Chen Mu cautiously said goodbye.
The girl in the emerald green dress smiled and nodded and let him go.
"The army will set off soon. Someone verify your identity and bring your iron rings." The strong female man said calmly.
"I'm wearing it. I'm wearing it all the time." Chen Mu nodded repeatedly.
The strong female man glanced at Chen Mu, turned around and said calmly: "Let's go Cuicui."
Then he appeared twenty meters away in an instant.
The girl in the emerald green dress immediately stood up and waved her hand, smiling and saying, "Sun Dawang, the fire chief of the Dingyou camp, see you later!"
Damn, this has been remembered...
Chen Mu waved his hand, looking flattered.
"See you later."
The girl in the emerald green dress smiled, turned around and took a step forward, and suddenly appeared next to the majestic figure.
Chen Mu: “…”
It’s not easy at all!
Wait, Cuicui?
So, that strong and brave general is the real Bai Miaojin?
Ah……
……
February 642, nd year of Daliang.
The Tangshan Camp army set out.
Chen Mu mixed in with the firearms and followed the Dingyou Battalion to the Fenxi Ferry.
Fifty-meter-long ships have already docked at the shore.
The civilian laborers lined up in an orderly manner to board the ship according to their sequence numbers.
At one end of the pier extending into the river, a thin old man in his fifties sat quietly behind a long table.
Check the iron wristbands of each person boarding the ship one by one.
"I don't know what's going on with the ghosts in the north." Chen Mu was worried.
Thinking of the Zuming Talisman on his sleeve, the Five Ghosts Bag on his chest, and the Soul-Fixing Stake inside the bag, Chen Mu felt a little relieved.
Thinking about the strength that was about to cover his thighs, Chen Mu finally felt relieved. "I'm not afraid if I really encounter a ghost monster. I have so many trump cards to kill... well, I can still run away."
"Keep a low profile and don't waste time." Chen Mu warned himself.
Ding dong!
A crisp collision sound was heard.
boom!
A dull sound of impact came, and a black shadow flew out like a rag doll.
Four elite soldiers wearing black leather armor leaped into the air and subdued and tied up the black shadow in an instant.
"Take it away." The old man behind the long table retracted his clenched fist and said lightly.
what happened?
Chen Mu looked over quickly.
The other party has an iron bracelet?
"Hey! I guess someone bought someone else's iron bracelet and sneaked in." Zheng Yuan in front of him gloated: "Just wait and see, both the buyer and the seller will be unlucky."
Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat: "Don't you recognize the ring but not the person?"
Zheng Yuan chuckled: "As long as the ring is there, the person is there. If you recognize the ring, you will recognize the person as well."
The ring is with the person?
Without the iron ring, the black string would drain a person dry! Isn't it true that "the ring is there for the person"?
Wait! They recognize rings and people? How do they recognize people?
That old man can detect black lines?!
Chen Mu: “…”
This is the end!

Chapter 143 Crescent Lake
Fenxi Ferry.
On the open space beside the wooden pier, there stood a huge sunshade oil-paper umbrella, and underneath it was a long brown lacquered table.
On the tabletop was a four-legged door-shaped stand about as high as an arm. A white jade ring inlaid with gold threads hung in the middle of the stand.
There is a silver thread underneath, with five peanut-sized teardrop-shaped jade pendants hanging from it.
"Stretch out your hand." A thin old man in his fifties said coldly.
Chen Mu stretched out his left hand tremblingly, feeling very nervous.
The old man took off the huge iron bracelet and checked the inner wall of the bracelet. Then he squinted at the jade pendant.
A breeze blew, and the jade pendants swayed, but they never touched each other.
"Let's go." The old man said calmly, "You are too weak. Eat more."
Chen Mu nodded rapidly and walked onto the wooden trestle bridge with a grateful look on his face.
"Huh! I finally passed!" Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
Then the clothes on his chest suddenly rose and fell.
Snapped!
It was as if someone had slapped him in the chest, and a crisp sound came from under his robe.
"What's going on?" Zheng Yuan, who was walking in front, looked back suspiciously.
Chen Mu stretched out his hand and slapped his chest hard, knocking out the river fish hidden under his clothes and parasitized by the black thread. He smiled and said, "It's a little itchy."
"Why is there a fishy smell?" Zheng Yuan twitched his nose twice, looking confused.
"It smells like river water..." Chen Mu lied.
"No, it smells fishy!" Zheng Yuan glared at Chen Mu meaningfully: "You are not honest."
Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat and his eyes narrowed.
Did this fat guy see something?
I worked so hard to hide myself and managed to avoid the iron ring disaster twice. How could this fat guy see the flaw?
"You need to show some appreciation." Zheng Yuan came closer with a smile.
Blackmail me?
Ah……
Chen Mu glanced at Zheng Yuan expressionlessly.
Sure enough, I was found to be inappropriate...
"You will not live if you do something wrong..."
Black smoke immediately rolled out from the cuffs.
Zheng Yuan approached Chen Mu calmly and said in a low voice: "How dare you cook for yourself?! I can smell the smell of grilled fish on you!"
Then he stared at Chen Mu with his wise little eyes, and said firmly: "Next time if you don't ask me to go with you, I will tell your Seventh Uncle!"
Chen Mu: “…”
Just...that's it?
"Okay." Chen Mu looked at the smug short guy with a complicated expression.
He has all the magic smoke in his sleeves ready, he's just one step away!
This shorty was almost about to fall into the water in public.
Zheng Yuan became more and more proud: "You hid it very well. I didn't find the place you chose, but my nose could smell it. I knew you were doing something special."
"I'm smart, right?" Shorty laughed.
Smart! You are so smart!
Chen Mu was speechless. Then he sighed with an unpleasant expression.
What was I doing just now? I actually wanted to kill someone!
It's so cruel! I am no longer the same person I used to be!
"It's all because of Tang Shanjun's trouble!" Chen Mu thought bitterly.
"The black line that can suck people dry, supervised by the Armor Master, layer upon layer of verification, full of evil thoughts everywhere."
"Fortunately, I stopped myself before it was too late!" Chen Mu thought with relief.
"I am still a good person after all."
Looking at the chubby and short boy, Chen Mu was filled with pity.
Be glad that you met me.
How dare you play with your heart like this? If you meet someone quick-handed, you would have been dead long ago!
