Chapter 132: The Dead Town of Broken Flowers 72 [Entering Happy Street]
Everyone followed Sun Gou'er closely and stepped out of the door again.
At this moment, Sun Gou'er was completely different from before. He was as obedient as a sheep and didn't even dare to turn his head, as if Zhu Sisi was a ghost that frightened him.
They walked along the winding road and soon stepped into a street that was decorated in a very festive way.
The red curtains were like a surging sea of blood, entwined wantonly throughout the streets. On the windows of the shops on both sides, the "囍" characters looked like strange smiling faces.
Sun Gou'er walked at the front of the team tremblingly, his back bent even more, as if he was carrying a heavy burden.
In this gloomy street, the red color, which originally symbolizes joy, now exudes a creepy atmosphere.
Everyone knew that the street they had walked on before was a funeral street, so the one in front of them must be a wedding street.
"It's... right in front... Go ahead and follow this straight line. At the end of the road, you'll see a house. That's the Xue family residence."
Sun Gou'er's voice trembled like fallen leaves in late autumn.
Nanyu looked indifferent and said nonchalantly, "Oh, then go ahead."
Sun Gou'er turned around and left as if he had been pardoned.
In an instant, his body melted into a pool of wax like a candle meeting fire.
Li Mingjie couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "This... I'm so heartless."
Nanyu knew in his heart that Sun Gou'er had done many evil things.
His mother was trafficked here, forced to become pregnant, gave birth to a deformed boy, and was eventually killed by her husband.
Since such scum can no longer provide useful information, there is no need for them to survive in this world.
Nanyu did not explain the reason to everyone, he knew everyone could understand.
The crowd continued to walk along the gloomy Happy Street.
Soon, they arrived at the end of the road.
An ancient house comes into view. Although it does not have the grandeur and luxury of Qiao's house, it has the peaceful and tranquil charm of a courtyard house.
At this time, everyone is shouldering the important task of finding Zhu Niannian, who was arranged to marry someone in a ghost marriage.
When they first entered the Broken Flower Formation, they witnessed a red coffin being carried out of the town.
This undoubtedly added great difficulty to the search for Zhu Niannian.
Zhu Sisi said that her sister is the door to her heart, but what is the key to open the door to her heart?
Everyone fell into deep thought.
Perhaps they need to search this house carefully and maybe they can find some clues.
You can also try to recall every detail since you entered this place. Any tiny clue may be the key to finding the key.
Nan Yu and others stood at the gate of the Xue family, full of doubts about Zhu Niannian and the key to her heart.
They had never seen Zhu Niannian before, and the only connection was the red coffin that was carried out of the town.
The gate of the courtyard is old, dilapidated and covered with dust.
Nanyu knocked on the door gently, but there was no response.
Li Mingjie said with doubts:
"Well, didn't they say that there are still people alive in the Xue family?"
Then he used his ability of perspective to look inside the door.
This sight gave him goose bumps all over his body and he started stuttering.
Nanyu hurriedly asked, "What did you see?"
Li Mingjie replied in a trembling voice: "Dead people, a lot of dead people, a lot of corpses hanging from the eaves!"
Nan Yu kicked the door open without hesitation.
After a loud "bang", the door was kicked open and a corpse fell down, heading straight towards everyone.
The face of the corpse was distorted in an extremely strange way, and everyone saw that his clothes were similar to those of a servant.
What was even more terrifying was that the bodies of the servants were hung in the air, like pork hanging in a slaughterhouse.
Nan Yu looked past the hanging corpses and saw that the entire courtyard was decorated extremely festively, with red cloth hanging all over the yard, just like the decoration of a newlywed wedding. However, against the backdrop of the pile of corpses, there was only endless eeriness and horror.
Although everyone in this terrifying Xue family mansion thought they had seen a lot of storms, the scene before them still made them feel uncomfortable.
They passed the hanging bodies and came into the hall of the courtyard.
A man and a woman were sitting on two armchairs in the middle of the hall. They were already lifeless and their deaths were extremely miserable.
The old man's skin below his head was peeled off, exposing his red flesh, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
The same was true for the women. The expressions on their faces were hideous and terrifying, as if they had suffered great pain in their lives. It seemed that they were cruelly skinned while still alive.
When Zhu Sisi saw the two of them, she became excited and shouted:
"It's them! You're the ones who killed my sister! They're my sister's in-laws!"
When everyone heard this, their doubts grew even greater.
"Can you continue to talk about your sister?" Nan Yu asked.
Zhu Sisi nodded and said in a choked voice that after half a day of understanding, everyone probably knew the reason for the incident.
Zhu Sisi, Zhu Niannian and Xue Yao grew up together. Zhu Niannian and Xue Yao liked each other when they first fell in love, and they were childhood sweethearts.
On the eve of their engagement, fate took a turn.
Xue Yao drank too much and fell on his way home, and died from a spike piercing his brain.
Afterwards, Zhu Niannian was heartbroken.
When Zhu Sisi was about to marry into the Qiao family, she had only been engaged to her sister for two days. When she married into the Qiao family, she heard the news that her sister was going to get married.
Their parents are greedy for money and don't care about their daughters' feelings.
When Zhu Sisi asked her parents who her sister married, she learned that her sister married a dead man!
This was like a bolt from the blue for Zhu Sisi. She never expected that her sister would have to experience a ghost marriage at such a young age.
Zhu Niannian's whereabouts are unknown. Everyone stands in the Xue family mansion filled with a terrifying atmosphere, trying to find clues related to Zhu Niannian from these past events.
Zhu Sisi became more and more excited as she spoke, and her tears couldn't stop flowing. She was filled with grief and heartache for her sister's experience.
As everyone listened to Zhu Sisi's story, they felt sympathy for Zhu Niannian's experience. On the other hand, they were also wondering whether this information contained the key to finding Zhu Niannian and the key to her heart.
Shangguan Qingye was furious about Zhu Niannian being forced into a ghost marriage and said:
"How the hell is this still possible? I remember this ghost marriage has existed since ancient times."
Li Mingjie also shouted angrily:
"Fuck! These two families deserved it for asking for their own death! If I were you two, my methods would definitely be even more cruel than theirs!"
Zhu Sisi just shook her head silently without saying anything.
If they had experienced what he and his sister had experienced, they would have felt more than just anger.
Nanyu frowned and asked Zhu Sisi: "Then you said your sister should be the heart gate, why do you say that?"
Zhu Sisi replied:
"Because when Xue Yao was alive, he told his sister that she was the eternal key to his heart and his sweetheart..."
This answer made everyone fall into deep thought.
