Yes, the groom is missing.
According to what visitors said, the procession to welcome the bride was going well.
However, after turning around a mountain road in the middle, the groom suddenly disappeared, leaving only the welcoming horse in the same place. He searched the area but could not find his figure.
Everyone was shocked and couldn't find the groom, so they had to send someone over to explain the situation.
When the village chief heard this, he suddenly felt heartbroken.
Why are there so many things happening on this special day? It's really unlucky.
Immediately organize a group of people to look for the groom.
Du Yongyu and Miss Shen looked at each other and looked into the room where Ye Ming was, but there was no one there.
Just when the two of them were wondering, they suddenly felt someone tapping their shoulders.
Ye Ming suddenly appeared behind the two of them and looked at them:
"It's only been a while, but we've almost developed a tacit understanding."
"Huh~~Brother Shanyuan, you are so scary!"
As a master, Du Yongyu was suddenly a little frightened when someone was so close to him. He understood that it was a wise choice not to compete with this person before.
Miss Shen didn't have any feelings in this regard. She had long been accustomed to this person being different from ordinary people.
At this time I just asked:
"Brother, should we go and take a look too?"
"That's right, you're a bastard who doesn't watch the excitement."
Ye Ming said, already getting on the bullock cart.
Only then did Du Yongyu realize that the cow had appeared beside him silently, and it was also pulling a cart.
Now he was a little doubtful whether he was a match for this cow.
He was not allowed to think so much. Miss Shen had already boarded the bullock cart and it was just him.
Du Yongyu looked at the horse left by the bandit leader, then at the buffalo, and still chose to ride in the bullock cart.
The three of them went to the scene of the accident with the villagers.
It's only more than four miles away from here, at a bend in the river.
At this time, the area was already crowded with people, all looking around, but nothing was found. Everything around them was normal.
The village chief's daughter, dressed in bridal clothes, followed her here regardless of etiquette.
When the groom was nowhere to be seen, he burst into tears.
This groom was her childhood sweetheart. The two had been engaged since childhood and had a very good relationship. However, they were said to be a perfect match, but she never expected that such a thing would happen on their special day.
When Du Yongyu and Miss Shen saw this, they felt quite sympathetic and felt very uncomfortable.
Ye Ming walked to the wedding gift box of the wedding team and reached out to pick up a paper cut with the word "囍".
Everyone saw that he was a madman, so they didn't take it seriously and continued to look for someone.
But I heard Ye Ming suddenly say:
"Who cut this paper-cut?"
A half-year-old boy next to him said:
"My mother cut it."
"Really, are you sure?"
Ye Ming said, picking up another paper cut with the word "囍".
Although the two paper-cuts are both "囍" and similar in size, their craftsmanship and style are obviously different.
Seeing this, the half-grown boy took a closer look at the two paper-cuts and found that they were different.
Pointing to the paper-cut picked up after the night light, he said:
"My mother cut this one."
Hearing this, Ye Ming shook the card he had picked up earlier and said:
"What about this one?"
“I don’t know, this paper-cutting was all done by my mother. She can’t read, so she can only cut according to the words.
The one you took looks more like it was cut by a literate person.
Watch...watch, be more dexterous. "
The half-grown boy held it in for a long time before he thought of such a word.
No one around would pay attention to a piece of paper-cutting. Now that the groom is missing and the happy event is about to be ruined, who will care about a few pieces of paper.
Others won't pay attention, but Miss Shen will.
She is very sensitive to every move of this cheap brother.
Seeing that he was talking about the problem of paper-cutting, he also stepped forward to check.
Ye Ming handed the paper-cut directly to her:
"Look at this. Did you find anything?"
Miss Shen took the paper-cut in her hand and observed it carefully.
When Du Yongyu saw this, he also watched curiously.
I just don’t understand what’s so special about just a paper cut.
However, after Miss Shen observed for a while, her eyes narrowed slightly and she looked at Ye Ming and said:
"That old servant..."
Ye Ming smiled and nodded:
"My memory is pretty good, I actually recognized it."
"Brother, are you saying that this matter has something to do with the old servant?"
Miss Shen couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not sure if it has something to do with the old servant, but it must have something to do with the owner of this thing."
Ye Ming shook the paper-cut in his hand and said.
After hearing this, Miss Shen nodded and asked again:
"Then brother, are you sure?"
"We haven't figured out the other party's details yet, so how can we be sure?"
Du Yongyu listened to the conversation between the two. Although he understood every word, when they were put together, he had no idea what it meant. He couldn't help but ask:
"You two, what riddle are you trying to solve? Can you tell me?"
Ye Ming heard this and said casually:
"Don't ask about strange things that disturb gods."
"Oh~~"
Du Yongyu agreed and stopped asking.
People on the roadside looked for the groom until dark, but could not find him.
The bride has burst into tears.
The village chiefs of the two villages gathered together and asked the great hero Du Yongyu to come to him.
In their opinion, this man has the ability to kill and run away bandits, and he also has the ability to find people.
Du Yongyu would naturally not be looking for anyone, not to mention that this matter involved strange forces and chaos, so it was not something he could interfere with.
Just when he didn't know how to reply to the two village chiefs, he saw Ye Ming taking over the whole matter and saying that he could help find the groom.
Seeing that a lunatic was taking over the job, both of them felt unreliable.
Du Yongyu was sensible and took the initiative to help Ye Ming speak up and agreed to the matter.
Later, Ye Ming said that this work was not in vain, and he still needed to be paid.
The two village chiefs asked him what he wanted, and Ye Ming smiled and pointed to the horse the groom had ridden before.
It was a white horse with shiny coat, which looked very strong and strong.
Although a horse is expensive, it is naturally not as important as a son (son-in-law), so the two agreed without any hesitation.
Seeing their agreement, Ye Ming laughed and looked very happy.
Later, he told the two village chiefs to take good care of their horses and ride them away when he comes back.
After the matter was settled, the three of them left in a buffalo cart to travel at night.
For some reason, Du Yongyu always felt that after Ye Ming said he wanted the white horse, the buffalo pulling the cart seemed a little jealous and dissatisfied. He pulled the cart harder than before, with a bit of resentment...
Impossible, how can a cow have so many strange emotions? It must be because he hasn't had a good rest, hallucinations, hallucinations...
Du Yongyu, who had some self-doubt, decided to rest in the car for a while to recover.
The bullock cart left the official road at some point and walked onto the mountain trail.
The trail was very bumpy, and Du Yongyu, who finally fell asleep for a while, was quickly shaken awake.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the night was dark and the cold wind was blowing, and my sleepiness disappeared.
Looking at Ye Ming next to him again, he looked like he was fast asleep.
Although separated by the car curtain, Du Yongyu knew that Ms. Shen sitting in the car was probably not sleeping either, so he asked:
"Miss Shen, are we about to come into contact with something different?"
Miss Shen’s voice came from the car:
"Is Mr. Du afraid of ghosts?"
"I haven't encountered it before, so I can't say."
"Then what should Master Du do if we meet him?"
"Try to have a fight first. If you can't fight, then let's talk about it."
After hearing this, Miss Shen was silent for a while and then started talking about something else.
The small talk between the two was quite relaxed.
After walking forward for a while, the bright moon in the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the earth became dark.
Du Yongyu took out the fire folder, lit a torch, and illuminated the surrounding area.
While walking forward, I suddenly felt a cold and biting wind blowing, which made me shiver.
Although the twelfth lunar month is relatively cold, it is not like this.
Moreover, after this gust of wind blew, the torch in Du Yongyu's hand suddenly went out, and the surrounding environment became a little different.
I always feel inexplicably that there are pairs of eyes around me looking at me, which makes me a little hairy, and cold sweat breaks out on my back unknowingly.
"Miss Shen, do you feel something is wrong around you?"
"If your guess is correct, we should be targeted by ghosts."
Miss Shen's calm voice came from the car.
Hearing Miss Shen's calmness, Du Yongyu felt relieved unconsciously, but he still held the hilt of the sword at his waist tightly with one hand.
It was just a bit speechless to see that Ye Ming was still sleeping soundly next to him, as if he didn't feel any danger at all.
I always feel like this person is out of tune with the surrounding atmosphere.
The buffalo cart continued to move forward, and "thumping" sounds began to appear all around. I couldn't tell what it was coming from, but it just sounded creepy.
At this moment, Du Yongyu felt a little numb.
Miss Shen's voice came from the car again:
"Master Du, relax, adjust your breathing, don't be afraid, they are just a bunch of dead people.
You are not afraid of living people, why are you afraid of dead people? "
When Du Yongyu heard this, although he was still nervous in his heart, as a tall and dignified man, it would be too embarrassing if he showed his timidity in front of a woman. He immediately overcame his fear by force. No matter what he felt in his heart, he gradually relaxed on the surface.
Not long after, Du Yongyu heard the sound of ghosts crying around him. At first, the sounds of ghosts crying were small, but after a while, they gradually became louder.
The cry was so frightening that anyone who was timid might be frightened to death.
Du Yongyu was also frightened in his heart, but when he saw that Miss Shen in the car was still very calm, his face suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Look at other people, a woman has such courage, is not afraid of danger, and is stronger than herself.
Thinking of this, Du Yongyu once again plucked up the courage to bite the bullet, stay vigilant, and look relaxed.
At this time, I suddenly felt something in my ear, blowing on my cheek, and it seemed like a hand was gently touching my neck.
Du Yongyu was shocked and couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled out his sword and struck the side with the sword.
Suddenly, he saw a puff of white smoke coming from the empty space next to him, followed by a woman's painful scream.
Although he couldn't see the other party, Du Yongyu felt that he had killed something.
This blow seemed to anger the surrounding ghosts, and the ghost cries turned into ghost roars, which kept ringing in his ears.
Du Yongyu could feel a large number of ghosts coming around him.
Fortunately, the sword in his hand is full of murderous power and can directly kill ghosts.
Relying on the expert's crisis sensing ability, even if the ghost cannot be seen, he can generally determine the direction of the ghost.
The ghosts rushed towards him and were repeatedly killed by his sword.
When he was besieged by the ghosts at first, Du Yongyu was still very panicked.
But when I got to the back of the fight, I suddenly discovered that these things were actually just that.
Although the sound is scary, it is actually not as scary as imagined.
After gaining confidence, Du Yongyu waved the sword in his hand and began to actively eliminate ghosts.
For a while, I saw white smoke rising from the forest, and the screams and wails of ghosts were endless. It was hard to tell whether the ghosts were scaring and harming people, or whether people were killing ghosts.
Du Yongyu only felt that after this battle, he felt quite contented.
Before I knew it, the fear of ghosts had disappeared.
After a long time, the surrounding wind dissipated, everything returned to normal, and the scary feeling disappeared.
Du Yongyu knew that the ghosts should have been killed.
After dealing with these ghosts, he admired Miss Shen even more.
This guy sat calmly in the car the whole time, without any fear at all. He was much calmer than the big man like him, which was really impressive.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Miss Shen's voice suddenly coming from the car:
"Master Du, have all the ghosts receded?"
"Well, back off."
"Can you help me out of the car?"
"No problem...help you, what's wrong with you?"
"I... was so scared that my legs were weak..."
...
