Twilight Boundary

Chapter 537 Reasoning Hall Official

 Outside Zhuangzi, a black sedan chair and a dozen knights on horseback came together, causing ghosts everywhere to cry, and there were gloomy movements for dozens of miles around.

But just when they were still three miles away from Zhuangzi, they suddenly heard a strange sound of Suona blowing and gongs banging in front of them, and a group of figures suddenly emerged from the grass next to them. .

The sedan was carried by two sturdy yellow leather men. On top of the sedan sat an old lady in blue who was wearing flowers all over her head. She was drunk from eating and drinking, with a piece of egg peel hanging from the corner of her mouth. Holding the cigarette pole, he shouted carelessly:

 “Stop!”

"Where are we going? It makes the ghosts and gods uneasy and the people uneasy. But don't you know that people still have to work in the fields when the sun shines?"

　　　…”

"Um?"

The black sedan stopped. The people in the sedan, the maid who was following him, and the general on the horse all looked at each other with a look of confusion. The person holding the lantern next to him could not help but shout: " Be bold and dare to block the noble's path..."

"…What do you do?"

　　　…”

I shouldn't have asked the latter question at first, but I couldn't help it. It was really weird that this thing was blocking the road.

 “For what?”

Grandma Qi Gu was suddenly furious. She banged the cigarette pole on the armrest of the sedan and said, "Grandma Qi Gu, I'm here to reason with you!"

It was okay for a group of people not to listen, but after hearing it, they became even more confused. However, a somewhat unbelievable voice sounded vaguely from the black sedan: "So, that... person actually found you like this..."

  “…Come to represent Hu…to reason on his behalf?”

　　　…”

“What’s wrong, Grandma Qi can’t be reasonable?”

The night wind seemed to have become much quieter. The people in the sedan were still surprised, but Grandma Qi Gu was a little angry. If you ask for anything else, Grandma Qi Gu would not care about it because of her big heart.

 But you are going too far to say that Grandma Qi is unreasonable.

Because our seventh aunt, Grandma, moved to this place a few days ago and lives by "reasons". How many of our neighbors believe in us?

But after listening to Grandma Qi's words, the people in the sedan stopped talking and seemed to be thinking about something quickly. General Tianming on the other side looked down at the black sedan. His expression turned slightly cold and he was obviously a little irritable.

He slowly pressed his horse, took a few steps forward, and said in a deep voice: "We have no intention of disturbing the people, and we don't want to bump into the Xian family. We just want to go to the village in front to find someone."

"The red lantern hung in the village was owned by the Red Lantern Lady. It was not a place of incense for the immortal family. Since the immortal family was afraid that we would make too much noise, we put out the lanterns and went to the village to look for people. Okay?”

 “What about the one under the Red Lantern Lady’s hands?”

When Grandma Qigu heard this, she became a little impatient and said, "The Red Lantern Lady is our little sister."

"You came to this place and talked about the rules, but you only behaved for a few days. Now you go around killing people and grabbing food. How many people have you violated and how many rules have you broken?"

“Everyone in the village scolds you, and doesn’t even leave life-saving food for you. It’s just that my seventh aunt is kind-hearted and doesn’t care about you. But since we are here today, we won’t give you face.”

“If you say it can’t be done, then it can’t be done. Wherever you came from, go back to where you came from!”

　　　…”

"you…"

General Ming suddenly frowned after hearing this, but the person in the sedan spoke tremblingly: "Very good, is this how you reason on behalf of the Hu family?"

"You...since you have taken on this mission of reasoning, don't you even recognize me?"

　　　…”

"Eh?"

Grandma Qi Gu stared at the sedan with her little mung bean eyes, hesitated for a long time, and said strangely: "Is this person crazy?"

“You are in a sedan chair and you don’t even lift the curtain. How can I recognize you?”

　　　…”

The people in the sedan seemed to be deliberately humiliated when they heard this nonsense. They were so angry that they were speechless.

But when he saw that he could not figure it out clearly, the Tianming General next to him had a cold expression on his face. He suddenly shook the reins of his horse, and his tall horse drove directly forward.

This horse was several times taller than Grandma Qi's. The darkness of the night was approaching, and she was immediately under great pressure. Grandma Qi's face changed with fright, and the soles of her shoes were pulled back. When the people in the sedan saw this movement, they were even more excited. I was shocked.

But seeing that the destined general was about to ride directly in front of Grandma Qi Gu, behind Grandma Qi Gu, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew over, and in the dark night, a man wearing red clothes and two braids suddenly appeared. The little girl is here.

The key is that this little girl was carrying a huge ghost-headed sword. She arrived in front of her in a flash, and presented it to Grandma Qi who was sitting on the sedan next to her: "Hey! It's for you."

Grandma Qi Gu was startled by the rude guy on the horse. She also remembered Hu Ma's previous warning. If she met someone who didn't listen to her, she should go back to the village to get the knife. However, the other party came in a hurry, but she was in a hurry. For a while, I couldn't get away.

When she saw Xiao Hongtang being delivered to her, she was overjoyed and hurriedly reached out her hand to catch it. However, unexpectedly, the knife was too heavy and she couldn't hold it, so it fell to the ground.

With a "chi" sound, the wooden sheath that was half covering the blade was separated, but the blade was inserted straight into the ground next to it. For a moment, the blade made a "buzzing" sound, and even the black bone held in the ghost head at the handle shook, and in an instant, evil energy overflowed.

The face of General Tianming suddenly changed, and he suddenly raised his sleeves to cover his face. The black sedan chair, the maid who followed the sedan, and the subordinates of General Tianming were all frightened by the evil aura coming at them.

It was as if there was some kind of evil spirit crying and howling in his body. The flags flying behind him were trembling, and the horses he was riding on stood upright.

 “How could there be such a vicious thing?”

The destined general was frightened, his eyes were red, and he reached for the weapons on the side of his horse.

 “Stop!”

But at this moment, in the panic, the person in the black sedan suddenly screamed. Her panic seemed to be not only because the curtain of the sedan was shaken by the evil spirit, but also because she saw the little man who came to deliver the knife. Hongtang seemed to have lost a bit of his soul.

For a moment, her legs felt faintly weak, and she had the urge to rush out of the sedan and kneel forward, but she was not completely sure yet, so she managed to hold on, but the courage in her heart was really dissipated. Empty.

When he spoke again, his voice sounded anxious and fearful, and he shouted loudly: "Let's go, retreat quickly, don't be rude!"

"What?"

The destined general turned his head violently and looked at the black sedan in disbelief, his eyes filled with anger.

 “I said, let’s go!”

The person in the sedan also lost his grace and looked over through the curtain of the sedan: "Have you forgotten what you said before coming to Mingzhou?"

The destined general stopped talking. Liangcai slowly closed his eyes. As if he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, he finally reined in the horse's reins and slowly rode towards the dozen riders. Wave your hands.

Then without saying a word, he allowed the horse, which had finally been calmed down, to slowly turn around and hump him, bit by bit, staggering, towards the depths of the night.

 “Eh? Gone?”

Grandma Qigu on the sedan chair was startled for a moment. She glanced curiously at the group of people leaving and waved the shoes in her hands: "Thank you for walking fast, or else I would hit you with the sole of my shoe."

The sedan and the man on horseback also came with majesty and silence. After walking for three or four miles, someone finally spoke slowly and broke the oppressive atmosphere. General Tianming, listen. The voice seemed normal.

 Only three words: “Why?”

 The people in the sedan were silent and seemed too lazy to pay attention. After a long time, they said, "Why?"

 “You are a noble person, and I am just chosen by the Truth Religion.”

General Tianming intentionally or unintentionally sidestepped his horse and approached the sedan. His eyes seemed a little cold. He looked at the top of the sedan and said slowly: "You are supposed to be aloof, from a wealthy family, and you are extremely accurate in seeing things."

“But how come I’ve been in Mingzhou for so long, but all I see is that you’re afraid of this, that, and everything. You can’t do things that should have been agreed upon a long time ago?”

　　　…”

“Are you blaming me for not stopping you?”

The person in the sedan took a long time to answer, and with obvious displeasure in his voice, he replied in a low voice: "But in your eyes, that is just a little spirit, but you don't know that she came to reason on behalf of that person! "

 “If a reasonable person doesn’t make sense to you, then he’s trying to catch you.”

　　　…”

After hearing the word "catch a sword", the destiny general paused slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "I come from the Truth Religion, and I have always maintained enough respect for the masters in the sect. I also know that you are here Wait for an expert here to speak..."

　　…But his arrogance is too big.”

　　　…”

Sensing his dissatisfaction, the people in the sedan fell silent for a long time before sighing: "Actually, I don't know why he is so patient..."

“I can understand him being reluctant, asking for help, even complaining, and losing his temper, but why does he just refuse to show up?”

"Not only are you waiting impatiently, but so am I. There are even three uncles and the one they have worked so hard to invite to Mingzhou. Every day I wait, I don't know how much patience it takes..."

　　　…”

General Tianming listened and laughed, but said nothing. However, the people in the sedan seemed to be gradually getting angry: "And we are willing to wait because we all know his grievances and are willing to let him go." …”

“But now, he has given away the position of the Reasoning Hall Officer so easily..."

“He has no idea what these four hall officials represent. It even means that he is too immature and not qualified to pick up that thing..."

　　　…”

　　After talking about it, even the Tianming General was a little surprised by the intensity of her tone. He opened his mouth slightly and wanted to speak, but heard the voice of the person in the sedan suddenly become heavier:

“Stop complaining and do your thing. We also need to see him as soon as possible and let him understand something..."
