Zu An snorted coldly, directly took up Hongmeng Qi, and struck the coffin with a palm.
There was a loud bang, and the coffin was blown to pieces. At the same time, a lot of smoke and dust blew into the face. I don't know if it was lime or ashes.
I don’t know if this thing is poisonous...
Although Zu An is immune to all poisons, he is not so stubborn as to try all the poisons.
With the help of the force of the counter-shock, he pulled back some distance. Who knew that the sedan chair was already waiting behind him, and he was instantly loaded into it.
Zu An was lucky and originally thought of having a showdown with the paper bride, but who knew that the sedan chair was empty.
He was alone, and everything that entered his eyes was red.
As expected, the windows and the curtains in front couldn't be pushed open.
Zu An already had experience, he directly picked up the Hongmeng Yuanshi Jing and flew out through the top of the sedan chair.
But he was soon startled, because he found that the sedan was gone, the coffin was gone, and the grove was gone.
He is now in a farmhouse, with only a yard separated by a fence and a few simple rooms. However, it is decorated with lights and 囍 characters posted everywhere.
Apparently this is a wedding venue.
There were more than a dozen tables of wine and food in the yard, and there were men, women, and children sitting there. Judging by their attire, they seemed to be the neighbors in the village.
Zu An frowned, thinking that these were probably transformed from paper brides and paper figurines. Seeing that they had no intention of attacking him, he was too lazy to take action, but looked around to find the real owner.
"The auspicious time has come, please invite the bride and groom!"
A man who looked like a master of ceremonies screamed in the lobby.
There was a violent coughing sound, which was heartbreaking, as if the lungs were about to be coughed out.
Zu An looked around and saw a man wearing the groom's official attire walking out. No, he didn't come out by himself, but was helped out by two people.
His whole body was limp, and his feet seemed to have no strength. If the two people next to him didn't help support him, he would probably fall to the ground immediately.
"Is this the groom?" Zu An frowned. Because he was newlywed, he had obviously put on makeup, but despite this, his face was still as gold as paper, and he looked as angry as a gossamer.
You're almost dead and you're still getting married?
At this time, the villagers’ whispers came from nearby:
"Are you afraid that Cai's baby will die? Why do you want to get married now?"
"Don't you know, the Cai family bought a child bride a few years ago because of their son's illness. They originally wanted to get married in a few years. However, the Cai family's baby seems to be dying recently, so the Cai family held a wedding for their son to see if it would work.
Save your son’s life.”
"It's a pity that Madam Dou has a beautiful life and is hard-working, but she ends up marrying such a consumptive man. She might end up being a widow after marriage."
"Shh, you are here to have a wedding banquet after all. If the host hears these unfavorable words, he won't be able to kick you out."
"What are you afraid of? The Cai family's father has died a long time ago. Now the only male is that sick man. Who is going to beat me?"
…

At this moment, a burst of exclamation came, and it turned out that the bride came out.
"Although my head is covered, my figure is really good."
"You haven't seen her since you haven't been back to your hometown all year round. She is like a flower from all over the country."
"Oh, what a pity."
…
Zu An couldn't help but narrow his pupils as he looked at the bride who was wearing a bright red wedding dress. The wedding dress she wore was exactly the same as that of the paper bride.
Unfortunately, his head is covered with a red hijab, so his appearance cannot be seen.
Zu An was also a little impatient with waiting, and was ready to rush forward and pull out the paper lady.
Who would have thought that just as he was about to rush forward, the villagers next to him were frightened and pulled him back: "Young master, I can't help it. The bride's hijab can only be uncovered by the groom in the bridal chamber, otherwise it will be unlucky."
Zu An: "..."
What do these people look like? Why do they think I'm a bad guy who's teasing someone else's bride?
He was about to explain when suddenly there was a commotion from the other side of the auditorium.
It turned out that after a violent cough, the groom suddenly vomited out a mouthful of blood, and then fell straight to the ground.
Because he had to pay homage to the church, the two men just let him go temporarily, but they didn't expect that something would happen in such a short period of time.
The two hurriedly went to help him, but soon turned pale and said tremblingly: "Brother Cai... is gone!"
When Granny Cai saw this, she rushed forward and cried loudly: "My son!"
The whole scene suddenly became noisy.
In the end, the wedding turned into a funeral. The red cloth and the characters "囍" were all torn off and replaced with white cloth and the characters "Die".
If Zu An realized something, no wonder he bumped into the wedding procession and the funeral procession at the same time in the woods before, and the two processes directly collided with each other. It turned out to be this.
At this time, the bride also changed her clothes and came out wearing sackcloth and mourning.
This time she didn't wear a red hijab, so she finally saw her face clearly.
Who else is it if she’s not a paper bride?
It's just that she looks much purer now, and the timidity between her eyebrows makes it difficult for people to associate her with that charming paper bride.
Zu An snorted coldly: "Paper Bride, what the hell are you doing? Do you think I can't recognize you after taking off your makeup?"
He stepped forward to grab the other person, but the woman shrank back in fear.
Zu An only felt the air in front of him fluctuate, and the scene quickly changed again.
Now there are no guests in the courtyard, and there are no funeral banners in the room.
Instead, Lady Paper and Grandma Cai depended on each other, and every day they paid homage to the plaques on the incense table for their deceased father-in-law and husband.
But for some reason, Zu An always felt that there was something extremely weird, but he couldn't put it in words.
Zu An was about to go over to confront the paper bride, but saw a father and son barging in.
The father and son looked like they were surnamed Zhang and were bullies in the village. Seeing that there were no men in the Cai family, they targeted these two women.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Grandma Cai couldn't survive it, so she committed herself to Laoer Zhang.
The Paper Bride is quite stubborn and never obeys Brother Zhang.
She is smart and witty, and now that Granny Cai has become Brother Zhang's stepmother, she makes full use of this identity to protect herself.
Brother Zhang was so angry that he secretly found a poison. One day, Granny Cai was sick and wanted to eat pork rib soup. Paper Bride made it for her, but Brother Zhang added the poison in the middle.
He originally planned to poison Granny Cai with his paper bride, so that he would have a handle on her. In addition, without Granny Cai's protection, she would not be at his mercy when she was alone.
But he had calculated everything, but he didn't expect that the bowl of soup was accidentally drunk by Mr. Zhang, who died of poison on the spot.
Things quickly escalated. Brother Zhang was worried that he would be found out, so he framed the paper bride and said it was the paper bride who poisoned his father.
Brother Zhang spent money to collude with the county magistrate, beat the paper bride into submission, and was quickly taken to the execution ground for execution.
The paper bride was wronged so much that she swore to the sky. As a result, after her death, there was snow in June and a severe drought for three years...
Seeing this scene, Zu An thought deeply, why is it so similar to "The Injustice of Dou E"? I think I heard someone call her Dou E's wife at the wedding before. Could this paper bride be Dou E?
At this moment, his eyes flashed. A paper bride wearing prison uniform and shackles appeared in front of him. She looked at him with a pair of pitiful eyes: "Master, do you think that little brother Zhang should die?"
"Of course it should be..." Although the Japanese Bride is an enemy, anyone will feel sympathy after seeing her past. Zu An was about to reply, but in the middle of the sentence, the alarm suddenly rose.
From the beginning, he always felt that something was wrong, but now he finally realized it.
That is, there are no mirrors in their homes, or even in the courtroom behind them, from the beginning to the end!
It is impossible for a normal family to be without this thing. No wonder it has been feeling a bit disharmonious just now.
A terrible suspicion suddenly arose in his mind, and he hurriedly took out the Prince of Qin's gallbladder that he had obtained in the secret realm from his arms and took a look in front of him, and found that his appearance at this time was exactly the same as that of Brother Zhang!
He suddenly understood, and sneered at the woman in front of him and said: "This is your plan, show your past, use people's sympathy and compassion, and help you kill that little brother Zhang with righteous indignation. But you brought me to this place.
People who don’t know that they have unknowingly assumed the identity of Brother Zhang. Once we personally say that Brother Zhang deserves to die, it should satisfy a certain rule of this world, and in the end we will be easily obliterated by you."
No wonder the folks at the wedding came to hold him back, because everyone knew that Brother Zhang coveted the beauty of the bride and thought he was going to wear a red hijab.
After he said these words, the surrounding scenes were shattered into pieces, and he returned to the previous ice cave.
The weak Dou family lady also disappeared, and the coquettish and ruthless Paper Bride appeared in front of him again. At this time, her face was pale and blood was flowing from the corners of her mouth. It was obvious that she had suffered backlash.
"After so many years, you are the only one who can see through the illusion." Paper Bride looked unwillingly and stared at him, "I don't know how many people with higher cultivation level than me ended up hating this. How did you do it?"
