My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 415 Gatekeeper
On the wooden house corridor.

Chen Mu looked at Mo Wuzhou, who had no expression, with a sincere expression: "I can move."

"Do you think you can still move it?" Mo Wuzhou said irritably.

Since this mountain forest was chosen as the site for the shipyard construction, the entire construction plan for the Ganhe Lower Temple has been consciously moved away from here. The nearest spiritual field is at least twenty miles away.

He also secretly altered the restrictions, reducing the earth's spiritual energy in the nearby spiritual fields and making them barren, all so that the lower-level disciples would voluntarily stay away.

As a result, the already remote valleys will become even more desolate.

Who would have thought Chen Mu would be hiding in this secluded corner? And wouldn't you know it, we saw him digging and excavating here with his Uncle-Master Hu Quan!
"I didn't see anything, so why can't I move?" Chen Mu retorted, his neck stiff with indignation.

“You didn’t see it, but you heard it.” Mo Wuzhou couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

He knew very well that this guy's ability to listen to sounds was quite advanced. At such close range, he was certain that this guy had already seen through his Uncle-Master Hu Quan's digging activities.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm moving!" Chen Mu stubbornly denied it.

Judging from Mo Wuzhou's attitude, it was clear that what those people were doing was highly confidential. He wouldn't dare get involved in something like that; he'd rather stay away than get involved!

“Fine, but you can only move to the dungeon of the Inspection Bureau.” Mo Wuzhou said expressionlessly.

Chen Mu immediately felt a headache coming on.

The fact that Mo Wuzhou was so determined meant it must be some kind of secret. How did I end up getting involved in this mess?
"What bad luck!"

Mo Wuzhou glanced at the open space in the courtyard and immediately saw two huge toad webbed footprints.

His face twitched involuntarily; those were definitely marks left by the gold ingot.

Good heavens, this giant toad had already found this place. Why didn't it warn Chen Mu to stay away earlier?

"Don't even think about running away, just stay here." Mo Wuzhou sighed. "I remember you once assisted in building the protective barriers of Misty Mountain, and you're particularly good at listening to the energy deep underground. You can work with Yuanbao to keep an eye on the surrounding underground."

Chen Mu's expression changed: "Even the big toad knows about this?"

How could it have never told me that?!

“You should thank it.” Mo Wuzhou glanced at Chen Mu meaningfully.

Yuanbao deliberately concealed the truth, which is how Chen Mu got involved in the Chicken Cage Road relocation plan.

But precisely because of this, when the relocation to Haizhou occurred, Chen Mu, as a participant, was naturally qualified to follow the migration.

With the decline of spiritual energy in Yunzhou, only by following the Daoist sect to Haizhou could Chen Mu possibly continue his cultivation. Compared to most disciples who knew nothing about this, Chen Mu was already quite fortunate.

"I thank him to death!" Chen Mu, still indignant, was completely bewildered.

……

On the Gan River, inside a covered boat.

"Young Master, it's all settled." Tantai Zong knelt respectfully before the square table.

"I found two herbalists who can see far into the distance."

"They would grow yellow root grass on a hill thirty miles away to make a living, and would use long-range vision to observe and record the person's whereabouts on a regular basis."

“The messages recorded each day will be sent to a designated location by a kingfisher. As long as the person follows, they will definitely fall into the trap.”

Lin Su nodded slightly: "That's all we can do for now."

"Still no news from Jin Manzi?"

Tantai Zong hesitated, "The Night Wanderer's words were vague; he's probably been tricked by that person again."

Lin Su raised an eyebrow: "Although Jin Manzi is reckless, he is really strong. You can make him run around like a headless chicken... What a talent!"

"It's a pity he's a Heavenly Capital Primordial Embryo and can't survive, otherwise I really wanted to recruit him for my own use."

"Should we wait for General Jin?" Tantai Zong asked.

Lin Su tapped her fingers on the table in thought, then shook her head after a moment: "Forget it, we can't count on Jin Manzi."

"Our plans remain the same. It would be best if you could come. If you can't, we'll have to do it ourselves."

"Double the offerings again. Make sure that as soon as that person steps into the trap, he is moved into the Dragon-Trapping Well."

Tantai Zong respectfully clasped his hands in a fist and bowed: "Yes!"

……

A fenced yard on a small hillside.

Chen Mu sat on the edge of the wooden house's corridor.

With a thud, the dangling right foot poked a ripple into the toad's belly.

"You knew about the secrets around here by tomorrow morning, so why didn't you remind me to move?" Chen Mu stared at Yuanbao's big eyes.

Yuanbao said nonchalantly, "Quack." "I said you can't keep your mouth shut, so show me how you can shut it up?"

"I'm so angry I laughed."

"With your rebellious nature, aren't you afraid that Song Wuji will stew you one day?" Chen Mu said viciously.

"Croak." The giant toad remained calm.

"He can't beat you?"

"grass!"

Chen Mu was speechless.

A powerful monster can be this capricious.

Still not satisfied, he kicked the toad's soft belly twice more before finally sighing helplessly.

"Now that I'm involved, can you tell me what happened?"

"Croak?" The giant toad tilted its head slightly.

"You're asking if I'm sure I want to know? I'm already in this mess, what's there to hesitate about..."

"Wait!" Chen Mu exclaimed in surprise.

All he knew was that someone was digging a tunnel inside the mountain, but he had no idea why they were digging it.

For Mo Wuzhou, a direct descendant of three generations, to personally take charge of this matter in such a secretive manner, it must be no small thing.

"Why don't you just say a little bit about the less important things, and I'll listen first?" Chen Mu suggested cautiously.

Yuanbao nodded slightly: "Quack".

"Oh, so Keelung Road is planning to relocate to neighboring Haizhou... Ah?"

"Such a big thing and you say it's not important?!" Chen Mu wanted to slap himself to death.

Ask, ask, ask, and you've gotten yourself into trouble!
Knowing about such a crucial matter concerning the survival of the Taoist sect, he couldn't even get off the boat if he wanted to!

"Are you doing this on purpose?!" Chen Mu glared at the giant toad.

Yuanbao slowly turned around and turned his backside towards Chen Mu again.

Depend on!
"I can't escape this job of guarding the gate," Chen Mu said, leaning back and lying on the corridor.

What worries him even more is that this remote valley where he is located will soon become a place of trouble!
Infiltrating, assassinating, tracking, and counter-tracking, he almost instantly conceived several stories in his mind, each one incredibly thrilling.

"No, not quickly. It might already be unsafe!"

He suddenly sat up.

The Listening Technique was activated at full capacity, and three crimson feather magic swords soared into the sky.

With auditory and visual coordination, they do not miss any suspicious movements in the surroundings.

His face quickly turned extremely pale.

……

That afternoon, Chen Mu secretly invited Mo Wuzhou to the courtyard through Yuanbao.

"Is someone watching this place from thirty miles away?"

"Are you sure?" Mo Wuzhou asked, his face full of doubt.

The plan has only been going on for a few days, and it's already gone wrong? That can't be right.
"I think I'd better move into your patrol office's dungeon," Chen Mu said with a worried expression.

This so-called mountain dock has only just begun excavation, yet it has already attracted prying eyes; it's too dangerous.

Ok?
Is this guy trying to run away again?
Mo Wuzhou was immediately startled.

"I'll investigate right away!" His words and expression became extremely serious.

Chen Mu looked at Mo Wuzhou with a blank expression.

Didn't you just refuse to believe it? Why are you so...?

“I have studied your experiences over the years.” Mo Wuzhou’s expression was solemn: “Wherever you left, it was either attacked or inexplicably destroyed.”

"Whether big or small, some disasters and calamities will always occur."

“And now you’re even willing to move into the dungeon.”

At this moment, his expression as he looked at Chen Mu became extremely solemn.

Chen Mu: “…”

Hey!
I'm not a jinx!
