"The red lantern shines through the night; everything is peaceful..."
At that same moment, Hu Ma had already picked up the red lantern and was leading Zhou Datong, along with Liang and Zhu, out.
A long shout echoed, and the red light illuminated the oppressive night.
They had to come out; the boss had arrived.
The technique pointed out by Brother Er Guotou, though a bit insidious, was particularly effective.
The old shopkeeper hadn't taught him how to summon the Red Lantern Lady. Having already decided to let Hu Ma die in his stead, although he superficially instructed him to do his utmost to keep the lantern from extinguishing, in truth, he least wished for the Red Lantern Lady's arrival.
This was something Hu Ma could gradually figure out on his own. The old shopkeeper kept saying he wanted Hu Ma to avenge him, but if it were truly just revenge, there might have been a chance for Hu Ma to survive.
