"In the yard, having breakfast." asked Manager Sun.
"Still having breakfast..." Mu Nan looked at the sky. It was already late, so why was he still having breakfast?
Out of curiosity, Mu Nan and others followed Mu Hanyan to Qu Shanling's yard.
The square table, more than three feet wide, was filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat, some roasted, some fried and some stewed. In the middle, there was a golden and juicy roast suckling pig. Qu Shanling was sitting behind the table, holding a roast chicken in his left hand and a pork leg in his right hand, stuffing them into his mouth with bites of food.
The sunlight shone down, making his eyes shine with oil, and his old face was also stained with oil and shimmered with oil, making him look much younger.
"Master Qu, don't you have to bathe, burn incense, and fast for several days?" Mu Nan asked, stunned.
"You need to bathe, burn incense, and fast for several days to have enough strength." Qu Shanling answered vaguely while gnawing desperately. This is the same as the principle of gaining weight before losing weight. I don't know whether it is the truth or the fallacy.
"Master Qu, you didn't eat enough last night?" Mu Nan looked at his round belly and asked in confusion. They had eaten at the same table last night, and he remembered that the old charlatan had eaten a lot. How could he be so hungry again?
"Burp... I'm full, but it's not enough." Qu Shanling burped and touched his stomach. It seemed that he really couldn't eat anymore. Then he put down the pork leg with only a bone left, sighed and said.
Mu Nan was a little confused. Is it really so strenuous for ordinary astrologers to cast spells? They actually have to eat so much. Why have they never heard of it before?
He soon realized that he was wrong.
"Have you finished eating? If so, let's start." Mu Hanyan said.
"Yeah, it's done." Qu Shanling nodded. Even if it wasn't done, there was nothing he could do. He simply couldn't eat any more.
After Qu Shanling finished speaking, he took out the Star Illusion Thousand Machines Technique and handed it to Mu Hanyan.
"Wait, let's finish the hand gesture from yesterday first." Mu Hanyan did not stretch out her hand.
These hand gestures are only used for divination by Qu Shanling, and missing one or two moves may not make a big difference. But for her, they are the best aids for cultivation, and missing even one move will not do.
"Why don't we wait and think about that move later?" Qu Shanling said with lingering fear.
"No, astrology, like cultivation, requires a gradual approach. You can't force things. Even missing a single step won't do." Mu Hanyan said firmly, acting like a master.
"Okay, then I'll try again." Qu Shanling said with a bitter face.
Mu Hanyan perked up and looked at Qu Shanling intently.
This time, Mu Hanyan did not carry Hua Yue, Zirong and the others on her back. Since they couldn't understand it anyway, they just treated it as a way to broaden their horizons.
"Young Master, do you want us to step aside for a while?" Hua Yue vaguely guessed that what Mu Hanyan and Qu Shanling were doing at this time must be related to astrology, so she took the initiative to speak.
"No, no, just watch here." Before Mu Hanyan could say anything, Qu Shanling said generously.
Aren't astrologers' secret skills supposed to be kept secret? Why is this old charlatan so generous? Hua Yue and the others were a little puzzled.
Although it was strange, they were all curious about the legendary astrology. Seeing that Lian Qu Shanling didn't mind, they all stayed to satisfy their curiosity.
Qu Shanling took a deep breath and began to practice the hand seals from yesterday.
With the experience from the day before yesterday, and the improvements Mu Hanyan made in combination with the Tianxin technique, the first few hand gestures became more fluent and natural, which was pleasing to the eye. However, when it came to the last crucial move, his face became obviously ugly and his breathing became rapid.
