Although Liu Hanyan refused verbally, her body was very honest.
Her physical strength and magic power were seriously overdrawn. If she didn't let Li Mu help, she could only crawl back.
Li Mu gave her three choices. She could either hug, piggyback, or crawl back on her own.
After thinking for a while, she still chose to let Li Mu piggyback her.
She lay on Li Mu's back and hooked her arms around his neck. She said suspiciously, "Did you do it on purpose? Just now you kept telling me to practice more …"
Li Mu: "Do you think I want to piggyback you? You're so heavy …"
Liu Hanyan snorted and said, "What do you know? It's not like the lighter a woman is, the better …"
She wasn't wrong. Women weighed less than a hundred, so they were either flat-chested or short. Liu Hanyan's chest was flat, and she wasn't short either. She was hinting to Li Mu that she had a good figure and where her flesh should be.
Li Mu shook his head and said, "How would I know? It's my first time piggybacking a woman."
Liu Hanyan curled her lips. "Isn't it my first time being piggybacked?"
Li Mu piggybacked her and walked straight along the official road. Liu Hanyan rested her head on his back and suddenly asked, "What you said last time, is it true?"
"Which one?"
"You said that in two years, if you and I haven't married, we'll be together …"
Li Mu's footsteps paused, and then he continued forward. "Of course it's true."
Liu Hanyan said, "Didn't you say that I'm not your type?"
"That's because I'm stubborn. Who wouldn't like someone like you?" Li Mu asked as he walked. "So you agree?"
Liu Hanyan's lips curled up. "It depends on your performance in the future."
Li Mu had been waiting for her to say this for a long time. He let out a sigh of relief, and his footsteps became lighter.
Liu Hanyan said again, "However, I have another condition."
Li Mu asked, "What conditions?"
Liu Hanyan said, "Wanwan and I will never be separated for the rest of our lives."
Li Mu asked, "What do you mean?"
Liu Hanyan snorted and said, "Don't play dumb. Don't think that I don't know that you had this idea from the beginning. When you used the barbecue to lure Wanwan, you had this idea in your heart, right?"
Li Mu defended himself, "I can swear to the heavens that at that time, I didn't have any thoughts about you."
Liu Hanyan was jealous. "At that time, you were interested in Constable Li, weren't you?"
Li Mu knew that she was starting to be jealous of Li Qing again. He changed the topic and asked, "When can we start the real Dual Cultivation?"
As expected, Liu Hanyan's attention was diverted by this question. She said softly, "Don't even think about it now. We'll talk about it when you marry me …"
Li Mu actually didn't think about it now. There were too many resources that could be used to cultivate the lower three realms. Soul power, courage, and spirit jades. Even if they didn't cultivate Yin and Yang Dual Cultivation, their cultivation speed wouldn't be too slow.
After reaching the middle three realms, the effect of these resources would be minimal. Only then would the real effect of Dual Cultivation be revealed.
Moreover, the first real Dual Cultivation was very important. It would be a great waste to integrate the Primordial Yang and Primordial Yin that they had accumulated for many years.
Liu Hanyan was exhausted. Lying on Li Mu's back, her heart was very calm, and she soon fell asleep.
She didn't wake up until Li Mu carried her home.
Tonight, she probably didn't have the strength to do Dual Cultivation. Li Mu carried her to the bed in her room. When he walked out of the door, he said to Wanwan, "Wanwan, come with me to my room."
The little maid followed him into the room. She lowered her head and rubbed the corner of her clothes. She asked, "Young Master, wh-what's the matter?"
Li Mu said, "Do you still remember that I told you that your eyes are very rare Spirit Eyes?"
Wanwan nodded and said, "I remember."
Li Mu patted her head and said, "Although Spirit Eyes are rare, they can see things that ordinary people can't, especially some Yin spirits and ghosts. So I sealed your Spirit Eyes. Now that you have Mana, you can control your Spirit Eyes. I will help you remove the seal. In the future, you can cultivate your eyes according to the method I taught you."
Wanwan nodded obediently and said, "I will listen to you, Young Master."
Old Wang once gave Li Mu a book on cultivating Spirit Eyes. He obtained more information from the memories of Monk Qianhuan. He could help Wanwan find a correct path to cultivate Spirit Eyes.
Li Mu formed a seal with his hands and wiped Wanwan's eyes. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes became clearer and brighter. It was like a whirlpool, as if it wanted to suck in Li Mu's entire mind.
Li Mu quickly looked away, and that feeling disappeared.
He was secretly shocked. Wanwan had only cultivated two souls and unconsciously used Spirit Eyes. She could already make his mind tremble. When she learned how to use this talent, it would not be difficult for her to cross realms to control. Soul, body, and Primordial Spirit would be completely restrained by her.
This made Li Mu realize that if he did not work hard, he would not be able to catch up to Liu Hanyan. Perhaps even Wanwan could suppress him.
When this task was completed, he planned to choose a magic treasure for Wanwan. He wanted to be fair, so that they would not think that he was biased.
After Wanwan left, Xiao Bai jumped in through the window and onto the bed. She quietly crawled to Li Mu's side.
These few days, Liu Hanyan stayed at his place. Li Mu did not have time to use the Light of Buddha to remove the demonic aura in her body. The demonic aura in her body became more obvious.
This did not seem to be a long-term solution. Li Mu helped her every night, but he could only help her for a while. It was better to let her cultivate on her own.
Demons were actually similar to humans in their cultivation. They could learn human supernatural powers and Dao techniques. Many demons would also take the path of cultivation of Daoism or Buddhism.
Their bodies were originally strong, so it was more suitable for them to cultivate Buddhist supernatural powers. After using Buddhism to cleanse the demonic aura in their body, not only would their bodies become stronger, but some supernatural powers that targeted demons would also be useless to them.
However, Xiao Bai had not yet transformed, so she could not cultivate human cultivation methods.
Even if Li Mu wanted to teach her, he would have to wait until she transformed.
For Li Mu, the most important thing right now was to investigate "Spring Wind Pavilion".
According to the yamen's information, this pavilion was very likely to be related to Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. To be safe, Li Mu decided to make sufficient preparations before the official investigation.
There was no need to go to the yamen for the time being. After Li Mu woke up, he made breakfast and waited for Liu Hanyan and the others to wake up.
Liu Hanyan had slept with Wanwan last night. When she woke up and saw Li Mu, she asked in surprise, "You don't have to go to the yamen today?"
Li Mu replied, "I don't have to go these days."
Liu Hanyan said, "That's good. After breakfast, let's go take a look at the shops together."
With the help of the Xu family, the branch of Yunyan Pavilion was progressing smoothly. Liu Hanyan bought two shops and recruited enough people. If all went well, the shops could open within a month.
The operation of the music house and opera house was more troublesome than the bookstore and teahouse. Perhaps because she felt that four shops were too exhausting, she only opened the bookstore and teahouse in the county capital. There was no need to recruit musicians and performers, so it was much simpler.
Li Mu also didn't want her to be too tired. The two shops were handed over to the shopkeepers to manage, so she could have more time to cultivate. In the future, it would be good to cook at home and take care of the children.
Li Mu, Wanwan, and Liu Hanyan were walking on the street. When the two girls passed by a jewelry shop, they planned to go in and pick a few pieces. Li Mu stood outside and waited for them.
Opposite the jewelry shop was a brothel. Several women with heavy makeup were trying their best to solicit customers.
"Young Master, come in and take a look …"
"Shopkeeper Wang, a new batch of tea came in yesterday. Don't you want to try it?"
"Young Master Qian, several of our girls miss you …"
… …
Li Mu's eyes swept over the women. He raised his head and saw the plaque "Spring Wind Pavilion" hanging above the brothel.
A golden light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't see anything unusual about Spring Wind Pavilion.
The brothel keeper and prostitutes at the door were all human women. There was no ghostly or demonic aura around Spring Wind Pavilion. Everything was normal. No matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary brothel.
Most of the men coming out of Spring Wind Pavilion had gloomy faces. Their footsteps were weak, and their Yang Qi was lacking. They looked like normal brothel patrons.
Seeing the handsome young man staring at them from the entrance of the jewelry store, a prostitute boldly approached and said with a smile, "Young Master, you've been standing outside for so long. Do you want to go in and have some fun …?"
Li Mu didn't have time to answer before a pain came from his waist.
Liu Hanyan came out of the jewelry shop and held Li Mu's arm. She didn't look at the prostitute and said, "Wanwan, let's go …"
Wanwan glared at the prostitute. She stuck out her small chest and held Li Mu's other arm. With Liu Hanyan on the left and right, she almost carried Li Mu away.
The prostitute shook her head, walked back, and once again tried to win over the passing men.
Liu Hanyan held Li Mu's arm and asked coldly, "What do you think? Are they beautiful?"
Li Mu shook his head and said, "They're dressed like ghosts. They're not beautiful."
Liu Hanyan gritted her teeth and said, "If they're not beautiful, then why did you look for so long?"
Li Mu couldn't refute and could only say, "I was just looking."
"They're not beautiful, but you look at that kind of place. You men are really the same …"
"I won't look next time …"
"Next time?"
"There won't be a next time …"
…
Li Mu walked on the street with one arm held by Liu Hanyan and the other arm held by Wanwan. Along the way, they attracted countless people's attention. Who knew how many people bumped into others because they turned around.
Liu Hanyan seemed to have forgotten to let go. She held Li Mu like this, and Wanwan on the other side didn't let go either.
In the distance, Li Mu saw a familiar figure coming from the front.
Li Si wasn't alone. There was a woman beside him.
The woman was five feet tall and at least three feet wide. She held Li Si with a sweet face.
Standing beside the woman, Li Si, who was six feet tall, looked like a little bird.
Li Si obviously also saw Li Mu. He looked at Liu Hanyan on Li Mu's left, then looked at Wanwan on Li Mu's right, and then looked at his own side. He looked up at the sky and tried hard not to cry …
