Don't ask for perfection

The next morning, Mu Xuanying got up and set off.

This trip, Mu Xuanying herself felt ridiculous.There are often rumors outside that Mu Xuanying will be the leader of the next generation of Haoqi League, but only a few people know that Mu Xuanying was born with three yangs and no veins, which are difficult to cure and can only be suppressed with drugs.Once it occurs at an age, it is fatal.How can such a person lead the entire Haoqi League? Everything is just a rumor.In the limited life, let Mu Xuanying do more things that won't be regrettable. The people in this Haoqi League basically agree.Although they don't say it, everyone understands it in their hearts.

But for so many years, Xie Yuan has never given up on finding a way to extend his life for this apprentice, even if the hope is slim, he is willing to try it. There are records of the technique, but so many years have passed, I am afraid that all that can be lost have been lost.

There is only one Gu technique that is still circulating today.

Huang Quanyin.

In the legendary introduction of continuation of life, this kind of Gu worm is originally a pair, one is placed in the body of the person whose life is being extended, and the other is placed in the body of the person who is closest to him.One life for another.

It's a pity that Huangquanyin is listed as a forbidden technique, and now only a few disciples of the five poisons in the depths of Miaojiang can know a thing or two.

But such a slim hope was found by Xie Yuan, and he found the Gu Master at all costs, hoping to find a way to continue his beloved disciple's life.

When it comes to Mu Xuanying's closest people, Xie Yuan actually knows a lot, but it's hard to ask about many things.When I saw the lantern he put up yesterday, I felt a little more certain in my heart, it should be that person who didn't run away.

Yangzhou

The Jiangnan area is still as prosperous as ever.It seems that the flames of war will never reach this fertile land.

Mu Xuanying came to an inn, put away the large items on her body, took some silver with her, and went out.

There were many vendors selling gadgets on the street, and Mu Xuanying saw a doll sold by a little girl in the corner at a glance, and couldn't help walking forward to take a closer look.

"Little brother, do you want to buy a doll?"

Mu Xuanying realized that she was in a daze, and couldn't help feeling a little ashamed. "This doll... Did you make it yourself? It's cute."

"Hmm! I sewed it myself, little brother, do you want to buy it?"

Mu Xuanying gave the little girl some broken silver, picked up the doll and left.

Sure enough, as expected, the doll's head can be disassembled, and there is a note inside, judging from the ink on it, it should still be new.

"Mingyue Tower in Yangzhou City in the evening, heroes must go there. —— Miao Yu"

The Miaojiang area has always been a place full of mystery, and there are many things that people in the Central Plains can't believe exist there.After all, Miaojiang is far away from the imperial city, and some things are not easy for the emperor to deal with now. Now that there is war, it is even more impossible to take care of it, so that some ancient secret techniques of Miaojiang are being remembered again.

The Five Immortals Sect is exactly such a place.An unknown place deep in the swamp that seems completely isolated from the rest of the world.Gu, poison, and insects are very common here.Although many dangerous secret arts have been banned, there are inevitably other ways to pass them down, and some people even rely on these forbidden arts to make a living.

Yangzhou is a new beginning in the evening.The streets and alleys were lit up, and some taverns didn't open until evening.The number of hawkers on the street gradually increased.

Mingyue Tower is the largest restaurant in Yangzhou. It has everything that a restaurant should have, and even some things that it shouldn't have.There were rumors that some declining aristocratic women were assigned as official prostitutes, and most of them entered the Mingyue Tower.Although she is still a girl from the capital, her status has been turned upside down.

When evening fell, Mu Xuanying arrived at Mingyue Tower as scheduled.The bustard mother praised the young man for being so handsome, and half pushed and half pushed the girl into Mu Xuanying's arms while introducing the girl.

Mu Xuanying declined and looked around for a week, but she didn't find the woman from Miao Jiang, so she asked, "I'm looking for a girl surnamed Miao, may she be here in Mingyue Tower?"

"You're talking about Miao Yu?" The bustard mother burst into laughter when she heard that.

"Exactly."

"Yes, but at this price..."

"Guarantee that no point will be given less."

Mu Xuanying put some silver taels on the counter, and the bustard's mother saw it and quickly called, "Miao Yu, come down quickly to pick up the guests!"

Mu Xuanying thought to herself that in the troubled times, she would do anything to make a living.How could such a nice girl really end up in this kind of romantic place.However, based on the silver taels just paid, Mu Xuanying reckoned that the other party should be living well in this place.

After a while, a woman in purple clothes and silver ornaments came down slowly, her figure was naturally excellent.The sound of the silver bell on her body following her steps was very pleasant, and the upward arc of the corner of her mouth meant something unclear, which made Mu Xuanying feel very uncomfortable. "Young master, please follow me."

"Miss Miao, long time no see." The censer in the private room was emitting smoke, and after Miao Yan closed the doors and windows, Mu Xuanying greeted unhurriedly, "The last time I saw you was a long time ago at the Haoqi League. Unexpectedly, today is a fall..." Mu Xuanying didn't continue in the second half of the sentence, he had indeed seen Miao Yu before, but at that time she came to the Haoqi League as an envoy of the Five Poisons.Today, we meet again in this kind of place, it is really hard to describe.

"There's no need to be polite between you and me. Have you thought about what happened this time? Huang Quan Yin, using human blood as a lead. It can change the deepest things in your memory. It can change you, the Haoqi League, or the entire Tang Dynasty." , of course, the price is your life. Master Mu, are you sure?"

"Of course, this is also what the Haoqi League means."

"As expected of the Haoqi League, we will spare no expense, even using forbidden techniques." Miao Yu seemed very satisfied with Mu Xuanying's answer.She also said by Xie Yuan that Mu Xuanying probably still has justice in her heart and is a little ignorant of world affairs. If he doesn't make up a proper reason for this Huang Quanyin, he might not be willing to follow.

"However, how much life can I have if I enter this Huangquan Yin?"

"When you enter the Underworld, you are no longer a living person. Where did you get your longevity?" Seeing this, Miao Yan smiled even brighter, thinking that he is really ignorant of the world, and even that old fox Xie Yuan can believe what he said. .

I don't know how he will react if he knows the purpose of the real Huang Quanyin.

Mu Xuanying was silent for a long time before speaking, "So, let's start."

Mu Xuanying took a snake-shaped scimitar from Miao Yu's hand. Hundreds of worms were carved on the scimitar. The moment she got the knife, Mu Xuanying felt a biting chill. "Master Mu, please pour your own blood into the ditch on the knife."

The knife was very sharp, and it didn't take much trouble to cut through the skin. Mu Xuanying added some force to make the knife edge deeper, and the blood slipped into the ravines all around along the knife handle.

This knife seemed to suck people dry, and it was still not full after more than an hour. The wound had solidified many times, and it was cut again and again.

Mu Xuanying finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell headlong on the table.

Miao Yan looked at the scimitar full of blood with satisfaction, and laughed ironically, "If Huang Quanyin can change anything, it won't be listed as a forbidden technique. It's still too naive."
