is an unavoidable link.

…

It was late at night, and three shabby white lanterns appeared on the path of Heishui Village. The candlelight in the lanterns was erratic, as if they would go out in the next second.

"Brother Shunyu, Sister Li Bai, you...you walk slower, I...I'm scared."

A tall but thin man followed Yao, Shun, Yu and Li Bai. If the first two people didn't like to talk to him, it seemed that he could stick to him.

"Be strong, we are also afraid, but fear is useless, we all have to face reality."

Li Bai tried his best to comfort Li Maochun, but also secretly observed him to see if he would find any flaws.

This college student named Li Maochun was pale and looked malnourished. His body was swaying slightly as he walked. He was holding a white lantern and looking around nervously.

It was late at night, but the village was not completely black, but a kind of gray, as if there was a thick fog covering the entire village.

Yao, Shunyu, and Li Bai were used to this kind of weird scene at the beginning of classic horror movies, but for Li Maochun, it was life-threatening. His upper and lower teeth were trembling. Yao, Shunyu, and Yao were even worried that he would die before he even arrived at the mission location. Fainted from fear.

But it doesn't matter, because even if Li Maochun faints, he and Li Bai will definitely carry him over. Even if he dies, he must die at the location required by the mission, and he cannot be allowed to drag down others.

But before that, Yao, Shun, and Yu had one more important thing to confirm, "Li Maochun, which task do you choose?"

Li Maochun almost cried when he heard the word "mission". The scene of the painting teacher's mysterious disappearance last night still lingered in his mind like a nightmare, "Brother Shunyu, I...can I not choose?"

Yao Shunyu suddenly stood up, then turned around and stared at him with a half-smiling expression, "Okay, then you just wait to stay and be the husband of these villagers, you thin-skinned and tender-bodied one" , they will like it very much.”

Thinking of the ferocious looks of those villagers, Li Maochun was worried about death, at least that's what he showed, "I was wrong, this is better, I don't understand anything, Brother Shunyu, please...you and Sister Li Bai Give me an idea."

I don’t know whether it was Li Bai who felt sympathy or another temptation, but Li Bai said: "If I were you, I would choose to repair the road. After all, to build the bridge, you have to go to the waterside. The black water river may be damaged at night." Restless."

"Restless?" Li Maochun was startled, then he didn't know what he thought of, and he looked even more frightened.

"That's what I think, but the final decision rests with you." Li Bai didn't bother to argue with him anymore. Regardless of whether this person was Crimson or not, it would be difficult for him to survive tonight.

Li Maochun made up his mind and nodded vigorously, "Okay, I will listen to Sister Li Bai and choose to repair the road. The repair road sounds much safer."

After the decision was made, the mission location of the three people was also clear. Yao, Shun and Yu's mission was to kill people. The location was in the barren hills west of the village, not far from the wild temple last night. As for who they wanted to kill, he didn't know.

Li Bai's task was to set a fire, and the location was in the village. It was said that the house to be burned was quite evil, but the villagers refused to reveal a word more.

The road Li Maochun wants to repair is located in the mass grave at the west end of the village.

According to the villagers, these are the folk custom projects of the Zhusheng Conference over the years. It is difficult for outsiders to have the opportunity to participate. These are all gifts from the Zhusheng Empress.

The tasks of the three of them were not carried out simultaneously. Yao and Shunyu's murder project was the first, Li Bai's arson was the second, and Li Maochun's road repair project was the last.

In order to prevent accidents, Yao Shunyu and Li Bai decided to bring Li Maochun with them. After all, no one trusted him. If they were on a mission and Li Maochun secretly tripped them up, it would be bad.

Soon, the group followed the road they took last night and came to the foot of the barren mountain in the west of the village. It was called a barren mountain, but it was actually a large earth slope of some size. After telling Li Bai a few words, Yao Shunyu turned around and set out on the mountain climbing road alone.

The grayness in front of him was like fog, and it was more like countless strange shadows shaking in the depths of the barren mountain. Yao Shunyu climbed up along a trampled path. About 10 minutes later, suddenly, a dilapidated wooden house appeared in front of him.

The wooden house was hidden behind layers of withered trees. It was difficult to find it without getting close, but what really made Yao Shunyu feel a chill on his back was the layout of this wooden house.

There were festive couplets posted outside the door of the wooden house, and red cloth strips hung under the eaves, making it look festive, as if it was a bridal chamber for a new bride.

There were two red lanterns hanging outside the door, but I didn’t know if there were no candles in them, or if there were candles in the past but they were extinguished now. In short, the lanterns were extinguished at this moment, but the dark red lantern skins swayed gently in the night wind, like a pair of eyes of a giant beast that refused to close before dying.
