Longevity starts with learning

Looking at the direction where the figures disappeared, Chu Mu's expression obviously became more solemn.

That direction was heading out of the town.

In other words, they must have come out of the town.

If they were people in the town, they would not have had to be so sneaky if they wanted to leave the town.

In other words, it was very likely that these sneaky people came from outside the town and had achieved their goal by sneaking into the town...

Subconsciously, Chu Mu thought of the remaining "rebels" in Qili Village. The impression that young man left on him was not insignificant.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Mu decisively changed direction and went straight to the inspection station.

The thieves were revealed, and he could not pretend not to see them, whether for public or private reasons.

After going to the inspection station and reporting the news, Chu Mu left the inspection station neatly and went home.

As for what would happen after reporting it, it was not something he needed to consider.

He just hoped that no matter what happened, he would wait until his injury healed.

Whether it is good or bad, he can also have more confidence.

And just when Chu Mu returned home to rest, outside Nanshan Town, in the mountains on the southwest side.

The figures who had been running out of Nanshan Town finally stopped running in front of a cave. After observing the surroundings, they also walked into the cave.

The cave was not big, and the furnishings in the cave were extremely simple. There were only a few straw mats and a bonfire, and nothing else.

"Uncle Niu, Sister Ning, Brother Wu!"

As soon as the men in black entered the cave, several children rushed up at a trot.

On one side of the cave, there was a young man sitting cross-legged with a stern face.

If Chu Mu was here, he would definitely recognize that this young man was the young man he had the first actual combat with after entering the mountain.

If he saw it with his own eyes, Chu Mu would definitely find it incredible.

After all, in that battle, he clearly saw that the young man was severely injured by a knife and was rescued when he was on the verge of death.

But the boy at the moment was just like a normal person, and the serious injuries... seemed to have never existed.

As if he had noticed something, the boy slowly opened his eyes and looked at the three men in black who walked in.

"Xiao Xiu, how are you? How are your injuries?"

"It's all right now."

The boy shook his head: "Sister Ning, have you found out the situation?"

"I've already found out."

"The master's body should have been placed in the dungeon of the inspection station by those dog officials."

"But the security inside is strict, and it's obvious that there is an ambush, and they want to use the master's body to lead us there."

"With the strength of a few of us, if we rush in rashly, I'm afraid we will never come back."

The man in black also spoke up: "Yes, the dog official is obviously prepared, just waiting for us to go there..."

After a few words, everyone was silent. Facing such a difficult situation, they were obviously powerless.

The boy was also silent, but there was no helplessness and hatred in his eyes like the others present. Instead, it was like a pool of dead water, indifferent and calm.

As the night deepened, the faint voices of conversation in the cave dissipated, and between the flickering firelight, a long oblique reflection emerged from the cave.

The young man, who should have rested and slept, also walked out of the cave quietly and stepped into the darkness.

…

The forest was silent, but Nanshan Town at night was no longer as peaceful as before.

The patrol team, which was often missing at night on weekdays, appeared in various places in the town tonight for the first time, patrolling faithfully.

The inspection station under the night was even brighter.

The lights and bonfires dispelled all the darkness within the inspection station without any dead ends.

In the light and dark, there were patrols in armor and sharp weapons.

The reason for all this was obviously because of Chu Mu's report.

And as the initiator of all this... Chu Mu.

The lights in the yard had long been extinguished, and through the grille windows, under the moonlight, the sleeping figures could be clearly seen.

Chu Mu slept peacefully.

As usual, Chu Mu did not wake up until dawn.

The changes in the inspection station obviously had nothing to do with Chu Mu, who was still recovering from his injuries.

After a simple breakfast, Chu Mu once again began his regular life.

Reading, reading, reading...

This kind of life lasted for more than ten days, and it was not interrupted until Chu Mu's injuries were almost healed.

The few men in black that night were really like a flash in the pan, and they were no longer seen, let alone making any noise.

At noon, after more than half a month of buffering, the sadness that enveloped Nanshan Town was gradually dispersed by time.

Although the streets were not as noisy as before, they also regained a lot of popularity and prosperity.

The dead are gone, and the lives of the living need to continue.

In Mingxin Hall, Chu Mu was naked, and the bloody wound on his abdomen had turned into a hideous scar.

"Almost recovered."

Old Li nodded: "It won't affect your martial arts practice, just don't do too strenuous activities in the short term."

After that, Old Li pointed to the oil paper bags piled up on the counter: "The prescription you want is also ready, a month's supply."

"The price is not expensive, fifty silver."

Hearing the price, Chu Mu's mouth twitched, and without saying much, he took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and handed it to Old Li.

Picking up the stack of medicinal materials, he went directly outside the Mingxin Hall.

The method of practicing the body-building technique is internal and external practice.

It also records several prescriptions for assisting cultivation.

Although it is not necessary to practice the Body Tempering Technique, it is obvious that practicing with medicine and practicing without medicine are two different concepts.

But this price... fifty silvers a month... is undoubtedly extremely high.

As his thoughts flowed, Chu Mu touched the thin stack of banknotes in his arms and couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

When he came to this world, he inherited the legacy left by the original owner's father, which was as high as hundreds of silvers. A few days ago, he was awarded two hundred silvers for his military merits, and there was also the monthly salary of black gold these days.

Logically speaking, he should be extremely rich.

But with this large income, the expenses are obviously even greater.

In just one or two months, studying in private schools, studying in medical clinics, entertaining colleagues, practicing martial arts, daily needs...

Each of them is a large expense of tens or even hundreds of silvers.

Apart from other things, the fifty silvers of medicine per month completely exceeded his monthly salary.

Chu Mu rubbed his forehead, looking a little bit amused.

Before, he was an ordinary patrol inspector, guarding the hundreds of silvers of the original owner's father's inheritance, and he really didn't worry about money.

Now he has been promoted to captain, has martial arts, and has a reputation, but he has to worry about money.

"I have to make money..."

Chu Mu shook his head and walked carelessly on the street.

After recovering from his illness, he had to perform his duties. After performing his duties, Wu Shuo would definitely take him to play with things that no one had taken him to play with before.

For example... iron in the black market?

Chu Mu didn't have any psychological burden and was very open-minded.

He had to take what he should take.

If Wu Shuo took him to play, he didn't take it, wouldn't it be boring for him.
