That means that Jiapo can at least allow a centenarian to live another twenty or thirty years.
"Then won't I be able to live another hundred years full of energy and vitality?!" Chen Mu's face was full of joy.
This way he will have more time to improve his proficiency and explore the unknown world!
With a flip of his wrist, a handful of iron lotus seeds appeared in his palm.
Filled with courage, Chen Mu slowly clenched his fists.
squeak...
A teeth-grinding sound of metal friction was heard.
Chen Mu opened his hand, and dozens of iron lotus seeds were squeezed into one.
The twisted shape had a faint red glow, and the humid air was slightly distorted by the burning sensation.
"Grip iron into mud!"
I reached out and pinched the dark skin, and it felt like pinching hard leather.
But as long as he wanted, this thin black film would immediately become indestructible, at least not by common weapons.
In front of this layer of armor, the attacks of ordinary warriors are useless.
He took out his hidden dagger and gently stabbed it into the palm of his hand, slowly increasing the force until he reached his maximum strength.
A trace of pain came from the palm of my hand.
"If it were thicker, it would probably be impossible to pierce it." Chen Mu thought of Bai Miaojin.
The opponent was able to take ninety-three blows from his hidden sword with his bare hands without getting hurt at all, all because of his great courage.
Chen Mu looked at the proficiency.
Mirage Form Training Technique: 6110/10000/Level ;
"Wait until my Yun Shen shape-shifting technique is perfected. At the same time, I can stack seven kinds of spirit power. The spirit power should be pretty good." Chen Mu thought happily.
……
The Tangshan Army went into the mountains from time to time, but this had nothing to do with the civilian camp.
Chen Mu cooks diligently every day to improve his proficiency.
He was also curious about how the Tangshan Army trained its troops.
But when he thought of the man in black who was taken by him to run eight laps around the lake that night, Chen Mu gave up the idea.
Those people are very powerful and he doesn't want to get into trouble.
They didn’t dare to release the paper figures of ghosts casually.
The changes between reality and illusion can deceive ordinary people, but not Bai Miaojin and Cuicui.
Even though he had mastered the armor spirit and his Five Ghost Bags had gained the form of ghosts, the world was still dangerous.
"Don't waste time." Chen Mu warned himself.
Then I continued to take the fasting pills and practice the body shape training in Dingyou Camp.
Chen Mu got a headache when he thought of the strength revealed by Tang Shanjun.
"The Thousand Machine Order is not easy to grab."
……
Half a month later, the army set out.
After staying at the Crescent Lake of Yunzhan Mountain for nearly a month, the Tangshan Army finally completed its initial training and led its troops north again.
On both sides of the broad official road were verdant green mountains. A long convoy that seemed to have no end was moving forward slowly.
The sounds of footsteps, wheels of carriages, voices, and the mooing of livestock were intertwined together.
In the Dingyou Camp’s fire-leading army convoy.
Chen Mu leaned against the right side of the carriage.
On the carriage behind him was a pile of tent parts such as felt, wooden poles, ropes, and nails.
"Where are we going?" Chen Mu asked softly.
"Qingshan County." Cuicui sat on the right side of the top of the cargo, with her hands on both sides of her body and her legs shaking lightly.
"Qingshan County?" The small county where he first came? His hometown?
"Are there ghosts haunting there?"
He didn't expect to have another encounter with this place.
"There are more than just ghosts."
“It’s all become a ghost town.”
Chen Mu's pupils shrank.
He had heard before that due to the war in the north, many cities were destroyed and turned into ghost towns.
But he didn't expect that Qingshan County would become an empty city and a ghost town.
No one knows what happened after they left Qingshan County.
Jiejia said that the Thousand Machine Order only appears in places where ghosts gather.
There is a Qianji Order in Qingshan County? Chen Mu understood.
He glanced at Cuicui calmly.
"This man and this ghost are also looking for the Thousand Machine Order?" Chen Mu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
Bai Miaojin is most likely Jiapo.
But I am also a Kapo.
Cuicui is a powerful ghost.
But I have the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains Curse.
I also have a soul-fixing stake.
If I attack them suddenly, I can catch them off guard...
Forget it, forget it, how could I have such a dangerous idea. Chen Mu repeatedly warned himself.
Don't think about things that you are not 100% sure about.
"Are you thinking about something bad?" Cui Cui suddenly fell down, put her pretty face close to Chen Mu, and looked at him suspiciously.
"I'm thinking about the snack tonight, roasted mountain deer or roasted wild boar." Chen Mu said calmly without changing his expression.
"Really..." Cui Cui frowned: "Then why do I feel a hint of malice?"
Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat and he immediately calmed down.
"Maybe someone from the Shangguan family wants to cause trouble." Chen Mu instigated calmly.
"Impossible." Cuicui said confidently, "They still need Xiaobai's help to find the Thousand Machine Order."
“Keep your promise because the value of breaking it is not great enough.”
"What if they appear to be cooperating but actually want to monopolize the Thousand Machine Order..." Chen Mu continued to add fuel to the fire meaningfully.
"Keep it all for yourself? I found it for them, why should I keep it all for myself?" Cui Cui was puzzled. Her pretty face turned cold as if she thought of something: "Do they want to default on their debt?"
Defaulting on the debt? Am I thinking something wrong? Chen Mu was stunned: "Miss Bai doesn't want the Thousand Machine Order?"
That is a precious ticket to go overseas.
The total amount in the whole world is only about one hundred yuan.
Cuicui was thinking about the various possibilities of the Shangguan family defaulting on their debts, and glanced at Chen Mu impatiently: "Xiao Bai is born with a Taoist bone, why does he need that thing?"
Chen Mu: “…”
Are you God's child?
That fierce general who is over two meters tall?
Chen Mu just felt a breath stuck in his chest.
He changed his appearance, hid carefully, and lived in fear all day long, but still had no idea how to obtain the Thousand Machine Order.
But that fierce general was born with a Taoist bone? !
Isn't this the same as being born with the Thousand Machine Order in one's mouth? !
Chen Mu's face twitched with jealousy, and he almost showed his true colors!
"You also want the Thousand Machine Order?" Cuicui suddenly came back to her senses and looked at Chen Mu with a smile.
"Why do I need that thing?" Chen Mu said calmly, "How much does it cost?"
"Ha! You are really not honest!" Cui Cui laughed.
"Silver? There's a lot of that stuff in Xiaobai's house that's rusty." Cuicui smiled: "We want white jade money."
"Shangguan Ji promised to give us ten white jade coins."
White jade money? What is that? Chen Mu's eyes flashed with confusion.
"What do you think? As long as you give us eleven, we will help you find a Thousand Machine Order first." Cuicui looked at Chen Mu with a smile.
Chen Mu frowned and thought: "Or... let's have roasted deer tonight, the meat is tender."
"Ha ha……"

Chapter 149 Fate
April 642, nd year of Daliang.
Outside Qingshan County, at the foot of Xiaodong Mountain, on the banks of Bailang River.
Chen Mu could hardly recognize Xiao Dongshan's appearance.
