After seeing this "diary", Xie Chen felt a little weird.
Of course, the more reason was actually seeing the bride in red in the inner coffin.
Originally, for Xie Chen, she should not appear here.
After all, according to the relative conclusion, when the wedding comes, there also needs to be a bride waiting for the upcoming wedding team.
"What about the wedding after that?"
Xie Chen looked at the bride in red lying in the bloody coffin and muttered to herself with a pale face.
Just when he stepped forward to take out the "diary", there was a loud bang outside the door.
Xie Chen was alert and immediately looked in the direction of the door behind him, but the originally open door was sealed shut.
"Is it possible that there is someone else on the second floor?"
Xie Chen was alert for a while, but it was of no avail.
When he wants to move.
Only then did he realize that his body was completely unable to move again.
The only difference is that no one is holding themselves.
Xie Chen desperately tried to break free, but his feet didn't obey his orders at all, and he felt as if he was being lifted up in the air.
Xie Chen turned around and found that he could move normally again, so he immediately stretched his hand into the inner coffin.
The "diary" that was originally held by the bride in red began to slowly slide towards the blood in the inner coffin as Xie Chen stretched out her hand.
Xie Chen gritted his teeth, but fortunately he moved a little faster, so that the "diary" on the outer cover of the wedding album with gold edges was not allowed to fall into the blood.
After holding the diary in his hands, Xie Chen felt a little excited and immediately opened the first page with both hands.
What came into view was a row of large golden characters, but these fonts were not very familiar to Chen Chen.
It looks a bit like small regular script, but when written, it has the charm of cursive script, giving people a feeling of being disorganized.
Xie Chen rubbed the bridge of his nose, and after squinting his eyes for a while, he began to re-examine the diary.
The first page is probably written something similar to a catalog. After all, in the past, the writing specifications of women's diaries were similar to daily records.
Xie Chen still understood this in his heart.
But because he couldn't read the fonts clearly, Xie Chen couldn't tell the rough information and time written in these diary directories.
"Forget it…"
Xie Chen focused his attention on the second page of the diary.
Only then did I realize that the pages above were actually taken from other books.
Judging from the content above, Xie Chen could finally see clearly what was written.
[Yimao Year of the Rabbit, Guiwei month, Bingwu day...yin...]
"I have known him for almost four years. Time flies so fast."
"I never thought he would propose to me."
"..."
[Yimao Year of the Rabbit, Guiwei month, Gengshen day...yun...]
"I'm not sure whether my mother would agree with me being with him..."
"So I agreed to him directly without any hesitation."
"Since my father died, my mother has shouldered the burden of the family's prosperity all by herself. It's a pity that I am the only daughter and no son."
"Say something quietly that he can't hear now. If it's possible, I really hope to be with him for the rest of my life."
[Bingyin day, Guiwei month, Year of the Rabbit, Year of the Rabbit... Sunny...]
"After almost a month of careful consideration, I decided to agree to him."
"I love him……"
"Even if mother doesn't agree, we can actually sit down and discuss it together."
"As long as we are happy, everything will be better in the future."
…………
Seeing this, Xie Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath.
From the beginning, it can be seen that his wife is indeed a lady of the family, and she and the husband in her heart also love each other. This is still the same as what I guessed.
Xie Chen calmed down his mood a little, and then turned to the next page of the diary.
[Yimao Year of the Rabbit, Jiashen Month, Dingchou Day]
"I recently went to a fortune teller to tell my marriage, but the result was a lottery."
"The old gentleman said, 'Marriage is impossible'."
"I do not believe."
"As long as I take him to meet his mother, I will secretly spend some money to send someone to make a gift, and the engagement will be on August 15th, just to celebrate the full moon."
[Bingzi day of Jiashen month in the year of Yimao rabbit]
"Mother doesn't agree..."
"She locked me up at home and didn't allow me to go out anymore."
"There is another well-matched family who has taken a liking to me..."
[Jiashen Day and Dinghai Day in the Year of the Rabbit of Yimao]
"He's got a letter."
"The maid got it at the door this morning."
"It's just that no one saw him."
"He said in the letter that he knew he shouldn't break the relationship, and he knew he shouldn't ask for extravagant things."
"I have nothing to begin with, so I shouldn't bother you at will."
"This is the last interruption. When I saw this letter, he had already left this place and enlisted in the army..."
When Xie Chen turned to this page, he also remained silent.
This page of the diary looks particularly old compared to the other pages.
The tear stains on it are still fresh and visible.
Xie Chen sighed.
The most uncomfortable thing about feelings is regret.
Whether it is family, love or friendship, there will always be times in life when things are not satisfactory.
When Xie Chen was about to turn the last page, he felt that the whole room had become extremely quiet.
The silence was unusual.
It gives people a more timid feeling.
Xie Chen knew what this meant, and strange stories quietly appeared in this diary, but these could not stop him.
The last page of the diary was finally opened.
A bloody word appeared in front of his eyes.
Hatred, sadness.
All kinds of complex feelings intertwined, and it could be said that Xie Chen's whole person was enveloped.
"July 15th, get married."
Xie Chen was stunned. Isn’t this the damn Ghost Festival?
Why did you choose to get married on the Hungry Ghost Festival?
Xie Chen couldn't help but swallow, and the whole room shook, as if it was about to collapse at any time.
"Ms. sir, are you here to marry me?"
A long voice sounded throughout the room, and the source of the voice was the coffin in front of Xie Chen.
Under the hijab of the red-dressed bride inside, she slowly opened her eyes.
Xie Chen found that he could move again and subconsciously took several steps back.
The cold chill from being hugged before swept over again, making all the limbs in his body a little stiff.
Xie Chen finally understood all the causes and consequences of this matter.
Unable to love her, she was forced into a ghost marriage by her own mother.
It is estimated that his mother-in-law was kept in the dark from the beginning to the end, and it was only at the end that such a big change occurred, and he had an additional mother-in-law who did not reject him.
In fact...it was just because I was stimulated after my daughter died.
To put it bluntly, it can be considered schizophrenia.
"I see."
"That's why the doll's appearance becomes worse and worse day by day as the wedding approaches."
"That's why the person who introduced me here was the paper matchmaker from the underworld."
Xie Chen has completely figured out the story line of this dungeon.
The bride and her beloved man are far apart.
A ghost marriage from hell was arranged by his mother.
After getting married, she was drunk and lost her virginity by her father-in-law.
His own mother killed that beast and burned him beyond human form.
The daughter who was brought home eventually took the poison herself.
When he dies, he wears the wedding dress prepared for himself.
…………
Xie Chen's brain was in chaos, and he was a little confused now which side was more real.
The first floor of the ancient house is "home".
The second floor of the old house is hell.
Xie Chen looked at the bride in red who stood up slowly from the blood coffin in front of her.
The expression on his face became calmer.
There was no movement from the pocket watch in his pocket, and he didn't feel the slightest bit in danger.
She never wanted to harm herself from beginning to end.
She slowly walked out of the coffin and came to herself step by step.
Drops of blood dripped down her cheeks. This time, instead of splattering blood on the floor, it seeped directly into her face.
Because of the red hijab, Xie Chen couldn't tell clearly whether she was "crying".
Or was it just the blood in the coffin that got on her body.
The white jade hands of the bride in red slowly stretched out and gently placed them on her cheeks.
"Xie Lang, is it really you?"
The room was still filled with chill, but Xie Chen could still feel the emotional fluctuations.
Do not know why?
Hot tears fell involuntarily from his eyes.
A person's tears are transparent.
A person's tears are blood red.
Xie Chen smiled slightly.
"It's me who kept you waiting."
A searing heat broke the coldness in the room.
The surrounding wooden boards were penetrated, and a little flame also shot out from outside the wooden wall.
In just an instant, the entire room was engulfed in flames.
As the flames spread, whether they were puppets or coffins, they all burst into flames.
Finally, following the trend, even the wedding dress of the red bride was burned along with it.
Just as Xie Chen wanted to stretch out her hand, he found that she was not struggling, and even a little joyful laughter came from her mouth.
Under the crackling sound of the flames, it was still clearly visible in his ears.
"thank you for remembering me."
"It's just that I'm sorry for you. I already have no face to see you."
"But I'm glad I can see you again."
Xie Chen didn't know why, but his lips trembled a little.
It was as if he was the person of the same sex as him, seeing the woman he loved throwing himself into the sea of fire.
Xie Chen hurriedly tried to grab her hand.
But when he took this step, the surrounding scene changed again.
The flames subsided in an instant, and the coffin in front of him disappeared.
Instead, he returned to his room.
Boom, boom, boom.
A familiar knock on the door sounded, and Xie Chen looked at the door in a daze.
"Uncle, are you ready?"
"We're coming in to dress you up."
"Miss, everything is almost ready. Now I'm just waiting for you to finish it and then start the ceremony."
