Chapter 425: Divine Power

By the campfire.

Niu Sanmiao glared at the others fiercely: "Where are your jade dews!"

Shi Dechun and the others quickly took out the gourds hanging around their waists, which were collected by them from staying up late last night and taking time out during the day.

Niu Sanmiao said nothing, took the yellow gourds one by one, and used transparent beads to absorb the jade dew to make jade dew beads.

As he collected them, he walked to a short man.

The man had a smile on his face: "Master Niu, today I am only looking for the Yin spirits, and the jade dew is not enough. Can you take it slowly?"

Niu Sanmiao raised his mouth corners when he heard the words, revealing a malicious smile: "Take it slowly? Give me a reason!"

As he said that, he reached for the whip on his waist.

The short and thin man immediately sweated on his forehead and couldn't help looking at Chen Mu.

What are you looking at me for?

Chen Mu looked puzzled.

Before he could figure out the meaning of the other person's eyes.

The other party gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, rubbed his face hard, and said sincerely: "Master Niu, your horns are so beautiful!"

"Look, can Yu Lu take a break tonight?"

Chen Mu: "..."

I'm kidding, you really believe it!

Snap!

Niu Sanmiao was so angry that he laughed, and whipped the short and thin man on the arm, making him scream.

"I hate it most when people talk about my horns!"

He said while whipping, and the short and thin man jumped and ran around the campfire.

After a while, Niu Sanmiao retracted the whip and went to the next campfire with a cold face.

After the people left, the short and thin man came back to the campfire again, staring at Chen Mu with a sad face: "You said the same thing last night, why can't you do it today?"

Chen Mu frowned and thought for a while, and said seriously: "Maybe you are not sincere enough."

Shi Dechun, who was next to him, twitched his face when he heard it.

This little bald guy is lying with his eyes open.

What's more, he didn't expect that someone would actually believe it? !

Looking at the smiling little bald guy next to him, he instinctively wanted to stay away. But when he moved two steps to the side, he turned around and found that the little bald guy was still beside him, as if he had never moved.

Shi Dechun felt his eyebrows twitching.

Chen Mu smiled: "Old Shi, the weather is very cold, it's warmer to squeeze together."

Shi Dechun rolled his eyes and sighed resignedly sitting by the campfire.

It was just that when the other party was scolded by Niu Sanmiao last night, he quietly moved his butt. It's human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. Why is it still on me? Are you so narrow-minded?

"You didn't say anything bad about me in your heart?" Chen Mu said suddenly.

Shi Dechun shivered and shook his head repeatedly.

Old sly guy!

Chen Mu smiled and shook his head.

He turned his head and raised his chin towards the bonfire not far away: "What's going on with those strange-looking people?"

The bonfire was far away from the crowd, and four or five people with strange looks were sitting next to it.

Some of them only had one big eye, some had two arms under their ribs, and one had a pair of big wings full of black feathers on his back.

Niu Sanmiao, who was ferocious just now, was now smiling and talking by the bonfire, with a completely different face.

"What else can I do? They are gifted and can practice magical powers."

"They will definitely be recruited into the Jigu City as ghost soldiers. They have a bright future. Of course, Niu Tou has to curry favor with them in advance." Shi Dechun said in a low voice.

"Magic power?" Chen Mu became interested.

Shi Dechun sighed: "This Wangchuan River is like a sieve. Those who can crawl out of the river are always different."

"Special appearance means special talents."

"They say this is a reward from Wangchuan River, but unfortunately we are unlucky and don't get favored by Wangchuan River."

"But I think you might be able to do it." Shi Dechun thought of Chen Mu's performance when he confused Niu Sanmiao last night, and couldn't help but speak carefully to test.

Chen Mu glanced at the old sly guy: "You are wrong."

Shi Dechun, who was rolling his eyes just now, suddenly looked dull: "Yes, I am wrong."

It took a while to come back to his senses, but he scratched his head as if he had drunk a memory: "Where was I just talking about?"

"Ghost soldiers?" Chen Mu kindly reminded.

"Yes, ghost soldiers."

"Not just Jigu City, all cities where ghosts gather have been recruiting ghost soldiers."

"Did you see that bull head? He is the ghost soldier of Jigu City. I guess this guy is not very strong, so he was arranged to look for ghosts by the Wangchuan River."

"Is there still a war in the underworld?" Chen Mu frowned.

Otherwise, why would such a large number of ghost soldiers be recruited?

"I don't know about this, and I haven't heard the bull head mention it." Shi Dechun shook his head.

His information was gathered from the chats in the team, and most of it was said by Niu Sanmiao.

Chen Mu nodded silently. When he arrived in Jigu City, he had to ask around and couldn't get involved in the dispute without knowing it.

After looking at the strange shapes beside the campfire not far away, Chen Mu took out the yellow gourd and held it in front of him, closed his eyes and chanted the dew-collecting spell, and began to brush experience.

I don't know what kind of monster Tianyao Yunshen is, but it is obviously related to the ghost, otherwise the dew-collecting spell cannot be practiced.

Along with a series of strange syllables, a strange force gathered around, like an open spider web, and the tiny dew particles in the air continued to absorb and condense on it. Not long after, a large dew droplet of corn was successfully condensed. As soon as the spell stopped, it fell into the yellow gourd with a thud.

Put the yellow gourd in front of the nose, and the tempting smell of broth immediately spread in the nasal cavity.

Chen Mu couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"It is said that the taste of Jade Dew varies, and everyone smells the smell he likes the most."

"But a drop of water smells like broth, isn't this too outrageous?"

"Speaking of Yuan Tang, I almost vomited after drinking it. I was thinking about changing it to other flavors all day long. How come it became my favorite smell?"

Looking up and pouring the freshly collected dew into his mouth, Chen Mu couldn't help grinning.

"And you added chives?!"

"Fuck!"

As the Jade Dew entered his mouth, a trace of warmth spread in his stomach, but it soon dissipated.

Chen Mu didn't care, and continued to condense and pour it into his mouth. After drinking half a gourd of Jade Dew, his whole body became warm. The cold wind at night blew on his body, and he no longer felt cold.

"Is he really a Yin spirit?" Chen Mu shook his head and sighed.

He can practice the dew collection spell and eat Jade Dew as a meal. What Yin spirits can do, he can do in his true form of Tian Yao.

"Well, think on the bright side, at least I don't have to worry about being discovered as a living person."

...

In the next few days, Chen Mu and his group, led by Niu Tou, kept wandering around the nearby Wangchuan River.

Chen Mu also followed them, but he kept hiding behind Shi Dechun to play the Dew Collection Mantra to gain experience.

Niu Sanmiao saw it several times but didn't care.

He knew that picking up Yin spirits by the river was just a matter of luck.

Since Chen Mu could hand in the Jade Dew on time every day, he didn't care anymore.

In this way, Chen Mu became more and more relaxed, silently chanting mantras to gain experience every day.

When he was bored, he would look at the scenery of Wangchuan River, chat with Shi Dechun by the way, and try to understand and explore various aspects of the Yin and Ming world.

...

That day, everyone had just returned to the campfire camp.

Not long after sitting, the four or five strange-looking people around the campfire started to exclaim.

Everyone was immediately attracted.

The guy with only one big eye between his eyebrows was flushed and excited. Niu Sanmiao also came over and said something excitedly.

Then, facing the sight of everyone, the one-eyed guy took a deep breath and held it hard. As he held it hard, his only eye suddenly lit up with a scarlet light.

Now the whole camp was in an uproar, and everyone came over to watch the excitement. Shi Dechun also jumped up and came forward with envy on his face.

"Awesome, this is obviously awakening the magic power?"

"He will definitely go to Jiugu City to be a ghost soldier, maybe he can get a small official right away."

"The future is promising, and the future is promising..."

Chen Mu also followed Shi Dechun curiously and got closer to watch. He had only heard about it before, but this was the first time he saw the ghost awakening the magic power up close.

Amid the praises of the crowd, the one-eyed man became more and more excited, and took a deep breath again and held it hard. Then the scarlet eyeball began to flicker, and after flickering several times in a row, it suddenly released a pale green light.

Poof!

Red and green at times, is this the awakening of the traffic light magic? !

Haha!

Caught off guard, Chen Mu almost laughed out loud.

"Hey, green, green, green."

At this moment, there were exclamations all around.

The one-eyed man raised his head proudly, almost laughing with his hands on his hips.

Chen Mu covered his face, his stomach hurt from holding back laughter.

...

After returning to the campfire for a long time, everyone couldn't help but talk about it.

And not far away, near the one-eyed man, there were still people praising him.

Shi Dechun's face was full of envy: "If only I could do this."

"You want to turn into a traffic light too?" Chen Mu looked strange.

"Traffic light? What is that?" Shi Dechun was puzzled.

"It's okay, I'm praising people." Chen Mu said happily.

Are you kidding me!

Although he didn't understand, he knew from the other party's expression that he was obviously fooling people again.

Shi Dechun said with a bad face: "I want to awaken my magical power."

"Let's not talk about the prestige for now, at least I don't have to work hard to condense the Jade Dew."

"Maybe the Bull Head will directly waive the toll, and it is more likely that someone will offer the Jade Dew they have condensed."

"For example, the skinny monkey Yin Liu." Shi Dechun raised his chin towards the distance and curled his lips in disdain.

Chen Mu couldn't help but look over, and just happened to see a short and thin man handing over a yellow gourd with a flattering face. That man was Yin Liu who was whipped by Niu Sanmiao before.

"There are such people who are good at speculation everywhere." Shi Dechun sighed.

Chen Mu glanced and stopped paying attention. His experience in the Dew Collection Spell has reached more than 3,000. If he works harder tonight, he may be able to exceed 4,000. By then, collecting Jade Dew will become easier.

He had inquired before that Jade Dew Pearls are both currency and food in Jigu City, so he attaches great importance to the Dew Collection Spell.

"I'm afraid he'll use us as a stepping stone for promotion." Shi Dechun leaned over to Chen Mu and whispered.

"What do you mean?" Chen Mu frowned.

"Yin Liu was thinking about picking up ghosts to make up for his travel expenses all day, and he didn't practice the dew-collecting spell at all." Shi Dechun became excited: "With the little jade dew he condensed, one more or one less won't make much difference, how can that person look at us differently?"

"You mean..."

"I guess that guy is probably trying to take advantage of the power of others and plunder our jade dew for that person."

Chen Mu couldn't help but look into the distance.

Sure enough, Yin Liu was talking to the one-eyed man with a smug look on his face. And the one-eyed man began to look at the people around the campfire.

Chen Mu frowned immediately.

Trouble.
