At that time, I only felt a wave of dizziness. After that, I was lifted up by the Taoist once more, "The bride and groom will kowtow twice, and we will walk together on the Road to River Styx —" The Taoist's voice became more and more ear-piercing.

At this moment, I saw the lid of the coffin beside me pop a few times, I thought maybe the fool was struggling inside, I didn't care to sympathize with him, at this moment, I was unable to protect myself, I might even end up in a worse state than him.

Even all the means of escape I had thought of seemed impossible now. Those who knew what the Bai Clan was doing were waiting on the side. The Bai Clan's business was quite large, so it was not a problem for them to hire some helpers.

I turned my head to look and saw that the helpers were standing guard at the entrance with no room for them to escape. I was already dispirited and at their mercy like a puppet.

"The bride and groom, the third bow head, and the soul of the netherworld reunited —"

The woman stood there trembling, as if her entire body was trembling. She probably did not think that there was such an evil thing in this world, and I have finally thought it through. The reason why she urged Bai Zhengtian, that foolish son of hers, to become a "container" for his dead eldest son, was actually to remove these two threats from his body. I had already noticed that she was rubbing her belly from time to time.

I don't know where the guts came from, maybe I felt like I had no other way out, so I made a move. I looked at Bai Zhengtian and sneered, "You're really muddle-headed, blind to not see the situation clearly. This woman clearly wants your son to die so that the child in her womb can inherit all of your inheritance!"

This may be the last straw for me. If Bai Zhengtian still hasn't reacted, then I can already predict that the Taoist will kill me.

Even though Bai Zhengtian was a businessman, he couldn't think straight. He stared at the woman, then took a deep breath.

"No, don't listen to this damn girl. He saw that he was about to die, that's why he wanted to confuse you with his nonsense!" The woman waved her hand to explain, then looked at me viciously. She wanted to strangle me to death, but Bai Zhengtian held her back.

"I believe you."

With just these three words, I was sentenced to death.

"Seeing how this expert is doing, the surrounding area is filled with Yin energy, so I feel that this must be the return of my son's soul. I can't lose my mind right now. Fellow cultivator, please do what you have to do." Bai Zhengtian didn't look at me again when he said that. He seemed to feel uneasy. After all, this was a matter of murder, so he didn't dare to look at me.

"It's best that you believe in ghosts. After I die, I won't let your Bai Clan be at peace!"

Just what kind of bad luck did I have? I'm only eighteen and I've just finished my university entrance examinations. I'm about to enter university and I'll soon be free. I can leave that vicious stepmother and live my own life …

However …

Just as I was lamenting the tragic fate in my heart, the black flower and the two pale white lanterns hanging by the side of the hall started to sway wildly, as if a cold wind was blowing from nowhere, or as if a lot of ghosts were pulling them.

It was at this moment that the woman standing at the side finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She panted heavily as she begged the Daoist priest to hurry up and kill me so we could get married.

I didn't know where the Taoist had gotten me the swindler. He was standing next to me with both hands on my shoulders. I could feel that his entire body was trembling slightly. It was just that due to the large robe, others couldn't see it, but I could clearly feel it.

It must be because he had never seen such a scene before when he was trying to cheat him. Now that he saw it for the first time, it was obvious that he was somewhat flustered. However, in front of Bai Zhengtian, he had to pretend to be calm. He couldn't show the fear in his heart.

I wanted to see him take out a shiny dagger from my chest, and then fiercely grab onto my neck with his other hand. At the same time, the wind in my stomach was swaying even more unsteadily, and in the hall, all the incense on the tables were burning up at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.

The Daoist Priest was a swindler to begin with, so he naturally had never seen such a terrifying scene before. Finally, he could no longer continue acting. His hand trembled as he dropped the knife onto the ground.

At the same time, I felt a whisper in my ear. I wanted to listen to it, but I couldn't hear the whispers. When I wanted to listen, the whispers faded away, as if there was something between them.

But all of a sudden, I thought I heard a man's voice, deep and cold.

"I'm coming to pick you up." "No," he said.

In that instant, I felt as though I couldn't breathe, as though something had blocked my path before me and I immediately fainted.

Faintly, I opened my eyes again to find myself standing there in a red wedding gown, in the middle of a forest I didn't know where, and right next to me was the coffin that had been properly placed there.

"What is this place? Is anyone here?"

In fact, I vaguely remember that I was probably killed by that Taoist, but I remember that the Taoist clearly dropped his knife on the ground, so how did I get here? He thought back to the words he had heard in his ear: "I've come to pick you up." His heart suddenly sank and he was scared to the point of breaking out in cold sweat.

It must be. The ghost of the eldest son of the Bai Clan has come to find me.

I looked around me and saw that no one was around. I didn't know when, but it was already getting late, and I knew that I was in the Yellow Springs. I had no way of getting out of it, so I could only wait here and wait.

He didn't know if he could go to the Underworld and complain if he died a violent death. As I thought of this, I sat down on top of the coffin. At this moment, the coffin in my eyes wasn't that afraid anymore. After all, I was already a dead person, so why would I be afraid of a coffin? I was killed by someone at such a young age, and took advantage of that vicious stepmother's intentions, earning the Bai Clan 500 thousand yuan for nothing.

It was when he was meditating on top of the coffin that he suddenly thought of the fool who had been stuffed into the coffin. Since I'm already dead, that fool should have been killed by her stepmother, right? It was quite pitiful. He was born with an IQ like a five-year-old, but his father was blinded by his stepmother, indirectly causing his death.

I sighed and was about to get up to look at the coffin to see if the fool was in it, but I heard a loud noise coming from under my butt and jumped off the coffin to hide far away.

Could there be more living people in this coffin? No, since I am already dead, the person who came out of the coffin must not be alive.

As I thought about it, I felt even more nervous. I backed away step by step, my hands and feet already cold with fear, and suddenly the coffin stopped moving.

"Dong, dong, dong ~ ~ ~"

Before I could catch my breath, I saw someone knocking on the coffin as if it were a knock.

"Who …" Who's inside! "

I asked loudly, gathering my courage. I'm a dead pig now, and I'm not afraid of boiling water. I walked over to the coffin and opened the lid to see who was inside.

As he thought this, he also felt some comfort in his heart. Fortunately, there were companions along the way, so he didn't feel lonely anymore.

"Wife, ignore him."

Just as I was about to lift up my hand to lift the lid of the coffin, I heard a familiar low and cold voice sound out from behind me. In an instant, I felt as though my entire body was covered in ice, causing my hair to stand up.

The voice seemed to be whispering in my ear, and I turned my head stiffly, my heart pounding as I imagined the ghastly, deathly face behind me.

"Everyone is a ghost … "Unafraid, unafraid …" I kept on telling myself in my heart that my disappointing body was shaking. When I took in a deep breath and turned around to look, the person standing behind me was beyond my expectations.

The man was wearing a white shroud. He had his hands behind his back and was smiling at me.

I instantly widened my eyes. Isn't he that fool? Now it seemed that he was no longer an idiot. Instead, his eyes were brimming with wisdom and cleverness.

"Very good." The fool also sized me up before nodding in satisfaction. His smile became even more joyous.

"Very good … What's good? " I tremblingly asked, "Idiot, are you dead as well? If you're standing here, then the person inside the coffin …"

When he heard me call him a fool, he seemed a little displeased and frowned slightly, but then relaxed again. He shrugged nonchalantly, raised his hand to me, pointed to the coffin, and said, "I'm Bai Ya, your husband of the netherworld marriage. The one in the coffin is Bai Wei, my younger brother."

I was immediately petrified. On the spot, the two of them looked exactly the same, but their personalities were completely different. One of them looked foolish and easy to bully while the other Bai Ya looked extremely smart.

"We... All dead? "

The question I'm most concerned about now is whether we're still alive.

"Dead." Bai Ya smiled and said simply. Before I could sit there and cry, he added, "But he's not dead yet."
