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

"Sister Ning'er, the saint you are talking about is called Qiu He?"

"My husband knows? That's right! Saint Residence is the former residence of this senior."

Hearing Ge Peining's words, Li Mu turned his head and looked at Qiu He in surprise, and whispered to Ge Peining:

"Sister Ning'er, this is the Qiu He you mentioned, Senior Qiu."

Hearing this, Ge Peining was stunned for a moment, then as if she thought of their current situation, her face slightly blushed, and she immediately hid behind Li Mu, looking as if she was too embarrassed to see anyone.

Li Mu thought of Ge Peining's shock, confusion, and even disbelief after she knew the truth.

I never expected it to be like this.

This, this, this is so cute.

Is this still my sister Ning'er who can make people obsessed just by standing there?

Li Mu was thinking about it, and then he saw Qiu He smiled and shook his head, saying jokingly:

"Little girl, do you still think I'm deceiving your husband?"

Li Mu felt someone pinching his waist and quickly said:

"Please give me some advice, senior."

Qiu He naturally didn't care about what Ge Peining had just said. He nodded slightly and said:

"Humans have seven emotions: joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire. I can roughly guess what you just said about your natural charm. After all, desire, love, and hate are the easiest to control..."

Listening to Qiu He's explanation, Li Mu roughly understood some of the key points.

According to Qiu He, the body of sound illusion is somewhat similar to the five elements affinity constitution mentioned by the Yin-Yang school.

It is the best physique for practicing Confucian music and sacrifice methods.

This is because the sound itself can affect people's minds, which are the so-called seven emotions, and the two can be said to complement each other.

And Ge Peining's previous state was similar to that of a charming girl.

It is a body of sound illusion that inadvertently emits certain sounds, which affect people's thinking and thus cause hallucinations.

At first, Li Mu found it difficult to understand until he thought of another word, sound wave.

I have to say that Confucianism does make sense.

Although Qiu He's explanation of the method of music sacrifice seemed very profound.

But after Li Mu's translation, the simple understanding is that it is an auxiliary that can add buff.

As he listened, Li Mu lost interest.

Instead, Ge Peining was more interested. She came out from behind Li Mu and reached out to touch the jade plate on the table.

The moment Ge Peining's fingers touched the jade token.

The jade token seemed to turn into smoke and disappeared.

Ge Peining paused, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately knelt down and saluted Qiu He, saying:

"Thank you, senior!"

Qiu He nodded slightly, then seemed to remember something, glanced at Li Mu and said:

"This method has not been modified, so if you want to practice, you still have to rely on this kid."

Hearing this, Ge Peining's cheeks turned slightly red and she nodded in agreement.

Li Mu was confused. What does it mean? You all know it, but I don’t?

He turned to look at Qiu He and asked, "What do you mean, senior?"

Qiu He glanced at Li Mu indifferently and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why do you have so many questions, kid?"

Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, "If I could beat you..."

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

Li Mu saw Qiu He was about to leave, so he hurriedly called out to stop him: "Senior, I have one last question."

Qiu He frowned, looking impatient: "Ask!"

"Is it really impossible to get out of here?"

Qiu He thought about it, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes: "I left this divine thought behind in the beginning, in order to give some guidance to the younger generation, but I never thought... Alas!"

Qiu He sighed deeply, looked at Li Mu and the others and said:

"It's not that there is no solution. After the catastrophe, there is no spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Xun Meng cannot replenish it by himself. You just need to wait for the spiritual energy in the magic weapon to run out, and then we will send you out."

Li Mu felt that this method was unreliable, but he still held on to the last glimmer of hope and asked:

"How long do we have to wait?"

Qiu He lowered his head, as if thinking, and said after a long while:

"About nine hundred years."

"How many!"

When he heard this number, Li Mu thought he had heard it wrong and shouted it out loud.

Qiu He then pressed his hand to signal Li Mu to calm down: "If you practice well, it shouldn't be difficult to live for 900 years."

Li Mu's mouth twitched, and he cursed in his heart, "Is this a question of whether I can live to that time?"

But he completely ignored what Qiu He said that one could live for 900 years by practicing.

Qiu He saw Li Mu's reaction, thought for a moment and then said to comfort him:

"For some unknown reason, most of Xun Meng's spiritual energy was drained away before, which is why the exit was closed. But the time here is different from that in the outside world. After you leave, there should be no changes in the outside world."

Hearing this, Li Mu perked up a bit and asked:

"Senior, what you mean is that nine hundred years here is just a blink of an eye in the outside world?"

If this is true, Li Mu can actually accept it.

Then Qiu He nodded and said, "Twelve days outside is one year here, you can rest assured."

When Li Mu heard the ratio, he instinctively felt that something was wrong. He immediately dipped his finger in the soup in the dish and started calculating on the table.

Ge Peining also frowned, with a cute look on her face, and waved her fingers.

Seeing this, Qiu He slowly retreated towards the door.

Li Mu looked at the numbers on the table, his mouth twitched, and he cursed directly:

"I'm Cio!"

Qiu He, who had just stepped out of the door, paused and asked, "Boy, have you figured it out?"

At this moment, Li Mu could no longer listen to anything else. His heart was filled with sadness.

"Thirty years, fucking thirty years, the four golden flowers in my family have all turned into four old onions!"

At this moment, he felt someone pushing his shoulder. He turned around and saw Qiu He frowning at the talismans Li Mu was drawing on the table. He asked:

"Are you kid trying to be mysterious?"

Li Mu ignored Qiu He's questioning and his mind was working rapidly.

When he was with Ge Peining, Li Mu seemed somewhat indifferent about leaving here.

But that was just to reassure Ge Peining. Li Mu was always thinking about ways to get out.

Thinking of the key words Qiu He mentioned before, spiritual energy, exhaustion, Li Mu immediately asked:

"Senior, is there any way to consume the spiritual energy here faster?"

"Tell me first, kid, whether you have really figured it out."

Qiu He stared at Li Mu, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"One thousand and eight hundred days, less than thirty years. Now it's your turn to answer my questions."

Li Mu said without hesitation.

Qiu He frowned: "No."

Then he explained: "The spiritual energy here has been refined by magic weapons and cannot be used by you."

"Is it really not because of you that I can't leave here?"

Li Mu's eyes were full of suspicion and his tone was somewhat aggressive.

Originally, he did not want to offend Qiu He. He planned to boil the frog in warm water and build a good relationship with the other party first.

But since the atmosphere has been set to this point, Li Mu no longer intends to hide it and asked directly.

"Why should I lie to you?"

Qiu He frowned, obviously dissatisfied.

"But in the previous illusion, Senior's state seemed a little unstable?"

Li Mu's words were already very tactful, and he also left himself some room for retreat.

However, Qiu He's words left Li Mu stunned:

"The illusion is only to help those who enter this place to fulfill their regrets. After all, I am just a wisp of divine consciousness, and there is only so much I can do."

???

"Regret? Whose regret? You set up an illusion of kidnapping a bride to satisfy someone else's regret? You are kidding me!"

Li Mu obviously didn't believe it, and Qiu He seemed to see through his thoughts and continued:

"I can only detect the strongest obsession in your heart, not all your memories, so... it can only be roughly accurate."

Qiu He's expression showed a rare hint of embarrassment.

Li Mu felt that the divine thought in front of him was becoming more and more unreliable. Seeing that he was anxious to explain, as if he was afraid of being misunderstood, he thought for a moment and asked:

"May I ask, Senior, what is my obsession?"

"I don't know!"

Li Mu was stunned. It turned out that you were just fooling me?

Just as he was about to speak again, he heard Qiu He said angrily:

"Boy, I have no ill intentions. If you don't believe me, I don't want to explain any more. Now I have a way to get you out. Do you want to listen or not?"
