Chapter 109 Living Candles and Dead Candles

Bai Mo pushed the door open and entered the room, and the first thing he saw was a room of red.

All the sounds outside the house disappeared, whether it was wind or rain, everything seemed to be muted and entered another world.

The bright red 囍 character flickered under the candlelight, but for some reason, there was no wind in the room, but the two candles danced very weakly, as if they might be extinguished at any time.

The wedding bed is also festively bright red, and on the left is a dressing table covered with happy characters, dragons and phoenixes are neatly folded and laid flat on the bed, and mandarin ducks are rusted on the pillows.

Bai Mo took a few steps forward, when a gust of wind blew by, the door behind him was suddenly closed with a loud noise.

He hurriedly turned around and pushed the door, but no matter how hard he pushed the door, it didn't move at all, as if someone was blocking the door from outside.

Realizing that something was wrong, he slammed the door and said angrily, "What do you mean by closing the door?"

He tried to push the windows pasted with the word "囍", but he couldn't open them either.

"Let me out, you are breaking the law!"

No one responded.

After waiting for a while, a sharp and piercing voice suddenly came from Bai Mo's ear:

"Congratulations to the official and the young lady for their wedding!"

The voice was very strange, it was unclear whether it was a man or a woman, or whether it was coming from outside or inside the house. It was clearly a blessing, but it seemed to be filled with blatant malice.

"A group of lunatics, it's simply too deep into the drama."

Bai Mo cursed inwardly, but luckily there was someone else in the room, so he wasn't too flustered, and he didn't think these people would do anything to him.

You must know that you went up the mountain with the police, if you really can't do it, you can call the Lu team.

Thinking of this, he was about to take out his mobile phone, but he didn't know if it was an illusion, his body suddenly became a little cooler, and the temperature in the room seemed to be much lower.

Raising her head, she saw that the woman sitting beside the marriage bed twisted her neck at some point and turned her face in the direction where she was.

The woman was wearing a red wedding dress and embroidered shoes on her feet. Although her face was covered by a red hijab embroidered with patterns, she could still imagine her appearance just by looking at her graceful figure——

Absolutely beautiful.

Bai Mo sighed inwardly, this actress is very temperamental at first glance, this outfit is even more expensive, and the whole room is decorated quite realistically, these people are really willing to spend money.

"So what do I do next?"

Looking around, he felt more and more that the wedding room was magnificent.

After all, I was forcibly arrested, and I didn't know what to do for a while, would I really want to marry this woman?

"Officer, are you there?"

Perhaps it was because Bai Mo hadn't moved for a long time, the bride on the bed suddenly spoke, her voice was clear and moving, and quite green.

Although it was strange to be called an official by such a little girl, Bai Mo knew very well that the other party was calling him, so he replied reluctantly: "I am here."

"It turned out to be there, I thought the officials had been scared away..."

The bride on the bed smiled bitterly, with complaints and grievances in her voice, "Is it because the officials are afraid of the servants because they haven't come here for so long?"

Bai Mo was taken aback, did this guy get into the drama so soon?
He wondered, "Where are you coming from?"

"There's no need to ask, it's the bed... Oh, it's by my side." The bride said angrily, "Ask the question knowingly."

Bai Mo didn't say much, he walked directly to the bed and sat next to her, thinking that he should cooperate with him reluctantly, and finish work early and call it a day.

But the moment he sat down, his brows suddenly frowned, and he felt an unbearable stench in the air. He hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't point it out.

The two red candles on the table were burning quietly, and the faint candlelight was beating. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was indescribably weird.

Suddenly, perhaps feeling that Bai Mo was too inactive, the bride pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Is this the first time the official is married?"

Nonsense, I don't even have a girlfriend...

Bai Mo felt helpless, but the expression on his face was quite calm: "Yes."

"Really? That would be nice."

The bride smiled in surprise, her laughter was as crisp as a lark.

"What's so good about this..." Bai Mo shook his head, suddenly realized, and asked in surprise, "Isn't this your first marriage?"

He thinks this should be a romantic story, and the bride's answer is likely to be no.

Unexpectedly, the other party hesitated and hawed for a long time, and finally said frankly: "No, this is not the first time my family got married."

Bai Mo froze for a moment, but quickly assumed the role of groom, and comforted him: "It's okay, once or twice is fine, I don't mind."

"Really, the officials don't mind?" The bride was taken aback for a moment, and then became delighted.

"Of course I don't mind."

Bai Mo's face was firm, his chest slapped loudly, and he thought to himself that you didn't really marry me anyway, so what does it matter to me even if you are divorced and have a baby?
The bride was silent for a moment, and continued to confess: "But my family has been married more than 200 times... so the officials still don't mind?"

"I said I don't mind, just over 200 times and..."

Bai Mo was about to shake his head, but when he realized it, his expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "How many times?"

He doubted his ears.

"More than 200 times."

As if she was afraid that Bai Mo would not be able to hear clearly, the bride replied word by word.

Bai Mo's expression was dull: "If you say that you NG more than 200 times, I might believe it more easily..."

"What are the officials talking about? What kind of chicken is Enji?" The bride's tone was suspicious, and soon became low again, "The officials really do care..."

Nonsense, if I get married more than 200 times, don't you have to respond...

Bai Mo cursed inwardly, which idiot wrote this script? More than 200 times... This bride is set to live in the wedding room for the first half of her life?
This guy is so attractive, so many men line up to marry her?
Although he felt that the plot was weird in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, and cooperated: "I don't mind or don't mind, it's just a worldly view, the most important thing is that two people love each other."

The bride was really delighted when she heard this, she lowered her head and smiled, "The official is so kind."

Well, hurry up, finish it early and end it early.

Bai Mo just wanted to leave here early, so he took the initiative to ask: "What should I do next, should I enter the bridal chamber?"

"Ah!" Hearing this, the bride suddenly became very shy, her voice was as weak as a mosquito, and she said coyly, "I must be too anxious about what the officials are saying..."

"Then worship?"

"We've already paid our respects, sir, have you forgotten?" the bride asked suspiciously.

I didn't know, I didn't act in that part... Bai Mo thought for a while, and continued to ask: "Then should you lift the hijab?"

"wrong."

"Then what to do now?"

"The officials clearly know about it." The bride tugged at the hem of her dress with both hands, and said in a low voice, "Next, we should drink... a cup of wine..."

"Okay, let's have a cup of wine."

Bai Mo walked to the table in two or three steps, and poured two glasses of wine from the jug. The aroma was mellow, he brought it over, and handed a glass to the bride.

But the bride didn't pick it up, but said: "Officer, have you forgotten, there are rules for us to drink a cup of wine here, and you can't drink it directly."

"What's the rule, do I have to spin one for you?"

"What are you talking about? Why do the officials keep saying things that the servants can't understand?" The bride shook her head and said, "Did you see those two red candles on the table?"

"I see." Bai Mo only felt that the other party was too gruff, and his tone was a bit more perfunctory, "It's so beautiful, it must not be cheap."

Who knew that the bride actually nodded her head, and replied, "It's really not cheap, one tael of silver."

Bai Mo was shocked and said: "These two candles cost me ten taels of silver?"

"The officials don't need to be surprised. When you and I get married, not to mention ten taels of silver, including the slave family, the entire Yang Mansion is yours."

"You mean... this house is yours?"

"Yes." The bride nodded reservedly.

Bai Mo gasped, he had seen the house outside just now, it was so huge that it was this girl's property?

He suddenly understood why there are so many men marrying this guy one after another...

Rich woman look at me!
Withdrawing his thoughts, he asked doubtfully, "It's just a rich woman...but miss, candles are expensive, but what's so special about it?"

"Have the officials seen the writing on the red candle?"

"Writing on the candle?"

Bai Mo was taken aback, and quickly got up to look over, and found that there were words on it, probably because he was too anxious just now and didn't pay attention, that's why he didn't see the words on the candle.

He frowned slightly, and saw the words "Life" and "Death" written on the bottom of the two red candles. How could these two words appear in the wedding room?This is not auspicious...

"What does that mean?" he asked.

The bride did not answer, but said: "Officer, take a closer look, are the two red candles the same length now?"

Bai Mo compared them carefully, and replied, "Yes, they are the same length."

"There is a rule in our marriage here, that is to resign to fate, whichever of the two red candles burns out first will be used."

The bride explained, "If the raw candle burns out first, it means that you and I are destined to be married immediately; if the dead candle burns out first, it means that you and I are destined to never meet again... .”

Bai Mo didn't notice that when he said the words "never see each other", the bride's voice was visibly colder.

Bai Mo frowned, and suddenly had a new understanding of the setting that this guy could marry more than 200 times...

Co-authoring this is a bad luck?
"No, have you always been so hasty in your marriage?"

"This is the rule, and the slave family can't change it." The bride's voice lowered a little, and asked, "Don't the officials wonder why I have been married so many times?"

Bai Mo guessed: "Because you are so unlucky, the dead candle burns out first every time?"

"More than that." The bride shook her head and changed the question, "Does the official know the meaning of never seeing each other?"

What other meanings could there be... Bai Mo thought for a while, and tentatively said: "It's just that you give the man a breakup fee, and let him go as far away as possible, and never come back?"

"Breakup fee? What the officials said is so strange... But the slave family probably understands what you mean." The bride thought for a moment and said seriously, "It can be regarded as giving them a breakup fee. After all, the slave family will ask people to burn paper for them every year. ..."

Bai Mo was taken aback, and interrupted: "Burning paper?"

"That's right, every year I ask my servants to burn a lot of Ming coins with the largest denominations for them to share equally."

You're not afraid that your exes will fight underground, so you might as well burn a few green hats...

Bai Mo complained in his heart, hehe laughed and said: "Then you are really generous."

"I feel ashamed."

Ashamed?Bai Mo pondered for a while, and suddenly thought of the setting of the bad street: "Could it be that you are the lone star of the devil, who killed all the husbands?"

Rich, beautiful, good-looking and widowed, this setting, tsk tsk tsk...

Unexpectedly, the bride said angrily: "Officials don't talk nonsense, although my family is lonely all my life, it is not a disaster."

"How did those people die before that?"

She smiled softly, but what she said made people's hair stand on end.

"Of course I killed it with my own hands."

Bai Mo's spine was chilled by her tone, he couldn't help but moved to the side of the bed, and asked, "Why did you kill them?"

"I said, if the dead candle burns out first, we will never meet each other..." After a pause, the bride continued, "And Yin and Yang are separated, isn't it the ideal 'never meet'?"

"Then you are vicious enough." Bai Mo commented, this script is really stupid.

"It's God's will."

Bai Mo retorted: "Why can't the intention of the day be to let you die, so that you will be separated from everyone?"

This is obviously a feudal superstition. If this continues, won't I have to follow the old path of those guys before?

The bride didn't speak for a long time, as if she didn't know how to answer.

The atmosphere in the room turned sharply, and the bride's attitude seemed to be much colder.

Candlelight dances.

After a while, Bai Mo asked, "When can I leave?"

The bride said: "Officials, please be safe and don't be impatient. The result will be when the red candle is burned out."

Bai Mo frowned: "Shouldn't such a long candle have to burn until the year of the monkey?"

The bride said seriously: "My family has an impression, twelve hours is enough."

Twelve hours... Isn't that a day?
Bai Mo shook his head and said, "I can't wait that long."

"There is food on the table, as well as wine, meat and fruits. Officials don't have to worry. If it's really boring, you can also chat with the servants to relieve fatigue."

Bai Mo was about to refuse, but suddenly, as if he remembered something, he asked, "Can we talk about anything?"

"nature."

"Then tell me where this is."

Anyway, I just want to ask a few things, I don't want to ask anyone, so I just ask this girl directly.

"The official is really strange today. Could it be that he is drunk? This is the Yang Mansion." The bride's voice was strange.

Bai Mo shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about where it is in the script, but where it is in reality?"

"What script?" The bride looked very confused.

This is too deep into the drama...

Bai Mo took a deep breath: "Please put on a show first, and answer my question seriously, I'm in a hurry."

"The slave family answered seriously, no matter whether you and I are destined for each other or not, the slave family will not deceive the officials. This is indeed Yang's mansion."

Bai Mo said dissatisfiedly: "But this place is clearly called Zheshou Mountain, and you still say you didn't lie to me?"

"Hiding Beast Mountain?" The bride asked suspiciously, "My family doesn't know about it, and I haven't heard of such a mountain nearby..."

"I'm talking about things other than the script."

"What's the script?"

Why can't this come out, Bai Mo said with a sore tooth, "It's just something to teach you how to act."

The bride said angrily: "My family didn't act."

"Have."

"No."

"Have."

"Really do not have."

"..."

Bai Mo laughed angrily: "No, right? Then you take out your killing knife, and the corpses of the previous few unlucky ones, and find them for me."

The bride was silent for a while, and only after a while did she say quietly, "Does the official really want to see it?"

"of course."

"I don't want to scare the officials, those things are not beautiful..."

"I just like alternative beauty."

"is it?"

The bride sighed faintly, and in the next second, Bai Mo felt that his side was extremely cold, as if someone had suddenly turned the air conditioner to the lowest level and was blowing on him specifically.

At the same time, the stench in the air became stronger.

The bride's cold voice came from beside her ears——

"The officials turn their heads, they are right beside you."
