I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 227 Regaining Freedom
These magical powers recorded in the Taiyi Mysterious Method do not require Qin Mu to specially practice, but are the magical powers brought about by the method itself. When the cultivation level is reached, these magical powers can be understood naturally.

And the auspicious golden elixir he condensed can even cover up his cultivation.

Anyone who probes his cultivation will not be able to detect the auspicious golden elixir.

In this way, in the eyes of others, he is just a monk at the peak of foundation building.

And the spiritual roots he possesses are also covered by various innate treasures.

Qin Mu recalled this and couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of behavior of hiding trump cards was more in line with his wishes.

Immediately afterwards, he started thinking about the next way.

According to the description of the Taiyi Mysterious Method, he next needs to find innate five elements to assist his practice, but this is not easily accomplished.

After all, he was trapped in the archives building and couldn't even get out.

He couldn't expect to rely on his own monstrous luck to attract the innate five elements to smash through the formation outside the archives building and fall in front of him.

"Brother Qin is a person that I trust, but the rules are like this. Even if I want to release you, I still..."

He quickly got up and hid aside.

Qin Mu nodded lightly and glanced at Qiufeng again.

Qin Mu felt that if something like this happened... with the strength of the archive formation, it would be more likely that the innate five elements would kill him.

When he thought of this, Qiu Fenglai's thin cheek slowly emerged from the stairs, followed closely by his body wearing Baihu official uniform.

But he was thinking deeply. After his face stiffened for a moment, he smiled again and said in a gentle voice: "Brother Qin, Deputy City Lord Qi was your boss before. I don't think you need to introduce me to my brother."

After hearing his laughter, Qin Mu couldn't help but be startled, and said secretly: "Qiu Fenglai will never come in without permission, and he won't even dare to let me out... Could it be someone from the Imperial City Demon Division?"

The next moment the voice sounded, a young woman with a fresh appearance, a cool temperament, and heroic brows, wearing a black shirt and red armor, and a pair of black boots with red stripes, stepped on the stairs. Walked up.

"Qiu Baihu, stop talking nonsense. I don't have that much time to listen to your chatter."

Immediately afterwards, loud laughter in the autumn wind sounded from downstairs.

Could it be that he really got it right?

Qin Mu couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Qi Shayu's attire. She didn't expect that after becoming the deputy city lord, she would still be dressed like the banner lord in the Demon Suppression Department.

The person who came was none other than Qi Shayu, who had been promoted to deputy city lord after not seeing him for a long time.

As soon as Qiu Fenglai showed up, he smiled and said: "Brother Qin, you must have been depressed these days... Brother, I have been thinking about you day and night. The first thing I do when I am on duty every day is to go and watch the things done for you in person." The captain of the rice cook must let them cook the dishes carefully.”

Just when he thought of this, the formation that enveloped the archives building suddenly emitted fluctuations, as if it had been touched by something.

Qiu Fenglai, who was standing next to him, looked ugly for a moment because of what Qi Shayu said just now.

After saying this, he shook his head and sighed.

The moment he stood firm, the formation suddenly converged on its various abilities, and the transparent light curtain outside the window shattered silently, turning into light spots and dissipating.

Before he finished speaking, a familiar but cold voice sounded from the stairs.

After Qin Mu sensed the fluctuations in the formation, his expression was startled.

Qi Shayu also nodded to Qin Mu with a complicated expression at this time, pursed his lips, and said in a cold voice: "Qin Mu, you are fine."

Although he had some guesses after seeing Qi Shayu appear, he still asked: "You two are here this time..."

After he was halfway through speaking, Qi Shayu said: "Qiu Baihu couldn't contact the four Qianhu for a long time, so he submitted your resignation to the City Lord's Mansion. I... although I have the name of a Deputy City Lord, I am actually a A handyman has no right to handle this matter, and King Song is busy with official duties, which is why you were trapped here for half a month. "

Qiu Fenglai followed her words and said with a smile: "King Song came back today. After seeing your resignation, he asked Deputy City Lord Qi to take you to the City Lord's Mansion. He wanted to see you in person."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his voice and reminded: "As far as I know, King Song has an eccentric temperament and a violent nature, so you have to be careful when dealing with him."

After Qi Shayu heard his voice, he couldn't help but frown, and his voice became much colder.

"Qiu Baihu, it is a serious crime to discuss your superiors without permission, not to mention that you are talking about the King of Song..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Qiu Fenglai smiled pointedly and said: "There are only three of us here. I think Vice City Master Qi will help us keep the secret because I am also kindly reminding Brother Qin, right?"

Qi Shayu frowned deeper and stared at Qiu Fenglai with a strange smile.

She always felt that there was something in Qiu Feng's words, but she didn't know his intentions.

And in the next moment, she knew that those words were not her feelings, but the truth.

Qiu Fenglai deliberately showed a look of enlightenment and said, "I suddenly remembered that the reason Brother Qin had a different spiritual root was because you asked He Ying to get it to Tang Qianhu..."

When Qi Shayu heard this, his expression immediately changed.

Because of this incident, she always felt ashamed of Qin Mu.

Qiu Fenglai chuckled and said again: "Brother Qin, you have to be more careful later. Don't believe anyone else. Brother, I am a hundred households. Even if she informed the King of Song about what she just discussed about her boss, she would have to You can't punish me until Qianhu arrives."

"But you are different. If King Song learns about this and deliberately examines you, even a small matter like you reading the files in the archives building may be magnified infinitely."

Qiufenglai didn't know that Tang Mubai had already told Qin Mu many things. If he wanted to blame, the source of everything actually lies with He Longxing, the former 100 households.

As for Qi Shayu, she had a nonchalant personality. While He Longxing had doubts about Qin Mu, he notified her and brought Qin Mu under her command.

In the eyes of Qi Shayu at that time, Qin Mu was not a subordinate, but a suspect who needed to be monitored.

With her temperament, it was inevitable to bring this matter up.

If Qin Mu really came from wrong ways, he would be imprisoned.

But if Qin Mu had a clean life, Qianhu would be able to clear his name as a suspect.

She considered everything clearly, but ignored Qin Mu's feelings. This resulted in the two having no further contact with each other.

Qin Mu already knew the ins and outs of these things. He understood Qi Shayu, but he would not ease his relationship with her because of this. But at the same time, he would not let other people's instigation easily change his mind.

While his thoughts were complicated, he nodded calmly and said, "I understand. Thank you, Brother Qiu, for reminding me."

After finishing his words, he didn't wait for Qiu Feng to say anything else. He turned to look at Qi Shayu, who was staring at Qiu Feng with a cold face, and asked calmly: "Deputy City Lord Qi, should we leave directly? Or do we need to go through any more procedures?"

Qi Shayu shook his head slightly and said: "You have only been in the Demon Suppression Division for two or three months. The things you have come into contact with are all secrets that are not secrets on the surface. There are no secrets in the archives building. They are all information. Integration, there is no process to go through, if you are ready, you can leave with me now. "

Qin Mu nodded lightly, clasped his fists towards Qiu Feng and said, "In that case, Qin Mu will leave. Thank you, Brother Qiu, for taking care of me these days."

Qiu Fenglai was sensitive. Even though there was nothing wrong with Qin Mu's attitude and tone, he still noticed Qin Mu's coldness towards him.

He naturally knew that this was the consequence of what he had just said.

But Qin Mu was about to leave the Demon Suppression Division and could no longer be used by him. Even taking care of Qin Mu's emotions would not bring him any benefit.

It would be better to take advantage of the two parties involved to take revenge on Qi Shayu in person for causing him to lose face.

As for Qin Mu, let him be cold. Anyway, his goal has been achieved. Qi Shayu was disgusted by just a few words.

While Qiu Fenglai was thinking about this, his attitude became indifferent, and he just nodded expressionlessly to Qin Mu's words.

In his response, Qin Mu glanced at this place with emotion, shook his head and walked towards the stairs.

Before Qi Shayu left, he stared at Qiufeng again coldly.

She is not the kind of person who likes to say harsh words, but today this incident was remembered in her heart.

As Qi Shayu left without saying a word, Qiu Fenglai sneered, then walked to the window with his hands behind his back, looking down at the square downstairs and the flags who were whispering to each other in the corridor outside the door of the Assembly Hall. host.

"Emperor Yu has passed away. King Song will also attend the Land and Sea Conference in the East China Sea in a few days. When he leaves, even if there are some guards in the city, they will not be able to stop me!"

"Let you, the rip-offs, survive for a few more days!"

When he thought of this, the figures of Qin Mu and Qi Shayu also appeared in his eyes.

After seeing Qi Shayu's back, he couldn't help but sneered.

"After some time, I want to see if you can still remain cool..."

……

When Qin Mu and Qi Shayu left the Demon Suppression Division, their former colleagues did not come up to talk to them even if they saw them. They just nodded lightly to them when their eyes met, which was regarded as farewell.

After seeing their cold attitude, Qin Mu suddenly understood the four words "when people leave, tea will cool down", and at the same time, he also missed the late Captain Wang.

If that bearded man was still alive, he would definitely be walking beside him at this time, laughing and patting his shoulder, and would arrange a banquet to see him off until he got drunk.

In the silent eyes of everyone, he and Qi Shayu walked out of the Demon Suppression Department without saying a word.

Qin Mu found that after not coming out for more than ten days, Guanhai City, which had just become lively, became deserted again. There were only a few scattered hawkers on the street, and there were wine shops, teahouses, inns, grain shops, rouge shops, and cloth shops on the roadside. The store door was closed tightly, and boards were erected to seal the outside of the store.

Qi Shayu, who was walking side by side with him but separated by an arm's length, seemed to be staring straight ahead, but he was secretly looking at Qin Mu because of guilt in his heart.

After seeing the surprise in his eyes, he thought that he could not remain silent all the way, so he suddenly said: "These merchants in the city were all moved from the imperial city or other places under your majesty's order. In the past, your majesty was still there. When the time came, they did not dare to make any mistakes, and Guanhai City became lively. "

"It's so cool... His Majesty just came to heaven, and they rushed into the city lord's palace to ask for an explanation from the prince."

"Your Majesty and Your Majesty are brothers and sisters. This is the time of sorrow, but they rushed in without knowing the current situation, so they were swept out by the Prince with a wave of his sleeves."

Speaking of this, her tone was full of sarcasm.

"So it became what you saw. They didn't dare to resist openly, but they closed shops and inns to protest."

Qin Mu suddenly felt enlightened.

After Qi Shayu finished speaking, he walked a certain distance in silence, and finally stopped, turned to face Qin Mu, and said seriously: "As for the content of Qiu Fenglai's paragraph, I I’m sorry, although the total number of times we have spoken cannot be counted in the palm of a hand, and we may not have the chance to meet again, but we will get to know each other after all.”

"If we don't say anything now, we probably won't have another chance."

"I also know that just saying sorry can't erase what happened. From now on... no matter whether you will stay in Guanhai City or not, if you are of any use to me, please speak up and I will do my best to I’ll try my best to help you.”

As she spoke, she took out a transmission talisman from the storage bag on her waist and placed it in Qin Mu's hand with a serious expression.

Qin Mu looked at the transmission talisman in his hand, then looked at her with a serious face, and said with a smile: "Tang Mu Bai Qianhu has explained to me all the ins and outs of that matter. I understand your behavior at that time. If it were my subordinate There is such a suspect, and I might make the same choice as you."

After Qi Shayu heard this, he had no reaction and still looked at him seriously.

Qin Mu finally retreated under her unblinking gaze, smiled helplessly, put the transmission talisman into his arms in front of her, and said in a serious tone: "I will do it."

Qi Shayu then looked away from his face, turned around and continued walking. At the same time, he changed the topic and said, "Don't believe or care about Qiu Fenglai's evaluation of King Song."

"After all...he only met King Song once, and all his comments are hearsay, but I am in the city lord's mansion day and night."

"It's a grave sin to evaluate your boss in private. I can't explain it to you, but just relax."

Qin Mu nodded lightly.

Along the way, the two never talked again, but the sense of isolation and depression that had previously enveloped them dissipated unknowingly.

Two quarters of an hour later, the two of them finally arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

Qi Shayu took Qin Mu to the moon gate in the back garden, told him to relax and behave naturally, then turned and left to continue his work.

Qin Mu looked at the Moon Gate a few steps away, thinking that he was about to face the most powerful prince in the Dayu Dynasty. Even though Qi Shayu asked him to relax, he still subconsciously took a deep breath.

Finally, he walked over with a calm expression.
