Twilight Boundary: Chapter 170 Sun Niuzi goes into battle
Chapter 170 Sun Niuzi goes into battle
In the end, Brother Erguotou is still cunning and cunning, and he does everything carefully...
Hu Ma didn’t expect that this would be the arrangement in the end. It not only saved him the time to go to the ring, but also helped him get a reward and earn a big favor.
He hurriedly helped the big shopkeeper, who looked two rounds older than him, up, and said sincerely: "Brother, please don't say that, it's all because of the powerful people in the club, and I just happened to bring some news. I dare not accept your worship."
Looking at the excitement and joy on the shopkeeper's face, it doesn't seem like his gratitude to him is fake.
This kind of thing about going to the ring, especially when the other party is calling for battle, even veterans like them are afraid.
I accepted his favor, and in the future, I can be considered to have my own friendship and connections among this group of old shopkeepers.
“Haha, you two have time to talk, let’s go now!”
At this time, the smiling right guardian had already waved his sleeves and said: "We have already arranged other things with people."
“Tonight, we have to win this group first!”
…”
Seeing that everyone's expressions became relaxed and they walked out together, Hu Ma was also a little curious: "I was called to the formation this night. Sweet Potato Shao can't catch up. It must be Sun Niuzi."
“This person’s abilities seem to be average, so what’s the sure way to win that they’re talking about?”
While thinking about it, he walked out and saw a group of people waiting outside from a distance, it was Yang Gong, Shen Dabangzi and others.
Seeing the concern on Yang Gong's face, Hu Ma wanted to go over and talk to him.
Before he could get closer, Leng Buding felt a wave of joy in his face, and a lame kid knelt down towards him.
“Mr. Hu is auspicious…”
…”
Before he finished speaking, Yang Gong kicked him out and cursed: "Scare me!"
“Normally you wouldn’t show up without burning incense, why are you so diligent now?”
…”
Not only him, but also Hu Ma was shocked.
A little ghost came out and kowtowed, and everyone was scared. But when they saw it was Yang Gong's little ghost, they couldn't help but laugh.
I touched it from my arms. I went out to do errands before and I still had some green food dried meat with me. I pinched a piece and threw it to it. I smiled and said: "Good luck, good luck. I really follow your good wishes now. I bumped into a big tree." Good luck."
“You’re too used to it…”
Yang Gong looked at it and complained to Hu Ma, but his expression was quite happy.
To put it bluntly, you can complain or scold your own little angel, but if others treat your little angel well, that means respecting yourself.
Looking at the lame kid happily holding the dried meat and eating it while hiding, he looked at Hu Ma: "The great luck path you mentioned is..."
“No need to go into the ring.”
Hu Ma came closer to him and whispered: "The people above are expecting me to do things for the meeting. At least I have a hard work and they want to reward me!"
I brought back news about the other party’s candidates, but let’s not talk about it for now, it’s already a secret.
"Very good…"
When Yang Gong heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. He finally relaxed and said with a smile, "This is worth celebrating."
"I'll be on duty later. Just wait for me. Let's have a drink together after the party is over."
…”
His careless temperament made Shen Dabang behind him frown, and Hu Ma also patted him hurriedly to signal him not to say such things.
It's certainly a good thing that it's not your turn to enter the ring, but if you say it in front of so many people, doesn't that mean that working for the Red Lantern Queen is a bad thing?
As he said that, the group of people walked towards the ring in the middle of the town, and saw that several round tables had been set up on both sides. Manager Xu was sitting on one of the tables, waving to Hu Ma from a distance.
Yang Gong and others sent flax over and then went on patrol.
In such a major event, although Yang Gong and the others have a high status, they still have to take on the job of patrolling and guarding, and they will not sit here to have a banquet.
The disciples of Baixiang were busy setting up the stove, serving dishes, and working as handymen.
Huma, on the other hand, is a shopkeeper who has risen from Qingxiang's disciples, and can sit on the tables on both sides to drink.
Hu Ma sat down and told Manager Xu that he did not need to go on stage. Manager Xu also had a smile on his face and introduced the people at the table to Hu Ma.
They all hold various positions in the city. Even the old man in Tsing Yi who took out the "ancestral plaster" to save Hu Ma's life during the day was also at the table. His surname was Qian. I heard Manager Xu and the others jokingly call him Lao Abacus, Hu Ma Shen. She looked at him deeply, and then she just served him a drink with a smile on her face and thanked him for saving her life.
“Easy to say, easy to say…”
Lao Abacus smiled and looked at Hu Ma's head with concern: "If you don't sleep well later, come to me for another patch. A blood food pill will be enough for the second patch..."
“You want to trick me again, right?”
Hu Ma thought: "The second post is half price."
“You wait, until twenty blood food pills are recovered from you, this matter will not be over…”
Of course, he was thinking about returning home, but he could only talk to them. The person that Manager Xu introduced to him now was exactly the one he had planned to earn money from when he left Zhuangzi before.
Now that I have met here and have a foundation of merit, I can save some money.
Of course you still have to spend money when you need to, but you don’t need to buy expensive gifts as a stepping stone as you planned before.
Sitting and talking, as dusk was approaching, there was a sound of a gong, and the lively voices on both sides of the ring suddenly disappeared, and everyone stood up and saluted. There are arrangements on both sides of the arena. On the Red Lantern Club's side, the guardians on the left and right brought a huge red lantern and hung it high on their side.
On the other side of the Tsing Yi Gang, a huge green cloth was spread out.
In the middle of the green cloth, a mask with a green face and fangs hangs, symbolizing the green-clothed evil ghost they worship.
After worshiping, everyone sat down, and Baixiang’s disciples began to shuttle around to serve food, and people on both sides also started eating and drinking.
But because the Tsing Yi Gang won for a while yesterday, and the winner was the one from the Red Lantern Club, so everyone was excited. Earlier, many people in the Tsing Yi Gang didn't look at themselves well, and they were all thinking about how to defect to the Red Lantern Club. , but now I find that my chances of winning have increased significantly.
Obviously, the drinking and talking on their side are louder than those at the Red Lantern Club.
"Whether it succeeds or not depends on whether this period tonight is stable."
Steward Xu also sighed in a low voice and expressed everyone's concerns.
If the Tsing Yi Gang wins again tonight, then the Red Lantern Club will win the rest, and it will only be a tie.
For the empress of the Red Lantern, who is already a very sophisticated person, this is already a very embarrassing thing.
They were worried about this and couldn't eat even if the meal was rich. Of course, for them, they had eaten for seven days and had no appetite. Hu Ma had been busy traveling these past few days and had a great appetite, so he ate happily for a while. He also toasted a few people with a glass of wine.
After three rounds of drinking, the sky was already dark. Suddenly there was another sound of gongs and drums, and everyone turned their heads at the same time.
On the Tsing Yi Gang side, a handsome man wearing Tsing Yi slowly walked onto the stage carrying a small tray.
Hu Ma was startled when she saw him. He was actually someone she had seen before.
Yang Gong's great contribution was taken from him when he met him in Niujiawan.
He walked onto the stage and sat on a futon on the stage. He glanced at the Red Lantern Club and said with a faint smile: "The fight yesterday was too **** and hurt the harmony between the two gangs. "
“I will call the formation today, but I don’t want to make it so ugly.”
“I brought a pot of good tea. I wonder if any of you would like to help me come up and have a drink with me?”
…”
Everyone at the Red Lantern Club looked depressed, and no one really believed his lies. The more calm he spoke, the more severe the moves he prepared.
After the other party called for formation, not far away, Zheng Xiangzhu took Sun Niuzi's hand and led him to the stage. He turned around and straightened his clothes, patted his shoulder gently, and looked at his eyes turning slightly red. , whispered: "Go on stage!"
Sun Niuzi's lips were trembling, as if there was something in his mouth. He wanted to speak, but couldn't.
After gritting his teeth, he walked up to the stage. His legs were trembling, and he tried to stand up. He bowed to the other party with a long salute:
“Brother, I’m here to greet you…”
…”
He spoke polite words, but his face was uglier than crying. When he spoke, it was more like he had something in his mouth and was slurred.
In fact, this already seems very rude and makes the Red Light Society lose face.
But the man in green didn't mind, he just smiled and invited him to sit down, clapped his hands, and there were servants behind him, who brought up a stove, which was full of charcoal and was burning. Iron kettle.
In front of everyone, he filled it with water, squatted on the stove, and went down silently. The young incense master in green smiled lightly and said:
“I invite brother to come up here to try the good tea I brought.”
“However, I’m not very good at it. I’ve been boiling it over and over, but I still can’t boil the pot of water. Brother, let’s see if there’s anything I can do about it?”
…”
For a moment, people on both sides held their breath, knowing that this was the end of the road.
Huma also looked at the stage curiously and saw a blazing fire. The flames jumped out from under the pot and burned extremely fiercely.
But the **** iron kettle has always been sitting steadily without any change.
Manager Xu next to him stretched out his head and whispered: "Shopkeeper Xiao Hu, can you tell what's going on here?"
Hu Ma said: "The water can't boil. Is there something wrong with the pot or the water?"
He remembered that in his previous life, there were many ways to prevent a pot of water from boiling, but he didn’t know what the young incense owner did.
“I don’t think so.”
Steward Xu shook his head slowly and said: "If that's the case, he is inferior. Once he sees the flaw, he loses."
“The Tsing Yi Gang has fought hard to win this round, and it won’t be that simple.”
…”
When I asked other people, they all frowned.
At this time, an old man sitting opposite Manager Xu lowered his voice and said to everyone: "This level is a bit difficult."
“I look at it, he must have used some method of harming the head.”
"This method is called the method of cooking rice and cooking meat undercooked. If this method is not broken, the pot of water will not be boiled even if it is boiled until dawn..."
…”
“Is there such a way?”
Hearing this, Hu Ma felt strange and even more curious.
Sun Niuzi, or rather what method did the upper echelons of the Red Lantern Club plan to use to defeat the opponent's tactics? And when they didn't know how the other party called the formation, how could they be sure that they could win this battle?
