Amidst the resounding sounds of drums echoing across the mountains, I sat in the sedan chair, returning to the grand estate of the Li Family.
Everything was exactly as I had seen it last night.
Only now, the bride was me!
As I witnessed Wang Zhan being carried out beneath my red veil, my heart felt no tremor.
In the shadow of the veil, I bowed my head alongside Wang Zhan.
Through the edge of the veil, I caught a glimpse of Wang Zhan's face.
His complexion was pale, his eyes tightly shut, devoid of the terror from last night.
I understood,
All struggles and cries were in vain!
The final outcome had already been determined!
As a true bride, I completed all the rituals.
After paying homage to heaven and earth, I was placed into the coffin.
Beside me lay Wang Zhan's corpse.
The joyous sounds outside transformed into sorrowful wails.
The coffin trembled gently before being lifted off the ground.
I was about to be buried on the hillside behind the Li Family Dam.
The torment of these days had left me utterly exhausted.
Now, lying next to a corpse, I no longer felt fear.
Because I knew it would soon come to an end!
I would rest here forever!
In fact, I even felt a hint of drowsiness!
After experiencing a violent jolt, I heard a rustling sound.
I knew,
The coffin had already been buried!
They are burying me!
At this moment, I am buried on the hillside behind the Li Family Dam.
In the coffin, I lie side by side with Wang Zhan's corpse.
I hear the sound of the last handful of dirt being thrown in.
I am finally saying goodbye to this world.
In my final moments, I think of the girl from last night.
How desperate she must have been!
Tied to a wooden chair, powerless to change her fate.
She could only watch with tearful eyes as she was sent into the bridal chamber, marrying a corpse.
Thinking of this, I can't help but shed tears.
"Don't be afraid," I whisper softly.
"Last night it was you; tonight it is me."
"Now you are no longer alone, for I have shared in this pain just like you."
"May we both find peace and joy in our next lives, with blessings that endure!"
With that, I close my eyes.
I prepare to welcome the arrival of death!
At that moment, I suddenly feel a change in my Wedding Dress!
The once rigid fabric instantly becomes soft.
At the same time, a tingling sensation spreads across my skin.
Then, my entire body feels light as a feather.
This feeling is unprecedented!
I open my eyes and am astonished to find—
The Wedding Dress that was once on me begins to transform!
It slipped away from me like a pile of sand blown by the wind.
Bit by bit, drop by drop!
From the phoenix pattern on the Wedding Dress to the golden threads and jeweled embellishments...
Everything left my body!
In the end,
the entire Wedding Dress vanished without a trace!
Though I was trapped in a coffin, I did not feel any difficulty in breathing.
Perhaps,
there's a ventilation hole in this coffin?
Thinking this, I managed to turn around and glanced at Wang Zhan beside me.
Although I had accepted death, it didn’t mean I was willing to be in the company of a corpse.
However, when I turned around, I was astonished to find Wang Zhan staring directly at me!
His expression was calm, his gaze deep.
Gone was the previous terror and ferocity.
What surprised me even more was that
Wang Zhan's eyes were actually open!
Though his pupils were somewhat dilated, they were not unfocused.
It seemed that Wang Zhan had noticed my movement as well.
