"Is the weird thing the green wedding dress you mentioned?"
When Lu Jing heard this word, he temporarily put aside the possibility that he might have the potential to be a scumbag, and asked after calming down.
"That's right." Aoi pointed to the porcelain doll girl who was still unconscious.
"Her name is Li Li. She is actually an ordinary girl from a scholarly family. Her father is a county magistrate and has arranged a marriage for her. Seeing that the wedding day was coming soon, she wanted to pick out a wedding dress for herself, so she went to the street. After looking around, she didn't know why she fell in love with the one she was wearing now.
"When I went home and happily wore it, I lost control of my body. On the night of the wedding, the groom had no idea what he was welcoming into the door, so he was quickly fed to rats. He was also the first to be killed. people.
“Then it left the previous county and found several men who were willing to marry it along the way, but none of those men survived the wedding night without exception.
"I followed it when it killed the seventeenth person. Unfortunately, because I had too little information at the time, I was never able to stop it. It wasn't until the twenty-third person was killed that I could barely figure out its behavior. law.
"You also know what happened next. Until I met you, Mr. Lu, no one was willing to believe the words I left on the wall. Or even if they had believed it, they couldn't help but laugh when they saw the rat tail soup that night. They were so frightened that they refused to drink the soup, and in the end they were inevitably killed."
"That bowl of stuff was originally called Rat Tail Soup. Is it really not poisonous? Also, what does the word "Great Opportunity" refer to that you left on the wall?"
Lu Jing finally asked the question he was most concerned about tonight.
After all, the visual impact of the previous bowl of dark green soup that smelled of stench and smelled like canned herring was too strong. Although he was fine after drinking it, he felt an unprecedented sensation soon after he drank it. Comfortable, but Lu Jing still felt a little uneasy.
As a result, after he finished speaking, he saw a trace of hesitation in Aoi's eyes.
"Wait, you can't be sure, right?" Lu Jing couldn't help but take a breath.
"Except for you, there is no other person in this world who has drank that bowl of rat tail soup, because once someone drinks that soup, gets married to the person it possesses, and resolves the obsession in its heart, it will Disappear between heaven and earth.”
Kui paused and continued, "But someone knocked over the soup bowl earlier, and afterwards I found some leftover soup and asked a colleague to help test it. It was indeed non-toxic and beneficial.
"Actually, most similar things are like this. Even though they act cunningly, bring harm to one party, and have blood on their hands, most of them are because of unresolved obsessions in their hearts and act purely on instinct. If anyone can help them resolve their obsessions, , not only will they not harm you, they will also repay you. From this point of view, their thoughts are much simpler than humans."
"It's a pity that the obsessions of most monsters can no longer be solved due to various reasons. You are lucky enough to meet Xinzi Wu Baijiu Shiyi. It just appeared not long ago, and its obsession is very simple. If a man is willing to marry it and complete all the wedding rituals, it will quietly leave this world."
When Lu Jing heard this, he remembered something again, "You said you had investigated it before, so you should know its story?"
"That's right." Kui nodded. After speaking, she looked at Lu Jing thoughtfully, "You want to know? Didn't it tell you? It's better not to inquire about some things."
"No matter what, we can still be considered a couple, even though we only have time for a cup of tea." Lu Jing said with a bitter smile, "I still want to know what happened to it to make it look like this. "
"Well, the story is actually very simple. If you want to hear it, I will tell you. The original owner of this wedding dress was a girl who was similar to Li Li. She was well-educated and well-educated. She came from an official family and her father was also a local official.
"She had a childhood sweetheart who was a scholar from a poor family and whose family background was not as good as hers. But her father couldn't stand his daughter's insistence, so he finally married her to the scholar, let him study in the academy, and gave him enough money. Due to financial difficulties, he went to Beijing to take the exam.
"The story is quite happy up to this point. However, something unexpected happened. It was just around the corner that she was going to get married. Unexpectedly, her father was reported for accepting bribes and was dismissed from office and imprisoned. Her family's fortune plummeted. On the other side, The scholar she was engaged to was actually the top scorer in high school!
"Many wealthy families in the capital are very interested in this tall, handsome, and innocent new scholar. Among them are a Taiwei and two Hanlin Academy bachelors. They are all high-ranking officials of third rank or above. On the day the results were released, they asked their family members to I stayed at the place where the results were issued early in the morning, waiting for someone to catch someone under the list.
"At first, the scholar was still thinking about his childhood sweetheart, but then he was gradually moved by others. After all, marrying the granddaughter of the current prince or marrying the daughter of a prison officer, which one of the two would have a greater impact on his future prospects? It goes without saying that the official career is powerful.
"The only question left is, what to do with the previous engagement? Fortunately, the girl's father didn't think much of the poor scholar at first, and few people knew about it. As long as the person involved doesn't make trouble, everything will happen after that. No one will mention it again.
"However, no one knows better than the scholar how much the girl loves him. He knows that no matter how much he is willing to pay, the other party will definitely not break off the engagement with him.
"So the scholar just kept doing nothing and became completely cruel. Not long after meeting the saint, he secretly rushed back to the village alone. The poor girl had already put on her wedding dress and was waiting expectantly for the arrival of her husband, the number one scholar. He married her, but he didn't expect that what awaited him would be a cruel nightmare.
"After the scholar came home, he used sweet talk to trick her into walking to an abandoned well in the suburbs. He pushed her into the well when she was not prepared, and completely sealed the mouth of the well regardless of her pleas, making sure that she would never be able to climb out of the well again. After his voice could not be heard by others, he hurried back to the capital.
"Not long after, he got married to the Taiwei's granddaughter, and his career has indeed been prosperous since then."
"What's going on with those mice?" Lu Jing asked again.
"Well, there was not only the girl who broke her leg in her wedding dress, but also a nest of rats. It happened that the nearby flood burst its banks and flooded a lot of places. The rats couldn't find food, so she ended up In fact, he didn’t starve to death…
"But until her death, she never hated the scholar in her heart. On the contrary, she was still dreaming of marrying the scholar. This obsession was attached to the wedding dress and became the character of Xin Zi Wu Bai Jiu Shi. one."
Aoi's tone did not change from beginning to end, as if she was really just telling a completely unrelated story.
However, her cold voice still gave this already miserable story a layer of coldness.
"Sentiment always leads to misunderstanding. The past moon now shines upon the new man." Lu Jing thought of the last half-line of the poem that Can Nian recited before his death, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
