Tell me earlier!
Scared me!
Suddenly, he felt something in his heart and looked at Le Yangan with some concern: "Boss Le, you..."
"Ah, I am in this call-up."
Chen Mu was speechless.
……
In the small courtyard.
Chen Mu was lying in the rocking chair.
"According to Boss Le, the war between the Yin and Yang spirits is neither in the underworld nor in the world of the living. So where is it?"
"After all, I am too shallow to think clearly." Chen Mu shook his head.
"Luckily I just arrived here, otherwise if I were forcibly conscripted, my life and death would be in jeopardy."
"Besides, it has been at least ten years since I was forced to show the signs of coercion. Maybe I would have already left the underworld by then."
He was secretly happy when there was a knock on the door.
Chen Mu went forward to open the door and saw two middle-aged men, one tall and one short, dressed in black.
"But Chen Mu?" the short and fat white-faced man asked with a smile.
"It's me." Chen Mu nodded.
"Your name has been on the conscription order, and you will be sent to the battlefield as an auxiliary soldier soon." The tall and thin man in black had a cold face.
Chen Mu's face suddenly changed.
……
In a bungalow somewhere in the west of Jiugu City.
Niu Sanmiao chewed the braised meat in big mouthfuls.
"I guess those guys have already received the call-up order. Whoever that bastard was, he got his comeuppance now."
He took a sip of wine happily.
"Every time there is a call for conscription, there are always people who are afraid of death and don't want to go to the battlefield. There are countless cases of people's household registration being secretly changed."
"A few new ghosts, no money and no one, so they can only accept their fate. Haha!"
Niu Sanmiao was very happy, and all the depression he had felt for the past few days disappeared.
"If you feel unwilling to do so, then sneak out of the city, that would be even better!"
"Under the spirit-calling banner, it's useless no matter how far you run."
"After being forcibly recalled, he will definitely be thrown into the Phantom Flame Death Squad, where there is a real chance of death. Haha!"
Thinking of the happy things, Niu Sanmiao was excited, and the magical ghost patterns that had been condensed for a long time without any movement began to vibrate faintly!
He was just feeling excited when there was a knock on the door.
He walked out of the room in confusion, and when he opened the door he saw two men in black, one tall and one short.
"The city lord has ordered all Yin soldiers to report to the North Camp immediately and wait to go with the army to the battle."
Niu Sanmiao's expression changed immediately: "My Lords, I am from the city patrol camp, and I am only responsible for maintaining the stability of the city. How could I be asked to go to war?"
The short man in black smiled and said, "You don't have to go."
"Unless you want to go to the Phantom Flame Camp!" the tall man in black said coldly.
Niu Sanmiao's whole body suddenly stiffened.

Chapter 434 Paper Man
In Chen Mu's courtyard.
Shi Dechun shook his head and sighed: "What bad luck!"
"In the past, the Yin spirits had a ten-year safety period, but why is it that the whole city has to go to war here?"
Chen Mu's face didn't look good either.
All the people in Jiugu City were recruited to join the battle. It was a desperate gamble, and there might be great danger.
"No one escaped?"
"Where can you run to?"
"There are black winds and monsters in the dark wilderness. Without the protection of the city, you will die faster."
"And those old ghosts said that there are twelve soul-calling flags in Beidaying. Once they are waved, we have to obey the call and we can't run away at all." Shi Dechun said with a sad face.
Soul-calling banner? There is such a method?
Chen Mu's face became increasingly ugly.
No wonder the two men in black left yesterday with just a notification, without any harsh threats or intimidation.
Moreover, it seemed that the two men's perfunctory attitude vaguely encouraged him to escape.
Chen Mu's heart suddenly turned cold.
If I really run away, I'm afraid the end will be miserable.
……
The second floor is underground.
In a secret room in the basement of a bedroom.
Chen Mu sat cross-legged on a soft couch. There was an exquisite jade plate on the low table beside him. A faint spiritual energy slowly emerged in the secret room.
On the surrounding walls, five columns with intricate carvings stood. The Small Three Talents and the Light Law Ban slowly operated, covering the secret room while also locking the earth's spiritual energy firmly in the middle of the secret room.
"We have to strengthen our strength as soon as possible." Chen Mu felt melancholy.
With a thought, the bald boy in gray suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a young man in black clothes and tights, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
Chen Mu spread out the five fingers of his right hand, and a flash of blue-white lightning appeared.
He couldn't help but smile.
After several months of rest, the body that was corroded by the water of the Wangchuan River has completely recovered. Compared with the weak true form of the celestial demon, Chen Mu feels more at ease with his flesh and blood body full of magic power.
"Although a group of ghosts were lost, the Five Ghosts Bag is intact and the belongings inside are preserved."
"Although there is damage due to some unintentional mistakes, if you recite more soul-nourishing spells, it will recover soon."
"Everything is normal inside the jade seed, and there is no irreversible change."
"What a blessing!"
After a quick inspection, Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Practice the method of concentrating the mind first. The more mana the better!"
"After that, I will practice Kuishui Yin Lei. If I really get into trouble, I will use some thunder magic to shock these ghosts!"
Crack!
The underground secret room was suddenly filled with violent lightning.
……
Yupinxuan.
"Soul-calling flag?"
"Jigu City does have this magical instrument that can capture souls and spirits."
"Look at that red lantern." Le Yang'an smiled and pointed to the door.
"That thing can resist the dark wind of the underworld and can scare away wild monsters, but it can also absorb your energy and mark you."
“And any evil spirit whose energy is absorbed by it will be unable to escape the summons of the soul-summoning flag.” Le Yangan said calmly.
So, when Niu Sanmiao picked him up and brought him back to Jiugu City, he had already passively become a member of Jiugu City?
Chen Mu was speechless.
"No one resisted?" He believed that no one liked to be controlled by others.
"Why do you think the ghosts in Jiugu City want to complete the cultivation of magical ghost patterns so much?" Le Yangan shrugged.
Can the magical ghost pattern escape the summons of the soul-summoning banner?
Chen Mu was helpless: "It seems that I still have to continue practicing the "Flying Flame Sutra"."
"Ordinary ghosts can only chant the Dew-Gathering Spell, why do we have to bring them to the battlefield?" He was a little annoyed.
“Isn’t knowing the Dew Gathering Spell enough?” Le Yang’an chuckled.
"A living spiritual field? Mobile food supplies?" Chen Mu reacted.
"There is also battlefield cleaning and camp construction." Le Yang'an had obviously done some inquiries in advance.
"Of course, in most cases, auxiliary soldiers are relatively safe, so you don't have to worry too much."
"Is it really that safe? What are those people outside doing?" Chen Mu didn't believe it and pointed his chin at the increasingly bustling flow of people on the street outside.
Le Yangan shrugged: "The battlefield is changing rapidly, no one can guarantee safety all the time, it is always better to be prepared."
"Besides, even when dealing with corpses, there will always be a few that are not completely dead." Le Yang'an winked at Chen Mu.
Chen Mu couldn't help but baring his teeth.
"Of course, if Brother Chen feels unsafe, I recommend that you buy a few paper figures to ensure your safety." Le Yang'an, who had always been calm and gentle, showed a rare look of excitement when he talked about paper figures.
Chen Mu couldn't help but be surprised.
What is a paper figure? How could it make the usually calm Boss Le show such emotion?
Then he saw Le Yangan turned around impatiently and opened a person-high wooden cabinet door behind him with pride.
