Chapter 59 The God Takes a Wife
“It’s pretty good.”
Qu Lian shook his head, his head was not dizzy and his eyesight was not dazzled.
Holding the table with both hands, Huo Manshu struggled against dizziness and suggested in an unsteady voice, "You should pretend to be fainted after I faint."
The tiredness was so intense that Huo Manshu forced herself to take a few more bites of food, and finally hit her head on the table and fell asleep.
When Huo Manshu regained consciousness again and woke up, her whole body was dim and swaying, as if she was floating in the water.
After careful sensing, Homanshu realized that her hands and feet were tied up, making her unable to move.
It was as if there was a handkerchief on her head, which was a little heavy. The tassels of the handkerchief made a scratchy and itchy feeling on Homanshu's face.
Huo Manshu's mouth was not blocked. She blew twice through her mouth, but it was of no use. The veil was as stable as a rock.
Most people would panic at this time, but Huo Manshu didn't feel anything at all. She was afraid that others wouldn't know she was awake and made a noise: "Excuse me, is there anyone?"
No one answered outside, but Homanshu felt clearly shaken.
After a while, I vaguely heard a sound outside.
"Uncle Bai, is that woman awake?"
He spoke in a strong dialect and with a hint of panic.
Huo Manshu was very sensitive to sounds and immediately recognized the person who had stopped her and Qu Lian at the entrance of the village.
"It's impossible to wake up. The medicine can make her sleep for five days.
Cows can drink medicine, so don’t scare yourself. ”
Uncle Bai was also there, and after listening to Gu Hao's words, he reprimanded him severely.
"Uncle Bai, no, this, if you really wake up, it would be unlucky"
Gu Hao seemed to have some concerns. As soon as he said this, there were people around him who immediately responded to him, "Yes, Uncle Bai, the gods never marry when the bride is awake." < br>
Those people seemed to care about this, and their voices trembled with fear.
They did not shy away from Huo Manshu, and Huo Manshu heard everything. At this time, she had some clues in her heart. It turned out that she was the bride, so she should have been on the sedan chair.
But, what is that god?
Huo Manshu leaned her head on the side of the sedan and listened carefully to what those people were talking about.
"Uncle Bai, why don't you go back today."
Gu Hao couldn't help but persuade him to go back. The omen today was too bad and he was a little scared.
"Why go back? The sacrifice is only for today. If you miss today, what is the use of this woman?"
Uncle Bai seemed to have some stubborn reasons and firmly disagreed with Gu Hao's proposal.
"Little Mouse, don't forget, you still owe me a lot of money."
Uncle Bai saw that Gu Hao was timid and began to threaten: "Your father doesn't know yet. If he does, he will break your legs."
"If you help Uncle Bai accomplish this matter today, Uncle Bai will no longer mention the money, and the account between us will be wiped out."
It seemed that Uncle Bai's suggestion moved Gu Hao, and Huo Manshu felt that the sedan moved again.
Huo Manshu felt that if she was making some noise at this time, it would probably frighten people outside.
Thinking about it, she lowered her voice and coughed twice.
"Ahem."
"Ah!!!"
Together with Huo Manshu's cough, there were the miserable screams of the villagers outside.
Huo Manshu clearly felt that the speed of the sedan had accelerated a lot.
"That."
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
As soon as Huo Manshu spoke, the screams outside became even louder, the sedan moved faster, and Huo Manshu felt a push on her back. Huo Manshu was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly became interested.
When the people outside slowed down a little, she made some noise, and then they screamed and ran quickly carrying the sedan.
I don't know how much time passed, but Huo Manshu heard the sound of a suona outside.
There are also noisy voices.
But what caught Huo Manshu's attention the most was the loud breathing of those carrying the sedan chair outside.
Huo Manshu blinked innocently. She felt as if the people outside were about to lose their breath.
"Uncle Bai, someone is really going to die"
Gu Hao, such a big man, had a cry in his voice: "This is unlucky. The ghosts roaring and screaming along the way are so scary."
Gu Hao got off the sedan and sat down on the ground: "Uncle Bai, is she really awake?"
Gu Hao's hands were shaking, "Uncle Bai, why don't we open the sedan and take a look."
"What nonsense are you talking about? That is the bride of the god. You have to see it first. You are not afraid of losing your life."
Uncle Bai hit Gu Hao on the head and warned him: "Don't come up with such crooked ideas. Do you think you are a god?"
Looking at Gu Hao's unconvinced eyes, Uncle Bai said again: "Even if she wakes up, she has to marry the god today!"
Uncle Bai and Gu Hao communicated in dialect, so naturally they didn't avoid Huo Manshu, who didn't know dialect.
This also led to Huo Manshu understanding almost all the things he had only vaguely guessed.
Asking her to marry a god, Huo Manshu felt that she was not lucky enough.
She thought that the gods might not be so lucky either.
"It will be bad luck."
Huo Manshu seemed to be babbling, but her words could be heard by Gu Hao and others outside the sedan.
The most coincidental thing was that after Homanshu finished speaking, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, and then it started pouring without warning.
Because her hands and feet were tied, Ho Manshu had difficulty moving and could not see the spectacular scene outside.
But from the changed suona, she could also feel the panic of those people.
"The gods are angry, it's a big disaster! It's a big disaster!"
Uncle Bai and Gu Hao around Huo Manshu had numb scalps. No one was more frightened than them.
He mechanically turned his head to look at the sedan beside him, his eyes fixed on the position of Huo Manshu, as if he could see her through the sedan.
They were a little sensitive to begin with, but Homanshu's raving words and this bolt of lightning completely destroyed their defense.
"Uncle Bai, I just said no, no, people will die."
Gu Hao not only shouted hoarsely, but also knelt on the ground in despair: "The God is angry, our ancient village is finished."
"Why are you crazy? It's just a coincidence!"
Although Uncle Bai was scared, he quickly calmed down: "Don't scare yourself, quickly carry the sedan to the temple."
Uncle Bai seemed to be talking to himself: "The gods will be happy when they see the bride."
Gu Hao originally didn't want to act on Uncle Bai's words, but he couldn't deny that Uncle Bai's words moved his heart again.
The most important thing now is to calm down the anger of the God. What if the God is really satisfied with the bride Huo Manshu?
"Uncle Bai, we are only responsible for bringing people up. I will no longer care about the rest."
Gu Hao only agreed to do this thing. If it failed, he would withdraw.
"I know that I will be in charge of all subsequent sacrifices."
Uncle Bai whispered to himself in a low voice, as if he was stunned: "This year it is indeed my turn to host."
