The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Pan Yun’s idea was right, and the Mu family finally decided to give it a try.

Mu Ang had given up on his son a long time ago. He tried several times to let him leave peacefully, but Mu Lin could not accept it.

Mu Lin was sent to the capital when he was young, and all his memories of his father came from his childhood and letters.

Seeing his father again after so many years, he naturally couldn't accept that his father left like this.

They even have to do it themselves.

Therefore, he insisted on the treatment, even if it made Mu Xi sleepy and painful, he was unwilling to give up.

Seeing him kneeling in the ancestral hall without moving, Mu Ang couldn't help but sigh and walked up to touch his head: "Now that you have made a decision, don't regret it."

Mu Lin choked up and said, "I don't regret it, I'm just scared."

Mu Ang rubbed his head and said softly, "I know that you agreed to give it a try this time because you believe in Pan Yun's ability, but you must be prepared for failure.

If you lose, don’t blame others.”

He said softly, "It is God's will. Our Mu family's destiny is to protect the southwest and the Ming Dynasty. Your father served the country loyally, so he got what he wanted."

Mu Lin lowered his head, tears falling to the ground one by one, and after a long while he choked up and said, "Yes."

As soon as Mu Ang and his grandson agreed, Pan Jun picked up the two of them and dropped them off in the courtyard.

Mu Lin cried secretly all night and had no idea what was happening outside. He was stunned when he saw the person being thrown to the ground.

Although Mu Ang hadn't slept all night, he knew everything. He just glanced at the two people on the ground, then raised his head and smiled at Pan Yun: "Thank you, Taoist Pan."

Pan Yun nodded: "Okay, okay."

Mu Lin was stunned: "Who are these two people?"

Pan Yun: “It’s the introduction.”

Mu Lin opened his mouth and said quickly: "The monks and wizards who came here before also used blood as a guide, but they were all people in the mansion who let out blood, and each person let out a little. If you use blood, I will find someone here immediately. You, what are you doing..."

Pan Yun: "Don't worry, they are not good people."

Mu Lin: "If they are not good people, you can't use them as bait. It should be handed over to the government to deal with."

Pan Yun patted his shoulder and said, "You are such a law-abiding citizen. I think so too, but they volunteered to be blood guides."

Pan Yun said: "They said they admired Mr. Mu's loyalty to his country, so they were willing to repay him with their lives. I couldn't refuse his kindness, so I agreed."

Mu Lin looked at the two people who were tied up and gagged: "So what is this..."

"Oh, they came to me last night and said they were afraid they would regret it, so they asked me to tie them up and gag them so as not to betray their loyalty. I couldn't resist, so I did it."

The two people on the ground whimpered and shook their heads, looking at Mu Lin with longing eyes, hoping that he could save them.

Mu Lin has a sense of Dharma, but not much, otherwise he would not have covered up for Pan Yun and the others in the mountain temple.

He looked at the two of them, then at Pan Jun, and finally at Mu Ang.

Mu Ang knew much more than his grandson and nodded slightly at him.

Mu Lin then stepped aside and had the two men brought into the house.

When Wang Cong was about to pass by him, he was grabbed by him and asked in a low voice, "Who are these two people?"

Wang Cong lowered his voice and said, "They followed me all the way from the capital and threatened my junior master with Master Pan, saying that they would kill Master Pan if my junior master didn't listen to them."

When Mu Lin heard this, his face darkened, "What did they ask her to do? To harm my father?"

Wang Cong sighed at him, shook his head and said nothing.

Mu Lin had a lot on his mind.

Although the Mu family seemed to be powerful and had a solid position in Yunnan, they were actually always walking on thin ice in the court.

The ancestral motto of the Mu family is to be filial to the Zhu family and loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

The royal family has always shown great trust in the Mu family, but in reality, the Mu family was trembling with fear every time the court changed and every emperor was in power.

When Emperor Taizu Gao was alive, the Mu family could return to their hometown to worship their ancestors at any time. Oh, this hometown refers to Nanjing.

You can also enter and exit Yunnan at any time.

But since Emperor Taizong, the Mu family had to report any entry or exit into Yunnan, which caused suspicion in the royal family. In the meantime, the emperor had sent princes from the royal family to Yunnan in an attempt to completely replace the Mu family's position in Yunnan.

It’s just that the prince who was sent was not powerful enough and could not compete with his second grandfather and grandfather.

When my second grandfather was alive, he was framed for treason. Fortunately, Emperor Taizong was very perceptive and trusted my second grandfather. He only gave him a warning and did not take back his fiefdom and military power.

But my uncle was sent to the capital, saying that he would accompany the prince to study and be educated by the royal family so that he could inherit the title in the future.

Over the years, my uncle has returned to Yunnan only a few times.

Since his grandfather took charge of Yunnan affairs, he was also sent to the capital.

It is said that the educational resources in the palace are better, and studying with the princes can also help cultivate relationships.

But we all know that this is only a small point, and the biggest reason is still to be a proton.

Uncle is a proton, and he is also a proton.

Therefore, the relationship between the Mu family and the royal family and the court has always been close yet somewhat subtle.

There shouldn't be too many officials in the court who want to deprive the Mu family of their military power and fiefdom;
There are many people in the royal family who want to replace the Mu family.

Mu Lin thought that these two people were coming for the Mu Mansion, and for a moment, he looked at them in a strange way.

If this is the case, it cannot be handed over to the government for handling, because there will be no results.

The best outcome would be to find a few people and punish them to vent some anger, but this would only make the hatred between them even greater. It would be meaningless if the mastermind behind the scenes could not be found.

Pan Yun thought so too.

She left the two of them in front of the bed and waved her hand. Tao Yanbai and Miaohe immediately came forward with medicine boxes, opened them, took out many bottles and jars, spread out a pack of needles, and a pack of knives.

When the knife bag was opened, various medical knives were revealed. There were three types of scissors alone, not to mention knives, tweezers and other things. At a glance, there were at least more than twenty kinds.

The cold light was so sharp that it made people shiver.

Pan Yun picked up a knife and slid it back and forth in front of the young man's eyes. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you die easily. Since you don't even want to tell me your own names, then use the secret names I gave you. His name is Blood Bag A, and your name is Blood Bag B."

The young man shook his head repeatedly: "Wuwuwu..."

"I don't understand." Pan Yun stood up and said to Tao Yanbai and Miaohe, "Get ready, peel Mu Xi clean and start."

Zhang Ziming stood aside with his hands folded, wanting to take action as well: "What can we do?"

Pan Yun immediately smiled: "Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Brother Li can do so much, such as protecting the law." She said: "I will lure the insects out in a while. If there are any that escape, please catch them back; if the corpse worms in his body riot, please lend me a hand..."

Li Wenying interrupted her: "What if the king insect resists?"

Pan Yun's eyes were slightly cold: "If you can suppress it, suppress it. If you can't suppress it, this is fate."

Li Wenying: "Are the treatments at Sanqing Mountain so crude?"

Pan Yun: "From Beijing to Yunnan, I have been thinking of countermeasures all the way. I have tried every possible way during this period. If I delay any further, the situation will only get worse."

She said: "His hope was delayed."

If the Mu family had listened to his second senior brother at that time and immediately asked his eldest senior brother for help, the person might have been alive and well long ago.

Pan Yun spread his hands: "Anyway, I can only suppress the Overlord."

Li Wenying frowned and was still hesitating, but Zhang Ziming quickly said, "I'll help you!"

He communicated with Li Wenying: [If he died, he died. The Mu family will not cause us any trouble. If Pan Yunruo can revive people who have been eaten by corpse worms, it means that her merits are effective in restoring human organs. Do you know what this means? ]

Li Wenying knew, of course, that this meant Liu Zhen could be saved, but... [You want to use Mu Xi as an experiment? ]

Zhang Ziming: [Does our interest conflict with Mu Xi's? He was going to receive treatment anyway.]

Li Wenying said nothing more.

Pan Jun looked back and forth at the two silent people, his head almost spinning.

Zhang Ziming came back to his senses and met her gaze, startled: "Why are you looking at me?"

Pan Yun: "I feel like you guys are spreading rumors and saying bad things about me."

"You're wrong. I'm trying to persuade Wenying," Zhang Ziming urged her, "Hurry up. Take advantage of the midday when the Yang energy is high and the corpse worms are suppressed. Any further delay will be disadvantageous to us."

Pan Jun rolled up his sleeves and asked everyone to strip Mu Xi clean.

This time Mu Lin didn't need to do anything, and there was no need to worry about disturbing the insects. She just pulled the person, and Miao Zhen stepped forward and pulled, and Mu Xi's inner clothes were stripped off and thrown aside.

In just a few breaths, Mu Xi was left with only a pair of shorts.

Mu Ang: ...

Looking at the three busy little girls, Mu Ang had a lot to say.

Tao Yanbai climbed into the bed with his needle, and he and Miaohe each occupied one side.

He looked at Pan Yun with a determined look: "Master Junior, we are ready. Once the bugs in his five internal organs riot, we will immediately seal off the heart meridians and save his heart."

Pan Jun nodded: "Very good, let's get started."

Miao He sat next to Mu Xi's head, Pan Yun sat next to his hand, Wang Cong and Miao Zhen stood not far away with knives in their hands, waiting to stab the corpse worms to death as they escaped.

Of course, not all of them were killed. They prepared pots to hold the insects.

There is a magic circle drawn on the basin, which should make the insects dizzy and unable to crawl out.

However, not much research has been done on corpse worms, so we still need to take precautions.

Pan Yun waved her hand, and Wang Cong dragged the blood-covered armor to her side. After pressing his acupoints, he asked him to sit on the edge of the bed, then cut his wrist with a swipe and placed his wrist in a basin of water beside him.

Blood Bag Armor widened his eyes and wanted to move, but he couldn't move.

He watched blood dripping from his wrist that was resting on the basin, his face turning pale.

Blood spread in the water and a bloody smell began to rise.

The corpse worms that had been quiet all this time began to wriggle, and Pan Yun, Tao Yan, and Bai Miaohe all stared at them with wide eyes.

But they move very slowly.

Pan Yun picked up a small knife, carefully observed Mu Xi's blood vessels and meridians, then gently cut his wrist, and then aimed at the blood basin where the smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger.

Blood was oozing from his wrist, and the worms inside were squirming but showing no intention of coming out.

Mu Lin took two steps forward to look, his face pale, "They don't want to come out. The doctors who came to treat them before have used this trick before."

Pan Yun nodded slightly and looked at Tao Yanbai and Miaohe: "You guys start."

Tao Yanbai and Miaohe took out needles and acupunctured Mu Xi.

The movements were arranged in an orderly manner and the timing was very good. The worms that were wriggling in his chest and abdomen gradually calmed down, but the worms in other parts of his body were wriggling faster and faster and began to drill towards his limbs.

However, even though they were already crowded near the wrist wound, they still had no intention of getting out.

Instead, it was squirming anxiously.

Mu Xi frowned in his sleep and began to look painful.

Mu Lin seemed to feel the same way, and was anxiously walking around: "Some doctors have used acupuncture to force the insects out, but they just don't come out. They said that unless you use a knife to force the insects to appear, you can pick them out one by one. But there are too many insects. This is not like a poisonous insect, there may be only one or two. There are too many of them. Picking them all out is tantamount to cutting them into pieces, and you may not be able to pick out the insect with every knife..."

Pan Yun said in a deep voice: "This is because they have the Overlord's command, so they restrained their desire for blood, but..."

Pan Jun raised her hand, and a wisp of golden quicksand wrapped around her fingertips, causing the corpse worms that were forced to their limbs to squirm even more violently.

Pan Yun's lips curled up slightly: "It depends on whether the merits have a stronger attraction to them or the king insect has a stronger control over them."

Pan Yun believes in his own merits, and even more in the pursuit and persistence of all things for merits.

The golden light like quicksand fell into the blood basin, and the bloody smell instantly dissipated for the most part, even emitting a faint fragrance.

No one present, including Mu Ang, could tell what the fragrance was. It was very faint, almost imperceptible, but as soon as they smelled it, they would involuntarily take a few steps forward, wanting to pursue the scent.

Even Zhang Ziming and Li Wenying's eyes were confused for a moment, but because they were mentally prepared and had learned from previous experiences, they immediately lowered their eyes and silently recited the Heart Sutra to resist this temptation.

Hongyan is the most self-aware, so she did not come today. Instead, she turned into a fox and lay in the guest courtyard to bask in the sun, with a golden hairpin beside her.

Pan Yun turned her wrist, and when the merit and blood were completely integrated, she lightly waved her finger, and a stream of blood in the blood basin flew out, flying towards Mu Xi's wrist like a water line.

The water line stopped at the wrist, a ray of golden light flashed in the line, and the corpse worms under the skin became excited as if they smelled something.

With a "puff", a skinny insect poked its head out and looked around warily. Everyone held their breath and waited, but before it could see its surroundings clearly, it was pushed by the insect behind it and its entire body popped out with a "puff".

It seemed to know that it had lost the protection of its outer layer, and instinctively raised its body and bravely pounced towards the blood line, but it did not stand firm and fell into the blood basin with a gurgle.

The essence, blood and merits, the blood basin was simply a paradise for it. The corpse worms popped their heads out and screamed.

The people in the room could only hear the low chirping of insects, but Pan Yun could understand its call.

Pan Jun raised the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, when the insects made the sound, they began to scramble to get out.

Tao Yanbai exclaimed: "Master Junior, the bug in his other hand is about to break out of his body." (End of this chapter)
