What a lucky world!

Chapter 58: Shepherd has been wandering for ten years, alone and helpless, and now I wish to worship you as my god——

The night is getting darker.

The auction in Baibaotang is also coming to an end.

Ning Shuang made two more bids later, but both were snatched away by others. Zhang Mu withdrew in time and did not argue anymore.

But every time after stopping, Ning Shuang would glare at Song Yuanqing fiercely, thinking that it was Song Yuanqing who asked Zhang Mu to disrupt the situation.

In response, Song Yuanqing said, I feel wronged.

There is no way. In the adult world, some grievances have nowhere to be redressed.

……

Holding the dressing box, Zhang Mu returned to the courtyard.

He turned the dressing box over and over again, almost taking it apart, but he still couldn't find the opportunity.

The Tianji Ranking simply stated, "I bought a ninth-grade opportunity at the Baibaotang auction." There was no instruction to burn it in the fire like the last time, "Cold Dragon Kills Spring."

Huh? Fire?

Zhang Mu looked at the dressing box and felt a little moved.

Or burn it?
But when Zhang Mu took out the tinder, he hesitated again.

This is made of wood.

If this method is not used, it will really be burned to ashes.

This opportunity is really hard to understand.

"Meow..."

At this time, a familiar voice sounded.

Xuan Ji jumped in from the window, walked skillfully to the bed, jumped directly on it, found a comfortable place to lie down, looked at Zhang Mu and said, "What are you doing, meow?"

Zhang Mu showed the dressing box in his hand and said, "I thought there was something strange about this dressing box today, so I bought it to study it, but I didn't find anything."

"Hmm?" Xuan Ji suddenly became interested, "Let me see it, meow!"

Zhang Mu threw the dressing box in front of Xuan Ji. Xuan Ji first sniffed it with her nose, and then picked it up with her claws.

Xuan Ji opened the small drawers one by one, and suddenly she meowed.

"Xuan Ji, what's wrong?" Zhang Mu asked hurriedly.

Xuan Ji slapped the dressing box with her claws, and immediately a small baffle of a small drawer in the dressing box was knocked out by Xuan Ji.

"I don't like this thing, meow~" Xuan Ji looked at the small baffle with disgust, "It feels disgusting."

When Zhang Mu heard Xuan Ji say this, he reached out and picked up the small baffle.

The baffle is about the size of a palm and not thick. It feels very solid in the hand. There is a flying eagle engraved on it, which looks lifelike.

Zhang Mu hesitated for a moment, circulated his internal energy, and touched the baffle.

However, at the moment when Zhang Mu's internal energy touched the baffle, the sound of an eagle's cry rang in Zhang Mu's mind. The next moment, he seemed to see an eagle flying out from the baffle and rushing directly towards his face.

The Tianji List in Zhang Mu's mind immediately vibrated violently, and the jade pendant from Li Shishi on his chest also instantly became hot.

Almost at the same time, Xuan Ji meowed and pounced on Zhang Mu with her claws waving.

However, none of this was as fast as another voice.

A cold snort was heard outside the courtyard. In an instant, a ripple seemed to ripple across the entire space, directly dispersing the shadow of the flying eagle. At this time, the Tianji List also quieted down, and the jade pendant on the chest returned to normal. Xuan Ji missed and fell directly into Zhang Mu's arms.

Zhang Mu held Xuan Ji in his arms and looked outside cautiously and nervously: "Who is it?"

……

With the blessing of Zhang Mu's Zhenwu fate, he could have noticed even if Song Yuanqing appeared in the courtyard, but now, even though he knew there was someone outside, he couldn't even notice it.

Although the other party seemed to have saved him just now, Zhang Mu still touched Xuan Ji's back and used the secret code they had agreed upon to remind her to take him away immediately if things went wrong.

There was silence outside the house for a moment, and then a "haha" laugh was heard, but it immediately stopped and turned into a low "hehehe".

Amidst the laughter, a burly figure pushed the door open and walked in.

In the flickering light of the oil lamp, Zhang Mu saw the other person clearly.

He was very tall, about 1.9 meters tall. His clothes were bulging out from his muscular muscles. There were a few wrinkles on his face, as if they had been carefully carved out by the years. It was obvious that he had a very outstanding appearance when he was young. The most eye-catching thing was his snow-white beard that hung down to his chest.

Zhang Mu was sure that this person was definitely not from the escort agency.

At this moment, Zhang Mu took a step back cautiously and said, "Senior, you are..."

The visitor looked at Zhang Mu and felt a little regretful.

This wasn't the best time for him to plan their first meeting!

It was just that he was a little surprised when he saw that thing just now, and this kid's reckless attempt made him lose control, which exposed his tracks. In this situation, would saying "Be my son" be misunderstood as a moral joke?

After a brief thought, the man smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I... I am not a bad person."

"I was introduced by Han Chun."

"Han Chun?" Zhang Mu looked puzzled. "Who?"

"Bandits, mountain bandits, from Qianyuan Stronghold... Do you remember?"

"Brother Han?" Zhang Mu was stunned. "Are you from the Shanzhai?"

"It's not that bad." The old man walked directly to Zhang Mu's bed, took off his shoes, and sat on the bed with his legs crossed. "Let me tell you, this is what happened."

"Old Han has been making a fuss in the village, saying he's found a younger brother in Wan'an County. That guy is so smart and clever..."

"It's said that those who are in heaven are rare and those who are unrivaled on earth..."

"I was wondering, is there such a person in our area?"

"I'm on business, so I came to take a look when I passed by Wan'an County."

Zhang Mu looked at the other person again and said, "And then?"

"Isn't it the same thing that happened just now?" The old man stretched out his hand. "Come, let me see."

Zhang Mu hesitated slightly after hearing this, but still obediently handed the small baffle in his hand to the other party.

The old man took the baffle and looked at it carefully, then nodded: "It really is this thing."

"Senior, what is this?" Zhang Mu asked

"The Demon-Sealing Plate!" said the old man. He just raised his head and saw that Zhang Mu and the black cat in his arms both had clear eyes and looked cute. He immediately had an idea.

Isn’t this an opportunity to get closer?

The old man cleared his throat and said, "Back then, there was an evil sect in the martial arts world called the Demon Sealing Sect. They used secret techniques to seal demon souls and use them for their own purposes."

"Then feed it with human souls to increase the demon soul's combat power."

"He is notorious for his crimes."

"Later, it was Zhuge Mingzhu, the Prime Minister of the Southern Yu Kingdom, who asked the Tianji Sect to intervene, and ultimately, the Fengyao Sect was completely wiped out."

"This demon-sealing token is the method used by the Demon-Sealing Sect to control demon souls."

"It is said that most of them were destroyed by Zhuge Mingzhu back then. I didn't expect that they are still circulating."

The old man looked at the demon-sealing token again and said, "It was supposed to contain the soul of a Moon-Eating Eagle Demon... but it's been crippled, with only a few remnants of its soul remaining. The power it can exert is probably only that of a Qi Condensation Realm."

"Moon-Eating Realm?" Zhang Mu asked curiously.

"Yes, the first three realms of the demon race: Condensing Qi, Eating the Moon, and Swallowing the Sun."

"It corresponds to the first three realms of our human race: opening the meridians, nourishing the fluids, and gathering the gallbladder."

When Zhang Mu first heard about the realm above Tongmai in the human cultivation system, he was a little curious, but after thinking about it, he decided to ask questions related to himself first.

"Senior, what happened just now?"

"You idiot...you idiot kid, how dare you just do anything?"

"This demon token hasn't recognized its master yet. If you connect it directly with your inner energy, the remaining demon soul in the token will instinctively steal your soul to replenish it!"

"Then how do you recognize the Lord?"

"Simple, just drop your blood and acknowledge your master." The old man said, "But the demon spirits in here are almost all gone, so it's useless for you to acknowledge your master."

"Unless you master the secret technique of the Demon Sealing Sect and feed it with human souls, there is still a possibility of recovery."

"But that is an evil way, and it is unacceptable to the human race."

Zhang Mu shook his head upon hearing this. He really wasn't interested in this kind of true demonic path. But...

"What a pity! I spent a lot of money on it..."

The old man looked at Zhang Mu, his eyes rolling. He stroked his beard and said, "It's not completely useless. I've heard of a method that can also activate the Demon Sealing Plate, and it doesn't require any harm..."

"Oh? Senior, how do we do it?" Zhang Mu asked hurriedly.

The old man stroked his beard and said, "You and I are not related, why should I teach you?"

Zhang Mu looked at the old man, thought for a moment, nodded, and said with a bow -

"Senior, I felt very close to you the moment I saw you."

"I have been wandering for ten years, alone and helpless. I now wish to pay my respects to you, Senior—"

"Big brother!"
