Twilight Boundary Chapter 188

Chapter 188 The Empress said

 “Wait!”

Seeing what Master Zheng Daxiang said, the boys in green smiled and took the chains and stepped forward, as if they were going to take Zhou Datong and the others away.

These people didn't understand what was reflected in the mirror, but being stared at by these ghostly people made them feel cold. Facing such a strange person, they were at a loss what to do and turned to them in panic. Hu Ma, who was standing aside, looked over.

Even Zhou Datong, who was so courageous, was clearly panicking now.

But before the boy in green clothes actually walked in front of them, Hu Ma suddenly stood up and stood in front of him.

　　Have no choice but to stand up.

During this period, he has been paying attention to the affairs of these boys in green clothes and knew that they made a lot of noise in Mingzhou City, and many people were taken away after they looked in the mirror.

Even in the villages under the Red Lantern Festival, it was the same. Many clerks were taken away after being photographed, and once they left, there was no movement again. No one asked, no one knew where they were going, and they didn't even know whether they were alive or dead.

Even if I asked the Red Lantern Lady, she didn't get any news.

 He didn't know what was going on with Zhou Datong and others and why they were photographed.

They are obviously innocent and ordinary children from the village. How can they be so different from other people?

It's inevitable that the man surnamed Zheng did something about it?

The eyes suddenly looked at Zheng Xiangzhu, his eyes were cold and stern, and he also gritted his teeth. No matter what this Zheng did, he would never let them take away Zhou Datong and others.

 How can we be better off once we go with them?

I was thinking anxiously in my heart, but there was a smile on my face.

Staring at Master Zheng Xiang, he said: "We don't dare to stop Mr. Qingyi from doing his errands, but in this village, all of them are fellow disciples who work for the Red Lantern Lady. You just take a look in the mirror and then take the person away. No matter what, you have to do it first." Can you give me an explanation?"

 “Explanation?”

When Master Zheng Daxiang saw Hu Ma standing up, he also smiled faintly and said slowly: "Master Qingyi has ordered us to carry a licensed negative mirror in Mingzhou City to find people with bad virtues. When the mirror shines on people, the negative virtues will show themselves."

“Anyone who has reached the red line must be taken back for questioning before making a decision.”

“Mingzhou City, the Red Lantern Club, and even the Tsing Yi Gang did this, and you want to explain it?”

 “Red line?”

Hu Ma's so-called explanation was originally just to delay time, and he didn't expect him to really give himself any explanation.

 But after listening to his words, I couldn't help but feel moved. I glanced at the bronze mirror and saw a faint red line marked on the edge of the mirror.

I didn't understand the so-called bad moral character and didn't care about it at all. I just followed the words immediately and said: "I don't dare to say what Master Qingyi ordered, but if I read it correctly just now, they left That red line is still far away..."

This is true. Among these people, Zhou Datong was the only one who came close to the three-foot red line, but only barely.

As for Zhou Liang, he was still half a foot away, and Zhao Zhu and Li Wazi were even further behind.

Zheng Xiangzhu's expression did not change after hearing Hu Ma's words. He just said lightly: "Master Qingyi is kind and only allows those who have reached the red line to be found."

"But we naturally have to be careful when doing things, and take away those who are close to us to avoid any oversights."

"Since you have not reached it, what are you afraid of? I just asked you and let you go back."

 “Come back, uncle…”

Hu Ma secretly cursed, thinking anxiously in her heart, but her smile became more natural and friendly, and she hurriedly said: "I'm just afraid that things will be too troublesome, and it will also affect Master Qingyi, and several senior brothers will also be affected. If you are not sure, , just take the photo again..."

“If we really reach the red line, why should my senior brother take action? I'll tie them up myself and send them over…”

“But taking people away in such a daze, Zheng Xiangzhu, you are also a member of the club after all. When the empress knows that you did this to our own guy..."

“…I'm afraid you won't be happy, right?”

He was talking nonsense, so naturally he didn't really expect these words to scare Zheng Xiangzhu.

 Others don't know what's going on, and they only think that Master Zheng Daxiang is using Master Qingyi's power to dominate, but Hu Ma knows that there are shadows of the Meng family behind this matter. How dare the Red Lantern Lady dare to intervene?

Just delaying time, already thinking about how to get out of trouble, he took Zhou Datong and others, beat Zhuangzi and hid in Laoyin Mountain.

 The position of shopkeeper in this red lantern club is no longer needed.

The lives of Zhou Datong and the others are still at stake. Anyway, they have learned a lot of skills. At worst, they will find an opportunity to find a new job again.

The only worry now is that facing these boys in green, Zheng Daxiang Master, and the mysterious evil ghost mask on the sedan chair, which seems to have the same nature as the lantern of the Red Lantern Lady, how many brushes can these people have? rush out?

While Hu Ma was thinking about this, the boys in green clothes seemed to be a little anxious.

 They were already dissatisfied with the people in the Red Lantern Society. Moreover, after running so many errands, they had never encountered such a troublesome thing.

Everyone winked, sneered, and shook the chain in their hands. If it weren't for Zheng Xiangzhu blocking the front, they might have rushed directly to grab people.

 “Well, that's right…”

But no one expected that Zheng Daxiang Master kept looking at Hu Ma, as if he was also thinking slightly.

　　At the end, he sighed in a low voice and said to himself: "After all, I am also a member of the Red Lantern Club. I recruited these guys myself, so how can I really not care about them at all?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Hu Ma expressionlessly, and when he turned to look at the boys in green clothes, there was already a smile on his face. He said somewhat flatteringly: "Brothers, let's go?"

"What?"

When Leng Buding heard this, not to mention the boy in green, even Hu Ma and the people in Zhuangzi were greatly surprised.

What kind of medicine is being sold in this gourd?

Hearing this, not only did no one dare to feel relieved, but they also thought that the man named Zheng was going to take action immediately, and their hearts were in doubt.

"I am not kidding."

Master Zheng Daxiang bowed deeply to the boys in green and said, "During this period of time, we have taken care of many people in Mingzhou City and the major blood food gangs, and we have also taken many people back. .”

“Although the guys in this village are indeed a little taller than ordinary people, there is still a big gap between them and those who have exceeded the red line.”

“There are already a lot of people over there now, and they can't even be tried, so there's no need to go to such trouble.”

“Several senior brothers have worked so hard to see that all seventeen Zhuangzi have been taken care of. There is no reason to create many branches here, right?”

“Besides, there's no one who's taller than three feet, so there's no need to invite Mr. Qingyi over.”

Seeing him say this, the boys in green eyes widened and the chains swinging in their hands slowly stopped.

 Their abilities are not necessarily lower than those of Master Zheng Xiang, but after following Mr. Qingyi for too long, they are no longer different from ordinary people. They are not very smart in words and deeds. Therefore, along the way, they mostly rely on Master Zheng Xiang's ideas.

Moreover, the master of Zheng Xiang deliberately made friends with them and served them very comfortably when traveling, sitting and sleeping.

At this time, after hearing what he said, he actually nodded slowly.

On the other hand, Hu Ma was ready to shovel the mud and sand on their faces with one kick, but who would have expected that they would actually leave.

Did you really let Zhou Datong and others go?

This change is not surprising, but rather strange.

Seeing Zheng Xiangzhu make a gesture of invitation, the boys in blue also carried them onto the sedan chair and were about to leave. His mind was racing, guessing what Zheng Xiangzhu was thinking.

Suddenly he felt something in his heart. He took two steps to catch up with them and said with a smile: "Master Qingyi, walk slowly, brothers, walk slowly, I will see you off..."

However, he suddenly thought that the man named Zheng might be delaying the attack. He said he was about to leave, but turned around and started to take action.

 The closer I am to others, the better I can display my skills. But at this critical moment, I can't keep distance from them.

The guys were smart enough to pick up their knives and forks and followed behind.

But even Hu Ma didn't expect that she had escorted Zheng Xiangzhu and the others all the way out. Seeing them leaving Zhuangzi and heading towards the entrance of the town, they actually just wanted to leave without any sign of taking action. It was actually a bit surprising, and she felt like saying no in her heart. Comes out weird.

“Shopkeeper Hu, are you worried that I will take away your man by force?”

At this time, Zheng Xiangzhu just clasped his hands behind his back and walked slowly beside the boys in Tsing Yi. With a smile on his lips, he looked at Hu Ma: "Even if you think that these guys of yours are being photographed, they are What did I do?"

Facing his gaze, Hu Ma's heart sank slightly, and she just looked at him silently.

 “This is normal, I would think so too.”

Zheng Xiangzhu didn't wait for his answer. He just smiled lowly, as if he was whispering to Hu Ma. They seemed to have a very close relationship.

Even some of the clerks in Zhuangzi thought that it was because Hu Ma had a good relationship with Zheng Xiangzhu that he helped to intercede and let Zhou Datong and others stay.

 But what Zheng Xiangzhu said surprised Hu Ma for a moment: "But actually, I didn't do anything."

"Even if I had the ability, I would only use it on you. After all, I really want you to have a taste of the oil pan, but I am not interested in these guys."

 “They were really exposed, and they really met the standards to be taken back.”

"That…"

Listening to Zheng Xiangzhu's words, Hu Madu was stunned for a moment, and found that he didn't seem to be lying about this matter.

 But if this is the case, why is he so kind and really wants to let Zhou Datong and the others go?

Sent outside the town, the ghostly aura surrounding the boys in blue has become increasingly intense and cold, and the sedan carriage they were carrying trembled slightly, like a bride getting married at night.

At this time, Hu Ma had no reason to continue following, and he could see that they really didn't intend to take action, so he had to stop. However, the doubts in his heart made him look at the backs of these people, and he did not turn around for a long time.

Zheng Xiangzhu followed the group of boys in green clothes, walking further and further away. When he was almost out of sight, he suddenly turned his head and smiled at Hu Ma.

Looking at the smile that seemed to have succeeded in a trick, Hu Ma was suddenly startled, and a thought flashed through her mind:

"broken!"

I want to add more, can you count the votes for me so that it seems reasonable for me to add more?
