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

Li Mu looked at the bone stick in his hand, turning it over and over for a long time.

It can be confirmed that this is clearly a flute made of bones.

The entire flute is as clear as white jade, eight inches long, and has eight small holes of the same size evenly distributed on the flute.

It’s not that Li Mu doesn’t like it, but there is some disappointment.

Li Mu has always been a reckless man, and his weapons are either a heavy sword or an iron mace.

Now these two instruments, first the scroll and now the bone flute...

"Forget it. Actually, the bone flute is not bad either. At least it's more stylish."

In Li Mu's impression, the only people who are good at using a ruler, besides Mo Wuyan's ruler without forks, is the red and green rapping turtle in "Ninja God Turtle".

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Li Mu touched the bone flute in his hand with lingering fear. After taking a look at it, he found it much more pleasing to the eye.

Thinking about the information about the Eight Yao Ruler, he grasped the flute and a wisp of true energy rushed out from his dantian and was injected into the flute.

Li Mu waited for a long time and found that he was not sleepy at all, so he let out a long breath.

"finally…"

At this moment, the bone flute vibrated slightly, making a pleasant sound like a gushing spring.

Li Mu frowned, looking somewhat unhappy.

This bone flute was obviously resisting Li Mu.

Li Mu immediately raised the bone flute and swung it twice in the air. The originally pleasant sound instantly turned into an extremely harsh buzzing sound.

"Li... Li Mu, I feel dizzy."

At this time, Hu Qingyao's voice rang in Li Mu's ears, and it sounded a little painful.

Li Mu cast his eyes towards the bone flute, stretched out his other hand, held both ends of the bone flute, and said:

"Since he doesn't listen, it would be troublesome if I kept him."

He pretended to break the bone flute.

"Li Mu, wait, wait a minute..."

Then, Li Mu paused and heard Hu Qingyao's reluctant voice.

"This is the only thing my mother left behind..."

"Li Mu is right. If you don't obey, you will definitely be in trouble in the future."

However, he changed the subject halfway through his words and spoke in a firm tone.

Having said that, Li Mu was too embarrassed to take action. He simply thrust the bone flute in front of Hu Qingyao's head and said calmly:

"How about I give it back to you?"

Unexpectedly, Hu Qingyao's snake head shook like a rattle, and said anxiously:

"No, no, Li Mu has it. Whether it's kept or destroyed, it's all up to Li Mu."

“Has this become a hot potato?”

Li Mu frowned, and for a moment he didn't know what to do with the bone flute.

At this moment, the bamboo slip pattern on the palm of the hand flickered slightly.

Then, the bone flute disappeared out of thin air as if by magic.

Li Mu was startled and quickly opened his palms. He could sense that the bone flute was sucked into the small world by Xun Meng.

Just as he was about to investigate, he saw that the bone flute suddenly returned to his hand.

"Space magic weapon!"

Before Li Mu could figure out what was going on, he heard Hu Qingyao's shocked voice.

"Li Mu actually has a space magic weapon! Li Mu, Li Mu, you are so awesome!"

"It's just ordinary, not a rare thing."

Li Mu said something in a Versailles way, then he realized something was wrong and looked at the bone flute in his hand:

"This feels... the same as before!"

Immediately, the bone flute in his hand melted like ice and snow, gradually turning into jade water and sinking into Li Mu's palm.

Li Mu knew that this time he was not absorbed by Xun Meng, but...

"Recognize the master?"

Li Mu let out a surprised cry.

Then he saw a bone flute appear in the palm of his hand, where the bamboo slip pattern had originally been.

At the same time, a feeling of melancholy came over me.

The addictive mark that had been planted on him before was also eliminated.

"Is this really a freebie?"

Li Mu knew that even if he did not abide by the agreement with Hu Qingyao's mother, nothing would go wrong.

He immediately put his hands together and raised them above his head, saying to himself:

"Senior Qiu, it was my fault before. I shouldn't have said bad things about you behind your back. You are a magnanimous person. Please don't argue with me..."

Although Li Mu was not clear about what exactly happened, it was obvious that all of this was related to Xun Meng.

Then he quickly patched up his previous slander against Qiu He, turned his head to look at Hu Qingyao, and asked:

"Go pick fruit?"

"Huh? Oh!"

Hu Qingyao's voice was a little dazed. The snake body trembled slightly, and it turned its head and burrowed into Li Mu's clothes. Its soft voice seemed to be able to squeeze out water.

"All, all listen to Li Mu."

Li Mu strode towards the back of the house, but when he was about to turn the corner, he frowned and turned to look at Zhao Chuyi who was lying in the distance.

After turning the corner, Zhao Chuyi disappeared from his sight.

After a little thought, he raised his hand and swung out a stream of white energy, shooting towards Zhao Chuyi.

The white true energy gradually turned into a solid entity in mid-air, becoming the shape of a bone flute, standing steadily beside Zhao Chuyi.

Seeing this, Li Mu let out a sigh of relief and then took a step forward.

"That human woman is very important to Li Mu, right?"

"Ah."

Li Mu did not hesitate, but just nodded lightly without giving any further explanation.

"Then she will be very important to me in the future!"

Hu Qingyao's voice became very serious, as if she was making a guarantee.

However, when Li Mu heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he felt a little unspeakable.

As for this little white snake, due to the disparity in strength, most of the tricks were to deceive and please it.

But people are all made of flesh and blood.

Such endless displays of goodwill will more or less touch one's heart.

"I promise, I will find a way to get you back to the fox clan."

Li Mu made up his mind.

Even now, he probably doesn't even have the qualifications to know about such an existence.

Even though the seal no longer had any effect on him...

He raised his hand and touched Hu Qingyao's little head, and said in a gentle tone:

"Qingyao is a good... girl."

"That's natural."

As they were talking, the man and the snake arrived at the backyard.

Li Mu looked at the ordinary fruit tree in front of him and couldn't help swallowing.

"With these fruits, are you still worried that you can't go to the demon tribe?"

Thinking of this, Li Mu stepped forward impatiently.

I don’t know what kind of fruit tree I am looking at, but it looks to be at least seven or eight meters tall.

The fruits on the tree are countless.

Li Mu took a few steps and jumped up, then there was a thud and he fell heavily back to the ground.

"Li Mu!"

Li Mu gritted his teeth, rubbed his old waist, and turned to look at Hu Qingyao.

Then she flicked her snake tail and spit out her tongue, and a strong wind shot towards the fruit tree.

"All right!"

"Sure?"

"It's really good. I forgot there is a barrier here..."

Listening to Hu Qingyao's delicate explanation, Li Mu's mouth twitched. He always felt that this white snake might be black.

This time, Li Mu did not rush to jump onto the treetop. Instead, he walked to the place that blocked him before and reached out to touch it.

"I really forgot about it. Li Mu is so stingy!"

Li Mu didn't care when he heard Hu Qingyao's complaints. He would never suffer the same loss twice.

Seeing that there was indeed no obstruction, Li Mu was thinking, should he get a basket?

But out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of a dead branch next to the fruit tree.

The dead branch was about the length of a forearm, half of it planted in the soil. It was as ordinary as it could be.

However, Li Mu stared at the dead branch, as if he had lost his mind.

"I think I've seen this somewhere..."
