It's late at night.
A truck, escorted by nearly a hundred patrol inspectors, slowly drove out of the inspection station.
Chu Mu remembered that it was this cart that pulled the old man's body from the mountain village to the dungeon.
And now, it is this cart that pulls the old man's body out of the dungeon after being broken into pieces and then sewn into shape.
Next, his body will be hung on the archway at the north exit of the town.
Exposing the body to the public... in order to... lure the snake out of its hole.
I have to say that the skills in this seemingly insignificant work are still very good.
Pontu's body, which had been dissected and dissected into pieces, was stitched together and put on a shroud, but no big difference could be seen.
Only vaguely, the hideous traces of needlework came into view, giving people an indescribable feeling of horror.
"Hang it up."
At the north exit of the town, following Wu Shuo's arrangements, this already terrifying looking corpse was hung under the tall archway.
At night, with firelight flickering in the sky, a hideous corpse was hanging in the air, swaying in the wind. Fortunately, those who were present at the inspection had experienced this scene personally. Otherwise, an uninformed person would probably be frightened half to death.
"Brother Mu, is there really a ghost?"
Until now, Xu Yuan had obviously not recovered from the news of the resentful soul, and he looked at Chu Mu and asked.
"Don't think too much!"
Chu Mu took out the book of body training techniques from his arms and put it into Xu Yuan's hand: "If you have nothing to do, just think about it yourself. If you don't understand, come and ask me again."
Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment. After seeing the three words "Body Training Technique", he declined again and again:
"Brother Mu, this is not okay, this is the corps commander..."
"I told the corps leader, don't worry."
Chu Mu waved his hand and looked around cautiously, obviously not wanting to say anything more.
As for whether Xu Yuan could understand or not, Chu Mu was not worried. Before his father died, his family environment was far more worrying than his.
Xu Yuan was a kid who was forced by his father to attend a private school for several years. Literacy was not a problem.
Seeing Chu Mu's vigilant look as he looked around, Xu Yuan opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything more. He held the book of body training techniques tightly, and his brows seemed to be a little more determined.
Chu Mu's attention at this moment was obviously not on Xu Yuan at all, but on the surrounding environment.
If the resentful soul hadn't appeared, he wouldn't have been so careful, but now, a higher-level mystery seemed to be unveiled in front of him.
His rudimentary swordsmanship, his newly acquired qi and blood, and his seemingly extraordinary self-protection ability against ordinary people, seemed to be somewhat insignificant in the face of the higher level of mystery.
And now, strictly speaking, he is also one of the participants in the body exposure...
In a confrontation that is beyond his capabilities, if he is not careful, he will be cannon fodder.
Everything could not help Chu Mu not being vigilant.
But inexplicably, Chu Mu was looking forward to it, expecting the young man to seek revenge.
Even if he knew it, even if this expectation was fulfilled, it would not mean much to him.
But people's hearts... always have a bit of luck.
Looking forward to... luck, but also worried... even afraid...
Time... was slowly passing by under Chu Mu's complicated state of mind.
The night gets darker and darker, until the night dissipates and the rooster crows at dawn, the body is still hanging high, swaying in the wind, without any abnormality.
With the incident at Fengyue Tower, the center of gravity of Nanshan Town and even Qinghe County has obviously shifted according to Li Jinghong's will.
Under this archway, there were nearly a hundred patrol guards, both light and covert. In the early morning, under the mobilization of Li Jinghong, nearly two hundred patrol battalions from the county patrol camp also rushed to Nanshan Town overnight.
Immediately, nearly a hundred patrols were mobilized from the mine to the north of the town to replace Chu Mu and his team who had been suffering all night.
It wasn't until the morning sun rose that Chu Mu returned home.
After a night of nerve-wracking suffering, Chu Mu was undoubtedly extremely exhausted.
But compared to the fatigue, the sense of urgency brought by the worry in my heart is obviously far greater than the physical and mental fatigue.
Just after returning home, Chu Mu carefully checked the rooms in his house, and without any delay, he boiled the medicinal materials to assist Qi and blood cultivation. As for the negative effects of overuse of medicinal materials...
The current situation, the mysterious and extraordinary impact, and the negative effects of mere poisons were undoubtedly insignificant to Chu Mu.
The liquid medicine surged with the fire. After adding firewood, Chu Mu made some simple food and ate it before returning to the courtyard.
After practicing a few rounds of sword skills to stretch his stiff body, Chu Mu devoted himself wholeheartedly to the practice of qi and blood.
After assuming the posture of Zhuang Gong, with a calm mind, the perception of Qi and blood instantly flooded into my mind. With a slight movement of my mind, Qi and blood began to flow.
Compared with the auxiliary practice of medicine, there is obviously a huge gap between the two to simply refine one's own Qi.
The wisps of Qi transformed from the food are actually insignificant compared to the medicinal power pouring in like a tide.
But there is no doubt that compared to refining the surging medicinal power, it is undoubtedly much simpler to absorb and accommodate the qi transformed by the body's instinct under the same origin, and there are no restrictions or negative effects.
Time passed little by little, and after about a quarter of an hour, Chu Mu stopped practicing Qi and blood.
Of course, it wasn't that Chu Mu didn't want to practice anymore, but that he couldn't.
After all, the qi refined through qi and blood cultivation is produced by the food eaten.
Its quantity is extremely limited, and the practice of Qi and blood is not simply about strengthening Qi and blood. Its fundamental purpose is to strengthen the internal organs, accumulate essence and spirit.
Therefore, every time you practice Qi and blood, it is a consumption of Qi and blood.
It's just that this kind of consumption does not disappear out of thin air, but is transformed into the body's foundation through the strengthening of the organs and the accumulation of essence and spirit. It is also an indispensable part of the process of the human body gradually becoming inhuman.
But it is obvious that to cultivate Qi and blood, you must ensure adequate food and external assistance from corresponding medicinal materials.
Otherwise, every time you practice qi and blood, you may not be strengthening your organs and foundation, but you will be damaging your organs and foundation, and you will be on the path to death!
"A little proficiency..."
Seeing the increase in proficiency reflected on the light screen panel, Chu Mu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
You know, he is a beginner!
When learning anything, beginners will definitely make the most obvious progress.
As the progress deepens, it is inevitable that the learning progress will slow down or even stagnate.
Calculated at this pace, if there is no medicinal solution to help, and you just rely on yourself to practice, it may be a lifetime of hard work!
Moreover, according to the growth cycle of the human body, it is inevitable to slowly age after reaching the prime of life.
The cultivation of qi and blood focuses on strengthening the body. Once the body begins to age and the essence and spirit weaken, it is easy to know that the progress of the cultivation will be seriously hindered. As you get older, it is probably normal for you not to advance but to retreat.
