Fengdai Tower.
As the host of this banquet, Mu Huaxiao did not go out to meet the guests. At this time, standing in front of him was a Taoist priest wearing a navy blue bagua robe and a pure sun hat. Xu Pei, who had not been seen for a long time, was also standing next to him.
Mu Huaxiao asked, "Are you ready?"
The Taoist priest nodded and said, "Everything is ready."
"You take Jiaojiao away in advance. If she doesn't want to leave, just knock her out." This was said to Xu Pei.
"Yes, foster father."
"You should go out first. Daozhang Chen and I still have something to say."
After Xu Pei left, Mu Huaxiao also sat down with his support on the table. He looked a little strange. Daochang Chen saw it at a glance and knew it was 'that person' who caused it. He was about to speak but he noticed Subtle changes occurred in Mu Huaxiao.
"Master?" Daochang Chen shouted cautiously.
Mu Huaxiao hummed softly. His voice didn't change much but it felt very different. He asked in a casual tone: "What did you just say?"
"You said you still have something to tell me." Daochang Chen said.
"Oh, yes." Mu Huaxiao also pressed his temples, "Arrange for simultaneous activation in various places. Is your medicine man stable?"
Daochang Chen said: "You can give orders through smell. People who are contaminated with that smell are their targets and will not stop until they die. In addition, I have also developed another medicinal material, and the wearer will not become their target."
"Very good. I believe he can handle this little thing. Tell him not to affect our great cause." Mu Huaxiao smiled sarcastically, "Okay, I'll go back first. He has been waiting a lot for this day." Nian, let’s talk about it if you have anything else.”
"Yes, Master." Daochang Chen's attitude was very respectful, even more groveling than before.
After a moment, Mu Huaxiao groaned, and a trace of blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth.
"Master?!" Daochang Chen rushed over, poured two red pills from the porcelain bottle on the table and tried to stuff them into Mu Huaxiao's mouth, but Mu Huaxiao grabbed his hand, and Daochang Chen pressed his hand against hiss. His eyes were so frightened that he took two steps back and said, "Master, this is Qi Bu Qi Pill."
Mu Huaxiao's face looked much better after resting for a while. He looked at Daochang Chen, who also looked at him worriedly.
Mu Huaxiao's mood also stabilized, and he asked in a gentle tone: "Daozhang Chen, did he say anything to you?"
Daochang Chen said: "The master of the village told everyone to launch plans at the same time. He also asked about the medicine man. All these have been arranged. Please rest assured, master."
"Doesn't he have anything to say to me?"
"The owner of the villa said that you should act according to the plan and do not let your children's affairs affect the great cause."
Mu Huaxiao looked at him and smiled lightly and asked, "Do you have anything else to say to me?"
Daochang Chen lowered his head and said, "I don't have the owner anymore, I'm just a little worried about the owner's health."
Mu Huaxiao didn't say anything, and Daochang Chen said: "If the owner of the village is okay, I will leave first."
"Well." Mu Huaxiao looked at the bottles and jars on the table, but kept staring at the expression on Daochang Chen's face from the corner of his eye. When Daochang Chen was about to go out, he suddenly asked: "Is the medicine you prescribed for me the right medicine?" If I want to change the recipe, I always feel uncomfortable if there are any medicinal materials added to it."
Daochang Chen stopped and turned around, frowning and asked: "The prescription was prescribed by Dr. Huang when he came for a follow-up visit last month. He said that your old disease has relapsed and it is not suitable to use strong medicinal materials. The doctor is feeling unwell, so I sent someone to call." Dr. Huang will come and take a look immediately."
"Forget it, go down."
"yes."
As soon as Daochang Chen walked out of Fengdai Tower, his maid hurriedly chased him and called him back.
When Daochang Chen returned to the building with an uneasy heart, Mu Huaxiao looked at him with a complicated expression and spoke first.
That was the secret code between them.
However, Daochang Chen was still worried and said a few more specious words, which Mu Huaxiao met one by one.
Daochang Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he realized that his back had
Already soaked with sweat.
"The owner of the village."
"Tell it again."
Mu Huaxiao had not regained control of his body just now. On the contrary, the competition between him and him had become more and more intense during this period. The memories between the two personalities were not connected, and their acting styles were also very different.
He only felt that that person had a vague idea of replacing his body with his own.
For the servants, a pleasant-looking master is always better than a tyrannical master. No one wants to do a job where they may lose their head anytime and anywhere. In order to distinguish between them, Daochang Chen calls that master the master.
Every time I talk to the owner of the village, I always worry that my head will fall off in the next second.
"You mean he was testing you just now?" Mu Huaxiao looked at the porcelain bottle on the table, picked up another bottle, poured out two white pills and ate them. He shook the bottle and said, "He didn't want me to do it at all. It’s just that he knew how important these days were to me, and he was afraid that I would ruin the big thing he wanted to do at the critical moment, so he gave me the chance.”
After that incident more than ten years ago, maybe Mu Huaxiao himself couldn't accept it, so he derived another personality. However, he rarely appeared at first, and Mu Huaxiao didn't know it. He just started to find that he would be short-lived. Lose a memory and do something that you have no memory of.
Later, it was Daochang Chen who discovered this and told him that there seemed to be another him living in his body.
He gradually discovered that he would only take the opportunity to run out when his emotions fluctuated violently. He thought he was here to help him bear these sins, but this personality was more difficult to control than he imagined.
In recent years, Mu Huaxiao found that he was very worried after frequent personality exchanges. The time for the person to be out was getting longer and longer, so he rarely appeared in front of others for fear of being discovered at some point.
He began to ask Daozhang Chen if there was any way to suppress him or make him disappear. The man's behavior was too perverse and radical. As long as he showed up, more and more blood would be stained on his hands. As time went by, he felt that it was not appropriate.
But he is too keen. If he is not careful, he will easily discover what they are planning. During this time, Daoist Chen used the excuse that his old illness had relapsed to prescribe some soothing herbs for him to mix and take. The effect seemed to be good. good.
But that person seemed to have discovered what they were doing that was detrimental to him. Unexpectedly, this time he actually pretended to have changed his body to deceive Daoist Chen.
Fortunately, Daochang Chen and Mu Huaxiao had been prepared beforehand. They called Doctor Huang every time and borrowed Doctor Huang's hand to do this. The doctor had no idea that it was Daochang Chen who prescribed the medicine.
So although he had doubts, he had no proof that Daochang Chen had handled the situation properly, so he could only return the use of his body to Mu Huaxiao.
The two talked for a while, and Mu Huaxiao was obviously tired. He frequently snatched control of his body and the soothing medicine was a burden on his own body. Daochang Chen stopped talking, and the worry in his eyes became more obvious.
"I can still hold on." Mu Huaxiao said. He knew what Daochang Chen was worried about. He knew that he was not a good person, but that person made him look like a good person compared to him.
In Ruan Xianbei's words, that pure evil person is an anti-social personality who is so dark that he kills indiscriminately. If Mu Huaxiao is replaced by him, he will definitely go on a killing spree happily, and who knows who the next victim will be. Who could it be? He didn't even have the slightest affection for Mu Ruojiao.
Only blood makes him crazy, only killing makes him happy.
...
Xu Pei rarely returned to the yard while it was still daylight. He went to Mu Ruojiao first and said that the owner of the village wanted her to go outside with him to pick up something.
"Daddy's birthday party is in two days. Can you make it back in time?" Mu Ruojiao asked a little unhappy, "Why does dad have to go at this time?"
"The owner of the village said it was left by an old friend, but that old friend couldn't come, so he finally sent someone to deliver it, so it's safer for the eldest lady and I to pick it up in person."
"Okay, when will we leave?" Mu Ruojiao agreed although she had doubts.
"I'll pick up the eldest lady early tomorrow morning."
Mu Ruojiao then thought about being able to go out alone with Xu Pei and started laughing again. She didn't know what important thing it was.
Ruan Xianbei was not surprised to see Xu Pei. Wei Ke said a quarter of an hour ago that he was coming back, but he went to find Mu Ruojiao and was delayed until now.
She had been waiting for him in the yard for a long time.
"Mr. Xu, I seem a lot haggard after not seeing you for a few days." Ruan Xianbei poured the tea and pushed it in front of Xu Pei. He took a sip from the cup first to show that it was not poisonous.
"Tomorrow you will be taken to the Siji Hall. Taoist Master Chen will activate the formation at noon the day after tomorrow. The formation will be activated as soon as a stick of incense is burned. By then, the foster father and the others will be in the front yard, and the Siji Hall will only be partially occupied. Guard, if you want to take Mrs. Ruan away, you will only have a chance after the formation is activated. Daoist Chen cannot stop the formation in the middle and cannot be distracted to stop you, but the premise is that you can stay awake."
"The guards guarding here are basically on the first level of Tianxuan Realm, and those on the third level of Tianxuan Realm are all staying with my adoptive father. It should be easy to escape from them with your skills."
Xu Pei threw out two sachets and continued: "Daozhang Chen told me that the medicine man will be activated for defense. Everyone who comes here will light a kind of incense in the room. A medicinal material is added to the incense. The medicine man will follow the instructions. If you attack those people with this smell, wearing this sachet can avoid their attacks.
"I don't know what other plans my foster father has. He asked me to take the eldest lady away tomorrow. I guess nothing good will happen here."
"Even you don't know?" Ruan Xianbei and Wei Ke looked at each other. Even Mu Ruojiao was going to be sent away. What good could come from this?
"My foster father doesn't always tell me everything." Xu Pei said calmly.
Ruan Xianbei asked: "Those medicine people can attack people based on incense? What if the incense doesn't work?"
Xu Pei ordered the teacup: "That medicinal material was also added to the tea. It is colorless, odorless and harmless. It is just used as a guide for the medicine man."
