a zombie haunts me

Chapter 120 Ghost welcomes the bride
"So, you suspect Chu Tianshi?"

My heart was beating violently, and the blood in my body was like boiling water.

A deep fear was burning in my chest like a flame, which couldn't be extinguished no matter what.

If all this is really the same as what Bai Chenxu suspects, then Chu Tianshi is definitely the most suspicious person!
"No, with Master Chu's identity and cultivation, how could he persecute a man who has nothing to do with him?"

Bai Chenxu shook his head, then flipped through the news just now.

My heart seemed to have opened a big hole, and an indescribable feeling hit my heart.

What will happen tonight? Will Chu Tianshi really help me?

……

In the blink of an eye, in the evening, in order not to make Bai Chenxu and A Lang suspicious, I went to Chu Tianshi's place early and waited.

Because it was still early, Chu Tianshi gave me a book of scriptures, saying that it could help me eliminate disasters and difficulties, which can be regarded as accumulating blessings and virtues.

Although my heart could not be calm for a long time, I still sat down quietly and read the scriptures silently.

I don't know how long it took, Tianshi Chu finished his meditation, walked up to me gently, and told me, "It's time for children, you should get ready."

At that moment, my mood that had been slowly relaxing suddenly became tense, and even my steady breathing was a little short.

I raised my eyes to look at Chu Tianshi, but he just lowered his eyes silently and said to me: "It's a blessing or a curse, it all depends on your own good luck, I can help you, I can only go here."

"Chu Tianshi, don't worry, I will not disappoint your expectations, I will definitely apologize sincerely, and get forgiveness from Pluto."

Although I don't have much confidence, I still pretend to be strong on the surface.

Chu Tianshi nodded to me, and then said to me: "Sincerity is a good thing, come with me."

Coming out of Chu Tianshi's place, I immediately felt a trace of coolness, the icy coldness continued to swim through my body, lingering on my two legs, so that I shivered a little.

Before I left, I told A Lang and Bai Chenxu that we might have to discuss all night tonight.

Because night is when the yin energy is at its heaviest, so they can rest assured that I stay with Chu Tianshi.

They didn't suspect me at all, but they made me feel a little guilty.

But as soon as I think about it, I can handle this matter well, and I don't have to worry about the Yin soldiers chasing me anymore, and I immediately get motivated.

Following in the footsteps of Master Chu, we soon came to the back door of Xuansong Temple.

Although this place is remote, it is not desolate. Little Taoist priests often go down the mountain from here, so I didn't take it too seriously.

"If you leave here, the enchantment of Xuansong Guan will not be able to protect you. As long as you walk along the road down the mountain and you don't encounter anything along the way, it means that the King of Hades has forgiven you."

As Chu Tianshi said, he looked up at the sky, as if he was observing the stars.

I hummed lightly, and then thought of something, so I asked, "Won't Pluto see me, won't he listen to my explanation?"

"I'm not sure about this. In short, you may encounter many difficulties and obstacles on the way down the mountain, but as long as you can survive, Pluto promises to let you go."

He said with a deep sigh: "This is my agreement with him, Pluto has already made the biggest concession."

"Thank you Master Chu."

I respectfully nodded to Chu Tianshi. In fact, I have heard of Pluto's personality for a long time. His personality is domineering, arrogant and ruthless. That's why he is afraid of even the world, and no one dares to offend him.

It is already a great honor for Chu Tianshi to let him make such an agreement.

I don't dare to expect anything extravagantly, I just hope that I can get through it with strength.

Saying goodbye to Master Chu, I can only walk up and down the mountain alone.

As soon as I opened the back door of Xuansong Guan, a gust of dark wind rushed towards my face, and the surrounding trees made whistling sounds in the dark wind, baring their teeth and claws like ghost soldiers chasing and killing me.

I was scared, so I could only take a step forward trembling.

As soon as my footsteps landed, I heard creaking laughter from my ears. The laughter was terrifying, as if someone was standing beside me, laughing to me...

At that moment, my heart suddenly jumped half a beat, but I didn't dare to look back, so I could only close the door gently.

The surrounding wind blows over my cheeks, like hundreds of caterpillars, crawling over my cheeks.

Fear is like a jagged wheel, rolling back and forth on my sensitive nerves.

Trembling, I took another step forward.

The creaking laughter became louder, like a ghost, lingering in my ears.

As I walked forward, I said silently in my heart: "Master Pluto, I really didn't intend to disobey you. It was because I was framed by a traitor and lost my soul that I entered the underworld by mistake. I hope you forgive me."

But the more I read like this, the more panicked I became.

The cold air around me kept penetrating into my body, and through the heavy clothes, I could still feel the cold air wandering in my body, spreading to the deepest part of my internal organs.

I walked about 100 meters forward. Although the wind was blowing and the laughter was terrifying, those ghosts did not hurt my body.

Thinking of this, my heart also slowly relaxed a little.

However, there is still a long way to go down the mountain. If I walk slowly and step by step like this, I really don't know if I will not arrive until tomorrow morning.

After thinking about it, I decided to increase the speed and increase the pace, hoping to save time and reach the bottom of the mountain.

However, the fact is not as simple as I imagined.

After walking about a mile, I suddenly heard some strange sounds.

Different from that terrifying laughter, it was the sound of chariots and horses, the sound of suona, the sound of gongs and drums, and... the sound of firecrackers!

However, in this wilderness, how could there be a large number of people passing by here?
Besides, even if there is, it should be during the day.

It's midnight!
Thinking of this, I was shocked. If I guessed correctly, the test given to me by Hades is coming...

At that time, I became nervous, because I agreed with Chu Tianshi that I would not bring any magic weapons, so I didn't even have an amulet on me.

In case, those ghosts come to take my life, I can't resist at all.

Because of fear, I can only go faster, faster, and I will never look back!

However, even if I don't want to see, some things are destined to be seen by me.

Soon, I found that on the mountain road not far in front, there was a team of greeting relatives walking towards me. The team was mighty and menacing.

The sound of gongs, drums and suona was infinitely amplified in my ears, and the crackling of firecrackers kept going.

Too bad, how can I get out of such a narrow mountain road?
Helpless, I could only stand quietly on the side of the mountain road. I didn't dare to look at those welcoming people, because I knew very well that no one would greet them at midnight. These... must be sent by the underworld ghost.

But even if I don't want to look, my body will still involuntarily look there.

All of a sudden, I was stunned.

Because those who greeted the relatives all agreed to wear black clothes, with a big red hydrangea hanging on their bodies.

At the front are people playing gongs and drums, followed by a large sedan chair carried by four people. On both sides of the sedan chair, there are two little girls with pigtails and a small basket on their waists. They grabbed some beautiful petals from the basket and sprinkled them into the sky.

My heart froze suddenly, and a deep fear burst out of my body like a flame rising from the ground.

But the more I was afraid, the more I felt the cold around me spreading into my body, as if I had fallen into a huge ice cellar.

I was shivering with cold, and the cold sweat on my back wet my clothes at some point.

The clothes soaked in cold sweat stuck to my back, squeezing out the heat from my body bit by bit, making me feel colder and colder.

At this time, a thick cloud seemed to float in the sky, and the starlight that was still faintly visible was instantly covered.

It seemed as if a flash of lightning had suddenly flashed, and the strange white light shone on the crowd. I saw that the faces of those people were completely pale, with almost no trace of blood.

There were only two little girls standing on both sides of the sedan chair with two red faces, like paper dolls with two red stickers on their faces, weird and terrifying.

I felt terribly panicked in my heart, but I still didn't dare to move, I was afraid that I would offend them, and the consequences would be disastrous.

When the welcoming team slowly approached me, the suona sounds in my ears became more and more piercing, and the gongs and drums seemed to be beating on my heart one after another.

I clenched my hands slightly hanging by my side into fists, bit my lower lip tightly, trying to keep myself calm.

However, the swaying sedan chair actually made a creaking sound, like the light sound of old wooden shafts rubbing against each other.

After a while, the procession of welcoming the bride had indeed come to my side. Just when I thought everything was about to end, the car curtain was suddenly blown up by a gust of wind.

A flash of bright red broke into my sight in an instant, and I saw a woman sitting in the sedan chair, a bride with a red hijab.

She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, on which were mandarin ducks embroidered with golden silk thread.

At that moment, I almost held my breath, but fear spread rapidly in my body like a virus.

I was trembling, as if there was a beast living in my chest, biting me frantically, devouring my remaining sanity.

I swallowed, but my tense body was completely stiff.

Two little girls walked by my side, and the petals thrown to the sky fell on me. At that moment, I realized that it was not a petal, but a piece of colored paper.

Suddenly, those pieces of paper floated in front of my eyes, covering my eyes for an instant.

At that moment, I just felt that my eyes were dark...
