YM778.TV Chapter 1044 The Pink Bride
Ten thousand fathoms sea.
The vast ocean was pitch-black.
Occasionally, there would be a few pieces of blue that were strangely gorgeous when looking down from the sky. They Surrounded Islands of different shapes.
One of them was a long and narrow Island that looked like a giant chariot.
"Ga, ga ..."
Amidst the loud chirping of birds, snow-white seabirds landed on the island with their backs to the setting sun. Their golden-rimmed figures quickly disappeared among the dense vegetation.
In the coconut forest near the center of the island, there was a stream.
This was a rare freshwater stream on the island. Along this stream, the two banks were of different heights, and hundreds of bamboo buildings lived there. It was a mortal village.
At dusk, smoke rose from the kitchen.
In the midst of the Roosters and dogs \'barking, several children were waving the leaves of the palm trees and playing in the open space between the bamboo buildings.
Women in high buns and long dress came in and out to prepare dinner. The aroma of grilled and cooked aquatic products mixed with the fragrance of local vegetation spread out, attracting the children who were originally playing to frequently run to the stove to look and act coquettishly, asking for food in advance.
The men who had just returned from the sea were sitting on the small stools in front of their respective doors, naked with dark brown chests. They were chatting while packing up the sails and fishing nets and other things for dinner.
A black puppy wagged its tail and ran around behind its young master.
"Little black, go!" The young master, who had just gotten a piece of fish from his mother, finished the fish in two or three bites. He grabbed the remaining fish bones and threw them at the village entrance.
The Black Dog immediately spread out its four legs and chased after bone as if it was flying.
Soon, it ran into a cloud of mist and disappeared.
The little master\'s originally smiling expression instantly froze. He raised his head to look at the fog that suddenly appeared, and a heartfelt fear appeared in his clear black and white eyes.
At this moment, the fog gushed towards the entire village like a raging tide. In an instant, the originally clear scenery was covered with a layer of fog.
Sad and shrill music suddenly sounded.
Four greenish-black ghostly figures with hideous appearances carried a blood-colored bridal sedan. Their feet did not touch the ground as they appeared in the fog. In a flash, they stopped at the village entrance.
All the villagers stopped what they were doing and looked horrified.
Pink bride!
The few islands nearby were all paying their respects to this immortal.
They had to quickly prepare the offerings, or else the village would be destroyed!
A young villager immediately ran back, " "Village chief, pink deity is here again!"
The village chief, who was feeding the pigs with vegetables, trembled. He immediately ordered, " "Hurry up and get them to come over!"
Not long after, all the men between the ages of 10 and 40 came to the village head\'s house. Their faces were ashen, and their eyes were filled with fear.
Village chief\'s hair and beard were all white, and his expression was similarly mournful. After seeing that everyone had arrived, he didn\'t say much and directly took out a bamboo tube. &Quot; old rules. Come up one by one to draw lots. Whoever gets it, go there by yourself. Don\'t harm the entire village because of your selfishness. &Quot;
Everyone was in no mood to say anything at this moment. After silently lining up in a line, they trembled and went forward to draw lots.
The first person in the line was a tall, muscular man in his Prime. He reached out his hand and picked between the bamboo sticks that looked exactly the same. After a long time, he finally made up his mind to pick one.
In the middle of the stick, there was the word "lang" carved.
The muscular man\'s face instantly turned pale!
Before he could say a word, his entire body froze. A bright red Wedding robe appeared out of thin air and covered his body.
He instantly became like a zombie, standing on the spot, not moving.
Seeing that the " groom " had no intention of leaving, the village chief frowned. The other people who had not drawn their lots became even more nervous.
The Pink Bride wanted more than one sacrifice this time!
"Next one, hurry up and draw!" Village chief composed himself and said in a deep voice.
The second person gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and randomly pulled out a bamboo tube. The word " lang " was also engraved on it.
Just like the robust man before him, he also immediately froze. The next moment, he changed into a bright red Wedding robe and stood with the first " bridegroom. &Quot;
The two " bridegroom\'s " faces were as white as death. Their empty eyes stared straight at the remaining people, showing no intention of leaving.
Seeing this, the village chief\'s scalp went numb, but he had to continue, " "Next!"
Under the chiding of the village chief and the deterrence of the two " bridegroom ", the third villager, the fourth villager, the fifth villager ... Went up to draw lots one by one.
Soon, more than 20 villagers had finished drawing lots. Nine " bridegroom " in wedding robes stood in a row and continued to wait for the crowd.
The next villager\'s face was livid, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He almost couldn\'t stand still. His hands trembled as he pulled out a stick from the bamboo tube. It was another " lang " stick!
With the wedding robe on his body, this villager instantly became the tenth "groom."
Immediately after, the ten "bridegroom" lined up in a line, turned around stiffly, and walked out.
Upon seeing this, the remaining people who had not drawn their lots and those who had not drawn their lots heaved a sigh of relief. They were drenched in cold sweat.
At this time, the entire village was closed. The curtains of the tents were low, and they were hidden tightly. No living creature dared to wander outside.
The ten " bridegroom " walked through the village\'s streets and alleys with stiff and heavy steps like puppets and came to the village entrance.
The fog at the entrance of the village was particularly thick. The blood-colored bridal sedan had already been dropped by the ghostly sedan bearer, but it was still suspended a foot above the ground.
A gust of cold wind blew past, and a corner of the blood-red curtain was lifted, revealing a pink bride wearing a Phoenix Coronet and a red robe, her head covered with a wedding veil.
The color of the Bridal Veil was like blood, embroidered with mandarin ducks and Twin Lotus flowers. It was surrounded by a continuous pattern of hundreds of children and thousands of grandchildren, with inch-long bright yellow tassels.
The tassels reached all the way to his chest and covered his face tightly, not revealing anything at all.
At a glance, he could only see her slender waist. Even the layers of wedding clothes couldn\'t hide the graceful and exquisite figure.
Her back was straight, her elbows were slightly bent, and her wide sleeves were embroidered with complicated patterns. She elegantly folded them on her knees. Her slender, white, and soft hands were holding a silk handkerchief. Her fingertips were a little red, like the color of Phoenix Fairy Flower juice that was repeatedly dyed. When it crossed with her soft fingers, her skin was even more radiant and bright than snow.
The curtain of the sedan chair was lowered, and the chilly wind stopped temporarily. The originally strong and muscular bodies of the ten " bridegroom\'s " quickly dried up, and their blood essence, Yang Qi, and souls were all sucked out in an instant!
Plop, plop, plop ...
The ten \'bridegroom\'s\' turned into mummies one after another. Wearing the blood-red Wedding robe of the \'bridegroom\', they fell to the ground and turned into ashes!
As the ten wedding robes fluttered down, the ghostly sedan bearer had already lifted the wedding sedan and left.
In an instant, the wedding sedan disappeared into the White mist.
After a while, there was some movement in the village.
The doors and windows were carefully opened one by one. After a moment of observation, some brave villagers walked out of their houses and approached the village entrance.
Soon, the entire village was filled with wailing.
