Twilight Boundary: Chapter 111 Juehu Village
Chapter 111: Extinct Village
"who?"
A sudden shout of a question instantly dispelled the mysterious and secluded atmosphere in the place.
During the scene, the people in Dayangzhai hurriedly turned around and saw a group of old and young men in simple clothes, carrying sticks and hoes in their hands, rushing over in a menacing manner.
The leader was an old man wearing a sheepskin hat and carrying a simple knife in his hand.
His dark face turned red with anger, and he cursed: "You came here to offer sacrifices to the forest without saying a word. What do you mean?"
"Do you, Dayang Village, want to take away the blessings of all the surrounding villages?"
“Or do you want to attract some bad things and harm all of us who are trying to make a living in this old forest?”
…”
Seeing that they came with bad intentions, the villagers who came from Dayang Village also jumped up one after another and picked up the guy.
Even the elderly patriarch took out the pole that he had just brought the offerings to, pulled his neck and shouted at the other party:
“Old Sheeppi, what do you mean?”
“We didn’t go to burn incense at the gate of your village. Are you bringing someone here because you want to fight?”
…”
“So what if we fight?”
As soon as the old Yangpi stretched out his hand, the people around him lifted up the guy and shouted, "It's you, Danyangzhai, who didn't follow the rules first."
“If you don’t leave us a way to survive, I’ll fight for you!”
…”
"broken…"
Seeing that the two sides were at war with each other, they were about to fight even if they disagreed.
Hu Ma felt worried.
In this village, there are people who follow rules and etiquette, and there are also people who get into trouble at the slightest disagreement, and there are even people who use swords and guns for some ridiculous reasons.
Because if you meet someone alone, you might be able to give in to one of them first and try to show some kindness, but when it comes to the village, you can’t tell clearly.
If you can't say a word, just have a fight first.
Moreover, this kind of fight between villages can be deadly.
In the past, there were legitimate reasons for fighting between villages over water sources, land, and the ownership of Master Tai Sui.
But there are also cases where they started fighting because they suspected that the children in your village had stolen the cattle from our village, which was so stupid and they couldn't explain it clearly.
A melee broke out, and several people in each village died. Only then did they realize that the cows had gone to eat grass in the valley.
So he was very angry after being misunderstood as stealing cattle, so he went to look for him again, but he couldn't get out of the other side's stronghold because he was riding a tiger, and he couldn't recognize it, so he beat him again.
Several more people died.
A misunderstanding arose, which actually led to a direct feud.
Between villages, talk about human relations.
There is a truth to it, but to be honest, there are not many. Helping the manager or not helping the relatives can only be done after you have reached a certain level. In the village, there will only be complaints.
We haven’t figured out the situation of Huma yet, but we don’t want a few people to die over this first.
When he was anxious, he looked at the second master, only to see that the second master had already come forward to greet him and was standing guard between the people on both sides.
The second master is tall and has long legs, and the fire is strong. He stands between the people on both sides, which feels very oppressive.
But he was not aggressive, and said to the old man wearing a sheepskin hat: "Don't panic, don't panic, old sheepskin brother, what's wrong with you? Why can't you say it properly first?"
“It’s easy to say, I’ll come over later and you’ve all finished the sacrifice...”
The old sheeppi said angrily: "Originally, you, Dayang Village, have been blessed, and you have come out to offer sacrifices to the forest. If all the blessings in the forest are robbed by you, Dayang Village, then let us drink from the northwest wind? If someone hadn't prepared it in advance Come and tell me, I didn’t even know you were a thief!”
“Who is so quick-tongued that he comes to you to make trouble?”
When the second master heard this, he also frowned and said, "Isn't this pure nonsense?"
“Look who this is?”
…”
With that said, Hu Ma waved to Hu Ma, and Hu Ma also walked up and stood next to the second master.
The second master said to Lao Yangpi: "This is Hu Ma, the grandson of the wandering ghost mother-in-law. He was lost in the woods earlier, and you guys from Mang Village helped to find him."
"Now that he is well and promising, he has just joined the Red Lantern Lady Club and learned his skills. He was also favored by the nobles and promoted him to a manager!"
"But no matter how well he does, he can't forget his roots when he returns to the village..."
“Earlier, in order to light the stove, he recognized his godmother, and now this person is here to take him to sacrifice to his godmother.”
“Isn’t this enough?”
…”
That old Yangpi was immediately speechless by the second master's words.
The old patriarch of Dayangzhaizi is such a thief. He doesn't know that going out to offer sacrifices in the forest can easily lead to trouble.
No matter whether your Dayang village has the qualifications to offer sacrifices to Linzi, as long as you take the lead, some people in other villages will be unhappy.
But he had anticipated this and had thought up his words in advance, just to silence others.
If old Mr. Yangpi follows this saying, he will not be able to criticize people at all, but he also accepts death and ignores this problem.
He just said to Hu Ma: "Boy, do you still recognize your old grandpa Sheepskin?" "When my mother-in-law left, we kowtowed in the past. I have seen you. Your mother-in-law is a good person, and we in Mang Village also recognize her, but One code equals one code, what are your plans, do we still know?"
"You want to sacrifice to the forest and be in the limelight, that's fine."
"But you can't come here to sacrifice the willow tree first. If you want to sacrifice, you will sacrifice the entire village!"
…”
“Dead households village?”
Leng Buding said this name from his mouth, and the surroundings suddenly became sinister and windy.
The light seemed to have dimmed a lot, and the sound of the wind around them was filled with chills. Everyone present felt a little frightened in their hearts.
Even the second master suddenly changed his tone and whispered: "Brother Yangpi, are you going too far?"
"How old is he, and you want him to go to Juehu Village?"
…”
Lao Yangpi did not look at Hu Ma, but looked at the second master and said: "You have come to offer sacrifices to Linzi, so why can't you go to Juehu Village?"
“He is my mother-in-law’s grandson, shouldn’t he go to Juehu Village?”
…”
The second master hesitated and said nothing for a moment, and even the old patriarch behind him looked troubled and his momentum was not that strong.
Seeing their reactions and hearing this weird name, Hu Ma felt slightly curious and raised her head to cast a questioning look at the second master.
If it weren't for the fact that the two sides were quarreling at this moment, I would have asked directly.
The second master also understood Hu Ma's curiosity, and saw that the old sheepskin man refused to give in. Moreover, now that they had received the letter, they hurried over and belonged to the vanguard.
Perhaps someone will arrive after staying for a while, and the number of people will increase and they will make a lot of noise. If one of them is not handled well, it will become a melee between villages.
After a slight hesitation, he said to Lao Yangpi: "Brother, don't be anxious yet, I have something to explain.
Seeing Lao Yangpi nodding, he pulled Hu Ma aside and whispered: "You were sick before and were confused. You can't remember the past. The Juehu Village this person mentioned was something your mother-in-law had to deal with before. It’s a big deal, but it’s very evil.”
“It’s said to be an extinct village, but it’s actually a dead village.”
"This village was originally called Shixia Village, right next to Mang Village. During those years of famine, every village and village had no food. The people in Shixia Village discovered a kind of Tai Sui, which looked like a white Tai Sui. Then he would cut it and take it home to eat."
"It turned out that it was not Bai Taisui, but an evil thing. All the people in the village were killed by this thing. After death, they were unwilling to accept it. They were full of ghosts and disturbed the surrounding villages."
“It was your mother-in-law who went over and helped suppress the evil spirits and seal off the village.”
"But your mother-in-law also said at the time that the people in this village were all poor people, and we couldn't disperse them, so she just sealed the village to prevent them from causing trouble. She thought that after a few years, their grievances would be eliminated, and then we could think about it again. Let's send them away..."
“But I didn’t expect that before the time was up, your mother-in-law would...”
"well…"
…”
At this point, he also sighed and said: "Mang Village is the closest to the extinct village, and I have always been afraid that they will come out to cause trouble again. Old Yangpi is not capable enough and can't think of a solution. This has always been a worry in their village. With…”
“Is it because your mother-in-law stayed here?”
Hearing this, Hu Ma also understood the reason why the old sheep belt came to make trouble.
The shopkeeper said earlier that ghosts are the ones most affected by karma. This is actually not true at all.
Mother-in-law originally had nothing to do with that village, but just because she helped, the cause and effect became involved.
After pondering for a while, he said to the second master: "I am the grandson of my mother-in-law. It would be fine if I didn't learn the skills. But now that I have learned the skills, I am still in the limelight. They are also afraid that I will not admit this, so they come to make trouble, but it doesn't matter. , I should naturally help solve the problem left behind by my mother-in-law."
“Second Master, I’m thinking, if that doesn’t work, let’s follow him and go to that village first, shall we?”
…”
When the second master heard this, he suddenly felt worried and said: "You have only learned this skill for a few days, can you solve this?"
"just looking."
Hu Ma said: "Logically speaking, I should be the one to resolve the issue of my mother-in-law's stay, but I will definitely not make any guarantee to them."
The second master reacted for a moment, looking at Hu Ma with a somewhat pleased look in his eyes, and praised:
“You, boy, are indeed a thief, with a very bright mind!”
…”
I am willing to go and have a look, just to show that I am not shirking this responsibility and that I am responsible.
But if it is guaranteed, it is a debt.
Huma doesn't owe anyone casually, but the relationship between this needs to be understood by the second master.
“Grandpa Yangpi, the matter of that extinct village is the matter of all the neighbors in Laoyin Mountain.”
After following the second master back, Hu Ma said to the old Yangpi: "My mother-in-law was kind-hearted and helped seal off the evil spirits in that village. Now that my mother-in-law is gone, I also want to go over and see if I can help, but I can't It’s far worse than my mother-in-law, but I don’t dare to guarantee it!”
“Good boy, if you can think of going there and taking a look, that’s fine…”
Hearing what Hu Ma said, the old Yangpi suddenly seemed to be a different person, with a grateful smile on his face.
Looking over it, it means that the child of the mother-in-law accepts the blame.
As long as he is a person who accepts old scores, there is no fear of him being in the limelight in this forest.
In fact, they were worried about this the last time they went to express condolences. After all, the only one who could solve the problem of the desolate village was the mother-in-law. What would happen if she was gone?
But seeing that Hu Ma was a small person, it was difficult to speak out. Now that he saw that he was making a difference, he had some hope again.
