Chapter 36 It's easy to spend money, but it's hard to make money

The starry sky is gone.

All is calm again.

Yang Changfu suddenly collapsed to the ground, his face was pale and his expression was sluggish, obviously having lingering feelings about what had just happened.

Although the "Heart Gu" had been eliminated, and although Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin's divine thoughts had quickly withdrawn from his consciousness world, Yang Changfu still had the illusion that "my body does not belong to me".

Shangguan Jian also took a deep breath, and his mind finally returned to the real world.

She glanced at Gu Xu beside her, thinking of the vast starry sky and the modified "Lower Mask Mantra", a lot of questions popped up in her heart.

However, after hesitating for a moment, what she finally said was a "thank you".

Because she knew that if Gu Xu hadn't reached out in time, I was afraid that she would have been sinking into a sea of negative emotions and would be unable to extricate herself.

At that point, the situation will become very reactive.

Gu Xu smiled faintly and responded, "You're welcome. If it weren't for the fact that you came to show me the house, I wouldn't have gotten into such trouble. ”

His gaze was calm and deep.

No matter how hard Shangguan Jian observed, he couldn't find his mind in it.

"It's so unpredictable!" She thought to herself.

When she saw Gu Xu on Luo Sishou's bronze mirror for the first time, she only felt that this young man was very good-looking and talented.

But every time they meet after that, such as the test on the Laoshan Ruins, such as escaping death from the catastrophe of Qingzhou Mansion, such as facing a powerful opponent in the Lantern Festival Ring Competition, such as today's battle in the world of consciousness...... He always brings "surprises" and shows amazing means.

As for Shi Xiaohan, he finally relaxed the tense heartstrings.

For a period of time just now, she had been in a nervous mood, and she was always ready to run back to the Yamen of the Exorcism Division to report the news, for fear that Gu Xu would encounter an accident in the dangerous confrontation of divine thoughts.

- If she could also use the sword technique in the world of consciousness, she would have brandished the "Kungo Knife" and joined the battle with great momentum.

Until now, she breathed a sigh of relief, took two steps forward, and a pair of bright almond eyes turned into a crooked crescent.

"Gu Xu, how is the battle going?" She asked.

"We have successfully eliminated the Gu worms in Mr. Yang's sea of knowledge," Gu Xu replied, "But the enemy behind the scenes is too hidden, and we can't find his trace for the time being, and we still need to send people from the Demon Exorcism Division Yamen to do further investigation." ”

At this time, businessman Yang Changfu finally held on to the pillar beside him and slowly got up from the ground.

He bowed his head and thanked the monks of the Exorcism Division in a slightly trembling voice.

"Without the help of a few adults, I really don't know how long my unfortunate life would last."

At the same time, he also took out a stack of silver tickets from his pocket, stuffed them into Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin's hands, and said, "Be careful, please smile!" ”

But Shangguan Jin immediately shook his head and refused with a serious expression.

She said that everything that happened in the courtyard today had been entered into the file of the Exorcism Division as an anomalous event. According to the regulations of the Great Qi Exorcism Division, officials are not allowed to accept bribes from the people in the course of performing their tasks.

"In addition, Mr. Yang, I am afraid that there is another hidden story behind today's incident," Shangguan Jian continued, "In the next period of time, the Exorcism Division will also send people here to investigate and look for clues, I hope you can actively cooperate." Please forgive me for any inconvenience this may cause. ”

Yang Changfu was silent for a few seconds, then raised his head and asked, "My lord, from today onwards, I shouldn't experience those unlucky things again?" ”

Shangguan Jin glanced at Gu Xu beside him.

Seeing Gu Xu nodded, she replied with a smile: "Theoretically, not." Of course, things like a sluggish business are not just related to feng shui. You still need to deal with the other problems yourself. ”

…………

The problem of bad luck has been solved, and Yang Changfu will naturally not sell real estate at a low price.

In addition, according to the laws of the Great Qi Dynasty, before the mastermind behind the scenes is caught, this courtyard house, as the location of the crime, will be temporarily restricted from trading.

So if Gu Xu wants to buy a house, he can only choose another place.

This made him feel a little pity.

Because it was difficult for him to buy such a cheap Zhaoyuan in other places in the capital.

Fortunately, after solving the feng shui problem and the "heart Gu" in Yang Changfu's body, he was able to receive a meritorious reward, which could barely make up for the mental loss he missed the cheap house.

In addition, after experiencing the baptism of negative emotions just now, he not only created a new divine consciousness spell "Xingyuan" on the basis of the "Eclipse", but also had a deeper understanding of the fourth realm "Wangxiangtai".

He believed that when he went back to cultivate tonight, he would be able to continue to take a big step forward on the ladder of "Homesick Ridge".

In the end, after repeated trade-offs and comparisons, Gu Xu bought the house in Yanqingfang.

It is close to Luoshui and surrounded by trees, and the scenery is beautiful and pleasant.

Although there are quite a few mansions of the powerful in the vicinity.

But Gu Xu thought about it and felt that he shouldn't spend too much time at home in the future, this house should be just a decoration many times, and he should rarely have the opportunity to intersect with his neighbors.

Of course, the most critical factor for him is the price.

The price of this room is 480 taels of silver, which is much cheaper than the one in Sishun Fang.

In addition to deducting the housing allowance of the Exorcism Division, he also had to pay three hundred taels of silver.

Of course, today he only needs to pay a hundred taels of silver, and he can settle the rest in installments at a later date.

Seeing that he was strapped for money, Shi Xiaohan reached out very righteously and said that he would help him pay half of the cost - as long as Gu Xu didn't mind that she often came to the door to eat.

Gu Xu smiled and rejected her kindness.

Investing in buying a house is not the same as sending pills after all. In case her father, Shi Qianhu, knew about this, maybe he would kill the capital from Laizhou Mansion.

…………

"In this Luojing City, it's not easy to make money, but it's really fast to spend money!"

Half an hour later, Gu Xu sat in the carriage returning to the Yamen of the Exorcism Division, and said silently in his heart.

The newly purchased house is not ready to move in for the time being.

It will also take some time to renovate its lintels and stairs in accordance with the housing construction regulations of the Great Qi Dynasty.

At this moment, the silver ticket earned at the Lantern Festival Ring Tournament had left him and fell into the pocket of the original owner of the house.

Gu Xu sighed.

He deeply felt that if he wanted to live comfortably and comfortably in Luojing City, it would definitely not work to rely on the salary of the Exorcist Division alone.

On the one hand, the position of "Visiting Teacher of Longmen Academy" mentioned to him by Luo Sishou was idle and well-treated, and he had to find a way to get it.

On the other hand, the capital is different from Yishui County, where there are many monks and rich people, and there should be a great demand for Fu Seals, and he may be able to make some money by selling Fu Dao like the Fu Dao Master named Zhao Xinran.

…………

Meanwhile.

In the grass hut in the north of Luojing City, near the mountain, the middle-aged woman who had mastered the "Heart Gu" had a very gloomy face.

The "Heart Gu" she planted in Yang Changfu and the other people's bodies was nourished day and night by her for several years with the power of her divine soul, and it was closely related to her, and it could almost be regarded as a part of her soul.

Because of this, she was able to use the "Heart Gu" to cast a spiritual spell that could release negative emotions.

However, she never imagined that her opponent would not only be able to break free from negative emotions, but also be able to cut off the connection between her and "Heart Gu".

Especially at the moment when the connection was disconnected, she felt a strong coercion, as if the gods above the Nine Heavens were issuing an edict, which made her feel awe from the bottom of her heart.

"Damn," she said inwardly, "where is this enemy who has such a strong level of divine sense?" You have to tell the Lord as soon as possible. ”

Just then, someone pushed the door open.

It was a man with a thin physique, a long, pointed face, and a beard. He wears a rich brocade robe and holds a feng shui compass in his hand.

"Mrs. Ma, there is an accident in the capital," I saw him say with a gloomy face, "There is a node in the 'Twisting Dragon' killing game that I arranged, and someone has destroyed it. ”
