Chapter 384 Mutation

Chen Mu entrusted Jia Tian to find a replacement, and thought it would take a long time.

But only three days later, Jia Tian appeared in front of him with a strong man.

The man looked rough, but his temperament was gentle and soft. Moreover, in the secular Daqian, he had done work such as protecting and sorting out documents and classics. Being a small proofreader was a piece of cake.

After confirming the handover tomorrow, the strong man said goodbye and left. His behavior was decent and polite, which was quite a contrast compared to his strong body.

Chen Mu looked at Jia Tian unexpectedly: "It's hard for you to find such a suitable talent so soon."

"To work for my senior brother, of course I have to go all out and work harder!" Jia Tian said righteously.

Chen Mu didn't say anything, just squinted at Jia Tian's performance.

"Hehe! I have to trouble my senior brother to refine a few more furnaces of Tongxi Baima Dan." As he said, Jia Tian lightly tapped his wrist mustard talisman, and a brown square wooden box emerged.

He held it in both hands and placed it on the low table beside Chen Mu, then opened it with a smile and showed it to Chen Mu.

A box full of warm white jade appeared in front of him.

Chen Mu raised his eyebrows: "Is Tongxi Baima Dan popular?"

There are at least six or seven hundred white jade coins in this box.

"It's mainly because the senior brothers in the upper house are not short of money." Jia Tian smiled.

Chen Mu suddenly realized.

I didn't expect that so many disciples from the upper house would come to Dongling Wushan. It seems that the upper house is indeed more competitive.

"Senior brother, what do you think..."

"I am only responsible for refining the pill, and I can't let others know that it was me who refined the pill." Chen Mu put forward conditions.

Baima Dan can obviously make a lot of money. But if the profit is big, there will be trouble behind it. He needs someone to stand in front.

"Then you have to give me some leniency in the split." Jia Tian agreed without any care, and immediately started bargaining.

Chen Mu looked at him in surprise.

Isn't this little bald head afraid of potential risks?

"I haven't been the young prince for so many years in vain. It's just a few tricks to cover up my tracks. It's not difficult." Jia Tian rubbed his bald head and showed a smug smile.

Chen Mu couldn't help laughing.

Jia Tian has only been in Dongling for two or three years. At the beginning, he was very poor, even worse than those farmers from Daqian.

Now he has traded in Wushan and has his own business store.

Thinking about this guy's history of making a fortune, Chen Mu had to admit that he was indeed extraordinary.

"Collect the materials as soon as possible."

"I can't stay in Dongling for long."

"How much you can earn this time depends on how many materials you can find for me to make pills."

...

Jia Tian was obviously prepared.

The next day, he sent Chen Mu ten gas storage gourds full of poisonous miasma from Wuyan Mountain.

A bamboo basket of Dilingtong rhinoceros horns was also sent. Chen Mu suspected that all the tong rhinoceros horns in Wuyan Mountain were bought by him.

"I have already taken care of the handover of the proofreader's job at the General Affairs Office."

"I will take care of your daily food purchases."

"I have also left people at Yuquan Mountain to keep an eye on the cloud bat flying boat, so they will not delay your trip to the upper court."

"As long as Brother makes the pills, we will definitely make a lot of money!"

Jia Tian rubbed his hands: "Brother, you see..."

"You are really thoughtful." Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh.

The world has changed, but the shape of this money-making man has not changed much.

First, he will ask about your well-being in every possible way, and then he will start to paint a pie in the sky for you.

He almost thought he had traveled back to his previous life, and felt like a social animal worker again.

Without waiting for Chen Mu to react, Jia Tian held up a wooden box and handed it to him.

"This is the deposit, one thousand white jades, Brother?"

What, you can't paint a pie, and you still want to throw money at me?

Who are you looking down on!

Chen Mu gritted his teeth and decided to... go and make the elixir.

Well, I don't care about money, I just think those white jades are beautiful.

...

"Brother, do you want to contact the Wushan brothers and sisters to come here to protect your safety." Jia Tian hesitated for a while and spoke.

"Why, what's the matter with the mountain recently?" Chen Mu was surprised.

"It's not the Sun family's fault." Jia Tian was dissatisfied.

"The Sun family has lost someone again, and they are arresting people everywhere like crazy."

"There are people secretly fanning the flames, and killing and stealing treasures are becoming more and more frequent."

"You are alone here to make elixir, if there is a chance..."

Hey, this chance has already happened, and the person who came is not ordinary, the head of a branch of the Sun family.

Chen Mu's expression did not change, but he didn't want to talk more. Glancing at Jia Tian, ​​he smiled and teased: "By the way, are you worried about my safety or the Hundred Miasma Pill?"

"Almost, it's almost the same." Jia Tian smiled.

Ha!

Chen Mu retracted his gaze, but was curious about another thing: "Are you familiar with the six brothers and sisters of Wushan?"

"Dongling is quite wild. When the caravan travels among the five mountains, it will always encounter danger." Jia Tian explained: "Brother Lu and his brothers and sisters are very powerful. Although the price is a bit high, they have indeed helped me solve a lot of troubles."

Chen Mu suddenly realized.

"How about letting them come?" Jia Tian recommended again.

"They can come, but they don't have to protect me." Chen Mu waved his hand to refuse.

It's just right for them to perform the secret method of copying the heart spell.

As for danger...

Even if there is another person with the strength of Sun Wujiu, he will not be in danger.

"Unless the person is Sun Jian."

"Hehe, it is said that the old ghost is running around like a headless fly, and he can't come to me in a short time."

Besides, he will leave Dongling in a few days, and no matter how chaotic it is, it has nothing to do with him.

Who would embarrass a former proofreader who is like a small transparent person?

Thinking of this, Chen Mu felt relieved, and he fell back and lay comfortably in the rocking chair.

…

A few days later at night.

The night sky was as clear as if it had been washed by water.

The bright moonlight sprinkled down, and most of the floor on the porch was illuminated by a fluorescent white.

Chen Mu finished his practice that day, crawled out from the ground, and huddled in the rocking chair in front of the door, bathing half of his body in the moonlight.

As usual, he held a cup of green tea Huiyuan soup, tilted his head and looked at the sky: "The night sky of this world is still beautiful."

"I don't know how far these stars in the sky are."

He had read a miscellaneous book "The Strange Stories of Baiyi Daozu" in the Sutra Pavilion.

It is said that when the world was first created, demons invaded. Daozu Baiyi could not bear the suffering of all living beings, so he waved his hand to make billions of stars in the sky, hanging in the sky, guarding the world, and preventing the demons from making trouble.

"It's so mysterious, I don't know if it's true or not."

This world can really cultivate immortals and become ancestors, and myths and strange stories may be true records.

"I really hope to fly up and take a look." Chen Mu looked at the sky with fascination.

But as he looked, he found that a dark cloud suddenly appeared, covering the sky and the sun.

"Is there wind and rain?"

"That's not right, isn't it flying too fast?"

This made him think of the Yingchou Cliff Rebellion.

Just as his thoughts turned, the dark cloud had already come to the top of his head, blocking the starlight and moonlight, and the Wuyan Mountain suddenly became dark.

The next moment, the dark sky suddenly shone brightly. Countless dark red huge fireballs rushed out from the dark clouds. Then they fell on Wuyan Mountain like a meteorite from the sky.

"Someone attacked the mountain!"

Chen Mu jumped up, and the five ghost paper figures swooped into the room.

Black smoke billowed, as if it had been practiced countless times, and in a blink of an eye, it swallowed the useful objects into the Five Ghosts Bag.

At this time, an invisible force suddenly burst out from the bottom of the Mist Mountain.

Chen Mu felt as if an invisible brush swept across his body from bottom to top in an instant, and rushed into the sky. It seemed to turn into an invisible umbrella, successfully blocking the fireball outside.

"Mountain protection ban? Good job!" Chen Mu was excited.

But he didn't wait long for him to be happy.

A dull roar exploded from the ground.

The whole earth shook violently, and the house was shaken to the ground.

And with the vibration, the invisible umbrella that originally blocked the fireball suddenly disappeared.

The fireball easily fell into the Mist Mountain.

The next moment, the whole mountain seemed to glow, emitting a red light.

The continuous explosions that followed made Chen Mu even feel deaf for a moment!

"It's over!"
