Ink Counting and Line Following

Early in the morning, Li Banfeng took the projector and prepared to go out.

The projector sat by the bed, dejectedly saying, "Seventh Director, choose someone else. The art in my heart has withered away."

In the battle against the Mountain Pulling Master, the projector played a crucial role among the magical artifacts.

Li Banfeng used a projector to change the layout of the cave, allowing a group of Strange Monsters to mistakenly enter his Portable Abode, resulting in a feast for the whole family.

But the projector missed this feast.

Li Banfeng forgot about him.

The projector stayed in the cave the whole time, without getting a single piece of meat.

When they returned to Portable Abode, Red Lotus had already cleaned up the place, and not a single drop of blood remained.

From then on, the projector became very negative.

After Li Banfeng left, the projector remained by the bedside, silently staring blankly.

Gloves walked over and comforted him, "Brother, don't keep looking like that. It makes me feel bad for you. Let's find a place to talk."

The projector's tone was flat and monotone. "My art has turned to ashes; I have nothing to say to you."

"Look at you, where is your manly spirit? Come with me, let's talk things out and you'll feel better."

After much persuasion, they finally managed to get the projector to move to the third room.

He closed the door and whispered, "Brother, don't say I didn't take care of you."

After saying that, the glove spat out a piece of flesh and blood. "This is the flesh and blood of the Local Earth God, the Mountain Pulling Master. Take a bite and see what it looks like and tastes like."

The projector trembled, and a layer of condensation appeared on the lens. "Brother Tao, how can I thank you...?"

"Stop talking about that, let's eat!" the glove said generously.

The projector summoned a woman who placed flesh and blood into the film chamber.

So many days have passed, yet this piece of flesh remains fresh; I wonder what method the glove used to preserve it.

The flesh and blood of the Local Earth God were indeed of a different quality. The projector had less than half its spring left, but now it felt full of energy and its cultivation was rapidly improving.

"Brother Tao, thank you very much."

"You're being too polite," the glove said, shaking its finger. "We work ourselves to the bone, and life isn't easy for any of us. Sometimes the head of the household can't take care of everything, so we have to look after each other."

"Brother Tao, this piece of meat is so precious, how can I possibly repay you?"

"It's not about repaying you, but I have a few heartfelt words I'd like to say to you."

We live under the same roof, all working for the head of the household. I'm not a greedy person; I give what's due to the head of the household, and occasionally keeping a little for myself is only human nature.

Sometimes I hide things, and you shouldn't always record it. It annoys the boss, and I don't know how to explain it to him. These are things the boss shouldn't know.

Li Banfeng found Qin Xiaopang at Dongping Teahouse and asked him about Ling Family Film Industry.

Qin Xiaopang said, "Ling Family Film Industry is indeed not closed. Our Silver Seal had people investigate this matter. In addition to 'Blood Blade Detective,' they have two other movies in production, and everyone is very busy."

"Ling Miaoying is dead, so who's in charge of the Ling Family Film Industry now?"

"As far as I know, there are two reports, and it's hard to say which one is true."

First, Ling Miaoying is still alive; she only faked her death and put on a show with Lu Chunying.

This news was clearly released by Lu Maoxian, which not only proved the legitimacy of his actions against "Blood Blade Detective" but also smeared Lu Chunying's reputation.

"Secondly, there is another powerful figure behind the Ling family, possibly the actress Tu Yinghong."

"Tu Yinghong..." Upon hearing this name, Li Banfeng recalled the experience of being ambushed that day.

He first used Ride a Horse and Admire Flowers to knock down Ling Miaoying, and then shot Tu Yinghong, wounding her. Without his Portable Abode, he relied entirely on his own initiative to take the initiative and save his life.

Is it possible that the man in black who went to Carefree Dock was still Tu Yinghong?

Do you know Tu Yinghong's background?

Qin Xiaopang said, "We at Silver Seal are still investigating. They said before that Tu Yinghong originally worked as a shady clerk in Green Water City, but after she pleased Ling Miaoying, she became a movie queen."

Now that we've found out, that claim is pure nonsense. Tu Yinghong wasn't originally from Green Water City; she came from Black Stone Slope and was a construction worker. It's still unclear who served whom between her and Ling Miaoying.

"Brother, we need to get to the bottom of this as soon as possible."

"Seventh Brother, as soon as I get any news, I'll..." Little Fatty said, a little breathless, because he was hungry again.

Li Banfeng looked at Xiao Pang's physique and thought it was almost as big as Qiu Zhiheng's.

"Didn't I tell you? If you don't have money, ask me. Don't be stingy with your food. Last time I asked you to inquire about qualifications, what did your Silver Seal say?"

"Seventh Brother, our Silver Seal is really an honest man. He said that since I am Empty Code Copper Seal, it is reasonable for me to be converted into an official copper seal, but he has to spend money to help me with the bribes. The amount is not small, and I was too embarrassed to tell you."

Li Banfeng put down his teacup and said, "Aren't you making things difficult? How much exactly?"

Little Fatty held up one finger. "One thousand silver dollars."

"I've made the payment. I'll go to Carefree Dock this afternoon to withdraw 1,500 yuan and choose a good location."

Qin Xiaopang thanked him profusely, and Li Banfeng returned to Carefree Dock.

Qiu Zhiheng once said that the person who launched the sneak attack was a high-level engineer with a device for invisibility.

Three Heroes Gate investigated Tu Yinghong's background and found that she was indeed a worker.

Along the way, Li Banfeng was basically able to conclude that the man in black that day was Tu Yinghong.

Was she here to avenge Ling Miaoying?

We can't wait for her to come to us; we have to find a way to lure her out.

Li Banfeng entered Portable Abode and used a projector to show Ling Miaoying's image.

Huff!

The record player asked, "My lord, this person has already been turned into a pill, why bring him out again?"

"I'm using her as bait. His lover came looking for me to seek revenge, and I want to lure her out."

"This shadow puppet is so True Person, it's really hard to tell the difference. But since it's the original owner's lover, he must be quite familiar with this Shadow Play Machine, right?"

Li Banfeng looked at the projector.

The projector's mood improved, and it replied solemnly, "I do know a bit about Ms. Tu Yinghong. I've filmed her from all angles, from top to bottom, front to back, in all situations. It's a pity I didn't bring those film reels with me."

Li Banfeng was also worried about this matter. Tu Yinghong was very familiar with projectors and was unlikely to be fooled.

The record player has a strategy for dealing with this situation. "Hey sir, you don't have to use bait to fish, you can also use it to fish for shrimp."

Li Banfeng understood his Wife's meaning. Ling Miaoying's image could also lure others, but now the one to deal with was Tu Yinghong.

"My Wife, I don't want to fish for shrimp, I just want to fish."

"When a shrimp eats fish bait, it will tell the fish about the taste. Fish bait may not be able to fool the enemy's general, but it may be able to fool the enemy's spies."

Li Banfeng laughed, hugging the record player affectionately, and said, "My Wife really knows how to fight!"

Lu Maoxian came out of Bright Pearl Study, and the academy's teacher praised him repeatedly, "Master, you are very knowledgeable. I have learned a lot from you."

In other words, Lu Maoxian demonstrated a new unique skill last night.

Lu Maoxian nodded and smiled, "You are also a studious person. You study by candlelight all night long, and I have never seen you complain about being tired."

The scholar said shyly, "I did call out, but I didn't find it painful."

Lu Maoxian touched the scholar's face. "You are good in every way, but when you read by candlelight at night, you need a good candle. The candle here is not of good quality."

Mr. Shuyu quickly wrote down the matter of the candle. Lu Maoxian the most important regular customer of Bright Pearl Study, and every request he made could not be ignored.

Outside the bookstore, thirty-three servants awaited.

Is it appropriate for Lu Maoxian and bring so many people with him?

In the past, Lu Maoxian have carried at most two spare parts; he didn't want to make such a big fuss.

But after his encounter with Ling Miaoying, Lu Maoxian open-minded.

At the theater, Ling Miaoying showed that movie, which ruined Lu Maoxian's reputation, but so what? The whole Lu Family still said that the old master was still vigorous despite his age.

The hand that Ling Miaoying cut off still hasn't been properly treated, and that's what's truly bothering him.

The matter concerning the film industry has not yet subsided, so it is crucial to remain vigilant.

Lu Maoxian rode in a rickshaw, with attendants looking after him from all sides.

It was late at night, and there were no other pedestrians on the street. There was still a street to go before the mansion. Suddenly, a servant clutched his neck and collapsed to the ground, blood flowing out from between his fingers.

Another officer stepped forward to check, and as soon as he squatted down, the head fell to the ground.

Lu Maoxian, his spirits low, cried out, "A gentleman is open and honest!"

He wanted to draw out his opponent, Shared Script, Shared Rules Technique, so that they could have a fair and square fight.

But the technique seemed ineffective. One after another, the supports around Lu Maoxian fell to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, only two of the thirty-three men remained.

The two men stood on either side of the rickshaw, seemingly protecting Lu Maoxian, but in reality, they were protecting their own lives.

These two brothers understood perfectly that they wouldn't die if they didn't move, but they would definitely die if they moved even slightly.

Lu Mao first took out his writing brush and wrote the word "forbidden" on the foreign car!

A barrier was formed around the rickshaw.

Lu Maoxian was pondering his next move, he suddenly heard someone whisper in his ear, "Nothing is off-limits."

Bang!

The barrier is shattered!

Was the other person using the A Word Becomes Reality?

Is the other person Wen Xiu?

Regardless of what sect the other party belongs to, there are few chances of escaping now.

Lu Maoxian flicked his brush, splashing ink from the tip. Countless characters appeared within a radius of more than ten meters around him. The characters were menacing and fierce, like dark Evil Spirit that would attack anyone they encountered.

Scholar Cultivation Technique and Ink Counting and Line Following.

Wenxiu is not good at close combat. Once he is in close combat, the "Ink Counting and Line Following" technique is the best way to escape.

Within the limits of technique, the characters formed by ink strokes possess a spirit and struggle with people.

These characters can express both meaning and form, making them incredibly powerful. Their only drawback is that they cannot distinguish between friend and foe.

With the word "big", he stretched out his arms, grabbed a supporter, and kept tearing.

The word "elephant" turned into a tusked elephant and knocked over another supporter.

One character for "insect" transforms into three characters for "insect," and each "insect" character transforms into a swarm of flies fluttering about.

These words even attacked Lu Maoxian, but Lu Maoxian was able to find a way out between the lines.

He quickly broke free from the range of the technique and ran wildly towards the mansion.

They ran incredibly fast, much faster than usual.

The skill of Ink Counting and Line Following only lasted for a few seconds before dissipating, but Lu Maoxian had already run to the gate of the mansion.

How can you run so fast?

It seems to have fewer burdens than usual.

Lu Maoxian looked down and realized that something was indeed missing.

Blood seeped from his trousers, and Lu Maoxian collapsed at the doorway. Only then did he feel a deep sense of despair and pain.

He was old but vigorous, and that is no more.

He Jiaqing, disguised as a middle-aged man, walked up to Lu Maoxian and said with a smile, "Old Master Lu, congratulations! You'll be rid of that troublesome thing from now on."

Lu Maoxian dared not resist, clutching his vitals and gritting his teeth in silence.

He Jiaqing didn't kill him. He got up and left alone. When he reached the street corner, he suddenly saw a beggar dozing off.

He Jiaqing felt a chill run down his spine and carefully sensed his location.

Is this Green Water City, or Green Flower's residence?

The beggar opened one eye, glanced at He Jiaqing, and then closed his eye again.

What do you mean? You don't want to fight me?

Is Green Water Beggar trying to make amends?

Newspapers reported that Lu Maoxian been attacked again and was seriously injured, with the identity of the assailant remaining a mystery.

He Jiaqing put down the newspaper and said to Lao Wan, "You are the most reliable person. Remember, before you find out the truth, you must not kill Lu Maoxian."

Wan Jinxian nodded repeatedly.

That day, He Jiaqing visited various cinemas. The occupancy rate of "Blood Blade Detective" was good, with most cinemas operating at around 70% capacity. He Jiaqing was very satisfied with this result.

During a break in the movie, he quietly entered the projection room. The workers who were showing the movie were chatting and didn't notice He Jiaqing at all.

He Jiaqing tore a frame of film off the projector and took it to the private box in the cinema.

He took out a dropper from his pocket and put a drop of medicine on the film.

A silver ring appeared on the film.

He Jiaqing placed the ring on the top of his head, his body trembling for a moment.

"Not bad quality!" He Jiaqing exclaimed, then rubbed his fingers together to create a flame and burned the film.

The next day at noon, He Jiaqing set off back to Yuezhou, and Wan Jinxian saw him off at the station.

Before leaving, He Jiaqing repeatedly instructed, "Keep an eye on Tu Yinghong and don't let her leave the building."

After returning from the station, Wan Jinxian went into Tu Yinghong's room.

Tu Yinghong was organizing her weapons when she said to Wan Jinxian, "Didn't you know to knock before you came in?"

Wan Jinxian said, "My men saw Ling Miaoying."

"Where?"

"I saw him in Carefree Dock yesterday, and I saw him again today. Do you want to go see him?"
