Chapter 7 Tanuki for the Prince

[The book continues from the above, and the last book said that the old man of the palace told Mu Qingming where the divine drum he saw was. After being full of wine and food, and seeing off the old man of the palace, Mu Qingming and Mo Han rushed to the small fishing village where Han Damao's family was located. Soon found the unguarded ancestral hall, and quietly infiltrated the ancestral hall with only the doors and windows closed, looking for the whereabouts of the drum. The corpse woman who was brought out came to Xishan outside the city again and told Liu Yang a piece of news about the Mu family. On the edge of Dianchi Lake, Mu Qingming took out the divine drum from behind the tablet, and after some inspection and exploration, he noticed the magic power that had been sleeping in the valley for a long time, and after determining that the drum surface was made of a hundred illusions, he planned to change the tanuki for the prince. Make an identical fake drum in exchange for a real one. 】

The night wind howled on the western mountain, making the grass and trees bend over and sway to the left and right violently.

The strange stones in the small stone forest are not moving in the strong wind. It's just that when the strong wind swept over the strange stones, and the small holes made by the rainwater dripping through the stones for thousands of years, a burst of ghost crying wolf howls suddenly sounded, and drifted into the night sky with the wind.

A gust of wind with a fleeting afterimage whistling in the dark passage under the small stone forest, blowing out the lights on the stone wall where it passed, and galloping towards Liu Yang's stone room.

In an instant, the wind stopped in front of Liu Yang's stone chamber door, and spun rapidly in place. Shocked, the two disciples guarding the door were on full alert, and their right hands reached behind their waists, and they drew out the short knives that had been silent in their scabbards for a long time.

At the moment when the short knife was unsheathed and the cold light flashed under the lamp, the whirlwind suddenly disappeared and disappeared without a trace in an instant. A corpse woman dressed in black and a group of corpses appeared from it.

The two disciples, who were still so nervous that their palms were sweating, immediately relaxed, took a long breath, and after they both put away the short knife in their hands, one of the disciples shouted: "Corpse Woman, I beg you not to come so suddenly next time, we are so scared that we are about to pee out." ”。

The corpse woman snorted coldly, and the two eyes exposed on the black veil showed a look of disdain, and asked coldly: "Do you mean that I have to knock on the door next time I come?" But do you have a door to knock on in this stronghold? ”。

The tone, as always, was not soft and polite, full of ridicule.

The two disciples were speechless for a while, and they didn't know how to talk, so they could only turn around silently and push open the heavy huge stone door together.

The doorway rotated slowly, with a dull sound that broke the silence in the tunnel. The heavy stone door slowly pushed open.

Liu Yang now has absolute trust in the corpse bone woman, and he has already ordered it in advance, but whenever the corpse bone woman comes to the stronghold, he can take her to see Liu Yang without prior notice. And the corpse bone woman would not see anyone else here, so the two disciples did not talk nonsense, and directly pushed open the stone door of Liu Yang's residence.

The corpse woman who walked into the stone room immediately found that unlike the previous times, the cold in Liu Yang's house had weakened a lot today. In the depths of the house, in the lamp with a bronze viper on the stone case, under the faint light emitted by the lit bean lamp, I saw that Liu Yang had undergone earth-shaking changes.

The scales on the other party's body have grown a lot, but only one eye still emits a cold green light. The cold and evil qi that would emanate from the body at any time before was already restrained, and if she didn't use the perception technique, even if she was close at hand, the corpse bone woman would not be able to sense that the person on the other side contained yin evil in her body.

"It's really a three-day treat." The moment the door closed, the corpse woman standing in the room looked Liu Yang up and down, with a faint appreciation in her eyes: "You have practiced the qigong method I taught you, and you have already practiced it perfectly." ”。

"yes." Liu Yang, who nodded heavily, cast a grateful glance at the corpse bone woman: "Thanks to your qigong practice, I was not swallowed by the two different evil qi that I ingested one after another. ”。

After saying that, Liu Yang, who had already stood up, was about to invite the corpse woman to sit down, but the corpse woman had already put away her approving gaze, and her eyes became cold as ice again. Without waiting for Liu Yang to speak, she said again: "I don't have much time to come out this time, and I have to leave in a while." It's just good news to tell you about the Mu family. ”。

"What is it?" Liu Yang, who walked around the stone case and walked to the corpse bone woman, narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Do you remember what I told you earlier, the evil man who escaped from the heavily guarded dungeon?" The corpse woman glanced at Liu Yang, who was respectful to her.

"Of course I do." Liu Yang nodded again, and hurriedly said: "I haven't accepted new people recently, and I haven't let the followers secretly develop new believers, isn't it just to prevent this person?" ”。

"Well, I found out that this person does secretly have a lot of dealings with Mu Shan and his wife." The corpse woman who paused, had already turned to face the direction of the road, and the closed stone door took a big step.

She seems to be planning to leave.

Liu Yang, who stayed in place, was a little surprised, and he didn't know that the corpse bone woman was difficult to come out, and when he was confused just to say such a sentence, the corpse bone woman, who had already taken the second step, continued to move forward without looking back, and said in his mouth: "Although this person has a relationship with Mu Shanjun and his wife, and his escape is also suspicious, but he is not here for you and Changshengdao." The exact information is that he has fled to the northwest and has not moved south into central Yunnan. This should be good news for you. ”。

The black robe on her body swayed slightly with her steps, like black waves churning in front of Liu Yang's eyes. When the last word popped out of the corpse woman's mouth, Liu Yang's eyes were already wide.

He clearly saw the whole body of the corpse woman, and before the words could land, they turned into a white smoke, which quickly spread out behind the door like water on the ground, and then rushed out along the crack in the door when the words were completely on the ground.

In an instant, it disappeared without a trace, and there was not a trace of breath left.

This is the secret technique of his immortal path, which Liu Yang had performed in front of Miaotian's eyes at the beginning. It also got rid of the best at tracking.

Liu Yang, who opened his lips slightly but was speechless, was stunned in place, looked at the stone gate, and his eyes showed an incredible gaze, which did not disperse for a long time......

On the opposite side of the West Mountain, on the edge of Dianchi Lake, Mu Qingming, who sneaked into the ancestral hall of the small fishing village, tiptoed slightly, stretched out his right arm and walked towards the wooden handle behind the spiritual position.

The wooden handle is apparently recently lacquered, and the color is still bright.

He struck like lightning, grabbed the wooden handle and pulled it back in an instant, pulling out a rattle of wooden projectiles that were no more than the size of a palm, and had wires on both sides, and had not yet knocked down any spiritual position.

As the old man had said a few hours earlier, there was no painted pattern on the surface of the drum, only small black scales covering it.

The shape of this thing seems to be a rattle, but the dense scales on the black and silver drum surface make this drum feel a little weird no matter how you look at it.

Mo Han withdrew his gaze from looking around, staring at the rattle in Mu Qingming's hand, and frowned.

The more I looked at this drum, the more dazzling I felt, and the dense scales on the drum surface dazzled Mo Han after a while, blinked vigorously, shook his head at the same time, and hurriedly looked away.

Then she saw that in every spiritual position around her, there were wisps of faint blue light that were invisible to the naked eye, and at this time, after gushing out continuously, they turned into thousands of threads in mid-air, like wisps of thin silk threads, and wound towards the drum body and wooden handle in Mu Qingming's hand.

Mo Han recognized that those blue rays were filled with ghost energy, and they were the energy of the spirits. Looking at the form and behavior of the spirit energy, it seems to be some kind of protective spell for this drum.

Mo Han's eyes showed a little vigilance, he held his breath and waited for a while, and only after seeing that there was no movement around him was relieved. Then he used his mind to convey the sound and said to her husband, who was still playing with the rattle: "It seems that as long as you don't go out with the drum, nothing will happen." ”。

Mu Qingming nodded, and when Mo Han was wary of the rattle's protective charm, he had already quietly injected wisps of true qi into the drum.

At the moment when the real Qi entered the drum, the power in the drum that had been dormant for a long time and had been silent for a thousand years suddenly woke up. After a surging impact, there was no trace of the true Qi he had injected out of the drum.

That powerful and brutal force is the magic power obtained by Zhu Yushu's cultivation. The power that only exists in the sorcerer's body can drive witchcraft, override illusions and Gu worms, and can also go down to the yin, enter demons, and use spells to confine you to cure diseases.

And this power comes from the drum surface before and after the drum, and the power is rich and rich, and it has not been weakened by the passage of time. Mu Qingming's previous conjecture was correct, this power was just sleeping, not because of the passage of time and the dissipation or weakening.

"Is it a fantasy map?" Mo Han, who asked this, cast an expectant look at him.

"Yes." Mu Qingming, who trembled slightly, couldn't help but be excited, and did not use his mind to transmit the sound, but replied softly: "The snake scales of the black-scaled python can gather qi and absorb qi, so that the giant python can regulate its body temperature." Therefore, the magic power in the drum is still there and has not dissipated. ”。

Mo Han, who heard his words, was also excited, and his chest was filled with excitement. The treasure that he had been looking for for a long time was in front of him, and Mo Han was already a little eager to take this drum away. After a pause in the dark, she said to her husband, who was still staring at the rattle and frowning and pondering something, and said urgently: "Then you can see how to take it away from the protective charm." ”。

Even though he was excited, Mo Han still tried to keep his voice as low as possible so that he would not make too much noise.

Unexpectedly, just when Mo Han was overjoyed and excited, Mu Qingming shook his head silently.

Mo Han was suddenly stunned, for the first time, she didn't understand why her husband shook his head? There are no outsiders here, and although the protective charm does not know what the principle is, it is not difficult for the couple to break it silently for a moment.

Mo Han didn't know what Mu Qing was meditating, such a good opportunity didn't take this drum away?

"Once we take the drum away, the people in the village will know about it, and then we will desperately look for it, and the news will inevitably leak." Mu Qingming turned the drum in his hand back as it was, and under his wife's confused gaze, he then whispered: "When the time comes, the Immortal Dao will know that we are looking for this drum when it detects a little bit of wind." Upon closer inspection, our actions were exposed to the eyes of the Immortal Dao. They will not say anything about it, and they will even find out my aunt's identity through the tracing of the corpse woman mentioned by my aunt, then she will be in danger. ”。

As soon as he said this, Mo Han secretly thought for a moment and then put away his confusion.

What Mu Qingming said was right, but he couldn't continue to put this drum here, Mo Han, who couldn't think of what to do for a while, raised his eyes and looked at her husband and asked, "What should I do then?" ”。

"There is a way, that is, to give it a tanuki in exchange for the prince." Mu Qingming, who had already thought of a countermeasure, said without hesitation.

Is Mu Qingming's method feasible? I want to know what happened next, and listen to the next breakdown.
