Twilight Boundary

The Imperial Master took the candle and left, leaving only darkness in the surrounding cellar, as if all sounds were swallowed up.

Hu Ma still stood in the darkness, endless emotions surging.

Surprisingly, what he was thinking about at this moment was not what the Imperial Master said, but the confusion that he had been unable to resolve again and again since he appeared in this world, and the series of doubts that were pressing in his heart.

No one has ever told me anything, so I can only experiment with everything. Even if I am forced to do something for my own sake, I can only be cautious.

In fact, I have long wondered why my birth temple was in ruins when I was reincarnated, why I could cultivate Lao Jun’s eyebrows so easily, why I always had so many things arranged by others, and why I felt like I was being watched... …

The most important thing is why I have never been able to be as free and easy as other reincarnations and maintain the alienation from this world.

Now I realized with a wry smile that I was living in an illusion.

Tiger said that he was confused and had always been confused, which was indeed true.

This heart has never been at ease from the moment I woke up!

If you say that you are a reincarnated person, then the identity of the Hu family is tantamount to being stolen by you. If you say that you are a reincarnated person, the natal temple is in ruins and is always different from others. Therefore, no matter who you are, you will always be different from others. Doesn't seem so solid?

"but……"

But while he was thinking about this, he suddenly felt cruel and punched his heart twice, suppressing the invisible panic that could not stop churning in his heart:

"You have been on the road for several years. Is it possible that just because of his words, you are so frightened that you lose your peace of mind?"

“What I see is what I know, and what I think is where I am.”

He muttered to himself, reciting these words.

I have experienced the process of being so confused that it took me seven days to wake up, and I have also experienced the process of transforming myself from a complete dead person into a living person bit by bit.

That feeling of being reborn has now become his only clear perception in this chaos: "No matter what the old guy says, I am still myself. There is nothing to worry about. When something happens, I will figure it out!" "

Even the national master thought that Hu Ma would be confused and confused after suddenly knowing the news. Therefore, he was not in a hurry to say anything to Hu Ma, but wanted him to adapt and then accept it.

But he didn't know that Hu Ma's identity was that of a ghost.

But at heart, he is a Shou Sui.

Instinctively, watchers only believe in their own abilities. With their own abilities, they are not afraid of anything.

Besides, since I woke up from this world, I have learned my skills for so many years, and experienced so many battles in the world, it is not in vain.

Even Hu Ma himself had a hard time describing it clearly. Now that he heard this, he naturally felt a little depressed.

But correspondingly, the invisible confusion and difficulty before disappeared, and my heart felt unprecedentedly clear.

"There's no time to waste here procrastinating!"

He listened quietly to his heart, which went from chaotic and rapid to firm and slow. There was a hint of determination in his eyes: "Since he said so many unfounded words, let's go and find out."

"You can always ask clearly what is true and false, right and wrong. If you say you don't understand or don't know, then Second Master knows even less, let alone doesn't know. How can he still live so transparently? I am his first disciple. Could it be that Can’t even learn this?”

In this darkness, he stood for about a cup of tea and experienced various emotional changes.

After a cup of tea, he slowly walked out of the ancestral hall. Under the moonlight, his face became silent and firm again.

Turning around and looking at this desolate Fox Coffin Village, I felt that this place seemed to have been forgotten by heaven and earth. Now in Laoyin Mountain, a mountain sacrifice had just been held, and incense was everywhere, but here, it seemed lonely and cold, even The tiger's gaze was also indifferent.

With a low breath, he walked to the skeleton and looked at the former body of his biological father.

Perhaps, even the word "predecessor" should be omitted.

But also because she had very few memories about him, Hu Ma's mood at this time was still more complicated than sad.

Even thinking of the Imperial Master's words, there seemed to be a faint sense of resentment rising:

"If the Meng family sacrificed their ancestors in exchange for an opportunity to kowtow, then wouldn't it mean that the Hu family sacrificed their only descendant in exchange for this opportunity?"

Sighing in his heart, he still took off his robe, collected his bones, and prepared to take them back to Dayangzhai for burial.

"you……"

Just when he was wrapping the skeleton in his robe, he heard the rustle of footsteps next to him, and someone hesitated to speak.

Hu Ma turned her head indifferently and saw Old Abacus approaching carefully.

As soon as he saw his own eyes, he immediately stood still, closed his eyes, raised his face slightly, and trembled.

Hu Ma took a deep breath and said, "What are you doing?"

"I……"

Old Abacus's voice trembled: "I don't know if you are going to unscrew my head next..."

Hu Ma looked at him coldly and did not answer.

The old abacus suddenly panicked and said in a tearful voice: "I don't want to come, but I have to call him master, and I have to come. Besides, in our sect, the bones are much lighter. , If I don’t come, there will be a lot of people coming..."

Seeing his pitiful appearance, with tears and snot dripping from his nose, Hu Ma slowly exhaled and said calmly: "Why should I twist your head?"

"Your master just came over and told me some things. It really made me a little confused and I couldn't believe it, so I will go check it out. If what he said is false, then I will just Go and rip off his head."

"ah……"

Hearing that his accent was indeed much calmer than he thought, Lao Baanpan boldly opened his eyes and said cautiously: "Then, what if what he said is true?"

Hu Ma said calmly: "If it's true, you can always tell right from wrong, so what's the point of confusion?"

Hearing this, Old Abacus was really surprised. He looked Hu Ma up and down, as if to see if he was pretending. After a long time, he whispered: "You seem... very calm."

"Actually, it looks more scary like this..."

"You... you might as well cry all over the place, get drunk, and just use the wine to drown your sorrows!"

"..."

As he spoke, he took out a wine bottle from his waist, shook it, and said, "Look, I brought you all the wine."

Hu Ma took it and took a sip, but he didn't really drink much. He handed the jug back and said: "Remember to return the jug back to the village. There are only a few in total. It's still time to entertain foreign guests. Only then can I use it.”

"Your master has already stolen a pot. If you steal another pot, the old patriarch will definitely scold you tomorrow..."

When Lao Abacus reached out, he suddenly grabbed his wrist, stared at him, and said: "In addition, compared to this national master, I am more curious about you now, brother..."

"I have known for a long time that there is something wrong with your identity. You are pretending to be a ghost, and you are known as the eleventh surname. It's just that you don't look like someone who harbors evil intentions, so everyone just muddles along. But now I want to know. You have been ordered to keep an eye on me from the beginning. "

"..."

"no……"

Old Abacus was frightened by him and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: "How do I know who you are?"

"At first I thought I knew who you were several times, but then I seemed to be mistaken."

"Besides, our sect is just walking around in the rivers and lakes. I don't know who I will meet. Even you, you came to the door yourself at first, right? Later, the blood food mine, no Is it also Lao Xu who asked me to take care of you, this young man?"

"Of course, of course..."

As he spoke, his lips pursed: "But to be honest, those in our sect are all light-fed, and they will indeed be attracted to people with heavy lives."

"But at the beginning, I didn't expect that your life would be so serious..."

"Think about it for yourself. Since I followed you, I have almost lost my life four or five times, but the benefits have not been lost. Even my current wages are still received from the Red Light Society..."

"...Do you think I don't want to leave?"

"..."

"hehe."

Looking at his tangled old face, Hu Ma slowly let go of his hand and said calmly: "Now that your identity has been exposed and you want to leave, why are you following here now?"

Old Abacus's face suddenly looked even more bitter, and he said: "I wanted to leave before, but my ancestor wouldn't let me."

"This time it's the master who has spoken. I can only serve you by your side..."

"Um?"

Hu Ma glanced at him: "He asked you to follow me? Oh, did he want you to stare at me?"

"How can there be..."

Old Abacus was so frightened that he shrank his neck and whispered: "You are different now. You are the fourth generation chief priest of my Da Luo Fa Sect!"

"In this sect, we all regard you as our ancestor!"

"Priest?"

Hu Ma also heard the Imperial Master talk about this just now, but at that time she was confused and didn't have the thought to ask him anything.

"This is amazing, I didn't expect it to be you..."

Old Abacus glanced at Hu Ma sadly, as if he was also a little dissatisfied with him, but he still explained in a low voice: "The chief priest is the priest selected by the Daluo Sect. In the past, only the leader was qualified to serve. "

"One hundred and seventy years ago, our ancestor set up the Great Sacrifice in Beijing, received the emperor's order, led all the strange people in the world, and was in charge of the ancestral altar and the ghosts of the gods in various palaces. He was the first generation chief priest."

"In the next thirty years, I, the second generation chief priest of Daluo Dharma Sect, refined and suppressed the Chou Mansion, and set up the Twelve Ghost Altar to suppress the world's luck."

"Then later, twenty years ago, our master was the third-generation chief priest."

"He fought with the reincarnated evil spirit, attracted the ten surnames into the game, and replaced the twelve ghost altars with the ancestral temple of the ten surnames..."

"only……"

Having said this, he glanced at Hu Ma furtively and said, "I never expected that he would choose you to be the fourth-generation chief priest, and... he also chose me to introduce you."
