After an hour of practice, Mu Xingqiu did not retire silently as usual, but chose to stay, expressing the doubts in his heart, "For more than half a month, I have been practicing, but I have not made the slightest progress, or can I only stabilize in the fifth layer of the illusion realm, what is the meaning of doing this?"

Zuo Liuying waited for a while before raising his gaze, as if he had been in a daze before, "What is the meaning?

Mu Xingqiu was stunned for a moment, "Because...... We are friends, we need to meet to enhance our relationship and help each other, and all we remember when we meet is our appearance, everyone is changing......" he looked at Shouza, which has not changed for hundreds of years, "Most people are changing, and sometimes we need to get to know each other again, such as Daliang, if I want to accept the change of his wife and children, and become a fat man, I have to visit him often." ”

Zuo Liuying let out a long hum, as if he had realized, "You have a bit of a point, and there are also changes in the Mind Illusion Technique, so you have to practice every day." ”

"But what I want to say is that I can't feel the change in it, I practice for an hour every day, and I'm still the same as the first day, I can't stay on the sixth and seventh floors for a long time, neither longer nor shortened, and I'm still exhausted after that. ”

Zuo Liuying was silent for a moment, as if she was considering the words, but she still didn't hide it when she spoke, "I'm not talking about you, it's me, I can see a little new change in the telepathic illusion every day, I think it's very useful." ”

Since Mu Xingqiu came back from Ranjing Mountain, his impression of Zuo Liuying was much better than before, but now looking at the handsome appearance of eighteen or nineteen years old, he couldn't help but think, I don't know if I can fight with all my strength, can I beat the first seat of the forbidden secret department that has not healed from his injury?

"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 it for more than half a month. But no attempt has been made.

"Not yet, your potential is rather shy, and I haven't seen them show up so far. Zuo Liuying's clear eyes revealed a hint of reproach, "You have to work hard, you have the strength but you can't exert it, it's better not to have it." ”

"Well, I'll try. Mu Xingqiu wanted to ask how hard he should work, that is, to repeat the practice every day, but he immediately gave up, not wanting to get another plausible answer.

Mu Xingqiu had already walked to the staircase, and Zuo Liuying suddenly said: "There is a copy of "Qiankun Ding" in the third layer of the tower. You should take a look. ”

"Thank you. Mu Xingqiu was a little surprised, Zuo Liuying actually took the initiative to help, which is an extremely rare thing.

Most of the books in Pangshan have been destroyed, and after the establishment of the temporary Taiwan Academy, the senior Taoist priests restored part of the collection with their outstanding memory, and also asked for some manuscripts from other Taoist systems, which can be regarded as rebuilding the blessed land of Langhuan, but the scale is not as good as before.

The layout of the third-layer tower was almost exactly the same as the seventh-floor of the old forbidden secret tower, and Mu Xingqiu's heart couldn't help but feel hot after he walked in. Back then, he and Fangfang spent many days and nights together in the blessed land of Langhuan, looking for books together, reading separately, and occasionally raising their heads at the same time and smiling......

He didn't dare to think about it anymore. The love catastrophe has not been overcome, and it is dangerous for him to recall the past.

Mu Xingqiu silently thought about the title of "Qiankun Ding", and not long after, the book he wanted appeared on the desk on the far right. Not one, but a set of dozens of volumes, stacked together seven or eight feet high.

Mu Xingqiu had never seen such a thick exercise. I was shocked in my heart, and I walked over and opened it only to find that I was mistaken, what Zuo Liuying asked him to see was not a practice at all, but various agreements and rules established by the Dao system for hundreds of thousands of years, and this was only a part, and there were still a large number of supplementary agreements that were not included.

Mu Xingqiu was inexplicable, looked at it for a while and suddenly understood that Zuo Liuying was letting him understand the boundaries of Taoist priesthood.

The head of the Forbidden Secret Section apparently sensed that his connection to the outside of the Dao system was too close.

Mu Xingqiu went to Broken Flow City for a banquet a few days ago, he had a secret fight with the Great Fu Master Liang Shiji for a round, and he never mentioned it to anyone.

He decided to read the boring articles honestly, and if he wanted to get justice from the Longbin Society, he had to ensure his own safety first.

But this book was too boring, Mu Xingqiu simply skipped the agreement between the Nine Great Dao Commanders, quickly flipped through it, and only found the provisions related to the Longbin Society, even then he couldn't finish it in a short time, so he had to decide to take time out to read it every day in the future, and strive to read it roughly before going to the imperial capital at the end of the month.

When he returned to his residence, it was already early afternoon, and he was surprised to see that Xiao Hao was consciously practicing boxing.

"Fellow seekers, how long do I have to practice before I can learn new exercises? There is no so-called master-apprentice relationship in Taoism, so Xiao Wei calls him "catechumen" like others.

"Half a year later. Based on his own experience, Mu Xingqiu felt that only after the foundation of boxing was particularly solid could he learn to lead the nine changes of the beast.

"Oh. Xiao Hao didn't get entangled and continued to practice boxing.

Mu Xingqiu watched from the side, thinking to himself why did the young demon who had escaped choose such a disciple for Nian Xinke, was she simply repaying her kindness, or did she have other plans?

The bald man flew over listlessly, he was very unhappy that he didn't take him to the banquet last time, "Someone invited you to dinner again." ”

"Who?"

"How do I know?"

"If it's someone who knows you, maybe I can take you along. ”

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

"Huang Zhao?" Mu Xingqiu didn't have this name in his memory, as a Taoist priest, he was very sure of it.

"The omen of the omen, that is...... Oops, the petty official of Broken Stream City, the one who is scared every time he fights. ”

"Captain Huang?" Mu Xingqiu finally remembered, it was a tall and slightly fat officer, who was originally the leader of the Xuanfu Army in Broken Flow City, and he had personally tortured the city guard Chen Zhiwei and forced him to ask for a lot of good things.

Huang Zhao is now a petty official in the princess's mansion, far away from officialdom to avoid Chen Zhiwei's revenge, and he invited Mu Xingqiu this time, representing not only himself, but also the princess.

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

The bald man must follow him into the city, agree to be packed in a package, and leave a hole for him to peek out, as for Xiao Hao, she has never asked Mu Xingqiu's opinion, and when the time comes, she stretches out her arm very calmly, "Let's go, don't fly too fast, I'm dizzy." ”

Huang Zhao had already prepared a banquet at home, and instructed his family not to let anyone in, so as not to be frightened by the bald man, in addition to himself, there was also a person to accompany him, Pan Sanye, the veteran who was most trusted by the princess.

The Taoist priest doesn't drink alcohol, and he eats less, only the bald man sniffs the dish and doesn't touch a mouthful, so Huang Zhao avoids a lot of politeness, and after greeting the bald man and Xiao Artemisia, he has nothing to say, leaving Pan Sanye to talk to General Mu.

Pan Sanye was much older and emaciated, and the damage caused to him by the Battle of Broken Flow City would never be healed, and he said: "Her Royal Highness the princess is inconvenient to meet guests, so he has entrusted me to convey a few words to the catechumen. ”

"I'm also asking the princess for help. "Mu Xingqiu wants to take Liu Ding and the other three to the imperial capital, and he has to rely on the cover of the princess.

"No problem, I can promise it for Her Royal Highness. Pan Sanye lowered his voice, "The seeker fought with the Fu Master surnamed Liang?"

"Hmm. ”

"Hehe, you have embarrassed him, there are always people inside and outside the city singing "General Xing" these days, and Huang Fujun can't hold it down at all. ”

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

Liang Shiji is a confidant of Qu Zungui, but he has other motives to provoke the seekers. Pan Sanye paused for a while, "The Huangjing Longbin will tamper with the battle situation and risk the army's military exploits, and the above can't hide it from the bottom, but no matter how angry the people below are, they can't reach the heavens, but the catechumens are an exception, you are the hero of the war back then, or the Pangshan Taoist, and you are qualified to meet the emperor and the chief master of the Longbin Society, this is the thing that Qu Xungui is most afraid of, so as soon as I heard that you are also going to the imperial capital, immediately send Liang Shiji to test your attitude." ”

"Then he won't be satisfied. ”

"Does the catechumen really want to expose the truth in the imperial capital?"

Mu Xingqiu didn't answer this question, "The princess also personally participated in the battle of Broken Flow City, and she is going to marry the emperor's grandson, and she is more qualified to meet the emperor than me, isn't Qu Xungui worried about her?"

Pan Sanye smiled, "The princess had already gained the trust of Qu Shun 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 by no means a helpless move as Daliang imagined, but the result of the princess's operation, "That's right, I want the world to see the truth, not only for me, but also for those wronged cultivators, but also for Pang Shan." The recovery of the Xijie Kingdom and the Pangshan Ancestral Land required the support of the Holy Fu Dynasty, but the obedience to the rules had become an obstacle. ”

This is the conclusion that Mu Xingqiu drew from "Qiankun Ding": if he only cleared his name for loose cultivation, he would not only not get the support of the Daoists, but also might be blamed and even punished, and he must link the entire plan with Pang Shan's interests.

Pan Sanye laughed twice, attracting the attention of the bald man and Xiao Artemisia, and he seemed very happy, "Her Royal Highness the princess really did not misunderstand the seeker, she said that Xijie Country is the place of choice for Pang Shan, so the interests of Xi Jie Country are completely consistent with Pang Shan." This visit to the imperial capital will be related to the life and death of Xijieguo, she hopes to join forces with the seeker again, in her original words, "You and I still have the value of using each other, in a few years, I am afraid that Xijieguo will not be able to climb the seeker." ’”

Pan Sanye was reluctant to convey this overly straightforward sentence, but Mu Xingqiu understood the meaning of this sentence, "use each other" was what the princess said when the two met for the first time, he smiled, "Then let's join forces to fight again." ”

Pan Sanye's expression suddenly became stern, "The catechumen's request to Her Royal Highness the princess will be fully fulfilled, she has only one condition, she hopes that the catechuler can save the life of His Royal Highness the prince, now that he is in danger in the imperial capital, it is no longer enough to ensure his safety with the strength of Xijieguo." ”

"Xin Youtao?" Mu Xingqiu was really taken aback.
