My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 238 Own People

Trying to sell bewitching miasma?
Isn't this a scam?!
"That won't do." Chen Mu shook his head decisively; selling was definitely out of the question.

What if Shang Huan makes it a hit again?
“I bought this from someone else too.” Chen Mu had an idea as soon as he thought about it.

"Who sold it? I've never heard of it." Shang Huan didn't believe it.

"Someone wearing a white mask, trying to hide it, I thought it was a fake," Chen Mu thought to himself with a wicked grin.

"A white mask? And a black cloak too?" Shang Huan grinned, a chill running down his spine.

"You know him?" Chen Mu asked, feigning confusion.

"Gongsun Sheng..." Shang Huan sighed dejectedly.

“His name isn’t Gongsun Sheng.” Chen Mu chuckled and continued to tease Shang Huan.

"Not Gongsun Sheng?" Shang Huan was secretly delighted.

Not that crazy guy? Then we can just copy him! Haha!

"They say his name is Lu Zhishen, the Lone Star of Heaven, which is quite strange."

Shang Huan was stunned.

Another star has appeared? They're all in cahoots. What's the point of imitating them then!

Chen Mu watched Shang Huan's changing expressions with amusement.

Trying to sell bewitching miasma?
I think you're dreaming!
……

After seeing Shang Huan off.

Chen Mu was not in a hurry to go into the underground secret chamber to cultivate.

Sitting in the rocking chair, he happily counted the white jade coins on his person.

boom!
A wooden cabinet appeared, and Chen Mu opened each drawer to check it.

The wooden cabinet came from Lu Ku's mustard seed talisman.

Lu Ku didn't ask him for it at first, and Chen Mu thought he wanted to give it to him, so he politely accepted it.

I was so engrossed in the Love Mantra for a while that I didn't have time to watch it.

"Only one hundred and twenty-six white jade coins? That doesn't quite live up to your title as the leader of the Seven Brothers of Wushan."

Then he poured out one of his white jade coins and counted it.

"Five hundred and ninety-two? Not bad!" Chen Mu nodded in satisfaction.

It's only a few white jade coins away from the Hundred Intentions Breaking Illusion Technique.

He still had four mustard seed talismans in his hand, which he sold for over a hundred yuan each.

Moreover, the Aura Technique is about to be perfected.

Double happiness!

……

Put it away carefully.

Chen Mu continued to pull down the drawer to check.

Minerals, medicinal herbs, books and scriptures—it's all pretty much the same stuff, nothing new.

Unfortunately, his pharmaceutical skills were not up to par, and he only recognized a small portion of the precious medicinal herbs he had acquired.

"I need to keep practicing my pharmaceutical skills."

This skill is incredibly useful. It's currently his primary means of making money.

"The Scripture Transmission Institute seems to have quite a few books on medicine making," Chen Mu thought to himself.

"You don't need to grind for it."

"It's fine to brush it while taking a break from tea."

They sorted the items and put them into the Five Ghosts Bag.

Chen Mu began to open the various volumes.

Lu Ku seemed to have a particular fondness for collecting books. The bottom drawer of the wooden cabinet was completely filled with books.

Chen Mu glanced through it.

There are techniques for physical training, travelogues about mountains and rivers, ancient secrets, and even techniques for sensing.

"The Lesser Heavenly Cycle Star River Spiritual Light Method"? "The Lesser Floating Cloud Daoist Lord's Method of Breaking Illusions"?
"What a spendthrift!"

The Lingguang Method is the best at the Scripture Transmission Institute, and it costs over five hundred white jades.

Although the method of breaking through illusions is not the best, it can still be ranked in the top five, with nearly eight hundred white jades.

No wonder there are only about a hundred pieces of white jade left.

So, it seems the seven Wu brothers aren't actually short of money?
"What about the others?" Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat.

"Never mind..." Chen Mu immediately shook his head.

Besides, releasing any one of the Tranquilizing Pill, Concealing Qi Powder, or Bewitching Miasma would make him a fortune.

"You can't always be thinking about receiving gifts from others," Chen Mu sighed.

None of those six people are good people. It's better to have less contact with them.

"Hmm...it would be best to never see each other again!"

……

"This is a good thing." Chen Mu put away the cabinet and took out a black gourd from the Five Ghosts Bag.

The Fiery Cloud Gourd is a magical artifact used by Lu Ku. It can collect and nurture fire seeds, enhancing them. When used against enemies, it can be released to burn everything.

"Another source of fire for grilling," Chen Mule thought to himself with satisfaction.

Meat from exotic beasts is really difficult to cook. Even simply cooking high-level exotic beast meat until it's cooked through is challenging.

"I should visit the Tianhe Water Mansion when I have the chance," Chen Mu thought to himself.

Having little prior experience with exotic animal meat, he lacked effective cooking techniques.

With such a prestigious name, Bazhenlou must have plenty to offer, hehe...

……

Xinyou District

Lu Ku's Residence.

The six people were chatting together in a relaxed atmosphere.

"So Gongsun Sheng really doesn't intend to do anything to us?" Ai Ji was still somewhat incredulous.

“It’s possible he doesn’t like you,” Shi Xian said coldly.

"Why does he look down on me?" Ai Ji retorted.

“He can kill all six of us at any time,” Xu Rao said coldly, glancing at Ai Ji with barely concealed anger.

"Isn't that great? No interference between us, everything as usual." Yu Lin said happily.

“Strive to cultivate diligently,” Lu Ku said calmly. “We can’t place our hopes on others.”

"If we all master the spiritual light, then even if Gongsun Sheng asks us to do something, we will not be in danger."

The other five nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let's not talk about him anymore, let's talk about..."

boom!
Lu hadn't finished speaking his bitter words.

A figure suddenly crashed into the courtyard, sending a cloud of dust billowing outwards.

Mo Wuzhou was dressed in a gray short-sleeved shirt, his face stiff and his eyes calm.

He still feels lingering fear when he recalls what happened a month ago.

If his own relatives and friends were truly tortured and murdered, Mo Wuzhou felt he would go insane!
"Are you the Seven Brothers of Wushan?"

Although it's unclear why he turned against them midway, these people are well aware of his interpersonal relationships.

This time they turned against us, what about next time...?

A murderous intent rose in Mo Wuzhou's heart: "You were involved in Lin Su's matter, weren't you?"

Lu Ku stood up and cupped his hands in greeting: "Was it Senior Brother Mo in person?"

“We were indeed involved.”

“Very good!” Mo Wuzhou said calmly.

His skin beneath his clothes glowed with a faint golden hue, and a surge of power coursed through his body.

"I don't deserve your praise, Senior Brother Mo," Lu Ku said modestly.

Mo Wuzhou: "..."

Am I fucking praising you?

“It is only right and proper for me to do things for Senior Brother Mo,” Lu Ku said with a calm smile.

"Besides, we didn't do anything; we just informed Mr. Gongsun of Lin Su's plan in advance."

"The fact that Lin Su's conspiracy was exposed and he was ruined was due to Mr. Gongsun's timely notification and also thanks to Senior Brother Mo's strategic planning."

Mo Wuzhou: "..."

Wait a minute, I don't understand.
Who is Mr. Gongsun?
Strategic planning? I have that ability?!

……

After a long while, and after several verbal probes.

Mo Wuzhou finally had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

He stared blankly at the six siblings from Wushan.

So, it turns out this person is one of our own?
And then there's Gongsun Sheng. I don't know when, but he suddenly became such a "right-hand man."

"Really..."

"Bring Gongsun Sheng here, I want to see him," Mo Wuzhou said with a light cough.

Lu Ku looked at Mo Wuzhou strangely. "Why don't you go find your confidant yourself?"
"Hmm... He recently moved, and I can't find him!" Mo Wuzhou couldn't help but admire his own cleverness.

"We don't know where he is either?" Lu Ku said helplessly.

Mo Wuzhou: "..."

Is it harder to see one's own "confidant" than oneself?

“However, Mr. Gongsun goes to deliver calming pills to a friend every month, um…” Lu Ku said, carefully choosing his words.

"When? I haven't seen them in a long time, so I'll go visit them." Mo Wuzhou chuckled.

This Gongsun Sheng dares to use his own name. What if he's plotting something?
Moreover, the seven Wu brothers were indeed involved in the Lin Su incident.

He couldn't rest easy until he saw this person.
