Chapter 23 Breaking the Formation(1/3)
It seems that the elder with the foreign surname has a very high status, otherwise he would not have the confidence to treat the second young master like this. This is not just a factional dispute.
Li Muchan suddenly started to look forward to it. He wondered if he could become an elder with a foreign surname, a master, and obtain the Star Controlling Sutra. Then he shook his head. This was impossible. The time was too short to achieve it overnight.
Soon they arrived at a small town and saw three more people. Feng Zhaobu and Feng Zhaobu were all masters in their fifties, all elders with a foreign surname.[]
Li Muchan looked at Mr. Meng and Mr. Mo. They must have hope in the future.
Song Jing was also very ardent to them, even a bit flattering. Li Muchan shook his head and asked Song Shuhua secretly.
Song Shuhua secretly sneered: "Humph, the elders have the power to depose and establish the head of the family. They are so high up that the second brother will naturally want to please them!"
Li Muchan was surprised: "Elder with a different surname?"
Song Shuhua said: "The elders with foreign surnames have the same power as the elders with the pole elders. The family is in charge of the disciples of the family, and the elders are in charge of the head of the family."
Li Muchan was even more surprised. He didn't expect the elders with the foreign surname to have such great power. He thought to himself: "Aren't you afraid that the elders with the foreign surname will not lose their tails?"
"In my Song family, those who are capable are superior and those who are incompetent are subordinate, no matter what their surname is." Song Shuhua said proudly.
The two of them were trusting the horse and looked relaxed. Li Muchan nodded slowly and sighed. With such a system, why should the Song family be unhappy?!
From the outside, it seemed that the two of them were just walking in silence, and it was impossible to tell that the two of them were talking. This feeling fascinated Song Shuhua and found it interesting.
Just at this moment, Song Jing's laughter came from behind: "There are a few elders here, what are those clowns doing?"
I wish they would come and die!"
Song Jing's voice is hearty and bold, and he is really easy to like.
Song Shuhua curled her delicate lips and snorted, her face full of disapproval.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Second Young Master is very capable!"
Song Shuhua sneered: "Kouheng, it's rare to see five elders with foreign surnames, so he won't miss the opportunity!"
Li Muchan nodded: "Sister Xiaonuo, don't you want to get close to them?"
"No need." Song Shuhua shook her head and said calmly: "For mother's sake, they will take good care of me, so there is no need for such nonsense."
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows
He cast a questioning look over him.
Song Shuhua said: "Mother is no longer here."
Li Muchan sighed and expressed comfort, and Song Shuhua hummed: "I can live such a prosperous life only because of the care of these elders. Otherwise, I would have been married long ago!"
Li Muchan nodded slowly. The Song family had an open family tradition, but as the direct descendant of the head of the family, his privileges were suppressed. Some people benefited and others were harmed. It was difficult to have the best of both worlds.
Li Muchan pondered for a moment and said, "I have a worry."
"Tell me about it," Song Shuhua said.
Li Muchan said: "They won't be practicing formations, right?"
Song Shuhua's face changed slightly and she turned to look over.
Li Muchan touched his chin and shook his head: "I'm afraid they will also use a formation."
Song Shuhua said solemnly: "That makes sense!...
I’m going to find Uncle Wu!”
If this is the case, it will be useless no matter how many masters there are. Once caught in the formation, the masters will be trapped and unable to do anything.
Song Shuhua turned the horse's head and ran towards the back, and Li Muchan followed him. In a blink of an eye, he reached the end of the team and came to Master Song Wu.
Master Song Wu was sitting on the horse with his eyes squinted, as if he was dozing off. When he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats, he opened his eyes: "Girl, what's wrong?"
Song Shuhua said directly: "Uncle Wu, if they have a formation,
Is there any way to break it?"
Master Song Wu's face turned solemn, he frowned, thought for a moment, and hummed: "There are ways to form formations, but they are not that easy to do!"
"Fifth Uncle, don't be so secretive!" Song Shuhua said.
Master Song Wu looked at Li Muchan: "Boy, I don't have this ability, it all depends on you!"
Li Muchan was surprised, Song Wuye said: "There is a formation-breaking talisman, it is extremely complicated
I'm not good enough to draw, so you can give it a try."
Li Muchan smiled bitterly and said: "Fifth Master, you can't do it, let alone me."
Song Wuye said: "Your boy is the only genius I have ever seen in painting talismans. Give it a try, maybe you can do it."
Song Shuhua hurriedly said: "Li Wuji won't succeed, there's no harm in giving it a try!"
She has great confidence in Li Muchan
I always felt that he was very capable and could do anything with ease, as if nothing in the world could trouble him.
Li Muchan sighed helplessly: "In that case, I'll give it a try."
Master Song Wu took out the thin booklet from his arms, flipped through a few pages, stopped, and brought it to Li Muchan. He pointed to the characters on the page and said, "This is it!"
Li Muchan frowned: "Five formation talismans... need to be painted in one go?"
"That's right." Mr. Song Wu nodded and sighed: "The so-called method of breaking the formation is not to break the formation, but to build another formation on the body to protect yourself. This is the Five Elements Free Formation. After it is formed, it can not be affected by the surrounding formations.
, just like Gang Qi.”
Li Muchan took a few glances at the five characters on this page. They were extremely complicated, just like Chinese characters. For the same character, some only had one or two strokes, three or four strokes, and some had more than twenty strokes. They were completely different.
The characters he painted before were not difficult and could be easily faced, but they were more expensive. Now, each character is worth ten, and he has to finish all five characters in one go.
………………………………
Li Muchan glanced at Mr. Song Wu, no wonder he couldn't explain it, because it was extremely difficult to remember these five characters. He was afraid that Mr. Song would not be able to remember them all, let alone draw all five characters in one go.
He estimated that this was definitely not something that ordinary people could accomplish. It was too difficult, more than ten times more difficult than before. If he could complete it, wouldn't it be too showy and go against his own principle of being low-key?
He raised his head and smiled bitterly: "Master Wu, it's too difficult, I'm afraid I won't make it."
"Boy, how do you know if you haven't tried it yet? Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!" Mr. Song Wu widened his eyes angrily.
Li Muchan sighed: "It's really difficult!"
"It's not difficult, I'll ask you to try it!" Song Wuye stared at him and hummed unkindly: "Girl
Speak quickly!"
Song Shuhua said: "Fifth uncle, let's forget it."
Master Song Wu sneered: "Girl, you guess it's the An family's fault, right?"
"Yes." Song Shuhua nodded and said, "They always like to use these dirty tricks. Besides, I don't have any enemies with anyone. The only one who wants me dead is An Jia!"
The An family and the Song family are feuding, and there is no sense at all. They will destroy each other at every opportunity, and it would be great if they could kill Song Shuhua.
Li Muchan said: "Is there someone else who doesn't want the Song family to form an alliance with the He family?"
"
Not sure." Song Shuhua pondered and slowly shook her head.
Master Song Wu chuckled and said: "The big tree attracts the wind. There are many people who want us dead, but we are not ordinary people who dare to do such a cruel thing!"
There is no airtight wall in the world, and there is no perfect plan. If the Song family discovers it, they will face a violent attack. Unless there is a life-and-death feud, there is no need to use such extreme measures.
Song Wuye waved his hand and interrupted Li Muchan: "Okay, let's talk about the An family. Girl, you also know that the An family has a formation master!"
Song Shuhua nodded slowly.
Li Muchan frowned, sighed helplessly, and looked at the Fifth Master Song who was looking at him proudly: "Okay, I can only try my best, but the Fifth Master must promise to keep it secret!"
"Haha, you're still hiding your clumsiness!" Mr. Song Wu has lived a long life and has seen many things. He can see through Li Muchan's thoughts at a glance and nodded: "Okay, if you really do it, just say it was me!"
Song Shuhua glanced at Master Song Wu and then at Li Muchan.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "That couldn't be better!"
Master Song Wu shook his head and hummed: "You brat, you seem to be able to do it. Let's give it a try first!"
Li Muchan smiled: "That's fine."
"Hurry up, then try it quickly!" Mr. Song Wu was in high spirits and his eyes were bright. As he spoke, he took out the small box hidden in the saddle.
Li Muchan looked up first and saw that everyone had turned a corner and could not see this way. They were located next to a forest and it was quite quiet. No one was coming or going on the road now.
He then took the wooden box and led the horse towards the woods. After walking about ten feet, he stopped. Song Shuhua and Song Wuye followed him in.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened the wooden box, took out the silver-purple talisman pen, looked at it carefully, then slowly laid out the gold silk, smiled at Song Shuhua, slowly closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing.
…………………………………………
Li Muchan simulated and described these five characters in his mind, one by one. He simulated the first one nearly a hundred times. When he was familiar with it, he started the second one and then the third one. After he was familiar with the previous one, he started on the next one.
It took a while.
He closed his eyes and remained motionless. Song Shuhua and Song Wuye waited calmly without urging them. They guessed that what Li Muchan was doing was brewing.
After a long time, about a quarter of an hour, Li Muchan moved his right hand. The tip of the pen touched the thumb of his left hand. His thumb suddenly opened a gash and blood gushed out. The tip of the pen touched the snow and swam directly on the golden silk with a wave.
Just.
Then the pen tip left the gold silk and he clicked his left index finger. The index finger bled and dyed the pen tip red. The pen tip landed on the gold silk and wandered around.
