Chapter 72
Maybe… the transformation of the environment was not that drastic, or maybe the last thing people lost was their hearing.
In short, before entering the side mission, Yu Qing still heard the host on the stage shouting, “Now, let us invite the latest bride to designate an heir to inherit all the incense in the future!”
Then came the roar of screams and applause.
“Come on, come on, drink! Drink!”
“Bride, why weren’t you happy now that you were married? Come over quickly and hold your man’s hand~”
[The hidden side mission had been successfully launched, host Yu Qing. I wished you a happy game!]
Suddenly, Yu Qing was pushed by someone unknown, and he staggered two steps, bang!
He placed his hands on a huge black coffin.
The sleeves were red; no! He was wearing an expensive wedding dress, and the phoenix crown and hairpins felt like a heavy weight. His head was forced to sink, making it difficult to even raise it.
Then, he saw the hall covered with red silk, his mother-in-law sitting in front of him, and the guest changing glasses.
This was… his wedding hall?!
His fingertips trembled, and a mechanical system broadcast flashed in Yu Qing’s mind, [Side mission – Escape from the Wedding Hall, plot exploration degree 18%!]
In other words, after completing the side mission, he could explore 18% of the secrets there.
Thinking of this, Yu Qing stood up straight again and looked at the live broadcast room where the audience danced wildly.
[Ah ah ah ah! Damn, damn, damn! I had never seen this side mission before, so I was curious about what would happen.]
[Level 6 dungeon, open hidden side missions alone, tsk tsk, the host was out of luck; maybe it wasn’t good.]
[What are you talking about? My wife would win!]
[Win? Hahahahahaha what win?! The idiot fans above, why don’t you take a look at the rules of this wedding hall before making an opinion?]
At the same time, his eyes quickly passed through the live broadcast room, and Yu Qing saw the rules carved on the wooden pillars all over the room——
[Rule 1, Your husband is a deity; whatever your husband says will be whatever you say. Always listen to your husband.]
[Rule 2, Mother-in-law is an absolutely kind person. You should always listen to your mother-in-law, treat her like your biological mother, and dedicate the most valuable things in your body to your mother-in-law.]
[Rule 3, There are three types of unfilial piety. The greatest is not having an offspring. You should be pregnant with a boy as soon as you entered the house. Otherwise, you should go to the temple to repent every day.]
[Rule 4, Everything the guests say is for your own good, and you have to listen to it.]
[Rule five, rule six, rule seven… Rule one hundred and fifty-three… Rule seven hundred and eighty-one…]
Before he could read the densely packed rules, Yu Qing couldn’t help but hold his heart. He felt sick and heavy.
Why did the newlywed have to abide by all the rules, not to mention… the husband was just a black coffin?
Absolutely ridiculous!
Hey! Bride, what are you doing standing still?” Just as he was thinking, suddenly, his shoulder was pushed again by the wedding chaperon beside him.
It was obviously a happy event, but she wore a white dress. The style of the white dress was very familiar. His pupils flickered, and Yu Qing asked, “Were you… from the temple?”
“Hey, that’s right! The marriages here are all hosted by the temple. This kid has good eyesight. If he gets married, he will definitely have a son!”
As she spoke, the wedding chaperon’s eyebrows widened, and she couldn’t help but pat the young man on the shoulder, “Quick, give your gold necklace to your mother-in-law. If you give this away, it will be considered a gift~”
As soon as she finished speaking, the entire wedding hall began to cheer. Lowering his eyes, Yu Qing glanced at the necklace around his neck.
Made of pure gold, it was very hard and glistened under the candlelight, giving it a sense of elegance that did not belong to this village.
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
The hidden cry came to his ears again, and then, Yu Qing’s heart paused, and a sudden pain arose in vain!
It felt like a blunt instrument with a hook sinking into the heart, rolling and stirring, causing the flesh to roll, and he couldn’t help but shed tears!
Uncomfortable, so uncomfortable…
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
In the wedding hall, the crying became more urgent, and there seemed to be more people. There was one person crying.
Immediately afterward, all kinds of crazy tearing sensations spread throughout his body, threatening to tear him into pieces if he dared.
Yu Qing knew that he was probably being targeted by some strange creature again, but the second rule clearly stated, [You must give the most valuable thing on your body to your mother-in-law.] If he didn’t give it, he would violate the rules.
And die!
[Ding dong ding dong ding dong——]
Hidden side missions were rare. The audience saw this and rushed into the live broadcast room like crazy.
Some fans of Tong Lei rushed to the front and laughed, [Hey, is this host stupid? If you follow the procedure, nothing will happen. If it were our Lei’er here, he would definitely pull off the necklace and give it away!]
[It’s not a difficult situation; I really don’t know what you like about him?]
[Ah (yawn), I’m a little bored. I want to see Tong Lei enter the side mission. It must be more interesting than this delicate boy.]
The comment was scattered, and the audience seemed not to hear the hidden cries. Except for Tong Lei’s fans, basically no one continued to speak.
“Hahahaha, the bride is offering a treasure~”
In the dungeon, the roar of laughter covered up the hidden sobs. Just like the owner of the cry, Yu Qing was miserable and helpless.
Finally, amid the urging, the young man took off his necklace and slowly took steps.
He walked step by step to the high hall and approached the skinny old lady. Seeing the old lady’s eyes shining when looking at the gold, the young man curved his lips and deliberately waved the gold in front of her, arousing the old woman’s desire that slowly came around behind her.
His eyes darkened, and he was very well-behaved, “Mother, this necklace was originally worn by me. It may hurt a little when you wear it. Please bear with it until you wear it properly.”
After the words fell, the old woman just nodded, not caring about whether it hurt or not. The next moment, whoosh!
Yu Qing lowered his hands, tightened the chain tightly, and grabbed the old woman’s throat like crazy, strangling her until there was blood! He broke her throat!
“Hmm… um…”
After a while, the greedy smile on the old woman’s face solidified, and her originally grey complexion gradually turned pale.
“Hehe… hehe…”
Her life was threatened, and an old sob came out of her throat, but… the young man was still smiling.
He was born simple. His face was reddened due to the heavy phoenix crown, and the tears that squeezed out of the corners of his eyes due to discomfort had not yet dispersed. The beads on his head shook slightly, his face full of pear blossoms, and his whole being exuded a sense of fragility and sacredness.
“Mom, I still can’t put on the necklace; what should I do?”
“Uh-huh…”
“How about you? Can you hold on a little longer?”
No! Can’t hold on! If she persisted, she would die!
The old woman kept struggling, but her strength was very small. Her throat was strangled, and she couldn’t make a sound. Then, she saw Yu Qing lowering his head, his face approaching her faintly.
She subconsciously felt fear and realized that a human being was terrifying!
She wanted to run away and curse, but she could only move her lips in vain. But after a while, she actually saw the young man nodding his head a few times and saying “um” slightly, as if… listening to her?
Say what?
She had become like this; what else could she say?!
But, the next moment, the old woman got the answer.
With infinite horror in her eyes, she saw Yu Qing raise his eyes again and say, “Everyone, my mother said that her black coffin son is getting married today. She is happy and doesn’t want the necklace. She asks the uncles to burn her up and sprinkle the ashes on the coffin to accompany her son~”
