The eighth day of the second lunar month is a good day for getting married.

The wedding procession was beating gongs and drums along the way. The groom in front was riding a tall horse with a big red hydrangea hanging on his chest, looking very proud. The bridal sedan behind was exquisite and decent. The wind blew the curtain of the sedan, revealing a graceful bride inside.

Anyone who sees them will say they are a match made in heaven.

As the procession was moving forward, the music band in front suddenly stopped. The groom on horseback frowned in dissatisfaction, waved his whip, and asked the drums and music to continue. The servant received the order and went forward to urge them to continue.

This group of people is none other than Su Ming's wedding procession. He had been wandering around in the world of flowers for years without getting involved in any of them. Now he has married a lady who is a good match for him and he is feeling very happy. However, he never expected that this happy band that he hired at a huge expense would come to bring misfortune upon him.

The servant ran back, panting, and reported, "Master, it was the leader of the band who stopped us, saying that there was a mass grave on the ridge not far away and we couldn't disturb it."

Su Ming didn't care about that. He didn't take a trumpet player seriously at all. He waved his hands impatiently, "Master, I want to have a good time when I marry a wife. I want them to play music. Otherwise, I won't have money to reward them. Really, there's no need to make so much trouble."

So, the team was silent for a while, then continued to play music and walked across the hill.

With the sound of drums and music, the wedding procession dressed in red robes passed by a cemetery in the wilderness in the bitter wind and rain, startling a group of jackdaws from a dead tree.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up on the mountain road, and the flying sand and rocks made it impossible to open one's eyes. The curtains of the bridal sedan were all blown away by the strong wind, and the bride under the veil was pale, but her eyes were bright.

Gradually, the strong wind swirled around the sedan chair for a long time before it dissipated.

Everyone quickly opened their eyes to check, but found nothing unusual, so at Su Ming's urging, they beat drums and gongs to welcome the bride back.

The wedding banquet was packed with guests. Su Ming's parents and father-in-law were toasting and greeting each other, and his brothers were also busy. After a while, everyone heard the sound of firecrackers "crackling" from afar.

"The young master is back to pick up the bride!" Then everyone stood up and went to the door to welcome the newlyweds.

In front of the door with big red lanterns and a wedding character pasted on it, many people of all ages crowded together, but they all consciously made way for a handsome young man and asked him to stand in front to avoid being squeezed.

The young master was none other than Rowan, who came to the wedding banquet on behalf of his father and brother. It was the first time for him to see the excitement of welcoming the bride with his own eyes and he did not want to miss it, so he squeezed towards the door with his servant.

Su Ming's parents had just introduced Oliver to everyone. It was because Oliver's appearance at the wedding banquet was so handsome that everyone's eyes lit up, so they asked about her background. Later, when everyone heard that this was the famous sickly child in Su Xingde's family, they sighed and did not dare to neglect her.

Now no one dared to squeeze Oliver at the door, for fear that he would be hurt and his eldest brother would come to beat him up.

Oliver rubbed her hands excitedly as she watched Su Ming reach out to open the curtain of the sedan chair and lead out a bride wearing a bright red veil.

But Oliver was stunned. He saw another foot sticking out of the sedan door, wearing the same embroidered shoes and the same red dress as the bride.

Everyone saw it, and the crowd became noisy.

Those who didn't know the truth congratulated him, "Why, you married two people at once! You are so lucky."

Those who knew about the situation were getting anxious. Su Ming's parents hurried over to check, "Why did you pick up two of them, Ming'er! You are acting recklessly again."

Su Ming was also puzzled, "No, I picked up Miss Zhao."

The Zhao family rushed to check, but unexpectedly, from under the veil, the two brides looked exactly the same! It was impossible to tell them apart.

Moreover, the two brides didn't say a word and just let others control them.

But the auspicious time has come. How can I explain if I don't get married? Wouldn't I become a laughing stock?

Su Ming looked at the two equally beautiful ladies, smiled greedily, and decided to marry them both.

Others marry one, but he marries a pair, isn't that happy?

So, Oliver, who was still in shock, saw Su Ming leading the two brides into the central hall, stepping over the fire basin, sprinkling dates and peanuts, and going to the hall to worship.

Friends and relatives just thought that they were twin sisters and were still envious of Su Ming's good fortune.

Oliver just felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. While others were drinking, Oliver looked up at the three newlyweds who were bowing and serving tea.

Suddenly, one of the brides turned her head to look at Oliver. Oliver paused and looked away uncomfortably.

After a while, the wedding ceremony was over. Looking at the wedding banquet in front of him, what lingered in his mind was the bride's big red veil embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.

But the groom didn't take it seriously. After the wedding ceremony, the two brides were taken to the new house in the backyard, and he began to toast everywhere happily.

Oliver doesn't drink, so he is bored and eats a plate of peanuts in front of him. At this time, Jaxon comes back from outside and brings Oliver a box of small hand warmer.

Oliver was surprised, "So fast!"

Jaxon said, "I didn't go back to the mansion to get a hand warmer because it's too far. I simply borrowed one from Mr. Zhao's servant. We are from the same hometown."

Oliver nodded. His servant had a wide network of contacts, much better than himself, a young master who rarely went out.

At this time, Jaxon glanced around and saw that everyone was drinking and no one was paying attention to them. Then he leaned close to Oliver's ear and whispered the gossip he had heard.

"Master, my fellow townsman said that this cousin is not honest. I heard that he has many lovers and is a frequent visitor to brothels. He keeps c0ncubines in brothels. A while ago, that woman even found his home, but there was no news of her. Now he has married two wives! You must not learn from him."

"Ah?" Oliver was also surprised, and then frowned. Why was his cousin like this? He thought he was a good man before, but he ended up disappointing the girl.

But then he raised his hand and knocked the boy's head, "What should I learn!"

He was sick all year round and never went out. Apart from a few maids, the only people around him who could kill a mosquito were men.

Jaxon was embarrassed, thinking that it was true. If a young master like theirs went to a brothel, he would be taken advantage of. After thinking about it, he reached out and took the big chicken leg that Oliver handed to him, and ate it happily.

It was getting dark and most of the foreign guests had left, but as a native family member, Oliver insisted on staying until the end.

However, ever since he heard the gossip about Jaxon, he felt that all the wedding night pranks were boring. He just hoped that his cousin would treat his two wives well and not go out and have affairs with other women again.

In vernacular novels and poems, all love stories are lingering and loyal, but the groom before him is indeed a philandering and passionate one.

Oliver sipped her tea in a trance at the bustling banquet, thinking to herself, true love is really hard to come by.

Just when Oliver put down the teacup and was about to go back home, she suddenly heard a shrill scream from the backyard!

"What happened!"

All the people from the Su family hurried to the bridal chamber. Although the newlyweds were in the bridal chamber, the screams clearly showed that something had happened.

It was a dark and windy night with no stars or light in the sky. Many big red lanterns were placed everywhere in the mansion. It looked festive during the day, but at night, especially in the dark night, it looked particularly strange and creepy, making the mansion look as red as a sea of ​​blood.

Everyone followed the light of the lanterns to the bridal chamber, only to see that the door to the room was wide open, with cold wind blowing in. The bride was lying on the ground, and the groom's eyes had been gouged out by something unknown, and he was lying in a pool of blood at the door, his life or death unknown.

Upon seeing this, the newlyweds' parents screamed and nearly fainted. Some of the guests from the same family were so frightened that they dared not come forward.

Oliver was frightened by the scene reflected by the red lanterns and took big steps back, but he found that among the three newlyweds getting married in the house today, the bride was missing.

At this time, someone shouted in fear, "Look, there is only one bride!"

Everyone hurriedly looked inside carefully again, and the security guard also went in to rescue people. The red candles in the house had been extinguished long ago, and it was dark inside. The security guard held a torch and walked forward carefully.

But those who entered were frightened and fled in panic.

"Ah! Help! There's a monster!"

With the help of the torches thrown by the guards in panic, Oliver saw that on the beam of the bridal chamber, there was a large bird like a gray crane squatting. It had a white hooked beak and claws, and its beak was covered in blood, which was extremely horrifying.

The big bird had heterochromatic eyes, one was blood red and scary, while the other was sparkling with golden light.

Among the guards there was a brave man who led people with swords and guns to drive away the big bird. However, the big bird made a few strange "jiejie" sounds and flapped its wings. The strong wind it caused knocked such a strong man to the ground and vomited blood.

When people saw it, they immediately screamed and ran away.

Oliver had already been dragged away by Jaxon, but he was shocked beyond words. Was that a monster? Was that vicious man-eating creature the same as the little monsters in his flower pond?

Amid the panic of the crowd, they saw the strange bird standing on the beam with eyes as sharp as torches. It tilted its head and looked at the screaming and scattered crowd, and then its eyes were fixed on Oliver who had already run out of the mansion.

The strange bird spread its wings again, flew out of the room with a whoosh, bringing a fishy breeze, and pounced towards Oliver with its sharp claws open!

The sky was dark. Oliver turned his head when he heard the sound. He vaguely saw the "strange bird" with a pair of strange eyes staring at him and flying towards him. He was immediately scared out of his wits.

Jaxon screamed, "Master, run!" and then he tried to lead the strange bird away by himself.

Oliver saw through his intentions at a glance and gritted his teeth. He didn't know how many years he could live with his sick body, and Jaxon was still young...

So without saying a word, he used all his strength to pull Jaxon over, and just as the monster bird's sharp claws were about to pounce, he threw the little butler into the alley next to him.

Jaxon was caught off guard. He never expected that his young master had such strength. In his panic, he was knocked unconscious by the rubble brought up by the strong wind.

Oliver, who was outside the alley, could no longer dodge. In his pupils, which were trembling with fear, the sharp claws of the strange bird were reflected as it got closer and closer.

At this critical moment, a deafening tiger roar sounded behind him. The tiger roar created a strong wind that stopped the strong wind around the strange bird.

Then, Oliver, who was sitting on the ground, saw a huge spotted tiger leap out from behind him. It was extremely majestic, holding up its extremely long tail, and pounced on the strange bird. The two giant beasts immediately started to tear each other apart.

The giant tiger was very ferocious. It first bit off the wings of the strange bird so that it could not flap its wings and escape. Then it circled around and pounced on the neck of the strange bird, seemingly having the upper hand.

Oliver was gasping for air after surviving the ordeal. Looking at the inhuman scene before him, his hands and feet were shaking and his throat was so dry that he couldn't speak.

Very scary.

At this moment, "people" seem so small. Not only do they have no power to fight back, but they may not even be enough to be a full meal for these ferocious beasts.

Oliver's limbs were numb, his heart was beating violently, and his head was buzzing. He felt like he was nailed to the spot, unable to even escape.

At this moment, as the two beasts were fighting desperately, a "splashing" sound was heard from the drainage ditches on both sides of the street, and a group of little monsters in the water appeared.

A turtle said to the giant salamander beside him whose body was red from using magic power, "Come on! Little salamander, the Dragon King once told us that we must not let anyone see the monsters fighting."

The giant salamander kept groaning, his face reddening even more, and he desperately opened the soundproof cover to cover the nearby residents. Then he did not forget to shake the six-cornered turtle to urge the turtle to find the young master!

Wang Ba was not vague either. He called a bunch of brothers, including Qingtou Gan, Luntou Qing, Beng Hulu Ba, and Ba Hulu Beng, to go find Oliver.

Oliver was biting his tongue and screaming to wake up so that he could hide. At this time, under the dark moon, he saw a lot of bright lights like ghost lights suddenly crawling up from the ditches on both sides of the street. He became even more scared and felt that God was trying to kill him.

The "ghost fires" kept approaching him, but when he got closer, he saw that they were actually fish heads and shrimp heads, led by a turtle he was familiar with, and the "ghost fires" were the reflective eyes of the little demons.

"My lord, my lord! Don't just lie there like an idiot. Come with me! This Rakshasa bird is too ferocious. It wants to eat people's eyeballs. General Zouwu still has old injuries and may not be able to defeat it!"

But at this moment, when Oliver saw the familiar little monster, he couldn't help but become afraid. He only realized it clearly when he saw the pool of blood in Su Ming's new house today.

The monster wants to eat people.

The situation was urgent. Wang Ba didn't have time to explain in detail. He also didn't care whether Oliver was willing or not. He tilted his neck and blew out a bubble. The bubble covered Oliver with a "pop" sound. The little monsters rushed up together, pushed the bubble with all their hands and feet, and ran away.

In the fierce battle over there, the strange bird was hit hard and bitten by the colorful long-tailed tiger, leaving blood and flesh everywhere, but this only aroused its ferocity even more.

The strange bird let out a hissing cry, raised its claws and dug out its golden eyeball, then injected all its demonic power into it.

Suddenly, the golden eye rose to the sky, bursting out with astonishing demonic power, and immediately knocked out the already exhausted Zouwu.

The golden eye was so powerful that even the giant salamanders trying to block out noise in the waterway were stunned.

Zou Wu was shocked and shouted, "Dragon Eye!"

The Rakshasa bird took the opportunity to stir up the fishy wind again, insisting on eating Oliver's eyes. The group of little demons could not resist at all, and the turtle's blisters were broken by the Rakshasa bird's claws.

Oliver only felt a buzzing sound in his head and a tight pain in his heart, and then he lost consciousness.

At this moment, all the monsters saw a burst of pure dragon power burst out from Oliver's chest. As the golden light spread, it seemed that even the surrounding air was still.

The blood-red eye of the Rakshasa Bird was burned by the golden light, and it immediately wanted to retreat. This was its instinct. Under such pressure, it knew that it didn't need to try, and that it would die if it didn't escape.

Oliver was floating in the air, and a dark figure gradually emerged from behind him.

The only dark moon in the night sky was also obscured by rolling thick clouds. The sky and the earth were dark, with only the golden light on Oliver's chest spreading domineeringly and fiercely.

The figure stretched out his right hand, and the arm suddenly turned into a huge scaly claw, which grabbed the fleeing Rakshasa bird and pressed it to the ground.

Then, the dragon eye that was driven by the Rakshasa bird's demon power also fell under the dragon's power, and its brilliance, which had long been restrained, automatically returned to the figure's left hand.

The dragon eye that was struck off by lightning and temporarily taken over by the ghost demon now returned to its place and filled the dark eye socket of the figure again.

Zhuo Wu knelt on the ground respectfully with his wounds, and the turtle opened its mouth wide, looking at the figure and stammering, "Ah, dragon, dragon, dragon, Lord Dragon!"

The legendary Lord Dragon King was floating in the thick fog in mid-air, holding the unconscious Oliver in his left hand. He then opened his mouth and made a "buzzing" sound at the Rakshasa Bird that was pinned to the ground by the charred dragon claws.

As soon as the dragon spoke, the monsters fell to their knees.

"You are evil creatures who are born with evil spirits, and you want to transform yourself into dragons and gain enlightenment. This is disrespectful to all living things."

Then, the dragon claw pressed down fiercely, and the Rakshasa bird screamed, and immediately turned into a resentful air from the tomb and dissipated.

Thunder gradually sounded in the sky. The Dragon King collected the Dharma Dragon Soul and looked towards the border town next to the Jinshui River. He saw evil spirits rising to the sky in the city.

Then, Long Jun held Oliver in his arms, calmly opened the Baiyujing, and spoke before entering.

"All creatures and animals, come to pay their respects to those who come to my waters."

After saying that, he waved his hand and disappeared into the streets of the human world, taking with him a group of kneeling aquatic creatures.

As soon as Long Jun finished speaking, many "people" in the city froze.

Standing in front of the window on the fifth floor of Denggao Pavilion, looking at the proprietress in the distance, he respectfully closed the window.

The big man who was frying insects in the shabby room bowed his head humbly.

In the town, shadowy "people" kept appearing, kneeling on the ground and bowing in the direction of the Dragon King.

After surviving a catastrophe, the Dragon King shows up in the world, and all the demons go to pay homage to him in order to obtain a seal from him.
