Chapter 249 Beggars Gang
“You'll just have to fight hard if you really can't do it…”
On this side, everyone was shocked when they heard what Hu Ma said. However, after some discussion, including Agu Zhang, they all sighed: "If you can avoid it, you should avoid it."
“Then Cui Ganniang has been operating on Pingnan Road for so many years, how could she not have any foundation?”
"This time the matter is revealed, her little fate is not guaranteed, so this old thing will definitely move out all his family assets and fight with us."
Now after a lot of hard work, it is already dawn. Everyone has been frightened and tired all night, and now they are exhausted.
So, they simply turned east and went to a city adjacent to Dongchang Mansion. After entering the city, they went straight to the horse and mule team, spent a lot of money and hired four good horses. Two more carts were hired specifically for the tired people to rest.
But steward Zhou knew that the situation was critical, so he simply and shamelessly borrowed one hundred taels of silver from Hu Ma.
He went out in a hurry, but he also wanted to prepare something and do a big job.
This is how they play the game. Without adequate preparation, many skills cannot be used at all.
About half an hour later, everyone had left the city and was on the road again, just to go as far as possible. However, while they were in the city, they already vaguely felt that something was wrong. Once they came out of the city, it became more obvious.
“It seems that it's not easy for us to escape...”
Looking back from a distance, you can see a beggar's figure on the roadside not far away.
Some of them were squatting lazily under the tree to catch lice, and some were holding dog-beating sticks and looking at them lazily.
Huma and the others drove away, and then they threw their legs and ran. When they stopped, these people kept their distance. When they looked at them, they turned away their heads and wanted to talk to them, but they were immediately wary. He ran away, looking like dog skin plaster.
Everyone knew in their hearts that Cui Ganniang suffered a loss and retreated, but her disciples and grandsons all followed her.
“The Beggar Gang has a large number of people, and they are very good at sneaking around and keeping an eye on them. Now that they have targeted us, we may not be able to escape..."
The beggar, who usually no one wants to look at, now makes people feel a deep pressure.
Butler Zhou also glanced at the beggars coldly. Since entering the Li Mansion, he has been a decent person for decades and has no blood on his hands, but now he has murderous intentions, but he also understands , even if you kill these beggars who are following you, it will be useless.
“Hey, they won't make it easy for us, and we won't make it easy for them.”
Turning around, he seemed to be relieved and said: "I just borrowed money from my benefactor, and also went to the **** agency and asked them to deliver a letter to Dashitou Cliff, specifying the money to be sent to the government. The master here."
"However, I know the rules in the house. Even this letter will be difficult to get directly into the hands of the master, but at least it can distract them and make them uncomfortable for a while."
“The other party must not dare to let this letter be sent out. They have many disciples and disciples, so they can handle it.”
Hu Ma also said in a low voice, "It's a pity that we are still far away from Anzhou. Otherwise, as long as we make this matter bigger, Cui Ganniang will be able to walk around without food. She looked at But I'm extremely afraid that this will be revealed.”
“It'll be good when we get to Anzhou.”
Steward Zhou nodded and whispered: "As long as you get to Anzhou and are close to Lingshou Mansion, there are many ways to do it!"
“Then we'll have to wait until we're stable!”
Hu Ma glanced at him and stopped discussing. Instead, she turned to look at Aunt Zhang and said, "Agu, what do you think?"
“Does the method I mentioned work?”
Ever since Hu Ma raised this proposal, Aunt Zhang had been thinking hard. Now when Hu Ma asked, she said with some worry: "I have never encountered such a thing before. Are you sure you can invite that person to come over?" Are you sure she is really willing to help you?"
Hu Ma nodded and said, "OK."
Aunt Zhang thought for a while and said, "She won't ask for high offerings from you, right? These evil spirits..."
“…not very reasonable!”
Hu Ma said: "That's not possible. Theoretically, I have already given this offering, and the person I want to invite is exactly when I need face and reputation, so I don't dare to be too willful."
Aunt Zhang thought for a long time before finally nodding her head and saying, "I guess you can give it a try."
"But shopkeeper, you must be careful. This is your first time in the altar, and you have to invite a spirit again. This is more danger than danger. If the person you invite is easy to talk to and capable, then just pay it back. "
“If you have a bad temper and you invite her here unexpectedly, your opponent may not be able to cope with it and you may become a human being first.”
“I know all this.”
Hu Ma heard Aunt Zhang's worries, presumably because she herself had suffered such a loss, so she smiled at her and said, "I just ask Aunt Zhang to teach me how to raise an altar to invite spirits."
This can be regarded as a hopeless solution.
Along the way, I followed Aunt Zhang, watched her ward off evil spirits, and learned a lot about this and that.
If compared to other sects, now I can be regarded as an apprentice who has learned many recipes from a doctor, or a stove-maker who has practiced several techniques with a master. What I want to learn now is to follow the ghost sect. The most important step in the early stage is to raise the altar to pray for the spirit.
When it comes to time, of course I am very nervous. It is a big deal to call on the spirit for the first time.
But I have the skin of the Red Lantern Lady... No, the life-saving incense given by the Red Lantern Lady!
I'm burning incense and asking you to save my life. Are you embarrassed not to come?
Normally, after burning this incense, the Red Lantern Queen would help him deal with Cui Ganniang and the others, but Hu Ma is not so confident in the Red Lantern Queen now. Although she built a temple, she is still essentially a little girl raised by Erguotou...
I just used this half of the incense to invite her to come over, but I don't know if I can deal with the evil demon on the Pingnan Ancient Road.
But raising the altar to invite the spirit is different.
Ghost walkers can invite spirits to come by setting up the altar, and they can also use the altar to better control the evil power.
"I set up the altar first and then burned the incense. She shouldn't be so cautious..."
“If that doesn't work, ask Xiao Hongtang to raise her arms and show her the green cloth?”
“…Of course, this last method is a guarantee of a guarantee and a trick of a trick. It cannot be used easily. It is better to talk about feelings with the Red Lantern Queen first.”
"However, when you teach people to set up an altar, you also have to help the Dharma protectors and prepare to take over the altar. Is this what the master does for the apprentice in the ghost sect?"
Thinking about it, Hu Ma also looked at Aunt Zhang and said seriously: "Auntie, do I want to be your master?"
There was a smile in his words, but he said them sincerely.
If it is true that the descendants of the Hu family worshiped ghosts as their teachers, then the cause and effect would be huge.
But Hu Ma didn't care about this at all. He just wanted to be a disciple of others. What's more, he also knew the problems Agu Zhang was facing now. It was not a disadvantage to have a name in advance.
"oops?"
When Agu Zhang heard this, her face immediately turned red and she waved her hands repeatedly: "If you don't hit the mark, I will take away your apprenticeship."
"There is nothing we can do about teaching you how to set up the altar. I will teach you how to set up the altar and recite the incantation, and you will sit on the altar, but I will also be watching from the side. If it really doesn't work..."
She paused slightly, with a hint of regret and determination on her dark red face, and said, "I still have to invite him."
“It's my life anyway.”
This statement makes everyone feel a little depressed.
Only Hu Ma's mind changed a little, and she had several countermeasures. If she could cope with it, of course she had to cope with it. If she really couldn't cope with it, she relied on Shou Sui's ability. If she wanted to leave, the other party might not be able to stop her.
With the excuse of going to Dongzi Li's house to report the news, I might be able to scare her.
Of course, there is no other way. It would be easy to leave on your own. Agu Zhang, Xiang Yatou, Handlebar Style, etc. might all suffer.
Even Butler Zhou next to him was silent for a while, then turned to look at Hu Ma.
After thinking about it, he handed over something: "The benefactor took a risk for my lady. We will remember this kindness. Although you didn't accept this thing before, I still give it to you now!"
"It's too dangerous for you to stand up for the first time. This thing can save your life in critical moments."
“Copper coins for life?”
Hu Ma was startled when she saw it. This was the life money Butler Zhou paid for selling himself into the Li Mansion, and it was also a treasure that could be used as a substitute for death.
Earlier when he was in Zhuangzi, he wanted to give it to himself, but he refused, but now he gave it to him again.
This time he was not polite, he took it casually, and said with a smile: "Just give me this copper coin? Old sir, you haven't told me the jobs I asked you about before..."
"ah…"
The old housekeeper suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said, "I've told you how to use the Li family's silver needle to pierce the soul, what else do you want to learn?"
“Disguise, ventriloquism, and things like making people unable to become ghosts…”
Hu Ma said: "If you are learning something, who wants too much?"
“That's okay…”
Steward Zhou was hesitant and couldn't catch Hu Ma's sincere eyes. He wanted to say it or not, so he briefly talked about these tasks.
At this time when everyone was under great pressure after being targeted by the Beggar Gang, they did not expect that they all acted quite relaxed. Even the handlebar type and the two waiters felt a lot more relaxed.
But at this time, they saw more and more beggars following them, and the carriage they had just hired from the city felt something was wrong. Seeing that it was getting dark, they quickly sent someone to come over and say something difficult to Hu Ma and others. Author:
“Several bosses, you...have you provoked the beggar gang in the city?”
“I saw they were following me, and I was a little scared.”
“We just help people drive cars and earn some money for our efforts, but we don't dare to participate in the grudges between you..."
Seeing them like this, Hu Ma sighed and said, "In that case, you should stay away first!"
As he spoke, he glanced at the beggar behind him, then glanced at the surrounding mountains and rivers, turned to Aunt Zhang, and said, "Let's fight with those people right here?"
