Chapter 70 When the Dharma is Transmitted (Third Update)

"Untie it!"

The old shopkeeper looked at it coldly and waved his hand.

The waiters, with the shopkeeper beside them, were brave enough to set up a ladder and untie the waiter.

Hu Ma watched from the side, feeling a little suspicious.

I originally thought that the shopkeeper had taken action, but he had to deal with the evil spirit that killed the waiter and help others get revenge.

Unexpectedly, he asked the waiter to untie him and take him back, then turned around and left without paying any attention to him.

"It's all fate."

As if he could read Hu Ma's thoughts, the shopkeeper explained lightly: "It turns out that thing is no longer there. He has become a substitute and will be guarding here. To get rid of the evil spirits here, I am only getting rid of him."

"Guys, if you pass by here on business in the future, you should be careful. He won't miss the old relationship again."

Hu Ma understood, and her heart sank for a moment.

Looking for a substitute?

There is indeed something here, but after this thing hurt the guy last night, it was free and left here.

On the contrary, this guy will guard here in his place from now on...

Torture.

Everyone is already dead, but this torture is just the beginning.

When he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a chill running down his spine, as if someone was looking at him viciously from behind. He turned his head sharply, but he saw nothing behind him, and nothing could be seen at all.

Two people were assigned to carry the boy back to Zhuangzi. The others continued to search, but it took them two hours to finally hear someone shouting in front of him.

Others hurriedly came over, and near the foot of Laoyin Mountain, they built a terraced field on the slope together, and saw Xu Ji who had long since died in the weeds.

I recognized him through his clothes, but his appearance was unbearable.

I saw him huddled between a bunch of dry thorns, and I don’t know how he got in. There were traces of being chewed everywhere on his body. A bag of pond ash was scattered around randomly. The face was about to be recognized.

His face was full of horror.

Seeing this scene, not only did the guys feel cold, but even shopkeeper Wu frowned.

After a long time, he sighed: "If I had known this, why would I be so cruel in the first place?"

Hu Ma had an inexplicable feeling. He seemed to be slightly relieved after seeing the wounds on Xu Ji's body.

An idea came to his mind: "He has been worried that I killed Xu Ji?"

This is really too much...

...If I killed him with my own hands, you would definitely not find the body.

Hu Ma understood early on that if he wanted to ensure that he obtained the law, the safest thing was not to win the battle, but to leave the old shopkeeper with only one choice.

If given the chance, I might do it myself.

But unexpectedly, Xu Ji had many enemies and was caught by those enemies first.

Moreover, that Huangxian family was really a bit of a thief. He killed people immediately and threw the bodies at the foot of Laoyin Mountain, as if it was a demonstration.

We just killed your friend and went to Laoyin Mountain. Do you have the ability to come to me?

"Let's go!"

The old shopkeeper also glanced at Xu Ji's body with regret, shook his head, and sighed softly: "It's not in vain that you died, but those thugs may have run away long ago. I just want to avenge you, so I'm looking for you."

Don’t touch them.”

"When I got to your father, he said the same thing!"

With that said, he waved his hand and asked the guys to take him back to Zhuangzi and buy a coffin to calm him down.

When they arrived at Zhuangzi, all the young men were in a low mood and remained silent.

Some were heartbroken that their fingers had been chewed to the bone, while others still couldn't believe that Xu Ji was dead.

What's more, now I feel panic-stricken, thinking that as a clerk in the Red Lantern Lady Club, I am afraid that I will have to deal with such evil spirits for the rest of my life, even if I don't know what fate is waiting for me!

"Go to Carpenter Liu at the entrance of the town and ask him to come quickly and measure your length."

Shopkeeper Wu returned to Zhuangzi and entered the inner courtyard, where Hu Ma directly took charge of the aftermath.

He asked Zhou Datong to take out the black ointment that the second master had saved and give it to the guys who had their fingers chewed off.

This black ointment is great for treating trauma, but the muscles on the fingers are gone. No one knows whether they can grow back.

After that, he looked at Li Wazi again, but he was helpless.

But at this moment, the boy from the inner courtyard came out and gave Hu Ma a pill.

Hu Ma knew that this was what the shopkeeper meant, so he asked someone to dissolve the water and gave it to Li Wa, who actually woke up.

I'm just in a daze, I don't know if I'm scared out of my mind.

After that, Hu Ma personally stared at Carpenter Liu, measured the length and width of Xu Ji and the boy, urged him to go back and build the coffin, and temporarily parked the man in the warehouse.

After he arranged the tasks for the day for the undecided waiters, he returned to his room, washed his face, took the mahogany sword, went to the door of the inner courtyard, and knocked gently.

, report back on these arrangements.

"You arranged it very well, so you do it like this."

The old shopkeeper had no expression on his face and just said calmly: "The man burned it and left the ashes. He will take it back to their town in the spring of next year. Xu Ji doesn't need our attention until his family comes to pick him up."

"...If anyone else comes to pick him up."

"..."

"yes."

Hu Ma agreed, and presented the mahogany sword in his hands with both hands, saying: "This is Xu Ji's thing. Evil spirits were rampant last night, and I was afraid. After I picked it up, I used it first. Since his family is coming,

Take it, then this sword should be kept by the shopkeeper."

"You can keep it for now!"

But the shopkeeper waved his hand and said: "If his family wants it, he will give it to you. If he doesn't mention it, I will treat it as a reward to you."

"Can such a small thing be used as a favor?"

Hu Ma was thinking in her heart that those Huang Xians knew how to give this sword to her as a favor.

This shopkeeper also needs to be polite and polite.

He just chuckled in his heart, but still thanked him respectfully on his face, but he still stayed in the inner courtyard and was not in a hurry to leave.

"I know what you're thinking."

The old shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said to Hu Ma: "Since I agree with you, I will naturally teach you."

"After your night patrol, come to my place again!"

"..."

It wasn't until Hu Ma heard this that she finally felt relieved and bowed, "Thank you, shopkeeper."

"You were the one who solved the evil spirit. It should be passed on to you. What should I thank you for?"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled lightly, then looked at Hu Ma with a slightly cold look, and said: "Besides, you two have made it known to everyone, how can I break my promise?"

Hu Ma's face turned red and she resigned.

But even though she pretended to blush, she felt no guilt at all.

Before going out, I deliberately pointed out the matter of the old man to all the shopkeepers. I was originally afraid that the shopkeeper would do something else again. Everyone knew about this test, and the shopkeeper would not be able to find other excuses.

.

On this point, even Xu Ji had the same idea as him. Of course, the only difference between the two of them was that they both believed that they would get this opportunity.

When the matter reached its most critical moment, Hu Ma forced herself to remain calm.

After returning to the side room, I caught up on my sleep for a while and put the mahogany sword aside for Little Hongtang to grab and play with.

After sleeping for about two or three hours, it was already afternoon when I woke up.

As usual, he arranged for the men to feed the horses and sweep them, and carried red lanterns to watch the night. After everything was done, he walked towards the inner courtyard.

When I opened the door, I couldn't help but feel a little startled.

I saw Shopkeeper Wu sitting in the courtyard, surrounded by various oil lamps.

With tea in his hand, he looked at himself quietly and said, "Come here!"

Hu Ma took a deep breath and slowly took steps forward.

This ordinary little courtyard was filled with all kinds of oil lamps, which gave it a bit of an eerie feel. With the tip of your nose numb, you could smell the various burnt smells emitted by the different oil lamps.

The inexplicable atmosphere makes it difficult for people not to feel a sense of hidden crisis.

But Hu Ma knew that she was now facing the key method that could save her life, so she still walked in step by step.
To be continued...
