Twilight Boundary

Chapter 90: Stepping in, taking action, and selling stolen goods (Thanks to the Snow Eagle boss, Silver Alliance)

“Brother, you are so anxious to find me, do you think you have good news?”

Under Hu Ma's gaze, as he called out, the burning of half a pillar of life incense in the furnace suddenly accelerated, and a wisp of fragrance penetrated into the dark red mist like a snake, twisting and rotating rapidly, as if searching for What.

After a while, the scent suddenly became stiff, and Erguotou's voice started to sound. At the same time, the burning speed of the incense gradually slowed down.

Although this was the first time to formally call someone, Hu Ma had also learned how to use this life incense before.

If the life incense is inserted in the incense burner, you can hear the call of others at any time. If it has been connected before, you can call yourself directly. Of course, this requires you to be asleep, so that you can hear the call all at once. Pulled into the temple.

If you are awake, you may feel a slight sensation, but Hu Ma hasn't tried it yet.

Erguotou had only made appointments to talk to him on odd days before, but as long as he was sleeping, he could still call him on non-zero days.

But this kind of abrupt interruption is somewhat rude unless it's an urgent matter.

Now that he heard Erguotou's voice, Hu Ma also knew that the call was successful. He sighed inwardly and said with a smile: "It's not that clear yet, but I do have a little bit of information."

"However, I am anxious to ask you, if we really want to get that batch of blood food, what do we need to prepare before we actually take action, and how can we cooperate so that we can get it more securely and more securely?"

Now, I am almost certain that the batch of blood food is near Zhuangzi.

 But this information does not need to be revealed for the first time. It is better to ask questions.

While Hu Ma acted cautiously, the Erguotou man was even more sensible. He never asked any questions, but said: "Simple, find out the situation clearly, decide on the strategy, and finally, make sure to clear the head and tail after getting it. Enjoy it in peace."

 “Visiting sites, taking action, and selling stolen goods?”

These words jumped out of Hu Ma's mind inexplicably, and he hurriedly said: "Not to mention other things, you have to be careful about your actions."

“Brother, it’s not that I doubt it, but I want to ask, are the people from Tan’er Cult easy to deal with?”

　　　…”

Erguotou was slightly startled: "Those gangsters are doing bad things? Did they really run away from Laoyin Mountain?"

 “It’s almost the same as ten.”

Hu Ma said: "The news is not clear yet, but I can be sure that if we want to securely obtain this batch of blood food, we must confront them."

Erguotou’s voice became calmer and he said, “How many people are there?”

Hu Ma expressed uncertainty and just said: "At least we must be prepared to deal with the entire Tan'er Sect."

Hearing this, Erguotou fell silent slightly, pondered for a long time, and then said: "This requires careful planning. Although the Tan'er sect is mostly wild, but it was able to make such a big fuss in Mingzhou Prefecture back then, its ability cannot be underestimated. ?”

"...What is your shopkeeper planning? How can his two brushes defeat these people?"

　　　…”

Hu Ma listened and smiled bitterly in her heart: "I don't know..."

How could the experienced Erguotou not be able to see things that he could see himself?

Although the old shopkeeper gave his own explanation for not reporting the matter, it sounded very strange to anyone who heard it.

No matter how much you talk, you still can't get through the first key. Is the shopkeeper really so confident that he can deal with the entire Tan'er Cult on his own?

 Or is it enough to add yourself?

"No matter what, it's about the Tan'er Cult and your old shopkeeper with unknown intentions. They still have to hide it from the Red Lantern Club. It only depends on the two of us. I'm afraid it's not safe..."

Erguotou also thought about it and said slowly: "Perhaps, we two brothers need to find a helper."

　　　…”

 “Helper?”

Hu Ma was a little surprised: "Where can I find this?"

 “Of course it’s the white wine lady…”

Brother Erguotou smiled and said: "She has quite a lot of skills. As far as I know, she is not from Mingzhou Prefecture, but she came here to deal with something, so she should still be here now."

“But she doesn’t like to chat, so I called her a few times, thinking she must have heard me but was just too lazy to pay attention to me.”

　　　…”

 “Take the initiative to chat with others?”

Hu Ma was a little surprised: "Then why do I always have to wait until the day of zero to find love?"

Erguotou was also silent for a moment, and said a little awkwardly: "I'm talking to you about business..."

“…But who likes to talk to men in normal times? When I come here occasionally, of course I want to be a bit coquettish with Miss White Wine, and I have to pretend to be a big brother in front of you!”

　　　…”

 “What the hell? This is...”

After hearing this, Hu Ma was speechless. She could only shake her head helplessly and said, "I will continue to inquire about the specific information. There are still too many things to determine."

"However, if we really decide to take action at that time, we should find the helpers in advance. I estimate that the Tan'er Sect will come, probably in the near future."

Erguotou brother laughed when he heard this and said, "Then don't worry."

“I asked Miss White Grape to go out for tea and visit the rouge shop, but she ignored me, but I told her that with this batch of blood food, she would definitely be tempted.”

　　　…”

After explaining a few more details, Hu Ma left the temple. We have already had a good chat with Brother Erguotou. Since good things are coming soon, there is no need to wait for the next day.

 Recently, every night at midnight, everyone goes to the natal temple to wait for the incense stick. If there is news, they will communicate, and if there is no news, they will leave.

 After getting up the next day, Hu Ma then just practiced silently and arranged the affairs in Zhuangzi.

 When you fall asleep, you are the reincarnated person, and when you wake up, you are still Huma.

 Be willing to work hard and love to learn.

 The old shopkeeper promised to supplement the blood food for Hu Ma, which was really a lot.

Although the shopkeeper was never willing to take out the blood food pills, he still had a large bowl of green food every day. Hu Ma ate them all without hesitation and felt the nourishment of his blood.

He had been practicing diligently in the past, and the life incense was consumed quickly. As he continued to practice and contact the reincarnated person, his third pillar of life incense was almost completely consumed, and his Taoist conduct was about to be drained from the three pillars of incense. Falling into the second pillar, life is fragrant.

 But now that I have been nourished by green food, I have managed to keep this third pillar of life-incense. Although the progress of my practice has not dropped, the life-incense has not fallen again.

In addition to practicing, he also took the initiative to ask the guys in Zhuangzi to step up patrols and walk around.

Of course, I also sternly warned you not to take action if you encounter anything.

I know very well that if these guys meet someone from the Tan'er Cult, I'm afraid they won't be able to show off just by looking at the stove and a few handles.

As for the murder case in the village earlier, someone also came to Zhuangzi.

 Humah’s estimate was correct. Suddenly seeing the Tofu Zhao family in Zhuangzi, they were all frightened after such a murderous incident.

People hurriedly rushed to the city to report to the official, but no one came down from the official office.

I think you are not stupid to come here as a government official. You are in such a remote place, and you are close to the edge of Laoyin Mountain. Is there anything strange?

I ran over there, but it was no good. What should I do if I met someone serious and hurt me?

However, the surrounding villagers never regarded the red light cabinet as outsiders. When they saw that the city officials did not care about it, they came to Zhuangzi to ask the shopkeeper to take care of it. Hu Ma saw that this was the matter, but he did not even need to ask the shopkeeper, and he did whatever he wanted. I followed them for a walk.

 In fact, compared to the murder case, the people in the village were more afraid that this case was too serious and that something evil had happened.

 But in fact, they were overly worried.

Huma entered the Tofu Zhao family again. It was still as **** and cruel as last time, but with a more rancid smell.

 But, clean.

 In terms of those evil things, this house is simply cleaner than anywhere else.

The person who taught Taner dealt with the poor Widow Zhao very well, and the shopkeeper also dealt with him very well.

 So, for Hu Ma, he just told the villagers: "Pick up all the broken limbs and burn them."

“Morning and night, come here, burn paper and burn incense, and you will be at peace.”

　　　…”

Looking at the panic on the faces of the villagers, Hu Ma also thought that the Tan'er Cult had already killed two people, and he was afraid they would not give up.

Then he deliberately said: "You don't need to go to the government to investigate this case. It's very simple. Some demons from outside targeted Widow Zhao, sneaked in at night and killed her. Look at that human skin. This is what those people did." Magical and man-made.”

"But this man didn't get any good either. Widow Zhao took his life unjustly and died even more miserably. What is this called? God has eyes and retribution is not good!"

“But we fellow villagers should also pay more attention.”

“We should all be more vigilant about those who are learning evil methods from now on. This matter to the Zhao family is no longer the first.”

"Earlier, a salesman passed by the pole village. He looked thick and big-browed. He was actually a doll seller. He almost lost three dolls to him. Fortunately, I met him and helped them find them. Otherwise, It’s scary to think about.”

　　　…”

The people in the village have naturally heard of this, and they all nodded in panic: "That's right, that's right!"

Some people even said angrily: "In the future, if you encounter these people walking in the streets and dare to enter the village, you will be beaten to death."

Hu Ma was startled. She really knew that they were not joking. When the villagers got angry, they beat one or two people to death and threw them outside to feed the dogs. They were not afraid at all.

He said hurriedly: "That's not necessary. Most of the people are good. They can earn a couple of copper coins by walking around the streets. Isn't it convenient for the villagers? It's just the monsters who get in there who are hateful!"

“Folks, please be more careful. If you encounter anything suspicious, come to Zhuangzi and talk to us.”

　　　…”

The people in the village were immediately moved when they heard the words. The elderly people held Hu Ma's hand and kept saying touching words.

Hu Ma vaguely felt that with the handling of these incidents, she was now famous.

Even, a little older than the old shopkeeper who was unsmiling.

After finishing the matter, Hu Ma also returned to Zhuangzi. After a few days, he felt even more uneasy.

Not only did the guys look around, but the people in the village would also pay attention to the new faces coming in. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be many omissions, but for three or five days in a row, there was still no movement. They knew they were coming, but they didn't come. This calm before the storm is the most painful.

However, things have to be done. Although I don’t quite understand the true intention of the shopkeeper, after having lunch that day, I secretly picked some sesame and walked into the inner courtyard.

He came to the shopkeeper and threw away the crutch in his hand with a smile.

 “Shopkeeper, I am done!”
