Survival Paradox [Infinite]

Wei Chi hesitated for a moment, then picked up the wallet.

"Xiao Wei!" Fang Qingdi said in shock, "Do you know what this is?"

Wei Chi: "This is Ji Jingzhe's wallet."

Fang Qingdi was taken aback: "What?"

"This is Ji Jingzhe's wallet." Wei Chi opened the wallet and saw the photo in the interlayer, it was a photo of him in high school, he was sleeping on the desk by the window, the sun was shining, Luluo was behind him Flying in the wind.He showed the photo to Fang Qingdi, "This is my photo."

Fang Qingdi frowned and asked, "What else is inside?"

Wei Chi opened the wallet to check, there were ID cards, several bank cards and hundreds of dollars.

Suddenly, with a "ding dong", something fell out, fell to the ground, and rolled away.

There is still a little light source in the village, which is white, like moonlight, and that thing rolls on the ground, reflecting a string of small flashes, which looks like a small ring-shaped thing.

Wei Chi bowed to chase, Xiaohuan bumped into the wall, and lay down flat with a "ding".

Wei Chi reached out to pick it up again, and when his finger was less than ten centimeters away from the small thing, Fang Qingdi stopped it again: "Xiao Wei, listen to me, I really can't pick it up."

Wei Chi turned his head to look at Fang Qingdi, and saw the old man suddenly standing behind him, very close, looking down at him, his face was covered in pitch black shadows, so he couldn't see clearly.

He was startled, hesitated for a moment, and his fingers suddenly felt cold.

He looked back and found that the little paper man put the silver ring on his ring finger.

After finishing the set, he raised his head and looked at him, one red and one blue eyes arched and arched, as if smiling, and said happily: "Chichi! It looks good!"

Fang Qingdi said, "Take it off!"

Wei Chi reached out to pick it up, but he couldn't take it off no matter what.

The little paper figurine jumped onto his shoulder again, grabbed his earlobe with both hands, and shouted, "Chi Chi! Don't pick it up! Chi Chi! Don't pick it up!"

Wei Chi tossed and tossed for a long time, but he still couldn't take it off, sweating all over his forehead, and asked, "Old Fang, what exactly is this?"

Fang Qingdi didn't answer immediately, and said again: "Look at what else is in the wallet? Is there any hair, nails or something like that?"

Wei Chi rummaged through the wallet again, and Li Xiaofei came over to help him shine a flashlight inside.

I really found a few hairs in it, the color is very light, the hair quality is very soft, you can't see it if you don't look carefully.

Wei Chi observed Fang Qingdi's face: "...what the hell is going on?"

Fang Qingdi glanced at him, his eyes shone with a cold light, very creepy: "You have been assigned a 'ghost bride'."

Wei Chi: "'Ghost Bride'?"

Fang Qingdi sighed: "It's a ghost marriage."

Li Xiaofei gasped, the words in these folk horror stories were too sensational for a little girl born after zero zero: "Marriage in the dark?"

Fang Qingdi said: "If an unmarried man and woman die unmarried, people cannot enter reincarnation, so there will be a tradition of 'dark marriage'. There are many ways to choose a ghost marriage partner. Your kind should be 'find a ghost husband'— —Dead and living, put the deceased’s relics, jewelry and hair together and throw them on the street, and let the deceased choose their own spouse.” He looked at Wei Chi miserably, “You have been chosen.”

"But this is..." Wei Chi wanted to say that this was Ji Jingzhe's wallet, but before he could finish speaking, another person came out from the side and called, "Xiao Chi?"

If a person suddenly came out of this "dead city", no one would not be frightened, Li Xiaofei subconsciously raised the flashlight to shine on that person, saw the person's face clearly, and immediately screamed in shock.

It was a horrible crying face.

It is impossible for a normal person to put on such a weird expression.

Wei Chi stepped in front of Li Xiaofei and called out, "Uncle Third Cousin."

The crying man walked up to them step by step, stood still, nodded at Wei Chi, then leaned over to look at her over Wei Chi's shoulder, and asked kindly: "How old is the girl, have you ever been?" marriage?"

Li Xiaofei was too scared to speak, and grabbed Wei Chi's clothes.

Wei Chi pulled Li Xiaofei back and asked, "Uncle Third Cousin, why are you asking this?"

"Don't worry about it." The third cousin said, "I found a 'marriage post', so don't interrupt."

Wei Chi said, "No, I picked it up."

"You?" The third cousin turned his face away, looked at him for a while, then spat on the ground, "Don't talk nonsense here, get out of the way."

Without taking a step back, Wei Chi raised his hand and put it in front of his third cousin: "The ring is in my hand, I picked it up."

"Are you crazy?" The third cousin couldn't believe it, his crying face was disfigured with shock, "How could it be that you picked it up? Are you crazy?"

"Anyway, it can't be removed now." Wei Chi said, "What should I do?"

Third Cousin stared at him for a while longer, those two-way downturned eyes were terrifying, Fang Qingdi suddenly came out from the side to smooth things over, stuffed a big cloth bag into Third Cousin's hand, and said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, You see, this is obviously wrong, I will return you with a bigger red envelope, and your family should find another daughter-in-law."

"It's too late." The third cousin said, took Wei Chi's hand and dragged him away, "Forget it, you go back with me first."

"Hey!" Fang Qingdi still wanted to stop him, but Wei Chi suddenly grabbed his arm, squeezed it lightly, gave him a meaningful look, and left.

Fang Qingdi didn't know why, and wanted to chase after him, but was suddenly grabbed by the corner of his clothes by Li Xiaofei.

When Wei Chi and the crying man walked away, Li Xiaofei took out a mobile phone and said, "Brother Chi just handed it to me."

She turned on her phone: "Oh no, I need a password."

Fang Qingdi pinched his fingers and said, "Try 980306."

"That's right." Li Xiaofei exclaimed in surprise, "You are so amazing, Daoist!"

"It's a fluke, a fluke." Fang Qing said, "Look at what he left behind."

The homepage of the mobile phone stays on the memo page. There are a few paragraphs, which should be typed by Wei Chi just behind his back. There are some typos, but the general meaning is understandable:

i'm sober now

For some reason, I am sure that now it is the same world as the library and the airport, and it is only when you find the exit that you can get out.

The clue is at grandma's house

you guys go to qingyi girl

look for opportunities

======

Wei Chi followed his third cousin back to his grandma's house.

It's still the small courtyard.

From the outside, it looked like it was festively decorated with red lanterns, but the people who shuttled through the banquet had stiff limbs and strange expressions. The red lanterns showed a strange and psychedelic atmosphere in the dark night.

As soon as Wei Chi entered the yard, he bumped into his grandma who was sitting at the door carrying a bench. He leaned over and asked, "Grandma, what's the matter?"

Grandma still had the same smiling face, and said regretfully: "Xiao Ji is gone, you have done something wrong with the child."

"The Ji family committed crimes. First, his parents and then his grandfather. They all disappeared year after year."

After the third cousin brought Wei Chi back, he went straight to the uncle who was seated under the jujube tree, said something, and then called Wei Chi over.

No matter what, when he heard that Ji Jingzhe was gone, Wei Chi still panicked, walked up to his uncle with a blank face, nodded, and called "Uncle".

The uncle still had the upper half of his face crying and the second half smiling, and asked, "Xiao Ji is gone, do you know?"

Wei Chi: "Why not?"

"Didn't I tell you earlier? The doctor said he was hopeless so he was brought back. 'Fake burial' is the last resort. It doesn't matter if it can be done or not." The third cousin interjected, "It seems that it will not work now. .”

Wei Chi squeezed his fist and said, "Got it...then what should we do now?"

"You can only get married in the dark." Uncle Sanbiao said, "Didn't you see the preparations here?"

Wei Chi: "Why do you have to get married in the dark? Let him..." He paused, knowing that these are not true, but saying these words still made him uncomfortable, "Isn't it better to be buried in the ground?"

"How can I do that?!" The third cousin was very excited, as if he had said something outrageous, "Underage boys must be married before they can go on the road. This is the rule of our ancestors!"

"...Underage?" Wei Chi was taken aback, "What underage?"

Maybe it was because he seemed too confused, and confused the third cousin's question. The third cousin turned to the eldest uncle and asked, "Isn't Xiao Ji a minor? He's only 15 years old, right?"

There was a loud bang in Wei Chi's heart.

— 15 years old, 15 years old again.

What happened to Ji Jingzhe when she was 15 years old?Why is it 15 years old again?

The uncle gestured to the third uncle to stop talking, and the third uncle took another look at Wei Chi and shut up.

The uncle said: "Our family is a family friend with the Ji family. When Mr. Ji left, he entrusted Xiao Ji to us. We must be responsible to him."

Wei Chi: "So?"

"Unfortunately, Xiao Ji passed away at such a young age... We must take care of the last matter."

Wei Chi showed the wallet and the ring in his hand, and said: "Then I picked up these things now, and I can't take them off, what should I do?"

At this moment, Wei Chi suddenly recalled the stories he had heard when he was a child, and vaguely remembered that children who died prematurely should not stay overnight, and must be buried on the same day.Now that these things have been picked up by him, they don't have time or opportunity to match Ji Jingzhe with a "ghost bride".

The uncle pondered for a moment: "Just do it like this."

Wei Chi: "What?"

"The 'marriage post' was thrown on the street, and the child was supposed to choose a bride." The uncle looked at him and said slowly, "Whoever picks up the 'marriage post' will be the bride chosen by the child. If you pick it up, it's you."

Wei Chi: "...but I'm a man?"

"After tonight, the child will go to reincarnation." The uncle said, "Our two families are family friends, and you and Xiao Ji are also very close... I can only wrong you." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and called Said: "Take the bride to make up!"

"Come on!" The exaggeratedly dressed Xi Po came over with two flushed faces. Her face was as white as a ghost, her lips were as red as blood, and she smiled like an old hag who had just eaten three children. Behind her were seven or eight similarly dressed people. old hag.

The old witches swept Wei Chi away vigorously like a tornado full of flowers. They pushed and pushed him while making deafening laughter. The voice was so high that it could blow the ceiling away.

Wei Chi was confused by the smell of powder, incense and the screaming laughter. The little paper man was still restless, crawling around his body, as happy as the festive atmosphere, dancing on his body: " Too late! Get married!"
