Twilight Boundary

 Chapter 522: Fighting on the Gang

This prayer and these words are extremely sincere.

At first, Hu Ma only thought that this was a test left by her mother-in-law for herself. When she had the ability to solve this desperate village, she would come to get this token.

 But later I realized that my mother-in-law did not intend to test herself. No matter what her status was, she was a descendant of the Hu family. No matter what her abilities were, she was the only descendant of the Zhenzong Mansion still alive. There was no need to test her when inheriting the family property.

In this case, there is a reason why she placed the Hu family's token here. The resentful ghosts in Juehu Village are equivalent to the guards who help the Hu family guard the token.

Even if they are unaware of it and do not do it deliberately, as descendants of the Hu family, we must express our gratitude to them.

After bowing, Hu Ma straightened up. Without hesitation, he took a deep breath and took big steps into the dark village.

The four tall stone monuments erected around the village are like four pillars, surrounding the village. The black air and billowing resentful souls surging inside like a tsunami will not overflow outside the village.

And when Hu Ma, as a living person, passed through the square gate stone and walked towards the village, the black air filled inside began to evaporate like boiling water, and the countless shadowy ghosts emitted a numbing sound. There was a strange laugh, and his face was full of greed.

Even the four stone tablets vibrated slightly, as if they were sending a warning to outsiders, or as if something inside was too active, causing the four stone tablets to tremble uncontrollably.

But Hu Ma narrowed his eyes and ignored all of this. He took a slight step and crossed the boundary line formed by four stone monuments. The next moment, he felt that the sharp wind that could cut human skin and flesh was close to him in an instant. Come on the face.

Wherever I passed, I found that everything was lifelike, the houses were cleaned extremely clean, and the children were all wearing neat clothes. The villagers leading the way and on both sides, some feeding chickens, some eating, and some spinning cloth, were all curious. He looked at the visitor.

He raised his sleeves to cover his face, and secretly mentioned Dao Xing to block the yin energy. Then he opened his eyes to look, but suddenly felt that the sun was dazzling, and there was a field of white flowers in front of him. He concentrated slightly, looked to the left and right, and saw that he was now , as if in a paradise.

At that time, I remember that there was a stone box wrapped with an iron chain on top of the stone mill, which contained the Hu family's keepsake.

The clan leader looked grateful and sighed: "She is very kind to our village..."

As far as the eye can see, I can see neat houses, bustling people, chickens and ducks running all over the ground, children chasing dogs and cats, the white sun shining down from above, and smoke rising from every house.

"If it weren't for her, we would have abandoned our body, wandered in the dark, and had nowhere to rely on. How could we have the joy of being far away from the worldly world, suffering from old age, illness, and ease?"

 “My friend’s descendants came here and were greeted from afar, so I sat down and sat down.”

He had been to this deserted village once before and vaguely remembered the layout of the path, which was exactly the same as what he had seen before. He even looked up and saw the stone mill in the middle of the village.

Hu Ma was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything. He followed them in and looked around.

As he was talking, a young girl with a red face and a bulging chest came in from outside the house, carrying tea. The cup was steaming and the tea was fragrant.

Outside the house door and outside the window, there are little heads crowded together everywhere, but they are the urchins in the village. They all know that there are guests, and they are curious, so they huddle together and look into the house.

“Of course she is the most kind-hearted walking ghost mother-in-law in our seven miles and eight villages...”

 “Oops, a guest is coming…”

Seeing him entering the village, enthusiastic voices suddenly sounded next to him, but villagers with smiling faces came to greet him one after another. They bowed to Hu Ma from a distance and said with a smile: "Guests, please come inside. Please come." Sit in the clan master’s room.”

"Now my whole Shixia Village, old and young, has entered the fairyland in the box. They are happy and have no desires. They only regret not being able to repay the kindness of the ghost mother-in-law. Now that her blood relatives are here, how can we Don’t you want to repay me well?”

But now when I looked over, I couldn't see the stone box. I only saw strong villagers driving cattle. The corn in the bags was poured in, and the millstone was turned round and round, and the white rice was flowing out. out.

　　　…”

Seeing everything in his eyes, Hu Ma was speechless. Surrounded by the enthusiastic villagers, the man they called the clan leader was sitting in the house. In the house, there was an old man who looked very old, wearing a round hat. Holding a cane, he greeted me enthusiastically.

The tea was brought to Hu Ma's face, but he did not accept it. He just looked at the clan leader and said, "I don't drink tea. I'm just curious about the happiness you mentioned. How happy is it?"

 Hands and claps: "Come on, come on, bring the tea..."

Hu Ma was helped to sit down, then looked at the old man and said with a smile: "The old friend the old man mentioned is..."

“I have no worries about food and clothing, my dreams come true, and I am away from illness and disaster. What’s another disadvantage?”

The clan leader smiled and said: "There are still twenty points of benefits. My old man is illiterate and can't explain it. My little benefactor will understand it after drinking tea."

As he spoke, he nodded his head with a smile that was clearly very sincere. The villagers around him, the older girl who handed him tea, and even the children huddled together outside the window all nodded along, all smiling. .

In this village, the sun is dazzling and the wind is warm. Everyone looks rich and smiles.

Hu Ma watched silently, feeling that it was so real. He lowered his head and glanced at the tea handed over by the blushing girl. There were a few tea leaves floating in it. It was green and fresh, and the fragrance of the tea seemed to be alive, flowing directly into people's eyes. Drilling inside the nasal cavity.

He stretched out his hand, but did not take the tea. Instead, he took the older girl's wrist. He felt that the touch was smooth, warm and fragrant, but he did not find any flaws.

"Oh..." The elder girl had her wrist pulled by Hu Ma. Her face turned red with embarrassment, but she didn't free herself. She just turned her head away as if she was shy.

The clan elder next to him raised his head and laughed, and the villagers around him also raised their head and laughed. The urchins huddled together outside the house also raised their head and laughed: "The elder girl blushed and wanted to get married." ,marriage!"

The clan elder smiled and nodded: "Get married, get married, get married after having tea."

Hu Ma only felt countless voices squeezing into his mind, as if he was under the water, and his eardrums were squeezed to the point of discomfort. He pondered for a moment, and suddenly secretly worked hard, preparing to turn his whole body to death.

 But this achievement made me surprised.

His own body is still in good condition, but it seems that he has lost the ability of the old man to turn his whole body into death.

It's as if you are really in a warm and prosperous village. The sunshine above your head is shining down. The warmth, as well as the clan elders around you and the young girl who comes to serve tea are all real. Every plant and tree. One cup of tea, every detail is revealed, without any flaws.

So he slowly put down the eldest girl's wrist, glanced at the smiling faces around him, and said: "I won't drink tea, and I won't get married. If you really want to thank me..."

Looking through the half-open door of the clan's hometown, he looked at the millstone and said, "I want what's on the millstone."

The clan elder stopped smiling and looked puzzled: "You want grain fields, there are grain fields in our village, you want big girls, there are big girls in our village, you want chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, there are plenty to eat in our village. Chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs…”

“…But you insist on asking for this stone roller?”

　　　…”

Hu Ma nodded and said, "Yes."

The old man’s face already looked a little ugly and he said, “Why do you want this thing?”

Hu Ma smiled and said, "Of course it's because this is the only thing that can grind off the skin of grain to see if it's rotten inside..."

 “Shua!”

When he said this, the countless smiling people around him suddenly stopped smiling. Even the naughty children crowded outside the door and outside the window did the same, with countless eyes looking straight at them. flax.

The elder of the tribe also gave him a cane: "I've been waiting to treat you well, but you want to ask for the blessing root in our village? If I give it to you, will we all eat food that does not peel off in the future?"

 “Come here, let’s feed the guests some tea.”

　　　…”

After giving the order, the villagers surrounding him swarmed forward and pressed down on Hu Ma's arms and shoulders. The girl who served the tea gritted her teeth and pushed the tea in the cup forward fiercely. , poured into Hu Ma’s mouth.

Hu Ma sighed quietly, suddenly stood up and took a step forward.

The surrounding area was filled with palms rushing forward, people squeezing up, and even a big girl who was hugged up, but he ignored them all and just took this step.

 Follow closely, twist your body and take the second step.

 I felt that following my steps, there was a chaotic sound of breaking and tearing cloth around me.

He took seven steps in succession without even looking at where he landed. If it was a table or chair, he would crush it directly. If it was someone's arms or legs, he would break it with his kicks. Even if there were iron nails under his feet, he would still let the iron fall. The nails penetrated the soles of my feet, but I still had to stand firm.

"Snapped!"

When he took the seventh step and stepped on the ground, he suddenly saw that everything in front of him was fading rapidly, and the white sunlight turned into a gloomy and gloomy wind.

The very real faces became ethereal, distorted and weird.

Even the tea that was forcibly handed to her face by the big girl, the intact coarse porcelain tea cup turned into tattered tiles, the green tea leaves turned into a few black and stained teeth, the fragrant tea, It turned into dark red rancid blood.

There were pale and gloomy faces all around. The naughty boy's eyes fell to the side of his nose, shaking like snot.

Outside, there were no people grinding grain. There were only a group of gloomy little ghosts surrounding the iron box. They opened their mouths wide and crunched, gnawing hard with all their strength. I don’t know how long they had been chewing. .

 “Hoo!”

Hu Ma breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it: "This is the normal style of painting..."
