Twilight Boundary

After sleeping for a day and a night, important news was conveyed, and even a general distribution was made. The heavy stone in Hu Ma's heart was also lifted. When he woke up the next day, he was already in high spirits.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I felt a kind of lazy comfort. The dim sunlight outside the window poured in, and everything I experienced yesterday seemed like a dream.

Feeling that a mouthful of blood had returned to his body that had been hollowed out yesterday, he put on his clothes, folded up the tattered Taoist robe, and put on the robe of his Blood Food Gang's little steward. He put on his green belt and cloth shoes and got up to go out.

It was already the early morning of the third day, and the mist had not yet dissipated, but it looked much cooler above Shima Town.

The people who came from all over to participate in the Lantern Festival had already left with satisfaction during the day yesterday. The merchants and mules and horses that had been trapped in the town also quickly followed these people when they saw that the surroundings were safe.

With their departure, this light blessing event organized by the Yiqian Sect will surely spread to various places quickly, and it is unknown what kind of changes it will cause.

"Uncle Hu is up..."

Just as Hu Ma was thinking in her mind, she didn't expect that there was a voice approaching first. Hu Ma turned around and saw that it was Lao Qi from the Sun family. His expression was a little surprised and a little worried.

He has something to confess while he's here, but it's hard to say it.

Uncle Hu gave the sword to him for forging. After half a month of forging, it was time to get the sword. However, three days before handing over the sword, the sword suddenly flew out of the window. went?

I don’t know if Uncle Hu will blame him. If things get serious, the master who forged the knife may not be able to afford the compensation if he sells him directly.

Just as he was struggling, not knowing how to explain this matter, Hu Ma immediately smiled, took out the knife wrapped in the baggage, and said with a smile: "I was just looking for you. It was dangerous the night before yesterday, so I went to get this knife. Defend yourself.”

"But look, this sword hasn't been forged yet. It has no handle or scabbard. You can take it back and help me mend it... You don't have to be polite about how much silver it should be. Just tell me."

"..."

"ah?"

The seventh child of the Sun family was suddenly surprised, surprised and happy: "So it was Uncle Hu who took the knife?"

"The old master has been crying in the shop for two days. As long as he pays for it with his life..."

"..."

"?"

Hu Ma was startled for a moment and couldn't help but smile bitterly. She blamed herself. When she took the knife, she didn't say anything, but she frightened the master who was helping to forge the knife.

"Please make amends for me and give me more money."

Hu Ma also hurriedly handed over the knife and said with a smile: "Where is your father?"

"My dad..."

The seventh child of the Sun family looked around first, then lowered his voice and said, "Let's go. I left early yesterday morning because I was busy with something important."

"One hundred and thirty miles east of this town, there is a mountain of rotten peach. There are hundreds of strong men on it. The leader is familiar with my father. My father went to find them. I wanted to talk to you before leaving, but That little devil of yours who is guarding the gate is so cruel that he won’t let my father make any noise.”

"I had no choice but to leave with my friends from all walks of life. I was left here waiting for you, Uncle Hu, to come out. If you need anything else, just ask me!"

"..."

"This old man Sun is really concerned about rebellion when he encounters it. He won't waste even a day..."

Hu Ma sighed and took another look: "Where's my old accountant? The one who came with me?"

When I just came out, I saw that the old abacus room was empty. When I got to the street, I saw no one. And looking at the stable over there, it seemed that the donkeys were gone and only the horse master was left. As soon as he saw himself, he turned his head angrily. Go, I'm in a very bad mood.

"Ah, senior Abacus, he's gone too..."

The seventh child of the Sun family hurriedly said: "I got up early yesterday and ran away with the donkey. I left earlier than my father and the others..."

"Before leaving, he also asked for ten blood food pills from me. He said that he worked hard last night and secretly helped this lantern festival. He was exhausted, so he had to take a good supplement."

"I didn't even have enough blood pills with me, so I helped him collect some and gave them to him. I just said I was filial to him and there was no need to count the money. He was quite particular. He said it was a loan, but it had to be linked to Uncle Hu. On the account..."

"..."

"?"

Hearing this, Hu Ma was stunned for a moment. How many dangerous things happened last night, and this old guy still remembered to take advantage...

...The key is that you just take it. The Sun family has a big business and they don't care. Why do they still need to put my account on the line?

...I have to talk to him about this matter of 10,000 kilograms of blood food pills later!

He moved casually and was about to wander over to Bushi Niu. He was thinking about discussing it with Erguotou and the others, but the direction he had decided on for the time being was unexpected. In the teahouse opposite the inn, he saw a man who had changed his clothes. Fairy Miaoshan in casual clothes led an old man out.

Her expression was excited, and when she saw Hu Ma, she was about to bow and salute, but Hu Ma quickly stopped her and looked behind her at the old man who looked like an old farmer in the field, her eyes lingering on him for a moment.

Several different thoughts also flashed through my mind, but in the end, I just sighed lightly and said to them: "Now, what is the relationship between me and the non-eating cow?"

"ah?"

Fairy Miaoshan was startled, as if she didn't expect that after such a thing together, Hu Ma would ask such unreasonable questions. However, the old farmer suddenly stepped forward slowly and bowed slightly to Hu Ma. , whispered: "Leader."

"You passed three levels and twelve tribulations, cultivated the seal of the mighty God General, protected the Lantern Festival, fought back three thousand Yin soldiers, and even killed..."

"...Of course you are our leader."

"In other words, he is our teacher."

"When outsiders see you, they must call you the leader, otherwise they will disrespect me and don't eat cows. We can also call you the wise teacher, just because you are my disciple who doesn't eat cows and have waited for twenty years to guide us. The destined person.”

"..."

"so……"

Last night, Hu Ma had already met with the disciples who did not eat cows. However, the situation was critical at that time and it was not easy to say more. Moreover, those monsters were not very formal. Even if they thought of something, they had no chance to say it. come out.

Now looking at the old man, he was slightly silent, and then slowly said: "Then, if I am curious about some things in Buchi Niu, you won't hide it from me?"

The old man nodded slightly and said: "We are looking for someone to solve the problem, so naturally we don't dare to hide it anymore."

Hu Ma breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then let's go!"

Last night, he had a discussion with Erguotou, Miss Baijiu, and Houerjiu. He felt that all kinds of things were very urgent, and there were doubts in every aspect. But if one thing must be done, The most important thing is not to eat cows.

If you want to understand all of this, or even want to straighten things out, or even learn more about some of the secrets of the reincarnations of the previous generation, you must start with this non-eating cow.

Of course, the job of contacting them must be done by oneself. Although they are a group of rebellious monsters, instead of alienating them, one must actively approach them.

So, I followed the old farmer and Fairy Miaoshan and arrived in front of the Zongtan mansion. I saw that the mourning hall that was originally set up in the courtyard was still there, but the large vat that was originally placed here suddenly disappeared. There were ten people, one on each side.

There were traces of burning incense in front of the big tank. It seemed that it was because it was consumed too much the night before and we were trying to find a way to raise it back.

After entering the second courtyard, I immediately saw that there were two other disciples who did not eat cows in the courtyard. One was the leader of the opera troupe, and the other was an old man carrying his granddaughter. When he saw Hu Ma coming in, he Stand up and perform the ritual of caressing your chest.

The etiquette in this world is either kowtow or clasping hands. This kind of breast caressing ceremony seems particularly weird. As soon as Hu Ma saw it, he knew that it must have been taught by the reincarnation.

In the previous life, this kind of etiquette would not have seemed weird, but in this world, it always makes people feel that this breast caressing etiquette has something evil.

But he didn't say much. He just raised his head slightly and looked at the old elm tree that covered the sky. The things tied to the tree had long been gone, and only the top branches were left hanging. The broken armor, official boots, and that seal.

Standing under the tree, he pondered for a long time and said, "What is the thing hanging on it?"

The Fairy Miaoshan next to her heard this and stopped talking.

Beside her, the man who looked like an old farmer slowly stepped forward and answered respectfully: "The rotten iron armor, the measuring boots, and...the nameless seal."

"These are all old items left by the previous leader. They are stained with magical power. Only the leader himself can make these things. Therefore, although they are rare treasures, after so many years, no one in my sect has been blessed to use them. ”

"..."

"Is it?"

Hu Ma listened to his words and looked up at the tree.

The square armor and boots had already appeared on him the night before yesterday, but they seemed to be just borrowed from others, not really given to him.

Moreover, at that time, I was eager to kill the second son of the Meng family. Although I had armor on my upper body and boots on my feet, I could feel that there was something strange about them, but I couldn't take a closer look at them.

As for the seal, I didn't have time to handle it the night before yesterday, so I don't know what it does.

Now he was just curiously looking at the three things on it, and finally his eyes fell on the seal. He vaguely felt that among the three things, this one should be the most important, but he didn't know in what form he could get it. .

Just as he was thinking about it, he walked slowly under the tree, but at this moment, the breeze blew from the side, blowing the tree branches, and the seal hanging on it suddenly fell down.

Unfortunately, it happened to fall into Hu Ma's hands.

Hu Ma was slightly startled, but she didn't show any strange expression. She just raised her hand, looked at it briefly, and then put it into her sleeve.

To him, this seemed to be a very smooth and natural thing, but when it fell into the eyes of the people from the Fu Niu Sect next to him, especially the senior brother, his eyebrows twitched fiercely and he looked at Under the tree, there were a pair of deep footprints with spider web cracks beside them.

It was when he tried to take off the seal the night before yesterday that it was pressed out by the weight of the seal.
