As the bride finished speaking, the temperature in the room dropped sharply.
Caught off guard, Bai Mo couldn't help but shudder. He quickly turned his head, and after seeing the things around him clearly, his expression suddenly changed.
I don't know when, but suddenly there was a row of men standing still in the direction of the dressing table, shoulder to shoulder, at least a dozen of them.
They are all dressed in ancient costumes, with their long hair tied up and wearing wedding clothes. They all look very handsome, both in appearance and posture, and they look like elegant young men.
It's just that these people all have their eyes closed, their faces are blue, and there is a yellow talisman stuck on their head. Their bodies exude an unpleasant smell, like corpses.
The atmosphere became a little weird for a while.
Bai Mo was stunned.
The bride twisted her neck to look at him, her face hidden under the hijab, and her expression could not be seen clearly, but there was a sinister smile in her tone.
"The slave family has 'called' the previous husbands of the slave family as the officials said. What do the officials think?"
"You...this..." Bai Mo hesitated, as if he didn't know how to speak.
The bride just thought that he was scared, so she spoke softly and in a gentle tone: "If the officials are really scared, I will let them leave immediately."
Bai Mo said nothing and his expression was extremely strange. Just when the bride thought that this guy was too frightened to speak, she heard the latter's interested voice.
"It's really interesting... You also have this style of human-shaped air conditioner in your home?"
bride:"???"
Bai Mo's reaction was completely different from what she expected, so she said blankly: "What are you talking about? What is a human air conditioner?"
Bai Mo showed a look of understanding and said, "Don't be pretentious. I've seen similar air conditioners before. No wonder it's so cold suddenly... Hiss, how high are you turning it on?"
"How many degrees?"
Bai Mo said to himself: "This thing shouldn't be cheap, right? This is the second time I've seen this kind of air conditioner in so long..."
"The slave family really doesn't understand what the officials mean." The bride was puzzled and explained, "These are the zombies that the slave family made using the corpses of the previous groom's officials, in order to make them immortal and never be with me.
See."
"There's no need to tell me what's in the script, it won't scare me." Bai Mo glanced at the corpses, "I know what's going on."
"Did the official get drunk at the banquet just now? Why are you talking nonsense?"
"You're talking nonsense." Bai Mo frowned, "Why do these air conditioners here stink so much? How long have they not been cleaned?"
"Before, I thought it was the body odor on your body, and I thought you were a girl, so I didn't point it out... But now I want to criticize you."
"Sir, please tell me."
Bai Mo said seriously, "Girls have to be cleaner. These things should be cleaned up."
The bride was dumbfounded and said aggrievedly: "My family loves to be clean. They have to bathe at least three times a day."
"Bath three times a day?"
Bai Mo was stunned, wouldn't he be able to rub off a layer of skin?
The bride said "Yes" and suddenly twisted her body, revealing her exquisite curves under her wedding dress. She said shyly: "When you and I get married, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing to bathe together every day?"
Her voice is already beautiful, and it is even more charming when she deliberately makes it. Coupled with her graceful figure and provocative words, it makes people think deeply, and it seems to have some charming magic power.
If it were an ordinary person, he might have been fascinated by her long ago, and he would wait for the candle of life and death to burn out in order to hug the beauty back——
But Bai Mo is obviously not an ordinary person.
He said impatiently: "Okay, okay, that's it. How long will it take for your show to end?"
The bride was stunned and said pitifully: "The slave family has finally figured it out. Does the official not want to marry the slave family that much?"
"I said I was in a hurry, but you didn't cooperate with me first, okay? When will your show end? If you don't let me go, I will call the police."
"The slave family also said that when one of the candles of life and death burns out first, the marriage will be truly consummated." The bride sighed quietly.
"Does that mean I can leave once the burn is over?"
"That's right, we only need to wait for twelve at most..."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Mo suddenly stood up and walked towards the table where Hong Zhu was.
Although the bride was covered with a hijab, she seemed to be able to see. Her eyes moved with the movement of the white ink, and finally landed on the red candle on the table.
Bai Mo compared them carefully and found that the two candles were still the same length, with no difference.
"What if the two candles burn out together?" he asked.
"That's impossible. There is absolutely no coexistence between life and death. Even those zombies are just unconscious corpses. In the final analysis, they are still dead people."
"I see."
Bai Mo nodded, not paying attention to what the other party said, it was just lines anyway.
He looked at the two red candles and saw that the length of the live candle and the dead candle were exactly the same, with almost no difference. Even the beating amplitude of the flame was exactly the same.
If it continues to burn like this...will one candle really burn out first?
The weak flame danced silently, the room flickered on and off, and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.
And in the next second, Bai Mo suddenly did something that shocked the bride——
Bai Mo suddenly leaned down and blew towards the red candle with the word "death" written on it.
The dead candle suddenly went out, leaving only one living candle burning in the room, and the surrounding area became darker and darker.
"What are you doing!"
The bride roared angrily. Perhaps because she was too excited, her voice was a little distorted, and she didn't even say "official".
"I'm blowing out the candles."
Bai Mo smiled calmly, showing a confident smile, as if he had found the password to pass the level.
"I have blown out the death candle, and now only the living candle is still burning, so it is destined that the living candle will burn out first... The ending is obvious, so it should be over, right?"
"You are completely against the rules!" The bride was furious and roared, her voice was terrifyingly cold.
Bai Mo shrugged: "I have never wanted to participate in your games, nor have I ever wanted to abide by your rules. Naturally, I don't need to follow your rules."
"Besides, you didn't say beforehand that you couldn't blow out the candles, right?"
The bride said coldly: "Which of the candles of life and death will burn out first depends on God's will. Everything has its own destiny. How can we interfere with it!"
"Why do you have to insist on God's will? Isn't this a way to clear the level? If you have to struggle with what is in your script..."
Bai Mo's brows wrinkled and then relaxed, and he spoke nonchalantly.
"I blew out the candles, so just think of me as God's will."
"Do you think it's God's will?"
"Man can conquer heaven."
Perhaps what Bai Mo said was so shocking that the bride was stunned for a moment and didn't speak for a long time.
When she spoke again, her tone suddenly returned to its original gentleness, and she said softly: "Please forgive me for my rudeness. In fact, no one has ever dared to be as bold as the official before."
"Maybe it's because they are not smart enough?" Bai Mo smiled and silently praised his own wit.
"Maybe so, but from the slave's point of view, this is not the whole reason."
In the bride's impression, in the past, although the groom agreed to the marriage for various reasons, he could realize that something was wrong early in the marriage, but it was often too late when he wanted to regret it.
They were frightened the moment they entered the bridal chamber, and some even lacked the courage to wait for the life-and-death candle to burn out, and were frightened to death midway.
Because they all understand that this is by no means a normal marriage, and the bride is not a human being.
In fact, many strange things often happen during the burning process of the candle of life and death. Few people can bear the feeling of being tortured by fear.
However, this guy Bai Mo's brain is not normal at all. He is not afraid to speak up at all. He also says incomprehensible words, and even blows out the death candle directly, not playing according to the routine at all...
After a moment of silence, the bride shyly said: "Since the official has chosen to blow out the death candle, is it because he wants to marry the slave?"
Her tone was shy, and she wanted to refuse but still wanted to welcome him. It seemed that as long as Bai Mo answered "yes", she would readily agree.
Unexpectedly, Bai Mo didn't answer her words at all, and quickly shook his head and said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not interested in you, I just want it to end quickly."
"End it soon?"
The bride smiled coquettishly, and actually started to take off her wedding dress, and slowly said, "I believe that slaves, it is not the officials who have the final say on whether you want to be happy or not..."
Bai Mo was startled by her actions, opened his eyes wide and said, "What are you doing?"
The bride said matter-of-factly: "I have long said that once the candle burns out, you and I are destined, and since it is destined, we naturally have to consummate our marriage immediately."
The bride kept moving her hands, her clothes were half untied, revealing a large area of white and tender skin.
"Are you serious?" Bai Mo's eyes widened, "Is this show so casual?"
"The slave family is not just a random person, but it is hard to violate destiny, so it is better to accept it."
"It's not destiny. I blew out the candles! How about I blow out the live candles again?"
"It's too late." The bride sighed quietly.
"Feudal superstition kills people. If destiny insists on letting the person you like die and the person you don't like marry you, can you accept this?"
The movement of the bride's hands stagnated, but she soon started laughing again, and said again: "Destiny cannot be violated."
What a rubbish script...
Bai Mo sighed: "I blew the candles, so now I am the destiny. I order you to put on your clothes and quickly open the door to let me leave. Is that okay?"
As if she heard the impatience in his tone, the bride said in a low voice: "Is the official looking down on the slave family?"
She stood up from the edge of the bed for the first time, turned around in front of Bai Mo, her graceful figure was clearly revealed, and said sadly, "Although the slave family is not a stunning beauty, they are also among the most beautiful women within a hundred miles.
Do the officials look down upon the slave family so much?"
"Or...does the official still have a grudge against the slave family's more than two hundred marriages after all..."
She slowly sat down, her shoulders hunched, and she actually lowered her head and started sobbing.
No, can you please forget about getting married two hundred times? If you didn’t remind me that I have so many hats on my head, I might have agreed...
Bai Mo sighed: "It's okay, just put on your clothes quickly. You're too deep into the drama, you're almost done."
The bride didn't speak, she just cried more and more sadly.
Bai Mo had a toothache, and he couldn't stand seeing a woman cry. No matter whether she was acting or not, it would always make him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
So he walked to the bed and comforted: "Okay, okay, can I finish the performance with you?"
Hearing this, the bride suddenly stopped crying and said happily: "Has the official agreed to consummate the marriage?"
God consummated the marriage, you are so excited...
"Can you please be more reserved?" Bai Mo's mouth twitched, "According to what you said before, shouldn't you have a drink after the candles are burned out? Why are you reaching the last step so quickly..."
The bride shyly said: "Aren't I afraid that the officials will be anxious?"
Why do I feel that you are more anxious than me...
Bai Mo shook his head and said: "I'm not in a hurry. Just follow your rules and end it early, otherwise it will get dark later..."
"It doesn't matter if it's dark or not, the slave family has never been afraid of rumors."
Bai Mo asked doubtfully: "What rumors?"
"As long as the officials can be satisfied, even if it is announced in daylight..."
"Stop, stop, stop, don't say that last word."
Bai Mo had a headache. Why did this girl's personality suddenly collapse? She was stripping off her clothes and seducing her with words. She couldn't say anything about the bed...
No, can this program be broadcast by then?
He sighed: "I think you're in a hurry, so why don't you just give me a drink? But at least you have to let me take a look at you, right?"
He was actually quite curious about what this girl looked like.
Hearing this, the bride suddenly became solemn. She put on her wedding dress again and said happily: "The official has to think about it. According to our rules, once the groom lifts the bride's hijab, the slave family will completely belong to the official."
People."
"That's it..." Bai Mo nodded slightly, "Then I won't lift it."
The bride's tone paused: "Don't lift it?"
"Yes, hurry up and take the next step."
She sighed quietly: "All men in the world are indeed the same. Even if you say it nicely, they are still the same after all."
"Which one is that? What are you doing now?"
"Take off your clothes. After all, the next step is to consummate the marriage." The bride sighed, "The official still can't let go of this matter."
"No, no, no, please, please be normal, okay? Can you let me go now?"
"The gate is right there. Officials can leave at any time, but..."
Bai Mo was overjoyed and was about to run towards the door, but stopped again when he heard the word "just".
"Just what?"
"It's just that the slave family will follow you."
"Follow me?" Bai Mo was stunned, "Why?"
"The slave family already belongs to the official, so naturally they should follow the official."
Bai Mo said with a toothache: "But didn't I lift my hijab?"
"That only shows that the officials do not recognize the Nu family, but the Nu family is devoted to the officials."
"You're not afraid of hitting the wall even if you wear a red hijab..."
"It's okay."
"..."
Bai Mo explained for a long time, but he couldn't dispel the bride's determination to follow him, so he thought about it and tried: "How about... I light the death candle again?"
"Of course it's not possible, but what do you want to do?"
"Wait until the death candle is burned out first." Bai Mo sighed, "You'd better kill me..."
…
At the same time, outside the room, Lu Zhan and a girl with red eyes were watching this scene quietly.
The former sighed in his heart, the tomb keeper is indeed a tomb keeper. Being able to deceive oneself is already a great skill, but he didn't expect that he could also abduct a bride in a daze...
Although this bride is obviously not quite right...
He thought this, turned to look at the girl floating in the air next to him, and suddenly froze——
At this moment, this girl with red eyes, who had been expressionless since he met her, actually showed a heartfelt smile on her face.
The girl looked at Bai Mo with a look of helplessness in the room, as if all the remaining joy in these years had bloomed at this moment.
"That's great," she said.
The voice is gentle and the smile is quiet and bright.
