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

I calmed myself down and tried hard to suppress the anger in my heart.

Li Mu began to organize the information he had obtained from Li Ling'er during the day.

"The martial arts value of this world doesn't seem to be as high as I thought. It's more like the martial arts world I know."

It was not until today that Li Mu realized that practicing martial arts is a mainstream idea in this world.

Children from wealthy families are taught martial arts as part of their early childhood education. Even children from poor families will be taught to strengthen their bodies.

This situation continued until recent years, when Emperor Hongwen promoted the idea of ​​scholars governing the country, and gradually more and more pure scholars emerged.

In the past, although it was difficult for ordinary people to acquire the internal strength of martial arts techniques, there was almost no threshold for simply polishing the body.

Thinking of this, Li Mu subconsciously touched the two bamboo slips that had been placed on the bedside.

"According to Li Ling'er, martial arts training is divided into three routes. Does my bamboo slip that records sword techniques belong to the internal or external school? And it does not include the most common method of physical training."

Then Li Mu felt relieved again.

"That's right. Body training should be a relatively easy method. It shouldn't be difficult to find a way to get it."

Li Mu turned around and looked towards the screen. Looking at the graceful figure that seemed to be there and not there in the moonlight, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“Oh, there’s a ready-made one right in front of you.”

After a little thought, Li Mu made up his mind, but his frequent tossing and turning woke up Xiao Zhao who was unable to sleep.

"Sir?"

In the darkness, Xiao Zhao's tentative moan was heard.

Li Mu quickly closed his eyes and remained still to avoid making any mistakes.

I almost fell into the trap of this little girl in the study before.

Li Mu couldn't help but sigh, "This is called a honey trap! What are those things in the movies and TV series I watched before?"

After a moment, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xiao Zhao's steady breathing.

"In any case, at least it is certain that you have the talent to practice martial arts. Next, as long as you have the most basic self-protection ability, it will be much easier to escape from here."

Not long after, Li Mu also fell asleep in his thoughts.

Xiao Zhao, who was sitting on the couch, turned around cautiously and looked at Li Mu's profile reflected in the moonlight, and was a little dazed for a moment.

. . . . . .

The next morning.

"Master, Master!"

Xiao Zhao called Li Mu to get up and wash up, just like the day before.

Later, there were a few more vegetarian dishes in the breakfast served. Xiao Zhao must have conveyed Li Mu's words to the kitchen.

Li Mu sat at the table in the main hall, staring at the food in front of him, waiting for a long time.

After confirming that the image in my mind would not appear, I tried each dish again.

After feeling that there was nothing unusual about my body, I felt slightly relieved:

"That's right. If I was caught red-handed yesterday and they poisoned the food today, I wouldn't have to think about running away. I could just hold my beautiful wife and wait for my reincarnation."

After making sure that the food had not been tampered with, Li Mu didn't hesitate to pick up the chopsticks and started to eat.

Then, he looked up in surprise at Xiao Zhao who was standing obediently beside him. He said incoherently before he had even swallowed the food in his mouth:

"Sit down and eat together."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhao was stunned at first, but she quickly reacted, her eyes full of joy, and she responded delicately:

"Yes, son."

Xiao Zhao also roughly understood Li Mu's temper, and sat next to Li Mu with a red face.

He picked up some food for Li Mu and ate it in small bites.

Li Mu ignored him and continued to sweep away everything in his path.

"Tell me about Xiao Zhao's childhood, about you and Ying Yu learning martial arts."

Li Mu saw that the food on the table was almost gone, so he prepared to get some food from Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao was drinking porridge in small sips. When she heard this, her face turned red and she lowered her head and replied, "Yes."

Li Mu looked a little confused, "Why are you so shy? Is there any paid content here?"

He coughed twice, signaling Xiao Zhao not to be shy and to speak quickly.

Then Xiao Zhao gently put down the bowl and chopsticks, took out the handkerchief from her arms, touched her lips with it, and then she slowly spoke in a soft and lovely voice.

As Xiao Zhao was talking, Li Mu was asking questions, and the questions became more and more detailed. He wanted to know everything about how to train the body, what is needed, and what to pay attention to.

To Li Mu's regret, Xiao Zhao had only vaguely touched the threshold of the third level and had no idea how to cultivate the five senses and internal organs.

"Where can I buy the medicinal herbs you mentioned?"

Li Mu asked casually. He didn't know whether the medicinal herbs needed for body refining that Xiao Zhao mentioned were precious.

"Those are common medicinal herbs, which are available in the palace. If you want them, Xiao Zhao will go get them now."

Although Xiao Zhao didn't know why Li Mu wanted these ordinary medicinal herbs for body training, she still spoke obediently.

Li Mu was overjoyed in his heart, but his face remained calm. He said calmly, "Don't worry, I'm just curious. I'll come back later. Go on."

The more Xiao Zhao talked, the more excited he became, and before he knew it, it was already noon.

Looking at Xiao Zhao's departing back, Li Mu let out a deep breath.

"This little girl is so lovable."

It's no wonder that Xiao Zhao has such a submissive character. No matter what request Li Mu makes, she will always consider Li Mu's best interests and won't even ask for the reason.

Before traveling through time, Li Mu had never seen a girl like this. Even his paper wives were not like this.

At this time, Li Mu's ears moved slightly, and he heard footsteps coming from outside the courtyard. He was delighted.

"So fast, little girl, you are efficient. I must reward you well in the future."

'bump! '

Li Mu was thinking with a lingering look on his face, how to reward Xiao Zhao.

I saw the door of the main house was pushed open with force.

Li Linger stood at the door with her hands on her waist, looking at him with a smirk on her face, and said jokingly, "I heard that the second brother wants to practice physical training."

Li Mu's heart skipped a beat. "Why did you invite this violent girl here? Xiao Zhao is too unreliable. Let me see how I punish you later."

Just as I was about to speak and thinking about how to explain, something suddenly flew in front of me.

Li Mu subconsciously grabbed it and took a closer look. It turned out to be a rhizome of some unknown plant. It looked somewhat like ginseng, but much larger than ginseng.

When Li Linger saw Li Mu steadily catch the medicinal ginseng, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked Li Mu up and down, becoming more and more curious.

In the past two days, she carefully recalled the day when she first met Li Mu.

She could confirm that the force she used to push Li Mu away was enough to throw him at least ten meters away.

But Li Mu returned instantly, and not only that, he caught the sword of the killer in the bamboo hat with his bare hands.

Li Ling'er believed that it was definitely not a coincidence and such a coincidence would never happen.

The reason why it took so long to confirm was because Li Ling'er was busy dealing with trivial matters in the palace during the day and had no time to think about these things.

Only when she lay on the soft couch in her boudoir at night would she recall what happened that day because of some details that made her face blush and her throat dry.

It was not until today that she learned that Li Mu wanted these primary medicinal herbs for body refining that Li Ling'er, after being extremely puzzled, decided to try Li Mu herself.
