This involves controlling the core secrets of the entire army, so it is reasonable to send Jiapo!
"Trouble!"
……
Chen Mu didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the middle-aged man was staring at him.
He became more and more afraid to act rashly.
"Do I really have to wear an iron bracelet and be controlled by others?" Chen Mu gritted his teeth unwillingly.
"I should have asked Jie Jia to find out clearly before hiding." Chen Mu regretted.
At this point, he was completely at a loss.
The middle-aged man was too threatening. Just one look at him made him feel a sense of fatal danger.
"With this kind of person in charge, how can I find the Thousand Machine Order?" Chen Mu was dejected.
If you run, you will die; if you don’t run, you will be controlled.
"Forget it, I'll continue to be a laborer. At least I won't die for the time being." Chen Mu thought with a grim expression.
"Everyone in the civilian camp wears an iron bracelet, and I haven't heard of any abnormal deaths. This means that there is no problem with the iron bracelet for the time being." Chen Mu comforted himself.
"Once we pass this stage, I will ask Jie Jia to see if he can remove this control method." Chen Mu sighed.
What is this? I'm digging my own grave?
……
The team moved forward and soon arrived at Chen Mu.
"Sun Dawang is from Sunjiazhai in Nanyang Prefecture. He has both parents, a sister and a brother..." The old man with a goat beard read out Sun Dawang's basic information.
With this information, it will be easier to provide compensation for the dead and track down the escaped.
The middle-aged man used a brush to write on the inner wall of the iron ring.
Wherever the pen tip passed, a slight hissing sound was heard.
Each tiny character is corroded on the iron ring.
"Is there anything missing?" asked the old man with a goatee.
Chen Mu shook his head dumbly.
"Raise your hand." The middle-aged man said expressionlessly.
Chen Mu sighed, feeling the middle-aged man's cold gaze, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.
Eventually, you will be controlled by others.
The key is that he walked into the trap himself!
It's shame for a time traveler to end up like this!
So he reluctantly stretched out a rough hand that was more than twice as big as an ordinary person's, and placed it in front of the middle-aged man with an embarrassed look.
"My hands are too big. I...I may not be able to wear them."
Thanks to the shape-changing technique and thanks to Xing Laoliu!
If it weren't for the shape-changing technique combined with the "Bone Reading and Foreface Checking", he would definitely not be able to enlarge his palm without leaving any trace.
Chen Mu's heart beat faster when he thought about the fact that he was playing tricks right under the nose of a Jiapo.
Seeing the other person's expressionless face suddenly reveal a look of surprise, Chen Mu felt so happy.
Then he saw the middle-aged man reach into the bronze box... and take out a larger iron ring.
Chen Mu: “…”
This... this is not something you can escape from?!
……
The fire chief of Dingyou camp.
Chen Mu looked at the huge iron ring on his left hand with sorrow.
"After all, I still underestimated the dangers of this world."
In order to find the Thousand Machine Order, he was so crazy that he controlled everyone and even spared no ordinary laborers in the civilian camp!
"No wonder the civilian camp is so huge."
Under normal circumstances, it is reasonable for logistics laborers to account for one-quarter to one-fifth of the total number of people.
But here, the number of civilian laborers is almost twice that of normal soldiers!
"Are you going to use civilians as cannon fodder?" Chen Mu's face looked grim.
Once you put on the iron ring, you can't escape.
No wonder the treatment is so good, it’s basically life-saving money!
"Aren't the lives of us ordinary civilians lives worth living?" Chen Mu was filled with grief and indignation!
"Luckily I'm a cut above the rest."
Chen Mu couldn't help but look at the space inside the Five Ghosts Bag.
A black thread floats in the air.
A small paper figure with the word "Xia" on it was squatting beside him, staring at the black line in his hair all the time.
He had already covered the five ghosts with black smoke under his sleeves.
The moment the black line entered his sleeve, he moved it into the space.
“It’s really dangerous!”
Chen Mu was still frightened.
"It's a pity that I can't go to Chunfeng Tower." Chen Mu regretted.
“You have to reward yourself”
Chen Mu turned his head and looked at Fenxi River not far away.
"Let's quietly make some boiled fish."
This is a military camp, and also an unappreciated civilian camp.
There is only one requirement for cooking: cooked.
After eating the working meals at Dingyou Camp for three days, Chen Mu almost vomited.
……
February 642th, nd year of Daliang.
At the foot of Tangshan Mountain, the Dingyou Camp of civilian workers is stationed.
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and swung the knife as usual.
Duoduoduo...
The rhythmic sound of a knife cutting through the wooden pier continued.
After a long while, Chen Mu came back to his senses, and his confused eyes gradually focused.
While the short and stocky Zheng Yuan next to him wasn't paying attention, he quietly stuffed a fasting pill into his mouth.
My growling stomach suddenly calmed down.
He had been in Tangshan Army for half a month since the day he put on the iron ring.
Cutting vegetables and practicing breathing techniques became his whole life.
With a thought in his mind, a gray wall appeared and Chen Mu looked at the entry at the bottom.
Mirage Form Training Technique: 3185/10000/Level ;
"It's a long and arduous journey." Chen Mu sighed.
He is now eager to improve his strength.
If you want to obtain the Thousand Machine Order, you cannot participate without the strength of Jiapo.
That middle-aged man gave Chen Mu a great sense of crisis.
I silently felt the area covered by the wandering soul and realized that it had already covered my navel, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Cloud Mirage Form Training Technique had only progressed by one third, the other six Form Training Techniques had been improved as well.
“Finally almost halfway.”
Focus your attention on the Five Ghosts Bag.
The little paper man was still squatting guarding the black line of hair.
Chen Mu discovered that this thing seemed like a living thing and was good at drilling into flesh and blood.
He wasted several fish for this.
Once it enters a living organism, it will absorb nutrients from the host and grow dormant.
"Could it be some kind of parasite?"
Fortunately, it didn't get into my body.
He looked at Zheng Yuan beside him with pity.
The other civilians all have one of these things in their bodies.

Chapter 141 Chance Encounter
At the foot of Xiaotang Mountain, Fenxi River flows around the mountain.
Although Fenxi’s name contains “xi” (stream), it is actually a large river that is more than ten meters wide.
The water of Fenxi River flows slowly and is crystal clear, formed by the confluence of mountain springs. The fish in the river are firm and delicious.
