Chapter 158 The villain

 Is he the guy who killed the whole family?

Hu Ma looked at it and couldn't help being surprised.

Young Master Lu tried his best to recruit these wandering people to come and refine the treasure. There are two reasons. First, these wandering people have no follow-up, but something has happened. A few died, a few disappeared, and no one was there. Report to the official, nothing will happen.

 Secondly, no matter how powerful a person is, they are more or less stronger than ordinary people. After being controlled, they can always use them easily.

But this Young Master Lu had other people's ideas in mind, but he only underestimated this man. He looked honest and honest, but in fact he was a fierce person, so he made a temporary decision not to let him go, but just borrowed his fierceness to fight against the Ma family ancestral hall. Evil ghost, let them both lose.

They just deliberately sealed the door and blocked him outside the ancestral hall, just with the idea that he could die together with those evil ghosts.

But who would have thought that he could hold out against so many evil spirits in the Ma family ancestral hall by himself with only half of the murderous knife?

Looking at him now, nothing happened to him, but there was an astonishing ferocity in his eyes.

The outside of the ancestral hall, which was full of evil ghosts just now, is now quiet and quiet, with no wind blowing at all, which is in sharp contrast to the strange and cold aura on his body.

 Hu Ma doesn’t have the ghost-watching method in the Soul Punishing Sect, so he doesn’t know how many ghosts are following him around him now.

But based on the intuition of just one glance, I felt that the ferocious coldness on his body when I first saw him was several times more powerful. Is it possible that after such a calculation, he is more terrifying than before?

 For a moment, his breathing stopped slightly, and all three pillars of life were inserted into the incense burner.

Huma didn’t know how to describe it specifically. Logically speaking, the man named Wang was actually just an ordinary person.

　　Although he has killed people and has the ghosts around him, he has never learned any crafts and does not know how to use fists or weapons. He does not know how to control the ghosts around him.

As a New Year watcher, I still have a knife in my hand. If I really want to use my hand, I can kill him with one knife. But now I am standing face to face with him separated by a low wall, but I still feel a little frightened and dizzy in my heart. In the meantime, there seemed to be endless evil ghosts rushing toward him.

From the corner of his eye, he even caught a glimpse of Xiao Hongtang running away in fright as soon as this person appeared, jumping over the wall in a flash, and then sticking out half of her little head to look at herself.

"calm down!"

Several scary thoughts quickly flashed through Hu Ma's mind, but in the end she forced a smile on her face, cupped her hands to him, and said: "Brother Wang, we have all been deceived so miserably. …”

“The boss has run away, and those of us who make money are dead, injured, and a few are injured. We don’t even know where our souls have gone.”

　　　…”

 “It’s not a lie either…”

The man named Wang had a dull expression at first, looking at Hu Ma nonchalantly through a wall. When Hu Ma gave a helpless smile, he seemed to be sure that he was with her, and his face gradually showed his honesty. smile.

He looked at the Jianghu man with the yellow paper on his face, and then at the old monkey dead on the ground, and then said to Hu Ma calmly: "I have at least two hundred taels of silver."

 “It’s a pity that no one pays the final payment anymore.”

　　　…”

As he spoke, he slowly turned around and seemed to be leaving.

Hu Ma was also slightly troubled. Looking at the man's back, he mustered up the courage and suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

The dull man turned his head, still with that naive smile on his face, and looked at Hu Ma with some confusion. Hu Ma sighed, took out the other half of the knife from the donkey cart, and held it from a distance. He threw it over and said, "I'll give it to you."

"This is a good thing that Master Lu found. It should be useful to you. If you go back and forge the two pieces together, the knife will be valuable and can be worth the remaining money."

　　　…”

The dull man watched the half-cut knife fall at his feet, and then looked at his own knife before he knew what it meant.

 Slowly a stiff smile appeared on his face, and he said to Hu Ma: "Thank you!"

"Earlier you helped us speak up, and now you are thinking about the money I deserve. It shows that you are really a good person..."

　　　…”

 Speaking, he picked up the half-cut knife on the ground and put it into his arms. He still held the other half in his hand. He smiled at Hu Ma and went down the mountain.

Hu Ma was stunned after hearing what he said. She couldn't remember when she had spoken to him.

　　After a moment of reaction, I suddenly realized that when I first met Young Master Lu with them, Young Master Lu was very rude to others. In order to get ahead, I slandered the young master and left a good impression on him.

For a moment, I wanted to stop him, leave a name, and establish friendship, but after some hesitation, I held back.

 This is also a man of God, he may be useful for something in the future.

 However, Hu Ma was really a little afraid of him, so it was better not to have any contact with him from now on.

Turning to look at the dull man walking down the mountain road, there were ghosts behind him. I don't know how many ghostly creatures followed him. I'm afraid they were no better than the old fire pond in Dayangzhai. Hu Ma also thought for a long time. He sighed slowly.

This world is too restless, and it may provoke a powerful person. Moreover, although this world has not been baptized by the information explosion, it still has a sophisticated ruthlessness and shrewdness.

Just like the eldest young man of the Lu family, if I hadn’t known his background in advance, who would have been tricked in the end would still not know! Another example is this fierce man, who seems to have never learned any skills, but who knew he would be so afraid of people?

 “Brother Huma…”

 When the man disappeared, Hu Ma was about to turn around and go about his business when he heard a timid cry from beside him.

I saw that Xiao Hongtang, the unfaithful person, was back. Now she was still looking at the road down the mountain with her eyes wide open, as if she was timid, and her little hand was holding the skirt of her clothes.

 “What is the situation of that person?”

Hu Ma asked subconsciously, not expecting that Xiao Hongtang would really know.

Xiao Hongtang should be able to see how many things were following that person, but she didn't know exactly. She was just too stressed and wanted to ask casually.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Hongtang subconsciously replied: "Ghost."

"Um?"

Hu Ma was startled for a moment and looked at Xiao Hongtang: "What the hell?"

Xiao Hongtang blinked and kept staring at the road down the mountain. He just said: "It's just a ghost..."

 “The ghost...the ghost who followed the tiger?”

Hu Ma suddenly remembered that when she was in the village, she had heard from the second master that if a tiger eats a human, it will be followed by ghosts. The ghosts will attract strangers for the tiger and offer them to the tiger to eat. .

 The man with the surname Wang is following him, are he a ghost?

 But he is clearly a human being, and people are also surrounded by ghosts?

I was suspicious for a moment, but I couldn’t explain it clearly if I asked Xiao Hongtang again. I could only remember this question for the time being and save it for the future to ask someone knowledgeable.

After confirming that the man had gone far, he sighed in his heart, took the docile donkey next to him, put it on again, took the reins, and counted the things on the cart. , then left the ancestral hall step by step and came down the mountain road.

He knew where the sweet potatoes were burned now. On the other side of Majiawa, there was the place where their master planted the treasure.

 To be precise, the battle between their senior brothers and sisters is not over yet.

In order to get the treasure, they need to break the method left by their master. Now there is still one last method left for sweet potato burning, so she needs to break it with her senior brother.

 The two of them finally arrived at the old tomb in Majiawa, broke the law, and took the treasure into their hands. For her, this matter was truly complete.

 But my responsibilities have been done, so I don’t have to worry about the things there.

Not only can't you help, but you have to fight if you encounter them.

Although he and Diguashao cooperated in this matter, on the surface, the two of them had nothing to do with each other, and they could even be considered enemies.

Now, I can only pretend to be a charlatan who has been cheated, go back with a lot of resentment, and work hard to play out the subsequent scene.

Of course, even if I don’t act, it is reasonable to say that the matter this time is hidden, and the possibility of leaking the news is unlikely, but after all, I am the "senior" of sweet potato roasting, and I will certainly consider things more carefully than her.

Just now at the Ma Family Ancestral Hall, it seemed that it was already late at night and nothing could be seen in the mist. But now when we got down the mountain, we realized that the sky was not completely dark yet, and there was still a trace of sunshine at the foot of the mountain that had not faded.

Hu Ma left the gloomy place. Being illuminated by the rays of sunset, she felt her body warm slightly. She took a long breath and felt like she was a human being again.

He sat on the donkey cart and slowly returned to Wutong Town while counting.

He had already set his sights on this big car. There were many old items on the car, which in the eyes of others might not be valuable or even rotten.

 But for me who want to make my New Year's Book unique, they are all good things that I may not be able to find even with money.

Just like the brazier that Young Master Lu used to burn paper figurines, even if he made money for such a thing, he still had to look for it everywhere and find a suitable high price to buy it. Now that he can get it directly, it can be regarded as a small thing. Made a fortune.

There should be a lot of similar things on this donkey cart. After I returned to the inn, I took a good inventory. Maybe there were other things that could be used.

Those that are inappropriate and unsafe can be burned altogether.

When we arrived at Wutong Town, it was already dark, and all the doors in the inn were closed, so Hu Ma banged them open. The waiter who came over with the oil lamp was shocked when he saw Hu Ma, and he quickly raised the oil lamp and shined it at Hu Ma. , see if there is a shadow behind him.

But he was afraid that Hu Ma had died outside, and what came back now was a lonely ghost who was reluctant to part with his luggage.

 “What photo?”

Hu Ma glared at him and said angrily: "Take my donkey and cart to the backyard and feed them."

“Bring me hot water to wash my face, and bring me anything to eat.”
