Twilight Boundary Chapter 267

Chapter 267 The Ghost in the Top Hat

 “Why would he ask that?”

Hu Ma was stunned for a moment. The first greeting he received was really unexpected. Why was he focused on whether he would ask Miss Red Wine for help?

The key is to be yourself!

That thing that I don't know what it is is chasing me!

I was thinking a little in my heart, and soon came up with an idea, and said calmly: "Of course not."

 “I was entrusted by someone to come here to deliver a message to Miss Red Wine.”

After a pause, he added: "Of course, this letter is very urgent to be delivered to Miss Red Wine. From what I hear, brother, you also know her? Can you call her for me?"

"We are all hanging out in the same place. I don't believe you even if I don't know you..."

The other party sighed and said: "Since you are sending a message, I will help you find her, but you will definitely not be able to call her today, so you tell me first!"

“Who asked me to look for her, and what letter did I send?”

Hearing this, Hu Ma was a little surprised again: "Can't call today? Why?"

The other party sighed and said: "The pig she raised ran away again, and she went out to chase the pigs. I don't know that the animal ran away for hundreds of miles at this moment..."

 “Raising pigs? The pigs ran away?”

Hu Ma was confused when he heard this. Did you, the reincarnated person, come to this world to do animal husbandry?

 The most important thing is, which serious pig can run hundreds of miles?

 For a while, I felt a little weird about the style of the Anzhou Reincarnation Organization, but after thinking about it secretly, I still directly stated my purpose.

He had considered this issue when he had earlier agreed to deliver this letter to Miss White Wine. Reincarnated people are cautious by nature, so when they suddenly arrived in a strange place and had to deliver a letter to a person they had never met before, it was impossible not to be wary.

What if the other party is fake? Anyway, the code name of the reincarnated person is chosen by himself. The person who connects for the first time can say whatever he wants to say?

But Miss White Wine said that after arriving in Anzhou, you can rest assured.

 The reincarnation organization here has been cooperating for a long time and has been operating in Anzhou for a long time, so it is trustworthy.

 This was also the first time he contacted the reincarnated person in Anzhou, and he directly stated the reason why he was looking for red wine.

Of course, you don't need to be so careful when making contact, but Miss White Wine still left the most crucial code for checking when sending the letter out.

 If you get it right, you can trust it.

Huma also asked how far this trust goes.

Miss White Wine's answer at the time was: “I trust you with my life!”

Thinking in his mind, he slowly said: "Then please tell her that I was entrusted by Miss White Wine to deliver a letter to her."

"What?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other party was surprised first.

The lazy attitude just now disappeared suddenly, and the voice suddenly became more dignified and serious: "Are you from Shangjing?"

　　'This is not…'

Hu Ma didn't expect that he would ask this, but after thinking about it, she just said: "The other Miss White Wine didn't say anything. She only asked me to send this letter. Miss Red Wine will naturally understand."

The other party also heaved a sigh of relief and stopped asking. Instead, he became more serious and said, "If that's the case, then that's a neglect, brother."

“My code name is Shao Daozi, and I am an old acquaintance with Miss Red Wine and Miss White Wine.”

 He first gave his code name and then said: "I will find a way to inform Miss Red Wine about this as soon as possible."

“She will come to talk to you by this time tomorrow night at the latest.”

 'Have to wait another day? '

Hu Ma was startled, but she didn't say anything. She just whispered, "Yes."

“It's just that the letter is urgent. Brother Shao Daozi, please inform her as soon as possible.”

After the two of them agreed, Hu Ma left the natal temple. Instead of continuing to sleep, she slowly opened her eyes.

On the bed, Xiang girl was huddled in the corner and sleeping, breathing heavily, and the room was extremely quiet.

 There was only one oil lamp, which was lit on the table and gave off a faint light.

The reincarnated person can keep thinking clearly in the natal temple, but if he exits the natal temple, he will often be in a trance and fall into a deep dream first. Therefore, if he has something to think about, he usually withdraws from the natal temple. After the temple, I woke up first.

“Is the other party not living in Anzhou Fucheng, or is he really looking for pigs?”

 I thought about it silently for a while, but I couldn't think of any ideas.

 The first one is a matter of distance.

Not everyone can be like Miss White Wine and have the ability to call from a long distance. There are many people with great ability, but their moral conduct has not exceeded the three pillars of incense.

Just like in Mingzhou, Brother Erguotou is capable of raising a red lantern queen, but his skills are limited to three pillars, and he cannot call over a long distance... Of course, it may be that he usually overacts, and he can't call. Pretend not to be able to.

 Although the reincarnated people are all in Anzhou, they are not necessarily gathered in Fucheng.

 It is also possible to hide in a certain town, a certain government, or even a certain village outside the city.

The person codenamed Burning Knife may also need to move a certain distance before he can successfully notify Miss Red Wine.

 The other is that you cannot call someone who has not been connected before, unless the other party enters the natal temple.

The other party cannot hear you at all. But if they have been connected, even if the other party has not entered the natal temple, they can still feel it.

Of course if you want to have a conversation, you still have to enter the natal temple.

 In any case, I can only wait for one day.

 It stands to reason that I am in trouble now, so of course the sooner the better.

But the situation is like this. After I sent this letter, according to Miss White Wine, the Anzhou Reincarnated Organization should give me some compensation. Then it would be logical to tell me the help I need.

 But now, the principal has not yet been contacted, so he rushes to talk about his problems, which is strange, and neither party feels too comfortable.

However, fortunately, when the other party heard Miss White Wine's name, she suddenly became much more polite.

It can be seen that she does have a lot of face here, which makes Hu Ma feel relieved.

 Just wait for one day!

While I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt a slight chill in my body.

He raised his head suddenly and saw the oil lamp on the table. The light was slowly turning into a green color.

I was suddenly slightly surprised, and with a silent movement of my body, I ducked onto the bed.

He gently patted Xiang Yatou awake, and then reached out to cover her mouth.

The girl Xiang woke up and was startled at first. Then she saw Hu Ma's face clearly and nodded vigorously to show that she understood.

Hu Ma quickly got out of bed, took out a few sticks of incense from the bag at hand, and lit them by the window.

 Him and Xiang Yatou have encountered this situation several times.

The body is slightly cold and the color of the oil lamp changes, which means that the thing is coming soon.

Hunting the incense quickly, Hu Ma leaned gently against the window, borrowed a crack in the open window, and opened it to the outside.

The place where they hid earlier was either a ancestral hall or a private home. They knew something was coming, but they didn't see it.

 Now that I am in an inn and in the city, I just happen to take a look.

Sure enough, after lighting the incense array, it only took about half a cup of tea. Hu Ma felt vaguely that his eyes were dazzled. He saw that on the road in the city outside, a thick darkness enveloped him, and he heard a vague and illusory sound in his ears. The sound of chains dragging.

His whole body was transformed from reincarnation to death, and he watched quietly without making any movement.

I saw darkness flowing forward along the straight streets of the city, followed by a figure wearing a high hat on his head and dragging something with a chain in his hand.

The thing was tall and looked vague. He was stiff, dragging the chain, and walked over from a distance little by little. His legs did not move, but seemed to be sliding on the ground, and walked straight from one end of the street. come over.

 Wherever I passed, the entire street became extremely quiet. No chickens or dogs were heard, and there was no movement at all.

 The people around seemed to have stopped breathing and became less human.

 Hu Ma frowned slightly and paid attention. On the other side of the street, he saw two watchmen carrying lanterns approaching.

They seemed unable to see what was coming from the other side, nor did they notice that their lanterns had turned green.

The two sides are walking opposite each other, and they are about to touch each other at first sight.

Hu Ma also held his breath, wondering what would happen if a living person collided with this thing?

As I was thinking about it, I saw the two sides getting closer and closer. The lanterns in the hands of the two watchmen had turned into a miserable blue color, but they didn't notice anything.

And the gong in their hands was about to be struck at this moment, but when the gong mallet hit the surface of the gong, it made no sound. At the same time, the thing wearing the high hat, Already passed them by.

 No, it should have passed through their bodies.

The two watchmen immediately froze on the spot, their faces turned green, and they kept their feet raised and their mouths wide open.

 Such a weird silence lasted for several breaths, and the thing wearing the high hat moved away little by little.

 In Hu Ma's room, the oil lamp on the table has returned to its normal color.

 The bone-chilling coldness slowly faded away.

The two watchmen also sneezed suddenly and continued walking forward, beating the gong and shouting loudly:

 “It's three o'clock in the morning, everything is fine...”

 Everything around him became normal, and the sound of **** and dogs barking could be heard in the distance.

The sound of shaking rats and willows also penetrated into my ears.

This town seemed to have finally come to life again after that thing passed by.

 “Gong…Gongzi…”

 The fragrant **** the bed hugging the quilt did not dare to call out softly until this moment. She was obviously a little frightened.

 “It's okay, I've escaped.”

Huma sighed lowly and comforted her.

 But I couldn't feel relaxed at all. I had tricked the other party earlier and gained peace for two days.

 But now, the other party finally reacted and turned around again, looking for them to find Anzhou.

I really need to contact Miss Red Wine as soon as possible and wait for her to help...

Throat is uncomfortable, it hurts like swallowing a razor blade
