Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

After entering the courtyard, Nan Yu suddenly understood what noon and dusk meant.

Obviously when they came, the sun was still shining brightly, but the moment they stepped into the courtyard, the light dissipated and the color of the sky and the earth changed.

The sky in the courtyard was dim and heavy, and everything in front of me seemed to be frozen. There was a dark wind blowing, but the hanging red and white lanterns remained motionless.

It's like walking into another time and space.

Jinchen subconsciously held Nan Yu's hand tightly and looked at everything in the yard.

There are two large coffins, one red and one black. The black coffin lid is engraved with the word "囍" and is tied with a red ribbon. The red coffin is engraved with the word "囍" with the word "囍" on it. White satin ribbon.

In the center of the two coffins is a red sedan chair.

Seeing this scene, Nan Yu felt strange and looked around. Bai Yi took a deep breath and turned pale.

The villagers sat scattered, their expressions solemn, even quieter than at the funeral of Ava Laosi.

It seemed that what they were attending was not a wedding, but some kind of ceremony that they valued very much.

"The clan elder is here!" someone called.

Jinchen and the other two people immediately found a place to sit down, just like everyone else, to avoid attracting attention.

The clan elder walked in from the door, followed by several strong men.

"The clan elder seems to be in a lot of energy!"

"Yes, yes, you don't need crutches anymore. Is your illness cured?"

"That's a great thing for our Qingshan Village!"

Some villagers chatted with each other, obviously very happy with the changes of the clan elders.

Jinchen and Nan Yu looked at each other and became more convinced that the current clan leader was He Xun.

The clan elder smiled at the villagers and walked into the center of the main hall.

"Dear villagers, today is a great event for our Qingshan Village. I have watched the child Awagu grow up, and now he has a family! It is also the birthday of the fourth Avagu, which is even more joyful... …”

"Yes, how could my old lady not participate in such a happy event?"

The grandma from the wine shop came out of the courtyard with a wine jar in her arms. She was dressed neatly in indigo blue and had silver strands combed up and wrapped in a scarf.

There seemed to be more wrinkles on her face, but her eyes were particularly bright. She directly interrupted the clan elder's words with a sarcastic tone.

The villagers stopped talking and smacked their lips secretly.

"The clan elder and grandma have never dealt with each other, so why are they all here?"

"Today is Avagu's wedding, so it's only right that everyone comes."

"Grandma is the only goddess in our village, but why hasn't a new goddess appeared yet? It's been a long time since the oracle came down."

Listening to the words of the villagers, Jinchen sat quietly, connecting the clues he had obtained in the past few days, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Unexpectedly, the clan elder did not glare at her angrily, but after choking a few words, he asked her to sit down and not to disturb Avagu's happy event.

The old woman in the wine shop looked at him suspiciously, sneered for a long time, and sat down.

"The auspicious time has come! The sedan chair is up! Welcoming the bride——"

The clan leader roared.

Several men came from around and carried the red sedan to the side door of the outer courtyard.

Two empty coffins, one red coffin entered the door, and one black coffin was placed directly in front, as if waiting for something.

A strong wind blew up, and the courtyard became darker and darker.

Suddenly, the courtyard door opened wide.

In front of the empty gate just now, more than a dozen men and women suddenly appeared. The men were carrying sedan chairs, and some were standing in front of the procession, playing suonas and beating gongs and drums.

Women lined up in two teams, walking on both sides of the sedan with red paper spread out, holding red lanterns, dancing and reciting obscure songs.

They were all dressed in festive red and green clothes, with square hats of the same color, two red lumps of blush on the sides of their cheeks, and bright red lipstick in the center of their lips.

The red sedan chair is also different from just now.

The sedan door was wide open, so everyone could clearly see the bride sitting inside, wearing a bright red wedding dress and no red hijab.

Her face was pale and blue, and her eyes were lifeless. Although her face was covered with red makeup, she could clearly see the coldness and stiffness beneath her makeup, and the hands on her knees were as white as paper.

And that bride is Zhao Ling who was swept away by the black energy as Bai Yi said yesterday.

Bai Yi was extremely surprised, "It's really her!"

"Yesterday, we should have... come to the rescue earlier..."

His tone was low, as if he meant something.

Nan Yu glanced sideways at him, "Are you blaming Jin Chen?"

"...No, no! I'm here, I blame myself."

Bai Yi shook his head vigorously and said nothing.

The suona sounded.

The procession carrying the sedan chair happily ran into the main gate, and the procession carrying the black coffin leaving the ceremony passed by each other. Red and white were intertwined. Men and women were laughing and crying, feeling both happy and sad.

Red and white collide with each other, which is a very bad omen.

When this idea appeared in Jinchen's mind, he secretly increased his vigilance.

The two teams stopped in the middle of the courtyard road and suddenly stopped moving.

All the people delivering the wedding and carrying the coffin turned their heads and looked at the guests.

The villagers seemed to be used to it. Although their faces were slightly frightened, they still stood up in unison, held their wine bowls high, and shouted loudly——

"Red, white and red bring good luck. The red sedan enters and the black coffin comes out, wishing blessings to future generations!"

In the guest seat, the only people who didn't stand up were the three players who didn't react, and the wine shop grandma who snorted coldly.

When Nan Yu saw everyone's eyes coming towards him, he hid his face in embarrassment, "Oh, I'm so shy."

He buried his head in Jinchen's arms.

Everyone: "..."

Suddenly, Jinchen felt a very malicious look.

He raised his eyes and saw that it was the clan elder standing at the top.

The two people's eyes met in the air, Jinchen curled his lips, and his eyes were sarcastic, as if to say that he had seen through his tricks.

"Why don't you bless!"

The clan elder scolded.

Nan Yu sighed, stood up lazily, and raised his wine glass in the same manner, "Red, white, red... I forgot the middle, and the last."

He picked up Jinchen again and said, "You should hold it up too, you must understand the rules."

The words "know the rules" were spoken very hard by him, and he even looked at the clan elder provocatively.

Bai Yi also stood up tremblingly.

"You have to drink this wine!" someone else said.

Jinchen smelled the wine, and as soon as he realized it was poisonous, he met the eyes of the grandmother in the wine shop.

Just for a moment, he thought of the wine with eyes in the wine shop on the first day.

Is it the antidote to this poison?

Seemingly sensing Jin Chen's suspicion, the wine shop's grandma nodded slightly and looked away.

After thinking for a moment, Jin Chen raised his head and drank, and then signaled Nan Yu with his eyes.

After all the guests had drunk wine and said their blessings, the suona started playing again.

The two teams did not cry or laugh loudly this time, but looked cold as they carried the sedan into the main entrance and the coffin out of the outer courtyard.

Nan Yu yawned boredly and leaned against Jin Chen to play with his hand. The latter indulged him and changed his position to sit in a more comfortable position for the person in his arms.
