Chapter 20: bad news
Shen Ping walked out of the house again.
The warm morning sun was a bit dazzling. He looked at the jujube tree in front of the door, and his breath was full of the smell of jujube flowers. However, before he was immersed in it for a while, the familiar scent of bath water sprinkled on the street.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, what kind of materials do you mix and match the petals you use for bathing? I'm so rich in the upper air outlet!"
he asked with a smile.
It's the first time I've been a neighbor for so many years.
Yu Yan was stunned for a moment, then pinched her waist and twisted her body, "Oh, I'm getting fat today, why don't you come into my room, there's still half a bucket in it, you can smell it well."
Shen Ping stopped fighting immediately, and quarreled with the widow. He had never won, after all, the other party never said anything.
Did not dare to use live ammunition, always lack of confidence.
Yu Yan curled her lips, she knew that the middle-aged neighbor had no firepower.
is preparing to go back to the house.
Shen Ping asked again, "Is Fellow Daoist Yu free?"
"have."
Yu Yan replied, "Why, you're going to Fangshi? Fellow Daoist Shen, there's something wrong with you, it's only been five days."
She couldn't help but look Shen Ping up and down.
Secretly wondered if he had taken the wrong medicine.
Shen Ping said awkwardly, "Fellow Daoist Yu, I'm going to Fangshi to do some business, and the deacon's hall will finish the formalities in two days, and it will be too late if I don't go!"
Yu Yan didn't react for a while, until Shen Ping told her to prepare and go through the formalities together, she widened her eyes, "Shen Ping, you, do you have a place?"
Shen Ping nodded, "Didn't I say that I met an elder last time, so I had the cheek to ask for a spot."
Yu Yan asked suspiciously, "Really?"
"There's no need to lie to you about this."
"Hurry up and prepare. If you hurry up, you can come back for lunch. There should not be many monks who have gone through the formalities in a few days."
Yu Yan suddenly laughed Lingling, her body trembling, "Okay, Fellow Daoist Shen, you are middle-aged, and you have become more and more active. Wait for me, right away!"
Less than half a cup of tea time.
After finishing dressing up, Yu Yan put on a robe and went out again.
"Shared rent."
"Six four, I six and you four."
She said with a smile.
Shen Ping looked into her eyes, without any doubt that if he still followed the previous co-tenancy agreement, the other party would definitely close the door.
"OK."
Yu Yan smiled brightly, "Let's go."
The two came all the way to the deacon hall in Fangshi, without saying anything halfway.
There are not many monks at the entrance of the hall, only a dozen people lined up.
Didn't wait long.
Shen Ping walked in.
Yu Yan waited beside her, her tense nerves calmed down, her eyes flashed with surprise, she never expected that her neighbor Daoyou Shen, who seldom went out, would actually get a place in a small medium-sized courtyard.
To know.
She joined that team, and she fought hard to win it.
But even so, the quota was only given by others, and it could be taken back at any time, and she couldn't even refute it with a word.
"Is there really such a thing as Vanves?"
She subconsciously thought of Shen Ping's situation. It seemed that since the other party got married and took a concubine, life has become better and better.
Now even the seniors who can be given places are getting acquainted.
…
In the hall of the deacon of the outer sect of Jinyangzong.
"Next."
The deacon said with a blank face.
Shen Ping stepped forward and handed out the Jinyangzong wooden tablet.
The deacon glanced at it, and couldn't help sitting up straight, "A quota for Zhenbao Building?"
Shen Ping nodded.
"Which courtyard do you want to rent?"
The deacon's face became more enthusiastic, "The medium-sized small courtyard is divided into upper, middle and lower levels. The upper level is better connected with the spiritual veins. There is a small spirit gathering array in the house, and the rich spiritual energy is second only to the single-family small courtyard in Fang City. .”
"The middle and lower levels are worse."
Shen Ping didn't expect such a classification, he thought quickly in his mind, and then said, "Master Deacon, I will choose a small courtyard house at the lower level."
It was too conspicuous for him to rent an upper-level house on the fourth floor of Qi training, and a middle-level house was actually more suitable, but considering the strength of his wife and concubines, he still chose the lower level.
Although the concentration of aura is almost low, as long as it doesn't cause too many unnecessary guesses, it's worth it.
And he said that he invited an elder. If it is at the upper middle level, then the relationship is not a simple favor.
The deacon looked at Shen Ping more, "Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"good."
The deacon smiled and said, "Pay fifteen middle-grade spirit stones, and just press your fingerprints on this wooden sign. When you enter the house, there will be a formation that will remember your aura. Apart from you, there is no other way." To enter the house, in addition, the wooden sign can be fingerprinted up to five times."
"If it exceeds five times, you need to come here to change a wooden sign and pay more fees."
Shen Ping understood, and hurriedly paid the rent for one year.
Go through the formalities.
The deacon said again, "In mid-June, the small courtyard will officially lift the restrictions, and fellow daoists will be able to move in at that time. The wooden sign has your number plate on it. If it is lost, it can be reissued."
Shen Ping cupped his hands, "Thank you, Deacon, for reminding me."
Walk out of the lobby.
Seeing Yu Yan waiting beside him, he handed out the wooden sign, "It's done, put a fingerprint on it, and you can enter and exit the house freely in the future."
Yu Yanshuang took a snapshot, and said with a smile on his face, "Tsk tsk, if I knew that Fellow Daoist Shen had such a connection, I wouldn't have to fight so hard. That person surnamed Qi tripped me up many times, and last time he used that fellow Daoist Gao to force me to If you want a chance to rent together, hehe, my old lady gave up the opportunity and gave up all the places to that surnamed Qi when going through the formalities!"
"Fifteen middle-grade spirit stones a year!"
She gritted her teeth, "She will have to work hard in the future!"
Fellow Daoist Qi is also at the fifth level of Qi training, but the opponent's aura is obviously not as solid as Yu Yan. If you want to earn fifteen middle-grade spirit stones, you really have to work hard.
As for what direction to work hard.
Then the benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom.
Of course the other party can also find another co-renter, but it may not make Gao Daoist happy.
Yu Yan twitched her lips, "I quit that team, life will be difficult in the future, fellow Daoist Shen, for the sake of our neighbors for many years, you can sell me some talismans cheaply in the future."
Shen Ping said seriously, "Don't worry, I will definitely give it to you according to the market price in Fangshi!"
After speaking, take out two amulets.
"No, old rules."
Yu Yan grabbed it and rolled her eyes, "You're so stingy, when you move to Fangshi, you won't be able to get such a good job in the future!"
Leaving Shen Ping with jet-black hair, he stepped forward gracefully.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, don't go so fast, wait for me!"
…
The following days.
Shen Ping once again entered a boring but fulfilling life.
Control symbols, double cultivation, meditation.
Daily mental and physical exhaustion.
But he was enjoying it.
Mid-May.
News came from the depths of the Yunshan Swamp that the large Yanjin vein was finally completely opened up after a group of monks spared their lives to open the way!
Jin Yangzong immediately dispatched more than ten foundation-building monks and hundreds of disciples to Yunshan Swamp, preparing to establish a safe route on the opened road.
this day.
Fang City's talisman seals, elixir, magic weapon and other prices finally stopped rising, and fell sharply the next day, and the flame talisman directly returned to its original shape.
Shen Ping sighed and didn't eat for two whole meals.
…
