"Now that it's done, hehe..."
His mind immediately turned, and the star-point threads drilled into the black ball Yuanfu.
hum!
There was a flash of white light, and a round bone ball that seemed real and illusory suddenly appeared in front of him.
Raise your right hand.
bass!
The pitch-black moon blade immediately revolved around him.
A strange pulling force wrapped around the palm of my hand, as if I was holding a whip.
With a slight flick of his right hand, the Moon Blade was like a whip sheath, cutting through the air with a bang, and easily drilled into the opposite stone wall and disappeared.
With a flick of his wrist, the moon blade returned to his side again.
After commanding the Moon Blade to fly around the secret room for a long time, Chen Mu withdrew his magic power and held the bone ball and the Moon Blade in front of him.
"Good baby!"

Chapter 283 Stacking Armor
As time went by, the weather became colder.
Ten days later, the yellow rice was harvested. Chen Mu looked at the five bags of yellow rice in front of the wooden house and sighed.
"If it were in the lower courtyard of Tongtian River, these five acres of land would be able to harvest more than 1,700 kilograms of yellow sprout rice."
"Look at me now, I should be thankful to have 600 kilograms!"
Old man Yang, who I hadn't seen for a long time, put down the half-man-high black pottery jar and said, "Be content."
As he spoke, he glanced around and pointed with his chin at the hillside behind Chen Mu.
"Your neighbor has more than eight acres of land, but he harvested less than 500 kilograms!"
Chen Mu couldn't help but gasp: "Then doesn't he have to pay the lower house nearly twenty white jade coins to deduct the rent?"
“Of course not. Half of the wages I earned from half a year of land reclamation are now paid back in one go. Tsk tsk…” Old man Yang shook his head and lifted the cotton cloth on the black pottery jar.
There was a rustling sound of insects crawling.
Chen Mu immediately took two steps back in disgust.
"You've seen it before, so why are you afraid?" Old Man Yang said unhappily, "These little darlings are so cute!"
Chen Mu shuddered: "Not everyone has your weird habit."
buzzing...
The gray swarm of insects was like shallow waves, rolling and rushing towards the yellow rice field. The withered yellow branches and leaves were quickly crushed and filled up.
"The harvest is not good this year. If you have any spare money, you should stock up some yellow sprout rice," advised old man Yang.
After thinking for a while, he whispered, "You can also intercept more water if you grow it yourself."
Chen Mu nodded secretly, agreeing with it deeply.
After returning from the land reclamation, he used spring water with added water for emergency irrigation, but only yielded more than 100 kilograms per acre.
Those who are completely left alone are probably in an even worse situation.
A poor harvest of yellow sprout rice is inevitable.
If the harvest is poor, the price may become higher.
……
evening.
Chen Mu sat under the window on the east side of the wooden house. In front of him were five gray cloth bags as high as his knees, each containing 100 kilograms of yellow sprout rice.
"Leave less."
After seeing off Old Man Yang, Chen Mu immediately went to Lengyuefang Grain Store.
The price of yellow sprout rice is still one hundred kilograms per piece of white jade, but each person can only buy two hundred kilograms.
With the 300 kilograms of blood that was intercepted, he only had 500 kilograms in his hands, which was enough to support him for three months at most.
"I feel uneasy."
……
The next day, Chen Mu came to Lengyuefang Grain Store again.
"Two pieces of white jade for one hundred kilograms?" Chen Mu raised his eyebrows. The price went up so quickly? !
"Give me 200 kilograms!" He didn't dare to hesitate, who knows if the price will continue to rise tomorrow.
"You can't buy it. You have already reached your purchase limit for this month." The guy in gray shorts handed the ID card to Chen Mu and waved his hand to send Chen Mu away.
"Isn't it just the purchase quantity that is limited?" Chen Mu was surprised.
"New rules. Each person can only buy 200 kilograms per month."
"Let's go quickly, the people behind us still need to buy." The guy in gray looked impatient.
Are all the guys in the grain store so arrogant now?
It's totally a seller's market.
Chen Mu, who was squeezed out of the grain store, felt a sinking feeling in his heart as he watched more and more people coming to buy grain.
We just harvested yellow sprout rice yesterday and it’s already so expensive.
There is still a year before next autumn harvest. How expensive will rice be in the second half of next year?
Half an hour later.
Chen Mu walked out of the butcher shop expressionlessly, carrying a piece of bacon made from the leg of an unknown exotic beast.
The price of exotic animal meat has also increased.
One white jade costs five jin. This bacon leg cost him nine white jades, while before he had only spent four at most.
"The House of Commons is still as dark as ever!" Chen Mu curled his lips.
This year, we are paying more for reclaiming land and opening up new mountains.
But now prices are getting higher and higher, and after a round of twists and turns, the white jade money that was distributed returned to the House of Commons.
"There is a great talent in the General Affairs Council!"
Although he was not short of money now, he was forced to eat expensive food and meat, which made him unwilling.
"I'm still not prepared enough."
When I first came to Pengyue Mountain, I should have stocked up on rice and meat!
"Who would have thought it would take half a year to open up this wasteland?" Chen Mu regretted.
He originally wanted to wait until the yellow sprout rice was harvested and then stockpile the yellow sprout rice he grew.
pity……
……
In the next few days, Chen Mu went to Lengyuefang many times.
Whether it is the Xiayuan rice shop and butcher shop, or the free market east of Lengyuefang, the prices of rice and meat have increased.
The good thing is that although it doubled, it didn't continue.
The bad thing is that although there is no increase now, no one can say for sure whether there will be no increase in the next six months.
"Who would have thought that after starting to seek the truth and cultivate immortality, eating would become a problem."
Chen Mu looked at the huge sum of more than 20,000 white jades in Wugui's bag. He felt relieved. At least he could still afford it.
"The arm cannot bend the thigh, there is no way, just practice with peace of mind."
The weather is getting cooler, the land needs to be cultivated, and the land reclamation and hunting have been completed. The entire Pengyue Mountain, like a forest that is gradually turning yellow and becoming quiet, is slowly becoming quiet.
Chen Mu also had enough time to gain experience.
……
A month later, the wooden porch in front of the wooden house.
Chen Mu was lying in a rocking chair with a soft animal skin blanket covering his knees.
In his left hand he held a cup of steaming warming tea, in his right hand he played with a hollow skull ball, his eyes fixed on the gray wall in the void.
“It’s great not to have to open up new land.”
After staying at home for a month, Chen Mu, apart from eating and resting, spent his free time staring at the gray walls to gain experience.
There was no movement in other items, but the Soul-Nourishing Spell that he had high hopes for had been successfully advanced.
Soul-raising spell: 103/10000/Level ;
The mind moves.
The Qi ban of Baili is activated.
Ten meters away, a fist-sized rock was suspended in mid-air.
The next moment, like a bullet fired from a gun, it tore through the air with a sharp whistle and rushed straight to Chen Mu's forehead.
Almost in the blink of an eye, he was three meters in front of him.
A wisp of black smoke emerged from the void, but Chen Mu took the initiative to restrain it.
The bright white light just appeared and was dispersed by Chen Mu.
The bone ball in the palm of the hand suddenly disappeared.
Inside the jade seed, the soul-nourishing talisman, which had turned into a small tangled mass, actively drilled into the Yuan Talisman.
boom!
