The night was dark, and Yuning Town, which was full of bustle at dusk, was already silent by this late night.
After entering the Immortal Path, although the energy is much higher than that of ordinary people, under this life of working at sunrise and resting at sundown, the life order of the small town is no different from the secular world.
At night, either resting or taking advantage of free time to practice, this is the normal situation in Yuning Town.
Along the way, I met very few immortal cultivators.
Outside the town, the mountains stretch, the breeze blows, and it becomes even more lonely.
Chu Mu didn't walk very fast, and the glances he glanced around from time to time also proved his vigilance.
The place where we agreed to meet was not far from the town, on a mountain peak on the edge of Yuhuanggufang City.
If there is any movement, the distance to the city is so quiet, the possibility of attracting the law enforcement team is obviously very high.
It can be regarded as an insurance provided by Chu Mu to himself and to give peace of mind to the Niu family brothers.
At the top of the mountain, two figures can be seen standing at the edge of the boulder.
"It's you?"
"you are not……"
Seeing Chu Mu appear, a slightly surprised voice sounded.
"Jade slips."
Chu Mu nodded, spoke briefly, raised his hand and took out a pack of spiritual stones.
Seeing this, the Niu family brothers looked at each other, and then the Niu family boss stepped forward and handed over the jade slip.
The spirit stone bags and jade slips passed by each other, and the boss of the Niu family immediately took a few steps back without leaving a trace.
Obviously, not only Chu Mu was vigilant, but the Niu family brothers were also extremely vigilant.
Holding the jade slip in his hand, Chu Mu did not check the contents of the jade slip on the spot. He just glanced at the surface of the jade slip and focused his eyes on the Niu family brothers in front of him.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, we two brothers promise not to reveal that you purchased the Manniu Jue."
Seeing Chu Mu's view, the boss of the Niu family immediately assured him.
"OK."
Chu Mu nodded and did not ask for more guarantees or restrictions.
Immediately, the boss of the Niu family added: "But you must also promise not to leak the skills privately!"
"good."
Chu Mu responded, it was no different from knowledge trading on the black market, except this time, both parties made an oath of Taoism.
Considering the cultivation level of the Niu family brothers, this heart oath is still very binding in Chu Mu's opinion.
The so-called Tao Heart Oath is to make an oath based on the cultivator's heart of seeking Tao, forming a kind of restraint that directly faces one's own heart.
Violating it is tantamount to disobeying oneself and denying oneself.
For a cultivator of immortality, disobeying and denying oneself basically means severing the path to immortality.
It’s not that the deadline is approaching, or that the path to immortality is hopeless, the oath of the Tao Heart is still very binding.
After making the oath, the Niu brothers jumped down from the top of the mountain and disappeared from Chu Mu's sight without stopping.
Walking to the edge of the top of the mountain, Chu Mu looked down and saw hundreds of meters of straight cliffs with only a few footholds.
With his current physical condition, if he fell, he would either die or be seriously injured!
And his Qi training skills obviously couldn't support the landing of hundreds of meters.
But...he has kamikaze boots.
It is not difficult to use the wind to glide for a short time.
For a moment, Chu Mu jumped down and fell almost straight. When he was less than a hundred meters away from the ground, his mind moved slightly. The spiritual power of the divine wind boots on his feet flickered, and a faint resistance lingered on his feet. between feet.
In an instant, the original rapid fall seemed to open an invisible parachute. It moved with Chu Mu's thoughts and finally landed steadily on the treetops.
Chu Mu jumped up again, and with a brief glide, he covered hundreds of meters in one step, jumping between treetops, as if chasing the crescent moon obscured by dark clouds.
The wantonness under the night sky had consumed all the spiritual power stored in the Kamikaze boots itself, and only then could Chu Mu stop being so playfully wanton.
He took out a lower spirit, and with a slight movement of his mind, surging spiritual energy poured into the dimly patterned kamikaze boots.
Chu Mu looked at the sky, and while his heart felt happy, he couldn't help but think of the flying magic weapons he saw in Weiwu Pavilion that day.
This was naturally the reason why he chose these kamikaze boots instead of other flying instruments.
The most important reason is that the flying magic weapon is really a bit flashy to him at the moment.
After all, a pure flying magic weapon can basically only be used for traveling, and it is also extremely conspicuous when flying in the sky.
When it comes to actual fighting, unless it is an attacking magic weapon with flying functions, such as flying swords, flying knives, etc., or special flying magic weapons, such as wings, flywheels, etc.
Otherwise, an ordinary flying magic weapon would be a living target.
And his favorite Minghong Sword also has a flying function, that is, flying swords.
But the reason is very simple. A magic weapon has a limit to the number of prohibition patterns that can be engraved on it. If aircraft patterns or prohibitions are added, it means that other aspects of effectiveness will inevitably be sacrificed.
For him, it was obviously not worthwhile. After all, flying was a necessity, not a necessity.
But no matter what, flying is still one of mankind's biggest fantasies.
That small flying magic weapon, that huge immortal airship...
Chu Mu was thinking a lot.
After the divine wind boots were completed, Chu Mu slowly walked towards Yuning Town.
Just as it was silent when I left town, it was equally silent when I came back.
The Niu brothers' house was still dark with no light. Chu Mu stopped and took a look before opening the door and walking into the room.
The house is still there, everything is like new, there is no trace of it.
Chu Mu was sitting on the bedside, seemingly asleep but not asleep, but he was also thinking about his next path of practice.
The news is getting serious, so he should stop selling elixirs for the time being. With his current wealth, it is enough to stay dormant for a while.
And during this period of hibernation...
Plans emerged in his mind one after another. Finally, Chu Mu raised his hand to explore his arms, and three jade slips appeared in his hands.
One came from Wang Mazi, and if the information about the black market and Wang Mazi's connections was true, it would obviously be of great use to him now.
As for the other two...
Chu Mu stared at the jade slip in his hand.
The same texture, the same lines. If it hadn't been for that mysterious fog experience in East Lake, he would never have noticed the difference in the jade slips.
After all, habitual cognition and common sense are enough to cover up a lot of things.
Jade slips, shouldn’t they be used to record information and knowledge?
Who would have thought that this jade slip that records knowledge and information could have other uses!
His spiritual consciousness penetrated, and the information about the Manniu Jue flooded into his mind. Chu Mu did not check and think too much, and his eyes were still on the two jade slips.
The moment he held it in his hand, he could be completely sure that his guess was correct and could not be wrong.
This jade slip is definitely from the same source as the jade slip that records the inheritance of puppetry.
There is definitely some connection with the space hidden under the mysterious fog of East Lake.
Recalling the experience of that day, the scenes are still extremely clear, especially the wave of scanning, which is almost unforgettable.
In the recent Changsheng Clan newspaper, you can still see the description of the mysterious fog in East Lake, which is also called mysterious. Obviously, the real mystery has not yet appeared in the world.
Maybe one day he can touch that mysterious veil.
Chu Mu played with the two jade slips, and guesses about the mysterious scanning wave came to his mind one by one.
For a moment, there seemed to be a vague guess, and the jade slip he was playing with stopped. After putting it aside, his spiritual consciousness penetrated the jade slip given by Wang Mazi, and a surge of information poured into his mind.
Chu Mu closed his eyes slightly and slowly sorted through the information.
The information was far greater than he imagined.
How much experience, knowledge, and connections does a low-level immortal cultivator accumulate after spending decades in one place?
Even if it is only a part of it, it is definitely a huge amount of information.
A jade slip, it was not until noon the next day that he was able to sort out the information in it.
A lot of the information confirmed his guesses, such as the black market. According to Wang Mazi, basically every black market is the white gloves of some local big shots.
Unless things change like the Jade Emperor Valley, the black market and the local ruling forces generally maintain a tacit understanding of not violating the rules of the river.
Just like the several black markets near the Jade Emperor Valley today, behind them are several disciples of the Jindan Master of the Jade Emperor Valley.
The ultimate flow of benefits will obviously be to the superior Jin Dan Zhenren.
Under such a black-and-white rule, the Jade Emperor Valley's law enforcement team and members of the Changsheng Sect will obviously maintain a tacit understanding with the black market.
It is also obvious that any disturbance in the so-called black market is also under the control of the Changsheng Sect.
Judging from the information recorded by Wang Mazi, in addition to the black market, there is also a more hidden private exchange meeting, similar to the exchange meeting he just attended.
It's just that the level is obviously higher, its channels are more hidden, the location and time are more random, and of course, it will be more insecure.
As for the others, there were some dark orders in several nearby black markets, some local snake gangs, and some hidden road records, all waiting for him to personally confirm.
After flipping through this information and thinking back to the black market in Fengming Mountain, he couldn't help but admire himself a little.
Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. At that time, he was really lucky to be able to walk out of the black market in Fengming Mountain alive.
Fortunately, things are not what they used to be after all.
Nowadays, he has some ability to protect himself even if he goes to the black market.
Chu Mu glanced at the jade slip of puppetry inheritance placed on the bedside, and his eyes moved slightly.
Now, he also has the capital to uncover the mystery of puppetry.
I only hope that the next trip to the black market will bring him a successful harvest.
While his thoughts were flowing, Chu Mu put away a few jade slips and closed his eyes slightly again. This time, his focus was on the body-training technique.
The origin is extremely mysterious, but the name is extremely common.
Man Niu Jue...
Is it really ordinary?
With such doubts, the knowledge of the exercises hidden deep in his mind was slowly recalled and sorted out...
