My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 232 Backlash
Shang Huanle watched the six people's backs with a big laugh, feeling extremely happy.

The shadow of being threatened by the other party vanished instantly.

But after a short while of enjoying myself, I felt a chill run down my spine.

Turning around, I saw Gongsun Sheng, wearing a white mask, standing silently behind me.

Shang Huan instinctively shrank his neck, his face full of fawning smiles: "Thank you so much, Mr. Gongsun, for saving my life!"

"I heard you're selling large quantities of Hidden Qi Powder. Who's making it for you?" Chen Mu asked calmly.

Shang Huan scratched his head sheepishly, "I did it myself."

"I mixed insect repellent powder with sawdust, calling it 'invisibility powder,' and told others that it could ward off strange beasts."

"Unexpectedly, it sold quite well."

"But it attracted this group of evil stars."

"Thanks to Mr. Gongsun for saving us, otherwise..." Shang Huan shuddered.

He immediately declared with conviction, "Don't worry, Mr. Gongsun, from now on my life belongs to you. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west!"

Ah……

Chen Mu glanced at Shang Huan and asked, "Did you make that tube of eggplant night grass too?"

"Isn't it the lure of profit that moves people's hearts?" Shang Huan said with a blushing face.

"And then I needed to buy the Spirit Light Magic, so I was short of money."

"Hearing that medicinal herbs were in short supply, I had some improper thoughts. I devised a batch of spices that tasted similar and sold them as genuine products."

You figured it out yourself? Very good!

"That fatso didn't sell it to me. He's kept the identity of the maker of Hidden Qi Powder and Night-blooming Jasmine a secret all along."

"But we can't just let him off the hook." Chen Mu's lips curled slightly.

He looked at Shang Huan with a gentle yet chilling gaze: "Your mouth is still pretty tight."

"Then why were you so quick to betray me? The seven brothers of Wushan only had to press me a little before they revealed me."

"Trying to use someone else to do your dirty work?"

"Kill them or kill me?"

"They don't want us to die together, do they?"

Shang Huan's scalp tingled instantly, and his face turned pale in an instant.

Before he could explain, Chen Mu chuckled and said, "Next time before you speak, remember to consider the Heart-Sharing Gu."

"You don't want me to activate it, do you? Heh..."

Seeing Shang Huan sweating profusely from fright, Chen Mu, hiding behind his mask, couldn't help but smile.

That fatso is too clever for his own good.

He sold far more Hidden Qi Powder than he supplied.

It's obvious even to a fool that this fatso has added another layer of fraud, increasing the shipment volume.

Fortunately, the fat man kept his mouth shut and shifted all the blame onto Gongsun Sheng.

Seeing that Shang Huan was frightened, Chen Mu casually tossed him twenty bottles of calming pills. Black smoke billowed out, and they slowly disappeared before the other party's eyes.

……

Low hill courtyard.

Chen Mu examined the short black rope from all angles.

The rope is about the length of a palm and the thickness of a little finger, woven from black silk thread.

Each of the two segments is pierced with an oval white jade stone. When they are brought close together, they can stick together tightly.

Chen Mu looked at the rope with a complicated expression.

This rope, it's alive!

"The Netherworld Silk..."

The short rope artifact, made from Yinming silk, is called the Heart-to-Heart Rope and is the core component of the Seven Sons Heart-to-Heart Gu.

According to the description in the Thousand Mountains Classic.

The Tongxin Suo can split into seven offspring, which can coexist in other people's bodies, achieving the common growth of the offspring and the one who planted the Gu.

Ultimately, the one who planted the Gu was cultivated into a Seven Souls Dao Soldier.

"A living magical artifact, a Daoist soldier nurtured by Gu worms, and not just any Gu worm, but something as bizarre as Yinming Silk..."

"Truly worthy of being called the Thousand Mountains Classic!"

Chen Mu wasn't particularly surprised.

Isn't the Thousand Mountains Classic exactly this kind of evil thing?

The Five Ghosts Bag, the Yin-Cultivating Strategy, and now this Heart-Connecting Rope—none of them are anything serious!
"I wonder where Lu Ku got this scripture from."

"To actually dare to implant a Gu poison in oneself, tsk tsk..."

The Seven Souls Dao Soldiers, forged from the Seven Sons United Heart Gu, have two rules.

First, they cannot turn against their master.

The Unity Rope is a shackle that binds Dao soldiers. Secondly, it prevents them from killing their own comrades.

The seven sons, united in heart, could sense each other's malice.

The seven sons share a common origin; once a companion is killed, the Yin-Yang Silk within the perpetrator's body will also go berserk and cause a backlash.

The seven brothers of Wushan planted Gu on themselves so that they could trust each other and so that the Seven Soul Dao Soldiers could quickly increase their strength.

"What a ruthless person..." Chen Mu couldn't help but shake his head.

With a thought, a gray wall appeared before my eyes.

A new entry has been added below.

Heart-to-Heart Mantra: 1136/10000/Level 1;
"First tier should be enough," Chen Mu thought to himself.

"I don't expect the seven Wu brothers to risk their lives."

"They don't need to risk their lives."

"Just don't cause me any trouble."

Chen Mu placed the love knot on his head, wrapped it around three times, and interlocked the jade stones, which neatly tied up his hair.

"The best situation is to never see each other again," Chen Mu shrugged.

You can continue to be bullies.

I'll continue being a homebody.

Chen Mu then thought of Shang Huan.

"The hidden energy powder can no longer be sold."

"The production of imitations of *Eclipta prostrata* must also be stopped."

If the potential profits hadn't been so great, this trouble wouldn't have happened.

"There are still several months before the spiritual light reaches perfection, so the need for the secret method of breaking through illusions is not urgent."

"At worst, we can just sell a little more set of calming pills."

"The Yupinxuan channel is relatively safe."

"Save it slowly, and you'll eventually have enough money to buy the secret technique."

Having made up his mind, he got up to deal with the yellow sprout rice field.

In order to control the seven Wu brothers, he has been running to Shang Huan's place for the past few days, and weeds have even appeared in the fields!

The night-blooming jasmine was also starting to wilt.

His peaceful life was disrupted for several days.

It's all that fatso Shang Huan's fault!

……

In front of a vast expanse of yellow rice fields in Xinyou District.

Seven stone courtyards were built side by side.

Inside a courtyard in the middle, the six siblings of Wushan gathered together.

"Wu Ruo, I need you to go to the Heavenly River Water Mansion. We need to collect enough Yin Sha Dust." Lu Ku sat at the head of the table and calmly looked at the gentle woman at the head of the table on his left.

"Okay." Wu Ruo, dressed in a light green cross-collar ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), with her long hair reaching her waist, nodded gently.

"Boss, do you have a way to counter this?" Ai Ji asked excitedly.

"The Thousand Mountains Classic records a secret method at the end."

"The Yin Sha Dust can be used to accelerate the growth of the Seven Sons United Gu."

"The secret method also mentions that if the growth is too fast and the concentric rope is not well controlled, there will be a risk of backlash."

"Gongsun Sheng has just obtained the Heart-Connecting Rope, but his mastery of the Heart-Connecting Mantra is not high."

"And since they hold our lives in their hands, with the power of life and death, they will surely be satisfied and smug."

"This gave us a chance to get out of trouble."

“I have used a potion to erase the secret technique records, so Gongsun Sheng will not know this.”

"The key is how to quickly cultivate the Seven Sons United Gu!"

The eyes of the people in the living room immediately lit up.

"Wu Ruo, don't be afraid to spend money. Let Yu Lin accompany you to the Heavenly River Water Mansion and buy back all the Yin Sha Dust you can find!"

"Alright!" Wu Ruo narrowed her eyes, her expression immediately becoming serious.

"Everyone, please put aside what you are doing for now."

"The most urgent task is to make the Unity Gu grow rapidly."

"The day we break free from the restraints of the Heart-Shaped Rope will be the day we kill Gongsun Sheng."

"Mo Wuzhou's confidant, ah..."

"Lin Su will surely like it very much!"

The six people immediately smiled.
