Twilight Boundary

A stance?

It must be said that Hu Ma felt a little strange when he heard what the old lady of the Li family said. Later, he even felt that it was the biggest joke in the world.

The ten surnames who wanted to become immortals would actually have the same stance as Zhu Tianming and Tu Taisui?

If so, why would it be so difficult to act?

However, even if it felt strange in his heart, this time he forced the Li family to show up, one was to ask for punishment, and the other was to fight to determine the ownership of the treasure.

Since she had opened her mouth, Hu Ma had to listen more.

Madam Li seemed to know that it was hard to convince people by what she said suddenly, so she smiled bitterly: "I dare not speak nonsense, and what I said is all true."

"And, to be honest with you, sir, I came here with the intention of confessing my guilt. This God-given king was indeed supported by the Li family, but now it has come to this point, which is not what the Li family wants. In fact, they just think this person is a headache."

"Alas, if it weren't for such a big handle that was caught by the Zhao family, the Li family wouldn't have to be forced to come to you first to talk."

"It's just that the first one is the first Well, someone has to start first, so I just prepared a few words from the heart. I wonder if Mr. Hu is willing to listen to it? "

"..."

Hu Ma frowned and said, "I should respect the elderly, please."

Old Mrs. Li exhaled slowly and let her speak. She was silent for a while. After a long time, she whispered, "Mr. Hu, aren't you curious why the national teacher built Baiyujing, even though there was the Shiting Alliance, but the surnames were not enthusiastic?"

Hearing her mention this, Hu Ma was really slightly startled, and then nodded.

Before in Shangjing, Hu Ma did have doubts in his heart. Originally, the national teacher summoned the ten surnames to be in charge, and he wanted to borrow his body to invite the twelve ghost altars to see the reincarnation.

However, on the one hand, he gave the Zhen Sui Shu to Erguotou, and buried it in advance. On the other hand, it seems that when it comes to Shangjing City, the Zhou family, the Li family and others are all more concerned about participation, but they don't put in much effort.

It can be said that they did not have the opportunity to make a move, but thinking about it afterwards, it always makes people feel awkward.

The ones who really put in the effort should be like the Wang family, who gambled the fate of the entire family.

But the other surnames did not use their full strength during the battle, and they did not take any responsibility after the defeat of the national teacher. They even showed a playful attitude towards the failure of the entire Shangjing City Dharma Assembly.

"Dongxuan is a man with great ability..."

Madam Li looked at Hu Ma's young face, seemed to sigh, sighed softly, and said: "But he is also very naive."

"He actually wants to become an immortal!"

Hearing her comment, Hu Ma couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, thinking that this seemed very interesting.

It is true that the national teacher wants to become an immortal, so don't the ten surnames want to become immortals?

"It's not a sarcastic remark to say that he is naive."

Old Madam Li said: "Because he is too smart, he is a scholar, and he only wants to study various methods. He even really wants to be a free and easy immortal, but he is also pursuing this goal."

"So twenty years ago, after he destroyed Du Yi's luck, he hid himself, and was tempered by the wind and snow, lonely and miserable. He only wanted to plan for the world and transcend. Unlike the ten surnames, he stole the throne and ruled the world with the rivers and lakes, rolling in this dirty jar for twenty years."

"Ruling the world is not an easy job. Even if it is just barely maintained, he has seen a lot of dirty things. He Hiding in this quiet place, he can concentrate on practicing the law, but because of the quietness, he is not clear. "

"No matter how smart a person who has left the world is, he will never understand the true thoughts of people unless he rolls around in this world of mortals."

"Because he doesn't understand this world, nor does he understand the wealth of the world."

"Speaking of becoming an immortal, do you know why they not only want to become an immortal, but also want to build Baiyujing?"

"..."

Listening to her words, Hu Ma was slightly moved and slowly said: "Don't you want to have a city of people serving you after you become an immortal?"

"Yes, that's it. . "

Old Madam Li sighed and said, "But even the idea of ​​Baiyujing was actually proposed by the Wang family. The national teacher made some concessions for the sake of us ordinary people."

"He just wanted to become an immortal, cut off the last ties with the human world, travel the world, and be free and easy, but he never thought about..."

"What's the point of becoming an immortal alone?"

"The Wang family understands a little bit, so they not only want ten families to become immortals, but also want to build Baiyujing. Only in this way, after becoming immortals, they can still be high and mighty in Baiyujing. They can still enjoy the greatest happiness in the world."

"It's a pity that they think too narrowly. What can a Baiyujing do?"

"..."

When she said this, she sneered, and her expression looked a little sarcastic: "Immortals are the most free in the world, not the most miserable in the world!"

"If they really build the so-called Baiyujing according to their ideas, the ten surnames will be crowded in it, floating in the distance, and they don't know when it will end. Then are they becoming immortals, or building a cage to lock themselves up?"

"This..."

Hu Ma was stunned for a moment and had to admit that what she said made sense.

"So..."

When Mrs. Li said this, she could see that Hu Ma had understood it, so she slowly opened her mouth and said, "Driving away Tai Sui is not just your wish."

"Ten surnames, at least a few of us old friends who have communicated with each other think so."

"Not only do we think so, we even believe that when the new emperor ascends the throne, the people are united, and the world is changed, we will be able to accumulate enough courage to drive away Tai Sui."

"Of course, before going to the capital, we were not so sure. It was not until we saw your ten incense sticks, saw the road left by the great virtuous teacher, and understood what you were going to do, that we had a concrete idea of ​​the road outside Baiyujing."

"..."

Listening to her words, Hu Ma even felt a little magical.

She is the old lady of the Li family, representing the most stubborn and visionary people in the world, but she is so confident when she talks about the idea of ​​the reincarnated people chasing Tai Sui and fighting for destiny?

She is even more confident than when she first told Tieguanyin about this plan.

But if that is the case, wouldn't they have hit it off and could fight against Tai Sui? Why is there another fight?

"It's a good thing that the old lady believes in this world."

The qi in her heart was also mixed. She knew it was not that simple. She slowly exhaled, looked at Old Lady Li seriously, and said: "Now, you should tell me your conditions."

"Everything can be given to you."

Old Lady Li did not hide it, and said slowly and seriously: "But we want to keep the skills in our hands, or even the skills after breaking through the obstacles."

Hu Ma narrowed his eyes, facing this somewhat strange sentence, and just said: "What do you mean?"

"Except for the Hu family, the abilities of the ten surnames are mostly not only in the world."

Old Madam Li looked at Hu Ma and whispered, "When Tai Sui came, demons and evil spirits fought in the world, and the people fought for Tai Sui, and gradually evil powers were born. Ghosts and gods roamed, demons and evil spirits were everywhere, yin and yang were unclear, and it was a chaos."

"Most of the skills of those of us in the martial arts world came from this."

"So we are actually very clear that if one day Tai Sui is expelled, the blood food in the world will also disappear, and the skills and methods brought by blood food will also lose their roots and gradually become useless."

Hu Ma nodded. This is actually something that everyone in the martial arts world knows.

Nowadays, the world can be said to be prosperous in magic, but this is because of Tai Sui. After Tai Sui is expelled, everything will return to the original state, and there will be no so many strange methods.

Maybe there will be some left, just like before Du Yi entered the pass, but there will definitely not be so many powerful methods.

"But in addition to these methods, there is also the ability to get on the bridge."

Old Madam Li looked solemn, as if speaking the secret of heaven: "All the ten surnames have some abilities, beyond entering the mansion, and reaching the bridge, this is already the ability to steal the power of heaven and earth, which is not the power of the human world."

"Because of this, the first step after getting on the bridge is the state of 'human non-human'."

"In theory, even if Tai Sui is gone, the ability to get on the bridge is still there."

"..."

Hu Ma nodded.

Getting on the bridge is equivalent to taking advantage of the loopholes in heaven and earth, no longer relying on Tai Sui's blood and food as the foundation, so you can stay naturally.

However, she also said a little less:

If you want to expel Tai Sui, you need to change the world.

At that time, the ability to get on the bridge will also be blocked, which means that the loophole between heaven and earth is gone, the power is recovered, and the ability to get on the bridge will also disappear.

Therefore, he didn't quite understand what Old Madam Li meant.

"Master, your ability to suppress evil spirits comes from the incense and worship of the people and the laws of the dynasty."

When Mrs. Li said this, her expression became solemn. She paused for a moment and asked, "Do you know where the Li family's ability comes from?"

Hu Ma did not interrupt, but cast an inquiring look.

"The Li family, under the arrangement of the Duyi court, or Daluo Fajiao, was responsible for beheading the human demon."

Old Madam Li said: "The Li family has a guilty certificate, which is what outsiders call the sinners' list. All the sinners in the world who have damaged their virtues will be led into the blood pool in the underworld to be stabbed."

"The blood pool, one of the eight scenes of Huangquan, is formed by the blood that flows out after the sinners in the world are beheaded. Therefore, it is extremely poisonous, resentful, evil and violent."

"In addition to the blood pool, there is the Ghost Gate that determines life and death, the Stripping Pavilion where skin is peeled and bones are painted, the Naihe Bridge from death to rebirth, the Evil Dog Village where souls are separated and spirits are taken away, the Wangxiangtai that creates fortune and happiness, the Broken Money Mountain that manages wealth and money, and the Mengpo Store that frees from cause and effect..."    "These eight scenes of Huangquan all belong to this category. They were originally created by heaven and earth, and are also the foundation of the human world."

"..."

Hearing her say this, Hu Ma also nodded slowly.

After going to the capital, he received ten incense sticks, and his Taoism increased, his skills became greater, and his vision became higher. In addition, he discussed with the Daluo Fajiao represented by Lao Suanpan, Erguotou and other reincarnated people along the way, and his knowledge became deeper.

They all knew that if they wanted to fight with the ten surnames, they had to know the abilities of the ten surnames. The strongest ability of the ten surnames was the mother style of each sect.

The foundation of the ten surnames, in addition to this human foundation, is the Eight Scenes of Huangquan.

He had been to the City of Wrongful Death and knew the existence of the Eight Scenes of Huangquan, but if he wanted to understand the Eight Scenes of Huangquan, he had to admit that these places did not actually exist.

If a living person did not walk the door of the underworld and did not have the ability to turn into a ghost, he would never be able to enter the underworld.

If he could not enter, then he did not exist.

It was just because this world was affected by Tai Sui, and something could be created out of nothing, so the souls of the living could leave their bodies, and the dead could still go back and forth between Yin and Yang after death, and at this time, they could see the underworld.

Since the underworld has really been seen, some legends in the underworld are real.

If I have to describe it, Hu Ma borrowed the principles of the other world to understand it. The underworld Huangquan is similar to the spiritual world. It does not exist in reality, but it does exist in the spiritual world, and various legends have been circulating.

For example, the gate of hell determines life and death. If you pass the gate of hell, you are dead. If you don't pass the gate of hell, you will not be at peace. If you pass the gate of hell, you will really wipe out the traces from the world.

For example, the hometown platform is where the ancestors of the underworld look back at the human world.

On this platform, the ancestors cherish their children and grandchildren, so they can bring blessings to their children and grandchildren and protect future generations.

For example, there is a furnace for melting iron and making money on the broken money mountain. There is a furnace in the underworld to make money for people in the world, so people in the world can make money.

For example, the stripping pavilion is said to be the place where livestock are divided. Whether you are reincarnated as a human or an animal depends on what you strip off there and what you put on.

All other scenes are also rumors.

These things that should have existed in legends, or in the spiritual world, have blurred their boundaries because of the advent of Tai Sui, and vaguely appeared in the world, becoming the underworld that Hu Ma had seen before.

The impact of the eight scenes of Huangquan on the human world is somewhat like the core of a huge database.

All the splendor and complexity in the world are only due to the algorithm. The data there has changed, and only then can there be countless living beings in this world, and only then can there be wealth, coldness, hunger, being an animal or a human, and all kinds of differences.

……

……

"The Li family has been punishing evil on behalf of heaven for a hundred years, arresting bandits and evildoers in the world, and protecting the peace of heaven."

"Therefore, the Li family has the responsibility to arrest criminals and punish them, and also has the ability to go in and out of the underworld, call names and walk in the underworld, punish gods and punish souls. In fact, in the final analysis, it all comes from the blood pool."

Lady Li said, "The ten surnames are the most capable. Except for the Hu and Meng surnames, the others can't help but enter the underworld after crossing the bridge, and also glimpse the essence of the abilities of each sect."

"Just like the broken money mountain of noble Zhang, the Naihe Bridge of the Immortal King, the ghost gate of the Yangming Zhou family, and the stripping pavilion of the magic hand Zhao family, compared with the others, this That is what the ten surnames value. "

"Of course, because it is too important, the fates of the ten surnames are different."

"Except for the Hu and Meng families, which are not in the underworld, why did the noble Zhang and the Immortal King fall first?"

"To put it bluntly, the Immortal King family is because the ten surnames sealed the reincarnation twenty years ago. Once the reincarnation is sealed, the Naihe Bridge in the underworld becomes useless. Therefore, the Immortal King family's ability grows the slowest, and they can only pin their hopes on the national teacher."

"And the noble Zhang family, because they got the broken money mountain, they could have a steady stream of silver and money to spend, but in today's chaotic world, money is useless, and their family doesn't practice door skills, so lost its foundation."

"Later, the arrow of that evil... outsider severed the connection between the Zhang family and Poqian Mountain."

"Without the Yinfu making money, the descendants of the Zhang family are doomed to be poor, and therefore doomed to be beggars for generations, without wealth, and even tortured by the Yin ghosts of the Duyi royal family."

"..."

There are too many empty words about the "Yinfu" and "Eight Scenes". Even Hu Ma can only listen, slowly raise his head, and ask: "What does this have to do with what the old lady said?"

"The connection is exactly here."

When Mrs. Li said this, her expression became unusually solemn, and she said: "The reincarnated person on the bridge is quite But do you know how the ten surnames are calculated? "

"Once you get on the bridge, you are in a non-human state, and only when you come into contact with the Eight Scenes of Huangquan can you be considered a non-ghost state."

"If your ability increases and you begin to affect the Eight Scenes of Huangquan, you will be a non-god."

"But for the ten surnames today, they can only affect the Eight Scenes of Huangquan, but not control them."

"Even if many people are sent from each sect, even if several generations of people have spent their efforts, they can only serve the Eight Scenes of Huangquan, but are far from being in control."

"..."

Hearing her say this, Hu Ma suddenly understood.

For a moment, his heart almost beat a few beats, his eyes became somewhat unbelievable, he looked at her, and after a long time, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "So..."

"You want to completely master the Eight Scenes of Huangquan, or even... replace it?"

"..."

"Yes."

The old lady of the Li family saw that Hu Ma had understood, and there seemed to be some brilliance in her old eyes. She lowered her voice: "You want to change the world and drive away Tai Sui, we all agree."

"Even if you need the hearts of the people, we will help you, and if you need the strange methods of the world, we will not Keep it to yourself."

"But we also want to leave something for our children and grandchildren!"

"After expelling Tai Sui, all kinds of strange arts will disappear, and the method of getting on the bridge will also disappear, but the things left in the Eight Scenes of Huangquan will not disappear. This is the method that will last forever in the world, and it is also the origin and destination of all things in the world."

"This is what the ten surnames understand..."

"...Return home!"

"..."

"Buzz!"

Listening to the words of the old lady of the Li family, Hu Ma even felt his scalp slightly exploding. For a moment, he felt extremely absurd, and for a moment, he felt that it should be so.

"No wonder you don't want to become immortals, and don't want to help the national teacher build Baiyujing..."

He looked directly at the old lady with stern eyes, seemingly unable to control his smile, and said in a low voice: "You think his plan is too lonely and unhappy, and it is not as good as the life you have spent in the past twenty years." The wealthy life I am used to..."

"So, you don't want to become that fairy..."

"What you want is to be a living god who lives forever in the prosperous world after changing the world..."

"..."

I still underestimated the ten surnames.

If you master the Eight Scenes of the Underworld, then someone can make money in the underworld, and your children and grandchildren will never suffer from poverty; someone can forgive sins and souls, and will not be punished by evil virtues; someone can bring good fortune and luck, and will always have great luck...

I should have thought that the reason why the Imperial Preceptor did not get their support when he went to Beijing was not because of their conscience, but simply because the Imperial Preceptor did not satisfy their appetite...

Facing Hu Ma, who seemed to be making some sarcastic remarks, the old lady of the Li family looked calm and calm.

After waiting for a long while, he slowly said: "What do you think?"

"Of the eight scenic spots in Huangquan, two are left, which is enough for you to share."

"Besides, how can it be a simple matter for you to fight against the ten surnames? But if you are willing to help us and help us overcome the obstacles on the bridge, not only will the world be in your hands, but also if you want to establish a new emperor and drive away Tai Sui, it will not be easy. It will be soon..."

"..."

There was endless temptation in her words, but Hu Ma suddenly stopped smiling, looked at her seriously, and said, "It's impossible."

The old lady of the Li family was slightly startled and lost her voice: "Why?"

"Because you still don't understand our plan..."

Hu Ma let out a long sigh, raised his hand to touch his forehead, and said: "If we want to fight against Tai Sui, we must gather the power of the world and the will of the people to fight against that huge monster without leaving any way out. , fight for a chance of survival.”

"Now that your destiny has not come true, you will come here to ask for this and that, and dream about living gods..."

At this point, he even had a look of desolation and ridicule on his face: "Oh, you keep five kilograms and I keep five kilograms. We have divided them up before we even started. So why are we fighting with Tai Sui?"
