Twilight Boundary

After the matter was clarified, Hu Ma was finally relieved a little.

The next day, I had breakfast with Yang Gong and others, and listened to them secretly discussing who would win and who would lose tonight. The people above were busy fighting, and although the people below were under pressure, they There is no shortage of entertainment activities.

Since the first round, some people have been betting on the winner. Now it is the last round. If you don't bet, you will have no chance to play, so everyone is more interested in participating.

"Originally, it's basically whoever calls the formation first has a greater chance of winning."

"But the day before yesterday and the day before yesterday were reversed, but I'm thinking...it's better to bet on the one who calls the formation first!"

"Me too, deposit ten taels of silver."

"It's a last ditch effort, brothers. I bet thirty taels, and we lose."

"... Keep your voice down so that I can hear you. If I can't get the money, I'll suck you dry first."

"..."

Seeing how lively they were playing, Yang Gong followed suit and bet fifty taels, and enthusiastically invited Hu Ma to place a bet as well.

Hu Ma smiled awkwardly: "I don't like gambling..."

"...Give me a bet of two hundred taels, and we will win."

"..."

"hiss……"

Everyone, including Yang Gong and others, were surprised and looked at Hu Ma with admiration. This brother is so loyal to the guild...

Hu Ma was also a little helpless, two hundred taels was nothing, we and the Red Lantern Empress were risking our lives...

A group of people hung out and played cards until dusk. Hongxiang's disciples reluctantly went to guard, and Hu Ma also came to the ring with Manager Xu.

But this time, people came in the most uniform manner. Even Zheng Xiangzhu, who had disappeared for two days without seeing anyone, came over. He was sitting upright under the stage, but his face was still swollen. I heard that she was the mother-in-law of the family. Fanned out.

The Tsing Yi Gang is facing a formidable enemy with a formidable momentum, but the Red Lantern Club is not relaxed either.

Although they lost this time, it was still a draw, but if that were the case, the reputation of the Red Lantern Queen would not be very good.

After all, you usually occupy the best and most blood food mines, enjoy the best offerings, and support the most shopkeepers. However, when it comes to the real seal, you actually have a tie with the Tsing Yi Gang. Then the higher-ups may suspect the Red Lantern Empress. Will his strength be enough?

Food and wine were served as usual, but no one was in the mood to eat or drink.

After the second round of gongs and drums, they heard a silver bell-like laughter from the Qingyi Gang. Everyone who was absentminded suddenly froze and looked towards the ring.

I saw a girl wearing emerald green clothes and a pretty little braid on her head jumping onto the ring.

It was so gorgeous that it made the surrounding braziers look a bit bleak.

The two gangs, most of them were rough old men, saw their eyes light up and were a little stunned.

"Sure enough, the sweet potatoes were burned..."

Hu Ma secretly thought, this girl looks cute and cute, but she is actually very capable, besides...

...Everyone is already married, right? She married her senior brother and became Mrs. Mi Xingkuo.

Just when everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, Diguashao waved her hand and saw people from the Tsing Yi Gang holding her hand in front of the audience...

...a pig?

Those who had just been immersed in her pretty appearance were stunned.

What is such a beautiful girl doing leading a pig on stage?

And it looked like he had just been pulled out of the pig pen. His body was covered in mud, and the stench made everyone in the audience unable to eat.

"The gentlemen of the Red Lantern Lady Club are here to meet you..."

Sweet Potato Shao held the pig, waved his hand to tell the Tsing Yi gang members to leave, looked at the Red Lantern Club with a smile, and said: "I rushed to see Master Tsing Yi and the Red Lantern Lady, and I haven't eaten well for several days. I didn’t even have a meal, and I didn’t even take a shower. I was stinking from all the rush..."

Someone in the audience couldn't help but said: "It doesn't stink, it smells good."

Diguashao smiled and said, "I've taken a shower, of course it doesn't stink anymore. The smell you smell comes from this brother..."

As he spoke, he patted the pig, and the pig snorted.

The audience burst into laughter, and the person who answered the conversation suddenly looked embarrassed.

“Everywhere a conspicuous bag goes, it’s a conspicuous bag…”

Hu Madu thought helplessly, and when he looked at the stage, Diguashao already said with a smile: "When I came here, I just wanted to have a good meal. There is wine and meat in the audience, but what I want to eat most is hot pot. "

"I don't know if any of the gentlemen in the Red Lantern Club would like this. Come up with me and cook some chopstick meat. Look at me, I've already prepared all the ingredients..."

Although the girl looks good and talks well, this is called a formation after all, and the Red Lantern Club was suddenly worried.

"Haha, come on old man!"

At this time, an old voice from the audience answered, and in the crowd, an old man in colorful clothes emerged from the crowd and stepped onto the ring with a smile.

When everyone looked at him, they didn't recognize him. Hu Ma was also a little surprised that he was not the bald shopkeeper he had seen earlier.

"Mr. Fan?"

The people at the table were all old guys, but someone recognized him and said in surprise: "This is the famous troupe leader in the city, and he is also an expert in the art. He was actually mentioned in the meeting. Invited over?"

"Last time they said tricks to kill souls. Is this old man from the trick sect?"

Hu Ma took a closer look and saw that the old man was wearing clothes that looked like those of a folk trickster.

In terms of appearance, it is similar to the previous members of the Tan'er Sect.

I suddenly understood in my heart. It seemed that the Red Lantern Club also realized that this last period was not trivial. Even if they pointed out the bald shopkeeper, they were not at ease, so they simply spent a lot of money to invite an expert from outside. Beat.

Of course, it’s hard to say whether it’s easy to invite or not. Either he spent a lot of money or resorted to some tricks.

"Master, please sit down, let's get on to the pot..."

The sweet potato roasting was very sweet, and it was obviously a fight filled with murderous intent. Although everyone could say some stage words, it was actually very stressful. Only she seemed to be very friendly and enthusiastic when speaking.

As she spoke, she winked back, and someone moved the stove onto the stove, with a pot sitting on it. She and the old man sat down on both sides of the stove.

The people on both sides of the stage began to worry again. The stove was turned up again. Wouldn't these two people want to burn hand-cut meat or something?

But unexpectedly, Sweet Potato Shao invited the old man in colorful clothes to sit down, and said with a smile: "You are an elder, sit down first, and I will boil the meat for you. This meat must be fresh, and, I just like boiled pork belly, it’s so delicious…”

As she spoke, she took a silver knife, turned around, stroked the pig twice, and then inserted the knife into it.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this.

Immediately, his expression became extremely strange. He saw that the sweet potato was burned on the pig, making a wound, and then he cut a piece of meat from the inside and threw it into the hot pot.

And the pig, obviously no one was holding it, and it was not fixed in any way, but it stood there honestly, as if it didn't feel anything at all. It was still sniffing on the left and groaning on the right with its big pig head.

"What kind of doorway is this?"

In the audience, Manager Xu and others also speculated: "Can the pigs not feel pain?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. The Tsing Yi Gang has already hired so many people, and the last ones to come should be more capable."

"It won't be easy this time."

"..."

"What?"

Even Hu Ma couldn't help being surprised when he saw the way the sweet potatoes were cooked.

I came back with the news earlier, and told the left and right guardians in detail about the spellcasting of Digua Shao and her senior brother. Although I could only tell it like a layman, but I also let the left and right guardians understand their story. Three unique skills:

Yellow official paper, calling for souls, and paper money for buying lives.

What he said is what the current Red Lantern Lady will theoretically master. If Erguotou does not provide additional information, the Red Lantern Society will definitely prepare for these three unique skills.

But now that Sweet Potato Grill is used, it doesn’t look like any of these three unique skills...

Is Erguotou talking to Digua Shao about something else again, or is this unreliable Digua Shao something going to go wrong?

When I thought about what the Red Lantern Empress had said to me in person, I suddenly felt a little uneasy and stared at the stage.

When he saw a piece of meat cut out of the sweet potato, the old man in Caiyi's face became a little darker.

He looked at the piece of meat, and then at the pig that seemed to be oblivious. After being silent for a long time, he slowly reached out and stroked the pig's head, as if feeling distressed, and sighed softly: "Girl, you are very sensible." Ah, then I will give you a big piece as well..."

As he spoke, he stroked the palm of the pig's head and pressed it lightly. Then he reached down to the stage and someone handed him a knife.

He took it and cut off a large piece of meat from the other side of the pig. It was bigger than the sweet potato, but not as careful as the sweet potato. He threw the meat directly into the hot pot soup with the skin on.

During the whole process, the pig seemed stunned for a moment, but did not move.

"What a pity this pot of soup..."

The sweet potato roast looked at the soup pot, shook his head and said: "I really plan to eat it..."

As he spoke, he chuckled, then caught the pig again and cut off most of its arm.

The old man in Caiyi's expression was extremely serious, and he was obviously under great pressure, but he slowly took out a few silver needles, inserted them into several parts of the pig, and then cut them bit by bit.

It was very slow, as if it was afraid that if the hand shook, it would ruin the method. When it was cut to the end, I was already breaking out in a cold sweat, but in the end, I still cut off the piece, put it to the side, and gasped for air.

“They were fighting over who could cut off the bigger pieces and render the pig unconscious?”

"No, not only that, but also to ensure that the pig cannot die. Whoever dies under the knife will lose."

"..."

In the midst of everyone's discussion, you and I stabbed each other. The pig was already dripping with blood and it was too horrible to look at.

When Diguashao saw that the old man in colorful clothes could really keep up with him, he suddenly smiled, took out a small silver saw, and sawed directly from the pig's neck. A pig's head was sawed off, and then the saw was thrown aside.

After rummaging around in his pocket, he found a handful of grass and handed it to the pig's mouth. The pig immediately started eating.

The grass he just ate fell off his neck.

The scene was indescribably weird. There was a sudden silence in the place, and even the flames seemed to have stopped beating.
