Chapter 348: The Strange Bride
Li Fu's eyes were filled with resentment, and he spoke very seriously, explaining to Lin Chen in an attempt to increase his credibility.
But what he didn't notice was that it was already too late. The sky was bright, and as Li Baotian was standing before dawn, it became increasingly dark in front of him. However, the corners of his mouth became increasingly weird as the deserted village gradually brightened up.
Until finally, a red figure stood outside the door.
Li Fu didn't know all this.
Li Baotian's figure blocked the sunrise in the east, obstructing Li Fu's sight. He was so excited that he didn't notice anything.
Perhaps, this is also related to the fact that he knows he is powerless to change the situation and his bad mentality.
"Li Fu, what are the abilities of Li Baotian's wife?" Seeing this figure, Lin Chen asked Li Fu.
Li Fu shuddered and said, "Her ability is related to her death."
"Zhang Qing's death was indeed related to us. That day, we were starving and cold, so we went to Li Baotian's house again. There was no food left in the deserted village. We just wanted to borrow some food, but Zhang Qing didn't agree at all."
"She said we were just slaves in their family and that she was very generous by not asking us for money, which angered a lot of people."
"In fact, she has offended too many villagers by being so arrogant and looking down on us."
"And we don't want to be in debt. Their interest is too high, and we can't pay it back in a lifetime. In these gloomy days, coupled with the poor harvest the following year, naturally no one wants to work."
"That day, what started as an argument turned into a quarrel, and in the end... several women from the village started fighting with her and scratched her face."
At this point, Li Fu's eyes were filled with memories, as if the events of the past were replaying in his mind.
He said slowly:
"She is a woman who loves beauty very much. She usually dresses up gorgeously, which is completely different from ordinary villagers."
"Maybe this is the girl from the city..."
"She was disfigured and could not accept reality. She became depressed and silent from then on. She always observed everyone in the village from the dark. The look in her eyes under her messy hair makes me feel nervous even when I think about it now."
"But surprisingly, Li Baotian, the double-faced man, did not give up on her. Instead, he held a wedding with her and invited all our villagers."
"Ten miles of red decorations, firecrackers blasted, the scene was very luxurious."
"At the wedding banquet, the food was something we hadn't eaten many times in our lives. It was delicious and the dishes were arranged in an orderly manner. The life of a wealthy family like this is really not something we ordinary people can compare to."
"But on that day, we didn't dare to eat. Yes, we were very nervous. We were all too afraid of Li Baotian's family. Even I, the village chief, couldn't raise my head in front of Li Baotian family."
"Moreover, on that day, we all felt an inexplicable sense of oppression, so oppressive that we couldn't breathe. In the end, the wedding banquet ended just like that, and when everyone left, they all felt like they had survived a disaster. We originally thought that the matter was over, but..."
When Li Fu said this, a hint of fear appeared on his face.
The beautiful red figure behind him was already walking towards him, her steps still so silent.
Li Fu continued to explain, as if he wanted to pour out everything. He was completely lost in his memories and didn't even notice that the faces of everyone sitting opposite him had turned extremely pale.
"But that night, she actually committed suicide in the bridal chamber!"
"He committed suicide by hanging."
"The rope that fell from the beam strangled her neck, causing her to suffocate. Her eyes bulged outwards and her tongue stuck out. She looked extremely horrible."
"That bright red wedding dress looked as if it were stained with blood."
"We were all extremely shocked when we found out about this the next day, and Li Baotian's family's happy occasion turned into a sad one."
"Since ancient times, the collision of red and white has been a taboo, representing weirdness and bad luck. Although they did not happen on the same day, they happened in the same place and belonged to the same person."
“The villagers were terrified by this incident.”
"In addition, no one could have imagined that we could go to Li Baotian's house for dinner twice within two days!"
"The funeral was over in the chaos, but there was a strange atmosphere during the funeral ceremony. There were actually two coffins in Li Baotian's house!"
"Although Li Baotian said that the second mate was prepared for him, and that he was dead after losing his wife, this strange incident made everyone even more uneasy. A haze rose in everyone's heart, and they were in a daze all day, as if they had a premonition that something bad was going to happen."
"Sure enough, that night, Zhang Qing appeared again. She had an inexplicable power. Now I know what that power is. It's ghost power..."
"She is simply an evil ghost wandering in the world."
"That night, all the villagers died, including me and Li Baotian."
"The cause of death was cannibalism. In that hellish scene, she had a hideous face but was actually laughing crazily."
"Her ability is based on all the resentment and pain. This is why Li Baotian keeps jars of the villagers' flesh and blood at home. She wants the villagers to eat themselves in order to increase their resentment and improve her strength."
"It's just that because she was completely transformed into a ghost before the copy was formed, even though she is invincible, she has certain limitations. She can only appear on the tenth day, which is their wedding day."
…
Li Fu's voice stopped.
When Lin Chen heard this, he suddenly asked, "Is she the woman wearing a red dress, a phoenix crown on her head, a shawl on her body, a red silk wedding dress with a train that swept the ground, and a pair of delicate gold-thread embroidered shoes under her skirt, but with scratches all over her face?"
Li Fu was stunned, and subconsciously raised his head and asked: "How did you know?"
But the next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank.
In the distance, Li Baotian's figure had also disappeared.
Previously, Li Baotian blocked the view between Li Fu and the Rule Sun.
He finally saw the sun in the sky. It had risen without him noticing, and the sky was bright!
At this time, it has reached the tenth day!
"Because... I'm standing behind you, Uncle Fu."
At this moment, a soft voice sounded from behind Li Fu. Li Fu trembled and turned around quickly.
Suddenly, he saw a figure wearing a red wedding dress, who looked exactly like the one Lin Chen described, right behind him!
The scar on her face looked extremely hideous, and she had an extremely creepy sneer.
Next to the figure in the red wedding dress was Li Baotian, whose entire body was covered in black scales!
"Zhang... Zhang Qing!?"
Li Fu's face changed drastically. His face instantly turned pale and weak.
Zhang Qing's face was covered with extremely hideous scars, completely different from the photos Lin Chen had seen before. Her voice was gentle, but her eyes were full of resentment.
The moment Li Fu turned around, she attacked him directly, leaving him no chance at all, and was extremely ruthless.
There was only a "puff" sound.
Her snow-white palm pierced Li Fu's chest and grasped his heart. Then, a continuous force of rules emerged from Li Fu and poured into Zhang Qing's body.
Li Fu's face was full of pain , but he was no match for Zhang Qing in the first place. In addition, his abilities were consumed too much and had not recovered yet, so he was unable to resist at all.
"I've been waiting for this moment for a long time."
With the influx of rules and authority, Zhang Qing couldn't help but reveal a hint of satisfaction on her face. The ghost power in her body surged unscrupulously, forming a strong gust of wind. The faces of everyone were distorted, and they quickly mobilized their strength to resist.
"What should we do? Zhang Qing is obviously not a good person, and Li Baotian has become like this. What should we do? Should we believe Li Fu's words and submit what he said to the truth mission?" Duan Jiebo said with sweat on his head.
He was anxious, because Li Baotian and Zhang Qing were definitely not good people. Their actions and appearance said it all. The impact of the ghost power was also very terrifying to him.
It is very rare for him to stand here as he has not broken through to five stars.
People like Duan Qi and Chen Yuan could hardly stand at this time, but they still used all their ghost power to resist Zhang Qing's pressure.
This Zhang Qing is simply an extremely terrifying and peerless ghost king!
"Old Duan, you are obsessed. What Li Fu said may not be true. Look at Zhang Qing's scars. They are not something that can be scratched out by a few village women."
Lin Chen's expression remained unchanged. He was the only one present who could face Zhang Qing without changing his expression.
Duan Jibo was stunned, then quickly looked at Zhang Qing, and the next moment, he took a breath of cold air.
That face was very scary. He was misled by Li Fu's words and only now could he see clearly that the huge scratch on the face was actually made up of dozens or even hundreds of tiny scratches.
This is definitely not the work of an ordinary woman.
"The water here is very deep. I can only say that if you submit the clues you have sorted out now, you will only lose your only chance to pass the copy." Lin Chen looked deeply at the dying Li Fu.
That old ghost kept misleading them until the very end, and one can only say that he had ulterior motives.
"Yes, brother. Zhang Qing, Li Baotian, and Li Fu are probably all fake. No matter who tells the truth, it is not credible at the moment!" Duan Qi said with difficulty under the pressure of Zhang Qing's ghost power.
Her face was pale at this moment. Her ghost power was consumed too much in such a short time. It seemed that even with Duan Jibo's protection, she could not hold on any longer .
Not only her, the three members of Chen Yuan's team were in an even worse condition. Beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping from their skin. Before they collided with Zhang Qing, they already looked like they were about to faint.
Lin Chen looked back, then suddenly stretched out one hand and clenched it towards the void.
The invisible ghost power seemed to be grasped by his body and he squeezed it hard.
There was a sound of explosion coming from his hand, and a strong wave of wind rushed in all directions, blowing the debris in the yard away like a cannonball.
Even the ghosts of the minions and villagers lying on the ground suffered as a result and were blown everywhere.
The ghost power suppression of Zhang Qing, the powerful ghost king, was actually broken by Lin Chen with just a pinch!
