Chapter 401: Capture

Chen Mu stared at the five little paper figures with a serious face.

"Is that thing dangerous?"

The five little paper figures shook their heads in unison.

"Will it show up again?"

The little paper man continued to shake his head.

"What else can you do besides shaking your head?!"

The little paper man was still shaking his head.

Depend on!

I was really confused by that thing just now.

The Five Ghost Paper Man is at best somewhat spiritual, like an ignorant naughty boy who cannot communicate at all.

Chen Mu looked at his still cold right hand.

"What the hell is that?"

"Is it one person or a group of them?"

"Did it cause the yellow sprout rice to wither?"

After coming to Jilong Mountain for a year, he had never seen the long snake-like white smoke with a human face. Now that the mountain is infected with blight, that thing just happens to appear. This had to make Chen Mu wonder if there was any connection between the two.

And it was so weird that the thing disappeared.

Not invisible, nor flying away quickly, but disappearing into thin air.

"Some kind of void escape method? Breaking the boundary and moving?"

"If he suddenly appears behind me and takes a bite of my head..."

Chen Mu felt uneasy.

I lay on the bed tossing and turning all night, afraid that the thing would suddenly appear.

It wasn't until the sun rose, the mist in the mountains steamed, and people appeared under the mountains that he breathed a sigh of relief and gradually felt at ease.

…

At noon, Song Wuji and Mo Wuzhou came to Chaoyang Mountain Lingtian again.

Chen Mu stood on the second floor, watching from a distance as the two people tested in several ways, but still found nothing.

"Should we tell Mo Wuzhou?"

"If Song Wuji is induced to take action, that monster may be caught and the trouble will be eliminated forever."

"Well, let's check first."

After breakfast, Chen Mu hurried to the Sutra School and stayed there all day.

I searched for information on strange beasts and monsters, and asked doctors for advice, but found nothing.

It's not recorded in the book, and the doctors who teach scriptures don't know about it either.

"It's becoming more and more likely that that stuff will cause blight."

"What a good thing!"

"Song Wuji came here just for the blight. Once he knows about the existence of the white smoke monster, he will definitely investigate."

…

In the evening, Chen Mu sat in front of the porch.

Looking at the fiery red sunset on the horizon, I thought about the white smoke with a human face last night.

"How did you catch the Five Ghost Paper Man?"

"Is it because of the Emperor Yama's order?"

He tried to activate the Yama Order, and an invisible wave suddenly appeared around his body.

He was cautiously alert to the movements around him, but after a while, nothing strange happened.

Chen Mu couldn't help but look at the little paper man next to him: "How about you try to catch another piece of white smoke with a human face like last night?"

Upon hearing this, the five-ghost paper man immediately stood in the air, then slowly swayed in Chen Mu's expectant eyes, and then began to dance happily like a dancing master.

Chen Mu's face suddenly darkened.

…

For several days.

No matter whether Zhu Yu was patrolling the mountain with his magic sword or searching from all directions, nothing was found.

The five ghost paper figures fly around every day and never find that monster white smoke again.

However, the yellow sprouted rice continued to wither, and the disciples in Jilongshan were panic-stricken.

"Did you find the reason?"

When Mo Wuzhou, who had not shown up for a month, came to visit again with Yuan Bao, Chen Mu immediately couldn't wait to inquire.

Mo Wuzhou shook his head helplessly.

"Uncle Song suspected that it was some kind of alien beast and insect. However, after several searches, we found quite a few demons and insects that could produce the elixir of Huohuolingmi, but none of them were the source of the blight."

Chen Mu's eyes suddenly narrowed: "Didn't you find any particularly weird monsters?"

Mo Wuzhou still shook his head.

"Jilong Mountain was once the core of the Upper Court. It has been surveyed countless times over the past hundreds of years."

"Some bugs may have managed to hide without being noticed."

"Weird monster? Impossible."

Chen Mu suddenly frowned.

I really haven’t found it yet.

"Is it possible that the alien beasts and insects are too rare and their hiding methods are relatively secretive, so they were not discovered." He hinted secretly.

"Uncle Song is an expert at controlling demonic insects. How could something slip through the net?" Mo Wuzhou waved his hand.

"What if it escapes into the void and hides?"

"Impossible." Mo Wuzhou laughed: "How can the Void Escape Technique be so easy to perform? Even our Taoist Master can't do it."

Chen Mu glanced at the other party: "You can't escape, but Yuan Bao can."

"How can escape from the earth be compared with moving between two realms? Well...did you discover something?"

As he spoke, Mo Wuzhou couldn't help but think about it.

"You must have discovered something!"

Chen Mu raised the corners of his mouth and narrowed his eyes into a straight line: "I didn't find anything."

"I just feel that the world is vast and there are countless strange beasts and monsters. It's hard to guarantee that some kind of monster has some special abilities and can avoid your detection."

"The origin of the blight has not been found in many mountain roads, indicating that its origin may be very rare."

"So..." Chen Mu shrugged with a smile.

"I'm going to find Uncle Song!" After swallowing two pieces of barbecue, Mo Wuzhou immediately took up the Escape and rushed straight to the back mountain.

…

Perhaps Chen Mu's reminder worked.

The next day, many unfamiliar faces came to Jilong Mountain, and then began to lay out laws and regulations all over the mountain.

Chen Mu observed it for a long time, and all he knew was that it was some kind of solid locking ban, similar to the two-realm isolation ban arranged by Sun Wujiu. He couldn't understand anything more specific.

This went on for many days.

He paid attention to the movements of Jilong Mountain every day, and he kept trying to investigate, but unfortunately he never encountered that kind of white smoke again.

Instead, as he continued to control the flying sword to patrol the mountain, he gained a lot of experience in the Qianji method.

That night.

In front of the second-floor window.

Chen Mu was lying in a rocking chair, and the gray wall appeared in front of him. He lowered his eyes and looked at one of the columns.

Qianji method: 35/10000/fifth level;

With a thought in his mind, the palm-length red feather magic sword began to flash around him, leaving red thin lines in the air.

"The speed is obviously three points faster."

"And the Qianji method has eight more magic talisman spirit seeds."

Chen Mu looked at the jade seeds happily.

In the dark green smoke, eight white translucent silk threads flexibly drilled in the dark stone-like magic talisman.

"That is to say, I can control nine magic swords at once!"

"One Zhuyu magic sword is sharp enough. If nine magic swords are deployed together..."

He couldn't help but get excited just thinking about it.

"Yes, the traction method is a secret method to control puppet Taoist soldiers. It was originally aimed at the human wave tactics."

"It's reasonable to split multiple magic talisman spirit seeds after advancing."

"It's only level 5 now. If I work hard to the limit...haha!"

I was imagining the scene of flying swords in the sky with a casual wave in the future.

A shocking roar suddenly exploded.

Chen Mu's face changed, and the Zhuyu magic sword soared into the sky.

The dark back mountain came into view.

Under the bright moon and stars, a large area of ​​pale and strange smoke enveloped Jilong Mountain.

Accompanied by bursts of explosions, fiery red light continued to explode in the white smoke.

The next moment, an invisible force rose from all directions and firmly locked the surroundings of Jilong Mountain.

"The magic ban that locks the void?"

"Song Wuji really caught it!" Chen Mu was overjoyed.

Many people heard the noise and rushed out of the room and ran to the top of the mountain to watch.

Chen Mu also jumped up from the second floor, and then... then sank into the ground and disappeared.

With the two methods of listening and pulling the machine, he could watch from a distance, so he didn't go to the top of the mountain to watch.

The white fog looked weird at first glance, what if it was affected?
