227: Hijacking a marriage, not marriage

A wedding procession? Where did a wedding procession come from?

Right! I remember now, the one from Black Wind Mountain seemed to have said that today he would come to marry the Madam Boss of Shuiyue Inn!

So it's to marry the Madam Boss of Shuiyue.

Tsk tsk tsk, I heard that under that red veil is an absolute beauty, what a waste.

The ghosts and monsters felt it wasn't worth it for the Red-Clothed Woman, but constrained by the Vajra Corpse's power, they didn't dare to act rashly, only speaking a few words to vent their frustration.

They knew their limits.

They were very clear that as long as the Vajra Corpse willed it, he could effortlessly annihilate all the ghosts and monsters present in an instant!

Just like Qin Hongyue did to the One-Eyed Monsters.

Saying a few words to satisfy themselves was enough, there was no need to truly get involved, as it wouldn't be worth it if they lost their lives.

...

Chen Ming and the other two had already met the wedding procession head-on.

They looked somewhat human, but their makeup was truly hellish.

Their small faces were painted deathly pale, a thick layer, and two neat red dots were applied to their cheeks, creating an indescribably eerie style.

Upon further thought, it seemed fine for the Ghost Realm to be a bit hellish.

The wedding procession was quite large; Chen Ming saw at least forty to fifty people at a glance.

The people in front were responsible for beating gongs and drums, creating a lively atmosphere, followed by an eight-bearer sedan chair, and behind that, box after box of betrothal gifts.

Despite the eight-bearer sedan chair and such generous betrothal gifts, not a hint of joy could be seen on the Red-Clothed Woman.

On the contrary, Chen Ming noticed her tightly clenched fists.

"Lower the sedan chair!" Standing beside the sedan chair, a figure with white hair, seemingly a Matchmaker or similar role, shouted loudly.

Bang!

The wedding sedan chair landed heavily.

The Matchmaker smiled, her face full of wrinkles, reached out and lifted the curtain, saying to the Red-Clothed Woman, "Madam, please enter the sedan chair."

Seeing the Red-Clothed Woman unmoved, the Matchmaker's raised lips dropped slightly, she forced a smile and repeated, "Madam, please enter the sedan chair!"

Her tone became much more serious, mixed with a somewhat commanding tone.

"Excuse me, we won't be getting married." Since Chen Ming had accepted the mission, there was no reason for him to stand by, so he stepped forward and said.

"Who are you? How dare you obstruct us from escorting Madam up the mountain? If you don't want to die, leave quickly!" The Matchmaker's patience was completely exhausted by Chen Ming; her expression became increasingly fierce, looking as if she wanted to eat him.

"Excuse me, I'm hijacking this wedding today!" Chen Ming casually found an excuse.

"..." The Red-Clothed Woman's tightly clenched slender jade fingers relaxed.

Beneath the veil, her expression subtly changed.

"You're courting death!" The Matchmaker signaled to the person in front of her.

"Whoosh..." After receiving the command, that person raised the suona in his hand, took a deep breath, covered it with his mouth, and started to blow!

The sound waves produced were like a tide, wave after wave crashing towards Chen Ming's side.

They distorted the visible range and scene, turning it into a sight only seen under the scorching summer sun.

These sound waves were extremely aggressive; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them demonic sounds piercing the mind.

Qin Hongyue reacted quickly, effortlessly forming a high wall of spiritual energy in front of Chen Ming.

She easily blocked wave after wave of sound waves for him, without any pressure.

If an ordinary person had taken this blow head-on, they would most likely have died from bleeding from all seven orifices!

"Whoosh..."

Having used up his breath, the little ghost took another deep breath.

His abdomen and chest puffed out, preparing to continue blowing.

It was clear that he was very anxious because the suona had not had any effect on Chen Ming, Qin Hongyue, and the others.

Regarding this, it was not difficult to tell from the rhythm of his playing.

Occasionally, one could even hear instances of him pressing the wrong finger holes.

However, even though the suona little ghost used all his might, it was still ineffective.

When he wanted to repeat his trick, opening his mouth to inhale.

Chen Ming seized the opportunity, used Mind Control to snatch the suona, and then summoned a gust of strong wind to blow it.

Endless strong wind squeezed into the air hole, producing an astonishing sound!

The energy contained within the sound forced the entire wedding procession, as well as the heavy wedding sedan chair that had landed on the ground, back several meters, and it was still ongoing.

Seeing this, the little ghosts beating gongs and drums immediately started banging away, hoping to use sound to counteract the suona sound produced by Chen Ming.

Bang!!

Boom!!

The two waves of sound continuously collided in the air, and the residual power spread outwards through the compression.

Houses were shaken and cracked, large pieces of roof tiles peeled off, falling to the ground and shattering...

"Isn't that your spiritual artifact? What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get it back!" The Matchmaker urged.

"No! I can't control it!" The little ghost tried several times, all ending in failure.

"Useless thing!" The Matchmaker cursed loudly, and immediately, her body suddenly changed.

Sharp, spear-like tentacles broke through her flesh from behind and extended out, a total of eight.

Her head turned into a spider's face, and her body rapidly filled out, no, it should be described as corpulent, growing coarse hairs all over.

Her clothes were torn, and she completely transformed into a giant spider monster.

Her size expanded five or six times!

The wedding sedan chair that required eight people to lift now looked much smaller compared to her.

"Roar!!"

The spider monster opened its large, bloody mouth filled with sharp fangs and teeth, roared loudly, and spat out a lot of corrosive saliva.

Honestly, in Chen Ming's eyes, this form was actually more pleasing to the eye.

Is that it?

No, it's still early!

Next, one after another, everyone in the wedding procession, just like the Matchmaker, transformed and mutated into spider monsters.

In terms of size, they couldn't compare with the Matchmaker.

Even the one closest to her was a third smaller.

Dozens of mutated spider monsters filled the entire street, and torn pieces of clothing were blown everywhere by the wind.

This scene and the noise attracted many ghosts and people inside the buildings to watch.

"What happened? So many spiders! So big!"

"It seems someone is hijacking the wedding, the wedding procession became unhappy, and as a result, both sides fell out."

"They're getting married, what's there to be unhappy about?" asked with a serious face.

"Listen carefully, it's 'jie hun' (hijack wedding), not 'jie hun' (get married), the 'jie' that means 'rob'!" His companion corrected him with a speechless expression.

"Those... if I'm not mistaken, they're from Black Wind Mountain, right?"

"Black Wind Mountain! Holy crap! These guys are really bold, they even dare to hijack someone the Black Wind Mountain master has set his eyes on!"

They concluded that Chen Ming, Qin Hongyue, and the others wouldn't have a good outcome.

Today, they were definitely going to die!

Especially upon noticing that the spiders had a clear division of labor, some jumped onto the eaves, some stayed behind, and some jumped down behind Chen Ming, surrounding the three tightly from all directions.

In terms of coordination, there was nothing to say.

Clatter clatter clatter! Clatter clatter clatter! Clatter clatter clatter...

The impact sound made by metal-clad iron legs when touching the bluestone brick ground could provide a considerable psychological deterrence to opponents and prey.

Facing the mutated spiders rapidly rushing and leaping down from all directions, Chen Ming remained completely calm and took out the Black Hole Gun.

He had always wanted to find an opportunity to try out this strange, unconventional, and futuristic black technology weapon.
