Under the dim red light, the statue’s face was clearly visible, and upon closer inspection, it bore a resemblance to Qu Hongling, yet the statue’s eyes exuded an indescribable sinister charm.
"Bless , Red Demon, for finding such a handso ideal groom... I can finally be free!"
The old woman’s face twisted with excitent as she picked up the garnt she had been sewing with her half-decayed hand.
No, it wasn’t a garnt.
It was clearly a skin!
The skin still had so hair on it, emitting a pungent, fishy odor.
The old woman draped the skin over herself.
In an instant, she transford into a charming and alluring woman.
The woman had a graceful figure and a beautiful face, but her eyes were filled with endless greed and eeriness, fixed intently on Jiang Shouzhong, as if he were a rare treasure within her grasp.
"Bridegroom, bridegroom..."
Inside the room, a little girl suddenly clapped her hands and let out a series of giggles.
While laughing, she skipped rrily around Jiang Shouzhong, her red embroidered shoes making rhythmic sounds on the ground, da da da da.
The old woman, now transford into a charming lady, licked the corner of her mouth with her tongue. Her previously hoarse and aged voice had turned incredibly seductive and captivating, as if it could enchant one’s soul, and she coyly said:
"Young gentleman, tonight you should obediently accompany and enter the bridal chamber. I will definitely let you feel ecstasy and experience an unprecedented thrill."
As she spoke, with a gentle flick of her wrist, she instantly drew Jiang Shouzhong into her palm.
Yet before she could reveal a triumphant smile, her expression suddenly changed, and she stared intently at the "man" in her hand.
She was shocked to find that the man in her hand was as motionless as a statue, lifeless, with none of the vitality a normal person should have.
Before she could figure out why, the "man" suddenly turned into a puppet.
"You have to admit, that Avatar Puppet Magic Artifact is quite useful."
Outside the door, Jiang Shouzhong’s voice, laced with a bit of mockery, was heard.
Jiang Shouzhong stood leisurely at the doorway, arms crossed, a smile on his face, looking teasingly at the woman and the little girl inside.
"Bridegroom... bridegroom..."
The little girl seed oblivious to the commotion outside and continued to skip around the puppet on the floor.
The woman’s eyes blazed with anger.
She gritted her teeth and shouted angrily at Jiang Shouzhong outside the door: "You co in here!"
"Why don’t you co out if you dare?"
Jiang Shouzhong laughed even more happily, deliberately raising his eyebrows at the woman,
Seeing her stand motionless inside the room, Jiang Shouzhong elongated his voice: "Oh, I get it."
He picked up the red wedding character seal he had previously removed from the door, his eyes scanning the eerily atmospheric houses around him, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and he said:
"If I’m not mistaken, the bride must stay in the boudoir, right? And if no groom cos to the bridal chamber, you’ll be trapped here forever, never able to leave."
"Bridal chamber... bridal chamber..."
The little girl danced more joyfully around the puppet on the ground, changing her chant.
Slowly, the sounds from other houses seed awakened by her voice, and the girl’s innocent yet eerie voice echoed across them all.
"Bridal chamber..."
"Bridal chamber..."
More and more voices grew dense, seemingly enveloping the entire island in the chilling chant of "bridal chamber."
