impossible!
Among all the monks in the world, there is no one who does not strive for wealth and Dharma.
Those people would not be content with being ordinary like me.
"Alas... No one is worry-free!" Chen Mu sighed.
"I can only use the Heart Charm to investigate from time to time."
No matter whether they are good or bad, he cannot force them to do anything.
Even if you intervene, few people will not listen.
Just like Shang Huan’s reading comprehension, which seemed to be learned from monsters.
Just like when they were in the lower courtyard of Tongtian River, the six brothers and sisters of Wushan knew that he didn't like it and knew that they could communicate with each other through the same heart spell, but they still dared to do things to oppress others behind his back.
"If it really comes to an emergency, in order to avoid being implicated, I have to..." Chen Mu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
He has the Heart Lock and the nearly perfect Ninth-Level Heart Spell.
If you want to keep your identity secret, humph...

Chapter 354: Redemption
Dongling is becoming increasingly chaotic, and it is said that there are traps everywhere around Liulian Mountain.
The monks of Dongling set up poisonous insects and poisonous miasma, constantly launching sneak attacks and looting, almost isolating Liulian Mountain.
If there had not been no powerful figure leading Dongling, Liulian Mountain might have been captured.
In contrast, Yingchou Cliff was unexpectedly peaceful and tranquil.
Moreover, after the transport team moved away from Liulian Mountain, the attacks they encountered became less and less frequent.
Even the unscrupulous shopkeepers of Hongcaotang have started to lower their prices on their own initiative.
……
A month later.
The northern area of the Fangshi Mountain Village under the Yingchou Cliff.
Listening to the clanging sound of chopping meat beside his ears, Chen Mu stared at the fresh meat and exotic animal meat on the chopping board in a daze.
Shang Huan and the six brothers and sisters of Wushan got together, using the essence of grains to heal wounds, explore talismans, and do business with the people of Dongling Mountain.
By bartering, he obtained a large number of pigs, rabbits, deer-horned black sheep and other supplies that Yingchou Cliff urgently needed, and his business was booming for a while.
Even the exotic beast meat that Chen Mu used to make the Huiyuan Soup every day was obtained through Shang Huan's channels.
"It's even harder to stop the other party now." Chen Mu sighed.
Eaters have short mouths.
His demand for exotic animal meat actually became one of the reasons that prompted Shang Huan to continue smuggling.
Chen Mu smiled bitterly.
"Fortunately, Shang Huan was careful enough and nothing went wrong."
"And it seems that no one knows that Shang Huan is the only one doing this business. As long as we are careful, there will probably be no problem." Chen Mu felt relieved.
After paying forty-five white jades and carrying three hundred kilograms of deer antlers and black mutton, Chen Mu left the North District.
Instead of returning to the mountain immediately as usual, he strolled to the Embroidered Clothes Pavilion in the South District.
The shopkeeper of the Yingchouya Embroidered Clothes Pavilion branch was a middle-aged woman in red.
When she saw Chen Mu, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Master Chen, you came at the right time."
"Just this morning, the robe you ordered was delivered from the Embroidered Clothing Pavilion."
As he said this, he took out a cloth package from under the counter and opened it.
"The whole set of inner garment, outer garment, belt and brocade boots are all woven from star sand silver silk. It keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer, and is tough and durable..." the shopkeeper in red explained incessantly.
Chen Mu casually pulled at the grey double-breasted suit, his eyes showing excitement and a hint of regret.
The star sand silver thread is strong yet resilient, and will not break even if pulled several times, making it very suitable for performing the Five Ghosts Possession.
But this thing is expensive.
A month ago, Chen Mu unexpectedly received a white jade thank-you gift from three apprentices. He was so happy that he spent it the next day.
Now that he had the clothes, Chen Mu was excited but also felt a little regretful.
What a loser! It's just 1,500 pieces of white jade, not even as expensive as a bottle of Peiyuan Dan. Why should I regret it?
"Can I give you a discount?" Chen Mu asked seriously.
"Master Chen, this is already the lowest price I can offer. The materials are expensive, and we need to ask the senior brother from the Hundred Crafts Hall to use a secret method to bless it. We really can't go any cheaper." The red-clothed woman looked embarrassed, and then flattered, "You are an alchemist. If you make a few more furnaces of pills, you will earn back the money soon."
Indeed, with my own alchemy skills, wouldn't it be just a matter of making more Bigu Pills?
Chen Mu was flattered by the compliments, and he waved his hand generously and said, "If you don't want a discount, then don't give me one. Then I'll just give you eight or ten sets of clothes to change into."
The woman in red twitched her lips.
Aren’t people saying that alchemists are straightforward people with white jade around their waists? How could this guy be so stingy!
Chen Mu bargained calmly.
The main reason is that I feel sad. If I don’t order any gifts, I will feel like I’m losing out.
……
Night, underground secret room.
Five ghosts possessed!
A muffled shout.
Chen Mu quickly transformed into a muscular man over four meters tall.
A grey robe with tiny silver dots is enlarged in the same proportion.
Wearing it now, it's still a little loose.
"nice one!"
He reached out and grabbed it, and it was surprisingly quite tough.
Even if he moves in giant form, the clothes are not easily damaged.
"It's worth it!"
Chen Mu walked around the secret room a few more times, and his huge body moved, but there was no sound.
The black smoke that was originally swirling around the body now glowed dark red, as if the charcoal inside had not yet been completely burned out.
As he brushed past the rock wall, the wall was instantly scorched red with a thought.
If you use a little more force, you might even melt the rock wall!
"Stronger." Chen Mu was delighted.
Huangquan's general principles condensed his spiritual awareness, his physical fitness was gradually transformed and strengthened, and the power of the five ghosts' possession was repeatedly excavated.
"I don't know where this Five Ghost Bag came from."
At first, I thought it was just an evil magic weapon. But as the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains Curse became more and more powerful, the Five Ghosts became more and more powerful.
"It seems that the Thousand Mountains Sutra also has a history." Chen Mu thought thoughtfully.
"Wait until the acupoint is condensed."
By then, when I have some strength and free time, maybe I can explore it.
As I was thinking about it, something suddenly occurred to me.
"Shang Huan? Why did this guy think of contacting me?"
Outside the jade, in the mist, the jade belonging to Shang Huan was sparkling and vibrating slightly.
……
In the southwest corner of the mountain, inside a bamboo building in a mountain village.
Shang Huan and Wushan's six brothers and sisters sat together.
"Are you sure that Mr. Gongsun will escort us?" Ai Ji asked doubtfully.
Since coming to Yuquan Mountain, Chen Mu has never contacted the six brothers and sisters of Wushan.
Although it was a bit discouraging, they understood that Chen Mu really didn't care about them, and even wanted to avoid them.
"Who would have a problem with Bai Yu?" Shang Huan patted the wooden box in front of him, not caring at all.
The six Wushan brothers and sisters looked at each other.
It seems that it is really possible!
The other party was the one who dared to lend money at high interest rates even to the Dean Song Wuji, so he must be fond of white jade money.
"The bigger the business, the more jealous people will be. Even if Mr. Gongsun is afraid of trouble, isn't there still the Master of Dreams?" Shang Huan looked confident.
Do you still want to drag the dream-making master Lu Zhishen into this?
Even the dream maker is afraid of trouble!
Chen Mu's face turned dark as he had just activated his synesthesia.
Noticing the connection, Shang Huan immediately put on a smile that was three parts respectful, three parts seeking credit, and four parts flattering, and said with pride: "Mr. Gongsun, I'm here to give you a dividend!"
Then he opened the wooden box in front of him, and a pile of white jade came into view.
Chen Mu took a breath of cold air.
There must be at least eight or nine thousand white jades in this wooden box.
He has a total of more than 36,000 white jades on him, which is almost a quarter of his wealth!
