The Ascension of Ghosts

Lu Sheng only felt a loud bang beside his ears, and his eyes were blank for a moment. When he regained consciousness, Ruo Die had already peeled off all of his hakama folds, and Ruo Xia was about to put the sixteen long red dresses on him. set.

Lu Sheng was at a loss and screamed, "Xie Rong!"

Xie Rong's face was calm, but there was a rare smile hidden in his eyes. He sat drinking tea and said: "If you are willing to pretend to be a bride and help me, I will teach you the secret art of healing."

This really hit Lu Sheng's itching spot. Since he got acquainted with Xie Rong, he had mentioned it countless times. Every time Xie Rong talked about him and mixed it up, he was even more concerned about it. He wished he could live with Xie Rong. In the house, steal a teacher.

Now that Xie Rong promised such a big sweetness, Lu Sheng didn't know what to do, between hesitation, the two maids dressed him properly in the wedding dress with quick hands and feet.Ruoxia untied his hair again, tied it into a Lingyun bun, and inserted the gold hairpins and tin combs placed on the dressing table into the bun one by one.

Lu Sheng was sitting upright, not daring to move, and asked nervously, "Xie Rong, do you mean what you say?"

Xie Rong smiled and said, "When did I ever lie to you?"

Lu Sheng thought the same way, he felt his scalp being pulled tight and painful, and the hairpins were filling it up one by one, which was so heavy that he could hardly hold it, so he couldn't help complaining: "Why do you have to find a man to pretend... If someone finds out ..."

Xie Rong said: "Women belong to yin. If you do a yin marriage at will, it is easy for the evil spirits to confuse the real one, which will ruin the marriage in the future. But men are fine."

Lu Sheng became nervous: "Is this true? Xie Rong, you can't ruin my marriage in the future. My brother and sister-in-law have a difficult heir, and you still expect me to get married in the future and have more children."

Xie Rong focused her eyes on the tea cup, in the black pottery octagonal cup, the tea soup was shaking, and there were layers of blood-colored ripples, but she responded: "It can't be broken."

Ruodie smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Baoyang, with my master's words, I will definitely not make you a loner."

Lu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, but blushed. He wanted to make some excuses, but he didn't know where to start, so he kept silent and let the two maids do his dressing for him.

After dressing up, the two maids helped Lu Sheng up and said, "My lord, it's done."

Xie Rong glanced at it, but frowned, "Where did the white-faced evildoer come from? Wash it off."

Ruodie pouted, but had to go out to fetch water, muttering, "Other brides are all dressed like this."

Lu Sheng had reached this point, he was worried about the secret healing technique, but he said calmly, "It's just a pretend, why bother to find fault?"

Xie Rong said: "The play is enough."

The two waited for Lu Sheng to wash off the blush on his face, and reapplied the ointment on him. Xie Rong walked up to him, raised his hand and pinched Lu Sheng's chin to look at him.

But Lu Sheng had no choice but to sit on the embroidered stool obediently, looking up at Xie Rong.

Xie Rong squinted her eyes, took a small purple brush from the dressing table, smoothed the tip of the pen evenly in the polished black, and then lightly drew on the peak of Lu Sheng's eyebrows.

This young man's eyebrows were already well-shaped, the ends were thick and black, and the shape was beautiful. Xie Rong followed the shape, and with only a little trimming and addition, he drew a pair of long and graceful eyebrows with distant mountain eyebrows.

It's just that Zhang Chang's thrush is the joy of a couple's boudoir, but Xie Rong's thrush only makes Lu Sheng feel like he's sitting on pins and needles.

Lu Sheng clenched his fists and endured it again and again, but the roots of his ears were still burning red, and he murmured, "Xie Rong..."

Xie Rong hid the smile in her eyes, and said with a cold face: "Be quiet."

He added a little bit, and looked carefully, and now this young man has beautiful features and tenderness, but there are still some deficiencies.

Xie Rong smeared some red lip balm with her fingers again, and ordered: "Open your mouth."

Lu Sheng became more and more awkward, Qiqi Ai said: "Well, Xie Rong, you don't have to go so far..."

Xie Rong said coldly: "For the sake of the mountain, are you going to fall short?"

Lu Sheng was at a loss for words, the wedding dress was worn, the hairpin was combed, the golden hairpin was done, and even the eyebrows were painted, so why bother with the last little detail?

He had no choice but to do as he said, and opened his mouth slightly. When Xie Rong gently brushed his lips with his fingertips, Lu Sheng felt his heart tighten, as if an electric current rushed from his fingertips into his chest, and his heart suddenly rang like a drum.

Seeing his flustered expression, Xie Rong clasped her skirt tightly with her fingers, and grabbed the bright phoenix into a messy mess of brocade threads, but she still held on and did not dare to move. The previous bit of hostility disappeared without a trace.

Where the fingertips touched, it was so soft and delicate that one couldn't bear to put it down. He naturally did not treat himself badly. He rubbed and played with it repeatedly. The bright red color of the powder had already melted away. The young man was fidgeting, his face was flushed, and the beauty was far better than this. Lipstick color.

The warm smile in Xie Rong's eyes finally couldn't be restrained, it spread softly, like ripples, and even the atmosphere in the room softened a bit.

Ruodie tried to tease her a few times, but Ruoxia stared back at her, so she had to cover her mouth sullenly, her little face flushed red.

When Xie Rong finally withdrew his hand, Lu Sheng immediately slumped his shoulders, and said dejectedly, "The root of the hair hurts, the head feels heavy, the neck hurts, and the shoulders hurt too..."

After all, Ruo Die couldn't help laughing out loud, Xie Rong rolled her eyes, she hurriedly covered her mouth again, "I, I'm going to invite the bridegroom!" and escaped out of the wing.

Yun Ye was ordered by his grandmother to come to the palace and wanted to get married with someone else. Although he was unwilling to do so, firstly, the elder's order must not be disobeyed, and secondly, this matter is ultimately to solve Yunchan's future troubles.Therefore, he just changed the color of the groom's clothes with a sullen face, and stood in the auditorium waiting for the disguised bride.

Just after midnight, all the red candles in the house were lit up, illuminating the room as bright as day, and there were red lanterns erected against the wall, and even the two pillars in the room were wrapped in red silk, looking festive, but the only one standing there was the cloud. Ye was alone, and even the little girl who led him here was gone, and the surroundings were empty, very strange.

Yun Ye braced himself and stood still, when suddenly the door squeaked behind him, a gust of wind blew in, and the candles in the room were suddenly dimmed, Yun Ye turned his head tremblingly to look around, and then he froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Xie Rong walked in front, holding a piece of red silk in his hand, and the other end was held in the hand of a beautiful woman in costume. Xie Rong led the red silk, and the two walked slowly into the auditorium one after the other.

The tall and slender beauty was full of pearls and emeralds, shining brightly under the candlelight. The wedding dress of Qihuang Zhaofeng outlined his tall and thin figure, and when the skirt was dragging, it made his waist full.

Her eyebrows are long and curved, and her thin lips are covered with vermilion, probably because she is trying to endure the embarrassment, so the roots of her ears are flushed, but she is extraordinarily bright and beautiful.

Yun Ye finally lost his voice: "Lu, Brother Lu?!"

Xie Rong's cold gaze swept over Yun Ye's back suddenly, and he stopped talking abruptly.

It's just that now seeing Lu Sheng coming in all his costumes, many complicated feelings arose in his heart.

At one time, it was "Brother Lu is so good-looking", and at another time, it was "This farce is actually interesting".

Because when they really get married, he should be the groom who leads the other end of the red silk and walks into the auditorium with the bride.

Xie Rong naturally ignored his small thoughts, and led the way ahead, leading Lu Sheng into the middle of the auditorium.

The surrounding candles dimmed suddenly, shrunk to the size of a bean, and seemed to be on and off. The originally festive hall suddenly turned into a spooky mansion.

The sound of Ruoxia playing the piano could be faintly heard from the outside, followed by the clear voice of the young girl Ruodee, singing a happy song in a low voice.

Carry the basket, and the phoenix walks.The branches are full of flowers, and the peaches are young.

Holding wishful thinking, double swallows around.Mandarin duck brocade, red official robe.

The hair is knotted, and the red candle is burning.Together with wine, even heart jacket.

A hundred years old, I don't know how old I am.I wish you all the best with you.

The young girl's voice was clear and tender, but also gloomy and vicissitudes. She sang the well-behaved joyful song in a sad and lingering way, which made people's hearts sour.

However, Yun Ye watched the man walking towards him step by step, like a bright scorching sun pushing away the clouds and mist, shaking his heart beating like a drum, his throat was dry, he hurried forward a few steps, and was about to catch the red wine in Xie Rong's hand. silk.It's just that he acted in a hurry, and stretched out his hands even if they were far away, looking more like he was going to snatch the red silk.

But Xie Rong stopped, and only raised her hand to flick outwards, the lines around the cuffs suddenly shone brightly, forming a white halo, detached from the cuffs, turned into ropes emitting white light, crossed and intercepted in front of Yun Ye.

Yun Ye couldn't help being anxious, and wanted to go around the rope and move forward, but the rope followed him like a shadow, blocking him right in front of him.

Lu Sheng also asked in doubt: "Xie Rong?"

Xie Rong only said: "Just look at it with peace of mind."

Yun Ye changed directions again and again, ran around the auditorium a few times, but still couldn't get around the rope, and finally said angrily: "Young Master Xie, what are you doing? If you don't visit the hall, the auspicious time will pass."

Xie Rong turned around, took Lu Sheng's hand, and said softly: "If you don't visit the hall, the auspicious time will pass."

Not only was Lu Sheng blushing, but he also felt embarrassment burning from head to toe. Looking at Xie Rong's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, he finally remembered his duty of pretending to be a bride, and stammered: "Then, then...bye, bye……"

"Xie Rong!" Yun Ye roared suddenly, and grabbed the rope that was swimming like a snake, and there were bursts of crackling sounds like thunder and lightning. The rope struggled violently, but it was still pulled in two by Yun Ye. Throw it far into the corner of the house.

The palms of the boy's hands were scorched black and smoked by the electric rope, but his face was still as usual, only his eyes were dull and lifeless, but they were no different from when Yunchan was taken away.He looked at Lu Sheng, curled his lips, showed a sinister smile, and suddenly exerted his strength, and rushed towards Lu Sheng, shouting: "Go away! Give me the bride...!"

Lu Sheng turned pale in shock, subconsciously touched his waist, but found nothing, and then remembered that in order to pretend to be a bride, he had to hand over the hanging pot to Ruoxia for safekeeping, and now that he didn't have it in his hands, he suddenly felt a little panicked.I thought it was a female ghost, but unexpectedly turned into a male ghost, and he was even more at a loss. He retreated subconsciously, but stepped on the corner of his skirt and fell to the ground.

Seeing that the thing covered with Yun Ye's skin was about to jump in front of him, Lu Sheng seemed to smell the cold and damp, and his whole body froze immediately, unable to move, so he called out in a panic, "Xie Rong!"

Xie Rong, who had been watching from the sidelines until now, only moved now. When she was still, she was like a mountain, but when she moved, she was as quick as lightning. She actually grabbed Yun Ye by the collar of his neck from behind, lifted him up and threw him into the open space of the auditorium.

Yun Ye was slammed on his back and fell to the ground, but he never bent his knees, let alone put his hands on the ground, but stood up straight out of thin air, and tried to pounce again.

Xie Rong's whole body's robes were lifted up without any wind, and he really had the aura of celestial beings. He formed a sword seal in his hand, and each word sounded like a sound of gold and stone, and he read out the nine-character mantra: The fighters are all marching forward in formation! Sleepy!"

In an instant, dazzling golden beams of light lit up on the roof and the ground where Yun Ye was located, descending and rising, connecting into pieces, and the gratings formed a square cage, trapping Yun Ye in it.

Yun Ye was caught off guard and collided with a row of gratings, black smoke billowed from where it touched, and there was a sizzling sound. The monster let out an ear-piercing wail, and fell back to the ground in the cage. There were already scorched black marks on the bright red groom's clothes.

The young man was kneeling on the ground, but he didn't dare to hit the light barrier again. He just opened his lifeless eyes and stared at Lu Sheng in a daze. Raster raised his hand tremblingly, and called out sadly: "Ningning...Ningning..."

Lu Sheng sat on the ground, rubbed his back with all his strength, and said in a trembling voice, "This, this is really a ghost...?" He was so terrified that his voice changed.

Xie Rong didn't reply, Lu Sheng turned his head and called out, "Xie Rong?"

Xie Rong stood on the spot, closed his eyes and said nothing.

Lu Sheng was about to call again, but his voice was suddenly choked in his throat, and he saw a thin red mark suddenly cracked above the collar of Xie Rong's shirt, in the middle of the neck, which was three points whiter than the collar.
