Twilight Boundary

"Hua La La..."

In the dark Shima Town, which had just been shrouded in the deep night, more and more lights lit up, one by one, like a revived red dragon, bringing the town and the people inside back to the world.

The people on the long street seemed to wake up from a dream, and felt that it was a heavy and extremely uncomfortable dream, but when they opened their eyes faintly, they saw that the altar was moving again, and the lantern blessing meeting began again. Compared with before, the atmosphere was more enthusiastic.

The red lanterns on the stage emitted a faint red light, but compared with before, it was as if there were countless gods protecting the law, and the bright red light dispelled the haze in the town.

The Dharma King standing at the four corners of the altar looked more solemn than before, and sprinkled a little bit of nectar on the people around him.

The sound of gongs and drums rang again, the sound of praying and bowing rang, and the sound of praying and chanting rang.

The bustle of this street is back, and the breath of life is back.

The largest and most lively lantern festival in history started from this street, as if bringing some things that had been missing from this world back to the world and to the people.

…

…

Outside the town, it was already gloomy and terrifying. Countless figures flashed in all directions, rushing out of Shima Town from all directions, shouting and screaming, with a sinister aura and joy, and greeted the various officials who came to the town with unfriendly faces.

Tiejun, the flesh and blood official, seemed to have put pressure on the town. He was not as mysterious and terrifying as the attack of the young master of the Meng family, but he rode on the tiger-skinned horse and led the armored warriors behind him, and the more he rushed, the faster his speed became.

In the distance, only a sound of falling rocks was heard, as if an earthquake that destroyed everything came from far away.

In several other places, four small officials also led the crowd to kill, shouting and shouting, and the rolling murderous aura also made the town precarious.

"Short, big-headed old Tiejun, don't be arrogant..."

But facing this dangerous situation, the demons who don't eat cattle came out of the town, but they were all full of evil spirits. The two sides approached each other quickly from the forest. Before they met face to face, someone shouted loudly.

I saw a tall man who was twice as tall as an ordinary person, holding a one-horned lance in his hand, standing out from the crowd, shouting and yelling:

"Brothers, please get out of the way. I, the giant spirit of the East Sea, will meet him. I have been fighting with this Shousui Hall official for a long time."

"Let's not bully him, follow the rules of the rivers and lakes..."

"..."

As he screamed, his body seemed to be expanding constantly, and a rolling soul light appeared above his head. He suddenly took a deep breath, as if all the air within a radius of ten feet was swallowed into his stomach. His huge body suddenly raised the weapon above his head.

"Hua La..."

When the sword was smashed down, there was a gust of wind in all directions, not only the Tiejun official.

Even the armored guards around the Tiejun official were smashed into a ball of meat by him.

"Hmph!"

Faced with this powerful blow, the Tiejun official on horseback also had a gloomy face. Facing the foul language of the demon, he didn't even look at him.

He raised the big knife in his hand, and with a bang, the knife hit the one-legged bronze spear in the giant's hand. The movement looked very small, but it actually knocked the one-legged bronze spear into the air.

Even the giant was shocked and flew away for several days. He turned over in the air and broke a tree that was as thick as a man's embrace.

"My mother is coming..." The giant rolled over twice on the ground before sitting down. He wiped his face without blushing or panting. He picked up the weapon on the ground and pointed at the Tiejun official and shouted, "Brothers, I have tested the ability of this big-headed ghost for you!" "There are no rules to follow when facing these ten lackeys. Let's go together and chop him to death..." "..." "Tsk..." The Tiejun official never looked at him and didn't even slow down his horse. After knocking him away with a knife, he still rushed forward, but immediately, a strange hook chain suddenly stretched out and wrapped around his neck. Seeing that the giant was about to be entangled by the neck and pulled off the horse, a girl who looked undersized suddenly jumped down from the tree next to him. With two small hands, she blocked the hook chain and bounced it back. She chuckled and said, "I knew that Junior Brother Peng was not good enough. You have been fighting with the Ghost Gate Li family for the past few years. You have already wasted your ability to live!"

As she laughed, figures kept rushing out from the trees next to her and deep in the forest. Some stood by and watched their jokes, laughing strangely. Some stood on the branches next to them, looking forward, and suddenly shook their sleeves, and I don't know what method they used.

"Hula..."

But at this moment, the surroundings suddenly became flying sand and rocks, and dark clouds were densely covered. The strange horse under the seat of the Iron Horse Hall official was very heroic, and the armored guards following behind him were even more brave and fierce. Facing these monsters, they had no fear at all.

But at this time, they couldn't help but rein in their horses, and some even covered their mounts' eyes with their hands. When they looked forward again, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.

They were shocked to see that right in front of them, there was originally just a gentle slope in the forest, which could be easily crossed by horseback. But at this moment, it inexplicably turned into a steep cliff with strange mountains and rocks. There were dark clouds surging inside, and they could hear the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling.

The dismounted horses were frightened. They looked at the cliff in front of them and did not dare to rush over. Even the armored guards on the horses frowned and tried to look forward, trying to see through the illusion, but found nothing. .

If you can see through the illusion, then it is an illusion. If you cannot see through it, then it is real.

"Hulala..."

At this moment, next to the cliff, with strange laughter, evil ghosts crawled out from the cliff one after another, grabbing at the Tie Jun lobby officer and the armored guards behind him, with gloomy arrogance, as if To pull them all into the cliff.

The charging officers all stopped in shock, not daring to act rashly.

On the official side of the Tiejun Hall, looking at the billowing black smoke in front of them, the road in front of them suddenly turned into a dangerous high cliff and countless ghost-handed vines stretching out from the cliff. They were already a little panicked, and their formation was a little unstable.

But the Tie Jun lobby officer in front suddenly raised his brows. He regarded the dangerous cliff and the evil ghosts as if they were nothing, and suddenly swallowed them in one breath.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his mouth and shouted fiercely, spitting out a strong wind. It blew up the sky and darkened the sky, sending sand and rocks flying. He was confused and even the surrounding trees were broken by the wind.

Whether it was the precipitous cliff in front of him, the ghost aura sticking out from the cliff, or the ghost mist that filled the mountains, they were all blown away by his breath. , as if even the mountain peaks in front of me were blown down.

In the haze, one could even see the figures of countless monsters, which were blown away by the wind, accompanied by strange screams and extremely surprised and panicked sounds.

When the strong wind blew by, all I could see was that the area in front of me was clean, not even a few stones were left. There were no dangerous cliffs or ridges. There was still a winding path in the forest. Straight into town.

But in front of this path, there were three figures standing. One was standing with his hands behind his back, one was in a half-crouching position, and one was hanging on the tree next to him with one hand.

Among them, the one standing in the middle is the leader of the theater troupe, with oil paint on his face. The one squatting half-crouched is a man in a straw hat. The one hanging on the tree is the female doll that was shot before. It seems that the strong wind just now, only The three of them can withstand it.

"After all, we are old acquaintances..."

Facing Tie Jun's lobby officer, the leader of the theater troupe even seemed to be in a good mood. He said with a smile: "Brother Tie Jun, why are you so rude and so cruel when you meet me? Could it be that when old friends meet, they can't be together?" Don’t you have any interest in saying hello?”

"You are a demon who doesn't eat cows. I am the Zhou family's official guarding Xiling Road."

When the Tiejun lobby officer saw them, he slowly raised his hand to stop everyone behind him. He was on the horse and sighed lowly, saying: "You and I are our own masters now, so what can we say?"

"Or do you think that your tricks can take advantage of my abilities as a New Year's Watcher?"

"..."

Jin Chen'er, the troupe leader, laughed and said: "Everyone talks about staying at the end of the year to restrain themselves. It's not new for you to make such arrogant remarks when you come to my opera gate. But the opera gate can't control you. Don't I take it lightly if I don't eat oxen?" inside?"

When Tie Jun's lobby official heard this, he suddenly fell silent. Apparently, even he couldn't say anything that wouldn't take the non-eating cow seriously.

"We are all sensible people, so why do we need to do things so absolutely?"

The troupe leader laughed: "Brother Tiejun, if you attack our altar, we will not be afraid even if we don't eat cows. It's just whether we succeed or not. You people who watch the New Year are fierce with swords, but the small hall under your hands I'm afraid many officials and errand boys will die in our hands."

"We are all old acquaintances, and we are doing errands for the superiors. This is not worth taking. So, let's calm down and stop getting mad and start fighting. How about we make a bet?"

"..."

Tie Jun was slightly startled and said solemnly: "What kind of gambling method?"

"I bet you have the ability to rush to Shima Town within three pillars of incense!"

The troupe leader laughed and said: "If you have this ability, there is no need for you to make the errand boys under you work hard. I, Shima Town, will not leave it to you as a cow-eating disciple."

"If you don't have the ability, don't kill indiscriminately with a knife, just go back and kowtow in front of your master who is keeping watch on New Year's Eve!"

"Of course, since we made this bet, we have to be sincere. My sincerity is that in the three sticks of incense you rushed to Shima Town, I promise for our senior brother that he will not take action with his own hands. how?"

"..."

Immediately, the Tiejun lobby officer nodded slightly, yelled angrily, and rushed out: "I am the lobby officer who stays up late to catch the sword, and I only came here to kill the rebels under orders. Who wants to make a bet with you bunch of bastards?"

"My sons, listen to my orders and plunder the formation for me to see how I kill the monster..."
