Chapter 18: A Boring Life

Previous Chapter

"Ah~ha~"

Chu Ge lay on the bed and yawned, "Nan Qiao, isn't it time to collect rent today?"

"That's right!" Nan Qiao Suyi seemed a little excited, "You have to get ready." ”

"Huh?"

Chu Ge was very puzzled, what else should I do to prepare for rent collection? Just remind it on WeChat.

"First, change your clothes. ”

According to Nan Qiao Suyi's suggestion, Chu Ge changed into a vest, shorts, and slippers.

"Then, there is the snakeskin bag. ”

Chu Ge found the snakeskin bag that he had just bought a few days ago at the instigation of Nan Qiao Suyi.

"Finally, there's the keychain. ”

Chu Ge stood in front of the mirror, looked at the set of keys he was carrying, and then looked at the clothes on his body, "Why are you dressed like this?"

"Collect rent, have a sense of ceremony. Nan Qiao Suyi was very satisfied with Chu Ge's current appearance.

"Forget it, I can't come. ”

As he spoke, Chu Ge threw down the snakeskin bag.

"Hmph, I can't even do this little thing, what do I want you to do!" Nan Qiao Suyi said.

"Then, why don't you come?" Chu Ge thought of the best way to solve this problem.

Whoever proposes it, let whoever comes, it's over.

"Iβ€”I can't. Nan Qiao Suyi flinched shamefully.

"Come on, come on, how can a man say no. Chu Ge's smile gradually became perverted.

"Then I'm not a man. ”

"Uh......" Chu Ge froze in place, "Nan Qiao, I didn't expect you to be a man in order to avoid collecting rent." ”

"Hmphβ•―^β•°What's the matter!" Nan Qiao Suyi said indifferently.

Chu Ge had an expression that the old father really had nothing to do with his son, "Then I can only come." ”

Chu Ge, who had let go of his shame, picked up the snakeskin bag that he had just thrown aside, and turned around and went downstairs.

Since you are wearing sandals, you can't do the same as usual, so you have to change your walking position.

The best slippers are better than kicking and walking.

"Da Er Da ~ Da Da ~ "

"You sit here and sing Allegro!" Nan Qiao Suyi couldn't help but complain.

"It's the most comfortable way to walk. Chu Ge said.

"I don't know if it's comfortable or not, I always feel like something is wrong. Nan Qiao thought about it.

"Eh, I don't know what's wrong, just leave it alone!" Chu Ge said.

Nan Qiao Suyi nodded, what she said was right.

I don't have a heart or lungs, and I'm not tired of living.

Chu Ge is different from those who are often building houses, he only has a few houses, after all, there is no demolition at home, let alone any industry.

The location of the houses is also different, there are all in the east, west, north, south, and middle, and it can be said that they are scattered in all corners of Shangyue City.

The place I'm going to go today, or to satisfy Nan Qiao Suyi's playful heart, is a house located in the South Third Ring Road.

The reason why I chose this place is completely because of the extra room.

The house is a tall building with twenty floors.

I haven't come to live in it before, and most of them are entrusted to real estate companies.

The middle five floors were left and rented to some people with eyes.

There is nothing special about these five floors, that is, each room has a small formation that Chu Ge used to practice his hands.

The function is simple, it is just to gather spirits.

It's just that in this era of the end of the Dharma, it's very difficult to gather anything.

Most of the people who live here come from other places to work in Shangyue City.

There are very few, like Chu Ge, who are also in the cultivation world, but they are all loose cultivators.

There is no complete teacher's inheritance, or the lineage sect is no longer there, or you have accidentally entered a secret realm that has been opened and stepped into the path of cultivation.

Such monks are all casual cultivators.

"Brother Chu!" a casual cultivator who lived here opened the door and saw Chu Ge, "Why do you have time to come here today?"

"It's not time to collect rent today, it's not. Chu Ge said as he walked inside.

Casual cultivation is a bit messy, collecting rent? Isn't it just to send money to the card every month?

Looking at Sanxiu's blank expression, Chu Ge didn't know how to explain, "Ahem, how are you doing?"

"Not really. Sanxiu closed the door and made a pot of tea, "I heard recently that there are rumors of hauntings on Zhengguang Road. ”

"Huh?" Chu Ge motioned for him to continue.

"About half a month ago, I had a fellow villager who set up a stall in a ghost market, and he said that there was a rich businessman who seemed to be looking for someone who could exorcise ghosts. ”

San Xiu lowered the voice of the TV a little, "You also know a lot about this kind of thing, Brother Chu, so I didn't pay attention to it." ”

Chu Ge nodded.

The main responsibility of the Division of Evil Suppression is to resolve unstable factors in the spiritual world, such as "demon cultivators" and monks who have made mistakes.

As for the usual haunted things, there are many true and false things, and they can't be managed for a while, and ordinary monks can also solve them, so the Evil Suppression Division has delegated this kind of thing to these scattered cultivators.

It is said that it is decentralized, but in fact, it is basically in a state of ignorance.

But privately, they all took such commissions.

Chu Ge is no exception.

However, the general commission is not worth doing.

"Yesterday, I went to the ghost market again, and I wanted to buy something......"

Speaking of this, Sanxiu paused.

"But I heard that someone was hurt. ”

"The injured ones are the five people who took the commission. ”

"What is the strength of those five people?" asked Chu Ge.

"There is a leader of the sixth layer of qi refining, and the other four people are all from the third and fourth layers of qi refining. ”

At the beginning, due to the general trough in the cultivation world, the Evil Suppression Division basically accepted people as soon as they saw them.

Over the years, with the emergence of the budding resurrection of aura, the standard for the subduing of evil spirits has been repeatedly raised.

To this day, the lowest strength standard is the fifth layer of Qi refining.

There are also other assessments.

The sixth layer of Qi refining is basically in the state of a novice in the Evil Suppression Division.

So this incident, it may seem tricky, but it's nothing at all.

"In this way, there is really something unclean. Chu Ge made up his mind.

Unclean things, hauntings, generally the same thing.

But in this era, the legendary heavenly court and the underworld are nowhere to be found, and whether reincarnation exists has become a mystery.

More monks think that it doesn't exist at all.

In the spiritual world, it is generally believed that these unclean things are caused by residual thoughts and circumstances.

Sanxiu nodded, indeed.

"How are those guys doing?"

"I wasn't hurt much. Sanxiu carefully recalled what his fellow villagers had said, "Oh, yes! They said they seemed to see that thing, and it looked like a woman. ”
