Chapter 9 Ye Yu's Secret (1/2)

Mu Family.

In a bright study, Mu Zhian leaned back in a chair, holding a thin book and reading.

These days, cultivating immortals requires not only practice, but also theoretical knowledge.

The Mu Family is rich in resources, and the records of refining essence, refining qi, and even refining spirit and returning to the void are very detailed. Mu Zhian is now a third-grade qi refining, and there is still a long way to go before refining spirit, but it will be helpful for future practice to take a look at the experience left by the predecessors in advance.

After roughly flipping through the book in his hand, Mu Zhian sighed with emotion: "My brain didn't work very well before, but fortunately I'm not too stupid. I know I have to advance to the qi refining stage before messing around."

The official entry into the path of cultivating immortals starts from the essence refining stage.

The essence refining stage is generally the best age between ten and fifteen years old, because during this period, children's fantasies about the opposite sex are not so exaggerated, and they will not think about naizi every day, so it is the most suitable age for cultivation.

Because, the most important requirement during the period of refining essence is not to lose one's virginity, which is the same for both men and women.

Even if Mu Zhian was addicted to pleasure in the past, it was only after he was promoted to the Qi training stage.

After all, once one loses one's virginity, the essence and qi cannot condense into a cauldron in the body, and it is harder to enter the Qi training stage than to ascend to heaven.

While flipping through the book in his hand, Mu Zhian suddenly saw a colorful stream of light passing by the window.

Mu Zhian's eyes condensed slightly, and he said to himself: "Another paper crane...?"

He stretched out his fingertips, and the paper crane flew into the window with the colorful stream of light and landed on Mu Zhian's fingertips.

"The fairy spirit on this paper crane... is the same as yesterday's." Mu Zhian's eyes moved slightly, and he said to himself in surprise: "This speed of sending a message... Could it be that the person who wrote the letter is also in Tianxuan City?"

Paper cranes are usually used to send messages between cultivators. There can be fixed objects, or the paper cranes can fly aimlessly everywhere, just like drifting bottles.

The speed of the paper crane's message transmission is naturally determined by the distance.

The other party replied so quickly, it is very likely that he is someone in Tianxuan City... or it is one of those immortal masters.

However, the latter is unlikely.

After all, how could such a strong man have such worries like a spring girl?

Mu Zhian thought as he opened the paper crane, and the content of the letter jumped into his vision.

"This handwriting... is indeed the same person as yesterday." Mu Zhian said to himself.

He glanced at the content of the letter, which was generally about some emotional consultation.

For example, what to prepare for the first time leaving the family, whether to leave a letter, or to tell the elders in the family in advance.

With the idea of ​​helping others, Mu Zhian thought for a while, picked up the brush and dipped it in some ink, and then wrote some of his suggestions in the letter.

After doing all this, Mu Zhian folded the letter into a paper crane again and threw it out of the window.

The paper crane flapped its paper wings and gradually flew away from the sky.

"I hope I can help that 'bird in a cage' lady." Mu Zhian looked up at the paper crane that gradually disappeared from his sight outside the window, and said to himself.

After reading books in the study for a while, Mu Zhian left the study and went to the hall to find a servant, saying: "Send a spy to secretly monitor Ye Yu of the Ye family. If there is any news in the next few days, come and report to me as soon as possible."

Judging from Ye Yu's performance yesterday, he clearly did not look like the waste who was decadent because of the loss of talent.

It is necessary to pay a little attention to it.

Ye Yu...?

The servant was obviously stunned for a moment, thinking why did the young master let the spy monitor a waste?

But he did not ask more, but answered "yes" and left the study.

Knowing too much is not a good thing. For these servants, this sentence must be kept in mind.

Next... let's wait for the news.

Mu Zhian sat in the hall and poured a cup of tea leisurely. After a leisurely rest, he got up and went to the training ground to receive training from the maid.

Wei Mengrou had been waiting at the training ground for a long time.

She stood with a sword on her back, wearing a dark blue top and a patterned skirt. Her chest proudly supported the fabric, giving her a kind of awe-inspiring beauty.

She has a firm breast, a thin waist, and long legs. No wonder I wanted to touch Sister Mengrou before... Mu Zhian couldn't help but glance at her twice more, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It's just a pity that the other party is a cultivator in the realm of refining spirits. If she is not willing, no one can force her.

Wei Mengrou raised her eyes and looked at the big boy in front of her, and said with some surprise: "I didn't expect you to last for two days."

If it were the past Mu Zhian, he would probably have started crying and shouting that he didn't want to train after a day, and then sneaked to the Jiaofangsi early in the morning to appreciate the dance of the courtesan, and ordered three or two courtesans to feed him some wine.

However, this guy not only did not sleep in or go to the Music Bureau, but came to the training ground early in the morning...

The sun really rose from the west.

Mu Zhian just smiled and said, "I will keep going."

Wei Mengrou raised her eyebrows slightly and said lightly, "I hope so."

She paused and continued to ask, "Did you send someone to investigate Ye Yu?"

Mu Zhian nodded gently, "That person is a little weird, I am a little concerned."

How did Ye Yu know that Bai Ruoxi was in Mu's house last night?

Obviously, someone secretly leaked the news to Ye Yu... and the purpose is self-evident. On the one hand, it is to arouse Ye Yu's hatred towards the Mu family, and on the other hand, it is probably to prevent the Mu family from intervening in the affairs of the Bai family.

The other party is worried that Bai Ruoxi's dedication will make the Mu family protect the Bai family, so they used Ye Yu.

Then the answer is obvious. The one who leaked the news is naturally the Gongsun family and the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce who suppressed the Bai family, or one of them is secretly playing tricks.

"The spiritual energy emanating from Ye Yu last night was at least the seventh level of refined essence." Wei Mengrou said.

Mu Zhian raised his eyes slightly, a little surprised, and said: "I remember that no matter how Ye Yu practiced for a period of time in the past, the spiritual energy could not be absorbed into the cauldron, and even the spiritual energy in the cauldron was slowly lost, and later he became a waste... So it seems that he should have solved this problem?"

Wei Mengrou nodded gently.

"I saw him on the street two months ago. At that time, he was not even in the Refining Essence Stage." Wei Mengrou paused and continued, "In less than two months, he was promoted from a waste who was not even in the Refining Essence Stage to the seventh level of Refining Essence. The eldest son of the Ye family is indeed a genius."

Mu Zhian nodded slightly.

More than a genius, this is simply a monster.

Under normal circumstances, the biggest requirement of the Refining Essence Stage is to condense the cauldron in the body, and this often takes two to three years to achieve.

Ye Yu returned to the Refining Essence Stage in just two months, and even stepped into the seventh level of Refining Essence. Such a talent for cultivation is simply terrifying.

However, this is probably not Ye Yu's own talent...

Ye Yu must have some unspeakable secrets, so the mysterious man in black robes is so concerned about Ye Yu, and even said that he would just hand Ye Yu over to him after the matter was accomplished.

Mu Zhian doesn't believe that a mysterious master in the Refining God Realm came to Tianxuan City on purpose without any purpose.

...It's impossible that the man in black robes is Nan Tong, and then he took a fancy to Ye Yu, right?

Mu Zhian shook his head gently, and stopped thinking about it. He raised his sword and pointed it at Wei Mengrou who was standing gracefully, saying: "Come on, Sister Mengrou, please teach me!"

Wei Mengrou said "hmm" gently, and her attitude still looked cold.

However, when she raised her sword to Mu Zhian, the look in her eyes when she looked at the boy seemed to be slightly softer.

...

In the next two days, Mu Zhian received the same paper crane reply every day.

The "bird in the cage" girl in the letter was hesitant at the beginning, but was encouraged by Mu Zhian and was somewhat moved. Until today's reply, she had decided to leave the tribe and pursue her own freedom.

Mu Zhian was very pleased with this, and gave her some words of encouragement again, and told her to remember to bring money when she went out.

Yes... According to Mu Zhian's impression, the girl was probably a guy who didn't know much about the world. It was estimated that she would be accompanied by servants when she went out, and she didn't know to bring some money or dry food.

After writing the letter, Mu Zhian folded it into a paper crane and threw it out of the window as usual.

That afternoon, Mu Zhian was sitting in the study reading a book when there was a slight knock on the door.

"Master Mu, I'm back."

It was the spy who was ordered by Mu Zhian to monitor Ye Yu two days ago.

He came back in just two days. Is there any news... Mu Zhian said in a deep voice: "Come in."

The man with a black veil quietly walked into the study and said respectfully: "Master, you are indeed as good as a god. That Ye Yu is indeed strange."

Glancing at Mu Zhian, who looked indifferent, the spy continued: "This morning, the Ye family held a clan competition, and Ye Yu defeated several geniuses in the clan... I observed his level at that time, and he had at least the strength of the seventh level of refining spirit."

Sister Meng Rou is really good at judging people, worthy of being a master of the refining spirit realm... Mu Zhian understood slightly in his heart and said: "Any other information?"

"Ye Yu seems to be very close to the third son of the Gongsun family these two days." The spy said.

"How did Ye Yu hook up with Gongsun Zan?"

Mu Zhian frowned secretly, feeling a little surprised.

The patriarch of the Gongsun family has six children. The third son is Gongsun Zan. Like Mu Zhian, he has a very bad reputation in Tianxuan City.

But if we compare the bad, Mu Zhian is still much better than Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan will take action against any woman he likes, regardless of whether she is married or not, while Mu Zhian at least will not tease decent women.

He usually only looks for courtesans, and occasionally he will fall in love with some beautiful girls, but he usually pursues them to win their hearts.

No matter what era it is, as long as you have money, it is easier to pursue girls, not to mention that Mu Zhian has a good foundation. This gentle and handsome face can easily capture the hearts of girls.

In short, people in Tianxuan City usually try to avoid Gongsun Zan when they see him.

It stands to reason that Ye Yu should also know Gongsun Zan's reputation and should avoid suspicion, but why did he not avoid suspicion, but instead had some exchanges with Gongsun Zan...?

Mu Zhian thought for a moment, ordered the spy to withdraw, got up and left the study, and walked along the corridor to the gate of the courtyard.

"Master, are you going out?"

The old man was watering the flowers in the courtyard, and when he saw Mu Zhian, he couldn't help but ask.

"Well... I'm going to the Jiaofangsi." Mu Zhian nodded.

Old man: "?"

Usually, Mu Zhian went to the Jiaofangsi secretly, and would try to get away with it by making jokes when he ran into him, but today he was so direct...?

Finally stopped pretending?

Mu Zhian continued to explain: "I went to find someone."

Gongsun Zan was also a frequent visitor to the Jiaofangsi, and he wanted to test it out to see if he could get something out of him.

The old man said "um" softly, and said: "Just be restrained."

Obviously, he didn't believe what Mu Zhian said.

Go to the Jiaofangsi to find someone? Who can he find?

The Oiran?

Mu Zhian didn't explain this, but just smiled and was about to walk out of the yard.

At this time, a servant came quickly and whispered:

"Master, Miss Bai is asking to see you in the side hall."

As he said that, he looked at Mu Zhian with a look full of weirdness and envy.

The weirdness comes from wondering why this beauty from Tianxuan City has been running to the Mu family every now and then in the past two days, and the envy comes from the fact that this young master Mu can come into contact with the beauty every day... maybe they have already had some intimate things.

If the people in Tianxuan City knew that it was Mu Zhian who finally won this beauty, they would probably not be able to sleep and dream peacefully, right?

"Bai Ruoxi is here?"

Mu Zhian repeated it, and then pondered for a moment, and said: "You ask her to wait for me in the teahouse opposite the Jiaofangsi."

The attendant was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at Mu Zhian, and tentatively said: "Young master... If Miss Bai asks you where you are going, what should I say?"

"Just say what you should say, tell the truth." Mu Zhian smiled.

"Or you can just tell her directly that I'm going to the Jiaofangsi."
