Twilight Boundary Chapter 542

Chapter 542 Shadow Lives in a City

If you are not afraid of ghost crying, you will be afraid of laughing. This night, Mingzhou Fucheng, Leng Buding ate so scared that the whole city made people feel heartbroken.

The Truth Cult members who stayed in the city also hurriedly sent people out, but as soon as Qingbanzi beat them, those little devils disappeared long ago, leaving only the trembling people in the city and a strange red light. Lanterns were hung high on the archway.

Looking at the countless closed doors and windows and the occasional cries from the distance, they were trembling with anger: "So bold, so bold, the crime is at work, is this unreasonable?"

Now they came from Guanzhou, ambitious, recruiting troops, money and food. They were going to do something big, but unexpectedly, they met the gang of food bandits in the mountains first. The general's name came out to grab food, and he was already very angry.

But in the end, I didn't take those people in the mountains too seriously. After all, it was a ragtag group of people who gathered a group of experts with unique skills. It was easy to clean up such a group of people.

But if you want to recruit these people, just relying on a little money and the reputation of the Truth Religion is far from enough. In the final analysis, you have to rely on the most tangible things:

Blood food.

But for this group of Shinrikyo who had already been settled in Mingzhou Prefecture, and could even be said to have prepared blood meals just for them, after hearing that the Red Lantern Club was so tough, not giving them a cent, they even openly provoked them. By then, he was already stunned.

What else is there to say?

Originally, we agreed to visit him at noon the next day, but now he was eager to go to Zhumen Town in the evening. However, if he went out of the city at night, there would be an ambush, so he held back for the time being.

However, I had been holding my anger for half the night, and wanted to bulldoze Zhumen Town directly the next day, but I didn't expect that on this very next day:

There is a plague...

This plague came so unexpectedly that at least half of the people in the city were frightened by the food last night and fell groggy and sick when they woke up in the morning.

This disease is not that severe, and it is not fatal. It just makes people dizzy and restless. Even taking a breath seems to be suppressed and uneven. The whole city, even the sellers on both sides of the street, I picked a sign selling liquor but couldn't even open the door.

Looking at it for a moment, it seemed like an empty city.

"The plague came so suddenly. Could it be that someone poisoned it? Or maybe someone set up an altar in the city and invited the **** of plague to come over?"

The Truth Cult was shocked and angry, but they couldn't care about anything else for the time being. They immediately sent people to investigate, and sent a team of people to forcefully invite the Five Ghosts shopkeeper from Cao Xin Tang.

Now that the little boss of the Holy Hand in Caoxin Hall is not here, the shopkeeper of the Five Ghosts has no intention of competing with the Truth Cult, so he has to come. After coming over to take a look, he sneered, waved his hands and left: "It's not a plague, it's not Someone poisoned it."

“We, Cao Xintang, can't control this matter. You'd better go and invite some more skilled people to come over…”

The people of the Truth Sect were a little angry, but the shopkeeper of Cao Xin Tang was so arrogant and what he said was hard to understand. However, the countless nobles who had surrendered to them all came to ask questions, so they had no choice but to offer a reward. Various experts in Mingzhou Prefecture came forward to take a look.

With the heavy reward, there are naturally talented people. Soon a fortune teller who was passing by Mingzhou Prefecture was recruited into the government office. He simply said: "There is no plague here, but it is much worse than the plague..."

“Someone used something to shadow the whole city…”

“The shadow is stuck?”

The leader of the Truth Sect who was responsible for handling this matter was immediately taken aback.

Inside the doorway, there are shadows, suppressions, nightmares, restraints, and even mutual restraints, all of which have different meanings. Only the Harmful Head Doorway knows this best, but most others have heard of it, but they are just very surprised. .

"This is a whole city of people. How can anyone with such ability influence the people of this city?"

“Haha, of course, the things that can influence the people of this city can only be refined from the things that have once benefited a city..."

The fortune teller gave a bitter smile and sighed: "I have traveled all over the country for so many years, but I have never seen anyone with such courage..."

"It's one thing to be able to use such a powerful magic, but it's another thing to dare to use it. Even if the person who casts the magic is not afraid of sin, hurts Tianhe, and dies when ghosts and gods seek his life, this old man who harms his family is Ancestor, I'm afraid I'm going to send someone to get him..."

With a bitter laugh, he did not say much, nor did he accept the recruitment and reward from the Truth Religion. He just pointed out the key and waited to see how the Truth Religion would deal with it.

But at this moment, an urgent message was suddenly delivered from the direction of Laoyin Mountain. However, the altar masters and leaders who were leading troops in front to defeat the gang of grain bandits sent little envoys one after another. He said that his soldiers and horses suddenly lost their morale and were completely defeated.

The soldiers and horses under their command were all given by noble men in the city. In terms of physical strength, they are better than those in the mountains who can't even eat enough coarse grains. Therefore, although the grain bandits in the mountains have been powerful recently, they can barely stop them. .

But now it seems that all the people under my command are wilting. They can't get up in the morning. Even if they insist on getting up with a whip, they are all listless. Let alone going into battle. In this way, the enemy troops are too lazy to rush over. Hiding...

"It's just that the people in this city fell. How come they also affected the soldiers and horses sent out?"

The General of Destiny of the Truth Religion's eyes were already burning with anxiety. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became: “How dare you be so domineering, such a red-lantern lady and a little crime lord?”

… “So good at bullying...”

But earlier, when the news reached Zhumen Town, the consequences were obviously more serious. When the potato was burnt in the early hours of the morning and Dai Ye brought the news back, the entire Red Lantern Club was thrown into chaos. .

The Red Lantern Empress didn't know what was going on. She just heard that the Truth Sect was going to send people to fight. She was angry and anxious, and her right protector was not around, so she was almost crying from anger.

The Truth Religion is too overbearing. They say there is no more blood food. The remaining one or two hundred jars are given to you, but you don't want them. What else do you want?

Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi was extremely angry: "We have said that we can give them all the remaining blood food, but the Truth Cult actually doesn't want it and insists on coming to fight?"

“You...you brought all the words?”

“Isn't it?”

Digua Shao also wiped away tears and said: "Sister, when I go there, I will tell them carefully that we don't want to give the blood food. It was stolen. They haven't been cleared of the suspicion of the Truth Cult. They pretend not to know. Isn't this too much?”

"But in the end, not only did they not understand, but they looked down on me because of the lack of blood and food. They said that we were the ones to be beaten. They even demolished the temple of the Red Lantern Lady and took her back to them to be their foot-washers!"

Protector Zuo was immediately furious: "They are so bold!"

"No matter how unsatisfactory we are, we are still the Red Lantern Lady. How can we be their footwashers?"

Digua Shao said: "Yes, sister, we can't bear it anymore. There are three to five hundred men in the meeting. Just call them over and have a fight with them..."

The Zuo Protector Shen Hongzhi, if he had enough time, could probably guess that something was not right, but now he couldn't care less, he just said with a grimace: "With that group of people, what else do you expect? After hearing this If the Truth Sect is going to attack, I'm afraid they'll run away as early as possible.”

“What the hell?”

Diguashao was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Zhumen Town, which was obviously a little empty, before he realized what he was doing, and hurriedly held Protector Zuo's hand and said, "Sister, don't worry, I won't run away, I'll stay here and make progress with you." retreat…"

The Protector Zuo was immediately moved and sighed: "What a good sister..."

“It's just that, as a last resort, we have to leave if we should. It's just a pain for us, the Red Lantern Lady…”

　　…“…She really can't leave.”

"What?"

At this time, in Zhuangzi in Qingshi Town, Hu Ma ordered Di Guashao to do things and believed in her ability. She was drinking tea leisurely and waiting for the opportunity.

Unexpectedly, before the results of the sweet potato burning business came over, he unexpectedly welcomed a guest, Xu Xiangzhu from the Red Lantern Club, who ran to the village at noon, taking his old slave and a A pretty and enchanting woman, looking at the dusty world.

As soon as he entered Zhuangzi, he went to the water tank to take a ladle of water and drank, saying, "It's a big deal."

"The Truth Cult is going to attack our Red Light Club in the name of blood food. They will attack us at noon today. Everyone in the club who can run away has fled. Those who are well-informed set out before dawn yesterday..."

Hu Ma was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then stood up and responded: "Then Uncle Xu..."

“I was the one who set out before dawn yesterday…”

Xu Xiangzhu drank half the gourd of water and handed it to the old slave beside him. Then he said to Hu Ma, "Do you have any fast horses in your village? I have to go back to the mountains to take shelter first."

'No, if such a big incense owner like you has run away, what will we, the red lantern empress, do? '

Hu Ma was dumbfounded when he heard this. He asked Digua Shao to put more pressure on the Red Lantern Club and shoulder the responsibilities. Why did this **** just break up the Red Lantern Club?

Just as I was feeling strange, I saw at a glance that Xiao Hongtang, who had gone to the city to inquire about information, had also returned. He hurriedly greeted Li Wazi: "Let me make some food for Uncle Xu first. Uncle Xu, do you remember? When we first joined the club, he helped us of…"

Then he comforted Master Xu Xiang not to be anxious and to eat something before going into the mountain. Then he found a reason to arrange the animals and came to the stables. Hearing Xiao Hongtang describe what happened in Mingzhou City, he felt a little numb all of a sudden. :

“Plague?”

　　Earlier, I let Digua Shao mess up Mingzhou, but I didn't let her destroy Mingzhou...

It was only after further questioning that I realized that it was not a plague. I guess burning sweet potatoes was a way of punishing souls, and I didn't have the ability to plague a whole city. After asking about the specific situation in detail, I finally understood: "This Did you ladies use that blessing evil spirit treasure?"
