Chapter 284 Poison Sacrifice: The Ghost King Marries
Tang Yejue, who shared the same body as Piaomiao, left the Great Buddha Temple, but for a moment he didn't know where he was going. In this barren mountain and there were no homes anywhere, where could this woman's bones be buried? Moreover, where could they be buried? Isn't it so unreasonable that she can't find it anywhere, so she can't be reincarnated?
Walking back along the original road, there was Snake Valley in front of the left, and there was a dead end in front of the right. But for some reason, Tang Yejue discovered that there was an extremely narrow path full of thorns.
If he had a human body, he would definitely not be able to get through it, but at this moment, he is a snake. Wouldn't it be easy to think about the thorn cave? Maybe, there will be something unexpected over there? Thinking like this, controlling With ethereal movements, Tang Yejue quickly jumped through the thorny path.
However, after getting through, there is still a gloomy forest on the other side of the road. Against the backdrop of the night, this deep mountain and old forest has towering ancient trees, blocking the sky and the sun. Not even the moonlight can shine in, as if it contains profound and endless things. The darkness, the creepy vines and monster trees, and the mournful howling of owls. Just when all of this made people think that they should leave as soon as possible, Tang Yejue discovered that there was a fire not far away.
Looking carefully, the firelight actually came from the pale paper lantern.
Several pale-faced sedan bearers, dragging an unusually luxurious paper sedan, jumped excitedly in the direction of Tang Yejue. In addition to the bearers, there were people playing suona in front of them, but the person playing the suona was not Zhi. There were six monks in yellow robes. The one walking in the front was a matchmaker with colorful paintings.
This was the first time Tang Yejue saw such a strange sight. He dodged aside, thinking that he must make way for the "bride" at this time.
However, when the sedan bearers and the others were happily jumping past Tang Yejue, scattering paper money and playing suonas, Tang Yejue glanced at the sedan chair.
The dark wind blew by and just opened the curtain of the sedan. But there was no bride in the sedan, and it was actually empty!
Where is the bride? Where is she going to marry? Who is she going to marry?
Wait, is it possible... Tang Yejue ordered Piaomiao to grow bigger, and then blocked the road in the middle. The honor guard carrying the sedan suddenly stopped. The matchmaker who was walking at the front said displeasedly: "Where did the monsters come from? How dare you Block the way of our Ghost King!?"
"Ghost King?" Tang Yejue asked, "Isn't the person in charge of this forest the priestess of the Great Buddha Temple? Why is there another Ghost King coming out?"
The matchmaker snorted: "Little snake demon, you are so stupid! The Huba of the Great Buddha Temple is the Ghost King! Now the Ghost King wants to get married, how dare you stand in the way?"
Huba is the honorific title given to the priests by the King of Dai. Tang Yejue had read about it in ancient books before. So, this sedan is really the sedan of the priestess? Since her body is not there, her soul is trapped in the Great Buddha Temple. , so they carried an empty sedan. Suddenly, an idea flashed through Tang Yejue's mind.
His eyes wandered, and he immediately said kindly to the matchmaker: "Yes, yes, yes, I am a new cultivator and don't know the name of the Ghost King. I'm sorry, I also want to attend the Ghost King's wedding. You see... …”
"Huh, that's a sign of recognition," the matchmaker said, extending her hand to Tang Yejue, "Come up here, I'll take you to see him."
Tang Yejue made Piaomiao turn into a little snake and lie on the ghost matchmaker's body.
But whether it is a wedding in the underworld or a wedding in the underworld, the bride must be welcomed. What they want to win is definitely not the soul of the ghost king, but her bones. Only with the bones present can one marry a living person. This is eternal.
Law. So if you follow the wedding sedan, you will definitely find the woman’s bones!
Tang Yejue didn't expect that things would develop so smoothly. As long as he could find the bones and take them back, he would be able to save Lu Zhanfeng... Wait, why did this guard of honor heading towards the ghost temple to welcome the bride!? Wasn't it to welcome the bride?
The corpse of the ghost king? Tang Yejue panicked for a moment and wanted to jump off the ghost matchmaker, but the team did not go through the main entrance, but jumped in from the side door of the temple.
Later, the honor guard stopped in front of a golden Buddha statue in the side hall.
Tang Yejue pulled the ghost matchmaker's shoulders and found that she actually walked into the hall and bowed three times to the Buddha statue!
A ghost is actually worshiping Buddha!?
However, the next second, Tang Yejue discovered something strange.
The face of the Buddha statue is different from ordinary Buddha statues. It is neither a sign of compassion nor a sign of Buddha. Both eyeballs of the golden body have fallen off, and black water has been flowing from the eye sockets.
Then, an unforgettable scene occurred that made Tang Yejue feel nauseous and vomiting.
The golden body fell off piece by piece, exposing the white bones inside! The bones even had hair and were wearing the clothes of a priest - the bones of the priestess were actually hidden inside the strange Buddha statue in the temple.
!? It turns out that this ghost king always knew where her bones were. It wasn’t that she couldn’t find the body and couldn’t be reincarnated, but that she never thought about reincarnation!
Yes, he is a ghost king who has been practicing for thousands of years. He can do whatever he wants here. How could he want to be reincarnated?
But I heard the old man in the village said that if the bones are not resting in peace, the spirit of the soul will become more and more violent. How can this woman's bones be able to rest in peace if they have been hidden here?
Thinking of this, Tang Yejue had already made a decision. He ordered Miao Miao to return to him and Lu Zhanfeng quickly, so that he could also regain his consciousness.
After all, a misty snake cannot carry corpses.
At this moment, Lu Zhanfeng had long been enshrined in the center of the altar. Soul-calling flags were fluttering around him, and together with the hanging vines of white gauze in the center of the altar, the atmosphere was extremely strange. Lu Zhanfeng looked helplessly at the side.
The ghost monks were doing some weird worshiping movements. He just wanted Tang Yejue to return to his soul quickly——
He glanced at Tang Yejue who was leaning next to him.
Unexpectedly, the greedy priestess said that she didn't like Miao people, but she wanted to marry the two of them together. Why not, she agreed on the spot. At this moment, Tang Yejue, who was unconscious, was leaning on himself like a dead man.
Next to him, he was still breathing weakly.
"Hey, are you back yet?" Lu Zhanfeng asked tentatively.
The people beside him didn't react. Lu Zhanfeng sighed softly.
The next second, he suddenly felt the person next to him trembling slightly. Just as Lu Zhanfeng was about to look over, he heard Tang Yejue say in a low voice: "Don't look at me, be careful not to be discovered."
Lu Zhanfeng just sat down and didn't turn his head.
Tang Yejue said in a whispering voice again: "I found her bones, but... you have to come with me. Piaomiao can't transport and bury her, so she has to rely on us."
