……
After a pleasant exchange, the atmosphere in the Cave No. 11 of Wuzi Temple suddenly became harmonious and wonderful.
Every time they looked at each other, although the six siblings' gazes were different, they were all filled with strong emotions.
Chen Mu thought it was a friendly gesture.
So he grinned, showing his white teeth, and responded with a generous and kind smile.
As time went by, with the efforts of both sides, the atmosphere in the dojo became more and more wonderful.
At noon that day, several people stopped practicing and took the fasting pills.
Then, as usual, they exchanged glances filled with emotion.
Just as they were exchanging glances and flirting with each other, a wealthy middle-aged man named Sun rushed in.
I was greeted by seven pairs of friendly gazes.
The wealthy middle-aged man froze.
"Excuse me...excuse me!"
With a cry, he turned and fled.
After a long while, he turned back, stood behind the brown hollow screen at the entrance of the cave, and looked inside cautiously.
"I'm not going to check the badge. I'm going to tell you something." The wealthy middle-aged man said obediently, "If you leave on your own, remember to hand in the bronze badge."
"What happened?" Chen Mu asked curiously.
The wealthy middle-aged man glanced at a few people again, breathed a sigh of relief, coughed, and slowly moved out from behind the screen.
"I checked the bronze medals yesterday and found that two of them were missing."
"I thought he sneaked to another dojo, but I couldn't find him."
"Those two must have left early but didn't hand in their badges, thinking they would come back next time."
"The hospital said that even if you can leave, the bronze medal must stay. If you want to stay, you have to stay for a month before you can leave."
"If you leave midway, you won't get your money back, you won't get an extension, and you'll be fined if you don't hand in your sign!"
"So whoever of you wants to leave, you must not forget to return the bronze medal."
"Leaving before the contract expires?" Chen Mu was surprised.
It's freezing and snowy here, there's nothing to do if I go back.
The money has been paid, why would you leave early? !
"Whoever says it's not is a fool." The wealthy middle-aged man complained.
Because of these two people, they had to check each dojo one by one in the wind and snow.
"Maybe he can't stand the loneliness of hard training." Chen Mu said casually.
If it weren't for the proficiency plug-in, he wouldn't have been able to practice hard for such a long time.
……
After sending the middle-aged man surnamed Sun away, Chen Mu took a good look at this empty and simple cave.
On the three-meter-high cave ceiling, there are fist-sized fluorescent algae lamps inlaid, which look like stars in the sky.
The walls are grey rock and the floor is rammed earth.
The only thing provided in the lower house was a large grey pouf.
If you want to sleep at night, you have to sleep on the floor.
But most people choose to sit and rest on a futon instead of sleeping.
In order to make full use of the earth's spiritual energy, everyone is practicing every minute.
The mind is highly tense and it is inevitable to become restless and irritable after a long time.
It's not uncommon for some people to give up halfway.
"Next time I come, I must bring bedding with me." Chen Mu thought to himself.
"Can't I have a good sleep if I can't eat well?"
In the dojo, every second counts. Eating leads to excretion, so both ends waste time.
Moreover, it is not easy to prepare a month's worth of food in advance.
Therefore, most people only drink plain water with the Bigu Pills to reduce the number and time of going to the toilet.
"I have to come here at least eleven more times. I can't live in such misery all the time, right?"
"After all, it's just to lay the groundwork."
"Not only will I waste my money, but I will also suffer. I won't do this."
"Since I can't eat well, I think I can sleep well"
"Well... since we can't have a proper meal, it's still okay to bring some long-lasting meat snacks."
Chen Mu glanced at the six Wushan brothers and sisters and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
There are dried meat and fruits in his five ghosts bag.
If these guys hadn't been here, he would have taken it out and eaten it long ago.
pity……

Chapter 287 Missing
three days later.
Chen Mu was closing his eyes and contemplating the soul-nourishing spell.
The middle-aged man surnamed Sun suddenly poked his head out from behind the screen, glanced at a few people, then turned around and was about to leave.
"Stop!" Ai Ji glared at the other person: "What are you looking at!"
The middle-aged man surnamed Sun walked out from behind the screen, smiling awkwardly: "I just want to see if anyone here has sneaked away."
Someone else left the dojo midway?
Chen Mu couldn't help but open his eyes.
"Has this situation happened before?" Lu Ku asked.
"Everyone was busy opening up the land in the past year. There was no one in the dojo, so there was nothing going on." The middle-aged man surnamed Sun smiled bitterly.
"How many left?" Chen Mu frowned slightly.
"Seven."
……
After the middle-aged man left, the cave became silent for a while.
"Has similar problems ever occurred in the Shangyuan Dojo?" Chen Mu looked at Lu Ku solemnly.
This guy has already mastered the skill. He must have been to the Shangyuan Dojo.
Lu Ku narrowed his eyes slightly: "I haven't heard of it."
"How is the environment of the Upper House Dojo?" Chen Mu continued to ask, his brows already furrowed.
"It's not much better than here." Lu Ku's expression became serious.
That means this matter has little to do with the dojo itself.
Chen Mu stood up from the cushion, walked around the screen and came to the entrance of the dojo.
Through the wind and snow, look down at the circular Lengyuetan Lake.
A wooden trestle extends inward from the shore, and at the end, an octagonal pavilion stands alone in the middle of Lengyuetan.
Looking closely, a figure can be vaguely seen.
"Superintendent Song is still in Lengyuetan. There shouldn't be any problem, right?" Yulin asked hesitantly.
The six Wushan brothers and sisters also came to the entrance of the cave.
"It's hard to say." Chen Mu shook his head.
Could it be that the big toad has sneaked back?
Chen Mu's heart sank.
Go down the mountain? No!
It is even more dangerous without the deterrence of Supervisor Song at the foot of the mountain.
But staying in the dojo doesn’t seem safe either.
"This is the sorrow of the weak." Chen Mu sighed secretly.
If he could have Song Wuji's cultivation level, he would be afraid of nothing!
pity……
Chen Mu looked at the pavilion again, then walked into the cave and sat back on the cushion.
The person sat down, but his heart was uneasy.
This uncertainty made him extremely irritated.
"There are so many people in the Lengyuetan Dojo, it's impossible that I'm the only unlucky one?" Chen Mu murmured with lifeless eyes.
"Besides, there are the Seven Brothers of Wushan in this cave. If something really goes wrong, you can't come to me first, right?" Chen Mu tried to comfort himself.
"Even if I'm unwilling, there's nothing I can do." Dejection began to spread in my heart.
"Forget it, let it be fate."
After struggling for a long time, Chen Mu had no choice but to give up and close his eyes.
