"Excuse me, give me another two hundred of this Forget River Stone." Chen Mu pushed the ghost face bronze plate back and said with a smile.
"How many?"
"two hundred!"
"Are you going to take this thing to take a shower?" The young man in black, who had been calm and composed until now, couldn't help but raise his voice.
Hey!
guess what?
I really want to take this thing to the shower!
A smile appeared on Chen Mu's face.
……
In the center of Haiying, deep in a tall stone hall, Lan Zhang sat lazily on a gray-white stone chair.
He was wearing a loose white shirt and had loose hair. His elbow was resting on the armrest, and his right fist was casually supporting the right side of his face.
His narrow eyes, with distinct red and white features, stared intently at the dividing line between light and shadow at the door.
A tall, thin figure dressed in black walked slowly into the room in the dim light.
The other person walked to the stone table, put his hands in his wide sleeves, and stared down at Lan Zhang.
"You broke away from the ghost soldiers and broke into the water palace alone to attack the Water Ape King. General Lan, you are really brave." The man in black sneered.
"Don't you know that once the core of the Water Palace is destroyed and the Water Ape King is killed, the Red-Eyed Water Ape tribe will immediately fall apart and scatter in all directions?"
"We are here to capture enough Red-eyed Water Apes, not to let you show off your personal bravery!" the man in black said coldly.
Lan Zhang's eyes turned slightly, and his blood-red pupils glanced at the tall and thin man in black. His voice was calm and cold: "Shen Yan."
"General Lan, what can I do for you?" The black-clothed man Shen Yan looked straight into Lan Zhang's eyes without changing his expression.
"You're blocking my light."
"You..." The man in black's face changed.
He was about to open his mouth to scold, but when he met Lan Zhang's calm, bloodshot eyes, he couldn't help but tense up all over, and involuntarily moved his feet and stood next to the stone table.
Lan Zhang's blood-red eyes slowly turned around and stared at the light and shadow at the door again.
Shen Yan in black's chest suddenly heaved violently. After a long time, he took a deep breath, tried to suppress his anger and continued to persuade.
"General Lan, you are cultivating the aquatic ape form."
"Only if you kill enough red-eyed water apes and perfect the spiritual power on the origin stone tablet, will your Yin Shen Dharma Image have a chance to reach its peak."
"The most important thing is that this action concerns the city lord's avenue. If we disobey the order and mess things up, the entire Haizi Camp will be doomed."
"By then, I'm afraid that the soul-summoning flag will drain away my essence." Shen Yan said with a cold face.
"Prepare the altar for summoning souls within three days." Lan Zhang said calmly.
"You want to draw on the power of the Yin spirit? You...you want to cause trouble for that Water Ape King?!" Shen Yan's face suddenly became angry.
Lan Zhang rolled his eyes and glanced at the other person.
Shen Yan's whole body suddenly stiffened.
"Okay, okay! I'll go prepare the altar!" He gritted his teeth and said, "But it is my duty. I will record and report everything that happens in this Haizi Camp."
"It's up to you to decide what to do next!" Shen Yan glared at Lan Zhang fiercely and quickly left the stone hall.
The stone hall returned to silence again.
"The apex? A bigger red-haired monkey? Haha..." Lan Zhang lightly held the rest with his left index finger and chuckled playfully.
"Are you sure you want to practice blood nerves? Aren't you afraid of going crazy?" A series of clear and overlapping children's voices suddenly sounded in the empty stone hall.
hum!
In the shadows on the left side of the room, a dense mass of eyes suddenly appeared.
On the ground, walls, and ceiling, strange eyes almost occupied half of the room. Some were big, some were small, and they opened and closed, as if each had its own consciousness.
"Isn't this what you wanted?"
Lan Zhang was still sitting lazily on the stone chair, staring at the changing light and shadow at the door, not even looking at the weird eyes in the room.
"We provide secret methods, we provide resources, we just equally welcome all outsiders to become one of us." The overlapping clear children's voices were calm in tone.
"Yes, yes, you help me grow stronger, you wait for me to go crazy, and then you can swallow me into your stomach in one bite?" Lan Zhang chuckled.
"That's right!" Countless innocent children's voices cheered at the same time, their eyes blinked continuously, filled with excitement.
"Heh!" Lan Zhang's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a slightly crazy smile.
"Then come on!"

Chapter 444 Crazy
Two days later, late at night.
The barracks of the Yanxing tribe’s third flag is located in an underground secret room that has been expanded several times.
呲......
Thick white fog spread violently in all directions, and the white lanterns hanging high on the wall were swaying left and right in the strong wind.
After a while, the white mist dissipated. Chen Mu switched to his true form, took out the soft couch, and plopped down on it. The remaining memory of the severe pain made him tremble all over.
He flipped his right hand, and a handful of jade dew beads emerged. He then tremblingly performed the Soul-Recovering Essence Technique. The warm essence circulated, and the trembling of his whole body finally subsided a little.
After a long while, he felt a sense of fullness in the secret acupoint between his eyebrows. He then breathed a sigh of relief and stopped collecting his soul and returning to his original state.
"No wonder no one is interested in the Flying Flame Sutra. Every time I practice it it feels like torture. Only a crazy person would like to practice it." Chen Mu grinned.
He had practiced numerous secret techniques over the years, but the Feiyan Sutra was the worst. Fortunately, he had enough experience, otherwise he wouldn't have tried so hard.
With a thought, a gray wall emerged and he looked closely at one of the columns.
Huangquan Yin: 8593/10000; first level;
"It's happening so fast. In just one more day, Huangquan Yin will be able to enter a new stage." Chen Mu couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
On the palm of his right hand, the originally messy silver thread pattern had now completely transformed into a smooth hollow circle.
With the infusion of Yin spirit's divine power, a ball of Forgetful River water as big as a human head slowly emerged in the palm of his hand.
"Once I have gained enough experience at the second level, I should be able to summon a cauldron of water from the Forgotten River."
"If I practice the Flying Flame Sutra a few more times to strengthen my origin, it won't be long before I can meet all the conditions for entering the Yellow Springs Department." Chen Mu was excited.
But when he saw the white jade box on the couch, he couldn't help but sigh: "It would be better if the jade dew was consumed less."
He was practicing Feiyan Sutra and Huangquan Yin at the same time, and any slight damage would consume a large amount of his essence. He had to use a large amount of Jade Dew Beads to strengthen his foundation.
The jade dew beads in the white jade box were accumulated by him when he was in Jiugu City. The box was originally full, but now only half is left.
"Go to the Armaments Department to buy Jade Dew Pearls?"
“It always feels a bit uneconomical.”
"Practice by myself?" He thought about it for a moment and shook his head.
“It takes too much energy and time.”
“If I use the Soul-Surrendering Technique on the water apes…” Chen Mu’s lips curled up slightly, and the piles of red-eyed water apes on the battlefield appeared in his mind.
"wonderful!"
……
The next day.
Accompanied by the thunder-like sound of drums, the Yin soldiers of the Hai Camp set out again.
Chen Mu thought that this would be a long and fierce battle, but before noon, the ghost soldiers returned.
Battlefield by the bloody river.
The corpses of red-eyed water apes were scattered all over the river bank, and the corpses of giant ghost soldiers with various appearances were also uncommon.
"I don't know who will win or lose. I don't understand." Shi Dechun looked puzzled and followed Chen Mu.
"If you don't understand, don't look at it. Go and move the water ape." Chen Mu waved his hand to drive them away.
After saying that, he ran to the edge of the area where there were fewer people and threw the water ape onto the flame chariot.
When he was out of sight, Chen Mu's figure flashed and he disappeared underground. After switching back to his true form, he hid underground.
He quietly urged the steel fingers to soften the soil, stretched out his hand and pulled, and a three to five meter tall water ape whooshed into the ground.
When the small frost-reducing technique was used, the warm water ape's body quickly cooled down and was covered with white frost in just a few breaths.
The Five Ghosts Moving Mountain was used, and the frozen water ape was quietly sent into the Five Ghosts Bag.
"So what if I know the outcome? This is not something a little Yin Ling like me can control."
"Instead of thinking too much, it's better to concentrate on gaining Huangquan Yin experience."
"Once we enter the Huangquan tribe, hiding in the camp is safer than running outside every day."
……
Late night
Underground secret room.
Chen Mu's ghost body was burned again. He quickly switched back to his real body and took out a three-meter-tall dead ape covered with frost. He took a deep breath and suddenly activated the Soul Resurrection Technique.
The scarlet light was drawn out from the water ape's body, penetrated into his hands and disappeared.
The sturdy water ape shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and rich essence poured into the secret acupoint between the eyebrows, and the damaged body of the Yin spirit began to recover rapidly.
Soon, a feeling of fullness came from the secret orifice, and the tall ape became as dry as skin and bones.
"It works!" Chen Mu couldn't help but clench his fist.
Chen Mu casually performed the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains Technique and swallowed the dried water ape. He then looked at the space inside the Five Ghosts Bag.
