At dusk, the peak of the sky.

A sharp figure stood on the top of the mountain against the evening breeze.

"The sunset still shines on the skyless wall, and the sunset wind hits the people at dusk!

"Okay!Good!Okay!I didn't expect Brother Mu Bai to have such a poetic sense when he didn't show it on weekdays!!It's really surprising!" Before the words could be reached, another figure came closer.

"Hehe! It made Brother Cheng Yu smile!" the person who called Mu Bai also turned around when he heard the sound and said to the person with a smile.

"Where! I just don't know why Brother Mu Bai invited me to come this time?"

When the man called Mu Bai heard this, he seemed to remember something, his face couldn't help but sink, and he bowed to the other side before saying, "Don't hide it from Brother Chengyu, there is indeed something to ask for!"

Seeing that he was so solemn, the person who came couldn't help frowning, and replied solemnly: "Brother Mu Bai doesn't need to be like this, but it doesn't hurt to say it! If it is useful to get Fu Mou, Fu Mou will do his best!"

The man who called Mu Bai sighed heavily, as if it was difficult to speak, and was silent for a while before continuing: "But I don't know······ Brother Cheng Yu······ Is it ······ Can ······ Lend me some spirit stones?"

plopped, there were suddenly a few strange noises on the opposite side, and only after half a sound did I hear the person on the opposite side say: "Eh, Brother Mu Bai don't make fun of me!

The person called Mu Bai couldn't help but blush, and said again: "That······ Hasn't the rent risen again recently, and my brother can't turn around at this time, so I want to borrow some turnover from Brother Chengyu!"

As if he was worried that the other party would not agree, as soon as he finished speaking, he continued: "Brother Chengyu, don't worry, when it comes over, I will return it to you quickly!

It's just that after he finished speaking, the other side didn't react at all, and when he looked intently, the other side replied with a bitter face: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Brother Mu Bai!"

Seeing him like this, Mu Bai thought of something, so he cautiously asked, "Could it be that Brother Chengyu is also ....... you?"

The other party seemed to be in the words, sighed with a wry smile, nodded and said, "Don't hide it from Brother Mu Bai, I also came here this time with the intention of borrowing money from Brother Mu Bai!"

"Huh?" Mu Bai sighed in surprise.

"Alas, you also know that there has been a lot of trouble in the Heavenly Corpse Road recently, and many people from small sects are afraid of being wiped out, so they have run to the big sects, so that the rent has also risen with it. Let's just talk about my Cuizhu Xuan, it has risen fivefold since the beginning of the year, and it has reached a thousand spirit stones! You say that I, a monk in the foundation building period, how can I get so many spirit stones? Moreover, this one has made me unable to practice my skills now, and I almost went mad!" As soon as Fu Chengyu opened the conversation, he instantly poured out all the bitter water in his stomach!

"That's not it! My Ziyun Xuan is not like this, it has inexplicably risen to one thousand and five, and it can barely be maintained on weekdays, isn't this increase costing people's lives?"

"Alas! How could I have imagined that a monk like us would be reduced to such a state, running around for such a thing! What a waste of the title of a cultivator like us!"

The more they talked, the more sad they became, the more sad they became, and in the end, they couldn't bear it anymore, hugging each other and crying!

.........

At the foot of the mountain, a pair of teenagers were doing evening classes.

"Senior brother, did you hear it, there seems to be someone on the mountain crying, crying so ugly!"

"Noise! If you do evening classes, you have to look like you are doing evening classes, like you are half-hearted, when will you be able to practice qi?" The older boy reprimanded. It's just that after he finished training, he couldn't help but look at the top of the mountain and muttered to himself, "I don't know who it is, this cry is too ugly!"

..........

Purple Cloud Pavilion on the mountainside.

Jiang Yuxin nervously looked at the silent man in front of him and asked, "How is it, have you borrowed it?"

The man raised his head, it was the same person who had been called Mu Bai at the top of the mountain before. Saw

At this time, his eyes were dim, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at the person in front of him who had been with him for half his life, but he didn't know how to speak for a while, and he was silent for a while, and then he just shook his head.

Jiang Yuxin saw him like this, and he already knew that the matter could not be done, so he also sat aside, and said a little ownerlessly: "Then what should I do? Manager Qi will be here later, if we can't pay the rent again, I'm afraid we will be kicked out!"

"Manager Qi will come later, I'll talk to him again! He can give us some more time!"

"Perhaps? How many times has this been, will people still say yes?"

"What are we going to do then? Where can we find so many spirit stones now?"

"It's all your fault that you wanted to lend the spirit stone to that person for some kind of investment. Ten thousand spirit stones, think about how I would have agreed to you doing such a stupid thing in the first place! If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have fallen to this point now!"

"Didn't I also want to earn more and make your life better, and didn't you agree at that time?"

"Alas!" Jiang Yuxin knew that this was not the time to care about these things, so she just sighed and asked him again: "Why don't you borrow it from your parents?" They are guests in Maoshan, and their income is said to be good!"

"Come on, my uncle and sister-in-law are studying the Fa in Shangqing, and their monthly expenses are a lot, how can they have so much spare money for us? I think it's better to borrow from your parents? Isn't your father just promoted to an elder in Wudang, that income must be high!"

"It's not that you don't know in my family, those second ancestors are about to defeat my father, and the only uncle who walks the upper road is also studying in Kongtong, I'm afraid that my father's burden is heavier than yours now!"

"I don't know why your father gave birth to so many losers!" the man muttered quietly.

"Zhang Mubai, what are you talking about?"

"Nothing!"

"Humph!"

At this moment, a golden ray suddenly shot out, and instantly landed outside the door of Ziyun Xuan, and it was actually a big fat man wearing a golden robe with a jade belt around his waist.

"Zhang Daxia, Fairy Jiang!

Although the fat man said so, the man walked into the room without any scruples with a big belly.

"Ah, it turned out that Mr. Qi arrived and couldn't meet him from afar, please forgive me!"

Zhang Mubai saw that Manager Qi had already entered the room, and hurriedly got up to greet him.

"Hmm. How's it going, Zhang Daxia, have you prepared the rent?" Manager Qi didn't do much to deal with it, just looked around the room before asking.

"Eh, Manager Qi, this ......." Zhang Mubai looked embarrassed.

"What? Or not? I said Zhang Mubai, you have a bit of a reputation in this cultivation realm, and you have been in arrears of rent again and again, I'm afraid it's not okay?"

"I know this, but you know, the rent has risen too much recently, and the time is really tight, and we can't get together for a while. Mr. Qi, do you think you can extend it for a few more days?" Zhang Mubai hurriedly stepped forward and said.

Jiang Yuxin also helped by the side: "Yes, Manager Qi, you see that we have not had any bad deeds in arrears before, but the rent has risen too much recently, and we will not be able to make up for a while, why don't you be accommodating for a few more days?"

Manager Qi was unmoved, but his tone became a little colder: "How many days have I been accommodating? Do you know how long I have been accommodating you? Three months, three whole months! Do you know how many spirit stones you have to pay for this? This time, you have to hand over to me whatever you say, if you can't pay it again, there are many people waiting to come in at the foot of the mountain!"

"Mr. Qi, can't you be tolerant for a few more days?" Zhang Mubai pleaded at the end.

"Well, tomorrow I will send someone to collect the house, if you still can't hand over the spirit stone, just wait for me to clean up and get out of the Lingxiao faction!"

Zhang Mubai looked at the distant back, his body seemed to be instantly drained of spiritual power, and he suddenly sat down on the chair!

"What are we going to do?" Jiang Yuxin also collapsed helplessly and cried.

"Dad, Mom, brother, he's bullying me again!" shouted at the shout, a twenty-eight-year-old girl rushed into the room in a panic.

"Zhang Xueyao, you stop for me! I won't let you go if I say anything this time! You're dead!" Then another teenager rushed in!

It was only after the two of them rushed into the room and saw the appearance of Zhang and Jiang that they couldn't help but be stunned before they asked in unison: "Dad, Mom! What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Yuxin cried even more sadly after seeing his two children.

"What should I do? What should I do, what should I do, what should I do, what should I do, what should I do, what

Zhang Mubai saw her like this, knew that he was wrong, and buried his head deeply!

The two who had just returned home were still confused, and asked hurriedly and anxiously: "Dad, Mom!

"Xiao Jia, Xue Yao, come here!"

After Jiang Yuxin cried for a while, she wiped her tears, pulled the two children to her side, and told her about the arrears of rent.

"Ah, how can this be? I have an appointment with a friend tomorrow to step on the autumn!" Zhang Xueyao said with some distraction.

"I also asked a friend to fight with a sword!" Zhang Xiaojia also seemed a little unhappy.

"When is it all and you're still thinking about this?" Zhang Mubai couldn't help but say a little angrily when he heard this.

"Shut up! If it weren't for you, would the kids be like this?" Jiang Yuxin scolded him back at this time.

"Dad, aren't you a hero? Zhang Xueyao still seemed a little incredulous.

"Alas!" Zhang Mubai's old face turned red, and after a long groan, he just sighed helplessly, and lowered his head a little!

........

"Have you heard? Zhang Mubai of Ziyunxuan is going to be driven out of the Lingxiao faction by Chief Manager Qi!"

"Oh, and that matter?"

"It's true, it was said that Zhang Mubai owed three months' rent, and he was driven away by Manager Qi because he couldn't pay it!"

"Alas, too! Recently, the corpse road has made a lot of trouble, this rent has risen so much that even Zhang Daxia can't pay the rent, how do you say you will live this day? How can this road be repaired?"

"Shhhh

While everyone was talking, Zhang Mubai's family walked over with their heads down, followed by the pot-bellied Manager Qi.

After seeing a few people approaching, Manager Qi arched his hand to everyone before saying: "Everyone, it's not that I, Qi, am unkind, it's really Zhang Daxia who has been in arrears for too long this time! The Lingxiao Secret Realm is not owned by me alone, and I am just managing the finances of the sect on my behalf! I hope you can take this as a warning and pay off the fees in time, and don't follow in the footsteps of Zhang Daxia!"

After finishing, he said to Zhang Mubai: "Zhang Daxia, this time I will only punish you for confiscating your family property and expelling you from the mountain gate! This is already considered to be benevolent and righteous to you! I hope you can learn this lesson and don't do it again next time!"

Zhang Mubai saw that Manager Qi finished speaking, and hurriedly saluted him.

"Chief Qi is in charge of the warning, Mu Bai remembers it in his heart!"

"That's fine, then you can go! The Lingxiao Sect welcomes you back at any time, of course, provided that you have enough spirit stones!" Seeing that he had a good attitude, Chief Manager Qi nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand generously and said.

Zhang Mubai was instantly amnesty, and he didn't stop much, and walked towards the foot of the mountain with his family without looking back, and only after leaving the mountain gate did he slowly slow down.

"Dad, can we still come back?"

Zhang Mubai turned around and looked at the Ling Xiao faction in the clouds and mist, and was silent for a long time before he gritted his teeth and said, "We will be back!"

"Worship you big-headed ghost! your face has made you lose your face!" Jiang Yuxin hit him at this time.

"Ahh

"Get out!"

..........

"Dad, where are we going?"

"The world!"

"Ah, have we all come to this point?"

"You know a fart, this is called Da Yin faintly in the city, experience the world!"

"I've trained you big-headed ghost!"

"Eh, wife, why are you beating again! Don't fight, don't beat! Listen to me!"
