    Chapter Index

    The flowing water mat in the countryside is a bit rough, but it is inexplicably fragrant.

    The vegetable shed for cooking is set up outside, and the aroma of rice steaming on the stove comes from the cave kitchen on the side.

    People gathered around the table to grab the food, and they all ate deliciously.

    But Ji Ning kept thinking that there were one or two corpses somewhere, so he had no appetite.

    Tomorrow is the wedding day, and I don’t know when the turn of events will occur.Will she have a chance to see the famous ghost wedding scene?

    “Little girl, let’s eat some vegetables. Do you think our country food is not to your liking?”

    Ji Ning was thinking silently, but she didn’t notice that her chopsticks had poked into the rice several times, and she was found to be inattentive to eating.

    The person who asked her was a local man in his late thirties, who tried to talk to her in Mandarin.

    “Okay, I’m eating.” Ji Ning said politely, and quickly picked up a chopstick and put it into the bowl.

    The man asked again: “Little girl, how old are you? Have you dated someone?”

    At this time, everyone at the table paid attention to Ji Ning.

    Including Shen Yu.

    In fact, the question doesn’t matter, but in front of a group of NPCs and Teacher Shen who she dare not look directly at, her answer must not only be careful not to be OOC, but also be normal.

    Considering her “virgin” status, Ji Ning replied in a low voice: “She is 20 years old and has no boyfriend.”

    The male NPC was confused again: “Why don’t you find a partner at this age? We have many 20-year-old girls here, and they all have babies.”

    Ji Ning lowered her head as she ate her food, pretending to be shy and silent.

    She felt that this man’s words and eyes had ulterior motives. His eyes seemed to eat her up.Ji Ning felt a little uncomfortable.

    “It is normal for urban girls to focus on their studies and career. It is normal for them to marry later and have children later.”

    A low-alcoholic voice sounded, blocking out the male NPC’s next words.

    Ji Ning raised her head and looked at the person who spoke to her, who was Shen Yu sitting opposite.

    He’s expression was very relaxed and his tone was not tense, as if he was just chatting and joining in the fun.But it left others speechless.

    Ji Ning felt like she, a student, was being bullied at this moment, and the teacher stepped in to protect her.

    Because Shen Yu he behaved too naturally.Let her only feel this way.

    She held the bowl and looked at Shen Yu, wanting to thank him with her eyes.But when he looked over, he just nodded expressionlessly.

    Although he himself said that he should not treat him as a teacher, he really still looks like the unsmiling science teacher…​​

    After eating, it was almost dark.

    Under the arrangement of her host, Ji Ning slept in a row of cave dwellings downstairs with many female guests who came from afar.

    The earthen kang is very big, and six or seven people can sleep on one kang when sleeping vertically.

    Ji Ning is the youngest and sleeps on the far side.The wedding is going to be held early tomorrow, so everyone quickly gets on the kang and wraps themselves in quilts after washing up.

    In a daze, Ji Ning heard someone chatting quietly.

    “I heard that a person drowned in this ditch recently. He was quite young. I don’t know which family he belonged to.”

    “The drowned man is evil…”

    “It’s a strange thing. I only heard that someone drowned, but no one said anything when I asked who it was.”

    “By the way, have you seen the groom today? Where has the groom gone? He’s not showing up even though he’s getting married. He’s not the bride.”

    Ji Ning silently thought to herself that the groom was probably the one who drowned. The Yang family had blocked the news to prevent outsiders from knowing.No wonder she smells the fishy smell of rotting corpses.

    I also thought that people who cut paper clothes today did not cover up. It seems that even in the mountains and valleys, shady marriage is not a widely known thing.

    Afterwards, Ji Ning thought about the copy and slowly fell asleep.

    She felt that she hadn’t slept for long, and before her dreams were settled, she heard panicked shouts.Frowning and opening his eyes, the voice became more and more clearly discernible. It seemed that it was not the voice in the dream.

    “Something happened to the bride!”

    “The bride is dead!”

    Electric lights were lit everywhere, and people ran outside with their clothes on and their shoes on.

    Ji Ning was afraid of missing information, so she also got up and followed him.

    There were people crowded in front of the cave dwelling located uphill, facing the entrance of the cave dwelling where the afternoon cooking was done.

    He couldn’t see what was going on inside, but Ji Ning heard someone say in a low voice: “The bride was stuffed into the stove and burned to death.”

    Closing, closing, eating meat tomorrow
