Twilight Boundary Chapter 41

Chapter 41 The Keeper

Hu Ma was slightly startled: "A year-old person?"

“Yes, it's not the person who keeps the New Year's money, it refers to a person in the family.”

Brother Erguotou said with a smile: "Keeping the New Year's Eve is a ghost, killing the head and punishing the soul... There are many evil things in the world, and there are many people who deal with these evil things. Because the methods and customs are different, there are many different ways."

“This person who watches the year is one of them.”

Hu Ma's heart was enlightened. No wonder the second master's ability was so different from that of her mother-in-law.

The two of them belong to different disciplines.

So, after a moment's thought, he hurriedly asked: "Then, how can I enter this doorway?"

“This topic is a bit more complicated.”

Erguotou smiled and said: "Brother, how many pillars of Taoism do you have now?"

“How many columns?”

Hu Ma hesitated for a moment, then remembered that her mother-in-law had also asked herself this question, and hurriedly asked: "Does this refer to the fragrance of our lives, or does this world talk about Taoism?"

“All.”

While Hu Ma was worried, the Erguotou man laughed when he heard this and patiently explained to him: "In this world, according to the fate of different people, individual behavior is judged by pillars."

“If a person is free from illness and disaster and lives to the age of twenty, his life is at its most prosperous. This fire has reached its peak and can drive away evil spirits and avoid evil spirits.”

“In the eyes of an expert, this line of work can be called a pillar.”

“Three pillars are the path of Jiazi.”

"But it seems more convenient for us reincarnations. The natal temple can see everything, and we can directly see the incense of destiny. If we get an incense stick, we have a pillar of Taoism."

"If there is less than one pillar, it can only be called fire, not the way."

"If you want to enter the door of being a New Year's Watcher, you must at least have a certain skill."

So it was like this, Hu Ma understood in her heart.

Now through eating blood Tai Sui every day, I have already achieved more than one and a half pillars, close to two pillars of Taoism.

In total, this is not reasonable, it is too fast.

In addition, Erguotou said that one can enter the door of the Sui Shoumen after one pillar of Dao, but her mother-in-law asked herself to enter after three pillars of Dao.

I think I also took into account the specialness of my body.

I knew in my heart that I was different from others in so many ways that I had to explain it, so I sighed on purpose: "I can't even reach half of it!"

"I seem to be a little different from you. It's not too late to think of things in my previous life, but I have been weak and sick since I was a child, and I almost couldn't be saved several times."

“The old lady was guarding the place, but she couldn't learn her skills because of her frailty. Finally, she lit a stove with an old miner, but because of her innate deficiencies, the heat was never strong.”

“It wasn't until half a year ago that I accidentally ate Tai Sui and opened a spiritual temple. You were the first reincarnated person I found…”

“What a real brother. Don't tell others so much about yourself next time.”

Erguotou smiled and warned, not doubting that he was there.

Humah's situation of being summoned into this world is quite explosive even among the group of reincarnated people who are said to be explosive.

"Um?"

Hu Ma followed his instructions and said, "Why?"

“It's better to be careful!”

Erguotou sighed and said: "My habits are different from that of the white wine lady. She is extremely cautious and never meets the reincarnated person. Although she saved my life before, I still don't even know what she looks like." have no idea."

“But I am different. I have to be careful, but I don't have to be so suspicious. Just pay more attention..."

　　…Of course, this is not asking you to imitate me.”

As he spoke, he changed the topic and became more serious. He warned: "The people in this world are very hostile to us, and they also have great powers. They are determined to find us. It would be bad if they discovered us."

"Therefore, reincarnated persons should help each other, but they should also abide by the principle of not seeing each other as much as possible. If there is anything that needs to be conveyed in reality, just let the ghosts deliver it."

“This is actually what I should have told you when I met you for the first time, but I was too anxious at the time.”

“The reincarnated people do not see each other?”

Hearing his words, Hu Ma's heart moved slightly.

I have a vague feeling that there are many similar people from the same world as me in this world.

But everyone knows that each other exists and can communicate, but they do not see each other...

"yes."

Erguotou said: "Of course it's just a principle, but when life is in danger, you don't care."

"I have met many of the reincarnated people I know, and even I have met a few..."

…“…I'm just telling you this principle.” …”

“If this is the case, then you should still pay attention...”

Hu Ma silently wrote it down in her heart, and then heard the Erguotou brother continue: "As for the situation you mentioned, it is not uncommon. The reincarnated people come from the same world and the same era, but in this world, there are It makes a world of difference.”

“Some people are born with rich clothes and fine food, and even the blood of Tai Sui can be eaten as food, and there are also people with great ability to help protect them..."

Hearing this, Hu Ma felt that this description was somewhat familiar.

Erguotou also sighed, changed the topic, and said: "But there are also people like you who are born with deficiencies, lack of nourishment, and were born in the remote and evil Laoyin Mountain. It is extremely difficult to understand your own situation. Why talk about anything else?"

“It's no wonder that the first thing you came into contact with was the method of keeping watch on the year.”

“But, I think those meat cutters just rely on the yang energy in themselves to resist the evil spirits. They dig a few coins into the ground to spend. Although it is the right way, it has also gone wrong.”

“Instead of saying that he is a person who watches the year, it is more appropriate to say that he is a person...”

Hu Ma knew that what he said was important, so he wrote it down one by one. At this moment, he was slightly startled: "Ren Zhu?"

"good."

Erguotou said: "Use all your Yang energy to fight against evil spirits. If you fight once, your Yang energy will be weakened by one point. If you learn some Yin methods, it is equivalent to using your own life to support those evil spirits."

"It's like a candle that is about to burn. If it burns for a while, its life will be reduced by one point, so it is called a 'human candle'!"

“Such people are not uncommon, and they are all pitiful people…”

Hu Ma listened carefully and said hurriedly: "This is the crooked way you said, so what is the right way?"

“Practice further and become a true year-keeper.”

Erguotou said: "Those Blood Food Gangs in the city, regardless of whether they are the Red Lantern Club, the Tsing Yi Gang, or the Basketmen, all those who make a living by cutting Tai Sui have enshrined some year-watchers."

“These people, who have been with Tai Sui all year round, are still light and healthy, and enjoy good fortune and longevity. This is because they have mastered some special methods of nourishing life.”

“Of course we don't know if it's true or not, but I've heard that some powerful New Year watchers can save even dead people by virtue of their good deeds...”

Hearing this, Hu Ma felt inexplicably moved.

Is this why my mother-in-law must continue to learn this method?

He felt a slight movement in his heart and lowered his voice: "This is indeed what I want to learn, but this way..."

Erguotou said: "If you really want to learn, you must first join the Blood Food Gang to get a chance."

Hu Ma hurriedly asked: "How can I get in?"

He had heard of the existence of the Blood Food Gang, but the people in the village respected and feared them, as if they were some great big shot, but he had never heard of any child being able to join the Blood Food Gang.

Erguotou pondered for a moment and said, "I can help you with this, but..."

“I have saved your life, but you still hesitate?”

Hu Ma was slightly dissatisfied, but her voice was as normal as she said with a smile: "How is it?"

Erguotou sighed: "It's just that this is too simple, but it's not enough for me to repay you for your life-saving grace..."

This man is really a kind man. It would be great if he could help me. Why should you consider the size of the favor?

“Don't underestimate the word 'favor'.”

Hu Ma was really surprised, but the Erguotou man explained with a smile: "The most precious currency between us reincarnations is human love!"

"You need to understand that there are no restrictions between us reincarnated people, and we dare not have real friendship. Even if we help each other and take care of each other, we are just a group of poor people hugging each other for warmth."

"However, everyone is working hard to survive, but they cannot focus on others. However, it will never be enough. There will be times when others need to save lives. Therefore, over the years, we have found that what we cherish most is It's a matter of favor.”

“For me, you saved my life, that is a great favor.”

"Whether I arrange for you to join the Red Light Club or help you solve a little trouble, it's not even a small effort. Speaking of which, the only way I can return this favor to you is to give you this method directly. That's…”

　　…“…I have to add another two pounds of blood Tai Sui!”

Hearing this, Hu Ma was suddenly a little surprised.

At one time I felt that using favors as currency was a bit whimsical, and at another time I felt that this was how it should be.

This does indeed explain why the white wine lady had to return three pieces of information to herself.

Is she also afraid that she may owe herself a favor unintentionally?

“For you, it's just a message that saved my life, but for me, it's a huge favor.”

Erguotou got serious when he said this, and said to Hu Ma: "If I stall with you, I'm afraid I will end up with another reincarnation in the future, and my favor will be worthless."

“So, brother, you don't have to be polite to me. Since you want to learn the skills of the New Year Watcher, I will help you find an opportunity...”

"Besides these, if you have any other questions, just come and ask me on a random day."

Hearing this, Hu Ma finally understood and hurriedly thanked him.

To connect, the incense of life was burned, and the two of them did not use it to chat. After a conversation, they both left.
