My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 685 Drawing fire from the bottom of the cauldron

Duzun Peak Tiangong Camp.

"This guy Zhou Tong is actually Lu Yue's man?!" Chen Mu's face darkened as he listened to the faint conversation coming from his ears.

Yes.

How could Lu Yue feel at ease when it came to such a major matter as releasing the yellow millet plague to the entire Bianshe Star without a trusted confidant in charge?

"Fortunately, I placed the Zhuyu magic sword near the Tiangong Camp in Yinyue Lake." Chen Mu was thankful.

This magic sword was originally used to find out the whereabouts of General Li Jiu.

The camp where another general, Fei Zhao, was located was also being monitored by a red feather magic sword.

After all, Lu Yue is the leader of a sect and the Lord of the Soul. Chen Mu is afraid that the two of them will not be able to withstand the pressure and defect to each other.

But what Chen Mu didn't expect was that Li Jiu and Fei Zhao were fine, and Zhou Tong, who was originally thought to be fine, turned out to be the one with the real problem.

"Before you were infected with the yellow millet plague, was that a show for others to see?"

"No, it's not necessarily an act. It's very likely that he poisoned himself on purpose!"

“With the Emperor’s Blood, even if I’m damaged by the plague, I can recover quickly!” Chen Mu suddenly realized.

"Insidious! Really insidious!" He couldn't help but grit his teeth.

If Zhou Tong were to recruit helpers, Bian Shexing would certainly be controlled by Lu Yue's men again, and his situation would then be...

Thinking of this, Chen Mu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

……

Late at night.

At the top of Duzun Peak, Zhou Tong strode into the hall.

"Junior brother, you go and have a rest. I'll keep an eye on Han Ying." Zhou Tong said to Fei Zhao by the pond.

"Brother, are you okay?" Fei Zhao asked with concern.

"It's just that the hidden danger has been suppressed temporarily. It will be extremely difficult to fully recover." Zhou Tong pretended to be angry and glared at Han Ying not far away.

"Brother, Han Ying is the sect leader's first disciple after all, you must not execute him without permission." Fei Zhao advised with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Don't worry, I know my limits." Zhou Tong took a deep breath, and nodded in agreement as if he was trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

"In that case, thank you for your help, senior brother." Fei Zhao hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up, clasped his fists and said goodbye.

Zhou Tong waved his hands nonchalantly, his eyes still staring at Han Ying angrily.

After a while, when Fei Zhao's escape light completely disappeared in the sky, Zhou Tong's expression immediately changed and he quickly approached Han Ying.

"I'm sorry, young master." He looked apologetic and as he spoke he cast a spell to loosen the chains slightly, but he didn't dare to completely untie them.

The secret chain technique was performed jointly by him, Fei Zhao and Li Jiu. If they were to unlock it completely, the other two would notice it immediately.

"I will set up the altar later and bring our people here. By then, we can capture Li Jiu and Fei Zhao in one fell swoop, and you can completely break free from these chains." Zhou Tong smiled.

But as he was talking, he realized something was wrong.

Han Ying in front of him had her eyes closed and didn't respond to what he said.

Zhou Tong's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

Something is wrong!

He immediately released several spells to activate the chains.

The chains that originally bound the lower half of Han Ying's face quickly squirmed and loosened, and a strange smiling face with upturned corners of the mouth suddenly came into view.

Yellow Millet Plague? !

How could the young master be infected with the yellow millet plague? !

Zhou Tong's pupils suddenly shrank and he felt as if someone was grabbing his heart.

Sect leader Lu Yue values ​​Han Ying very much. If I let him know that Han Ying was poisoned by the plague and turned into an idiot, then I...

Zhou Tong suddenly clenched his fists and his heart couldn't help but tremble.

Is it Meng Qingchan?

No, no, no, it’s Gao Gong Lan Xiuzhu!

They found out that I had contacted the Sect Master, so they attacked the Young Master directly. This was like cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron, forcing me to betray the Sect Master.

Lan Xiuzhu is so cruel!

Zhou Tong's scalp went numb and his back was instantly covered in cold sweat.

……

"You must be sweating profusely, General."

On the west side of the camp, Chen Mu was lying in a reclining chair at the entrance of the snail shell, laughing softly. Beside him, the golden red Plague Immortal Flag fluttered without wind.

The Plague Immortal Technique can collect the plague poison, and naturally it can also release the plague poison. And because there is the Plague Immortal Flag in hand, the means of releasing the plague poison are even more mysterious and unpredictable.

Upon discovering that Zhou Tong had contacted Lu Yue, Chen Mu immediately released poison to turn Han Ying into a fool.

Zhou Tong was Lu Yue's confidant, but Han Ying was Lu Yue's first disciple.

If something happened to Han Ying right under Zhou Tong's nose, Lu Yue would definitely not let Zhou Tong go.

"As the saying goes, a man who knows the times is a hero. President Zhou will definitely make the right choice."

"Ha ha……"

……

Driven by fear, Zhou Tong's motivation was fully mobilized.

The next day, he did not hesitate to waste his energy and used a secret method to contact Tianguan City.

Four days later, a white jade door that looked like an illusion appeared in the air at the foot of Duzun Peak.

A new batch of Taoist soldiers were sent to garrison Bianshe Star, and Chen Mu and others from the Tiangong Camp were asked to return to Tianguan City.

"Relocate and protect the participants of the plague incident? Is this targeting Lord Lu?"

Following behind Manager Wu and slowly walking towards Tianmen, Chen Mu had a flash of enlightenment in his mind.

Now, the high-ranking Lan Xiuzhu has come out to target Lord Lu.

I'm afraid Lu Yue doesn't have the energy to investigate the incident on Bianshe Star.

……

Yangdufang, Lane 96.

Half a year later, Chen Mu returned to Jiweiyuan again.

Looking at the familiar screen wall and patio, I feel quite at ease.

Although it was just an ordinary residence arranged by Tianguan City, during the time he lived here, he worked and practiced every day. The rare regularity and stability of his life actually made Chen Mu feel a sense of belonging.

"With Lan Xiuzhu as a tall man in the front, Lu Yue won't be able to investigate carefully in a short time."

"There are tens of thousands of Taoist soldiers on Bianshe Star who have experienced the plague incident. I am hiding among them, just like a drop of water in a lake. I will basically not be discovered."

"I should be able to practice peacefully for a long time to come."

Thinking of this, Chen Mu couldn't help but smile.

Just as he was about to return to his room, a familiar burly figure walked into the courtyard.

It was none other than his next-door neighbor Zhong Qing.

The other party went to Bianshe Star earlier than himself and was also recalled this time.

Chen Mu was about to say hello when he found that something was wrong with the other party.

His face was pale, his eyes were dull, his movements were slow and clumsy, and he was unresponsive to calls from other people in the hospital.

This is……

"It is said that his upper spirit was injured by the plague. I don't know how many years it will take to recover. How pitiful..." Everyone in the yard noticed Zhong Qing and couldn't help but sigh.

"This is already considered good. Of the five Taoist friends on the second floor of the West Wing, only two have returned. I heard that the other three have completely turned into zombies."

"How can the leader of a sect be so cruel and ruthless?"

"Fellow Daoist, be careful with your words and don't bring yourself into trouble!"

Chen Mu stood at the staircase of the east wing, looking at Zhong Qing with a silly smile on his face, and couldn't help but feel a sour feeling of grief for the rabbit's death.

If I didn't have the Heavenly Demon Armor and the Seven Emotions Flame to protect me...

"Let Han Ying be poisoned by the yellow millet plague and become stupid, it seems like we are letting him off easily." A gloomy look flashed in Chen Mu's eyes.

"And there is also Lord Lu Yue who doesn't take the lives of Taoist soldiers seriously."

"I really want to see him being plagued by the plague, but unfortunately..."

It's a pity that the other party is the Yuanshen Divine Lord, and it's a pity that the other party is the leader of Qianji Sect. Even if this incident happened, I'm afraid the other party won't suffer too much loss.

"As an old enemy for hundreds of years, Meng Qingchan must have a way to severely injure Lord Lu..."

At this moment, Chen Mu even had some hope that Meng Qingchan could wake up soon.
