"Empty mountains and white rain, the King Yama is getting married" 。"Dust ↘ Fate √ Literature ? Network Living people do not look, ghosts and spirits avoid ——!" Suddenly, a strange voice like an opera singer rang out, and the wooden door creaked open. 。I clutched at the edge of my bedding, yet stiffened as if unable to move. A heavy drowsiness washed over my mind, my throat unnaturally constricted, wanting to speak but silenced by an icy cold that sealed my lips!My moist tongue circled my lip before biting into it little by little. The pain made me involuntarily part my lips, only to be met with a tongue that slipped in, entwining with mine. The feeling of our lips and teeth together sent my hands instinctively climbing his shoulders, smooth like water against his chest... 。The white robe on my upper body was gently pulled up, and a pair of big hands wandered around my waist. They lightly pressed against my ear, biting my earlobe and blowing a breath into the side of my neck. It sent a shiver down my spine, but it felt so light... 。The clothes were pushed aside, and a wave of coolness rushed in, the slight touch making me shiver. I instinctively leaned into it, this feeling was so strange. My long legs were gently parted by him, and I tried anxiously to open my eyes to see his face, but a strip of cloth blocked my vision. All I caught was the jade thumb ring on his left hand. 。A low voice echoed in my ear, "I'll be gentle."Those hands, as if imbued with magic, made me incredibly sensitive. It was difficult to utter a sound from within: "Mmm~ Hmm~~~"Something hard and hot kept pressing against my eyes, that feeling of emptiness drove me to want to grasp it desperately. It was difficult until that hardness suddenly entered me, the tearing pain jolted me back to consciousness. 。I took off my shoes and switched on the light in the room, confirming that it had just been a dream. Only then did I let out a sigh of relief. 。helplessly slumped against the wall, sitting on the ground. In truth, it wasn't a dream; it was something that actually happened to me when I was fourteen years old. 。I am Fan Yin, eighteen years old, at the age when a flower bud is just beginning to bloom. 。No one outside our family knows this, but whenever a new child is born into our family, every heart in the family is weighed down with sorrow. There is no joy at all. 。That has nothing to do with favoring sons over daughters, it's just because of a pact made between humans and ghosts many years ago. Generations of women in my family have been destined to marry 'humans'. 。So-called humans, are not human. They are said to be ghosts from the underworld. 。When I was little, my grandfather and I lived in a remote mountain village. The people there called it "the ferry village," I didn't know what special meaning it had, but I knew that everyone there believed in ghosts and gods. There were Taoist priests and monks nearby, and the atmosphere in the village was so strong that even when celebrating a happy occasion, they would invite Taoist priests or monks to perform rituals to make things lively. 。When I was very young, I saw my little aunt forced to wear a white wedding robe at night. 。Yes, it was white, and the white wedding gown I wore many years later was like a continuation of that. 。Because she married someone who is not an ordinary person, she doesn't wear red; she must wear white. 。The makeup on her face wasn't attractive, it was eerie and unsettling. Her face was so heavily powdered that it looked frighteningly pale. 。She was brought into the new house tied up. The new house wasn't like a new house at all; it was more like a mourning hall, with white cloth covering everything, even the "double happiness" character was cut out of white paper. 。That night, my little aunt never opened her eyes again. When they carried her out, her whole body was covered in bruises, especially that area... it was truly horrifying.Our family and the villagers kept to ourselves, just so no one outside our community would ever find out about this ancient tradition that had been passed down through generations. They say that if you offend 'them,' the consequences are unimaginable. 。Even after so many years, I still vaguely remember the wrinkles on my aunt's face when she was carried out of the room, and the tears that fell. That helpless look appeared again in my fourteenth year... Buried with my aunt were also the letters sent by someone before marriage. They say each letter was different because she wasn't marrying the same person. 。Whenever a member of our family is about to turn fourteen, letters will appear out of thin air. At that time, the whole family's nerves will be on edge, and they will begin to prepare for marriage. Because of this, my memory of the letters is vivid. 。My little aunt received a letter containing an emerald ring, which was so green. I received a white jade pendant with a dragon design on it. 。I distinctly remember that jade pendant wasn't taken out of that little hut. 。I am the only one who can still live after marrying a 'human'. In the past, our family members died within half a year after marrying a 'human', and many died on their wedding night. 。After that nightmarish evening, my parents brought me to this city to live, in order to escape the nightmare of our village past. 。It's been four years, and I thought I could forget, could live like a normal person, forgetting that I was ever married to 'human'... But recently, I keep dreaming about what happened that night, for half a month straight, I'm going crazy! Just now, everything in the dream felt so real, as if it were playing on repeat, the coldness, and the heart-wrenching pain...The sound of someone knocking on the door startled me, causing me to jump up. This sudden knock nearly gave me a fright. 。Mom's worried voice came, "Xiaoyin? Are you alright?" Hearing my mom's voice, I put my mind at ease and was about to open the door when I saw the jade pendant that I had left in the village cottage lying quietly on the floor outside! I gasped in fright, "Ah——!"Mom pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing my terrified expression, she looked down at the floor in confusion. 。When he saw the jade pendant, his face froze. 。After a while, he said, "This jade pendant... maybe I accidentally brought it here. It's fine, I'll take it, you have a good sleep." 。Don't believe the crazy old woman's words, there are no ghosts or spirits in this world. 。"The 'crazy old woman' my mother talked about was me. Back then, the people in the family were the ones who did it behind my mother's back. I went to university and don't believe in ghosts or spirits, but everyone in my family believes it." 。After receiving the letter, my elders at home tricked my mother away. My father knew about this, he probably understood the importance of this matter since he was a child, so he chose to compromise. 。Later, my mom frantically found me, pulling me out of that small hut covered in white cloth strips. At that time, I was dazed and shocked after the ordeal, acting like an idiot, completely incoherent. 。 |
