Twilight Boundary Chapter 186

Chapter 186 The evil spirit comes to the door

"This is…"

Hearing this, Hu Ma couldn't help feeling excited: "Did this senior promise that he would take action when necessary?"

Ever since the people from the Meng family in Tongyin came, I really couldn't let go.

Now that I heard what he said, I finally feel a little more at ease.

But then I thought about it again, this senior said that he could not leave Laoyin Mountain, and also said that he would go there if necessary.

Is it possible that if he wants to go over, he has to pay a price?

At this point, the explanation has been given, but Hu Ma's curiosity is getting stronger and stronger now, and she is not willing to leave just now. Instead, after thinking for a moment, she suddenly said to the old tree stump: "Senior, I still have I have a question to ask…”

"I know that our Hu family must have some grudges with the Meng family, but I am just confused..."

“I want to ask, when will I know all this?”

After hearing Hu Ma's question, the figure on the old tree stump became slightly silent, as if a heavy gaze fell on Hu Ma.

After a moment, he said softly: "You used to hide and didn't want to become the Hu family. Your Hu family was once reduced to the point where you only relied on the Bai family who married in to help you support your last incense. Even us outsiders watched. Everyone sympathizes with her."

“Today, I think you finally understand some things, but if you want to understand these things, or take over the burden from your mother-in-law, you must first become a true Hu family member.”

 “Become a real Hu family member?”

Hearing what the old tree stump said, Hu Ma once again had a strange idea.

He has excluded his biggest secret. His surname is Hu, and his mother-in-law recognizes him. Why did he say this?

 After pondering for a moment, he said: "Senior, I didn't learn the Hu family's method earlier, but now, I have tried to understand it and used it once."

If you haven't learned the skills of the Hu family, you are not considered a Hu family, then you are at least a beginner now, right?

 “I can see that.”

The figure on the old tree stump said softly: "But you are still not considered a member of the Hu family."

Hu Ma suddenly frowned: "What should I do?"

Hearing this, the old tree stump suddenly smiled and said, "I don't know, because I'm not from the Hu family."

Hu Ma was stunned for a moment and cursed in her mind: "The Riddler should all die..."

 The old tree stump said lightly: "I can feel the good and evil in people's hearts, and I can also feel whether you are scolding me in your heart..."

Hu Ma thought silently: "Senior Old Tree Stump is invincible..."

“In short, the situation of the Hu family is indeed not good, and the burden on your mother-in-law's shoulders is also heavy. She just married in with a foreign surname, so many hopes can only be pinned on you."

 The old tree stump ignored him and just sighed softly and said: "If you want to understand the affairs of the Hu family, you should, but you need to understand. Once you understand, it is time to take over the heavy responsibility from your mother-in-law..."

 “Are you ready?”

"this…"

From his ordinary words, Hu Ma felt a vague sense of great pressure.

 But there was one sentence that he really heard clearly.

 Yes, the Hu family is also one of the ten surnamed families.

Just like the Tongyin Meng family who drives red lights and green clothes, and the mysterious Zhao family, they also belong to the main family of ten surnames.

 One of the ten most mysterious families in the world.

This level of grudges is so weird and terrifying, how can a little old watcher like me, who has just entered the door, be able to bear it?

All reincarnated people like to make a fortune silently, but the identity of the Hu family seems to push them into the middle of the turbulent whirlpool. I have always been subconsciously curious about the grievances of the Hu family, but such a big grievance, But I really resist it from an instinctual level...

 “Looks like you're not ready yet.”

The senior on the old tree stump seemed to have seen what he was thinking through Hu Ma's expression. He sighed softly and said, "To be honest, I have advised your mother-in-law before not to stick to such a name. If you don't let go, the Hu family will be gone as well.”

“But your mother-in-law's real surname is Bai, but she looks more like the Hu family than anyone else surnamed Hu.”

"She refused to listen to me in the end, so she can only look at you."

"If you are willing, then there is indeed the last Hu family left in the world. If you are not willing..."

　　…"It's a grudge that has been settled."

Hearing these words, Hu Ma also felt a little heavy inexplicably. He was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "I understand what the senior said, but now I will talk about it in detail."

“I don't want to provoke the Meng family, and there is no need to meet them. However, they come from one village to another and hold mirrors in front of them. I can't hide from them. Should I prepare some means?”

"This is simple." The figure on the old tree stump smiled lightly and said, "Let's do this. After I leave, you can dig up a handful of the soil under my feet and bring it back to the village."

“When they come over, put this soil on your heart, and their mirrors will not be able to reflect you…”

"should?"

Hu Ma had something she was afraid to say: 'Senior, shouldn't your tone be more certain about this kind of thing? '

As if he could see what Hu Ma was thinking, Lao Shuzhuanzi smiled lightly and said: "The Tongyin Meng family has many tricks, how can I dare to give you a guarantee directly?"

Hu Ma was also a little helpless and hurriedly said: "Then what exactly can this soil prevent?"

 Old Tree Stump seemed to be a little bit puzzled by this question. He was silent for a moment and said: "Theoretically, various methods can prevent it."

Hu Ma's heart moved, and she suddenly felt a little excited.

Looking down slightly, a piece of dirt can protect against everything. This is much better than the Yin Bone Jade or something...

"If you like it, you can take it all back, although only the first handful you dig out is useful."

The figure on the tree stump gave a soft laugh, which was slowly fading, and said: "In short, I have said it, and I won't say more to you. Just remember, no matter what happens to the Meng family, don't mess up. own position."

“Before others do anything, you are afraid first. This is... too unpromising.”

"Um?"

After hearing this, Hu Ma had more things to ask, but when the old tree stump was speaking, he quietly disappeared, as if he had melted into the old Yin Mountain. The empty ground did not seem like a tree stump had ever existed.

No matter what the Meng family does, they must first stabilize their own position...

Hu Ma thought silently, squatted down, pushed aside the weeds on the ground where the old tree stump had just appeared, and pulled up his sleeves.

I'm actually curious: it's obviously the soil under his feet, but why is only the first handful useful and the second useless?

Then if this handful is a little bigger, will everything in it be useful? If you miss a little bit between your fingers, will it still be useful if you pick it up again?

 I can't think of a reason for the moment. Many things in this doorway seem to be a bit mysterious.

do not care.

Although he couldn't understand it, he was still cautious. He thrust his hands into the soil hard and dug a handful firmly.

　　He wrapped it up in his own coat and put it on his shoulders. Then he took a big step and left Laoyin Mountain furtively, returning to Zhuangzi under the cover of night.

 Stuffed all the soil and the robe under the bed, and asked Xiao Hongtang to help look after it, so that she felt at ease.

"At least this old tree stump senior has promised me that he will take action when the time comes."

He thought to himself: "Of course, no matter what, I have to take care of things myself first, and I can't let my mother-in-law's favor in Laoyin Mountain go to waste."

 He also guessed in his heart, what kind of behavior does this old tree stump have?

 Listening to his words, it seems that he is not that afraid of the Tongyin Meng family, but feels somewhat unwilling to get involved.

Although Hu Ma had never seen it perform magic before, and because the gap between the two sides was too big, he couldn't feel his oppression, but he vaguely remembered these encounters, and always felt that this old tree stump was different from other evil spirits.

When other evil spirits appear, they are usually accompanied by a gloomy wind, and sometimes there is some putrid and strange smell.

But this old tree stump seems to be accompanied by a fragrant breeze...

I can't describe the feeling. It's not the fragrance of perfume, but rather the smell of burning paper from incense candles. It's thick and dignified.

  After all, just by appearing anywhere, the soil under your feet can be infected with a certain amount of magical power...

 …although only the first handful.

With my heart set, I just silently paid attention to the things here.

　　 Knowing that the boy in Tsing Yi started to go to various villages in the red lantern society to find people, Hu Ma was also cautious and paid more attention to this news.

This kind of thing is fair and square. In the name of having a grudge against Master Zheng Daxiang and having just become the shopkeeper, I have a good understanding of the boy's behavior in Tsing Yi.

I knew what they did when they arrived at each village, and also knew that they took some people away indiscriminately after checking them.

Their commotion made all the shopkeepers in the village miserable, but they had nowhere to reason.

The Tsing Yi Red Lanterns were originally not in harmony. Now that those Tsing Yi boys had the power to go to the Red Lantern Club to investigate people, they seemed to take the opportunity to retaliate and angered many people, but they were suppressed by the guardians on the left and right.

Moreover, as the incense master of the Red Lantern Lady Club, Zheng Xiangzhu became the guide of the boy in green in this matter, which temporarily caused his reputation to become even worse.

 “I'm afraid things are not simple…”

After some inquiring, Hu Ma knew that they would come to his village sooner or later, but he didn't know why they came so late.

 It can't be avoided anyway, so let's do it!

Another seven or eight days passed like this, but Zhuangzi finally received a message from a little messenger, so Zhuangzi's people gathered together and waited early in the morning. Hu Ma took a deep breath and ordered the guys:

“Call everyone back and prepare the wine, food, incense and candles. Someone will come to visit tomorrow, so take good care of them!”

　　Although the visitor is a bad visitor, there are still some rules that should be followed.
