I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 848: The method of rejuvenation.

What kind of man-eating monster and kidnapping of my mother-in-law are secondary.

What Li Mu was most concerned about at this moment was why Yuan Jiaoniang, who was at least in her fifties, still looked like a loli.

What unknown secrets are there?

Li Mu, with a yearning for the unknown, asked sincerely,

"Yuan Jiaoniang, right? How old are you?"

As soon as these words came out, not only Yuan Jiaoniang, but even Xuanjizi's face changed, and he reminded in a deep voice,

"My friend, we have something important to do..."

"Old Bench, this is none of your business, you'd better shut up!"

Li Mu didn't even turn his head and immediately called out "national quintessence".

Although Xuanjizi didn't understand what the word "Lao Deng" meant, he knew from the tone that it was not a good thing.

But at the moment, he really couldn't do anything to Li Mu, so he flicked his sleeves and walked back into the house.

Shan Yang wanted to scold Li Mu for being disrespectful to his mentor.

Then he thought of a possibility, and looked at Li Mu with a little more relief in his eyes.

Although Xu Doudou's voice was not loud just now, he still heard it with his good hearing.

Li Mu obviously knew the true face of Yuan Jiaoniang, which was why he did this.

...Although he was a little ignorant of etiquette, he still kept his original heart when faced with major issues, which made Shanyang very satisfied.

Seeing the fiery look in the man's eyes, Yuan Jiaoniang subconsciously took two steps back and asked in a trembling voice,

"Little boy, what are you going to do?"

"Old, I am over 70 years old, please don't mess around!"

Hearing this, Li Mu's mouth twitched. This old guy thinks I'm a pervert?

However, when he heard Yuan Jiaoniang's age, Li Mu's eyes became more and more fiery, and his guess should be correct.

He first held Yuan Jiaoniang's thin little hand, then pinched her cheeks and said in amazement,

"Tell me, how did you do it?"

Li Mu could be sure that apart from this voice, there was almost no sign of aging on Yuan Jiaoniang.

Her face is so tender that it seems like you could squeeze water out of it, and her bone age is indeed four years old.

"You, what do you mean?"

Yuan Jiaonian's expression was filled with horror, and her old voice was shaking constantly.

No matter she was captured by Shanshan before or faced difficulties from Shanyang, she had never been afraid.

At her age, she has already become indifferent to life and death, and living one more day is a blessing.

But for some reason, when facing this young man who was obviously very handsome, I felt fear in my heart.

"I'm asking you why it became like this."

Li Mu looked at Yuan Jiaoniang back and forth, and the memories in his mind became clearer and clearer.

He was certain that the Yuan Jiaoniang he had seen before was around seven years old, a little older than she is now.

Yuan Jiaoniang was stunned for a moment, then she understood what Li Mu meant. After thinking for a moment, she asked,

"If I tell you the truth, will you let me go?"

"No!" Li Mu refused without even thinking about it.

"I think your kidnapping of a good family is not fake. After all, you wanted to capture Shanshan before."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Yuan Jiaonian raised her head and let out a long howl. This young face coupled with this laughter was indeed a bit weird.

After a while, Yuan Jiaoniang stopped laughing, her tone full of mockery.

"Why should I tell you, old woman?"

"Boy, are you too fanciful?"

"No, you will tell me." Li Mu showed a weird smile on his face.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "click" sound.

Yuan Jiaoniang's right index finger bent upward in an astonishing arc, and did not stop until the nail touched the back of her hand.

"You!" Yuan Jiaoniang gritted her teeth, but did not scream. She just stared at Li Mu fiercely.

"Kid, kill me if you can!"

"Wrong answer." Li Mu shook his head, and then Yuan Jiaoniang's second finger was broken.

"You little bastard! Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go."

Yuan Jiaoniang gritted her teeth, sweat breaking out on her forehead.

"wrong again."

Then there were two consecutive "click" sounds.

Shan Yang couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he put his hand on Li Mu's shoulder and frowned.

"My friend, it's OK."

For him, eliminating demons and defending the way of righteousness was just a matter of a snap of the fingers, but he could not accept Li Mu's cruel behavior.

"Get out of the way."

Li Mu's shoulders trembled, and Shan Yang felt a strong force coming from his palm. He took several steps back before stopping.

"Do you still remember the little girl in the dark alley of South City?"

"What you taught her is the technique that stops the growth of the body, right?"

Li Mu spoke. He was sure that he had seen the woman in front of him in Ying Yu's memory.

But by then, the woman must have grown a few years older, so Li Mu did not recognize her at first sight.

In addition, her physical condition is almost exactly the same as Ying Yu's.

Yuan Jiaoniang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Mu with doubtful eyes.

"You, who are you?"

Of course she remembered, but that was more than 20 years ago. The man in front of her must have still been drinking milk even after he was born.

The martial arts she practiced were ancient fragments her father found in an ancient tomb.

The method of cultivation is completely different from the current Three Qi Method.

But perhaps because this method was incomplete, her cultivation improved rapidly. In less than ten years, she leapt into the Hunyuan Realm.

But what came along with it were changes in her body.

Every fourteen years at the summer solstice, she would experience symptoms of rejuvenation.

She started practicing at the age of four and reached a bottleneck at the age of fourteen.

Therefore, every time she disperses her energy, she becomes the four-year-old she is now.

If you want to recover, you must absorb the energy from the same source.

It is the true Qi, blood, and essence of those who practice the same technique.

She was deeply impressed by the little girl that Li Mu mentioned.

He was the most talented person she had ever met in all these years.

In just three days, he went from being an ordinary person with no knowledge of martial arts to an external martial artist who could control his blood and energy.

Yuan Jiaoniang had her car overturned because of this incident before, so she was extra careful.

When she first started practicing martial arts, she met a little boy with excellent qualifications.

He almost killed her when she absorbed the same energy as the other party.

Therefore, what she taught these "sacrifices" later were all the castrated versions that she had modified based on the original fragments.

It only changes the three energies in the cultivator's body to have the same origin as hers, and the increase in cultivation is secondary.

Yuan Jiaonian remembered that the little girl was very alert and would quickly escape at the slightest sign of trouble.

At that time, she had just recovered to the third level and was unable to pursue at all.

Originally, she planned to find the little girl and kill her after she fully recovered.

But not long after, the previous dynasty was destroyed, and she never heard anything about herself, so she thought that the little girl was dead.

"I remembered?"

Li Mu looked at her sternly and said in a cold tone,

"If you cooperate, I will give you a quick death. Otherwise..."

"Little friend!"

However, before Li Mu could finish his words, Shan Yang stepped in front of Li Mu and said with a frown,

"Whatever you want to know, you don't need to use this method."

His meaning was simple. If you have some magic that can make people tell the truth, why do you have to torture them here to extract a confession?

Li Mu tilted his head to look at him and said nothing, but his meaning was very clear.

Don't meddle in other people's business.

Shan Yang pondered for a while, thought of a possibility, took off the bracelet on his wrist, and handed it to Li Mu.

"My friend has used Shuo Lei before, so he should be familiar with this. Just reverse the luck method completely."

Li Mu took a quick glance and saw that it looked like a very ordinary bracelet, with 108 maroon beads, fine patterns and a shiny surface.

"A seventh-grade spiritual weapon, it looks like it should be used with great concentration."

At this time, Jun Jiuling's voice came to my ears.

"This Taoist priest must be asking you to use the spiritual energy in this string of beads to cast spells."

"I didn't realize he was quite generous."
