"Must go?" Chen Mu asked unwillingly.
After all, Wuyan Mountain is on the front line of the battle. What if it encounters danger?
"The reckless men from the Inspectorate destroyed the Yanxia Sect's warehouse."
"Wuyan Mountain is humid and rainy. Without the protection of warehouse restrictions, yellow sprouted rice is prone to mold and spoilage." Zhu Yi said helplessly.
"It's too troublesome to transport it back to Yuquan Mountain. It's best to practice Bigu Pill on the spot and then move it here."
Then he sighed and said, "Originally Qi Hui was going."
"But his alchemy volume has dropped sharply recently, and a lot of materials have been wasted."
"I don't dare send him to make alchemy."
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Quantity dropped sharply, wasting materials?
Is it too much of a coincidence?
Seeing that Chen Mu was silent, Zhu Yi smiled and persuaded: "Wuyan Mountain is indeed not peaceful."
"But our Uncle Liu Ling and Liu are sitting there."
"When you go, just make elixirs and don't worry about anything else. Your safety is absolutely guaranteed."
Liu Ling?
One of the four Ningqiao experts in Yuquan Mountain Villa?
Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that Wuyanshan and his party had to go.
Then he frowned and asked, "I'm not going alone, am I?"
"That's not possible." Zhu Yi shook his head: "There are three alchemy boys with you."
"They are all experts at the Alchemy Pavilion and are good at absorbing the essence of grains. They can assist you in refining elixirs."
…
Chen Mudong Mansion, in the living room.
"You are going too?" Chen Mu frowned and looked at Bai Xiuwen.
Then he looked at Feng and Xue: "You two have also been selected, right?"
"Our ability to absorb the essence of grains is still a little bit behind." Feng Haoxiu said embarrassedly with a dark face.
Chen Mu nodded in disbelief.
"Is there anything unusual about Qi Hui?"
"Abnormal? That's not true." Bai Xiuwen thought for a while.
"Just a bit grumpy."
what happened?
"The job to go to Wuyan Mountain is well-paid. He wanted to go, but Pavilion Master Zhu didn't agree." Bai Xiuwen chuckled.
"Do you know why Qi Hui reduced the amount of alchemy before?" Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.
"Do you suspect that he is showing weakness on purpose? Just to avoid going to Wuyan Mountain?" Bai Xiuwen was surprised: "Isn't it possible?"
It’s hard to say.
Chen Mu said nothing.
"I don't know if Senior Brother Qi is showing weakness on purpose, but I do know a little bit about why he reduced the amount of alchemy." Feng Haoxiu looked at the two people around him and said hesitantly.
"Tell me about it." Chen Mu became interested.
"Senior Brother Qi sold the grain essence we refined." Feng Haoxiu whispered: "The price seems to be twice that of the General Administration."
Sold?
Isn't it Qi Hui who is causing trouble? Misunderstanding?
"Double?" Bai Xiuwen wondered: "Which scapegoat would pay this price?"
Chen Mu was also curious.
The price given by the General Affairs Council is no different from that of the outside world. If it were doubled again, could we still make some money?
Feng Haoxiu shook his head and said, "I don't know him."
"I only know that he is a little bald and a little fat."
Fat bald?
Chen Mu looked strange.
"Not old?"
"You know?" Feng Haoxiu was surprised.
I would rather not know!
Is this fat bald guy really doing some deviant business? Otherwise, how could he dare to give such a high price to the essence of grain?
"You are so brave!" Chen Mu shook his head and sighed.
Fortunately, Shang Huan had been warned before and allowed him to control Mu Linglang's sales targets.
Liang Yi knew Gongsun Sheng's false identity.
…
After sending Bai Xiuwen and the others away, Chen Mu returned to the alchemy room.
"This trip to Wuyan Mountain will most likely have nothing to do with Qi Hui."
"No, not only related, but also very related!"
"It's all because of Qi Hui's poor alchemy skills, otherwise Zhu Yi wouldn't have chosen me!"
"I don't expect you to surpass me. It's okay to even out the gap a little." Chen Mu complained.
I am a new alchemist myself.
As long as Qi Hui is not too far behind him. This fat and oily mission is easy to win.
"Qi Hui, Qi Hui, I gave you a chance but you didn't use it!" Chen Mu gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
He really didn't want to go to Mist Mountain.
Although Liu Ling is in charge there, it is still newly conquered territory.
Once repeated, there will be danger. Where is the safety of Yuquan Mountain?
"Alas...it's a pity that it doesn't matter what we say." Chen Mu was helpless.
If you have low cultivation level, you have no right to speak.
…
The next day, Yuquanfang.
Going to Wuyan Mountain is a foregone conclusion.
Chen Mu stopped thinking about it and started preparing travel supplies.
Went to Xiuyi Pavilion to get the gray magic weapon trousers.
I went to Baibao Pavilion and bought some detoxifying pills for Dongling poisonous miasma poisonous insects.
Put together a living set that includes pots, pans, tents, bedding, etc.
Buy a bunch of shelf-stable dried meat jerky.
I also ordered two baskets of vegetables to be made into dehydrated dried vegetables.
Finally, Chen Mu came to the door of Shang Huan's Qiwutang.
He was leaving Yuquan Mountain for a while and had to tell Shang Huan in advance.
Let the fat man act more restrained, lest he fail to protect himself and be in danger.
…
Yuquanfang, the backyard of Qiwutang.
Mr. Hao was worried: "You are an enemy!"
"If the Inspectorate finds out that you are doing business with those evil sects, you will be doomed!"
Shang Huanhe chuckled: "We just sell things to the mountain people in Dongling. As for who they sell the things to, hehe..."
Mr. Hao couldn't help but look sideways at Shang Huan.
Those mountain people were originally related to Dongling Side Gate. Many children of mountain people have studied in those sects since they were young.
If you sell it to the mountain people, you are still endorsing the enemy!
"Mr. Gongsun warned you not to do business with those evil people."
"In case he pursues the investigation..."
Instead, Shang Huan raised his eyebrows and said confidently: "Mr. Gongsun just didn't let me sell it to the evil sect Mu Linglang. He didn't say he wouldn't let me sell the Heavenly Vision and Earthly Listening Talisman."
"I completely understand what Mr. Gongsun means!"
"Mu Linglang is Mr. Gongsun's trademark. Once he appears in the hands of evil, he will be held accountable for no reason."
"But for other things, that's totally fine."
"Essence of grains, treasures for healing, pathfinding talismans, and all the goods that appear in Yuquanfang can be sold in the mountains!"
"Look, how big a business this is!" Shang Huan's eyes lit up with excitement.
Outside the Qiwu Hall, Chen Mu was listening to the Dharma with his ears hanging: "..."
Did you learn your reading comprehension from monsters? !
…
For a long time, in the backyard of Qiwutang.
"Oh, Shang Huan, what's wrong with you? Do you want to find a doctor to take a look?" Chen Mu pretended to be concerned.
"It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy." Shang Huan's face turned pale and he answered while suppressing the darkness in his eyes.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
He always felt that something was wrong with the expression of the person in front of him.
"The other hospital has given me a task, asking me to go to Wuyan Mountain to make elixirs. The specific time of my return is uncertain. I will come over and let you know."
"If you really encounter someone making things difficult, then close the door and rest for a while."
"It's not peaceful in the mountains recently. You must not cause any trouble." Chen Mu said meaningfully.
Shang Huan suddenly looked solemn.
"Don't worry."
"I'm just a small businessman and I will never get into trouble!"
Shang Huan swears by it.
Chen Muxu looked at Shang Huan.
It seems that the power of the mind is still lacking.
The seven souls return to their origin!
