My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 260 Kidnapping someone
It's impossible to sell the miasma.

Even if it were to be sold, it should be Lu Zhishen who does it.

Chen Mu's identity is that of an ordinary small farmer.

Besides, the miasma is not friendly either.

High concentrations can easily knock out farmers.

Even at low concentrations, it can't incapacitate white-striped black mice.

After decisively dismissing Shang Huan, Chen Mu cleaned up the mess of cups and plates, lost in thought.

"This is a good opportunity."

The farmers in the lower house need something to help them fight against the monsters.

Once you figure it out, you can make a fortune.

"What a pity..." Chen Mu shook his head and dismissed the thought.

The most urgent task is to solve the bottleneck problem in the cultivation of the Breaking Illusion Technique.

"There are also quite a few disciples at the Spiritual Aura Realm in the General Affairs Bureau and the Inspection Bureau."

"How did they solve this problem?" Chen Mu squinted.

……

Ten miles away from the foot of Pengyue Mountain.

A clearing was created by clearing out a dense forest.

A campfire was burning in the center, making crackling and popping sounds.

"The leader's surname is Zheng. He was originally a ten-man squad leader in the patrol bureau," Wu Ruo said calmly and gently, sitting by the fire.

"Cultivation level is the ability to sense spiritual light."

"He has a total of fifteen people under his command, of whom only five have achieved the unity of their divine souls and mastered the secret technique of the Jade Seed."

"They have hunted down five strange beasts so far, with a total harvest of about four to five hundred white jades."

Xu Rao then calmly said, "The spiced prey has been sent over."

"It was a wild boar from the neighborhood that 'accidentally' fell into their trap, naturally. The drug was also well hidden and wouldn't be discovered."

Lu nodded with a wry smile: "Very good."

"Eat first, then we'll get started."

The group nodded silently.

Ai Jique, standing by the campfire, suddenly spoke up: "Gongsun Sheng hasn't been paying attention to us for half a year, has he?"

“We haven’t had any communication for almost half a year; something might have happened,” Yu Lin said after a moment’s hesitation.

"It's also possible that they've left Chicken Coop Road." Wu Ruo smiled, in a good mood.

"Or perhaps they stayed at the Tongtian River branch, taking advantage of the chaos." Xu Rao squinted.

"Do you think it's possible that he's dead?" Ai Ji chuckled.

The other five were taken aback.

"Half a year. If they're still alive, it wouldn't be difficult for them to even glance at us, would it?"

“I think he’s definitely dead!” Ai Ji said excitedly.

The five people stared at Ai Ji without saying a word.

"It would be better if I were dead! I don't want to be watched anymore!"

"You wouldn't believe it, but six months ago I had to be extremely careful even when I went to the toilet. I was terrified even to kill someone."

"Isn't it great now? I can scam people whenever I want, and kill people to steal treasures whenever I want!"

"Hey, why aren't you guys saying anything?"

"Shi Xian, is your eyelid twitching? How about I punch you to cure it? Haha!"

"Oh right, we even devised a winking code to deal with his synesthesia."

"We are the seven unruly brothers of Wushan, when have we ever been so humiliated!" Ai Ji said angrily.

"Alright, Shi Xian, stop blinking. I still remember the code. You don't need to remind me."

"Look if you don't believe me."

Ai Ji blinked enthusiastically, but then he froze in place.

His neck seemed rusty; he kept turning his head, clicking and turning, to look at Shi Xian, then to look at the others.

"Just now……"

Shi Xian glanced at Ai Ji with an expressionless face, then turned to look at Lu Ku and said in a cold voice, "He wants a list."

"List of disciples in the Inspection Bureau and General Affairs Bureau who have reached the Spiritual Aura Realm."

"It should be as comprehensive as possible."

Lu Kuping nodded calmly, "Understood." Silence fell around the campfire.

"Gong...Gongsun Sheng?!" Ai Ji's hair practically stood on end!

"When did he come?"

“When you said he was dead,” Shi Xian said softly.

"Then he listened to everything I said?!" Ai Ji grabbed her hair, feeling numb all over.

"Can we still try to rob that hunting party?"

The others stared at him without saying a word.

You've already revealed everything, what are you still fighting over?
……

Two days later, in Yiyou District.

Chen Mu sat in the rocking chair, flipping through a stack of papers one by one.

Zhang He, aged forty to fifty, is the head of a ten-man squad in the Inspection Bureau. His secret cultivation technique is unknown, but it is suspected to be a speed-enhancing type. He enjoys drinking, and other hobbies are unknown...

"I just wanted a list, I didn't expect it to include personal information."

After flipping through a few more pages, some even included notes on daily routines and how others evaluated the person.

Chen Mu watched in amazement.

"Are you that skilled in your work?"

"It feels like a ruthless bandit stomping on a plate to kidnap someone."

"This is a perfect match for my major," Chen Mu said, shaking his head.

This group of people are either causing trouble for others or on their way to causing trouble for others all day long.

If there weren't so few other good sources of information, Chen Mu wouldn't have contacted these people.

"I should contact you less in the future," Chen Mu secretly resolved.

They say you become like the company you keep, and you become like the company you keep. I'm a good person, so I can't let them lead me astray.

Pulling out a sheet of white paper from a stack, Chen Mu said with a look of satisfaction: "Liang Cheng has a regular lifestyle, works diligently, is naturally taciturn and timid, has simple interpersonal relationships, and is an honest person."

"It's him!"

……

Liang Cheng is not tall and is rather thin.

Even after undergoing physical training and transformation, he still didn't have that kind of strong physique.

Because of his introverted and taciturn personality, he was often bullied by his peers when he was young.

Fortunately, he was easygoing, avoided trouble whenever possible, treated others kindly, and secretly studied and practiced diligently.

The day he mastered the spiritual light, those who used to bully him all became kind. Well, they had no choice but to be kind.

Because of his introverted personality and seemingly honest and easy-to-bully demeanor, his current colleagues still bully him.

But he didn't take it to heart; it was just a repeat of the past.

He still avoided trouble, remained kind to others, and continued to study and practice diligently in secret.

When I finally master the skill of breaking through illusions, the expressions on my colleagues' faces will be quite a sight.

Of course, he first has to get through today's hurdle.

Liang Cheng was imprisoned in mid-air by an invisible force.

A voice suddenly appeared behind him.

"Liang Cheng?" Chen Mu changed his voice and said indifferently.

He was dressed in black, wore a white mask, and was surrounded by black smoke.

He even deliberately adjusted his body shape and posture to make himself look like a cold-blooded killer.

I'll say a couple more seemingly calm but actually crazy harsh words later, I'm not afraid this honest and dull guy won't listen.

“There’s a brick at the base of the east wall. If you can take it out, all my white jade coins are inside.”

"My main job in the General Affairs Office is document registration. I have a general understanding of the disciples in the Lower Court."

"You don't need to tell me who to look for, just tell me which partitions, and I will write down all the information I know."

"I was somewhat marginalized in the General Affairs Bureau and didn't know much about Supervisor Song's intelligence."

"But recently, it has been Abbot Liang Yi who has been in charge of the affairs of Lengyuetan. It is probably true that the abbot's injuries have not healed."

"Also, please rest assured. I have kept my eyes closed since just now and will not see any information about you."

Chen Mu: “…”

Are you so cooperative?

Are kidnappers having such an easy job these days?
