Twilight Boundary Chapter 63

Chapter 63 The evil in the well

Driving at night in the wilderness is the most frightening thing.

It was especially quiet everywhere, no one was on the road, there were many graves in the fields nearby, and willow branches were fluttering.

Hu Ma was a timid person in his previous life. Before this life, he had been harassed by evil spirits and did not dare to go out. Now he has learned Taoism, but he has never had such an experience. Even when he patrols at night, there are many people following him, and he mentions The lantern of the Red Lantern Queen.

Now it was the first time for him to drive at night in such darkness, but he felt at peace...

 …After all, I have a kid with me!

Gathering up the courage, he hugged the knife tightly, picked up Xiao Hongtang on his back, and strode forward.

I patrolled the surrounding area at night on weekdays, and I was still very familiar with this rural road. I gradually turned around the foot of a mountain, and after walking three or four miles further along the path, I could already see the dark winter at the foot of the mountain from a distance. The village was lit with fire.

 I think Xu Ji and the others have already arrived.

The village is not that leisurely and relaxed, and it has to be bright at night.

Hu Ma stopped outside the village and frowned. There was nothing there outside the scope of their night patrol.

 In fact, although he accepted this problem, he didn't know anything about the task of this problem.

 The old shopkeeper said that there is an evil spirit that has been lingering there for a long time. What is it?

"ah…"

While Hu Ma was thinking about it, Xiao Hongtang, who was next to him, suddenly said sharply: "They went to Sister Jing's place."

Hu Ma was startled for a moment: "Eh? What sister Jing?"

“There is a poor sister there who hides in the well and cries every day.”

Xiao Hongtang looked up at Hu Ma and said, "Xiao Hongtang went over to talk to her, but she ignored her."

Hu Ma was even more surprised: "When did you go there?"

 “I go there often…”

Xiao Hongtang said: "Brother Hu Ma usually ignores Xiao Hongtang, so Xiao Hongtang plays around, but there is no one around to play with Xiao Hongtang, so Xiao Hongtang can only look for friends around..."

He said with some humiliation: "But Xiao Hongtang doesn't know anyone around her. Sister Jing in the west doesn't talk to Xiao Hongtang. Master Shi in the south gets angry when he sees people. That family in the north loves to bully people... "

"you…"

Hu Ma was a little surprised when he heard this. Xiao Hongtang is quite wild?

But there was nothing we could do about it. No evil spirits were allowed to stay within ten miles of Zhuangzi, so they were all driven away in the name of the Red Lantern Lady.

Some time ago, Xiao Hongtang couldn't live in the house, so she ran out to play all day long, and she actually became familiar with the surrounding area.

He felt a little moved in his heart, held the knife in his arms, sat down, and said to Xiao Hongtang: "Go over and take a look, only look from a distance, don't get close."

“Look at those people, are they bullying you, Sister Jing?”

 Xiao Hongtang had already received Hu Ma's promise of Qing Shi'er, and immediately nodded vigorously upon hearing this.

 A little red shadow shot forward and quickly disappeared into the night.

Suddenly, he was the only one left around him. Everything was dark, except for the inexplicable wind whirling by him.

The flax felt cold all over his body, so he silently hugged the knife in his arms tightly.

With a deep voice, he said to the surrounding night: "I'm just passing by. I'm on the same page as everyone else. Don't mess with anyone!"

As he spoke, he took out half of the knife and placed it across his knees.

I don't know if it's any use or if anyone heard it. Anyway, the wind around me seems to be lighter.

If someone hears it, he hopes that this sentence will have an effect, but he does not want to add unnecessary details.

There is no shame in talking to oneself if no one hears it.

After waiting for a cup of tea, Xiao Hongtang quickly ran out from the direction of the village and anxiously said to Hu Ma: "Brother Hu Ma, they are really bullying Sister Jing..."

"They poured something very smelly into the well, used old objects to beat Sister Jing's hair, and used knives to chop off the edge of Sister Jing's well. They, they even formed a circle, spitting fire at Sister Well, and wanted to Burn her..."

As soon as Hu Ma heard this, he was sure that the evil spirit the old shopkeeper was referring to was indeed the evil spirit in the well.

I don't know if it was the person who died after jumping into the well, or what grew in the well, but that is undoubtedly the core of this problem.

It seems that Xu Ji has found a way to deal with her, and he doesn't know when he will succeed.

What should I do now?

 He lowered his head and glanced at the knife in his arms. He had already made two plans when he came out alone.

 Either, you have a tough fight with Daoxing and go over to rob him?

 Either…

He quickly made a decision in his mind, took out a paper bag from his arms, and slowly opened it.

Xiao Hongtang didn't know what it was at first, but as the paper package opened, her eyes suddenly lit up and she stared straight at it.

Not only her, but also the dark night around her seemed to be filled with joy.

In that paper bag were a few pieces of dark meat.

This was cut from the piece of Qing Tai Sui that the Second Master left for him. However, although this kind of Qing Tai Sui was very exciting, it was not enough, so Hu Ma also took out a piece of blood food given by her mother-in-law. Pill, squeezed out the blood, and poured it on the Qing Tai Sui.

As a result, Qing Tai Sui will smell like blood Tai Sui.

 There is a professional term for this: fooling around.

 And this was what Hu Ma had scribbled out when he went back to his room when he left Zhuangzi.

If he goes to fight with a knife, then Xu Ji has an old item in his hand, so he may not be able to **** it away from him, and his true nature may be exposed. In addition, if you want to win, you must win thoroughly, so that the old shopkeeper has nothing to say and honestly passes on the secret to himself.

“Xiao Hongtang, take these things and go around for a while!”

Hu Ma thought about this, no longer hesitated, handed it over directly, and said to Xiao Hongtang: "Don't eat it secretly."

"That…"

When Xiao Hongtang saw it, he was stunned for a moment. He swallowed and shook his head: "If you can't turn around, someone will rob Xiao Hongtang."

“Around the village, Xiao Hongtang can deliver food to you because her mother-in-law is watching and no one is robbing her.”

 “Here, they will all come to **** Xiao Hongtang...”

“It doesn't matter, let them grab it. Run faster. If you are about to be caught up, throw a piece away...”

Hu Ma warned seriously, then looked up at the village where the fire was still shining: "It's best to throw it next to the village!"

 “Go on, don't be afraid!”

At this time, in the village at the foot of the mountain, Xu Ji asked the guys to put a few torches around. The dark wind blew around, making the flames flutter and dance. He was holding a mahogany sword and staring at the wet well mouth. , said loudly.

 The guys around me were so frightened that their hearts were beating out of their chests. They closed their eyes and were running around in a hurry.

 Some of them were scraping their knives against the surrounding walls, making the sound of fighting.

There are also people who just work hard and hold their breath in their throats, ready to spit it out at the mouth of the well at any time.

Xu Ji's two followers shouted loudly at Li Wa, who was crying, and told him to take a jar of blood and pour it into the well.

 Shadows of people were shaking in the surrounding houses, and the people in the village were watching with fear. They didn't know what the madness of this group of people from the Blood Food Society was.

Earlier, the people in the village wanted to invite them over, but except for the evil spirit in the well, they didn't think it would be a troublesome thing to do. Now, they came over in the middle of the night.

 But, who is a serious person who would think of provoking something in the well in the middle of the night?

Some people had come out earlier to scold and stop them, but seeing that they were young, but all of them looked fierce, and some of them had guys in their hands, these honest villagers did not dare to provoke them, and they just stayed at home, shivering. .

 “If it can be done, it can be done...”

At this time, Xu Ji had already gritted his teeth and secretly emboldened himself.

 Every step he takes is carefully considered.

Have people scrape the edge of the well with a steel knife. Of course, they are scraping stones now and pouring things into it, just to force the things in the well to come out.

I have just succeeded once, and I clearly saw a strand of wet hair curled up and about to be pulled into the well.

But the old thing in his hand was really powerful. When he struck it with the sword, the Xingzi shrieked and shrank back into the well.

To be on the safe side, Xu Ji asked other men to stand around the well.

These guys haven't mastered the postures yet, and of course they don't know how to do tricks like True Yang Arrow. They won't know how to master it. As long as they hold their breath enough and spit it out at the first sign of trouble, they can also borrow the ones in their stoves. A strong fire will drive away the evil spirits in the well.

 In this way, he has set up a dragnet that prevents the person from escaping.

 The old shopkeeper's method of keeping the old age is undoubtedly his own.

 “Try harder!”

Thinking of this, he became more courageous and shouted to Li Wa: "If you keep nagging and dawdling, I will throw you in!"

Li Wa turned pale with fright, closed her eyes, touched the edge of the well, and raised her hand to pour in.

Xu Ji has also tensed up his mind. At this moment, the things in the well will definitely be forced out by them.

 You have to know the right moment, just one sword strike.

 That thing can be killed with one sword strike!

 But at this moment, success or failure was only on a thin line. At some point, a dark wind suddenly blew in the village.

Around them, along the well, there was originally a dark wind, which was caused by something in the well, but for some reason, at this moment, the wind suddenly became several times stronger.

And it didn't come from the well, but rather from outside the village. The wind blew in, making it bone-chilling.

The torches they had placed around them were all blown out suddenly, and the surrounding area suddenly became eerie and full of ghosts.

Li Wa screamed in fright and fell to the ground, spilling the liquid in the jar all over herself.

Others didn't have time to scold him, they all felt chills all over their bodies, and there seemed to be endless strange sounds in their ears.

The cold air penetrated into the body, and it seemed as if the eyes were dazzled.

It is faintly seen that outside the village, the shadow is as if it was shaking the demon wind.

Of course, what they couldn't see was that a little girl in red clothes was running lifelessly in front of her, with a bunch of dark and strange-looking things behind her.
