The bride jumped into the well. Once the news came out, the wedding procession in Liujia village immediately dispersed. Everyone was afraid of being held responsible.
Liu Fu discussed with the old man who was responsible for calling the door. From his address, Bai Xiaowen knew that he was Liu Fu's fourth uncle. Everyone in the village called him Master Liu Si.
After discussing, they decided to gather the villagers to testify that Hua Yurong committed suicide by jumping into the well. It had nothing to do with the Liu family. Anyway, the old master of the Hua family had passed away. As an outsider, there was no one left in the Hua family. No one would reverse the verdict for Hua Yurong.
A group of people shoveled soil and filled up the well.
Bai Xiaowen, as a bystander, watched this scene quietly. When the Liu family left and night fell, the sealed well suddenly moved.
The soil loosened, and a woman in a red wedding dress floated out. It was Hua Yurong. There were still bloodstains on her forehead. Her whole body was soaked. Her skin was slightly swollen. Under her eyelids, there were two bloodstains …
There was no doubt that Hua Yurong had turned into a ghost.
Bai Xiaowen did not know whether it was an illusion or not, but he saw a horrible smile on Hua Yurong's face.
He instantly understood that the Liu family's kidnapping of the bride was just the beginning. Hua Yurong, who had turned into an Evil Ghost, had officially started her revenge on the villagers of Liujia village!
What made Bai Xiaowen's hair stand on end was that Hua Yurong was looking in his direction, and that gaze was definitely able to see his existence. However, Hua Yurong did not stay for long. She floated out of the courtyard.
The scenery around him changed.
When the scenery was fixed, Bai Xiaowen found himself in a dry well. Above him was the mouth of the well, about three to five meters high. Under his feet was soft sand.
At the mouth of the well, Old Han's voice came, "Captain, are you there?"
"I'm here." Bai Xiaowen answered.
There was a gasp. Li Shuyi said hurriedly, "Xiaowen, you're so scary. You disappeared for so long."
Bai Xiaowen said, "There was an accident."
"Come out now, we've encountered something strange in the house too. We need your help," Qiao Rui said.
Bai Xiaowen agreed. Just as he was about to jump up, he suddenly saw a corner of red cloth buried in the sand. He pulled out the red cloth and found that it was a dirty and tattered red veil.
"Hua Yurong's red veil is here, but her bones are not …" Bai Xiaowen squatted down and rummaged through the sand. He did not find anything else, so he shook his head in disappointment and chose to go up the well.
A few of his teammates surrounded him, but their expressions were not good.
Bai Xiaowen said, "I entered a mirror dimension under the well. It should be an illusion. I replayed the process of the wedding day of the Liu family and made a lot of discoveries … My previous speculation was wrong. The person who became the ghost bride was not the second sister of the Zhou family, but Hua Yurong, who was mentioned at the beginning of the diary. This is not the Zhou Family, but the Hua Family. "
Everyone was a little surprised, but they quickly accepted this fact. Then, Qiao Rui began to explain.
"Shu Yi and I were in the house, and we saw a coffin … The coffin was nailed shut with a seven-inch nail. I tried to open the coffin, but a ghost appeared and attacked us … Then, we escaped. We wanted to discuss this with you, but Han Xu said that you disappeared after going down the well … We could only wait. "
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes. "Is that ghost very powerful? You couldn't even defeat it? "
"The ghost was protected by the white stone, so it was immune to damage," Qiao Rui said. "Although the moment it attacked, it would no longer be immune to damage, but the ghost was very strong. Even Shu Yi couldn't seize that moment of opportunity."
"Let's go take a look."
Bai Xiaowen led his teammates to the door of the house and pushed it open.
A gust of cold wind blew. The house was empty except for a red coffin in the middle. As Qiao Rui said, it was nailed shut with a large nail.
A white figure appeared. It was an old man with silver-white hair and a beard. However, his eyes were white, and he didn't look very kind.
The old man roared and rushed over.
Li Shuyi rushed forward and attacked with both swords. However, when the swords hit the old man, they sliced through the air and didn't cause any damage. The old man stepped to the side and kicked Li Shuyi's chin.
Li Shuyi didn't have time to change his move, so Qiao Rui shot out a Shattering Scale. However, the old man seemed to have sensed it. His foot paused slightly, and he stopped attacking. The Shattering Scale's sonic arrow missed again.
With a dull thud, the old man raised his leg and kicked out like a spring. Li Shuyi was kicked to the ground.
"This old ghost is very powerful, but it seems like he can't leave this house."
Li Shuyi got up and said. Fortunately, the old man stopped attacking midway and didn't have enough strength. She wasn't seriously injured and didn't lose much HP.
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes. This old man was much more powerful than the Host Ghosts they encountered outside the village. He seemed to be able to use the "White Stone Protection" state consciously. Moreover, he was agile. He seemed to be a martial artist.
Seeing the old man rushing over again, Han Xu was about to raise his shield. Suddenly, Bai Xiaowen opened his mouth.
"Hua Yurong!"
These three words seemed to have some kind of magical power. The moment they were shouted, the old man's attack paused, and the coffin that was sealed by the seven-inch long nail gave off a slight tremor, as if something was slapping on it from inside.
Bai Xiaowen sighed. It seemed that Hua Yurong was the key to communication. He continued, "We're here to help you. Is there any way we can communicate? "
The coffin stopped shaking. The upper half of a figure wearing a red wedding dress appeared on the coffin. It was Hua Yurong. It looked as if she had just sat up from her coffin.
Hua Yurong stared at the five members of the White Phoenix team. Beneath her eyes were traces of blood and tears.
"How can I help you?" Bai Xiaowen braced himself and asked.
There was no reply.
Qiao Rui said, "Let me try."
As a Soul Whisperer, Qiao Rui had the ability to communicate with ghosts. However, the ghosts of Huai Wang Village rejected him so he couldn't communicate with them.
Now that the ghost bride, Hua Yurong, seemed to have the desire to communicate, Qiao Rui's ability could be put to good use.
Qiao Rui closed his eyes slightly. He seemed to be using his mind to activate Soul Whisperer to communicate with Hua Yurong.
Hua Yurong suddenly raised her hand. A gust of ghostly fog surged and condensed into Liu Fu's shadow. Her long ghostly claws tore Liu Fu's shadow apart. Then, another gust of ghostly fog condensed into Liu Si's shadow.
Hua Yurong obviously hated Liu Si's shadow. Her eyes were bloodshot. She waved her ghostly claws and opened her mouth to bite Liu Si. It seemed like she wouldn't stop until she ate Liu Si.
A notification came from the Spirit Realm.
