Twilight Boundary Chapter 208

Chapter 208: Making trouble with the demons

The yin and filth trembled and slowly raised its head.

That face is illusory, but it can be clearly seen that it is exactly what the Red Lantern Club Zheng Xiangzhu looks like.

 When he saw Hu Ma's face, his expression suddenly became extremely desperate.

The flame in the brazier was blown out, and he saw the normal appearance of the surroundings. He saw that there was only a circle made of scattered rice in front of him, a few little figures made of rattan that could hardly be seen as human beings, an old tree stump, a few A piece of Yin Bone Jade... not even a sacrifice.

Of course, I saw Hu Ma sitting on the slope. This little shopkeeper was young and immature, as if he could be blown down with one breath.

But what seemed to surprise him was that he was not surprised at all. He seemed to be particularly afraid that some incredible idea would become true, but when it did, his heart became numb.

"It is you…"

Hu Ma could hear him saying faintly: "It's really you..."

 “But, how could it be you...”

“Am I surprised?”

Hu Ma also looked at him with a cold face. She had mixed feelings towards Zheng Xiangzhu for a moment. The incident this time was too big. Two people should not have been involved because they were too far away from this level.

 One is myself, and the other is this Zheng Xiangzhu.

This **** guy is also a strange person. How did he gain the trust of the Meng family and shoulder the blame?

At the moment, I felt that there was no point in being angry. I just looked at him with a little helplessness in the absurdity and said: "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get involved in this matter!"

"I just don't quite understand what you are thinking. I didn't kill your uncle-in-law myself, so why are you targeting me?"

　　"Except...who else can I target besides you?"

Zheng Xiangzhu was trembling, but it seemed that because he knew that he had no way to escape, he was more calm than the evil ghost in green.

He just said tremblingly, as if mumbling to himself: "When I fell into the stinking ditch and was waiting to die, I swore a strong oath that I would return wealth to anyone who could save me, and then they The whole family saved me, helped me get medicine, and gave me a bowl of hot soup..."

"This great favor made me vow to make their family rich. Even if they are stupid and greedy, they always feel that I can protect their family with my own abilities."

“But just because of a little bit of greed, Niu Zi ended up in a frying pan and died. How miserable..."

"If you want to say that he is a bad person, then in this family, he is much simpler than my father-in-law and my mother-in-law, including me. He is the simplest one in our family..."

 “What if I don't take revenge?”

He looked up and looked at Hu Ma in a matter-of-fact manner: "If I don't help him get revenge, how will my mother-in-law and my father-in-law see me? How will the people in the meeting see me?"

"But if I want to help him avenge me, besides you, can I also find the two guardians, or the Red Lantern Lady?"

Hearing this, Hu Ma couldn't help laughing and laughed at himself: "So, just because I am the only one you can afford to offend?"

Zheng Zhien wanted to laugh too, but smiling seemed more like crying.

 Yeah, this is the only way I can afford to offend...

 …It's just that now this reason seems like the biggest joke in the world.

“The world is dangerous, but I almost fell into the hands of people like you...”

Hu Ma listened and could vaguely understand what he was thinking, but she was too lazy to really understand it. She just sighed, looked at him, and said: "But this time things have become so big, you should know your end, right?" ?”

Zheng Zhien was stunned for a long time, then shook his head and said: "It's too big, I can't imagine it."

Hu Ma said: "I can't imagine it. It's really a bit big, but it's a good opportunity to see the limits of this world."

“But you know one thing: you can't bear this matter by yourself, right?”

"yes…"

Zheng Zhien sighed softly after a long time and said: "Earlier, there was a charge of evildoers in the court, but I don't know if it can be resolved now..."

"right."

Hu Ma looked at him sympathetically and said, "I'm afraid your father-in-law's family will blame you for implicating them..."

Zheng Xiangzhu seemed to want to smile bitterly, but couldn't. He just raised his head and looked at Hu Ma.

Huma was too lazy to talk to him anymore. He waved his hand and suddenly spit out a True Yang Arrow, which knocked him out of his wits.

At the same time, on the barren hills outside Zhumen Town, the wooden frame and yellow flags set up by Master Zheng Xiang, the stone sacrifices placed, and the dead branches used to make swords were all scattered on the ground, while he just sat there blankly. In the altar of Lingran. Hu Ma was in Laoyin Mountain, and his living soul was blown away with one breath, and he suddenly became sluggish here, like a puppet.

 This is a symptom of spell caster backlash.

It was more serious than the soulless Jianghu people that Hu Ma met in the Ma family ancestral hall. Those people's souls were separated from the body, but they were still there and would not die.

 But because his soul was blown away and he suffered a spell backlash, his whole person instantly lost his life.

The boy in Tsing Yi has also been killed by angry people from all over the country, and the Meng family also left without saying hello. This place has become a forgotten existence. If no one comes, Zheng Zhien will probably be left alone on the top of the mountain to be exposed to the wind and sun, helpless. People care about it until the end of decay.

 But if that were the case, it would be better.

A small sedan and a donkey came from the bottom of the mountain. Sitting in the sedan was a woman weighing almost three hundred kilograms and wearing heavy makeup. She was carried by two skinny sedan bearers. When they reached the foot of the mountain, the sedan bearers lay down on the ground. If she is willing to get up, even if she is beaten to death, she will not be carried up the mountain.

The woman kicked and scolded the bearer very fiercely. The old man sitting on the donkey advised him: "You are still beating people. When is it? Come up and have a look."

“I don't know what big things he is busy with. He has been away from home for a few days. Let's see if I don't give him a slap on the ear.”

The woman felt that she had been wronged, so she had no choice but to get off the sedan, carry the food box on her shoulders, and follow the old man who got off the donkey's back, panting and climbing up the mountain using both hands and feet.

A short barren hill was like climbing to the sky for her. The old man and the woman climbed for half an hour before they finally reached the mountain covered in sweat. Then they saw Zheng Zhien, with disheveled hair, sitting blankly.

 “You are still sitting here, you are a bitch, don't you know what to do next?”

As soon as the woman saw him, she seemed to have gained strength again. She rushed forward and was about to hit him, but suddenly she realized that something was wrong with his expression.

He started crying with a cry. He went up and shook him hard, beating him while crying: "Zheng, don't scare me. Don't let anything happen to you. How will I survive if something happens?"

The old man was also frightened. He hurriedly came up to take a look, and then shouted at the top of his lungs: "Help, help, bearers down the mountain, please come quickly and take my uncle to see a doctor..."

But the bearers at the foot of the mountain had already run away. They were crying and panicking, but they found that there were a few more people on the side of the mountain at some point.

They were actually a few people whom I had never expected. They were wearing soap clothes, swords on their waists, and hats on their heads. They were serving as servants in the government office.

People living in Mingzhou Prefecture have long forgotten that such a group of people exists.

The woman and the old man were both surprised that they appeared here. They were startled for a moment and wanted to shout for help. However, they saw that the leader of the group just looked at the broken and messy altar with a cold face, and then looked at the people sitting there. Zheng Zhien, who was unaware under the banner, had a cold look in his eyes.

Suddenly he pointed forward and shouted: "The demons are causing trouble and driving out ghosts and harming people. Now I have the altar as proof. Take it down for me."

The trembling yamen officers nearby, whose skills had long been rusty, hurriedly took out the chains and tried to put them around Zheng Zhien's neck.

 “Which of you dares?”

The fat woman became violent and started fighting with them. While fighting, she shouted: "Who dares to touch my man? Do you know who he is? He is the incense master of the Red Lantern Society..."

The government officials were even more frightened after hearing this. The old man dared to attack her because of the fierceness of the woman, but he was repulsed for a while.

But when the leader saw this, he gritted his teeth slightly and shouted sternly: "If a demon makes trouble, he must be executed early and the whole family will be executed according to the law. Where do you have the courage to obstruct the official's handling of the case?"

 “Get them together for me!”

This shout immediately frightened the woman and the old man into panic. The servants also reacted immediately and realized that this time was different. They went up and kicked the old man and the woman down, and locked them up together. The shackles were clasped towards Zheng Zhien's neck.

Just when his fingers touched Zheng Zhien's body, he was suddenly startled and lost his voice: "Head, the person is dead..."

"died?"

The head turned around sharply and glanced at Zheng Zhien. He gritted his teeth slightly and whispered: "Lock him up even if he's dead. Put a wooden stick between his legs to make him look like he's walking."

 “How could he die? How could he die now?”

“He has committed such a big thing, and if he doesn't go to the Lingchi Platform, he is not qualified to be buried...”

The officials suddenly understood and were busy taking out various bottles and jars and smearing them on Zheng Zhien's body and legs to soften his stiff body. They also pulled his messy hair even more messy and hung it down to cover it. Look at his livid, pale, lifeless face.

 The iron rod was inserted into his pants and wrapped around his legs, and was pulled by others to make him look like he was still alive and could still walk.

"Let him go, I tell you to let him go..."

The woman and the old man next to her saw Zheng Zhien dead and still being tortured. They felt heartbroken and screamed with all their strength, but the officers smashed all the teeth in their mouths.

In the end, the whole family was chained up and escorted down the mountain. The wooden frame and the broken yellow flag were also carried down the mountain as physical evidence.

When they escorted people through the streets and entered Mingzhou Mansion, I don't know how many people came to look at them. They were both disgusted and surprised. What they hated was those who were affected by the evil spirit. They looked at the monster who was causing trouble in the state government. Beating and scolding.

What's surprising is that these officials still dare to take care of things?

There were four updates yesterday, so I couldn't delay today. I coded all night until dawn and updated!
