After all, there are tens of thousands of square meters in the Yanling Mansion, with pavilions, pools, and gardens.

There are dozens of rooms, and the restoration is decent, quite the style of a large family.

It can be seen that the owner at that time, General Xiao Heilang, although he belonged to the lower generals, he also lived in the middle class, and he was much more comfortable than ordinary people.

The woman next door was named Xiao Wei Cifang, and when she saw that Tian Danhe and the others really lived in the courtyard, she happily came over to help this gang there.

Cao Hanyan did not refuse, and after cleaning up, he warmly invited Xiao Wei Cifang to dinner.

"Sister Cifang, let's dine together, you are alone, you don't have to be busy anymore."

Sister Cifang was also not polite, and sat down generously.

After all, this place has been desolate for a long time, and now it has popularity, and I am no longer lonely.

The ingredients were just bought by Tian Danhe outside, and they were cooked by Fang Bailing.

The dishes made are naturally the food that the heavenly demons are used to, where does Cao Hanyan dare to put out the diet of the human race.

During the meal, Sister Cifang asked:

"Lord, this yard is big enough, and I suggest you find some servants to do the work, so that you can concentrate on your business.

I can put you in touch if you need to, after all, I've lived here for decades and I have some connections."

Cao Hanyan and the others had already taken off the black scarf wrapped around their faces, and said with a smile:

"Not for now, there will be some people from my hometown."

The climate of the Heavenly Demon Realm is different from that of other human realms, and the sun here is very soft, and it is not sunny at all.

And it is cloudy all year round, so there is no need to worry about skin problems.

It's no wonder that after coming to the Heavenly Demon Realm, all the Heavenly Demon Clansmen here did not wrap themselves in black robes like they did in the Nine Heavens.

Fang Bailing asked Xiao Wei Cifang:

"Sister Cifang, don't you have anyone else in your family?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Wei Cifang's expression suddenly dimmed, and there were tears rolling in his eyes:

"To tell you the truth, I also had a son who served in Prince Yeluo's legion.

Not long ago, there was bad news that my son had died in the High Realm.

Pity him for being only twenty years old, and he didn't even say anything to his daughter-in-law, so he went, leaving me, an old woman, alone."

As he spoke, he sighed again and said:

"Fortunately, I also have a younger brother who works as a shopkeeper at the Suncheon Inn, and occasionally comes to see me.

But now that you are neighbors, the old woman will never be lonely again."

Cao Hanyan and the three of them glanced at each other in surprise, but they didn't expect to meet the sister of the shopkeeper of the Shuntian Inn here.

The three of them quickly calmed down and did not dare to say anything about Prince Ye Luo.

Now that he has just shaken off the search of the army of the City Lord's Mansion, he can't reveal the identity of the pretending General Yujia at all.

Cao Han flue:

"As long as Sister Cifang has nothing to do, you can come and visit the door, we welcome you."

For a lower-class person like the Heavenly Demon Clan, Cao Hanyan didn't have much hostility.

Since you want to lurk in the Heavenly Demon Realm, it is necessary to interact with ordinary people.

That night, after sending away the dragon and the second fang, Cao Hanyan said to Bailing and Tian Danhe:

"This courtyard is indeed good, the only drawback is that there is no cultivation room and escape passage.

In the future, there will be hidden personnel of the Qimen Holy Army who will come here to contact or settle down, and there is no secret room as a cover, so it is very inconvenient to discuss things.

So, I decided to build a larger escape room and two escape routes in the back garden at night.

In a moment, the two of you will go to explore and design the escape room and escape route, and then we will act together."

Fang Bailing and Tian Danhe were very efficient, and they completed the exploration in less than a quarter of an hour, and then designed a secret room with two hundred square meters and two hidden escape routes.

One escape route is connected to the secret room, and the other is built

Standing in Cao Hanyan's bedroom.

Excavating secret rooms and passages is not too easy for high-level martial artists like Cao Hanyan and the others.

After Cao Hanyan and the three of them laid down three prohibitions, they began to excavate.

The three of them have their own division of labor, Cao Hanyan is in charge of the secret room, and Fang Bailing and Tian Danhe are each in charge of a passage.

There is a sword in his hand, and the Dao Qi is sufficient, and as soon as the sword goes down, the secret room that meets the requirements appears in front of him.

Only the passage is a little more complicated.

In order to get the escape passage outside the city and not make the strong people in the city feel it, the passage must be dug very deep, so it will be much more laborious.

The dirt was collected by the three of them in the space treasures, and then quietly went out of the city, came to the uninhabited mountains where stones could be taken, and dumped the soil in low-lying places.

Then he took the stone with his sword and took it back to strengthen the secret room and passage.

The final process is to set up a formation in the secret room and the entrance and exit of the passage.

Cao Hanyan had also learned the arrangement of the formation from the high-level formation mage of the Divine Spirit Clan before, and now his level could be called a tenth-order great array mage.

The formation that was laid out was not even a low-level powerhouse in the Saint Venerable Realm.

For the sake of safety, Cao Hanyan arranged a powerful protective formation in the Smoke Spirit Mansion, which had the dual functions of defense and attack.

After doing all this, Fang Bailing and Tian Danhe went to rest, while Cao Hanyan quieted down, waiting for Yun Feng's reply.

Calculating the time, Yunfeng's reply should be eight or nine or ten.

Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, Cao Hanyan received a summons from Yunfeng.

In the letter, Yun Feng praised Cao Hanyan's actions, and did not hesitate to adopt Cao Hanyan's suggestion, and let the people of the Demon Slayer Legion use various methods to secretly infiltrate the Heavenly Demon Realm.

Yunfeng told thousands of people, and ten thousand instructed Cao Hanyan to pay attention to safety.

At the same time, the joint code for communicating with Cao Hanyan was set as:

The wind comes and the flowers swing the willows, and the smoke goes to the people to go upstairs.

and asked Cao Hanyan to arrange a contact location and send him back in time.

Reading the contact code, Cao Hanyan couldn't help but smile slightly, and his heart was sweet.

I didn't expect that my father-in-law was still a poet, and he could embed the names of the two in the poem, and he was also full of lovesickness, which made people think of the master.

After thinking about it gently, Cao Hanyan took out the biography again and wrote:

"Ningcheng City West Bitter Water Lane Yanling Mansion."

The messenger was quickly issued, with Cao Hanyan's longing.

Cao Hanyan knew that this was only the first step to lurk in the Heavenly Demon Realm.

There are still many unknown risks waiting for you.

The identity of General Yuga is temporarily unusable.

The new identity is from the merchant of Star Season City.

Imako is the eldest lady of the Yamada family, a small family in Jicheng, and can be regarded as a black beauty in the Heavenly Demon Clan.

This eldest lady is capable and business-minded, and she has supported the Yamada family.

After coming to Ningcheng for more than half a month, the son did not buy a shop, but temporarily rented the utility room of the inn to pile up the purchased daily necessities, and then sent them to Jicheng through the freight station, and his father Yamada was responsible for receiving them.

Although the business is not large, it is quite smooth and can make some difference.

From the soul collection, Cao Hanyan obtained a lot of information, including the population, geography, culture, customs, garrisons, and cultivation circles of Ningcheng and Jicheng.

At the same time, he also learned about some daily necessities, low-level spirit grasses, and pills.

Compared to Ning Cheng, Ji Cheng was much smaller, and the living materials were relatively scarce, and the low-level spirit grass and pills needed by low-level cultivators were also scarce resources.

The focus is on daily necessities, and the business of low-level spirit grass and pills has not yet been done.

From her memory, she knew that she was ready to consider it after she gained a firm foothold in Ningcheng.

But Cao Hanyan felt that he should rent a shop and really start the business, so that he could have a better cover

。

The next day, the three of them went to Ruyi Street, a more prosperous commercial street, to look for a shop.

This street is indeed a place for business, and various shops are lined up, including the powerful Yitian Commercial Bank, which also occupies half of the street on Ruyi Street.

It's just that at present, the Heavenly Demon Realm is in retreat, and the number of people coming and going on the streets is two-thirds less than before, and the business of each store is very depressed.

Looking at the wanted notices of General Yu Jia posted on the street, Cao Hanyan and the three couldn't help laughing.

However, it was precisely because they reacted quickly and wittily avoided the search of the City Lord's Mansion army that they avoided these troubles.

The three of them soon found a shop on the other side of the street that was about to be sold.

This shop is about 20 square meters in front of the street, and it is neither big nor small.

The focus is on a warehouse of about 50 square meters and several houses behind the shop.

This is too much in line with Cao Hanyan's inner thoughts, and he immediately stepped forward to ask an old man who was dozing off in the store:

"Senior, is this shop going to be sold?"

The old man's dream saliva had already dripped to his chest, and when he suddenly heard someone asking, he wiped his mouth and said happily:

"Of course it is, do you want to buy it?"

Cao Hanyan smiled and said:

"How much are you going to sell?"

The old man stretched out a finger and said:

"One hundred divine jades, this shop is yours."

Cao Hanyan pretended to be surprised and said:

"So expensive?"

The old man's eyes widened unhappily, and he said angrily:

"Is it expensive? If only a year ago, my shop would have sold at least a thousand Divine Jades.

If it weren't for the fact that the business was light and life was not good, who would be willing to sell the shop in this prime location?

If you want it with peace of mind, you will be given two divine jades, and you only need to pay me ninety-eight divine jades.

What do you think?"

Cao Hanyan calculated that the price was about the same, and the old man was quite honest, and he didn't ask for a price, so he said:

"Okay, I'll buy it, you can bring the title deed and the house deed, and we'll sign the contract."

When the old man heard this, he smiled happily, and immediately took out the title deed and the house deed, and the two parties signed a contract and stamped their handprints, and the shop successfully changed hands.

After a simple tidy-up, Cao Hanyan named the shop Sihai Grocery Store.

A very ordinary name, plus the things you run are also very ordinary, so naturally it will not attract people's attention.

Tian Danhe went to the Shuofang Inn to take out the goods that had been stored in the utility room before, put them in the shop, and the business officially began.

With these covers, Cao Hanyan and the three of them successfully settled in the Heavenly Demon Realm.

Cao Hanyan and Tian Danhe guarded the shop, while Fang Bailing stayed in the Yanling Mansion and waited.

Five days later, five uninvited guests came to the Smoke Spirit Mansion at once.
