After recalling the drone and replacing its battery with a new one, Li Shiming did not release the drone again but waited.
According to the information he had heard, apart from the cultivators, the rest of the Hao family were either prospective cultivators who had not yet started practicing, or mortals.
These immortal cultivation families settled near Zhongdu. One of the reasons for this was that they hoped that when younger generations with good spiritual talents appeared, they would be able to join the sect and thus drive the development of the family.
All the mortals who can be here are direct descendants of the Hao family bloodline.
In addition to serving the monks, they also have the task of reproducing offspring for the family.
Only when the number of newborns increases, there is a greater chance that there will be children with spiritual roots.
Li Shiming was waiting quietly, waiting for an opportunity.
That gathering of cultivators in Zhongdu taught him a lot about the world of immortal cultivation.
Such a family of immortal cultivators must be protected by a defensive formation. With his strength, he can't even break the defensive formation, let alone deal with the cultivators of the Hao family.
He is well aware of his strengths and has a plan in mind.
Every half an hour, he would release a drone to check the situation inside the Hao family.
After a long time, he suddenly perked up. The drone he released this time sent back a picture. Through the goggles, he saw a thermal imaging figure walking towards the gate.
Li Shiming took out his pocket watch and saw that the time pointed to four o'clock in the morning. He shook his head vigorously to shake off the fatigue of the night.
He looked towards the gate of the Hao family through the monocular telescope. The small door next to the gate opened, and a figure holding a lantern walked out of the small door and walked to the right.
Li Shiming used a drone to take an aerial photo of the nearby terrain. There was a small vegetable garden in the area on the right, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
Now I think that this person was going to that vegetable garden.
Under the surveillance of the drone, he also moved towards the vegetable garden.
"You just know how to bully me. When I give birth to a child with spiritual roots, I will return you all to you!" Hao Jin cursed softly as he walked.
As a direct descendant of the Hao family, Hao Jin shoulders the heaviest work and is bound to have complaints.
He had to prepare three meals a day for all the members of the Hao family. What made him most uncomfortable was that these members did not include monks. The monks ate spiritual food, which was not prepared by him.
The Hao family is a family of immortal cultivators with too many secrets, so they do not hire servants, and all work is done by the mortals in the family.
"Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you!" A sharp sword was pointed at the back of Hao Jin's neck, and a hoarse voice was heard at the same time.
Hao Jin was stunned and didn't dare to move at all.
After dealing with monks for so long, I had long forgotten about bloody courage.
"I'm a member of the Hao family, and my great-grandfather is a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining!" Hao Jin didn't dare to make too much noise, for fear of being stabbed to death by the other party, so he said weakly.
"Don't do anything stupid, I don't want to hurt you, I just want you to help me do something!" Li Shiming said in a low voice.
Hao Jin nodded quickly, but because of the nod, the sword behind his neck pricked him and he was so scared that he dared not move.
"Take this pill before you help me!" Li Shiming continued to order.
A black pill was delivered to Hao Jin's head. Hao Jin took the pill and swallowed it under the pressure of the sword.
"The pill you took is called the Three-Day Soul-Destroying Pill. If you don't take the antidote within three days, your whole body will rot and you will die after three days. As long as you listen to me, I will give you the antidote!" Li Shiming said in a deep voice when he saw him swallow the pill.
He was applying what he had learned. This set of tricks was used by Chief Escort Wang to deal with him. It was quite useful to deal with mortals. Even the Three-Day Soul-Severing Pill belonged to Chief Escort Wang.
Hao Jin was not frightened by the name of the Three-Day Soul-Severing Pill. Instead, he felt relieved when he knew that he did not have to die immediately.
As a mortal in a family of immortal cultivators, he knew the cultivators' methods. No matter how powerful the poison was, the cultivators had a way to neutralize it.
"Turn around and look at what I have in my hand!" Li Shiming ordered in a deep voice.
Hao Jin turned his head carefully and saw a man in black with a strange mask covering his face. When he saw the long sword in the black-clothed man's hand, he had no idea of resisting.
Although he was a mortal, his vision was not weak and he saw that the sword was a magical weapon.
No matter how poor the magic weapon is, the user is still a cultivator. He has a deep understanding of the huge gap between mortals and cultivators.
His eyes fell on the object in Li Shiming's hand, which was a flat round object hanging by a metal chain.
At this time, the flat round object was swaying from side to side, and his eyes could not help but sway along with it.
This was the first time Li Shiming used hypnosis, but his theoretical foundation was unparalleled. After making the pocket watch, he also looked up methods of using the pocket watch for hypnosis.
With his learning ability, he was able to master the theory in a short time.
Hao Jin was bullied in the Hao family, and as a mortal living with monks, he had significant flaws in his personality and psychology.
Of course, people in this world don’t study psychology much, so no one would know this.
But whether you know it or not, this kind of psychological defect in character becomes a gap for hypnosis to open the mind's defenses.
Hao Jin's eyes gradually became confused, and he seemed to be in a dream.
“In twenty breaths, you will forget about meeting me. The wine on the ground is the good wine you prepared secretly. You must transport the wine in without alerting anyone!” Li Shiming’s voice was like the scream of hell, like the whisper of a devil.
Then he placed four one-meter-high jars and a carrying pole on the ground, and his figure disappeared into the darkness.
Hao Jin stood there for twenty breaths, then was startled and saw the jar on the ground, revealing an excited look.
He took a shoulder pole, picked up the two jars, and walked towards the Hao family.
Due to hypnosis, his strength became extremely great and he could carry the two huge jars easily.
Li Shiming was already quite far away at this time, and he stopped only when he thought it was safe. Then he took out a monocular telescope and observed Hao Jin's movements.
Every time the jar shook up and down, Li Shiming was frightened, fearing that something unexpected would happen in advance.
Hao Jin came to the small door and saw a faint white light flashing. The small door was not closed before, so he walked in with his load on his shoulder.
The Hao family’s defensive formation has identity detection, and it is impossible for outsiders to enter.
Hao Jin put down two jars on the edge of the kitchen corridor, turned around and went out of the small door to pick up another two jars.
Li Shiming took out his pocket watch, checked the time, and then took out a huge pancake made of 'starlife' material and covered himself with it.
He activated another 'Primary Exorcist Talisman' and used his spiritual power to cover the huge pancake with mud with weeds. His whole body was buried in the mud and the drone was also taken back by him.
