Longevity starts with learning

Chapter 82 Aftermath

"Hey, why don't you know how to adapt?"

"In our business, you have to understand the situation clearly."

"Rush when you should rush, and be low-key when you shouldn't!"

Looking at Chu Mu's mummy appearance, Wu Shuo seemed to hate the fact that iron cannot become steel.

Chu Mu was a little embarrassed. He knew the current situation very well and ran away immediately when he saw that the situation was not right.

Who would have thought that after running away, they could still bump into each other face to face? Who would have thought...

"Okay, you go back and recuperate."

"Don't worry, Qianhu has already issued an order to reward the patrol who bravely fought last night!"

"I've heard about you, and this reward is indispensable for you..."

"Then it's up to you, Captain."

Chu Mu smiled, glanced around, and lowered his voice a little: "Captain, did everyone get caught last night?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Shuo's expression suddenly became gloomy: "One was killed, two were run away, and even the mummified corpse was taken away."

Chu Mu was slightly startled, as if in disbelief.

Apart from anything else, with the terrifying power of the man in white last night, he couldn't kill just one, right?

Wu Shuo whispered: "I heard that the patrolman was injured."

"How is that possible?"

Chu Mu was even more surprised.

"Who knows."

Wu Shuo shook his head: "We don't understand the methods of immortals anyway..."

"Right."

"This is for you."

As he spoke, Wu Shuo seemed to remember something, took out a wad of banknotes from his arms and put it into Chu Mu's hand.

"This is?"

Chu Mu looked at the wad of banknotes in his hand, feeling a little confused.

Wu Shuo spoke briefly: "Iron ore, these two months."

Then, as if he saw Chu Mu's worry, Wu Shuo added: "Just think of this as your monthly salary. Many people in our inspection office have it."

Chu Mu nodded and was very knowledgeable and didn't ask any more questions.

The purpose of "paid leave" had been achieved, and Chu Mu did not stay too long. After chatting with Wu Shuo for a few words, he found an excuse and left the inspection station.

After a night of hustle and bustle, Nanshan Town, which was already becoming increasingly depressed, seemed a little lonely again.

No matter what era, ordinary people have a natural resistance to turmoil. In this era, this resistance is obviously more obvious.

Since the turmoil first emerged a few months ago, there have been many people dragging their families and leaving.

At present, we can even see many relatives and family members dragging their families away during inspections.

As for danger, in the inspection system, there are obviously many people who can sense the danger.

Under Li Jinghong's strict order, people wearing patrol clothes could not run away, so there was no problem in arranging for the family to leave.

When it comes to most inspections, not even Li Jinghong can stop them.

This Nanshan Town is originally a small town based on hundreds of patrols, with relatives and families as the branches, and then traveling merchants as the branches and leaves.

Under this situation, in this cold winter month, it is so depressed, as if the weather is as...dead.

Even in broad daylight, there were few pedestrians on the street. Except for a few shops on both sides of the street, most of them had closed their doors.

Chu Mu didn't pay too much attention to all the changes. He was alone in his family. As long as he didn't take off his patrol skin, many things could not be separated from him.

And this inspection skin...at least for now, its role is crucial.

When people are in the secular world, they cannot do without the secular rules.

And secular rules, this inspection skin can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After about a quarter of an hour, his steps stopped, and what caught Chu Mu's eyes was a scene of chaos.

The towering archway has collapsed, the streets are full of potholes, as if they were washed away by cannonballs, and the surrounding houses are even more dilapidated.

Everything in front of him clearly told Chu Mu the true power of the extraordinary!

But... Chu Mu didn't know what level the man in white was in the higher level of the extraordinary world.

But that young man, no matter how talented he was, would never be able to reach the pinnacle of the extraordinary world in just one or two months.

It is even very possible that the young man is only at the level of entering the extraordinary world for the first time.

The underlying forces in the extraordinary world are so terrifying...

What about higher levels?

Create the world? Immortality?

Chu Mu thought about all the myths and legends from his past life, and his heart seemed to be trembling uncontrollably.

After a long time, Chu Mu was able to calm down. After looking around at the mess in front of him, Chu Mu stepped forward and headed straight towards Mingxintang.

Yearning turns to yearning, reality turns to reality. His reality still lies in reading and practicing martial arts.

When I arrived at Mingxintang, I read a volume of medical books and started a day that was no different from usual.

The only difference is that in the past, I read when I was on duty, but now I read when I am recuperating.

After flipping through a volume of medical books, questions that he had not yet understood were forming in Chu Mu's mind. As usual, Chu Mu habitually accumulated doubts and then asked Mr. Li to solve them all at once.

"Where is Mr. Li...?"

Chu Mu was slightly confused and looked at the busy apprentices in the medicine hall.

"Master seems to have gone upstairs."

"Brother Chu, what's the matter?"

"fine."

Chu Mu shook his head, glanced at the stairs, and turned to another medical book. Just as he was about to flip through it, there was a sudden bang on the top of the building.

Chu Mu stood up subconsciously, his hand had already reached for his waist, and when his palm touched nothing, Chu Mu realized that his sword had been broken last night.

"Master, what happened?"

Chu Mu was extremely alert, but the apprentice beside him was not as startled as Chu Mu. While walking to the stairs, he shouted upstairs.

"It's okay, something fell on the ground."

Soon, the voice of Mr. Li came from upstairs.

"Oh..."

The apprentice responded and turned around to continue working.

Chu Mu's tense body relaxed, and when he was about to sit down, his pupils suddenly shrank.

There is one more person upstairs?

Chu Mu's movements were very subtle, and his attention seemed to be completely focused on the movement coming from the roof.

He was sure that just after the bang, there was indeed another completely different sound of footsteps upstairs.

Chu Mu looked around the entire pharmacy. All five of Mr. Li's apprentices were there. According to what he had learned in the past few days, if it was the second floor, the apprentices were not allowed to go upstairs without Mr. Li's permission.

And just now, he didn't see anyone else go upstairs...

Chu Mu sat down slowly, and looked at the medical book on the table again, with doubt in his eyes.

Who would come to visit Mr. Li and do such a thing?

Why did he come so secretly?

Mr. Li, a doctor, at most has excellent medical skills...

Could it be...

Chu Mu subconsciously thought of the young man covered in blood.

There was a storm last night, and the young man finally escaped.

Chu Mu wanted to get up, but in the end, he sat down again.

Everyone has their own secrets. If you force yourself to pry into them, it is very likely that you will only get yourself into trouble.

"Huh..."

Chu Mu took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress the doubts in his heart, and his eyes fixed on the pages of the book again.
