Hua Zilan looked at the food on the table and felt really hungry. After hesitating for a while, she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
After the meal, Hua Zilan said with bright eyes, "What kind of magic did you use to control me?"
Mu Sheng did not answer but asked, "Do you hate me?"
Hua Zilan struggled with her expression and said, "Hate, I wish I could kill you right now."
Mu Sheng said, "Very good, this is what I want. In fact, I can let you go, but your promise will rot in my stomach about the matter between us, especially the incident in Xiangjun, which involves the prince, so tell it out." It’s not good for you or me.”
Hua Zilan looked hesitant and said, "Can you really let me go?"
Mu Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Yes, until your hatred for me is completely eliminated in your heart and I have no worries, you can leave."
Hua Zilan was immediately furious and said fiercely, "You beast, court eagle dog, you have no intention of letting me go?"
Seeing that Mu Sheng was noncommittal and had an indifferent look on his face, Hua Zilan's mood returned to calmness and she said slowly, "Sir, there is no deep hatred between you and me. We are just each his own master. Why bother?" So? If you hadn't protected Xiang County back then, I would have been dead long ago. In order to repay you for surviving, I, Hua Zilan, swear to God that I can do something for you. As long as I can do it, I can forget about the fact that you used magic to control me, and let this be a clean slate between us. This can be considered a transaction, what do you think?"
Mu Sheng looked at her deeply, and her eyes did not dodge. He thought for a moment and said, "Fellow Taoist, you are quite sincere. After getting along with each other these days, I believe that you do what you say, but I am a human being." Although you are easy to talk to, you are not particularly easy to trust others. You know too many things around me, and as of now, I can’t let you go.”
Hua Zilan's mood became much more stable at this time and she said, "Then when will you let me go?"
Mu Sheng said, "At least we have to wait until the day when the Crown Prince officially ascends the throne. You still have to do things for me, and I promise not to treat you badly. How about that?"
Hua Zilan nodded and said, "Okay! But I have a condition."
Mu Sheng stretched out his hand and said, "Please tell me."
"You know that I am a member of the Renaissance Society, and I am also a traitor in the eyes of you imperial hawks. I must eliminate them quickly. My condition is that I cannot take action except for people from the Renaissance Society. I am bound to other opponents."
Mu Sheng looked at her with a smile and said, "Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms with me now?"
Hua Zilan suddenly became angry, and she was shaking with anger and said, "You..."
Mu Sheng stepped forward with a smile, took her hand and said, "I just like to see you angry."
Hua Zilan withdrew her hand like an electric shock and looked at him hatefully, wishing to cut the man in front of her into pieces with a thousand knives.
Mu Sheng looked at her expression and said with half a smile, "It seems that you hate me very much? I agree with your proposal. As for when to let you go, it depends on my mood. Of course, good service is a plus." Xiang, if I don't serve you well, you will never leave me..."
Seeing that Mu Sheng was about to leave, Hua Zilan called out, "Sir, you haven't answered my question yet, why can't I control my body?"
Mu Sheng was silent for a long time. In fact, it was not that he didn't answer, but that he didn't want to say it. Now that Tianque Ancient Treasure had become his biggest trump card and support, how could he tell her so easily? What's more, she accidentally recovered her memory, so it would be even more impossible for her to tell this traitor.
Mu Sheng paced on the spot and muttered for a long time, making up nonsense, "Do you still remember that after you recognized the magic weapon as its owner, the magic weapon suddenly backfired on you, and you were seriously injured and fell into a coma?"
Hua Zilan frowned as if recalling the situation at that time, and said hesitantly, "I remember that it was as if my consciousness was sucked into the magic weapon. I only remember that there was a sea of red everywhere, and then I completely lost consciousness and never returned. I don’t know what happened…”
Mu Sheng's heart moved when he heard this, and then he said: "Oh! That makes sense! I only discovered this problem later when I checked the magic weapon. The former owner of the magic weapon set up an extremely destructive formation. When you recognize the master of the magic weapon, the trap left by it will be automatically triggered, and the person who recognizes the master will be sealed into the formation, which should be the situation you mentioned."
Mu Sheng had a look of pity on his face and said with a sad expression, "I saw you were unconscious at that time. In order to save you, I gave you a precious elixir called amoxicillin. This is an alchemist I specially brought from the Far West." I came here with a lot of money to buy bones and living dead. Your soul was severely damaged at that time. Although it is a pity, but who made you the one I tried to save in the first place? I can only use it for you. After all, human life is at stake. .”
Hua Zilan, who had obviously recovered her memory, didn't believe he would be so kind.
Mu Sheng continued, "If you feel it now, do you feel that your body is much stronger?"
Hua Zilan nodded when she heard this, and seemed to believe it a little, but she said doubtfully, "I don't believe you would use such a precious elixir for me."
Mu Sheng snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I want to waste this precious elixir on you? It's not for the sake of seeing you serve me that I reluctantly parted ways with you. Hey! I didn't expect you to recover your memory. It's long ago I know I might as well kill you, this scourge, because after all, I and the prince were the ones who saved you in the first place. We promised that we would make you one of our own, so we spared your life."
Hearing this, Hua Zilan felt that it made sense and nodded involuntarily. Indeed, ever since she regained consciousness, she felt that her whole body was full of strength. Although she was still an entry-level Celestial Master monk, her physical strength was already very close to that of a Celestial Master monk. I couldn't help but believe it in my heart.
Mu Sheng looked at her expression of doubt and chuckled inwardly. In fact, this was the result of the transformation of Tianque Ancient Sword Slave. Her current comprehensive strength was almost that of an average monk in the Heavenly Master Realm.
Hua Zilan said with firm eyes, "Sir, Zilan thanks you for saving my life. Zilan has nothing to repay. I can only serve you in front of you to repay your kindness. I, Zilan, have a saying, hatred is hatred, kindness is kindness." Yes, but can you release the control on my body? I, Zi Lan, swear to God that from now on, as long as the master does not force me to deal with the Fuxing Society, Zi Lan will never back down according to the master's orders."
Mu Sheng saw that she was almost paralyzed by the deception, so he said, "Okay, in that case, I promise to help you release the control."
He took out an elixir from his arms and handed it to her and said, "I once accidentally obtained a volume of ancient secrets and transformed your body. I was afraid that one day you would suddenly regain your memory and kill me. This elixir is The antidote can only temporarily restore your ability to move for a month. From now on, just collect it from me every month. You can rest assured that as long as you are unreservedly loyal to me and repay the life debt you owe me, you will get Free, I swear to God, I will do what I say.”
Mu Sheng was about to leave when he remembered something and turned around and said, "Oh! By the way, I have sealed that magic weapon. I will find an expert to decipher this weird formation in the future. It is really harmful. Green Snake Sect I am also very sorry for this, saying it is a major mistake by their treasure appraiser, don't worry! As long as there are suitable magic weapons in the future, I will spend a lot of money to buy them, and all I want is your temporary loyalty. This is not difficult for you. arrive."
After saying that, Mu Sheng turned around and left. At this time, Hua Zilan stared at his back with a complicated expression...
Back at the house, Mu Sheng looked at a strange pattern on his chest, like a tattoo.
Yes, this was the Tianque Ancient Treasure. After refining, it was completely integrated into his body. At this time, Mu Sheng felt that his whole body was slightly hot, and the sea of qi was constantly churning.
Mu Sheng closed his eyes and meditated for a while. He felt that his cultivation speed was several times faster than before. He said in his heart, "Awesome, so awesome." Mu Sheng waved his hand, and the tattoo on his chest heated up slightly, and a sword-shaped sword appeared in his hand. magic weapon.
The function of the Tianque Sword is that it can change and switch forms at will, and can be used by monks of all attributes. However, it is not clear why the Green Snake Sect identified Tianque as a fire attribute magic weapon in the first place?
Mu Sheng couldn't help but secretly gasped. This was a bit perverted. Tianque also had the function of conjuring a set of inner armor that covered the whole body like scales. However, the remnant soul of the monster was just a remnant soul. In addition to his low cultivation level, he could not use it. There are still many wonderful functions in the inner armor that cannot be used and can only be stared at and drooled. Unless Mu Sheng can repair the residual soul of the monster, now he can only use the 1.0 castrated version of Tianque. Even so, Mu Sheng is very satisfied. .
It was only at this moment that Mu Sheng felt that the money was really well spent. This ancient treasure was simply a combination of offense and defense, plus the function of recruiting a younger brother to transform into a sword slave.
Legend has it that one who reaches the level of Qingluan Emperor can transform many sword slaves. However, there is a cooling time for Tianque's transformation into a sword slave. It can only be transformed once a year. It consumes the energy of ancient treasures, but it is just one more battle puppet that is completely obedient to one's orders. It also flies extremely well.
Thinking of this, Mu Sheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was just cheating. He had picked up a big leak when searching for gold. However, thinking about the adventures in the world of ancient treasures, it was actually extremely dangerous. If he didn't pay attention, let alone pick up, he would be in trouble. He was almost killed. If it weren't for the remnant soul of the monster, he would never have been able to survive. However, everything has passed. It can be said that surviving a catastrophe will be a blessing.
At this time, Mu Sheng had a strong illusion that he was possessed by the aura of the super protagonist...
Mu Sheng came alone to the yard of the inn and stared at a tree in the yard. He thought about it, but as expected, there was no reaction. His gifted magical power, Tiantian Xin Lei, could no longer be used. Just when he used the soul-splitting technique to separate the remaining souls of the monsters. It would definitely be like this at the moment of separation, and Mu Sheng just came to the yard to verify it.
Mu Sheng shook his head and muttered to himself, "You can't have your cake and eat it too. Want everything? It's too much to think about, but if you can get the Tianque Ancient Treasure, it's all worth it."
At this time, a person came outside the post house. Mu Sheng happened to be in the courtyard. The guard said that the person claimed to be Niu Sanpi. He thought, what is this person doing here?
Mu Sheng waved his hand and told the guards to let the man in. He guessed that the information he had inquired about before would be revealed.
When the visitor entered the courtyard, he saw Niu Sanpi disguised himself. Seeing this, he was a little surprised why Niu Sanpi was so secretive.
