Twilight Boundary Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Sister Xiaohe

"this…"

Hu Ma is lying when he says he is not tempted. Now that he has obtained this method, he originally wanted to temper his body quickly, and he was just about to get some blood food!

 But after listening to what Erguotou said, he immediately thought of another question. After pondering for a moment, he asked truthfully: "Before I came to this village, you had this idea long ago?"

I feel a little strange in my heart, and it shouldn't be like this.

This Erguotou man didn't even know that he would come to this village earlier.

 Unless he is the mustache manager?

 …Could it be that the gift given by my second master was given to this boy?

Just when he was thinking about something, Erguotou suddenly laughed after hearing his words: "How can I be so capable of calculating?"

"Moreover, if I were to directly arrange your place, I would not arrange it in such a risky place. Otherwise, if something happens, you wouldn't hate me? Even the white wine lady will be afraid of it. Me."

“We have a status like this. We don't know each other, and we have to gain each other's trust. It's too late to show favor, so how can we dare to make so many calculations?”

"this…"

Hu Ma heard that he didn't seem to be lying, so he smiled and said: "I didn't win the lottery in my last life, so I was scared."

“If you treat it as a lottery, I'm afraid it will fail.”

Erguotou smiled and explained: "There's nothing wrong with this matter. Whether we can make money or not depends on our luck."

"In the future, if you have more contact with reincarnated people, you will understand that in the Red Lantern Society, including in Mingzhou Prefecture, there are many channels for money, and there are also many opportunities to make a fortune. In other words, there are many opportunities in the world. , there are many similar opportunities.”

"But such a transaction, even for us reincarnations, must be done when the opportunity is right."

"After you went to this Zhuangzi, I secretly learned about the situation of the Zhuangzi and the shopkeeper named Wu, and sensed such an opportunity."

"Now that you have learned the method, with your current position and the information I have now, we can work together to investigate. If that batch of blood food is really swallowed by him, we might not be able to make a small fortune. fiscal."

"Of course, it depends on whether you are willing to do this business and take the risk."

“Let's agree in advance that we are just guessing. After working on it for a while, we found that the blood food was indeed stolen, and it is possible that it was all in vain.”

“Why does it sound like that? There are banks everywhere, we just want to see which one has our hidden clues..."

Hu Ma complained in her heart, but she really thought about the matter seriously. Several possibilities flashed through her mind, and then she slowly spoke and agreed: "Okay."

 “Let me pay attention first.”

“But let me tell you in advance, I am a timid person and I don't have much ability. I can't do anything too risky now.”

Erguotou smiled and said: "You just need to pay attention. If there is this batch of blood food and the opportunity is right, just get it. If not, just find other opportunities to cooperate."

Hearing what he said, Hu Ma felt relieved.

It's good that the initiative is still in your own hands. After all, no one has conclusive evidence, so I just pay attention first.

Whether or not to really take this action is something that requires long-term consideration. According to the current situation, I am still not sure about this decision.

 But having said that, he did feel that there was something weird and strange in this village.

There are a lot of mysteries in this old shopkeeper's behavior that people can't see through.

In this previous incident, many of his close disciples died tragically, and even his own daughter was injured. She sounded like a victim, but thinking about the temperament of the old shopkeeper, Hu Ma also felt that he might not be able to handle the trap. The matter of apprenticeship comes.

 After all, whether it was Xu Ji or the man who was bewitched by a ghost and hanged in the wilderness, he remained indifferent, as if he didn't care at all.

 Since he asked for a favor to stay, he wanted to atone for his sins, but looking at him, he was not diligent, and he didn't even seem to be that loyal to the Red Lantern Lady...

How come his daughter has always been hidden and never showed her face?

Of course, these doubts are just hidden in the bottom of my heart. I still need to arrange a certain amount of work every day and step up my practice.

 As time went by, his left hand became more and more active and looked different from before.

Now that he has stopped taking blood food pills, he only relies on the green food in Zhuangzi every day. His body is full of blood, and his bowel movements often show signs of deficiency.

At this time, he still feels cold all over.

Of course, now that the whole body is cold, it is not a big problem. All it takes is slight adjustments to the fire and things will get better.

What is surprising is that even though his whole body has become cold, his left hand is still warm and full of vitality.

If you want to describe it carefully, is it a dead person with a living left hand grafted on it?

 …ugh, that's a bit scary.

 But this weird description does fit his current state.

The more he became aware of the wonder of this Shouman method, the more motivated Hu Ma was to practice. However, due to the limited three pillars of life incense, he could not practice without restrictions, otherwise all three pillars of life incense would be consumed. What should you do if something happens?

This is what makes Huma different from other living people.

 You only have one life incense stick, you can use it all, anyway, it will gradually increase back. Flax has three pillars, but it needs to be calculated carefully, after all, it will never rise again.

 In the final analysis, it is still blood food.

If, as the Erguotou brothers said, I could get this blood meal, not only would I have nothing to worry about, but my moral character would also improve.

Having made up my mind, I went about my business every day and paid attention to what was going on around me.

On this day, he had just finished his work and came to the front yard. He saw that the sun was about to set and it was time to prepare for the night watch.

But when I took a quick look, I saw that none of the workers in the outer courtyard had lit their lanterns. No one was working in the stables, and there was no food in the trough.

Just when I was feeling strange, I saw that all the waiters in the yard were standing in unison, as if they were stiff and motionless, looking straight towards the old shopkeeper's house. inside the inner courtyard.

This strange scene instantly shocked Hu Ma. Something happened?

In this village, we deal with the evil spirits around us every day. Sure enough, there is something powerful and they are here to kill them?

He was surprised and wanted to take a step back to figure out what happened.

But at this moment, he heard the sound of "gudong" swallowing. Following the eyes of the guys, he saw that in the inner courtyard where the old shopkeeper lived, at some point, there was an extra man of about seventeen or eighteen years old. girl.

She wore a black floral coat, a pair of white silk trousers with a slim waist and wrapped legs, and an emerald green jade bracelet on her white wrist. The whole person looked elegant, graceful, capable and delicate.

 At this time, he was sitting next to the stone bench, making tea for the old shopkeeper.

 Because of her appearance, it seemed that even the gloomy scene as dusk was approaching suddenly became a little brighter.

"female…"

"…woman?"

 How could a woman come out of Zhuangzi?

 Still such a beautiful woman?

 It has been a long time since I came to this world, and my flax has become numb.

He sealed the stove and accumulated yang energy. Although he was what his mother-in-law called a "half-yin body", he ate blood every day to make him scream. Of course, he was not as taboo as Erye and other teenagers of the same age. , but my heart is also greedy.

 Just what he saw in daily life, men and women were all wearing rough clothes and black trousers. Their luster had been worn away by life, which really forced him to be a gentleman.

 Beauty was considered when having enough food and clothing, and all he saw during this period were just "people".

 But now, a woman actually appeared in front of him.

 And she is really very beautiful, with delicate features, slender figure, and radiant beauty.

This is why I can't blame the waiter in the outer courtyard for not being able to pull his legs out when he saw it. Even Hu Ma couldn't help but take a second look.

However, after all, with the experience of his previous life as a foundation, Hu Ma calmed down quickly. Seeing these guys in the outer courtyard, they were already a little out of character, and the straight eyes were even more rude. He should also persuade and train him. Two sentences.

 But when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly realized that these young men were not taught by so many teachers as he was, and their desire for women was natural.

 Just seeing it a few times now is already a blessing that I have never experienced in my life.

 This bad person cannot do it.

So Hu Ma simply pretended not to see it, turned around and walked back to his hut, but unexpectedly, the shopkeeper spoke:

 “Huma is here, come and see her.”

 “See what?”

Huma was a little surprised, but she had to listen to the shopkeeper's instructions, so she packed up her clothes and walked through the waiters.

Suddenly hearing Hu Ma coming, none of the guys who were usually in awe of him took the initiative to run away. But seeing Hu Ma get the opportunity to enter the inner courtyard and see the woman up close, they were all envious. No, I just want Hu Ma to take a piece with me.

But Hu Ma couldn't do this. He just kept his eyes straight, entered the inner courtyard, and sat down opposite the shopkeeper.

  “This is my daughter, whose name is the character he.”

  The old shopkeeper pointed and motioned to give Hu Ma a cup of tea, and said calmly: "Although you and I don't have the title of master and apprentice, after all, I taught you, and I am also instructing the postures. It is not an exaggeration to call me teacher."

"From this point of view, He Ni can be regarded as your sister."

“She is in poor health and doesn't go out much. Now you know her well, and she will need you to take care of some things in the future.”

Hu Ma quickly stood up and bowed, saying, "Hello, Sister He."

The woman also nodded to Hu Ma reservedly, holding her hands in her hands, and poured tea for Hu Ma.

When the guys outside saw it, their eyes were full of envy.

Unknown to him, Hu Ma is also wondering in her heart, is this the shopkeeper's daughter, who has been hiding in the house and peeking at her?

She never went out before, why did she come out now?

Just because a woman showed up, why don't you give me a monthly pass?
