Welcoming the bride

Author: Peace Shark

Deep mountains and forests.

The bright moonlight fell on a boulder covered with moss.

In the pit at the top, small patches of moss suddenly protrude.

First, two nodular tentacles poked out, and then the square-shaped head of the grasshopper broke through the moss. The insect's body lay low, its two compound eyes flashed in the moonlight, its wings trembled, and it emitted a rhythmic trembling sound.

It seemed like it was thinking about where to go for food tonight and didn't move.

This undoubtedly attracted the attention of predators in the dark.

The wind suddenly rose, and a black shadow suddenly flew from a high place in the sky. It was an extremely bloated bird.

Its wings were stretched out, its sharp claws stretched out, and it assumed a predatory posture.

But the moment the bird's body entered the moonlight, its sharp claws suddenly cracked, and each knuckle turned into a long and narrow tentacle. The bird's abdomen also opened its terrifying mouthparts, trying to kill the insect.

Swallow it in one gulp.

At this moment, the boulder at the bottom of the insect trembled, and several blue-gray tentacles rushed out from under the moss, entangled the bird, and dragged it into the boulder.

The screams lasted only a few seconds before calming down again.

The forest returned to its quiet and harmonious appearance.

Until the high-pitched suona was heard in the distance, the sound of gongs and drums kept playing, and the bright red light was particularly eye-catching among the blue-gray forest.

Several blood-stained bird feathers were spit out.

The crooked pupils on the side of the boulder slowly closed. It was lucky tonight, and another prey came to its door.

Bang!

The arm covered with bristles went straight through the boulder. The stone that was originally intended to wait and wait struggled and bloomed like a flower. Dozens of tentacles full of spikes were entangled in the arm, trying to break free from its shackles.

No matter how hard the boulder tried, the sharp claws with distinct joints would grab its core and lift it up.

A stone weighing several tons was grabbed by an arm and placed above the ferocious face of a wild boar. The pig's snout was raised, and two long and narrow fangs were wrapped around the tentacles of the stone in a desperate struggle. The sharp claws tightened, and blood mixed with broken pieces.

All the meat was stuffed down the wild boar's throat.

"Guhahaha~ It's strong enough and delicious enough. Kids, take a sip each!"

The flesh and blood residue spurted out from its mouth. The wild boar demon, as fat as a hill, laughed wildly. With a twist and pull of its arms, it easily tore the boulder into pieces of flesh and blood. It didn't care how the external rocks rattled and just splashed backwards.

Dozens of pairs of scarlet beast eyes suddenly lit up under the night sky, swallowing flesh and blood, screaming and roaring incessantly.

Among the many rough monsters, there was a bright red light emanating.

It was a particularly exquisite red sedan chair.

It is about three meters high and nearly five meters long and wide. It is said to be a sedan, but more like a small house.

The outer edge of the vermilion roof hangs with festive flowers, and various colorful paintings are carved on the four sides of the sedan and on the grid-shaped wooden poles in the middle.

The demon became ferocious after devouring flesh and blood, but it did not dare to get close to the sedan chair. It did not even dare to let even a drop of dirty mud fall on it. Even if it was placed on the ground, it had to be cushioned by stones.

"Not far ahead is the Zhusi Cave. The little ones, after quenching their thirst, start playing hard. The kings are waiting for their husbands to come to the door and accomplish a good thing. If anyone loses his temper at this time, don't blame me, old pig.

No mercy!"

Seeing that it was almost time to rest, the wild boar demon shook off the dregs on his body, grabbed the half-human-sized suona from his waist, put it in his mouth and blew it.

The high-pitched sound of the suona once again startled the birds all over the mountain, and the demons behind followed closely behind, knocking and knocking.

The four jackal demons hunched over, picked up the sedan chair, and continued to move forward with brisk steps.

The winding mountain roads are not enough of a hindrance to these monsters.

However, the occasional bumps still woke up the people inside the sedan.

With the pain in his head, Yan Jing slowly opened his eyes.

The constantly shaking and bumpy environment made him even more dizzy as he was already feeling uncomfortable, and he managed to regain consciousness only with his super physical strength.

What comes into view are several pairs of big red candles, and the bright yellow candlelight reflects the vermilion "wall".

There are several crouched figures in the corner.

He breathed a sigh of relief and his vision returned to normal. Yan Jing observed his surroundings calmly, frowning.

Only then did he notice that he seemed to be inside a huge sedan chair, and he was still with six men in wedding clothes with frightened faces, and he himself was wearing similar clothes.

Mass wedding?

Having experienced so many otherworldly events, this is the first time that we are ready to get married right away.

Not to mention that judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that the bride will still be kidnapped.

Looking around, Yan Jing quickly noticed the curtain on the left side of the sedan that was shaking with the breeze outside. Hearing the strange roars mixed with the beating of gongs and drums, he quickly realized that the person carrying the sedan outside was probably not a human being at all.

I wanted to lean over and take a look, but the seat over there was occupied by a young man with a beautiful face.

Yan Jing was about to speak, but his expression was startled. He looked around again, his face gradually becoming ugly.

Why doesn’t the torch prompt appear?

In the past, as soon as the Ember Apostles arrived in another world, the torch would give corresponding prompts, allowing the Ember Apostles to know the general status of the other world and the main mission of the trip at the first time.

But now Yan Jing has woken up, but there are no torch reminders in the surrounding environment.

My mind couldn't help but recall what happened during the descent.

This trip to another world was not smooth. Yan Jing was unable to complete his descent for a long time after leaving the Torch Space. He only wandered in the dark space, relying on the leaves of the Source Tree to survive.

This is also the reason why Yan Jing felt extremely uncomfortable after waking up.

Fortunately, his body has already completed an evolution, otherwise just staying in the space channel for a long time would be enough to kill him!

Even so, the current situation is giving Yan Jing quite a headache.

Without the main mission, he doesn't know how to act, and he doesn't even have a clear goal.

Not to mention that Yan Jing came here with the request to solve the moon crisis. He couldn't just wander around in this other world for a few days and then return.

Fortunately, the strength of Torch is worthy of trust.

While Yan Jing was hesitating, relevant prompt information finally appeared in his mind.

"The arrival of the Ember Apostles in another world has been detected."

"The single-player otherworldly event [Journey to the West] has been started."

"The main mission requirements are as follows: Awaken the Candle Dragon!"

Different from the past, the information given by the torch this time was unprecedentedly brief. There was no introduction to the other world and Yan Jing's personal information. It only provided the mission objectives, and it still appeared in Yan Jing's mind instead of appearing in reality.

Obviously, the Torch wants to hide its existence as much as possible.

This made Yan Jing immediately think of the additional information collected while still in the yacht. The origin of this world has been contaminated, even the elemental spiritual energy is no exception, which is enough to prove that high-level evil spirits are likely to exist in this world.

The Torch relied on the world's original energy to fight against high-level evil spirits in the Chinese world, but I'm afraid it would be difficult to do so in this world.

In other words, once the torch is discovered, it is very likely to be surrounded and suppressed by high-level evil spirits.

Thinking of this, Yan Jing could not help but have a new understanding of the dangers of this world.

He cast his eyes on the handsome young man by the window.

The Torch does not give clues about world information or how to carry out the main mission, so you have to find it yourself.

Yan Jing was able to get to where he is today not because of Torch's help.

Besides, since Torch arranged for him to appear in this sedan chair and not somewhere else, there must be some purpose. What Yan Jing has to do is to use the existing conditions to discover more information.

The first thing to do is to understand the environment you are in.

"This, this brother, wake up."

Moving to the side, Yan Jing reached out and patted the handsome young man on the shoulder. The latter seemed to be frightened and trembled slightly. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Yan Jing. His lips wriggled twice and he could not speak.

Come.

Only then did Yan Jing notice that there was something wrong with the young man's eyes. The whites of his eyes took up most of the area, and the black pupils were reduced to only one-tenth of those of ordinary people. They looked gray, as if his eyesight was not very good.

"Where are we?"

Seeing that the young man didn't speak for a long time, Yan Jing couldn't help but ask.

"I, I don't know that the village regards me as a sacrifice to be given to the king as a husband."

"They too?"

Yan Jing glanced at the other people in the sedan chair. Because of the conversation between the two, their eyes also turned to him.

Everyone's eyes were gray and their faces looked different, but they were all handsome young men.

He looked at his clothes again.

Then the king wants to marry seven people as husbands. Is he in good health?

"Do you know who the king you are talking about is?"

"I don't know if they say it's Immortal Zhu Si. I've never seen him."

Realizing that he was heading somewhere, Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief. Rather than wandering around aimlessly, he at least had a destination. The Immortal Zhu Si mentioned by the young man seemed to be a local big shot.

Maybe you will know some information about Zhulong.

Yan Jing was about to ask further when he heard the sound of gongs and drums outside suddenly increased to a higher level, and there was still some noise in the distance.

It seems that we are almost reaching our destination.

Yan Jing turned sideways and raised his hand to lift the curtain on one side of the sedan, wanting to see what was going on outside.

As far as the eye can see, there is a bloated wild boar, wearing a rough armor, holding a brass suona high, shaking its head and blowing as it walks, trampling down trees and rocks along the way, and it is filled with a ferocious evil spirit!

There were also a group of strange monsters accompanying him, matching the dark environment outside the sedan.

Yan Jing still didn't understand what it was that the Immortal Zhu Si was going to "marry" them.

The sedan bumped forward for some distance, and Yan Jing clearly felt that the terrain was rising, so that the entire sedan tilted a little.

At the same time, the density of plants outside began to decrease.

Instead, there were a lot of rugged rocks. It seemed that the bride-to-be team had arrived at a mountainous area.

What made Yan Jing even more concerned was that white net-like objects began to appear in various places in the mountains, and a large number of bones of vicious beasts were piled up in them.
