Twilight Boundary Chapter 252

Chapter 252: Skills on the altar

“Auntie, something is wrong.”

　　After killing the evil ghost that came to explore the way, Hu Ma was ready to see what other tricks the opponent had.

More importantly, after they all entered the game and figured out their opponents' confidence, they invited the Red Lantern Lady to eliminate them in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, after the other party tested it once, before waiting for them to make any other moves, Hu Ma, who was sitting on the altar, gradually felt extremely uncomfortable all over, as if the clothes were wrapped too tightly, and there was always a feeling of being pinched around her neck. A feeling of constriction.

He pulled at the hem of his clothes a few times, but the feeling still lingered.

The night wind blowing around the altar has become colder at some point. It even feels like a cold and bone-gnawing feeling, and there is also a slight fishy smell in the wind.

Looking back several times, I couldn't see what was happening around me, and I felt extremely ugly. I looked down at the altar, and the light of the oil lamp was flickering on and off.

He turned around to ask, but before he could speak, he was suddenly startled.

Turning his head suddenly, he saw the objects placed on his altar shaking and falling, as if something invisible had suddenly jumped onto the altar and disturbed the things placed on his altar.

“The other party used a dirty trick.”

Aunt Zhang also noticed it, with a somewhat solemn expression on her slightly dark face. She looked around first and said in a low voice: "These guys don't care about opponents. We started a fight and wanted to fight with them, but they didn't do it first." Some dirty tricks were used."

“Those who want to come to the other side are harmful to the first door, and they are using evil methods to ruin the feng shui of the place where we set up the altar.”

“We set up the altar here and originally chose a good place, but he did something and turned it into a dangerous place for us.”

Hu Ma frowned and whispered: "What should we do?"

“Look for the protector.”

Agu Zhang whispered: "When we usually go to the altar, if conditions permit, we will find a protector or a strongman, just to guard against these unexpected things."

“Dharma protector?”

Hu Ma was startled for a moment: "Do we still have Dharma protectors?"

“Of course.”

Aunt Zhang said in a low voice: "We ghosts all raise little angels. When the altar is set up, the little angels are our protectors!"

Hu Ma understood immediately and found it interesting. Together with Aunt Zhang, she burned incense and the aroma floated out. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Hongtang was already squatting in front of the altar, staring with wide eyes. .

After a while, in the night not far away, the headless kid also stretched out his arms and groped over.

Hu Ma suddenly felt helpless and said to Xiao Hongtang: "Give me your head!"

“I didn't take it!”

Xiao Hongtang took out her little basket and opened the cloth to show Hu Ma. There were dried meat, wavy drums, and some strange things in it, but there was no paper head.

Hu Ma was a little surprised, so she heard Xiao Hongtang say: "He just fell down the slope. I saw it, but I didn't pick it up."

"ah?"

Hu Ma was a little embarrassed: "Then why don't you hold it for him?"

Xiao Hongtang said: "Brother Huma won't let me pick it up."

Hu Ma was speechless for a moment, but there was nothing wrong with what she said. Xiao Hongtang was a good and obedient child.

Taking a deep breath, he didn't care to say this, and said to Xiao Hongtang seriously: "Brother is doing serious things, and someone is making trouble for me. You are my protector now. Xiao Hongtang, take it with you, and you can go around together." See if there is anything causing trouble."

“Found it…beat it!”

“Hit me hard!”

Xiao Hongtang listened to Hu Ma's words and blinked in surprise.

Hu Ma took a deep look at Xiao Hongtang and said: "The matter is done, there is something good to eat!"

“…By the way, take it to get its head back before you do anything!”

Xiao Hongtang suddenly became excited, nodded vigorously, turned around and ran away in a gust of wind. After running a few steps, she came back. As soon as the headless kid reached the altar, she pulled her away again.

Aunt Zhang looked at Hu Ma in surprise and sighed in a low voice: "Brother the shopkeeper, you really have the talent to be a ghost walker."

“This seems to be something in the blood...”

Hu Madu sighed lowly and sat in front of the altar. He also felt very fresh. His ears and eyes were all moved, and he took in all the movements around him.

The purpose of this trip was to learn about ghost walking. Perhaps compared with the content in the Zhensui book, the things in the ghost walking world are somewhat superficial, but they are like keys. Every time I understand a little bit more, I will learn more about the town. Sui Shu is a little more understanding.

Now that I have set up an altar, it seems that a new door has been opened, and every movement and silence gives me a fresh experience.

how to say? This is a completely different skill from that of a person who keeps the year on year. The person who keeps the year on the year lives from the outside in, but when the ghost man sets up the altar, it seems to have become the center of this area, from the inside out.

“Auntie, after setting up the altar, there is a Dharma ground within three feet. Is this also important?”

Experiencing it carefully in his heart, he did not forget to ask.

“He who has just raised the altar is three feet tall.”

Aunt Zhang said: "The deeper the Tao is, the thicker the magic power is, and it can reach six feet and six, and then nine feet and nine. The wider the scope, the greater the ability."

"So…"

Listening to what she said, Hu Ma suddenly thought: 'Earlier, I used the law in the Zhensui book to arrest the evil ghost in blue across half the country. What kind of standard was that? '

While I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard strange movement around me.

Xiao Hongtang and the headless kid were the guardians on the altar. As soon as they left, the strange and dead surroundings suddenly became lively. From time to time, there were strange movements in the night wind, and there were chases. Fight.

Hu Ma hurriedly asked Aunt Zhang to open her eyes with the mud from the coffin bottom. She looked over hard and saw Xiao Hongtang waving her old fist under the starlight in the distance, vaguely fighting back and forth with a cat on the hillside. It screamed and rolled all the way from east to west.

On the other side, a headless little devil was jumping up and down under a crooked-neck tree in the distance, as if reaching for something, and his head was knocked off.

But due to their disturbance, the altar was temporarily at peace. Hu Ma sat on the altar earlier, and the feeling that his neck was being strangled, or that something was running around him, had also disappeared.

Now I feel empty all of a sudden. Feeling the magic power on the altar, my spirit is full and I am ready to fight.

But the forest ahead was dark, and the opponent still didn't make any moves. Hu Ma also became a little anxious for a moment, but she just warned herself to hold back.

He has learned the skills of a watcher, who pays attention to taking the initiative and seizing the opportunity. Now when he gets up from the altar to cast spells, he has to act passively, but he also needs to change his habits.

He wanted to say something, but suddenly he was startled, grabbed the mahogany sword, and pointed it under Aunt Zhang's skirt.

Agu Zhang quickly backed away and saw a snake picked out on the tip of the flax sword.

Everyone was startled, and when they looked forward, they heard a rustling sound, and no one knew how many snakes were swimming over.

Suddenly, I felt my scalp was numb.

I don't know how many people are naturally afraid of snakes, but flax is one of them.

Especially now at night, this world is not like the previous life, with street lights everywhere. Now I can hear rustling in my ears, and I don't know how many snakes and insects are crawling around. The oil lamp in front of me only illuminates a small area. , but also vaguely saw many shaking shadows.

Even the handlebars and the guys behind him exclaimed, and it seemed that they also realized how powerful it was.

These **** are just fighting with each other, and they actually let snakes bite people?

At this moment, Hu Ma was almost startled and cursed. Traveling in the world was really different from usual. The people he met in this world could spread lime if they could, release snakes if they could release them, and use poison if they could. Just use poison and don't follow any rules at all...

He cursed secretly in his heart, stretched out his hand fiercely, and pressed it against his ribs. Suddenly his tongue exploded with spring thunder, and he gave a sharp shout.

　　Like thunder, like the sound of toads.

Everyone around them subconsciously covered their ears, and even the snakes and insects that crawled in front of them froze.

Huma immediately swiped his mahogany sword and swept away the snakes and insects that crawled in front of him.

Although it looked like seven or eight snakes had been swept away, which was quite a lot, there was still a constant rustling sound all around, the weeds were falling one after another, and there was a faint fishy smell in the night wind. It was obvious that there were not many venomous snakes approaching.

“Brother, shopkeeper, don't panic, the other party is testing us!”

At this moment, Aunt Zhang, who had been startled just now, came to her senses and reminded her in a low voice: "This is the first time for me to get up from the altar. My ears and eyes are not sharp enough, so I was touched by this snake and swam to the altar. forward."

"When we walk on the altar as ghosts, every word and action is Dharma, and every move is magic. Even snakes and insects can't get close to us."

“The other party is trying to trick you into getting up for the first time, and wants to see if you are not careful!”

Huma was indeed a little surprised to be unexpectedly surrounded by snakes and insects, but after hearing Agu Zhang's words, she immediately calmed down and listened attentively.

Sure enough, being on the altar, I feel like I have sharp ears and eyes. When I listen carefully, I can hear the rustling around me, and I can clearly hear any snakes and insects swimming around.

Among them, the three feet inside the altar are the most sensitive, and can even "hear" what the snakes and insects look like.

He breathed a low voice and said, "Agu, how do you deal with this snake?"

Aunt Zhang was also a little surprised that Hu Ma calmed down so quickly, and said softly: "I will teach you a snake-repelling spell, just recite it silently."

As he spoke, he whispered it in Hu Ma's ear. Hu Ma then held his breath and concentrated, sat upright on the stage, and recited in a low voice: "The sun rises in the east, brilliant and brilliant, reporting snakes and insects, fleeing far away and hiding deep..."

It is strange to say that it is just a mantra, but as Hu Ma recited it, it spread around the altar with the altar as the center.

On the hillside and in the wild fields, the squirming and hissing snakes and insects seemed to be affected by something. They swam out of the grass one after another and swam toward an open space in front of the altar, one by one. , entangled into a ball, making people's scalp numb when looking at it.

In the forest, the snake driver was blowing the bamboo whistle vigorously, but the bamboo whistle suddenly became mute.

His expression also changed slightly, and he turned to look at Cui Ganniang: "Ganniang, who have you provoked? That altar is really ruthless!"
