HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
105 - Ghost Bride

Xiao Shuxiang, Wang Zhao and Ling Qing Zhu gasped to listen to Liu Wei Lin's words just now. They paid close attention to the disguise plan mentioned by their friend.


Liu Wei Lin said in a soft voice, "We will be joining the ranks behind the corpses. Close your eyes and hold your breath for a moment as we pass through that gate. Don't make a fuss, just pay attention to whatever happens later. You can't talk at all either. Can you guys?"


Xiao Shuxiang, "Mm. I have no trouble doing it, but you mean holding your breath as you pass through the gate what does that mean?"


"This is just my concern. It was likely that there was some kind of invisible barrier at that gate. If we go through it while breathing, the ghosts will immediately know we are the ones who are still alive. It's just a form of prevention, but I'm asking you not to let your guard down."


Xiao Shuxiang nodded. Wang Zhao did, though he was still very pale and nervous-but he was sure he could still do what Liu Wei Lin said.


Ling Qing Zhu also understood. He and his friends began to take place in the back row of the corpses and did what Liu Wei Lin had explained.


Originally, Ling Qing Zhu was standing in front of Xiao Shuxiang. But his shoulder was pulled by the young man and their position was changed. He was jolted because of the incident that lasted that split second.


"Shuxiang," Ling Qing Zhu's voice was very slow.


Xiao Shuxiang turned his head back and shook his head slowly, he whispered. "You can't be in front. What if there's a problem?"


"I can-"


"I can't see you in danger, it's not the job of a Guardian Protector. So you're just behind, okay?"


"............." Ling Qing Zhu said nothing. He simply stared at the back of the figure before him and the beautiful strung hair. His facial expression did not change at all, but his eyes were slightly different.


Liu Wei Lin himself was in the other row and aligned with Xiao Shuxiang. He also exchanged places with Wang Zhao for having the same worries. As a disciple of one of the Holy Peak Mountain Elders, he had an obligation to protect the weaker disciples from him.


The line of corpses began to pass through the gate and when it was Xiao Shuxiang and his friends' turn, they began to hold their breath and close their eyes as previously agreed.


A pair of children carrying candles and accompanying the living corpses were seen blowing out their candles when they arrived at the pavilion courtyard. The flame that burned the candle was getting higher and green in color.


The faceless guests were seen clapping and starting to cheer cheerfully. They continued to do so and the sound of applause and cheers echoed when on the other side two rows of dead bodies were also seen.


When viewed from above, the courtyard of the pavilion is very spacious and there are two large gates that can be seen. One gate was in the east and the other was the gate where Xiao Shuxiang and his friends had come.


The sound of firecrackers sounded like each other. Xiao Shuxiang and his companions made it through that gate without any hindrance. They can now breathe and open their eyes even though all four are alert.


Also seen from above is a large building with three floors decorated with lanterns and brightly colored banners, all colorful and festive.


While the other side of the courtyard was also dense with at least a hundred washrooms. The character ⁇ [XII] was dark red on the window and a lantern was hanging on the door.


^^^* [Xi] 'Happiness'/Luck, a character more identified with marriage.^^^


There is also a magnificent stage, decorated with golden lanterns. The figure of an old man was seen walking and standing on the stage. The sounds of firecrackers, applause and cheers slowly faded. The mood changed again.


The old man was the leader of this ceremony, Wang Zhao was shocked when he saw his figure that turned out to have a face. He listened to the man make a sound. Xiao Shuxiang, Ling Qing Zhu and Liu Wei Lin took notice.


"The sky has blessed us..! The time of luck begins. The bride and groom have arrived---"


Wang Zhao was startled to the point of subconsciously opening his mouth wide. He did not expect that apparently this line of corpses were the groom and bride to marry.


Ling Qing Zhu, Xiao Shuxiang and Liu Wei Lin were also shocked. Actually they already knew that this was the Ghost Wedding Festival. But it was unexpected that the line of corpses that they followed behind him were the brides.


Wang Zhao looked towards Ling Qing Zhu and then looked at the rows of corpses that were next to him. Right now, there are four rows of corpses that will soon be married somehow.


The children were dressed in bright red and then crowded around the rows of corpses. Each one of them attracted someone to be taken to the rooms that were on both sides of the courtyard. Wang Zhao was shocked when his hand was also pulled along.


Wang Zhao looked at Liu Wei Lin and seemed to be asking for help from the young man, but Liu Wei Lin with a lip gesture asked him to calm down and follow whatever happened.


"..........."


Ling Qing Zhu was also pulled along by a daughter. He did not rebel at all and even casually entered a room with a lantern on his doorstep.


Xiao Shuxiang was also pulled by a girl and taken into one of the rooms. He stared warily at the faceless child and noticed how the child was waving and the door was closed in a loud voice.


"What does this boy want to do?" Xiao Shuxiang glared at the faceless daughter and tried to refrain as much as possible from doing rude things.


There was a dressing table inside the room where Xiao Shuxiang was located and a set of bridal clothes with intricate red-black embroidery. The clothes were hung neatly on a shelf.


There was another faceless girl in the room, she patted the bench and as if gestured for Xiao Shuxiang to come and sit there.


The Guardian Protector from Ling Qing Zhu was observing closely. He felt that the little ghosts here were not very clever, the proof of his identity as a living being had yet to be revealed.


Xiao Shuxiang concluded that as long as he did not speak, then these ghosts could not distinguish living and dead humans. So she sat down at the dresser as instructed.


The faceless daughter started walking over and helped her take off her outer clothes. Xiao Shuxiang was actually startled, yet just as Liu Wei Lin--said they should pay attention to the situation and not make a fuss.


"Among these ghosts only the old leader had a face. I felt very uncomfortable when I saw it,"


The two little ghosts helped Xiao Shuxiang dress up as a bride. They were seen jumping around merrily and started to make a completely incomprehensible sound. It was just that when one of the children held onto Xiao Shuxiang's arm and pointed towards the mirror-the young man knew what these little ghosts meant.


There was a copper mirror in front of Xiao Shuxiang and he could see the reflection of himself.


She has smooth and bright facial features with shoulders pulled like a graceful bow. His nose is straight and slender. She has a charming posture and even looks perfect with beautiful eyelashes and lips. It was the most dazzling face and body and would not make anyone tired of looking at it.


These two little ghosts clearly pointed towards the reflection of Xiao Shuxiang's body and it was as if they were giving him a compliment.


Xiao Shuxiang breathed softly and inwardly clenched in admiration. Even wearing any type of clothing does not fade its incredible charm.


"Any impossible being would believe that I was the one who had once made the ground in the three empires covered in blood for 40 days upon seeing this posture and face. Tsk, tsk, tsk... I really need to take the time to praise this perfect creature of God."


Xiao Shuxiang shook his head slowly. This feature of his face that does not look ferocious can fool many people. He was obviously born with a face like a good-natured plain young man.


The two little ghosts held onto Xiao Shuxiang's arm and seemed to tell her to sit in front of the dressing table again. One of them even started combing Xiao Shuxiang's hair and another person took out a head covering cloth that matched the color of his clothes.


"..........."


Xiao Shuxiang actually did not feel that there was anything wrong with her appearance as a ghost bride right now. But what the fuck with that head covering?!


She was married and she knew every way through the marriage procession. It's just, isn't the head covering with a beautiful red cloth that's more suitable for the bride ..... A girl?!


"Ehm... Why are my feelings getting so bad?" Xiao Shuxiang swallowed.
