Staring at the direction in which those figures disappeared, Chu Mu's expression was obviously more solemn.
That direction seemed to be heading outside the town.
In other words, it must have come out of the town.
If you are from the town and want to leave the town, there is obviously no need to be so sneaky.
In other words, it is very likely that these sneaky people came from outside the town, sneaked into the town, and achieved their goals...
Subconsciously, Chu Mu thought of the remaining "traitors" in Qili Village. That young man left a deep impression on him.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Mu also decisively changed his direction and headed straight towards the inspection station.
When a thief appears, whether it's public or private, he can't pretend not to have seen it.
After going to the inspection station and reporting the news, Chu Mu quickly left the inspection station and headed home.
As for what will happen after the report is reported, it is not something he needs to consider.
He just hoped that no matter what happened, it would wait until he was healed.
For better or worse, he can be a little more confident.
And when Chu Mu returned home to rest, he was outside Nanshan Town, among the mountains on the southwest side.
The figures that ran out of Nanshan Town finally stopped running in front of a cave. They looked around and walked into the cave.
The cave is not big, and the furnishings in the cave are extremely simple. Apart from a few straw mats and a bonfire, there is nothing else.
"Uncle Niu, Sister Ning, Brother Wu!"
As soon as several men in black stepped into the cave, several young children ran towards them.
On one side of the cave, there was a young man with a stern face sitting cross-legged.
If Chu Mu were here, he would definitely recognize that this young man was the young man he had fought with for the first time since he entered the mountain.
If he saw it with his own eyes, Chu Mu would definitely find it incredible.
After all, in that battle, he clearly saw the young man being severely wounded by a knife and being rescued when he was on the verge of death.
But the boy now looked like a normal person, and the severe injuries... seemed to have never existed.
As if he noticed the movement, the young man slowly opened his eyes and looked at the three men in black who walked in.
"Xiao Xiu, how are you? How is your injury?"
"It's okay now."
The young man shook his head: "Sister Ning, have you found out about the situation?"
"It's been checked out."
"Master's body should have been placed in the dungeon of the inspection station by the dog officers."
"But it's heavily guarded inside. There's obviously an ambush, and they want to use the master's body to lure us there."
"With the strength of just a few of us, if we try to get through, I'm afraid there will be no return."
The man in black on the side also said: "Yes, the dog officer is obviously ready and waiting for us to pass..."
After some words, everyone fell silent, obviously helpless in the face of such a difficult situation.
The young man was also silent, but his eyes did not have the helplessness and hatred of others present. Instead, they were like a pool of stagnant water, indifferent and calm.
As the night progressed, the faint sounds of conversation in the cave disappeared, and between the flickering firelight, a long and slanted reflection emerged from the cave.
The young man who was supposed to be resting and sleeping quietly walked out of the cave and stepped into the darkness.
…
The mountains and forests are quiet, but Nanshan Town at night is no longer peaceful as before.
The patrol team that usually disappears at night appears for the first time tonight, patrolling faithfully throughout the town.
At night, the inspection station is even more brightly lit.
One after another, lights and piles of bonfires dispersed all the darkness within the patrol station.
Both in the light and in the dark, there are patrols wearing armor.
The reason for all this is obviously because of Chu Mu's report.
And as the initiator of all this...Chu Mu.
The lights in the courtyard have long been extinguished, and through the grilled windows, under the moonlight, one can clearly see the figure sleeping in his clothes.
Chu Mu slept peacefully.
As usual, Chu Mu didn't wake up from his sleep until dawn.
The changes in the inspection station obviously have nothing to do with Chu Mu, who is still recovering from his injuries.
After a simple breakfast, Chu Mu began to lead a regular life again.
Read, read, read...
This kind of life lasted for more than ten days, until Chu Mu's injury was almost healed and was not broken.
The few men in black that night were really like a flash in the pan, never seen again, let alone making any noise.
It was noon, and after more than half a month of buffering, the sadness that enveloped Nanshan Town was gradually dissipated by time.
Although the street is not as noisy as it once was, it has regained a lot of popularity and prosperity.
The dead have passed away, but the lives of the living still need to continue to be lived.
In the Mingxin Hall, Chu Mu was naked, and the bloody wound on his abdomen turned into a ferocious scar.
"It's almost healed."
Mr. Li nodded: "It won't affect your martial arts practice, as long as you don't do too strenuous activities in a short period of time."
After speaking, Mr. Li pointed to the oil paper packets piled on the counter beside him: "The prescription you want is also ready, a month's supply."
"The price is not expensive, fifty silver."
When he heard the price, the corner of Chu Mu's mouth twitched, but without saying much, he took out a wad of banknotes from his arms and handed it to Mr. Li's hand.
He picked up the pile of medicinal materials and headed directly outside Mingxintang.
The method of practicing the body-building technique is to take it internally and practice it externally.
It also records several prescriptions used to assist cultivation.
Although it is not said that it is necessary to practice the body training technique, it is obvious that practicing with medicine to assist and myrrh to assist practice are bound to be two different concepts.
But the price... fifty silver a month... is undoubtedly extremely high.
With his thoughts flowing, Chu Mu couldn't help feeling a little dizzy as he touched the thin wad of banknotes in his arms.
When he came to this life, he inherited the inheritance left by the original owner's father, which amounted to hundreds of silver. A few days ago, he received a reward of up to two hundred silver for his military achievements, as well as a monthly salary of black gold.
Logically speaking, he should be extremely wealthy.
But this investment is large, and the expenses are obviously higher.
In just one or two months, I studied in private schools, studied in medical clinics, entertained colleagues, needed for martial arts training, and daily necessities...
Each one of them costs tens or even hundreds of silver.
Not to mention anything else, this fifty silver per month of medicinal materials was completely beyond his monthly salary income.
Chu Mu rubbed his forehead, as if he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He used to be an ordinary patrol inspector, guarding the inheritance of hundreds of silver from the original owner's father. He really never worried about money.
Now that he has been promoted to captain, gained martial arts skills, and gained a reputation, he still has to worry about money.
"I have to make money..."
Chu Mu shook his head and walked carelessly on the street.
After his body recovers, he has to perform his duties. After fulfilling his duties, Wu Shuo will definitely take him to things that no one took him to do before.
Like...iron from the black market?
Chu Mu didn't have any psychological burden and was very open-minded.
He must take what is due.
If Wu Shuo takes him to play and he doesn't play with it, then he's asking for trouble.
