Twilight Boundary

"What the hell?"

Looking at the owner of the village and the mine who bowed to the end with a look of relief on his face, and the meat cutters around him who couldn't help but get a little excited, Hu Ma suddenly felt that the development of the situation seemed to be different from what he thought...

Even Zhou Datong, Lao Abacus and others next to them realized something was wrong and looked around curiously. The tense atmosphere just now could no longer be maintained.

"First of all, if you say this in a situation like this, it puts me on a high pedestal and I can't get down."

Hu Ma slightly raised his voice, not concealing his inner vigilance, and said: "To be honest, I am here to check the accounts. I only have this ability, but I don't dare to show off. You guys first tell me what is going on. Don't you guys?" Have you offended the witches outside?"

"It's all about making a living, who dares to offend them?"

The head of the mine at Nazhuang sighed when he saw that Hu Ma didn't know how to appreciate it. He felt less confused and said slowly: "In the past half month, a lot of things have happened in the mine. At the beginning, It’s that mineral vein…”

"master……"

Suddenly, the two disciples behind him suddenly called out, looking a little nervous.

Not only them, but also some of the meat cutters who looked like bosses and stewards were slightly moved.

After hearing this, Chief Zhuang also paused slightly.

The old abacus next to him coughed immediately when he saw this. Hu Ma understood, and sneered first and said: "Boss Zhuang and Mine, we see that everyone is in the Shousui family, so we respect your age and speak to you properly. , why are you so hesitant?"

"Shou Sui sect respects master and follows the rules. You are talking here, but the disciple's throat is not clean. In our sect, it is disrespectful to the master..."

"..."

Unexpectedly, Hu Ma spoke directly to his face, causing the two apprentices beside Mr. Zhuang to change their expressions slightly.

But the leader of the mine, Zhuang, understood that Hu Ma was very capable and had many unique skills. Looking at his inheritance, it seemed that he had a good background and must have many rules. If he acted like this, he would really lose the face of his master.

He paused slightly and said, "It's true that I'm overthinking it. Don't blame me for staying up late."

"But it's not that I want to hide it. It's actually these strange things, starting from this mine. It's actually a bit weird..."

"..."

Hu Ma glanced at him and sat down on the table next to him. He raised his hand to take a wine jar, poured half a bowl of wine and asked the old abacus to sit down next to the table. Then he said to the leader of the village and mine. : "Speak slowly, I have plenty of time."

When others saw this young man being so careless, they felt a little uncomfortable, but they couldn't help but accept it.

After all, they had just joined forces and Hu Ma had already won. They could be dissatisfied with his age, but they could not be dissatisfied with his ability.

The head of the village mine sighed lowly and said: "I am not an inexperienced person. I have been guarding this blood food mine since I learned to master it. I have seen and eaten all kinds of things."

"But this is the only mine I really don't understand."

"It must have been two months ago. We found a meat pit. It was mostly surrounded by black Tai Sui. It was very evil and there was nothing to harvest, so we kept it there, but..."

"But because of the heavy distribution in the meeting, I thought about picking it there to test the quality, but it didn't work out. It was obviously black Tai Sui, but the more I cut it, the more bright-colored the meat became. After several cuts, the meat was already turning green. After cutting it a few more times, the flesh will turn red.”

"..."

Listening to what he said, Hu Ma's mind suddenly changed slightly. Is it too old to cut blood?

This is good stuff...

Not only him, but Zhou Datong and others next to him, as well as Lao Abacus, also hurriedly raised their heads and looked over.

"good……"

When the head of the village and mine met the gazes of Hu Ma and others, he also paused slightly, then sighed and said calmly: "Indeed, it was originally a black Tai Sui, but it turned out that Tai Sui was bleeding due to a cut, and..."

He seemed to be smiling bitterly, and said: "The more you cut the meat, the brighter and plumper it becomes. It's even leached with blood. It's simply the highest quality blood food we've ever seen..."

"To be honest, it even caused a group of evil spirits to howl at night, and they were dispersed after a big sacrifice."

"..."

Hearing this, Hu Ma couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Then how many cuts did you make in total?"

Blood Taisui is a rare thing. Normally, these blood food mines, if they are not that big, can be cut out for dozens of kilograms a year, like a treasure. But this Huoziling is only a small mine. If you give them twenty kilograms, it's an astronomical figure.

But now, look, they actually made a big deal secretly?

It makes people excited. Think about what you came here to do. If there is really a rich blood food mine here that has not been known to the superiors, then the quantity you need now can be solved in one go?

"Not much..."

When Nazhuang Mine Chief saw the people around him looking over, their eyes became impatient, and his face became a little embarrassed, and he said: "I just cut a few baskets..."

"How many baskets?"

When Hu Ma heard this, she almost lost her temper.

The last time I saw Xue Tai Sui weighing in a basket was when I was at Dongzi Li's house...

"……It does not matter!"

The head of the mine in Nazhuang said hurriedly: "We also know that blood Tai Sui is a treasure, so we don't dare to be careless. But unexpectedly, not long after the cutting, we found that the meat quality had changed again. There were already golden lines in the blood quality. , Cancan is very beautiful..."

"Jin Wen Tai Sui?"

Hu Ma felt her heart skip a beat, and she was already feeling a little numb. She even looked at the tall and powerful leader of the village and mine in front of her with a suspicious expression.

This blood food has golden lines inside it, which is gold and jade paste...

This is what he used to save the sweet girl from Dongzi's Li family.

But what Dongzi's Li family gave back to him later was a superior one, which was already the best among the blood foods he had ever eaten.

For a moment, I suddenly felt a little wary, something was wrong...

This is just a medium-sized blood food mine. Occasionally, some good things can be dug out. This is very reasonable. But according to the leader of the mine, how come all the good things in the world are here?

"But here's the scary thing..."

Before Hu Ma could raise any doubts, the head of the village and mine also sighed in a low voice, his voice trembling a little, and said in a low voice: "That golden pattern Tai Sui, we all know how powerful it is, and we all say it is the blessing of Master Tai Sui. We, who have suffered a lot, have been hit by a huge sum of money."

"But who would have imagined that the further you cut, the more obvious the gold pattern will be, and the more blood will be leached out. That kind of quality is rare even for people like us who have been working in the mines for more than ten years... …”

"..."

"Is there such a thing?"

It was also the first time that Hu Ma heard of this situation. Her heart was pounding and she hurriedly asked: "What about the back? Going deeper, what else was cut out?"

"The key is here..."

The leader of the mine in Nazhuang stammered: "We, we don't know, we have sealed the vein..."

At this moment, Hu Ma couldn't help but frown. Lao Abacus, Zhou Datong and others also looked at him with unkind eyes, not hiding their doubts.

"Hey, this mine leader is not very practical..."

Old Abacus winked at Hu Ma from afar, and laughed in a low voice: "This season's Tai Sui worship should have been completed a month ago, and the meat cutters should have returned to farming, and those who have taken a break for the new year."

"How come you are the only one in this mine who won't let anyone go, and at this moment, you are saying that you accidentally cut out a bloody spot? I look at it, maybe you keep it secretly, just to put it back in your pocket." Hit it, right?"

"So, if anything good is found in the veins behind, you guys don't dare to let us, the Red Lantern Club, know about it..."

"That's right, right?"

"..."

As soon as he said these words, the head of the village and mine looked a little embarrassed, but it was difficult to refute.

Everyone is not stupid. Those who guard the mine have really cut out good things. It is common not to hand it over to the superiors. What's more, this blood food mine is originally a time when new and old owners alternate, and the accounts and management are at their most chaotic. .

I think that when I came to this mine, I didn't just recently discover the place where there was blood food. I discovered it a long time ago, but covered it up. After the payment from the Red Lantern Club was completed, I secretly left the workers behind and dug it out myself. Once you get something good, it becomes your own treasure.

The Red Lantern Society had made up its mind from the very beginning, to get rid of the trouble and kill the donkey. It would agree to them first, and then find its own family members to take over.

The people at this mine are not stupid. They knew that they might be replaced by people sent by the Red Light Society, so they took advantage of this opportunity to line their own pockets!

However, everyone knows these things well, and the old abacus only points out, but is not aggressive.

"well……"

The mine boss of the village was also a little helpless. He looked at Hu Ma, bowed his head gently and said: "Boss Hu, your master, this master named Mr. Zhou, I have little experience and I have never heard of him."

"But Shou Sui is a member of the same family. Maybe my master knows about him, and maybe the two old men are still friends. So, I don't think you are a member of the Red Lantern Club, I just think you are the big Shou Sui in our family."

"I can only say these words to Da Shou Sui."

"The Red Lantern Lady has nothing but the evil ghost in blue. That evil ghost is not my ancestor, so who cares about him?"

"But we also know that once the Red Light Society takes over, no matter how nice it is, we will no longer be able to make the final decision on the Blood Food Mine."

"I don't know when you people who will take over will come. We just want to make a few more profits before then. At least the brothers' future food and clothing will be provided for."

"This vein of blood ore was indeed something we discovered before. We hid it and didn't talk about it. We just wanted to cut something out at the end so that everyone could share the profits. But we were able to cut out these good things later, but we didn't It’s really not what we expected…”

"The most important thing is that when we want to work hard and see what is deeper in this vein, then..."

"..."

He saw him staying up late for the New Year's Eve, but now he had a strange expression on his face, looking unspeakable. Hu Ma couldn't help but frown, and said in a deep voice: "That's it?"

The leader of the mine was silent for a long time, then whispered: "It's haunted..."
