Chapter 167 Sending Invitations

After successfully putting makeup on the ghost bride, Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment when looking at her appearance at this moment.

It's not that he was fascinated, but he didn't know what to do next.

The puzzle of the red room has been completed, and the makeup on the ghost bride's face has been completed, but nothing has changed in the room.

"Hao~light a candle!"

Fortunately, at this time, the ghost bride spoke again.

Perhaps because of the makeup on her face, she was able to not only call out Zhang Hao's name, but also understand the words to express other things.

"Zhang Hao, here I come!"

When He Yuelian heard the ghost bride speak, she walked towards a red candlestick with two candles, one red and one white, not far away with surprise in her eyes.

Red and white candles were lit, and the room was lit up with two lights, a faint green and a pitch-black light.

As the special black light appeared in the room, many strange figures were reflected in the ghost mirror on the dressing table.

Each of these figures is a terrifying ghost. They are attracted by the black light and want to walk into the red room. However, due to the limitations of the ghost mirror, they cannot really walk out and can only crowd in front of the mirror.

Zhang Hao, who has the ability to see in the dark, can even see the hideous faces imprinted on the ghost mirror.

"Ma'am, what's the next step?"

Since it was the ghost bride's own puzzle, Zhang Hao felt that the ghost bride should know what to do next. He was too lazy to use precognition and asked directly.

"Hao, pick up the bride."

Hearing Zhang Hao's question, the ghost bride slowly stood up and spoke softly to Zhang Hao.

As if she was trying hard to improve her voice, or perhaps she was worried that Zhang Hao didn't understand what she was saying, the ghost bride stood up and looked at He Yuelian.

"Zhang Hao, the ghost bride told you to let her out of the door and then carry her to the sedan chair."

He Yuelian had a smile on her face and there was uncontrollable excitement in her eyes.

When she was in Tai O City before, she had fantasized about having an in-depth communication with Zhang Hao, but Zhang Hao never gave her the opportunity.

This time, Zhang Hao couldn't refuse me again, right? After all, I was also a member of the ghost bride.

"Uh, okay."

Zhang Hao nodded, walked out the door and raised his hand.

As Zhang Hao waved his hand, a red sedan was summoned out from the darkness.

In the red sedan chair, there were many figures wrapped in red cloth. They were carrying the sedan chair. Some of them were holding suona in their hands and beating gongs and drums as they walked towards the direction of the ancient house.

"Well, it should be almost done."

Zhang Hao took a rough look and saw that there were people beating drums and gongs, and also people playing suona.

These evil spirits were all the ones Zhang Hao encountered in the subsequent process of eating ghosts. However, they did not bring much improvement to Zhang Hao, so he had no idea of ​​developing their supernatural powers.

What I didn't expect was that I just took the initiative to show the bridal sedan, and these ghosts actually came over on their own.

But at this time Zhang Hao looked at himself again. He looked so pale. If he really wanted to have a wedding, wouldn’t it be a little inappropriate?

But if you think about it carefully, there seems to be no need to change deliberately.

Because according to Zhang Hao's previous idea, if he completed the wedding with the ghost bride, it was mainly to allow the supernatural powers of both parties to be transferred to each other.

If he deliberately changed his mourning clothes into groom's clothes, it would not be consistent with his idea of ​​integrating his own spiritual power with that of the bride.

While Zhang Hao was thinking, he walked back to the red room again.

Inside the room, the ghost bride sat in front of the dressing table, not knowing what she was doing.

When Zhang Hao got closer, he saw sheets of red letter paper in the ghost bride's hands.

"Hao~Invitation!"

The ghost bride noticed Zhang Hao coming in, picked up the red letter paper in her hand and said.

"The ghost bride said that these are the invitations she made. We can send these invitations to the ghost mirror, and the ghost mirror will help us send the invitations to the corresponding places in reality."

He Yuelian explained: "However, there are some places that are too scary, so we still need to go there in person."

"That's it, I know."

Zhang Hao nodded and looked at the invitation next to the ghost bride.

There are quite a lot of invitations, which are basically just a thin piece of red paper with no words written on it, just a piece of paper.

It’s such a thick stack, I don’t know how many pages there are in it.

The ghost bride now took the invitation and handed most of it to the ghost mirror.

When the red paper touched the ghost mirror, the ghost mirror rippled like a lake and absorbed the red paper into it.

As the red paper was handed into the ghost mirror, Zhang Hao saw the terrifying figures in the mirror scrambling to grab the red paper.

After these figures got the red papers, some took one or two, some took four or five, and then disappeared on the spot.

However, in the depths of the ghost mirror, after the figures who got the red papers disappeared, new figures would soon rush in front of the ghost mirror to compete for the red papers.

This red paper seemed to carry some extremely strange spiritual power, attracting these evil spirits to take the red paper away.

The ghost bride looked at the pile of red paper in the mirror which was getting thinner and thinner, and soon a new stack of red paper appeared in her hand and she handed it in.

As more and more evil spirits got the red paper, the human figures that kept appearing in the ghost mirror finally disappeared.

"Hao! Back!"

Seeing that no shadow of the evil ghost appeared in the ghost mirror anymore, the ghost bride ignored the small stack of red paper that fell in the mirror, but stood up and spoke to Zhang Hao.

When He Yuelian heard this, she looked at Zhang Hao and was about to express what the ghost bride meant.

However, Zhang Hao had already carried the ghost bride on his back.

Seeing this, He Yuelian shook her head helplessly.

Zhang Hao knew the Ghost Bride too well. There was no need for the Ghost Bride to worry that Zhang Hao would not be able to understand her thoughts.

However, He Yuelian was also a little curious at this time.

When the ghost bride was first seen, she seemed to have no intelligence and could only act on instinct.

When I saw the ghost bride for the second time, she already had her own way of acting and could make judgments.

This time when she met the ghost bride, she even learned to speak and had simple communication with Zhang Hao.

Could it be that the ghost bride could be resurrected? Or could she possess true wisdom like a human being and speak and communicate?

"He Yuelian, come out, we are leaving."

Zhang Hao carried the ghost bride out of the red room, looked at He Yuelian who was still standing there, and shouted to her.

"Okay, here I come."

When He Yuelian heard Zhang Hao calling her, she looked up with a look of surprise and hurriedly followed him.

The ghost bride didn't send her any news, so she thought that she wouldn't need to go with them this time. Unexpectedly, she could also join the wedding procession.

Zhang Hao carried the ghost bride to the bridal sedan and led her up.

"Hao, send out the invitation."

The ghost bride walked into the bridal sedan and said something to Zhang Hao. He Yuelian also followed and said hurriedly:

"Zhang Hao, the Ghost Bride asked you to go to various ghost places. Next, we are going to invite all the ghosts from these ghost places to the haunted house."

"Okay, I understand." Zhang Hao nodded.

He walked to the front of the team, thought for a moment, summoned out the ghost coffin and sat on it.

Since the ghost bride is sitting in the sedan chair, I might as well sit on the coffin.

As Zhang Hao sat on the coffin, the team heard the sounds of gongs and drums, as well as suona. Zhang Hao inexplicably felt that his supernatural powers were being enhanced at this time.

"Is this a variation of a puzzle that belongs to some kind of ritual series?"

Zhang Hao felt the changes in himself and recalled the questions he had thought about before.

Why did the Republic of China like to express various supernatural objects using related puzzles?

And now, Zhang Hao understood that this should be some kind of special puzzle concept.

This puzzle concept is not a puzzle in the traditional sense, where two ghosts complete each other, but a puzzle in the idealistic sense.

Just like hands and feet, they are not directly related to the puzzle, but in terms of the concept of the body, they are puzzle pieces.

For example, doors and windows. From a direct relationship point of view, these two ghosts have no connection with each other.

But when the door is used as the main concept, these two ghosts can be used as puzzle pieces to each other.

Even in this puzzle relationship, there is no ghost as the main body that can directly connect them.

In fact, when Zhang Hao and the ghost bride just left the bus, Zhang Hao also made the Red and White Evils, although it was a bit simple.

But at that time, it did bring some improvement to Zhang Hao and the Ghost Bride.

This should also be a puzzle relationship in the conceptual sense, between Zhang Hao and the ghost bride, because they are two individuals.

Even between ghost slaves and ghost masters, their spiritual powers are like a real puzzle, improving each other, and at most they can only borrow part of each other's spiritual power.

But after Zhang Hao built the bridal sedan and the coffin, even though they were not holding hands together, in the concept of red and white conflicting evil spirits, they had already become the two protagonists of the red and white events respectively.

simply put.

Puzzle piece one is the ghost bride, and puzzle piece two is Zhang Hao.

And in this situation, one person sat on the sedan chair and the other sat on the coffin.

A psychological puzzle will arise between Zhang Hao and the ghost bride, with red and white colliding with each other.

The idealistic puzzle does not exist in reality, but it will complete Zhang Hao and the ghost bride, two ghosts who cannot complete each other, in an idealistic way, thereby enhancing the supernatural power above.

This situation is just like the situation where those evil ghosts of the hand and foot type will instinctively live in human corpses.

Humans are unable to resist even the weakest supernatural powers, so they have basically no chance of survival against evil spirits.

But as a ghost with a broken hand or foot, if it has a human corpse, it will think it has a body.

This is a misjudgment in the idealistic concept. The evil ghost mistakenly believes that he has a complete body, which increases the degree of horror of the evil ghost.

If a broken leg and a broken hand were on a person at the same time, if he was a ghost rider, he might not be able to bear it.

But if it is a corpse, this hand and this foot have formed a puzzle, and the supernatural powers between them have been completed.

However, whether it is humans or these ordinary furniture, they are just puzzles in idealistic concepts after all. For evil spirits, they are at most an improvement in misjudgment.

Once they really encounter puzzles in the form of evil spirits, these evil spirits will naturally choose to abandon these idealistic puzzles and give priority to completing the real puzzles.

This is the situation with Zhang Hao and the ghost bride now.

Weddings and funerals cannot be related in themselves.

But because both parties have the basis of ghosts looking for relatives, and Zhang Hao's original identity was the ghost slave of the ghost bride.

Now that the terror levels of both sides have been added up, they can rely on the basic connection and combine it with the idealistic puzzle to complement each other's supernatural powers.

It’s just an idealistic puzzle, after all, so the improvement is not that great.

"Perhaps we still need to wait until the wedding is actually completed before we can complement each other even more."

Zhang Hao sat on the ghost coffin, looking at the highway where the bus was running, and couldn't help thinking in his heart.

"Tap Tap!"

Just as Zhang Hao was thinking, footsteps were heard behind him.

Zhang Hao turned his head and saw that it was He Yuelian who had stepped down from the sedan chair at some point and was running towards him quickly.

"What happened?" Zhang Hao asked.

"It's okay." He Yuelian noticed Zhang Hao's gaze and shook her head.

"It's just that the ghost bride asked me to come to the front to accompany you."

He Yuelian walked to the side of the coffin, turned over and jumped, sitting on the coffin board behind Zhang Hao.

"Are you still worried that I'm bored?" Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel helpless.

I am a ghost. Even though I have eaten too many evil spirits, I can now have emotions that are no different from those of a living person.

But the emotion of boredom never appears in my heart.

"Of course not, the ghost bride just wants to stay with you." He Yuelian also knew Zhang Hao's situation and shook her head.

"It's just that the ghost bride has to sit in the sedan chair now and can't come out, so I have to come over."

"Okay." Zhang Hao didn't refuse after hearing that.

For He Yuelian, she herself is an individual.

But to the ghost bride, He Yuelian is just a part of her.

This kind of relationship depends on how you look at it, if you look at it from a human perspective.

It is difficult to accept that one's alter ego considers itself an independent individual.

But from the ghost's perspective, the clone is an independent individual, but it is also a part of oneself, and there is no conflict.

After all, the perspectives of evil spirits are all kinds of strange.

Including Zhang Hao himself, his perspective, himself, his clone, and those black and white photos can all be regarded as his own eyes.

Even other people's memories of him are from his perspective.

"Hehe!" Hearing that Zhang Hao did not refuse, He Yuelian smiled foolishly.

But she didn't rush to speak, but got down to business first.

A stack of red paper appeared in He Yuelian's hand, and she looked around casually.

When the team came to some strange places that looked like there might be evil spirits, He Yuelian would take out red paper and start to scatter it around at random.

The red paper was scattered by He Yuelian and flew in all directions with the wind.

In the dark and seemingly deserted wilderness, the red papers fluttered in the air and suddenly seemed to be picked up by someone and stopped in mid-air.

After a while, several figures walked out from the barren mountain, holding red paper in their hands and following the back of the marriage procession.
