An unusual event signals something monstrous; indeed, the mayor wanted to find a wife for his son.
But, his son was dead.
This so-called marriage was a ghost marriage.
As the name suggests, a ghost marriage is for those who are deceased.
Meanwhile, the mother and daughter finally reunited, only for the mayor to then want to take the daughter's life, which the mother naturally opposed.
To protect her daughter, she ultimately died at the hands of thugs brought by the mayor.
The daughter was also executed by the mayor according to the words of a wandering priest before being paired with his late son in a ghost marriage.
Since then, the fence-enclosed courtyard had been devoid of life.
"The laundry woman earlier was clearly worried about the mother and daughter in the fence courtyard, while the waiter said they were already dead..."
Quan Jinbei's expression carried a hint of speculation.
"Perhaps, the people in this Ghost Domain don't have equal information."
