All of this, I only found out much later. I didn't understand why she swallowed the bitter fruit alone, causing me to fall into endless pain in the days to come.
She was preparing to marry my brother and become my sister-in-law. Countless times, I wanted to take her out of this abyss, but she chose to go back again and again. At first, I didn't understand.
But on the night before she was going to marry my brother, Uncle Li passed away. It happened suddenly, but I knew it must have been the doing of my brother and my mother. The hole in my chest was the best proof.
That's when I realized she was much smarter than she appeared. She had known all of this would happen, so on our wedding night, she left me forever in a decisive way, sacrificing herself and offering her blood to the hundred ghosts beneath this land, cursing the murderer to have an unhappy death.
But foolish girl, why didn't you tell me anything? Otherwise, you would have known earlier that due to the protection of the jade lock, this simple curse would have had no effect at all. It seems like your sacrifice was nothing but a joke.
But I won't let them go. Countless nights, I wanted to burn this sinful place with a big fire, but I restrained myself and told myself that it wasn't the right time yet.
Until today, the time has finally come.
"You should have understood earlier," I sighed, "from the moment Zhang Lao Si came to seek revenge on me."
Yu Meng's face suddenly changed, her mouth opened wide, and she asked, "Did you also kill Zhang Lao Si?"
"I didn't expect him to still want to seek revenge on me. I can't imagine what it feels like to be beaten to the point of being scattered by his own biological father."
I paused and continued, "However, his father is no good either. They are also involved in Ah Yu's murder."
My gaze gradually turned cold as I said, "I pushed him down the mountain, making it look like he fell to his death by himself. But it turns out his father wanted to give him a ghost marriage. That's just perfect. So, I came up with a plan, and they are reaping what they sowed!"
I stopped narrating, turned to look at Yu Meng, and said slowly, "However, I originally thought your sister was the pure Yin body I was looking for, but I didn't expect it to be you, the twin sister. Fortunately, fate brought you to me."
Yu Meng trembled all over, her eyes filled with despair as she looked at me and said, "What... What do you want to do? I'm not that pure Yin body you mentioned!"
Her explanation sounded feeble, and I didn't want to answer her. I simply said, "Don't worry, you won't die. You will just... live in this world in a different way."
After saying that, I took out a bell and shook it. I heard a rustling sound coming from the depths of the basement.
Within a few seconds, a woman in a wedding dress quickly appeared in front of me. Her face was pale, her eyes completely black, and her face was covered in blue and purple lines, with many corpse spots scattered around.
But I had never felt that she was as beautiful as she was at this moment. Soon, I would be able to see her in a state of incomparable vitality.
"Yu Meng, I wonder if anyone has ever told you that a Four Pillars pure Yin body is an excellent vessel for carrying souls?" I asked with a smile playing on my lips.
"Ah Yu, go," I whispered to the "bride" beside me.
Ah Yu, this time, we can be together forever.
