Everyone in the room shook their heads woodenly at the same time: "No, no, no!"
Chen Mu immediately nodded with satisfaction.
Aren’t the porters coming soon?
Just as I was feeling secretly proud of myself, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Actually, it's not impossible to pay a little toll."
The crowd who had been expressionless just now suddenly came to their senses and started talking again.
The smile on Chen Mu's face suddenly froze.
He quickly stared at the group of old ghosts and found that they all looked normal, as if the scene of being controlled just now was just a dream.
He turned to look at Shi Dechun again, but the other party still had a blank expression and the effect of confusing him was still obvious.
Chen Musong took a breath and shook his head helplessly.
Although no one noticed what was unusual just now, the idea of controlling these guys to act as porters was obviously no longer feasible.
"Tsk! I thought this ability to confuse the gods was a great magical power, but I didn't expect it to be ineffective against old ghosts."
He was afraid of being feared by others and didn't dare to use it.
Now, Chen Mu curled his lips.
"At most, we can only bully some newborn ghosts."
……
Time passed, the sky turned blood red, the sun rose and set, and in the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
Somewhere underground in the wilderness, Chen Mu sat cross-legged in a temporary underground space. Behind him stood fifteen or sixteen men in black, each with a blank expression on their faces.
Including the old man Shi who was leading the group, these were the newly born ghosts who had traveled with him to Jiugu City.
Maybe because they were all admitted at the same time, a small portion of them were assigned to the third flag of the B group. Otherwise, he would not have been able to gather this team of porters.
Chen Mu has now returned to his flesh and blood body, and most of his mind is connected to the Zhuyu magic sword. Utilizing the visual sharing and ultra-long-distance control features of the traction method, he allows the flying sword to hide in the clouds and remotely track each of the Flame Flags.
Once the other party was robbed, he would immediately take action.
Through the perspective of the magic sword, Chen Mu couldn't help but mutter as he watched the carts of water ape corpses being transported like ants moving house.
"The battlefield location changes every day, but the enemy is always the Red-Eyed Water Ape."
"I don't know where this Heaven Beyond Heaven is. Why are there so many red-haired monkeys? It feels like we can never kill them all."
"The Jigu City's Yin soldiers are also strange. They only kill enemies every day but don't occupy any territory. Rather than attacking the city, it seems like they are deliberately hunting water monkeys."
Just as he was daydreaming, a group of people suddenly appeared diagonally behind the transport team in Fa Jian's sight.
Chen Mu's mouth curled up.
Come to life!
……
In the wilderness.
A group of more than thirty tall, strong and fierce-looking men suddenly appeared.
"I don't think I need to introduce myself in detail." Hong Xiu said with a smile.
He looked to be in his forties, wearing a red suit with a black leather armor on his upper body. At this moment, he stood in front of the Yanxing convoy of 70 to 80 people, with a calm expression.
"Brother Hong, let's do as you agreed before, 30%, and we'll pay it." A round-faced fat man approached quickly with a flattering smile.
Hong Xiu nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand slightly. More than 30 fierce and strong men behind him immediately stepped forward.
In a short while, the flame-moving vehicle operated by more than 30 people was full.
"Look?" The fat man rubbed his hands.
Hong Xiu nodded slightly and grabbed the man's arm: "Since everyone is so abiding by the rules, let's follow the rules."
Then he quietly approached and whispered, "I'll have someone wait at the door later. Don't forget to get your share."
The chubby man was immediately surprised. He bowed and thanked them in a low voice, then asked everyone to leave quickly.
Hong Xiu couldn't help but smile as he watched the convoy going further and further away.
A square-faced burly man came forward cheerfully and said, "Is this the third convoy?"
"Fei Yong has to find the team by himself every time, but we take the initiative to come to them. In the end, it must be the eldest brother who is smart!"
Hong Xiu couldn't help but chuckle: "Everyone in the world is here for profit."
"I am willing to share the profits, so the leader will naturally be willing to cooperate with me."
"Robbery is too arrogant. Fei Yong is so arrogant. Sooner or later he will suffer."
The square-faced sturdy man chuckled when he heard this: "Brother, that's a good idea. Fei Yong really got into trouble a few days ago."
"Half of the goods were stolen, and the paper figurines and terracotta warriors were all smashed to pieces."
"It was kept secret before, but it was only in the past two days that the news came out and spread like wildfire."
Hong Xiu immediately raised his eyebrows: "Look, what did I say? It's good to be low-key."
"Otherwise, why did that person choose to rob him instead of us?"
Just as he finished speaking, a large ball of black wind suddenly emerged from the ground, and more than thirty strong men were thrown into the sky.
Hong Xiu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he flipped his right hand, and a fist-sized clay figurine of an armored general appeared.
The Yin spirit's divine power surged, and the clay sculpture suddenly expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But the next moment, an invisible force suddenly attacked, and the terracotta warrior that had just been thrown out was violently taken away.
After landing, it was like a stone falling into the water, plopped into the ground and disappeared.
And in his perception, it was rapidly sinking, and in the blink of an eye, the terracotta ghost was completely lost because it was too far away from the divine power.
Then a powerful force came over him, and Hong Xiu was knocked to the ground. No matter how he tried to mobilize the power of the Yin spirit, he couldn't move at all.
Met a tough guy!
Hong Xiu lay on the ground, his heart trembling.
"Fifty percent of the things belong to me, is that a problem?" Chen Mu emerged from the ground and began to negotiate the terms skillfully.
Hong Xiu couldn't help but grit his teeth.
I was pinned to the ground, how could there be any problem? How dare I ask any question?!
"Since you have taken a fancy to these water monkeys, just take them all. Just consider it as me making friends." He shouted with a generous look on his face, but he was thinking in his heart that this matter was not over yet.
With a roll of his eyes, he spoke again: "My friend is very powerful, why don't we join forces and make a fortune together."
Chen Mu suddenly raised his eyebrows.
Before, those who were the targets of the bullying either cursed at me or gnashed their teeth and wanted to retaliate, but this guy’s first reaction was to seek cooperation with me?
Talent!
such a pity……
"I'm a good person. I will never do this kind of highway robbery!" Chen Mu refused righteously.
Hong Xiu: “…”
Listen to what the hell you are saying!
You can't do highway robbery? Then what are you doing now?
Are you doing justice? !
Hong Xiu almost got his nose crooked from anger.
"I'm letting you go now, but don't cause any trouble, otherwise you'll be in trouble." Seeing that everyone had surrendered, Chen Mu carefully removed the Hundred Miles Qi Ban.
Hong Xiu suppressed his anger and got up from the ground. He tidied up his messy clothes and pretended to be calm and said, "Friend, since we can't cooperate, I wonder if we can make a deal."
"There are many people doing the same business as me. As long as you can let my team go in the future, I will provide you with some accurate information about other people."
"Look..."
Is there such a good thing? !
Chen Mu was delighted and couldn't help but look at the guy in front of him with admiration.
This guy can avoid his own losses and also make money from his peers. His brain is really quick.
"It's not impossible." He stroked his chin and thought.
It is indeed a bit troublesome to keep watch with a flying sword by yourself. If someone provides information and then directly blocks the door, it will be much easier.
Seeing Chen Mu's intention, Hong Xiu couldn't help but smile.
Give this guy the real news a few times first, and once he gains his trust, hehe!
He immediately clasped his hands together with a sincere look on his face and said, "What's your name, friend? How can I provide you with information in the future?"
Chen Mu was about to speak, but his heart was moved.
The last time he pretended to be Fei Yong, he still remembered the accident. He immediately became cautious and asked instead of answering: "Tell me your name first."
Hong Xiu remained calm on the surface, but his mind was full of thoughts. Since he wanted to trick this guy, he couldn't tell him his real name.
He made a decision in an instant: "I am Niu Chengzong of Jiasan Banner. What is your name, my friend?"
"Oh, I'm Hong Xiu from the Bingwu Banner. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Chen Mu looked calm.
Hong Xiu: “…”
This guy actually used my name to do bad things?
Oh no, I’ve become a substitute!
……
In the evening, at the B3 Flag Camp.
Chen Mu returned with Shi Dechun and others.
With red light flashing in their eyes, the experience of taking a long detour and carrying the water ape with difficulty slowly emerged in everyone's mind.
