MTL - Twilight Boundary

Chapter 54 Huangxian moves

 “Oh, what is that...”

The villagers were originally paying attention to the lean man, but they were suddenly startled by the movement in the corner.

They all retreated, not knowing why.

Hu Ma walked forward quickly and picked up the waist knife that fell on the ground. He saw a little blood on it and a few yellow fluffs. He didn't know what they were.

 “What are you thinking about?”

 The old shopkeeper stood up and glanced at Xu Ji'er, his face seemed quite unhappy.

His words of "Eastern corner" were originally meant for Xu Ji'er, asking him to cooperate with him to get rid of this evil spirit.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ji didn't react, but Hu Ma reached out and threw the knife.

This Xu Ji knew that he had not performed well just now, and felt ashamed and ashamed, feeling quite unable to get off the stage.

 “Master!”

Hu Ma came over and showed the bloodstained lint on the knife to the old shopkeeper.

The old shopkeeper picked up a few hairs, rubbed them in front of his eyes, and said calmly: "It turns out that a bunch of immortals have come."

 “You did well.”

　　　…”

Hu Ma was startled for a moment before realizing that he was praising himself.

 “Okay, this man will be fine.”

The old shopkeeper turned to the villagers who were still stunned and said: "It's just that he was rushed by the immortal family. It's not a big deal. You carry him back. He should be looked at and treated for his injuries."

"But don't go to the ground for these two or three days. When the weather is good, take it to the yard to bask in the sun... You don't have to give me the money you gave to the Red Lantern Lady. You can also go to your village chief to figure it out." ”

The villagers were relieved, thanked him profusely, and carried him back in a fussy manner.

“Is this the red lantern society’s co-ruler still in charge of these things?”

Hu Ma was watching from the side, feeling strange, but before he could stop thinking about it, he saw the old shopkeeper turning to them again and said: "It's a coincidence that you guys are here, please put down your bedding!"

“Light a lantern, go to the base of the big rock on the west side of the town, see what’s there, and let them go away quickly.”

　　　…”

"ah?"

Only then did everyone realize that the matter was not over yet.

 But when I looked at the dark winter night outside, I suddenly felt frightened.

It's night now. If you see these evil spirits during the day, you will be afraid. Now at night, who dares to provoke them?

 But Hu Ma reacted, guessing that this should be a test.

He was the first to put the bed roll in the corner. When Zhou Datong and the others saw Hu Ma doing this, they followed him and put it down.

The teenagers who came with them were also busy following their example.

But he put it down, but he didn't know how to go. However, the young man in brocade who had not reacted well just now was busy showing off and hurriedly entered the side room. After a while, two people came over carrying a red lantern. :

 “What are you still doing? Follow me!”

Even though I already knew that this young man in brocade clothes had just arrived here just like me, he had arrived a few days earlier and seemed to know the rules better than me, so I didn't dare to disobey him.

　　They gathered together one by one, bravely followed the strange red lantern, and walked out of the village one step at a time.

This town is not big, and they live on the edge of the town. Within a few steps, they were already in the wild.

 In the distance, the moonlight was dark, and only the strange red light of the red lantern could vaguely distinguish the roads and fields.

After walking for about a stick of incense, I vaguely saw a big stone in the field in front of me through the red light. It was standing at the foot of the mountain. I didn't know if it was a monument or something earlier. I could only see that the bottom was hollowed out. There is a dark cave in the thorns.

The young man in brocade raised his hand, but the young man who followed him in a muffled voice stopped quickly.

“They spread out to the left and right and surrounded the stone.”

The guys suddenly listened to his order and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

But following the young man in brocade clothes, two people who seemed to be very close to him began to push and shove impatiently, and even hit a guy who was slow to react, asking him to stand aside.

The guys then realized what they were doing, and hurriedly stood around the big stone, about two steps apart. In order to form a tight circle, two or three people even had to stand in the thorn bushes, but no one dared to raise an objection.

Seeing that everyone was already standing, the young man in brocade clothes stood in front of the big stone holding a red lantern and motioned to the people around him.

The two men knew what was going on, so they burned three pillars of incense in front of the stone, and there were also a few offerings.

After finishing this, the young man in brocade clothes cleared his throat, raised the red lantern, and shouted loudly towards Shixia:

“People have villages, and ghosts have boundaries.”

“I think some of the great immortals don’t quite understand the rules here. The red light has been turned on, but you still broke in.”

“Today, I want to make it clear to the immortal. If you are just passing by, I will offer you incense and send you off politely. Everyone will be safe.”

"But if you want to take root here, then please look carefully. The lamp I am holding belongs to the Red Lantern Empress. If the light is red, it will be the place of incense for the Red Lantern Empress in a radius of ten miles. If enemies come in, they will become enemies.”

　　　…”

Having said that, he raised the red light high above his head and just stared at the bottom of the bridge.

All the young men held their breath and did not dare to breathe out.

The surrounding grass is rustling, the fields on both sides are dark, and no one knows what is hidden. Hu Ma stared at the red lantern and felt that the red light became more and more alluring, as if even the night was dyed red.

At some point, the surrounding temperature seemed to be getting cooler and cooler.

The cold wind swirled around them, as if invisible hands were touching their bodies.

"whee…"

They were feeling frightened in their hearts when they suddenly heard an extremely strange sound. It was similar to the evil Liu Dayun family they heard in Zhuangzi before. However, this sound did not come from under the big blue stone that they were paying attention to. But behind.

They were all shocked and turned around to look, only to see it was one of their own clerks.

He twisted his body, put his palm on his mouth, as if covering his mouth and smiled, his eyes swept across the crowd, and said: "Red Lantern Lady, we don't know you."

“My whole family has worked so hard to move here, and we haven’t even had a full meal, so we have to drive them away...”

"You are too unreasonable..."

　　　…”

The people around him were so frightened that they didn’t dare to say anything. In the deathly silence, only the sharp and strange sound could be heard in their ears.

 Hearing it makes people feel heavy-hearted and dizzy.

“The Red Lantern Lady’s lamp is hung here, that’s why.”

The young man in brocade frowned when he heard this and raised his voice: "Now I'm trying to persuade you, but you don't listen? Do you have to fight with me?"

His words were filled with anger, and the surroundings were quiet at first, and then suddenly various high-pitched and weird laughter rang out.

"You're a very arrogant kid. My family doesn't cause any trouble, but if you do, you'll kick them out."

“If it’s really good to eat and drink and offer offerings, we can still talk about it, but we just light a few sticks of incense, arrogantly ask people to move, and say that this is a good thing...”

　　　…”

As the sharp voice sounded, two or three of the guys who were surrounding the big rock were swaying, and they didn't know whose mouth the voice came from. They could only feel the dark wind in the wilderness, and everyone was shaking. Everyone was cold and creepy.

 “Haha, it’s just a trick, isn’t it?”

The young man in brocade clothes was irritated. He suddenly took a step forward and raised his hand to slap the forehead of the young man who just spoke.

But unexpectedly, with his movement, a gust of dark wind quietly blew up under the stone.

But no one expected that the young man in brocade would react so quickly. Or perhaps, he intended to lure the thing out. He had just taken one step and suddenly pulled out a red shirt from his waist. thing.

Huma was not far away from him, and when he looked closely, it looked like a wooden sword.

The young man in brocade clothes, holding a wooden sword, turned around and started shooting. He heard a "chi" sound, and the cold wind suddenly disappeared, as if something was hitting him in the distance.

All the teenagers were frightened, and then they heard a squeaking noise around them.

 The grass next to the stone was shaking, and something was vaguely visible, running very fast, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

They all stood there, daring not to move, until all the commotion around them disappeared and everything became quiet.

 “You can run fast.”

The young man in brocade finally lost his vigilance, put away the wooden sword proudly, and cooed at the people around him:

 “Bring it on!”

　　　…”

The two teenagers beside him hurriedly ran to the place where something fell, and after a while, they picked up a weasel.

 Look carefully, you can see that the body is limp and lifeless.

 It’s just shocking to look at. The beard on the weasel’s mouth has turned white. It’s unknown how long it has lived.

"so amazing…"

 The guys around him looked at him with admiration in their eyes.

Hu Ma watched from the side, but vaguely felt something strange. He had seen a lot of the behavior of his mother-in-law and second master, and was somewhat affected. Seeing this young man in brocade clothes so arrogant, he felt a little surprised.

Hongdeng Empress is much more domineering than Lao Huotangzi...

Furthermore, although this nest of Huangxian is evil, it seems that there is nothing to talk about, but he killed him just as he said it?

In addition, the ability of this young man in brocade also frightened him. When he was in Zhuangzi, he was very bossy, but in his opinion, it was okay. He felt that his fire was not very strong. Of course, he was better than Cui Xie'er, but it was also limited. , should not reach Yizhu Daoxing.

But who would have thought that this shot would be so powerful that it was terrifying?

 The sword cut off the skin, which was much more powerful than myself.

“His firepower should not be as good as mine. Could it be that the wooden sword in his hand is more powerful?”

Thinking silently in his heart, he followed the young men around him, picked up the weasel's body, and walked towards the village.

The young man in brocade clothes was very proud and walked at the front without explaining much.

Zhou Datong, however, couldn't bear his temper and couldn't help but said: "Brother, what did we just do?"

 “What did you do?”

The young man in brocade clothes was very arrogant and not in a good mood. He said: "This is what we mainly do after joining the Red Lantern Club."

“What I bumped into today was just a bunch of passers-by. There will be something even more powerful in the future!”

“When it comes to our cabinet, there are rules for everything you say and do. You just have to learn from it. Don’t be ignorant and try to steal the limelight at will!”
