Twilight Boundary

"ah?"

Even Hu Ma didn't expect that the Li family's request was this. It felt ridiculous for a moment, but suddenly felt reasonable.

The Li family of Dongzi has lived here for generations, but after all, they also yearn for excitement. No matter how seclusive they are, it is impossible to be completely isolated from the outside world.

Just like a tribesman marries a wife and has children, can it still be digested internally?

Butler Zhou said before that his daughter married into the master's family. In fact, it can be seen that in order to get wives for the clan members, the Li family of Dongzi does not care about their status. Perhaps as long as they are destined and willing to stay, they will promise.

But it is easy to make people stay, but it is difficult to be willing to stay. How many people can bear the hardship every day?

Of course, from his words, we could vaguely see another attitude of the Li family, that is, with the return of Xiang Yatou, the people of this clan are probably ready to not be able to go out.

After hearing his request, Madam Han also laughed and said softly: "This is easy to talk about."

"The disciples and grandsons of our acting sect make a living from this profession. How dare we refuse to agree to such a good employer?"

"I'll go talk to them and arrange for Taiwanese dramas to come over every month."

"..."

"That's good, thank you Madam Han for taking care of her..."

The head of the Li family bowed repeatedly and said with a smile: "We have invited several theater and juggling troupes in the past, but they always got scared and refused to come."

"But with Lady Han's instructions, they will definitely believe us..."

"..."

The two chatted in detail before he walked over. It could be seen that the smile on his face was genuine.

Seeing that everyone else had thanked him one by one, and finally arrived at Hu Ma, he stood up politely, greeted the other party, and looked at the box containing the copper coins calmly. It's already empty...

"Mr. Hu, I have met the master and listened to his story. I know that you saved the lives of our entire clan."

The new head of the Li family in the cave said in a low voice: "I dare not forget this great kindness, and it is not something I can repay with ordinary things, but please come with me, sir, so that the Li family can show their kindness!"

"Why should you be polite when you have to do what you have to do?"

Hu Ma said, and followed him, but came to a house not far away. Most of the houses here were just like farmhouses, low and simple, with mud walls and thatched roofs. Only this one was exquisitely and elegantly built. , like a bookstore, just looking at it, it is already very old.

"This is the official residence that was built when my ancestors of the Li family came here. No one lives in it now. The younger generations just put up walls and put up grass to make do."

The person in charge of the Li family explained with a smile, and then asked Hu Ma to sit down. He also called a young man from the younger generation of the Li family who was waiting at the door and gave a few instructions, asking him to get the things cut from the back mountain. .

Hu Ma's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words "Golden Pattern Paste".

Can't?

But when the head of the Li family served tea and drank less than half a cup, he saw the younger member of the Li family walking in carrying two large baskets.

The basket was just an ordinary bamboo basket, but its belly was quite big, so it probably couldn't hold more than a hundred kilograms of things in one basket. The poles were bent under the weight, so you can imagine how heavy the things inside were.

He picked it out, placed it by the wall, then said goodbye and left.

Hu Ma remained calm, but he lifted his nose slightly, and immediately smelled a very familiar smell. His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he was even more surprised.

But the head of the Li family did not look at the two big baskets. He just smiled at Hu Ma and said slightly apologetically: "Sir, I have been waiting for a long time."

"You have traveled thousands of miles to send my young lady back, and you have gone through so many dangers on the way. My Li family will remember it deeply in my heart, and I am not very grateful. It's just that this kindness is too great. If you repay it with gold, silver, and customary gifts, it will look like I am The Li family is too rude..."

"..."

'I don't really mind, I can forgive you...'

Hu Ma thought in her heart, but of course she couldn't say it on her face. She just smiled modestly and said, "I've heard this a lot. It's really the Li family who are being polite."

"Sending Miss Xiangyu back was the right thing to do. Besides, no one knew that the Li family was such a wealthy family before. Maybe I shouldn't have done anything at that time. I just revised a letter and handed it over, and the Li family would naturally take her back. .”

"..."

"Sir, you are too modest..."

The head of the Li family smiled, and suddenly said in a low voice: "I have asked the master, and the master also said that it is difficult to thank Mr. for your kindness with common etiquette. In life, one's ability is the most important, and Mr. Those who eat blood food..."

After a slight pause, he looked at Hu Ma and said: "In addition, the master also saw that Mr. Hu is from the lineage of people who watch the year, right?"

Hu Ma didn't expect that the topic would suddenly turn here. She was slightly startled, looked into the other person's eyes, and said, "Does the Li family also know how to keep the year old?"

"I don't understand that."

The manager smiled and said: "Our Li family actually doesn't have much ability. These abilities were all given by Guidongzi."

"It's really out. I can't tell you whether it will be useful or not."

"But in Lingshou Mansion, or in Anzhou, the dead people will all come to the ghost cave."

"Among these people, there are naturally some Sui Shou people. If they were Shou Sui people who entered the mansion, their souls would not be here. However, there are quite a few Shou Sui Shou people who have not yet entered the Mansion but have unique skills."

"The Li family is responsible for welcoming these people, serving them their last meal, and listening to their last words. After staying here for a long time, of course they have saved a lot of things from various sects. Maybe... "

"...Some of them are suitable for people who watch the New Year, and I won't dislike them."

"..."

"What?"

When the Li family mentioned the New Year Watcher just now, Hu Ma was quite calm. The Li family in the cave was so mysterious that it naturally attracted many people in the family.

Just like Butler Zhou, wasn't he also rescued by the Li family and willing to come and serve?

Since it can attract people from the trick sect, people from the shousui sect must also be there. It is probably not difficult for them to give them some pointers before entering the house.

But he never expected that the head of the Li family would actually say such words...

The shock in my heart was hard to describe in words.

The Dongzi Li family is actually more profound and terrifying than I imagined...

Not to mention anything else, if those who died in Anzhou really came to Guidongzi, and the Li family had the ability to ask some secrets and Dharma from these dead people, these generations would , how much has the Li family accumulated?

Dharma represents ability, secret, and even more...

For a moment, Hu Ma even felt that perhaps the Dongzi Li family's background was too great to be imagined.

Earlier in Mingzhou, when I first learned about the Guidongzi Li family, I just thought that the Guidongzi Li family had a solid foundation and was a bit stronger than the Red Lantern Lady Society, but it must not be as strong as the Red Lantern Lady Society.

but now……

...Well, even if Little Red Lantern works hard for another hundred and eighty years, it may not be enough, right?

At this moment, he did not deliberately hide it, but really showed the surprised expression on his face.

"Actually speaking, we should give all the inheritance methods of Shou Sui to the master. This is not enough."

Seeing Hu Ma's reaction, the head of the Li family sighed lowly and said: "After all, the old man who has entered the mansion will not come to Guidongzi, but after all, there are some who know the method of entering the mansion, but they still can't." There are no new year-watchers who have entered the mansion."

"It's just that the method of entering the house has too much cause and effect, and it doesn't belong to our Li family. If I give it to sir, I'm afraid that the ancestors of the Shou Sui people will come to reason with me."

"So, I can only show you a few unique skills and let sir see if there are any suitable ones..."

"..."

"That's enough, that's enough..."

Hu Ma was quite surprised when she heard this.

Of course, people who stay on top of the year pay attention to their unique skills. It can be said that if you have some unique skills on your body, you will be able to use your skills when something goes wrong.

Today, I have refined my five internal organs, but I only have two unique skills in total. One is exchanged for my life, and the other is a unique skill that I exchanged for my life, and was exchanged for kindness, and then obtained from others.

But what the Li family means is that it’s a unique skill for people who watch the New Year’s Eve. They have everything here?

And pick and choose...

...We outside watchers are not picky at all. As long as they have unique skills, they are all welcome...

In addition, he also mentioned the method of entering the mansion. In other words, it's not that they don't have this method, but they are just worried that if they give it to them, they will make the ancestors of the watchers dissatisfied?

There are such things, so how strong is the foundation of the Li family?

While thinking in surprise, he also subconsciously looked at the two big baskets by the wall. He had just smelled the smell of Tai Sui's flesh and blood in those two big baskets. If the Li family planned to use the Sui Sui people's method to Thank myself, the things in that basket are...

"Oh, those."

The boss smiled and said: "That is a local product prepared by my lady for my husband. It was cut from the back mountain. The Li family relies on eating this every day to be able to stay near this ghost cave."

"When sir leaves, just take it with you."

"..."

"What the hell?"

Hu Ma was even more shocked. Is there a blood food mine in the back of the Li family?

The Li family of Dongzi, who had a simple meal every day and even set up a banquet, made me feel a little disgusted by someone who came from a village, but they actually lived in a blood food mine?

Shocked by the Dongzi Li family's handwriting and the unintentionally revealed secret, Hu Ma reacted briefly, and then immediately showed...

...Strong refusal and refusal: "It can't be done..."

"We didn't come here for this. How could we accept such a heavy gift from you? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, take this thing back quickly..."

"..."

The person in charge of the Li family also said hurriedly: "If you want anything, sir, be sure to accept it, otherwise you will blame me for not doing things well..."

"No, no."

"You want what you want."

"..."

The originally peaceful conversation suddenly became intense. Hu Ma believed that it was what should be done and refused to accept the resignation. The new head of the Li family must express this feeling.

You push, I give in, you push again, I give in.

In the end, Hu Ma lost...
