Twilight Boundary Chapter 371

Chapter 371: Collect the account books first (third update)

The mine boss's story, even when it came to the bizarre mineral vein, was not as good as the last story about being poisoned, which made Hu Ma feel even more stressed.

Where does the Shou Sui Man's ability come from? It's nothing more than reincarnation and death, practicing martial arts, and finally building a strong body that is invulnerable to poisons and hard to be hurt by weapons. Especially those who have revitalized the five internal organs by taking poison. Just think of it as a seasoning.

But the mine boss surnamed Zhuang said that he was just scratched by a dead crow sent by the shaman, and he ended up like this. How can people not be surprised?

Slowly exhaled, and then said slowly: "Then what happens next?"

“You should know the shaman here, but you didn't ask? Who is the one who sealed the door, and what's the purpose?”

 “Then I'll ask.”

The leader of the village mine sighed lowly and said, "I do know the shamans here. I used to go to their village to exchange for some food, which is worthy of the brothers of the Wu clan leader in their village."

“Some of them like to use Black Tai Sui to refine Gu, and I try to make it as convenient as possible. If they want things that are not usually used in the mine, I give them to them.”

"When this incident happened, I immediately went to Heiyan'er Village over there, hoping to ask an acquaintance to help me remove the poison. If that didn't work, I could also ask a middleman to come forward and make an appointment to deal with the poison. People come and ask what's going on.”

"What?"

 When he said this, he paused for a moment, and then whispered: "The people I sent out will be back in half a day."

Zhuang Kuangdu hesitated for a moment before nodding: "I checked little Ruanzi's body, and there was a piece of cloth from the Wugong Clan on him, tied around his wrist. This is a reply from the Wugong Clan, indicating that he agreed. Will come as soon as possible."

 “Only a shell remains like a human being…”

"Then...then his head rolled down, and there were bugs crawling out of it..."

 “Yes...it's okay!”

 “…I pushed him…”

"only…"

“As a result, someone used this vicious method to harm me just because I sent a letter…”

"It was almost dusk when he came back, and he hadn't eaten yet. He seemed to have been hungry for a few days. As soon as he came back, he went to the stove, picked up the steamed buns and put them into his mouth one by one. Fill it in, it doesn't feel hot at all, and then…”

Hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions. Not only Hu Ma and others, but also the meat cutters, it seemed that even though they had seen it with their own eyes, they still felt shuddering when they heard it again.

Zhuang Mining Leader said in a low voice: "The inside has long been eaten up by insects. Maybe he will be dead when he returns to the village."

　　At this point, it was hard for him to continue and looked at the person crowded at the door.

That man had a sturdy build. Others were holding curved cleavers or forks, but he was holding a kitchen knife and wearing an apron, like a cook.

As he spoke, his face also looked a little embarrassed, and he whispered: "I really don't know what the bewitcher is after. He is a good guy, a hard worker, and willing to work. After working for these few years, he has saved a few taels of silver. I'm getting ready to go back to the village to build a small house and get a wife!”

Seeing that the surrounding atmosphere was getting more and more depressing, Hu Ma frowned and said, "In other words, you still don't know why the other party bewitched you?"

When the leader of the mine village looked over, his face turned blue, and he held on and said, "It's really not my fault. I saw Ruan Laoliu picking up the big bun and eating it. It was hot to the touch, but he kept going. , stuffed four or five..."

 “I, I'm afraid he will choke, so...”

"But after waiting for the past few days, there has been no sign. The person guarding outside has become more and more fierce, and he has directly closed the mine."

"Even the convoy that we usually send food to every ten days has disappeared. Fortunately, there is still some food in the mine, so everyone will not be hungry. I want people to go out to inquire, but I am also afraid of the poison outside, but I didn't expect this. At that moment, you guys came over..."

As he spoke, he felt a little ashamed and said to Hu Ma: "Honestly, seeing that you guys came in so well, I thought you were in the same group with him...

Hu Ma snorted and said, "We were able to come in because there was an old horse crossing the road..."

As he spoke, he suddenly came to his senses and said to the person at the door: "Go and see if my horse is dead?"

Just now, these people regarded Hu Ma as an enemy and were full of hatred, but now after talking for a long time, they found that this was not the position, so some people hurriedly ran over, and came back after a while, shouting: "It's almost there, I still have one breath." Gone…"

 “Then he's not dead yet…”

Hu Ma nodded and said: "I don't understand the rules of shamans, but this person's behavior is probably not that particular in the world..."

"Just now in the woods, he tried to use his bewitching dog to bewitch us. We noticed something was wrong and called out, but no one answered, and we didn't give him any face."

 Speaking of this, I couldn't help but think of that lively and cute little girl wearing silver jewelry.

 I just don't know where she comes from?

“No matter what, Guan Hu is very capable. If he can get into the valley, it means he can get out. He is a great savior..."

The head of the mine listened, but he didn't know what to say. He just hurriedly raised his hands and said: "In our mine, there are hundreds of lives of young and old men, and it's all your responsibility to take care of them..." This guy…"

Hu Ma was not at all happy about being praised. He just glanced at the seemingly honest and honest boss of the village and mine, and secretly cursed Lao Jianghu in his heart.

 Hearing what Zhuang Kuangdu said, everyone suddenly looked at Hu Ma.

Just now, Hu Ma showed his ability. They all saw that Hu Ma was very capable. In addition, he came here on behalf of the Red Light Society above, and he was very impressive. When people were panicking, they really gave up hope. It was placed on him.

 “Let's not say more about anything else.”

Huma, however, met the eyes of so many people without commenting. She changed her voice and said, "It's been so long since the wine has been served, why can't I see any dishes?"

“We have been traveling for such a long time, so let's arrange some food!”

"Yes Yes…"

Hearing this, the head of the mine in the village hurriedly winked at the people beside him. Those people were a little embarrassed. Listening to their whispers, it seemed that their rations were getting less and less day by day and they were reluctant to waste it.

But the manager of the mine scolded him: "If you save these few words, you won't be able to survive for another day or two. Please serve the stewards from above first."

“…If it's really not enough, then white, green, or even red ones can be made and served!”

“How can a person starve to death in a blood-food mine?”

The people under my command were busy. They had enough manpower, but soon a drawer of big white steamed buns and several bowls of meat were brought out. The two jars of wine just placed on the table were also real wine and could be drunk. mouth.

The head of the mine was a sensible person. After arranging the meal, he took the initiative to leave, saying that he still had other things to arrange.

Hu Ma also tilted his ears slightly and listened for a moment to make sure no one was eavesdropping. Then he turned to Lao Baanpan and said, "Brother, look at this mine, what is it about?"

The old abacus first scooped some wine from the jar and smelled it, then poured it into the bowl with confidence, took a sip, nodded, and said: "Teach the young ones first to be good. , hot dishes can be eaten, such as these freshly steamed buns and stewed meat."

 “If it's cold, you should check it more often to avoid getting tricked.”

“But you watchers are different from others. I once heard someone say that some watchers were poisoned in their stomachs, so they mixed a large bowl of arsenic and drank it to kill insects..."

“Of course, it also depends on the level of both parties. The one named Zhuang obviously does not have such profound abilities, and the Gu he encountered was obviously more powerful..."

After finishing showing off, he said to Hu Ma: "It's not like Zhuang is lying. Of course, it's precisely because they are encountering this problem that they are so easy to talk to now. Otherwise, just to seize this mine, they will kill us." There's blood everywhere.”

“He just wanted to test you first to see what your abilities are. If you are not as good as him, you probably won't be so honest about the mysterious mineral vein.”

 “That's true.”

Hu Ma also saw it and said with a smile: "The key is that it happened suddenly. Who knows how much truth or falsehood this brother said? With just a few words, he started fighting with the unknown witch outside. Unfortunately, Not a loss?"

"Of course we can't let them use them as a shield to fight to the death with the people outside for nothing, but let the people in this mine take advantage in vain..."

The old abacus slowly took a sip of wine and said: "However, if we encounter this matter now, it doesn't make sense if we don't care about it. After all, we will come here and take the responsibility. If we don't show up now, in the future I'm afraid no one will convince us.”

Hu Ma took a deep breath and said, "That's exactly what you want..."

 Lao Abacus smiled and said, "Brother Hu, what do you think is the first important thing for us to do when we get here?"

Hu Ma also looked at him and said with a smile: "Clear the account?"

 “Ouch…”

 Lao Abacus immediately gave Hu Ma a thumbs up and said with a smile, "I knew it was right to come with you."

"That's it. Since the mine leader said this, we don't care whether he said it is true or false. Taking over this mine is the only serious thing."

“If it's true, we'll take over and understand the situation before we can discuss how to deal with the witches outside, right?”

“If it's false, hehe, he had to give such a reason first, can he blame us?”

 “Taking advantage of others' danger? It's really a bit shameless...”

Hearing this, Hu Ma couldn't help laughing and said, "We, our fellow apprentices, are all from the village. We are honest people and would never do such shameless things. But Uncle Xu said, let's After we come out, we will listen more to your opinions..."

“...Then let's do this. They cut out a lot of Blood Tai Sui and Golden Thread Tai Sui. They probably haven't had time to transport them out yet, right?”
