The gathering area at the foot of Xiaodong Mountain.
Chen Mu's residence.
In front of the door of the wooden house is a wooden floor half a meter high from the ground and two meters wide.
The eaves above have been extended and stretched out, like the brim of a hat, to serve as the roof of the promenade in front of the house.
At this moment, there is a square table on the corridor.
Two lanterns hung above, and flames flickered in the fire pit not far away. It was bright in front of the Sifang table.
"Leaving on the 21st, make preparations early." Jie Jia slowly put down his chopsticks and said calmly.
Is there half a month left?
There is enough time to prepare supplies.
Chen Mu nodded.
"Do you need me to hire a carriage?"
"No need." Jie Jia shook his head: "I'll prepare."
Chen Mu suddenly looked at him suspiciously: "You won't charge extra carriage fees, right?"
Jie Jia glanced at Chen Mu and nodded calmly.
Chen Mu stared at Jie Jia with a speechless face.
He actually admitted it? !
Are all the tricks so blatant?
Jie Jia calmly took out a piece of white silk cloth and wiped his mouth. Then he threw it into the fire pit not far away.
Chen Mu's mouth twitched.
In order to make money, Jie Jia saves everything. The only thing I never skimp on is personal hygiene.
Chen Mugan guarantees that the piece of white silk cloth will never be used more than twice! It’s even disposable at all!
"It's a long journey, so bring enough dry food." Jie Jia emphasized the word "bring enough".
Chen Mu rolled his eyes: "Including you."
Jie Jia looked matter-of-fact.
Chen Mu discovered that proficiency cheats were not always a good thing.
My cooking skills have really improved, but I can't get rid of this guy who is just trying to make ends meet.
"Don't worry, nothing else, the Bigu Pill is enough!" Chen Mu waved his hand grandly.
Jie Jia looked at Chen Mu expressionlessly.
"Rice balls, rice balls, meat floss rice balls will do!" Chen Mu said angrily.
Isn't it just a name? Do you need to ridicule endlessly? It's so delicious that you're just hungry.
…
The next morning, we had breakfast.
Chen Mu put on Yang Zhi's vest as usual.
Carrying a knee-high bamboo basket, we headed to the Bailang River along the well-traveled road.
Along the way, the market in the gathering area was still lively, and Lao Liutou was shouting Daliwan early in the morning.
Someone actually bought the flour dumplings.
Chen Mu nodded as a greeting and walked through the market street. Follow the workers who are preparing to go up the mountain and leave the gathering area.
"Which unlucky guy was disemboweled by a wolf today?" a worker inquired in a low voice.
"I haven't heard of it." The companion next to him shook his head in confusion: "Are those government officials really going to clean up the wild wolves?"
"Unless the sun comes out from the west!" another companion snorted.
"Keep your voice down and don't cause trouble," someone reminded.
"Don't count on them. Try not to go out at night. Just be careful."
All the workers couldn't help but nod.
Chen Mu silently collected gossip in the gathering area.
But he didn't hear the news he wanted to hear.
We separated from the workers at the foot of the west side of Xiaodong Mountain and soon arrived at the last night's stone bridge.
Chen Mu looked natural and walked onto the stone bridge without any abnormalities.
Feel free to look at the scenery on both sides of the Bailang River.
From the corner of his eye, he saw two pools of black blood on the ground.
The strong man's body had disappeared, and Lu Jin was nowhere to be seen.
Who took the two away?
Is Lu Jin rescued?
Will the Yamen intervene in the investigation?
Chen Mu walked steadily, thoughts swirling in his heart.
One is dead, the other is unknown about life and death.
One is a ruthless bandit who has killed many people, and the other is a county government arrester.
This should have been a major event that alarmed the county town, but there was no news in the gathering area so close.
…
Beside the Bailang River, there is a bay with calm water.
Chen Mu sat on the stone on the shore.
Thinking about the unexpected incident last night, he shook his head after a moment: "It's useless to think too much, it's not as good as liver proficiency."
A gray wall stood before me.
Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse: 9397/10000/Level 2;
Compared with the speed of the training technique of a turtle crawling, the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse has made rapid progress.
Say the incantation quickly.
Black smoke appeared in the air.
A ball of drunken bait as big as a fist appeared out of thin air, fell into the water with a pop, and disappeared.
Chen Mu continued to use the five ghosts moving mountain technique to move the bait.
Throw a ball into the water every two or three meters, let the drunken bait spread, and ignore it.
I found a big white stone by the river and sat down.
Closing his eyes slightly, black smoke suddenly appeared and disappeared around him.
At noon, Chen Mu stopped practicing and took out the rice ball Bigu Pill.
After many improvements, rice balls are not only delicious, but also nutritious and extremely high in calories.
For an ordinary person, one pill can serve as a meal.
Chen Mu's practice of body training consumes a lot of money. But after eating five of them, I no longer felt hungry.
After eating and drinking, Chen Mu habitually looked at the gray wall.
Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse: 9722/10000/Level 2;
"Work hard, and I will reach the third level of the Five Ghost Curse today."
Feed the fish floating in the water to the five ghost bags.
Chen Mu didn't take a break and turned around to continue brushing up on his proficiency.
…
at dusk.
Chen Mu came back to his senses with a pale face.
With a thought in his mind, he spit out a complex spell in one breath.
call!
Black smoke filled the air, and two lifelike paper figures as big as palms appeared out of thin air.
It is covered with blood-red lines, and there are big black characters on the back, one for "Winter" and the other for "Spring".
Chen Mu let out a long breath and looked at the paper man with the character "春" curiously.
It is slimmer than the first paper man and has more delicate features.
Chen Mu controlled two paper figures to float under a stone the size of a human head.
Four hands and two heads support the stone.
"rise!"
The little paper man's legs were shaking like chaff, and his little face was grinning, but the stone didn't move at all.
Chen Mu: "..." Thinking too much. Thinking too much.
The two ghost paper figures still cannot change their appearance as paper figures.
Chen Mu was misled by Qianshan Taoist.
The paper man controlled by the opponent can resist the Iron Lotus and the Hidden Blade.
The Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse had just made some progress, and he wanted to give it a try.
The result is still a waste snack, and it’s hard to even get a piece of toilet paper!
"If you don't use the medicine man to make sacrifices, the paper man will just be a paper man."
People who nourish medicine, offer sacrifices to ghosts.
This is a secret method of sacrifice recorded at the end of the Thousand Mountains Sutra.
It’s about using human life to enhance the power of magic weapons.
Chen Mu took a few glances and gave up decisively. There are proficiency plug-ins. He doesn't worry about improving his strength.
It’s okay not to practice this secret method that is eager for quick success and has endless troubles!
Putting the evil method behind him, Chen Mu continued to study the third-level Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse.
With a thought, the paper figure turned into black smoke and disappeared.
Crackling.
A fish fell out of thin air five meters away and jumped on the ground.
"Okay!" Chen Mu was excited: "The throw distance of the Mystic Smoke has been extended by one meter."
Release the poison five meters away, greatly increasing the safety factor!
The thought moves again.
Another fish appeared five meters in front of him, and an Bigu Pill appeared five meters behind him.
"Because there are two paper figures, I can take out two things in two directions at the same time." Chen Mu thought thoughtfully.
The feeling of using the ghost paper man is like having an invisible hand.
One more paper figure means one more hand.
"The release of the magical smoke is more flexible and changeable."
Intuitively, he can poison enemies in two directions at the same time.
"The speed of chanting the incantation has been shortened to one breath."
"The release distance is increased to five meters."
"Throw in both directions at the same time."
Adding the three together, the third-level Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse, combined with the Mystic Smoke, is no longer just a sneak attack.
Even in frontal combat, it still has considerable power.
"Full harvest, go home!"
Chen Mu waved his hand and all the fish on the river disappeared.
Carrying the bamboo basket on his back, Chen Mu quickly disappeared by the river bank.
