Twilight Boundary

If you say no, you won’t see me.

The housekeeper in this old house handed over twenty years of account books, but Hu Ma didn't read them.

In fact, if you think about it, you know that the Hu family's house was not earned by the Hu family, but was given by the previous dynasty. Twenty years ago, the Hu family was suppressed and the whole family moved away, leaving only this old slave. The house is guarded here, and the door is locked for twenty years, and no one will interact with anyone else.

Over time, even some of the properties in Beijing were scattered. Anyway, this old slave was alone and had enough money to survive.

The account books and other things he handed over were just about which properties belonged to the Hu family and where they were now.

Hu Ma really wasn't interested in these things.

People from the Hu family in Qingyuan also wanted to come in and say a few words as members of the Hu family, but they disappeared.

Hu Ma was very curious. He had already killed people from the Hu family in Qingyuan and made the trouble known to the world. Why would they come again?

The uncle Ren from the mother clan also wanted to reminisce about old times, but Hu Ma was not interested in meeting either.

Later, when Lao Abacus followed Xiao Douguan, who was walking squarely and with two wings on his head, he came in to discuss things like tomorrow's funeral arrangements...

...We still need to see this.

However, even for this funeral, Hu Ma decided to simply handle it. Although everyone in Kyoto knew that the Hu family was back, they were also looking at the Hu family.

But after all, Hu Ma still felt that it had been more than ten years since his biological father passed away, and he didn't even have the reincarnation soul or the corpse-keeping soul. Considering his lifetime wish, he just wanted to be sent back to Shangjing, buried in the ancestral hall, and stay by the side of his mother-in-law. That’s all.

Although some people may think that large funerals are held out of filial piety, he can clearly see the current situation. It is nothing more than using such an unexpectedly huge funeral to show Hu Jintao to countless people in Beijing, or the entire world. The dignity of home.

Zhen Zou Hu, one of the ten surnames, was almost forgotten in the eyes of many people in this world.

With some of the things Hu Ma did in the past few years, people gradually remembered him.

Especially after the death of Tongyin Meng Yi, the reputation of the Zougui lineage grew greatly, and the whole world was reminded of the reputation of the Zhenhui lineage.

Going to Beijing this time seems to be using this funeral to draw the world's attention to people to watch.

But, even if he was lured here and gained this reputation, so what?

Sitting in the Hu family's mansion, which still seemed empty and lonely, Hu Ma raised his eyes and looked outside. The vast capital city was covered by a thick darkness that seemed to be irreversible.

Deep in the night, there was no sound.

On the long street, you can only occasionally see one or two cool lanterns. Even though you are now a Nine-Pillar Taoist, you still feel vaguely depressed and gloomy.

But now, the leader of Daluo Dharma Sect showed up and planned to hold a Dharma gathering. Most of the ten surnamed masters gathered in Shangjing.

Speaking of which, I am afraid that nearly half of the most capable people in the world are crowded in Shangjing, right?

Why does this big city still seem so depressing and gloomy with so many people here?

"There is no need to stay in mourning for forty-nine days, not even seven days. I will send my father to the ancestral hall early tomorrow morning."

I don't want to cause trouble in the capital city, nor do I want to fulfill those people's wishes.

Hu Ma understood even more that her biological father had been waiting in Laoyin Mountain for more than ten years, and nothing would be more reassuring than sending him to his ancestral hall.

Regarding this biological father, Hu Ma already knew that he was not a cold-blooded person and respected him in her heart.

But this kind of reputation-making thing in the name of a dead person is really not what he wants, and I believe his mother-in-law will think so too.

"Okay, it's up to you."

The old abacus said: "But the funeral standards are not too high. It is really for others to see, but the funeral must be guaranteed. This is respect for the ancestors."

"Send your ancestors with two talents and eight skills."

"You have already chosen your longevity material in Laoyin Mountain, so you won't disturb the dead anymore, but you have to look carefully for the charioteer. Regarding this matter, I have been thinking about it for you since we were on the road. "

"If we follow this custom of going to Beijing, if the emperor dies, he will have to hire 120 pole bearers, and if the royal family dies, he will have to hire 80 people. Of course, the emperor and his family are all dead now. You guys with ten surnames The biggest among them is that even if they find a thousand people, it’s not considered arrogance.”

"But it's not necessary, right?"

"So, I thought about it and invited them according to the noble specifications. Sixty-four people are already the most suitable."

"..."

Hearing this, Hu Ma couldn't help but frown. Her late father had become a withered skeleton, and his longevity was not that long. He could only lift it with one hand.

You actually need 64 people to carry it?

But before he could speak, Old Abacus said: "This is the minimum, we can't reduce it any more."

"The Hu family is the Hu family after all. You can save some things, but you can't do without them."

"..."

Hu Ma listened and had no choice but to nod her head and sighed softly: "It's up to you to help handle this kind of thing."

The old abacus nodded and said: "Then get the money quickly, I have to do it urgently!"

Hu Ma was stunned for a moment: "Money?"

The old abacus said: "Yes, although it is simpler, it still costs a lot. Not to mention a pair of incense, paper and candles, it will cost money to find these sixty-four pole men, right?"

"Many people come to express their condolences, so funeral customs are inevitable, right?"

"There are a lot of things inside and out. Even for those who come to express their condolences, there will also be memorial services sent according to the ceremony, but we have to prepare some in advance, right? Just hiring someone to keep accounts will cost money! "

Hearing this question, Leng Buding made Hu Ma unable to react.

If we talk about money, I, a descendant of the Hu family who came back to the capital in glory, really don't have any money.

However, the Hu family of Qingyuan is rich, and the Ren family of the mother family is also rich. They even mentioned it when they were about to come in to meet.

The previous cleaning of the house and the newly purchased servants were all paid for by them.

If Hu Ma is in need, go over and tell them now, and the money will come.

They were probably waiting outside too.

But Hu Ma didn't have this idea now. Anyway, he just waved his hand. Before he could speak, the official Xiaodou next to him pressed down the hand stretched out by the old abacus and said: "How can you beg for money like this? You need How much? I’ll move it to my aunt.”

"Now as long as we ask the master for an order and know what to do, we will have an idea!"

"..."

As soon as he said this, even Hu Ma couldn't help but look at Xiao Douguan in admiration, then reached out and touched a piece of blood food in Xiao Hongtang's basket to appreciate it.

So Lao Abacus followed Xiao Douguan out of the house and settled down overnight.

There is indeed no shortage of money from Fairy Miaoshan. In addition, there are also manpower in the mansion, and Guan Xiaodou is following to arrange things. It is enough to handle it. As for the poleman, Lao Abacus is also nervous.

The sixty-four pole bearers also had to eliminate those whose zodiac signs were inconsistent with the deceased's. He was afraid that if they didn't get it together one night, they would be embarrassed the next day. However, Xiaodou Guan had already had an idea. As soon as he told Lao Abacus, he immediately Got it.

He immediately went to find Miss Zhou. As soon as he said this, Miss Zhou was confused and immediately treated it as a big deal.

If you are looking for a pole puller, you must be young and energetic, have the same horoscope, have strength, understand the rules, and be able to lift the pole smoothly.

Where can I find it at this time?

Of course he went to his father to borrow someone.

Who else is more suitable and obedient than the young disciples of Shousui Sect?

On the other hand, when the head of the Zhou family saw his girl coming to him, he opened his mouth to borrow some help to help the Hu family carry the coffin. He also looked embarrassed and scolded: "Don't forget your last name. You have no name or identity, so let's start helping now." Is there something that needs to be explained first?”

The girl on Thursday frowned and thought about it for a while, then suddenly said: "Dad, there is something I don't want to understand!"

Zhou Zhiming, the head of the Zhou family, sneered: "Tell me what you can tell me!"

Girl Zhou said: "Why do you need other people's methods for nothing?"

"And in the town, I was chasing you. Why did you run so fast?"

"..."

Zhou Zhiming faced his daughter's eyes that suddenly lit up. He wanted to speak for a moment, but sighed helplessly.

He waved his hand and said to Tie Jun, the official in the lobby who pretended not to hear these words: "Go and arrange a master for her!"

"It seems polite to pick someone with a pure Yang body."

"The Hu family is a direct descendant of the family, so why do they only use sixty-four people? When the Meng family sent out the fifth server, they still used eighty people!"

"..."

So, with everyone trying their best to help, even though it only took one night, all the arrangements were made. At dawn the next day, Lao Abacus secretly reported to Hu Ma, letting him feel relieved.

Hu Ma also put on white linen clothes, and came to the coffin surrounded by everyone. The pole bearers were already ready, and the road ahead was paved with paper money, extending far away in the direction of the ancestral temple.

Hu Ma broke the tiles himself and read in his mouth: "The creatures of heaven and earth, the ghosts and gods passing by, I am borrowing the road to condemn the mourning!"

"The main road will be borrowed one foot and two, and the small road will be borrowed eight feet wide."

"When people lead their souls away, they must do the right thing in mourning."

"This funeral is not an extraordinary funeral. The nobles of the Hu family receive divine light."

"Those who harm me will die, and those who stand in my way will die."

"I will take the opportunity to send my late father off today, and I will leave a stick of incense in front of the ancestral hall."

"Awake!"

"..."

Under the wooden sword, the gray tiles shattered. Hu Ma walked in front holding the soul-drawing flag, and behind him, sixty-four pole bearers carried the wooden coffin.

When he came out of the door, the servants knelt down to send him away. Outside, on the roadside, various mourning platforms were crowded.

Along the way, I don't know how many people were just watching along the way, borrowing the name of being sent to see the descendants of the legendary Zhenzhou Hu family.

At this time, Hu Ma was not allowed to change his appearance or disguise, and allowed countless eyes of curiosity, surprise, or awe to fall on his face. From the corner of his eye, he seemed to see some familiar faces, hiding among the crowd, quietly His figure was hidden.

But whether it was an illusion or not, Hu Ma actually saw a figure wearing a bamboo hat and holding a white cat in his arms in the crowd.

There was actually some surprise in my heart. Now in the capital city, there are so many masters and dangers everywhere.

Miss White Wine, a person who is usually so cautious, would never appear in Shangjing City at this time, right?
