The Taiwei's mansion was lifeless and filled with a smell of decay.

"Report to the Lieutenant that the villain is back."

"Can you see that gentleman?"

"seen."

"explain!"

"The gentleman said, he said..." The visitor hesitated, and when he saw the old man showing signs of anger, he hurriedly said, "He said that Lang Jun is domineering and domineering on weekdays, and has a bad reputation among the people of Changjing. This punishment is well deserved.

, and also said that the punishment was light."

"Cough cough cough..."

"Lieutenant!"

"Then he doesn't want to break the curse?"

"Captain, don't be angry! That Taoist is very arrogant! In my opinion, even if he has some moral integrity, the Crown Prince does not need to be polite to him, let alone ask for such generous gifts! This is Changjing, under the emperor's feet, it is only called the county government.

Just capture him with the patrolling Imperial Army, and at the worst possible outcome, ask the experts from Juxian Mansion to take action!"

"Go to the county government office and find someone to go to the military camp."

"yes!"

Time passed gradually, from morning to noon.

The Taiwei Mansion was quiet except for the old man's cough.

The old man with white hair and beard was dressed in rich clothes, sitting on the chair of the imperial master, holding a cane, and several servants stood behind him. The middle-aged housekeeper was kneeling on the ground in front of him, and the young man sat beside him with a pale face.

There was a piece of paper in front of me, and the story of what happened was written on it.

The old man has read it over and over again.

The officers and soldiers went there several times without success, which made them even more anxious.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Lieutenant..."

Someone immediately looked at the old man with attention.

"It's okay. Master's magic medicine. Since I took the medicine the day before yesterday and lay down for a day, I have been much better in the past two days and can walk." The old man said, glancing at the butler who was kneeling below and his body.

The young man sitting next to him who couldn't hear what he said hit him with a cane and said, "You are an evildoer. If you fail to succeed, you will fail. Let's see what trouble you cause."

The man raised his head and his face became even paler.

The old man's mouth could be seen opening and closing with an angry look on his face, but no sound could be heard.

This extreme quietness frightened him.

At this time, someone else walked in quickly from outside.

"Lieutenant!"

"explain!"

"The officials and the imperial guards went there again. This was the third time. It was the same as before. As soon as I entered, I felt like I was possessed by a spirit. I immediately came out and walked all the way back to the county government and the camp."

"Ahem... Where is Juxian Mansion?"

"I just went to Juxian Mansion and talked about this matter, but the people in Juxian Mansion said that they would ask the Imperial Master for instructions." The speaker paused and lowered his head even lower, "After hearing this, the Imperial Master

, ordered that no one be allowed to go out, and the Imperial Advisor also said that we should stop looking for the officials and the imperial guards, so as not to cause more trouble."

"Is the Imperial Master really saying that?"

"That's true."

"It's true."

"Tell me, Lieutenant, you didn't discipline your son well, so that he behaved wantonly in the city and became deaf. This is... it's a sign of mercy and tells us to consider ourselves unlucky and stop entangled with him."

"You're such a eldest son! How dare you humiliate me like this!"

The old man suddenly became furious.

After thinking about it for a while, he got even angrier. He picked up his crutch and hit the man next to him again. The butler who was kneeling on the ground was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

But this is an only son, how can you ignore it?

Not long after, someone came in to report, saying that the county government had received the order from the national division and did not dare to send any more people. Almost as soon as they finished speaking, someone else came to report that the Forbidden Army was in a similar situation.

"Asshole!"

The old man was so angry that he almost died of anger.

But I have only a few days left to live, and my only son has become deaf. How can I be reconciled?

"Go and invite Master Mu!"

"yes!"

Gradually it went from noon to mid-afternoon.

The people sitting did not move, and the people standing did not dare to move. The people kneeling on the ground felt that their knees were no longer theirs, but they still did not dare to move. It seemed that even the air in this room was stagnant.

Until a middle-aged Taoist priest came outside.

The old man immediately stood up to greet him.

This man's surname was Mu, and his name was Mu Shou. He originally studied Taoism at a Taoist temple on Luming Mountain. Later, he came down to Changjing. He originally wanted to be in Luming Mountain with the Fengtian Temple where the Imperial Master was, so he came to join the Imperial Master.

Unexpectedly, although the Imperial Preceptor accepted him, he did not reuse him. He stayed in Juxian Mansion for a few years, but because of some things that made the Imperial Preceptor angry, he was kicked out, and he has been living in the world ever since.

This person is very profound and good at incantation.

After coming to Changjing, especially after living in the Jianghu, I interacted with all kinds of strange people in the Jianghu, and my Taoism improved even more.

He had used a spell to harm a court official before, but he was found out by the Wu De Guards and was almost captured and beheaded. In an emergency, it was the old man who saved him and was grateful for his survival.

When this time comes, I immediately salute.

"Pindao has met the Taiwei. I wonder why the Taiwei called Pindao over in such a hurry?"

"Sir, save my son!"

The old man quickly told him what had happened and asked him to remove the spell from his only son.

The life-saving grace was so great that Mu Shou did not hesitate. He immediately walked up to the young man and looked at it carefully, but gradually frowned.

"how?"

"Back to Taiwei, I have not noticed any traces of curses or Taoist magic from Ya Nei." Mu Shou said, "However, there are many kinds of magic in the world, and there are many that I have never seen before."

"What should we do?"

"The trouble should end it."

Mu Shou said, sniffed, frowned, glanced at the old lieutenant, hesitant in his heart, but said nothing.

"That Taoist is very abominable. I first sent people to ask for help, but he refused to break the curse. Later I sent officers and soldiers and the imperial army, but they all came back in vain. When Chang Yuanzi found out, he even humiliated me.

, and also ordered the county government and the imperial army not to move again, which is really too much to bully people..."

"National Division……"

Mu Shou narrowed his eyes.

"I wonder if there is a way, sir, to let that man know how powerful it is?" the old lieutenant said, "I don't want to take his life, just let him know the benefits and risks, and just come back obediently and break the curse on my son."

"Lieutenant, do you have any of the items left behind by that Taoist?"

"No."

"Do you know his birth date and his last name?"

"I only know the last name, but I don't know the date of birth."

"That's a bit troublesome."

"Is there any other way?"

"If I meet him once, I can do it. However, I am not good at fighting with others head-on. I heard from the Taiwei that that Taoist may have some skills..."

"Perhaps a portrait will do?"

"portrait?"

The Taoist was stunned for a moment, then thought for a while and then said: "If you can paint exactly the same thing, that's fine, but I'm afraid it's hard to find such a painter."

"To be honest, sir, I met someone at the beginning of the year. His ancestor was the famous Dou Qiuyao. Drawing people can come true, and painting tigers can make a living." The old Taiwei said, "In his generation, although there is no such person as Dou Qiuyao,

He is very talented, but also has superb painting skills. He is almost psychic. No matter what he sees, he can draw it again, especially the charm, which is almost lifelike."

"Where is this person?"

"He is working as a guest in my house. He has seen the Taoist priest yesterday and this morning. Ahem, cough..." The old lieutenant coughed for a while, "But this person rarely draws people. Although I have shown kindness to him,

But he doesn’t have the kindness to save lives, so I don’t know if he is willing.”
