Chapter 15: The man in that village loves his wife

I don't know how these topics came about. I only know that even if I go out as little as possible, the eyes of the people around me are becoming more and more unpredictable and resistant.

I had a vague hunch that it was time to leave.

It's just that my parents and grandfather are buried here, and I grew up here, so I really can't bear to leave.

Late that night, I was thinking about leaving and was so uneasy about the outside world that I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night.

At this moment, the room suddenly became cold.

This familiar feeling...

I sat up suddenly, lit the candle, and saw a bride in a blood-red wedding dress standing there in the corner, looking at me with a faint look.

I was surprised at first, and then I was happy: "You're here?"

These days, I am alone, and now I feel particularly kind to the girl in the wedding dress.

But then I thought about the news that was spreading in the village about ghosts massacring the village——

"Have you...taken revenge?"

After killing so many people, he has completely become a evil spirit. What will the wedding girl do in the future?

When these words came out, the girl in the wedding dress trembled, and the blood-red wedding dress on her body became darker and darker at this moment.

Now under the dim candlelight, it seems to be black with red.

On her originally bluish-white face, two streaks of bright red blood tears once again flowed from her dark pupils. But the corners of her lips were raised, with an expression of peace and joy.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor, I have already taken my revenge!"

Terrible bloody tears slid down her stiff cheeks, and she slowly approached me. She was surrounded by a thick black mist, which was thicker than I had ever seen before.

It was as if her entire body was trapped in a thick mass of ink.

The wedding girl cried and laughed: "I went to that village and went to the first family that bought me, but they cursed me and blamed me for not beating me and even pawning it off a few times, so they lost everything.

Buyer’s money.”

"But, the night I went there, they bought another daughter-in-law from a neighbor's house..."

"Benefactor." The wedding girl's voice trembled: "In this world, is it true that our women's deaths are in vain?"

"I don't want them to have a good life!"

"Now that I have killed someone, I have become a fierce ghost. Those Xu Yanghuo burned me but could not kill me. So I went from house to house to find them and torture them to death!"

"Just like they torture other girls..."

As she spoke, the color became more and more crazy. The candlelight illuminated her body, and the black mist rolled up with ferocious malice, and layers of frost suddenly formed in the room!

Growing up, I have always accepted the concept of "being kind to others". If I had heard this a few days ago, I might have been frightened.

But now...

I slowly stretched out my hand and took the sharp black palm of the wedding girl - it was so cold that I shivered all over.

But I still held her tight.

"Don't be afraid, it's not your fault."

I thought of Chunyan: "Sometimes, people are much scarier than ghosts."

The girl in the wedding dress looked at me longingly and suddenly laughed. Red tears fell on the back of my hand, like ice beads, but there was a hot flame inside, which made my heart melt.

.

I just want to hold her in my arms and tell her: Well done!

The girl in the wedding dress looked at the drops of blood she shed, and her expression slowly calmed down:

"My benefactor, did you know? When those men were tortured, the sound could not be heard outside the house, but it could be heard inside the house."

"All the women in their family are awake."

"I heard a lot of rapid breathing."

"But no matter how much I torture these men, not a single woman makes a sound...I know they are not afraid - there is nothing more terrifying than these beasts!"

"They are happy and rejoicing."

"In the entire village, not a single woman made a sound."

The expression of the girl in the wedding dress was relaxed, as if the bluish-white color had receded. At this moment, the dim candlelight reflected a slightly gentle color.

She murmured:

"My benefactor, I committed such a crime and killed so many people. From then on I became a ghost with no possibility of reincarnation... But I have no regrets."

She smiled sweetly, and an invisible wave of light rippled around her, instantly warming up the cold room. Layers of white frost turned into water and soaked into the loess.

The air was damp and cool. Although it was still chilly, it couldn't be more comfortable in this summer.

My cold body was slowly warming up, but looking at her, I felt that the coldness was not worth mentioning, but I was just a little worried——

"Then why are you coming back?"

"I heard that there are practitioners outside who can exorcise evil spirits. Since you have taken revenge, you should hide far away!"

"Don't let those people find you!"

The girl in the wedding dress looked at me, with a soft light in her eyes that I had only seen in my mother's eyes in the past:

"My benefactor, I have taken my revenge, and there is nothing to miss."

"Don't you need merit?"

"Come," she held my palm with her backhand and slowly moved it towards her heart: "You should be able to see my weakness! It's right here."

"Kill me and eliminate harm for the people, and you will have merit."

I trembled all over and immediately retracted my hand: "You are crazy!"

Then he backed away desperately: "I don't want it! I don't want merit!"

"Benefactor!" The wedding girl stopped me.

"I have killed so many people, and I no longer want to stay in this world... Just kill me!"

"My benefactor, you are a woman, and you are destined to encounter demons. All monsters and ghosts regard you as a great helper. You will encounter many dangers in the future!"

"Didn't you say that the husband in the jade pendant needs merit to protect you?"

"Merit is not so easy to achieve."

"So, my benefactor... kill me!"

"A fierce ghost like me, with dozens of lives on my hands, has many merits."

"I don't want it!" I shook my head, looking at her eager look, I didn't know why tears welled up in layers, and my nose felt sour:

"I don't want such merit!"

"Obviously you have suffered so much and even lost your life, but those evildoers can continue to do evil and harm more people..."

"Killing them is obviously a meritorious deed!"

"Why should I kill you?"

"I don't! I don't want such merit!"

"Benefactor!" The girl in the wedding dress became anxious: "A fierce ghost like me should be killed by everyone... If you don't kill me, sooner or later I will be killed by other masters!"

I finally cried out, and the hot tears fell down one by one, making her tremble all over and quickly retract her hand.

"Everyone is going to die. If you don't kill him, he will die of old age. Wouldn't it be the same as death?"

"Why does this make you so guilty?"

I looked at the stunned wedding girl and shook my head firmly: "No matter what, I don't want such merit!"
