048 I owe you a favor
"You guys talk."
As the blind man said, the man disappeared. He gave the place to Chen Mu and the scholar.
Chen Mu asked on his own initiative, "Do you have something to ask me for?"
The scholar said seriously, "I have something to ask for your help."
"If I can help, I will definitely not refuse."
"Are you in Jinhai?"
Chen Mu's heart moved. This was a very sensitive question. For more than a month, they have been in the Heavenly Palace and exchanged some information from time to time, but they have a tacit understanding and do not inquire about other people's true identities.
It is precisely because of this that the atmosphere in the Heavenly Palace is quite harmonious. Even the blind man, the troll, did not swear to anyone like he did at the beginning.
Today, the scholar came to him and asked him about his position in reality. This was quite abnormal.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the scholar explained, "Don't get me wrong, I want you to find someone for me."
"Yes, I do often do activities in the Jinhai area."
Chen Mu nodded. Everyone knew this. More than a month ago, he asked about zombies here, and others could guess that he was in Jinhai.
In fact, he had some guesses about the origins of the other people in the Heavenly Palace. This can get some information from the accent, some language habits, and things that are accidentally revealed during normal chats.
Like a scholar, he should be located in Luozhou in the south.
The monk is in Tianzhou in the northwest.
The blind man comes from Zhongzhou.
Only the Dragon Girl is not easy to judge, but what is certain is that she comes from a family of officials and has been to many places and has learned a lot.
Moreover, Chen Mu was sure that these four people were not simple in their origins. If they really wanted to check, they might not be able to find out their true identities.
Chen Mu has another identity to protect himself, and he is not worried about the exposure of his true identity, so he simply admits, "Who do you want to find?"
The scholar's expression became solemn, "The man once had the pseudonym Shen Yu and stole an item from our sect. We were searching for his whereabouts. It was not until recently that he was found. Speaking of which, thanks to the bandit brother, there was a man who manipulated zombies around that man and killed a senior brother in our sect."
When it comes to his senior brother being killed, he seems extremely angry.
Chen Mu couldn't help but suddenly realize that no wonder he heard that there was a zombie in Jinhai last time, and that was the reaction.
The scholar continued, "The sect has sent people to arrest him. However, the sea of Jin is too big, and the guy is hiding in the darkness. Even his shadow can't be touched."
Chen Mu asked, "What can I do?"
"I would like to ask you to pay attention to whether there is any suspected existence in Jinhai." The scholar said, "This person's origin is definitely not simple. When he first entered our sect, he pretended to have an identity, but in a few years, he did not reveal any flaws. After investigation, he could not find any clues. Obviously, there was a force behind him to cover it up."
It sounds like a fraud gang.
This matter is quite tricky at first sound, and Chen Mu doesn't want to get involved. However, Jin Hai has such an unstable factor, and you must understand it. If something really happens, you won't be in a hurry.
He only asked Bolan last time that the Ninth Guard had not caught the corpse driver. He either had left Jinhai or was hiding deeply.
Chen Mu asked, "What do you think he will be in Jinhai?"
The scholar said, "This person is extremely capable of making a great deal, so he will definitely not be an ordinary identity. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with Jinhai and have no way to go. I can only try my luck on the street. It is too difficult to find him."
Chen Mu said, "I understand. Tell me about this person's characteristics and I'll pay attention to it."
“Thank you so much.”
The scholar bowed solemnly before saying, "This man is thirty years old, and he is a handsome man, good at speaking and good at speaking, and has the ability to be a lotus flower. He can make the teachers in the sect trust him so much. As for the school of his practice, we don't know, and he has never revealed it in a few years. Everyone thinks he is an ordinary person."
Chen Mu sounded a little wrong. There was a very contradictory point here, but he refused to ask.
The scholar described the person's height and appearance in detail, and finally said solemnly, "The items this person stole from our sect are extremely dangerous. They are relics left by a powerful evildoer in the sixth realm. Once a large amount of blood of the practitioner is absorbed, a blood demon equivalent to the sixth realm of practice may be born. In any case, he cannot succeed."
Chen Mu's eyebrows were thumping when he heard this. He knew that this was difficult, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult. What is that in the sixth realm? I guess he could send him back to the west even if he breathed a sigh of relief.
He wanted to ask, why are there such a dangerous thing in your door?
I'm afraid that the scholar's sect is not a serious and famous sect.
Chen Mu said with a toothache, "I think it's better to let the Ninth Guard and the Sixth Gate handle this matter."
When the scholar heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face, "My master's sect has a deep blood hatred with the Ninth Guard and the Sixth Gate. He will never cooperate with them until the last moment."
He also has a grudge against the Ninth Guard. How many sects does the Ninth Guard have ever made grudges against?
Chen Mu remembered that his grandmother said that the Ninth Guard had a bad reputation, so he couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, he didn't join the Ninth Guard at the beginning. Otherwise, who would know how many potential enemies would be added.
The scholar said, "Now, there is no murder in the Jinhai, so there is no need to worry about the worst possibility."
The so-called worst possibility is that the blood demon in the sixth realm is resurrected.
"Okay, if I find anything, I'll let you know as soon as possible."
"This matter is quite dangerous. Whether it can be done or not, I owe you a favor." Finally, the scholar said solemnly.
Chen Mu was quite satisfied with his attitude. In the Heavenly Palace, they didn’t know each other’s true identities. What maintains the relationship is the four words of mutual benefit. To put it bluntly, it is the exchange of interests.
No one is stupider than anyone else. If you want others to help you for nothing, you will only bankrupt your credit. This mutual aid organization is over.
At least so far, the five people are very wise and carefully maintaining the stability of this small organization.
…………
In the next few days, Chen Mu did not go out, but just modified the The Legend of the Condor Heroes and changed the dynasty and place names.
There have also been nomadic invasions on the historical line of this world. A similar historical period was selected from it and the deliberate transplantation of the Legend of the Condor Heroes was passed.
It took him several days. After revising it, he brought the manuscripts from the previous chapters and asked the editor-in-chief of a newspaper to discuss cooperation.
As for the person the scholar mentioned, he had asked Charlotte to inquire. After all, Charlotte is still professional in finding someone. There is no news yet.
Chen Mu was not in a hurry. He had to take a chance on such a thing. Jinhai was so big, so it was not that easy to find someone who didn’t know his name.
On that morning, he left Crescent Villa in a carriage and came to a tavern by the river, which was the date.
This newspaper is called Jinhai Times. It is a local newspaper in Jinhai. It is nothing to be placed in the country. But it is the best sold in Jinhai.
Chen Muneng made an appointment with his editor-in-chief because the other party was shocked after reading his masterpiece, but because he was a big customer of this newspaper and perhaps one of the biggest customers.
Ten days ago, Xinyue Honeycomb Coal began to place advertisements in newspapers, and spent a lot of money on each issue.
Chen Mu asked someone to let go of the news and said he planned to change to a newspaper to advertise. They became anxious and asked someone to bring a message, saying that he wanted to meet him. He made an appointment with the person here.
Since moving to Crescent Villa, he has subscribed to many newspapers. His current novel style is still a bit weird, traditional, and half-literary.
Chen Mu was worried that these newspapers would not accept novels like him that were written entirely in vernacular. After all, the literacy rate in this era was still very low. The editors in the newspapers were all scholars, and they had some bad habits of self-representation.
Just this person from the Jinhai Times felt that he had to be more open-minded. Chen Mu chose this company and used these methods to make the novel public successfully.
