Konoha Aogen

After more than a month of nursing, Gui Mo's arm injury has completely healed, leaving no scars, but the tattoos all over his arms are completely messy. The ugliness made her upset, but not too anxious. People who practice qi, especially those who have cultivated to her level, unless their hands and feet are cut off directly "with flesh and bone", ordinary skin and flesh injuries can be healed several times faster than "amateurs" .

In contrast, the body of a high-level "qi practitioner" dissolves and rejects foreign objects, which is also different from that of an "amateur". Therefore, no matter how painful the ghost moth's burn is, it cannot be relieved by drinking "Wangyou Pulp"; therefore, as the steel needle penetrates into the texture of the pigment, it will disappear after a few years; and therefore, that A small tattoo shop must not fail. Her beautiful body must be replenished over and over again...

"master". After his arm injury healed and he regained a victory over Zhou Lian, Gui Moth's heartache gradually subsided. That day, I rode a carriage and came to a tattoo shop I hadn’t visited in a long time. The name of this shop is "Tattoo". Just as it was born during the "Shun Empire" period, the first escort agency in the world was only called "Escort Agency".

The store has a small entrance, but there is a cave inside. This is a small courtyard with only "one entrance". In the middle of the courtyard, there is an extremely weird cedar tree. The cedar is so thick that it takes three people to hold hands to hug it. However, looking up, it is only as high as a two-story building. The dense and low pine branches cover the entire courtyard like a giant claw, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.

The small courtyard is located in the "inner city" of Kurong City. It was originally a private property purchased by Gui Mo with dirty silver. She loves this place very much. It does not require a vast square or a majestic palace, but only a cramped and narrow space, which can make people feel their own insignificance. In Gui Mo's view, this is undoubtedly an art.

Sure enough, there were no other guests today. "Su Mishi" is sitting in the room, dipping a wooden pen in coloring material and drawing something on the hard paper, as if he is imagining a new work. But who can present this strangeness that fills the room and wall for him?

Two maids bought by Ghost Moth to the "master" were lazily enjoying the afternoon sunshine through the cracks in the cedar. I don’t know how he enjoys these two pretty women. They have been there for many years. Do you want to change them? "Su Mishi" doesn't like to talk, and he never talks about this with Gui Mo.

"Little moth. I heard that you were injured, are you okay?" Su Mishi's "Zhongyuan dialect" is already very good. In recent years, even the weird points in the pronunciation have been almost corrected.

"Yes, everything is fine." Gui Mo's face was slightly red. Since the master heard that he was injured, he must have also heard about the humiliation when he was injured. However, in front of this person, Gui Mo didn't feel anything bad. After all, the master has seen his worthless look every time he "touches up the color" countless times. "It's just that everything is in chaos now." Gui Mo lifted up his left sleeve aggrievedly and gently placed it on the table.

"Yeah. Your 'Dark Realm Viper' is the same, so it wouldn't be right to change it. Just wait until it dissipates."

The "Holy God Religion" was introduced to the Western Regions with caravans at the end of the Liang Empire, and has now become one of the more than seventy major religions in the Western Regions. The concepts of "Heaven Realm" and "Dark Realm" are approaching " It is well known to everyone that it is near the entrances of several trade routes in the "Xiaoyun Mountain Range".

"Okay, then wait a few more years. My 'homework' has been wasted for a long time. Please continue teaching me today." Gui Mo begged softly. In front of "Su Mishi", she was always as well-behaved as a little girl.

"Su Mishi" walked into the inner room. After a while, he took out a "sheepskin" the size of a human back and placed it in front of Gui Mo: "You didn't finish it last time."

of. "The foundation of tattooing is painting skills. Gui Mo knew nothing about it, so he learned it all from scratch. Now that the painting skills can be seen by the master, the next step is to practice on the "sheepskin" with a needle dipped in coloring material.

After completing the unfinished parts, it was already dark outside.

"It's not a big step back." Su Mishi looked at the sheepskin and nodded.

Gui Mo couldn't tell whether this was a compliment: "Master, when can I come for real?"

"It's almost done now. It's just... we don't have any guests." Su Mishi said sadly. This small shop, or courtyard, is not allowed to have two or three outsiders a year, and even if there are, almost all of them are from the Western Regions. But it was precisely because this art was withering and declining in the "Western Regions" that there was no way to recover, so "Su Mishi" came up with the idea out of despair and tried to bring this art to the "Eastern Region" to spread its branches.

Unexpectedly, this method of tattooing is taboo in the "Eastern Land". Regardless of the "powerful and wealthy businessmen" or the "traffickers and pawns", regardless of the "literati" or "warriors", all regard this method as heretical magic. When all the gold coins were exhausted and he was desperate, he finally met a guest who didn't curse viciously or turn around and run away after seeing his body.

After a period of time, there was an endless stream of people opening their own shops. "Su Mishi" thought things were finally getting better, but later he realized that the second, third and even fiftieth guests were all just to cling to the first guest. The first guest was none other than Ghost Moth.

At that time, the "Zhongyuan dialect" of "Su Mi Shi" was still very unfamiliar. He could only tell Gui Moth with difficulty, "I don't like this." But what exactly "this" meant, he was unable to explain clearly. After that, the fake guests disappeared, and he didn't know what happened in the meantime. Later, he moved into this small courtyard where he didn't have to pay rent.

"There are no guests. But I have plenty of 'people'." Gui Mo did not dare to say this to the master. "Su Mishi" told her very seriously that if the fire is not enough, it cannot be practiced with real people. That is a kind of blasphemy! However, in the prison cells of the "Security Corps", it is unknown how many death row inmates have suffered "malfeasance" from Lord Mo.

Regarding the "no guests" issue, Gui Mo was also helpless. She had provoked After Image, teased Yun Luo, and encouraged Ye Xuan, but nothing had been gained. Hanying and Yunluo had come to the store to take a look, but one was not interested and the other didn't have the courage to try. Ye Xuan was even more incorrigible. Every time he scolded him venomously: "If you don't want to sleep with me, don't seduce me!"

"Master, we are not in a hurry. Sooner or later..." Gui Mo comforted him feebly. Thinking of Ye Xuan's sarcasm, the last half of the sentence was insincere and could never be uttered again.

"If your 'master' wants to succeed, he must first change from an 'artist' to a 'businessman'. Why does he drive away those customers who cling to you? Why not accept them as apprentices?" Ye Xuan said this , Gui Mo couldn't bear to talk to the master no matter what.

On the way back to the "Night Palace", Gui Moth sat in the carriage, feeling a little depressed. She didn't care whether the art of "tattooing" could flourish in the Central Plains, but she couldn't help but feel a little sad when she thought of her master's lonely, lonely silhouette, tracing drawings with a wooden pen.

Out of the need for "defense", or in other words, because of Ye Xuan's delusion that "he will be persecuted at any time", "Ye Gong" has never "entered the carriage". Not to mention the kind of luxury carriage that Ghost Moth rides in. The carriage is large and airtight, and it is almost exclusively used for hiding assassins.

The carriage stopped at the west gate closest to the "Moth Courtyard". Gui Mo lowered his head and walked towards himself lazily.

's small courtyard. These days, she has become accustomed to the feeling of walking in the "Night Palace", but she always lacks the arrogance of the hostess in the past, and she can't look directly into the eyes of the guards and maidservants.

After finally finishing the not-too-distant journey and returning to her "moth yard", the afterimage was taking a nap in her room, leaving behind a table of messy cups and plates and cold dishes that had been pulled and picked. Seeing that Gui Mo was recovering from his injuries, Han Xing and Lone Goose had already gone on strike. In recent days, afterimages have been accompanying her every night.

"What's wrong?" Afterimage showed that she didn't look very happy.

"No, I just feel that Master... is quite pitiful." Gui Mo replied.

"Oh, you still have the heart to pity others. I think you are almost better. To congratulate you on your recovery, my sister will give you a 'great kindness'. Are you standing and listening, or are you kneeling to listen?" Half lying on the soft couch near the "Babu bed", he looked grateful and lazy.

"What's the 'great kindness'? Can Zhou Lian let me do whatever I want?" The ghost moth had been stabbing at the sheepskin all afternoon. At this time, he was sleepy and exhausted, and was in no mood to argue with the afterimage.

"I have been thinking about a female prisoner all day long. You are really promising! It's Mu Qing'er." The last three words, the afterimage deliberately concealed the sound.

"Who?" Gui Mo's half-lidded eyes immediately popped up, shining with dim light, almost wishing to pass through the afterimage on the couch. "Sister Qing'er, what's wrong..."

Afterimage sat up straight, leaning on the back cushion of the soft couch, hooking his fingers towards the ghost moth as if summoning a pet. Gui Moth immediately took off his shoes and crawled to the feet of the residual image, sitting sideways with her, not hiding the anxious and pleading look in his eyes.

Seeing this, Afterimage didn't want to tease her anymore, and said bluntly: "I have contributed to Hu Kang's matter. Sister Qing'er made me a wish. I said... let her stay with you for one night, and she agreed."

Hearing this, Gui Mo sat on the couch in a daze, motionless. After waiting for a long time, there was still no trace of joy on her face, and there was no desire in her eyes that could burn through the whole room.

fire.

"Little Moth, are you okay?" Afterimage poked her left shoulder with his finger. Gui Mo swayed slightly, still stunned. "Are you... so stupid with joy?" She suddenly felt that she might have done something stupid.

"Xiaoying, please go back first. I want to be alone for a while." The voice was soft and hollow. Like a puppet whose soul has just been extracted.

"You..." Afterimage didn't dare to leave. For a moment, she didn't know what to ask to confirm whether she was conscious.

"I'm fine, I just suddenly felt... thank you." Gui Mo looked at the afterimage and forced a smile, then lowered his head, hugged his knees, and ignored her.

Afterimage had no choice but to leave angrily and timidly. Before closing the wooden door of the bedroom, he secretly glanced at her for a long time.

Exile Diary - Excerpt (42)

Anese's entry was quick and showed no signs of "leakage". After practicing Qi, "menstruation" has not happened again. However, since we live under the same roof and have similar days, it is not so easy for others to notice.

Another difficulty is that Anese is not free to test his powers. This morning she dug off a corner of the wooden table, hoping that Lin Jue wouldn't notice anything unusual.

Now even if Lin Jue is away, Anese won't sleep with me at night. She is afraid that she will hurt me by moving around in her sleep. I would still talk to her under the quilt for a while before going to bed, and then tell her to go back to her cabin.
