Skimming through the known information, Xie Jinxi extracted several key points from it.

During the ceremony on July 1998th, [-], Ghost Married Mother exchanged Fengfei's key, and Fengfei left Sansuo Village and Dashan.

On July 33 of the same year, the first seven days of resurrection, everyone in the Feng family was killed.

Seven years later is the death of the person most involved.

In the next seven years, the scope of this death expanded to other villagers who watched silently.

Seven years later, those of them who left Sansuo Village also received invitations to the wedding banquet and returned to Sansuo Village.

Could it be that every seven years, that yin marriage will be repeated?When the wedding is in progress, Ghost Marriage Mother will kill a group of people to take revenge?

So their mission this time is to attend the wedding and survive until the wedding is over?

The other is the way of life mentioned in the suicide note, enter the ancestral hall to find Feng's family tree, find Fengfei's birth date, and then burn it during the sacrifice to re-lock Fengfei?

But this is easier said than done.

Leaving aside any risks in the ancestral hall, the parents of the Feng family would not allow them to involve their escaped son again.

What's more, the key was originally kept in the hands of the underworld. After the ghost marrying the mother married to the underworld, the key is now in the hands of the ghost.If Ghost Married Mother refuses to make this deal, there is still only a dead end waiting for them...

Not only that, Xie Jinxi looked out at the world shrouded in thick fog by the light of the fire, perhaps the worst had already happened.

What they were going to face this time was a real ghost, a ghost who spent 31 years devouring the entire Sansuo Village and killing more than a thousand people.

……

On the third day, the night was over, but there was no light outside.

Xie Jinxi was about to open the door to leave Xie's house, and meet in front of the ancestral hall as planned.

As soon as he went out, he found that the fog was thicker than last night, and he could only see a distance of one or two meters in front of him.

You can't see the sky or even the sun when you look up. According to common sense, no matter how thick the fog is, you can vaguely see the sun like a hazy, light cluster. After all, it is the source of all light and heat.

But now it's gone, and when you look up, you can only see an empty fog, and what illuminates the world is a bleak, white light from no source.

"What the hell is this fog... or what does it mean?" Xie Jinxi thought about it, and suddenly thought of the reminder, "The world is upside down, Yin and Yang are reversed. Now there is no sky and no sun, until the day of the final wedding , wouldn’t it be true that the heavens and the earth are turned upside down, and the yang world becomes the underworld, right?”

Possibly, but we'll have to wait and see.

Xie Jinxi sighed and walked towards the ancestral hall.

When Xie Jinxi arrived, there were already five people waiting in front of the ancestral hall, only Sun Jianye did not arrive.

"Wait for him a little longer." Qian Shi sighed, "Everyone knows the rules of death, so it shouldn't be..."

Xie Jinxi and the others waited at the same spot for another 10 minutes before Sun Jianye broke through the thick fog and came over.

Chen Liangjun nodded at him and said, "Okay, let's go to a random place and talk again."

Because of the poor visibility, they walked a short distance along the road and stopped.

Before anyone else could speak, Sun Jianye said directly, "I got information about the ritual."

Chen Liangjun's eyes lit up. He hadn't made any progress yesterday, which made him a little depressed, but he didn't expect this middle-aged man who was as silent as a shadow to get information about the ceremony.

Sun Jianye didn't hold back, and said directly: "The sacrificial ceremony was initiated by the Feng family. On the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, when the gate of hell opens, the Feng family will prepare enough paper money, paper horses, paper clothes, paper ingots, etc. Burn it to the underworld for real gold and silver."

"The form of later sacrificial ceremonies gradually evolved into yin marriages. Paper money, paper horses, paper clothes, paper furniture, etc., all became dowry dowry. Of course, in the previous ceremonies, all paper-made sedan chairs and brides were burned. Until Xie Jinxi provided Yes, the shady wedding in 1998, only the shady wedding ceremony burned a living person."

"The location of the sacrificial ceremony has always been set in the ancestral hall. The sacrificial ceremony is held every year. People in Sansuo Village can usually go down the mountain, but every July [-]th, they must come back to participate in this sacrificial ceremony. Otherwise, those who don't participate will gradually get closer and closer to each other. The distance from the 'underworld', being infested by ghosts, it won't be long before the life given to them by their underworld will be taken away by the underworld."

Speaking of this, Sun Jianye made his own speculation: "I think that the evolution of the sacrificial ceremony into a yin marriage should be related to the so-called Feng family being able to ask for a child. To ask for a child, you have to go to the Feng family's ancestral hall to ask for three locks. I also asked about this. Asking for locks and offering sacrifices at the same time, when the yin marriage is over and everything is reduced to ashes, three locks will appear, and those who want to ask for a son will bring back the three locks, and soon there will be children."

Sun Jianye's face seemed to be covered with a layer of gloom: "Do you think that on July [-]th, the day when the gate of hell is opened, the heirs who were begged for were really normal children after they were born? Since they are normal, And why do you have to spend money every year to buy your life, once it ends, there will be ghosts infesting... I am afraid that it is also a reincarnation of ghosts, trying to hide the truth."

Following Sun Jianye's train of thought and last night's suicide note, Xie Jinxi also understood this point, so...does it have to be a life for another?Only by throwing another person's ghost into the underworld can Fengfei exchange for his own key, unlock the life lock that cannot be opened, and get his own soul back, so that he can escape from the mountain.

Then they...

Xie Jinxi couldn't help but feel vigilant, the only living people in Sansuo Village are a few taskers like them.

No... No, even if the lock is unlocked, they still have to attend the wedding, even if the lock is unlocked, it's useless if ghosts at the level of Ghost Marriage Mother want to kill them.

This is again misleading.

The world seems to have been leading in the wrong direction, in the direction of wanting them to kill each other.If they really believed it, killed someone else at the ceremony to get the key, and ended up being killed at the end of the wedding, hoping for the despair after that, it would be a really good show.

Then should he tell them the contents of the suicide note?Or is it blurring the key points and hiding some information?

No... Based on the information obtained so far, the matter of exchanging lives can be easily deduced. The most important thing at present is trust.

"I got the suicide note last night." Xie Jinxi's words attracted everyone's attention, opened the suicide note and held it up for others to take a closer look, "Don't touch it, as I got this and met a resentful soul. I suspect there's a third rule of death in this, and it's a matter of caution."

Chen Liangjun leaned in and read it quickly. Xie Jinxi really didn't hide anything. He pointed to the last paragraph and said openly: "Take Fengfei's life for another person's life? What about the others? Everyone kills each other. Life for life?"

"No." Xie Jinxi emphasized again, "I still think this is a trap. Feng Fei is the person Ghost Married Mother hates the most, but there is no iron law saying that she is willing to accept the deal, and whether she is willing to let us go is just a matter of seeing. It's her will."

Peng Ruijin was a little irritable, and said directly: "Then do we want to do this? It is dangerous enough to enter the ancestral hall, so is it a waste of effort to go?"

"I still have to do it." Feng Luoling said, the wound on her shoulder has been bandaged again, and her spirit is much better than yesterday, "What we can do is to increase the chance of survival, Fengfei should pass the customs Necessary but not sufficient, it is best to try.”

"It's really dangerous to enter the ancestral hall. Let me and this Xie Jinxi handle this matter."

Feng Luoling looked at Xie Jinxi, who nodded.

Peng Ruijin, Qian Shi, Sun Jianye, and Chen Liangjun all had no objections. It is naturally good that someone is willing to volunteer to explore the most dangerous places.

Zhao Changxi thought for a while, then plucked up her courage and said: "I... I went back to my 'home' yesterday. My home makes shrouds, and the person who claims to be my family is my mother. I tried to talk to you yesterday, but she didn't want to do anything. Tell me. As for searching the house... I was dragged to tidy up my shroud during the day, and I couldn't find a free time, and I didn't dare at night."

"It's already very good." Chen Liangjun said so, and then took another look at Peng Ruijin and Qian Shi.

Qian Shi still had the same smiling, good-natured look, while Peng Ruijin looked like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

Feng Luoling looked back at the direction of the ancestral hall, and said: "Xie Jinxi and I will go to the ancestral hall first. The most dangerous ones that have not been explored so far are the ancestral halls. Let's go get Fengfei's birth date. Now it's foggy." Now, it may not be safe outside Three Locks Village, you'd better go back to your own homes, the rest is to wait for the wedding to start."

"It's fine for them to go back. I'm more concerned about one place. I'll visit the hunters in the village first." Chen Liangjun said suddenly.

"Hunter?" Peng Ruijin was a little puzzled.

Chen Liangjun said: "Think about it, the rice we eat has a taste of old rice. According to Xie Jinxi, the last group of villagers died seven years ago. If the rice is properly preserved, it will be fine if it is old for seven years. , Wild vegetables are everywhere in the mountains, but where does the meat come from? There must be hunters going out to hunt.”

"I inquired about it yesterday. The hunter in the village is the man called 'Uncle Shan'. He is quite prestigious among ordinary villagers. I am a little concerned and want to see if he has any clues."

"If I were you," Chen Liangjun said, staring at Peng Ruijin and Qian Shi, "I would also suggest that you go to Wang Guaizi's house to see if there is any record of him buying and selling ghosts and marrying mothers with Uncle Luo at that time, or Other clues. If I were a ghost married woman, in addition to wanting all my enemies to die, I would also want to reveal my crimes and expectations to the world, just like those corpses that were nailed to ancient trees and watched by everyone before they could be put down .”

"Sitting and waiting to die is the worst way."

Being stared at by Chen Liangjun, Peng Ruijin was already scolding his mother in his heart.That's right, he didn't do anything during the day, he neither went to talk to the villagers nor searched his own home, because Feng Luoling, Xie Jinxi and Chen Liangjun were there, since this world is Feng Luoling's seventh world, Then shouldn't she pay more?

The more active the more dangerous, there are still so many taskers, and the rules of death on the surface of this world have been found out, so why is he still active.If he wants to die, others will die first, and he can fight until the last moment.
