The Weird Wedding (Part 2)
Perhaps it was because of my urgent breathing sound, Huo Xiaoqi touched me and asked: "What's wrong?"
But I couldn't move my gaze, watching the bride walk by me, on the long white train of her wedding dress, a black figure sat, and I couldn't see that person's face clearly, from the messy black hair, suddenly a blood-red eye popped out, one eye, and that eye met mine as the bride walked by me.
I gasped, and suddenly a surge of blood rushed to my eyeballs, making them feel like they were about to burst. I wanted to close my eyes, but couldn't. I could even distinctly feel my eyeballs bulging out, with a sharp, tearing pain emanating from within.
。
I could feel Huo Xiaoqi's panicked shaking of my body, I could hear the few people beside me speaking in a jumbled manner, but I couldn't control my own body until I felt like blood was about to spurt out from my eye sockets when a figure blocked my line of sight.
In an instant, it was just an instant that happened. I no longer locked eyes with the black shadow on my wedding dress. My body suddenly moved, and with my eyes tightly closed, I started panting heavily. Huo Xiaoqi hastily hugged me in his arms, as if he wanted to lift me up. I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "I'm fine... I'm fine now!"
I leaned weakly into Huo Xiao's arms, although I didn't want to, but my body was always more honest than my heart. I felt a little powerless and could only lean on him for the time being.
"Are you a pig? You clearly know it's dangerous, but still want to go and check it out!"
This voice is all too familiar, it's Huo Xiao Ran! He didn't show up all day yesterday, how did he appear so timely now? Looking at him, I know that if it wasn't for him, I would have been dead this time!
I pushed away Huo Xiaoqi and slowly got up: "I'm going to the bathroom downstairs." Just as I was about to leave, my hand was caught by him.
"Nothing's wrong? I'll go with you!" Seeing the worry in his eyes, I was slightly surprised. I shook my head: "No need, it'll be fine soon!"
I didn't dare to shift my gaze back to the bride's body, because I knew that black shadow was still there. It wasn't until we reached the corner that I asked out loud: "What's going on? What is that thing?" I couldn't understand it - I had thought for sure it was because of some trick that witch had played on me that I could see Huo Xiao Ran, this ghost, but why could I suddenly see that thing now?
Although I didn't want to admit it was a ghost, what else could it be?
"How did I know this was going to happen? Of course it would be like that!" Huo Xiao Ran replied very casually.
"Don't try to fool me, I should only see you, why can I see others?" The word "ghost" is still hard for me to say out loud. Although my heart clearly knows that it's a ghost, and one with deep resentment, because in that line of sight, I distinctly felt hatred!
Huo Xiao Ran hooked up the corner of his mouth: "As for why you can see it, I really don't know, but I guess it should have something to do with ghost marriage or yin guai!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around to look at the stage, and the newlyweds had already walked down the red carpet. Although I was still a bit scared, when I looked over, the black shadow was gone. If it weren't for what happened to me earlier, I would have thought I just imagined it.
。
The bride was beautiful, smiling happily, and Anming beside her was also gazing at the bride with a happy face. Until the best man took out the ring, handed it to the groom, who slowly put it on the bride's finger, then began making vows.
Suddenly, I saw it again beside the bride, that black shadow flashed once more, only to disappear suddenly after a brief moment. My heart skipped a beat as a bad premonition rose from the bottom of my heart.
"What is it doing?" I stared, for at this moment a black object that looked like a hand was gently stroking the ring that the groom had just put on the bride's finger, the movement was so gentle, as if it were caressing! Was it the ring?
"How did I know!" Huo Xiao Ran replied with a sentence and then focused on looking at the podium.
But I was stunned: "You don't know? Aren't you a ghost? Can ghosts not know something?" In my mind, ghosts were all-powerful, and even taking someone's life would be as easy as turning one's hand over.
"Who says ghosts are all-powerful? Every world has its own rules that must be respected!"
Although I didn't quite understand what he meant, I roughly guessed that his meaning was that ghosts also have things they can and cannot do, or should not do.
Watching Anming holding the bride's hand, he raised the sparkler high, I was worried, but also attracted by the high cup tower on the stage, it was really beautiful, this kind of thing I had seen before, only at that time the cup tower was not built so big, so high, so good-looking.
Applause erupted in the venue, An Ming held the bride's hand and slowly placed the sparkler on the cup tower...
"No!" I shouted, because I saw the black shadow suddenly appear next to the bride's cup tower, just as the newlyweds were about to light it up. The black shadow seemed to have moved slightly, and then the tall cup tower fell straight towards the bride, with the burning flames and cold blue sparks rushing towards her.
An Ming jumped away with a scream, but the bride was unable to escape due to her long wedding dress and fell onto the altar. The ** scattered all over the bride's body, and the blue flames suddenly surged up. In an instant, the altar was engulfed in flames!
Everyone in the venue had escaped, some of whom looked like waiters were busy picking up fire extinguishers and rushing over, while An Ming stood there stupidly, his eyes wide open staring.
。
As I rushed back, however, I was caught by Huo Xiaoqi. The bride's shrill screams of agony echoed in my ears, and I struggled to break free and rush over to help her, but unfortunately, my height was no match for Huo Xiaoqi's.
"Don't make things complicated!"
He whispered softly in my ear, I stopped struggling and looked up at him, somewhat incomprehensible. His face didn't show any surprise, as if this was destined to happen. But looking at the woman rolling on the ground on the stage, my heart still felt unbearable pain. Although I didn't know her, it was a life after all!
The fire was quickly extinguished, but the woman who had fallen to the ground was already charred black all over. It was impossible to tell that she had been wearing a wedding dress. Now it was only possible to tell that it was a person at all. The ambulance drove right up and stopped beside me. I watched as the paramedics frantically treated her before lifting the bride into the vehicle. My heart felt slightly lighter, at least she was still alive!
I was dragged away by Huo Xiaoqing and got into the car. I couldn't hold it in anymore: "Tell me, what's going on?"
Huo Xiao Jin let out a low sigh, took out a cigarette from the car and lit it up, his head heavily leaning against the back of the seat.
"Anming's wedding was held for the first time in the summer of Anqi's first year after marrying into the Huo family. The wedding was by the sea, and it was said that the bride particularly liked the ocean. However, at that time, just like today, after Anming made his vows, the bride suddenly jumped off the reef into the sea right in front of everyone! We rushed over to try and save her, but with a few waves crashing, there was no sign of her anywhere!"
I watched him in horror as he took a deep drag on his cigarette and slowly exhaled a plume of blue-gray smoke.
"This is the sixth time since then, An Ming's bride will encounter an accident after he makes a promise! And it can't be stopped!"
"Rings! Does he use the same ring every time he gets married?" I asked.
He looked at me incredulously and shook his head: "How is that possible, the first ring sank into the sea with the bride!"
Watching him throw the cigarette out of the window and start the car.
"Are we going back so late?" I said, at this time the sky was almost dark.
The shadow I saw just now still makes me feel a little frightened, and I have a deeper fear of the darkness at night.
"We can't go back, but we also can't stay here overnight. Let's find a hotel to stay in first! After what happened with An Jia, I'm afraid we won't be able to return for the time being. Yun Li is very concerned about An Jia's shares, and this time she probably hopes we can do something to make that old man have a better impression of her."
I shook my head, and from the bottom of my heart, I deeply agreed with what Huo Xiaoqi said. Yun Lian was indeed that kind of person who would do everything to gain control over the Huo family. Moreover, she didn't get along well with An Xiang at home, and last time An Xiang had even humiliated her in front of everyone at the gathering. The An family was an essential part of gaining power, so it was natural that she wanted to win their favor.
Marrying into a wealthy family, the most pleasant thing is that spending money will never worry about not having enough living expenses. Just like the room in front of me, it's already very luxurious, but I just heard Huo Xiaoqi complaining that the hotel was too ordinary. For me, this is already a luxury.
Without thinking much, I directly plunged onto the bed. The exhaustion of the day was enough to warrant a good rest. Before I could even close my eyes, my phone rang. It was the one that Yun Li had asked Wang Shu to bring from the Huo's house, telling me to keep it with me at all times and contact her if anything urgent came up.
Actually, I knew she was afraid that I would disappear from the Huo family, so she left something to remind me and also for her own convenience to control me!
I pressed the call button: "Hello!" 360 search has ghosts coming to attack
"I heard something happened to An Jia?"
It's indeed Yun Li, but her news is really fast, this matter would have been written on the newspaper, at this time it's probably not even published yet, she actually knew about it immediately, looks like she really cares about An Jia.
"Yes!"
"Tomorrow, instead of me, go visit An Ming's newlywed wife who is still in the hospital and hasn't died yet. I'll have Xiao Jin accompany you."
Yun Li didn't show any politeness, and after she finished arranging everything, I responded with a simple "okay". Just as I was about to hang up the phone, her voice came through again: "Remember, this is an opportunity. If you can make that old man from the An family trust me a bit more, I'll agree to let you leave the Huo family!"
I hung up the phone and coldly hooked up the corner of my mouth. Leaving? I just didn't know if I was walking out of the Huo's house or being carried out!
