Exorcism

After an hour of practice, Mu Xingqiu did not leave silently as usual, but chose to stay and expressed his doubts, "I have been practicing for more than half a month, but I have not made any progress. I can only Stabilizing on the fifth level of the illusion, what is the meaning of this? "

Zuo Liuying waited for a while before raising his eyes, as if he had been in a daze before, "Meaning? For those people you can completely remember once you meet them, you still visit them often. What's the point?"

Mu Xingqiu was stunned, "Because... we are friends. We need to meet to strengthen our relationship and help each other. Moreover, the only thing we remember after meeting is our appearance. Everyone is changing..." He looked at the people who had not changed for hundreds of years. First, "Most people are changing, and sometimes they need to get to know each other again. For example, Daliang. If I want to accept his change of marrying a wife, having children, and becoming a fat man, I have to visit him often."

Zuo Liuying let out a long hum, as if he had some realization, "What you said makes sense. The illusion of mind and heart has also changed, so you have to practice every day."

"But what I want to say is that I can't feel its changes. After practicing for an hour every day, I'm still the same as the first day. I can't stay on the sixth or seventh level for a long time. It's neither lengthened nor shortened. After that, I'm still the same. Exhausted."

Zuo Liuying was silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words, but when he spoke, he still didn't hide anything, "I'm not talking about you, it's me. I can see some new changes in the mental illusion technique every day, and I think it is very useful."

Ever since Mu Xingqiu came back from Luanjing Mountain, his impression of Zuo Liuying was much better than before, but now looking at that handsome face of 14 years old, he couldn't help but think that he didn't know that he had tried his best to Fighting, can you beat the head of the Forbidden Secret Division who is still injured?

"Do you think it's possible for us to join forces?" Mu Xingqiu took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Zuo Liuying said that he wanted to borrow his potential, but he watched for more than half a month. But no attempt has been made.

"Not yet. Your potential is relatively shy. So far, I haven't seen it show up." Zuo Liuying's clear eyes showed a hint of reproach, "You have to work hard. If you have power but can't use it, it's better than nothing."

"Yes, I will work hard. ׺°"˜˜`"°º×" Mu Xingqiu wanted to ask how to work hard. Is it to practice repeatedly every day? But he gave up immediately, not wanting to get any more specious answers.

Mu Xingqiu had already reached the stairs, and Zuo Liuying suddenly said: "There is a copy of "Qian Kun Ding" on the third floor of the tower. You should read it."

"Thank you." Mu Xingqiu was a little surprised that Zuo Liuying actually took the initiative to offer help. This was an extremely rare thing.

Most of Pangshan's book collection was destroyed. After the temporary Taiyuan was established, the high-ranking Taoist priests restored part of the collection with their superior memory.

Some manuscripts were also obtained from other orthodox traditions, and the Langhuan blessed land was rebuilt, but the scale was not as large as before.

The layout of the third floor of the tower was almost exactly the same as the seventh floor of the old Forbidden Secret Tower. Mu Xingqiu couldn't help but feel warm after walking in. Back then, he and Fangfang spent many days and nights together in Langhuanfudi, looking for books together, reading separately, and occasionally raising their heads at the same time and smiling at each other...

He didn't dare to think about it any more. It is dangerous for him to recall the past before his love crisis is over.

Mu Xingqiu silently thought about the title of "Qian Kun Ding". Not long after, the book he wanted appeared on the desk on the far right. Not one volume, but a set of dozens of volumes, stacked together to a height of seven or eight feet.

Mu Xingqiu had never seen such a thick technique. He was horrified. He walked over and opened it and realized that he had made a mistake. What Zuo Liuying showed him was not a technique at all, but various agreements and rules established by the Taoist tradition for hundreds of thousands of years. This was only part of it, there were a lot more. Supplementary agreements are not included.

Mu Xingqiu was confused. After reading it for a while, he suddenly realized that Zuo Liuying was letting him understand the behavioral boundaries of Taoist priests.

The head of the Forbidden Secret Division obviously realized that his connections with outsiders were too close.

A few days ago, Mu Xingqiu went to Duanliu City for a banquet. He had a secret fight with the Great Talisman Master Liang Shiji. He never mentioned it to anyone.

He decided to read these boring articles honestly. If he wanted to seek justice from Long Binhui, he had to ensure his own safety first.

But this book was too boring. Mu Xingqiu simply skipped the agreement between the Nine Dao Traditions and quickly flipped through it, only looking for the articles related to the Long Binhui. Even so, he couldn't read it in a short time, so he decided to From now on, I will take time to read a little bit every day, and try to finish it roughly before going to the Imperial Capital at the end of the month.

It was already afternoon when he returned to his residence, and he was surprised to see Xiao Hao practicing boxing on his own.

"Fellow Taoist, how long do I have to practice before I can learn new techniques? I'm bored to death by practicing boxing every day." There is no so-called master-disciple relationship in Taoism, so Xiaopeng calls him "Fellow Taoist" like others.

"After half a year." Based on his own experience, Mu Xingqiu felt that only when the foundation of boxing is particularly solid can he learn the Nine Transformations of the Beast.

"Oh." Xiaohao didn't bother and continued to practice boxing.

Mu Xingqiu watched on the side, wondering why the young demon who had already escaped chose such a disciple for the Nianxin Department. Was she simply repaying her kindness, or did she have other motives?

The bald man flew over listlessly. He was very unhappy because he was not taken to the dinner last time. "Someone invites you to dinner again."

"who?"

"If it's someone who knows you, maybe I can take you with me."

The bald man was overjoyed, "Then I guess it's Huang Zhao, we know each other very well."

"Huang Zhao?" Mu Xingqiu did not have this name in his memory. As a Taoist priest, he was very sure of this.

"The omen of omen is the one... oh, the junior official in Duanliu City, the one who is scared to death every time he fights."

"Captain Huang?" Mu Xingqiu finally remembered that he was a short and slightly fat officer who was the leader of the Xuanfu Army in Duanliu City. He had personally executed the city guard Chen Zhiwei and forced him to question him. A lot of good stuff comes out.

Huang Zhao is now a minor official in the princess's mansion, staying away from officialdom to avoid Chen Zhiwei's revenge. His invitation to Mu Xingqiu this time represents not only himself, but also the princess.

He believed that General Mu must know it well, so he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that he was also carrying a head and a young Taoist priest.

Bald Man must follow him into the city and agree to be packed in the package, leaving a hole for him to peek out. As for Xiao Hao, she has never asked Mu Xingqiu for his opinion. When the time comes, she will reach out calmly. Arm, "Let's go, don't fly too fast, I'm dizzy."

Huang Zhao had already prepared a banquet at home and ordered no one from his family to come in so as not to be frightened by the bald man. In addition to himself, he was also accompanied by Mr. Pan, the veteran who was most trusted by the princess.

The Taoist priest did not drink alcohol and ate very little. Only Bald Man sniffed the dishes without touching a bite. Huang Zhao was spared many polite greetings. After greetings, he chatted with Bald Man and Xiao Hao, leaving Sanye Pan and General Mu to chat. .

Mr. Pan is much older and thinner. The damage caused by the Battle of Duanliu City will never heal. He said, "It is not convenient for Her Royal Highness to have guests, so she entrusted me to convey a few words to the catechumens."

"I also have something to ask the princess for help." Mu Xingqiu wanted to take Liu Ding and three others to the imperial capital, and he had to rely on the princess's cover.

"No problem, I can agree on behalf of Her Royal Highness the Princess." Mr. Pan lowered his voice, "Did the catechumens have a fight with the talisman master named Liang?"

"Um."

"Haha, you have embarrassed him. There are always people singing "The General's Journey" in and outside the city these days. Huang Fujun can't hold it back at all."

"It's Liang Shiji who wants to cause trouble for me. Is he seeking revenge for Qu Xungui?" Mu Xingqiu asked.

"Liang Shiji was Qu Xungui's confidant, but he had other motives for provoking the catechumens." Mr. Pan paused for a moment, "Long Bin of the Imperial Palace would tamper with the battle situation and pretend to claim military merit. He could hide this from the superiors but not from the subordinates. But no matter how angry the people below are, they can't go up to heaven to hear it. The catechumens are an exception. You were a hero in that war and a Pangshan Taoist priest. You are qualified to meet the emperor and the chief talisman master of Longbinhui. This is Qu Xungui is most afraid of this, so as soon as he heard that you were going to the imperial capital, he immediately sent Liang Shiji to test your attitude. "

"Then he will definitely not be satisfied."

"Do the catechumens really want to expose the truth in the imperial capital?"

Mu Xingqiu did not answer this question, "The princess also personally participated in the battle of Duanliu City and is about to marry the emperor's grandson. She is more qualified than me to meet the emperor. Aren't Qu Xungui worried about her?"

Mr. Pan smiled and said, "The princess gained Qu Xungui's trust a few years ago. Otherwise, she would not have been able to win this marriage."

Mu Xingqiu nodded. He had already guessed that the princess's marriage was not a helpless move as imagined by Daliang, but the result of the princess's operation. "Yes, I want the world to see the truth, not just for me, but also for Those unjust cultivators are fighting for Pangshan. Recovering the Xijie Kingdom and Pangshan ancestral land requires the support of the Shengfu Dynasty, but Qu Xungui has become an obstacle. "

This is the conclusion that Mu Xingqiu drew from "Qian Kun Ding": If he only clears the grievances of non-commercial cultivators, not only will he not get the support of the orthodox, but he may also be criticized or even punished. He must combine the entire plan with the huge The interests of Mt.

Mr. Pan laughed twice, attracting the attention of Bald Man and Xiaohao. He looked very happy, "Her Royal Highness the Princess was indeed right about the catechumens. She said that Xijie Kingdom is the place where Pangshan selects disciples, so Xijie Country is the place where Pangshan selects his disciples." Jieguo's interests are completely consistent with Pangshan's. Going to the imperial capital will affect the life and death of Xijieguo. She hopes to join forces with the catechumen again. In her original words, "You and I still have the value of using each other." In a few years, I am afraid that Xijie Kingdom will not be able to reach the level of catechumens.'"

Pan Sanye was reluctant to convey this too straightforward statement, but Mu Xingqiu understood the meaning of this statement. "Using each other" was what the princess said when the two met for the first time. He smiled and said, "Then Let’s join forces and fight again.”

Pan Sanye's expression suddenly became serious, "Her Highness the Princess will do her best to fulfill all the requirements of the catechumen. She only has one condition. She hopes that the catechumen can save the life of Her Royal Highness. At present, he is in danger in the imperial capital, and only relies on the power of Xi Jieguo. It’s no longer enough to ensure his safety.”

"Xin Youtao?" Mu Xingqiu was really surprised.
