"For such a small reason, the lives of all your loved ones may be ruined."
Li Mu smelled the fragrance of the medicine.
I found that the Ninth Prince was quite bold and used precious medicinal herbs.
Such precious medicinal materials are not common in Kyoto.
Aren’t you afraid of being discovered by the emperor?
It seems that all the servants in the prince's mansion were sent by the emperor.
"I don't have any relatives anymore."
"What about the people in the mansion? Can they survive on their own?"
Li Mu asked again.
At this time, Li Mu had already discovered a clue.
The servants in the mansion are different from those of other dignitaries.
That kind of spirit that allows one to hold their head high should not be possessed by inferior people.
It seems that the Ninth Prince was still influenced by Concubine Jing.
All the people sent by the emperor were subdued by the ninth prince.
"I……"
The Ninth Prince suddenly choked.
yes!
It doesn't matter if he dies.
Where are the little maids in the mansion?
They are all young.
In his heart, these servants were his sisters.
"If your cultivation remains the same, the Emperor won't care. What if your cultivation increases dramatically?"
Li Mu asked again.
The Ninth Prince's eyes suddenly widened.
He definitely couldn't hide the sudden increase in his cultivation from his third brother.
I guess my third brother also knows that he is practicing now. He just doesn't want to argue with him. After all, his strength does not pose a threat to the imperial power.
Once you have achieved success in your cultivation, the result is self-evident.
what to do?
The Ninth Prince closed his eyes and thought.
Li Mu shook his head.
Such a soft-hearted child will never make it in this world!
"Senior, do you have any ideas?"
After a long time, the Ninth Prince seemed to have figured something out.
"I have a technique that can conceal your cultivation level. Please study it carefully!"
After saying this, Li Mu turned and left.
He has wasted enough time here tonight, and he still needs to sign in somewhere else.
At the same time, the Ninth Prince felt a cool sensation on his forehead.
"Hidden God Technique? Senior, why are you helping me?"
There was no response for a long while.
The Ninth Prince knew that his predecessor had left.
Start to ponder the art of concealing the spirit.
He took a stroll outside the palace and then returned to sort out what he had gained.
"Finally, a sword."
Although it was an ordinary sword, it was a handy weapon for Li Mu.
It’s much better than using a broom.
After signing in for so many years, I finally got a sword.
Li Mu didn't know what to say.
Let’s celebrate!
How to celebrate?
In the previous life, his living habits must have been to set off firecrackers and sky rockets.
If you are not allowed to go to the city, then go to the countryside.
"Since the palace can't hold it, let's find another place!"
Li Mu didn't really want to celebrate.
I'm just in a good mood tonight. I've been suppressed for so many years, and it's time to release some.
If you don’t have firecrackers, then make one yourself.
One nitre, two sulfur, three charcoal.
This saying has long been popular.
Some online novels have even written about more powerful ratios.
Li Mu also vaguely remembered some of it.
Charcoal is readily available.
When Concubine Jing was menstruating, she also crushed a lot of charcoal debris.
The wall next to the toilet was covered with saltpeter.
The only thing that needs to be removed is sulfur.
The Imperial Pharmacy has the most of this stuff.
A lot of it is given to the West Palace and the East Palace every year to repel mosquitoes.
According to the ratios he remembered, Li Mu made one portion of each.
He stole some brown paper and rolled it into a tube with a stick, sealed the bottom with clay, poured gunpowder on it, and set the fuse, then sealed the top with clay.
At this time, Li Mu thought of another plant.
Sea sand!
Once this thing is done, it can be used as a fuse.
never mind!
I'll look for it later when I have time.
Doing a little every day, half a month later, Li Mu had more than a dozen firecrackers in his hands.
In the evening, Li Mu carried firecrackers and left the palace to punch in.
I plan to find a place in the mountains and forests outside to have some fun after signing in.
Um?
As soon as he punched in, Li Mu noticed a group of sneaky people appearing in the alley below him.
It’s a big city!
There are always some people hiding in the darkness.
Li Mu didn't care.
In the past, when I went out to check in at night, I would see many mansions engaging in various conspiracies.
"Help~"
Suddenly, a faint shouting sound came into Li Mu's ears.
Li Mu stopped and was about to get up, and carefully sensed the yard below him.
There was nothing abnormal inside or outside the yard.
Was there something wrong with my ears just now?
Open your ears again.
"Help~"
A faint sound came from under the yard below.
The voice is weak and the timbre is shrill.
"And a woman?"
Li Mu was no longer calm.
There were women imprisoned in dungeons.
"A flower thief or something else?"
He retracted his steps and continued to sit on the roof and observe.
After a while, the group of men in black entered the yard carrying a bag.
From the breathing, Li Mu could tell that the person in the bag was a girl.
"This time, once it's properly trained, it will surely fetch a good price."
The men below whispered.
"As long as she's obedient, even if she's not very pretty, it's fine if she's sold to someone else as a maid. If she's better looking, leave her to Yihonglou. She'll be a cash cow in the future!"
"Don't worry, once you enter our yard, I promise you will be obedient when you leave."
"Don't break your body. If you break it, it's worthless."
"I still understand the rules. Leave the rest to me."
