The dagger's trajectory was graceful and natural, and it just happened to bypass the eagle's claws and easily pierce into Tu Shan's chest along the bottom of the wrist.

call!

A strong wind whistled past, blowing Chen Mu's long hair up and down. Tu Shan's fist suddenly stopped in front of Chen Mu's forehead.

Chen Mu tilted his head slightly, revealing his face from beside his huge fist, and looked at Tu Shan with a smile: "Whose tent is it?"

"Yours!" Tu Shan gritted his teeth.

“Whose barbecue is it?”

"Yours!" Tu Shan's forehead was covered with sweat.

The ebony sword gently touched his heart: "Leave no hidden dangers? Eliminate the root of the problem?"

Tu Shan's eyes were as red as bells, and he was furious: "Surrender!"

Chen Mu: “…”

I fucking thought you were going to fight me to the death!

Chapter 174 Prejudgment

Inside the mountain camp.

Tu Shan came out of the woods carrying a wild boar and landed in front of Chen Mu with a bang.

"Why didn't you run?" Chen Mu looked at the two-meter-tall man in surprise.

"I'm afraid you will poison me. What if you run far away and I die from the poison?" Tu Shan said seriously.

Chen Mu: “…”

"You've enlightened me!" Chen Mu suddenly realized something and looked at Tu Shan with gratitude: "It's better to keep some means of restraint."

Tu Shan: “…”

Chen Mu chuckled and ate the meat slowly.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this strong man surrendered happily just now, as if he was really controlled by him. There must be some unknown hidden card behind it.

The other party just doesn't want to risk his life.

If Chen Mu had really dared to stab the other person's heart, this strong man would have really dared to blow his head off.

Chen Mu also didn't want to risk his life, so the two of them reached a subtle draw.

"How about I help you hunt and you help me cook?" Tu Shan said with a smile.

He just wanted to find a decent place to eat and sleep, and this camp was perfect.

"Not so good." Chen Mu shook his head. How comfortable it is to stay at home.

"I can help you avoid unnecessary troubles, especially those from aristocratic families." Tu Shan pointed to the top of the main peak of Shouyang Mountain in the distance.

"If I can find this place, the people in the palace over there can probably find it too."

"My name, the Demon Ape, is still very useful among the aristocratic families." Tu Shan said confidently.

Chen Mu raised his eyebrows: "It's not impossible."

With Tu Shan's help in keeping away troubles from the outside world, I can live in seclusion in peace for the next two or three months.

"It's settled then!" Tu Shan chuckled.

"We can be said to have known each other for a long time." Tu Shan unceremoniously picked up a palm-sized piece of barbecue from the oven and threw it into his mouth: "Good cooking skills!"

He looked at Chen Mu while chewing with big mouthfuls.

Just after a change of hands, he felt a fatal threat. However, the threat did not come from the dagger. The opponent must have a follow-up move!

This is a master who is as powerful as him, but much younger than him!

Where did it come from?

Tu Shan was curious: "My name is Tu Shan, what's yours?"

"My name is Sincerity." Chen Mu spoke nonsense calmly.

Tu Shan's face turned dark at that moment, and I almost believed it.

"I know sincerity!"

Chen Mu: “…”

Isn't this really embarrassing?

After thinking for a while, Chen Mu said calmly: "Sorry, I said the wrong thing. My name is Cheng Ming."

As if he was afraid that Tu Shan would not believe him, he then explained seriously, "Chengyi is my senior brother, and we often exchange Taoist names for fun."

Tu Shan: “…”

Guess whether I believe it or not!

……

"What was that move just now? I could clearly catch it?" Tu Shan asked casually while eating meat.

He still hasn't figured it out.

Chen Mu glanced at the other person, wondering?

Just hold it in!

He called up the gray wall and looked at the rapier with the limit icon. His heart was immediately filled with a sense of accomplishment.

"The hidden blade has reached its peak."

"Another max-level skill, great!"

Just like the locking ability granted by the throwing limit.

The rapier also gave him a predictive ability.

Using one's own cognition as material, it is automatically summarized and analyzed through the subconscious background, and then used to predict the opponent's actions and find the opponent's flaws.

“Nice ability.”

Similar to the locking of throwing, the ability depends on your own strength and your understanding of the opponent.

If the opponent is far beyond our understanding, this ability will be useless.

But when fighting against opponents of the same level, if you have the ability to predict, you will be almost invincible.

"At least I don't have to delve into various fighting techniques." Chen Mu thought happily.

He bought the secret book for dozens of taels of silver on the black market, and practiced it to this level, what else could he ask for? He felt like he could wake up with a smile in his sleep.

……

September 642, nd year of Daliang.

Under the cliff on the east side of Shouyang Mountain, there is a hidden crevice extending into the interior of the cliff.

Chen Mu was surrounded by black smoke and was floating in the air more than two meters above the sea.

One paper figure could only lift him half a meter off the ground. But two could lift him more than a meter. With five paper figures working together, he could even float five meters in mid-air!

"We can finally fly!" Chen Mu thought happily.

He controlled the five ghosts to hold him up and make him circle around in this narrow gap.

Although its fastest speed is only about the same as a galloping horse, it is not as fast as him.

But...it's flying!

After spinning for quite a while, Chen Mu had enough of it, so he lowered the altitude and hovered one meter above the sea surface.

At this moment, the originally dark blue sea surface was filled with white drunken fish.

"Don't really invite the Sea Dragon King." Chen Mu thought happily.

The next moment, black smoke filled the sea.

"Five ghosts moving a mountain!"

Large groups of marine fish disappeared immediately.

In the Five Ghosts Bag, a drop of red the size of a mung bean slowly condensed.

Feeling the struggle and unwillingness coming from the five ghosts, Chen Mu tried his best to block the surging devouring desire in his mind.

In just three breaths, the sea surface returned to its dark blue color again.

Chen Mu stopped chanting the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains Curse, breathed a sigh of relief, and then stared at the black smoke angrily: "If it wasn't for preparing food for you, would I have endured this?"

When sailing on the sea, he didn't know the situation, so he had to prepare food for the Five Ghost Bags in advance.

Zhaodianhong is a concentrated essence of the three treasures. It has high energy and does not take up much space. One drop is enough to sustain the Five Ghosts Bag for a long time.

……

Inside the mountain camp.

"Do you know about what's happening overseas?" Chen Mu asked calmly during the meal.

Tu Shan has been active in Daliang for decades, and has made the noble families so angry that they dare not speak out. Maybe he knows some exclusive information.

"It's just a change of place, there's no difference." Tu Shan looked indifferent.

"There will be more subsequent training methods."

"Everywhere you go, fists have the final say."

Chen Mu nodded. This rough man saw through it.

"It's still a little different." Tu Shan thought for a while and said.

"I heard that some places are extremely chaotic, and the strong act recklessly. Some even kill and injure tens of thousands of people just to refine magic weapons."

Chen Mu frowned. If he really went to this place where people’s lives were disregarded, he never knew when a disaster would befall him.

"Is there no safer place?"
