Chapter 37 The Strategy for Stability

 Li Mu flew across a distance of more than ten feet in the blink of an eye.

He fell into the house in front, put away his bow and arrows, two steel maces appeared in his hands, and rushed forward like a strong wind.

This is a back garden.

The garden has lush trees, a small pond, an octagonal pavilion beside the pond, rockeries and flowers next to it.

A white-haired old man was lying on the edge of the pond, spitting out blood. The blood rippled from the water, forming circles of ripples.

When Li Mu landed in the pavilion, the old man raised his head and said with a sad smile: "I didn't expect that in this small Qinghe County, I met the legendary Great Sun Pure Yang Body!"

He managed to get up from the ground and lay down on the bluestone beside the pond, his chest rising and falling: "Fellow Taoist, I..."

Poof!

Li Mu shot out an arrow, which passed through his left shoulder and pinned him to the ground.

The white-haired old man let out a scream and his body trembled violently: "You..."

Poof!

Li Mu fired another arrow, and the arrow passed through his right arm.

Then a series of arrows were shot out, piercing through all his limbs and abdomen, nailing him in place, crippled his limbs, and shattered his Dantian Qihai.

I saw that the old man's face was gray and sallow, his skin was visibly decaying, wrinkles were increasing on his face, and he had aged for decades in an instant.

At this time, Li Mu just stepped forward and came to the old man: "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"

The old man made a sound in his mouth, and his eyes widened: "I... I am a disciple of the Puppet Sect, fellow Taoist. I was greedy for a moment and did such a wrong thing. For the sake of my master, please forgive me.

This time I..."

"Poof!"

Li Mu smashed the old man's brain with the steel mace in his hand, and settled the matter immediately.

After beating the old man to death, Li Mu searched him all over with gloves on, and got a bracelet, a ring, and a storage bag filled with various paper-cut figures and birds.

It's the paper puppet that just dealt with Li Mu.

"This guy is still a person with heritage!"

Li Mu looked through his storage bag and found that there were not only paper figures and birds, but also several magic weapons. Among them was a black seal, which exuded a strange aura. It was the one that blocked his arrow just now.

The big seal.

In addition to this seal, there is also a blue jade slip in the brocade bag. There are runes on the jade slip and it emits a faint green light under the bright moon.

Li Mu held the jade slip in front of his eyes and looked at it. He didn't know what it was. He suddenly thought of some online cultivation novels he had read on weekdays and thought to himself: "Could this be the legendary jade slip of inheritance?"<

/p>

His heart moved, he focused his eyes, and a ray of spirit followed his gaze straight into the jade slip.

Boom!

The jade slip suddenly shone brightly, and the runes on it flowed, forming a pure Taoist rhyme, which was injected into Li Mu's soul following his gaze.

"Little puppetry?"

This wisp of Taoist rhyme contains a practice inheritance called Little Puppet Technique.

You can refine paper puppets. After being refined, you can use them to kill enemies and protect yourself. You can also do other things, such as sneaking around, scaring children...

"Since this technique is called the Small Puppet Technique? It seems that there should be a Big Puppet Technique too? It's interesting!"

Inheriting ideas and imbuing the heart with the heart, as long as the recipient's spirit can withstand it, he can instantly learn the knowledge of the inherited Taoist rhyme.

A small bronze bell opened up a huge space in the depths of Li Mu's mind. The mere inheritance of Taoist rhyme did not cause the slightest disturbance in his spirit. In just an instant, he completely learned this little puppet technique.

But how to do it, you still have to practice it yourself.

"I seem to have heard Anyangzi talk about this Puppet Gate. He originally said that he would sell the corpse demon's painting to a sect for trade. It seems that he was talking about the Puppet Gate."

Li Mu collected the jade slips, looked at the old man's body on the ground, and with thoughts in his mind, he took out a paper bird from the old man's bag, and blew out a breath at the paper bird: "Change!"

The paper bird changed in the air in the wind, and suddenly turned into a red firebird, two feet tall, with a crested turtle back, wings spread three feet in diameter, and fire patterns all over its body.

At this time, the firebird looked up at the sky, with fire patterns lighting up on its head, took a deep breath into the void, and then exhaled at the corpse of the old man underground.

Phew!

A stream of flames spurted out from the firebird's long beak, burning the old man's body instantly. Then the firebird's beak also caught fire and burned, instantly contaminating the whole body. The entire firebird was on fire.

Later, it turned into a pile of ashes and was blown away by the wind.

"The puppet made by this old man is not good. It can't withstand even a little bit of pure Yang power. It's really a waste!"

Li Mu followed the little puppet technique he had just learned and prepared to try the paper puppet made by the old man. However, he did not expect that his technique was correct. The force of the void pulled by the puppet rune was too strong. The puppet itself could not withstand it and burned itself.

.

Originally practiced according to the puppet technique, the greater the pulling force of the puppet, the stronger the puppet will be. With the blessing of void power, the puppet will become more and more powerful.

But the paper puppet made by this man couldn't even withstand the pure Yang Qi spewed out by Li Mu. It just drew out a mouthful of Nanming Fire Qi, and then burned and disappeared.

"We don't even have a wooden puppet, we just use paper as the material. How dare you do something to me even though you are so poor."

At this time, there was a noise outside the garden, and the owner of the house began to order his servants to light lanterns and torches to investigate the situation.

Li Mu tapped his toes and rose into the air. He left the garden in an instant and came to the street.

At this time, in the backyard of Li Ji Jewelry Shop on Qian Street, Sun Honglie and several servants had finished dressing up, holding swords and waiting for orders.

Li Mu came to the courtyard and said to everyone: "I have already killed the enemy, so you leave two of them to take turns keeping watch. Don't be careless!"

Sun Honglie and others responded in unison.

After Li Mu left, Sun Honglie sat in the living room with a long sword in his hand, dazed.

A servant said: "Boss Sun, what are you doing?"

Sun Honglie came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm thinking about something."

He said to several servants: "Our master has been repeatedly provoked by strong men these few times. The reason is nothing more than that he possesses a valuable treasure and is coveted by others. The other reason is that he is weak and is looked down upon by others, so he will be tempted by Xiaoxiao."

The servant opposite said: "Do you have a good way to change this situation?"

Sun Honglie chuckled and said: "I don't understand things about gods. But at least I know a little about things in the human world."

He said to everyone: "Our master is actually missing something."

Everyone said: "What's missing?"

"Fame!"

Sun Honglie said calmly: "Our master has always pretended to be a Confucian scholar, and he is also a scholar. As long as he has obtained a good name, he will be protected by the purple aura of culture. Which monster would dare to offend him?

That Zhang Shihong Zhang Juren is a mortal, but because he was chosen to be a Juren, the corpse demon had to spend a lot of time and energy to transform his skin into a human being, gradually destroying his yang energy, and did not dare to directly kill people and seize the treasure."< /p>

He said softly: "Our master is very upright. If he can join the Confucian sect, it will be a blessing for the Confucian sect. It will also give me an extra supporter. With the backing of the academy, even the emperor will be afraid of me."

Several servants nearby said: "In that case, why not tell the master?"

Sun Honglie hesitated and said: "Our master is a person who enjoys purity. If he joins Confucianism, he must care about the common people and must do some meritorious deeds in order to develop Confucian supernatural powers. People who like purity will definitely not like to be an official. If I were If you try to persuade him to get a meritorious degree, he may not be happy with it."

Everyone said: "You are not the master, how do you know that the master will not be happy? Just say it, whether the master will be happy or not will be up to you when the time comes. We just have to do our best as servants!"

Sun Honglie said: "That's right!"

In the early morning of the next day, when Li Mu was having breakfast, Sun Honglie expressed his thoughts.

"Achieving fame?"

After hearing Sun Honglie's idea, Li Mu burst into laughter: "I know nothing about Confucian classics, poetry and articles, how can I get fame?"

Sun Honglie said: "Today's world is in chaos, and there are many cheaters in imperial examinations. Although I can use my talents to gain fame, I can also achieve other kinds of wealth."

Li Mu laughed loudly: "What's the difference between using money to buy an exam and using money to buy an official position?"

He waved his hand to Sun Honglie and said: "Getting fame is a safe way, but I hate cheating the most in my life. If you want to take the exam, just rely on your true ability. Find a good teacher tomorrow, make up for the lessons, and let's be a candidate.
