In the dark room, there was a sudden sound of a baby crying, which startled Ji Que and Ning Hongyu.

Where are the children!

The two of them looked around again, and there was nothing here but them and the corpse, and the baby's cry could be said to be very abrupt.

Ning Hongyu waved his hand, and the oil lamp quickly burst into flames.

The darkness in the room was dispelled, reflecting the good-looking faces of Ji Que and Ning Hongyu.

There was really nothing here but them and the corpse, as if everything that had just appeared was a hallucination.

The two of them were almost sure that the sound was coming from the corpse.

"Not dead yet?" Ji Que picked up the corpse with a thousand machine swords, and wondered.

But the corpse was too dead to die.

In Ning Hongyu's words, it was more like a little instinct left in front of him.

According to Ji Que's understanding, it is like a frog being killed and skinned, some muscle nerves are still alive, and there may still be a bullet in the local area after death.

After that, Ning Hongyu began to inquire about Ji Que's "ginseng fruit tree".

"Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit tree, haven't you heard of it?" Ji Que asked.

Ning Hongyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhen Yuanzi, a Taoist immortal?" ”

After some exchanges, Ji Que basically determined that Ning Hongyu was not very familiar with this knowledge.

There should be no legend similar to "Journey to the West" in this world, otherwise with Ning Hongyu's well-read and strong memory, he shouldn't be so confused.

And his impression of the ginseng fruit tree and Zhen Yuanzi mainly comes from the four famous books in his previous life.

The old man in the sky in Chen Hanshi's mouth, the real body of Guanyin in the painting, and now there is a ginseng tree that can turn people into such a ginseng tree, and the immortals in this world are really getting more and more interesting.

Judging from the clues obtained now, is she a ginseng fruit tree that turned him into such a person, or is she the fairy behind this tree?

However, Ji Que was not sure whether there were Zhen Yuanzi and ginseng fruit trees in this world, and if Luo Yun was a ginseng fruit, it was very different from what he knew.

Ning Hongyu said: "I've heard of Zhen Yuanzi's name, but I've only heard it, so we really need to check the ginseng fruit tree and Zhen Yuanzi in your mouth." By the way, how do you know that? ”

Ji Que replied: "When I was in Sangshui County before, I heard an old man say that after eating the ginseng fruit on the ginseng fruit tree, people can live forever. ”

Ning Hongyu pondered: "You old people over there really know a lot. ”

Ji Que shrugged.

I can't tell you that I'm here in time and have read Journey to the West, right?

After such a big war, it was naturally a period of peace.

It's just that Ji Que can clearly feel that Lin Xiangzhi and Bai Lu have become diligent.

One should have experienced the incident of this senior brother, and found that his strength was not strong enough and was stimulated, and the other was to see that his sister was seriously injured, and sighed that this world was really dangerous and had to cultivate.

It can only be said that Bai Lingshuang's injury has provided indelible help to Bai Lu's endeavor.

Because she was worried that if she didn't cultivate well, she would suddenly die one day, and she wouldn't be able to feel the beauty of this world.

......

In the underground palace, the group of ministers and officials were still regularly going up and retreating from the court, narrating the major events in the court and the central government in words that ordinary people couldn't understand, as if all the movements made by Ji Que and them before were just a passing moment.

And what they eat is really that kind of tree man.

That kind of tree people are in patches, and I don't know how they were formed.

The people of the Demon Suppression Tower and the Qingqi Division were led by Chen Zhuchen to ambush the underground palace, and after making sure that there was not much danger, they rushed out at once and pressed these officials down and caught them.

"Mian Shouhu, Kuang Bang."

"Hold on, squeeze."

"What are you doing?"

"This is the Imperial Palace!"

......

These officials spoke angrily and panicked in different languages, until Chen Zhu said, "Don't howl, it's the other way around!" The expressions on the faces of the group of officials suddenly turned desperate.

Some of them began to change their normal faces, their skin became pale as paper, and their eyes soon appeared with a thin layer of flesh, as if they had become blind.

When this group of people was taken away, Chen Zhu, Wang Hua and Master Lingyu looked at the huge statue of the pig king, and they couldn't help but feel hairy in their hearts.

The emperor who has so many people in the court here is such a thing like a giant earthworm?

Master Lingyu can be regarded as well-informed, but he found that in the past year or two, it seems that since he met Ji Que in Sangshui County, he feels that this world is becoming more and more strange to him.

He had seen a lot of evil cults that he had never seen before, or even heard of, and some of them were difficult to understand.

Chen Zhu, who was chilling in his heart, said: "Let's burn it." ”

Master Lingyu nodded in agreement.

What evil has to be burned clean.

With a bang, a thunder egg was thrown, igniting the huge "earthworm".

Because this thing was so big, Chen Zhu threw two more out.

In the dim underground space, there was a disgusting stench, which showed that the sculpture was not just carved out of wood.

It wasn't until the entire huge strange statue turned into pieces of ash that Chen Zhu and the three of them got up and left.

They didn't notice that when the statue was burned, the eyes of a young man in the group of officials who were taken away suddenly became large and bright......

"Okay, what I said last time, you name the number."

Outside the grove, Ning Hongyu hugged his chest and said to the porter Ji Que.

Ji Que didn't expect this happiness to come so quickly.

He looked at Ning Hongyu, who made his chest appear bigger because he was hugging his chest, and said nervously, "Really? ”

"Really, let's talk about it." Ning Hongyu said.

"Twenty thousand taels, I want twenty thousand taels of silver." Ji Que took a deep breath and said.

At this time, Ning Hongyu couldn't help but smile and said, "You really think about me, I thought it was at least gold." ”

"Gold?"

Ning Hongyu said: "It's useless to regret it, you only have this one chance." ”

Ji Que stood in place, a little confused for a while, and said secretly: "Am I going to be less?" Twenty thousand taels of silver is going to be less? ”

For a while, Ji Que obviously made a profit, but he felt that he had lost.

He feared that his lion would open his mouth, and that he would end up unimaginative in the end.

Sure enough, poverty limits my imagination.

But overall, Ji Que is happy.

Hell-barred.

Especially a few days later, the thick stack of silver tickets was placed in a box and delivered to him, and he was so happy that he seemed to be about to become an immortal.

If it weren't for the fact that there were no computers and networks in this world, he would have liked to write such a question on the press: "In ancient times, people had 20,000 taels, how to spend them appropriately?" ”。

For such a large sum of money, Ji Que only felt a little hot for a while.

After all, he is still in the stage of accumulating understanding.

So, he gave half of it to Ning Hongyu, saying that he would temporarily store this half with her and take it when he wanted to use it.

Although Ning Hongyu agreed, he felt weird.

How do you feel like a money woman?

After that, Ji Que took another 5,000 taels and put them at Lin Xiangzhi, leaving only 5,000 taels for himself.

Never put all your eggs in the same basket, this is the conclusion that Ji Que summed up very early.

He wanted to test whether the silver would be safer with someone else.

He didn't do it before because he didn't know if it would work and he was reluctant.

After all, only Ning Hongyu has bank attributes, and he can afford to lose it.

Sure enough, on the third day, when Lin Xiangzhi counted the silver tickets, he found that two of them were missing, and one of them had a mark bitten by a mouse.

Ji Que said depressedly: "You stole silver from a cat by a mouse?" ”

Lin Xiangzhi was also a little dazed, and said with a look of grievance: "I don't know either." ”

In the next two days, Ning Hongyu sent 10,000 taels back, making it clear that he would not save it for him.

Ji Que asked why, and Ning Hongyu replied: "You can't keep your wealth, you lost two thousand taels in five days inexplicably, I feel that I will lose if I continue." ”

So going around and around, the silver ticket returned to Ji Que's hand, but it was missing Lin Xiangzhi's 1,000 taels.

Ji Que only felt that the silver ticket was very hot, and decided to spend it on the spot.

So the model concierge Ji Que took a leave of absence and decided to continue to go back to Tianren City to buy a house.

Speaking of which, this kind of fixed asset is the most stable.

As soon as he reached the riverbank, he found that there was a commotion, a group of people stretched their necks and looked inward like geese, and a few people dressed in black were catching fast in and out.

"What's going on?" Ji Que couldn't help but ask.

"It seems that someone's house collapsed, and I don't know if anyone was stoned to death." A woman replied.

Looking at this familiar picture and listening to this similar line, Ji Que had a bad premonition in his heart.

It can't be my house collapsing.

He squeezed through the crowd and gasped, feeling the urge to faint.

It was really his house that collapsed.

Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi hurriedly rushed in, and the two catchers were inside.

After learning the identities of the two, a young catcher couldn't help but say: "Thanks to your luck, there is no one at home, otherwise you would have been buried." That's okay, Ji Gongzi, since nothing happened to anyone, let's go first. ”

Hearing that he was lucky, Ji Que was speechless for a while.

How can this good house collapse and collapse?

Lin Xiangzhi looked at it, picked up a piece of wood, and said, "It's termites." ”

Ji Que took it and took a look, only to see that there were dense holes on the top of the wood, and there were really small ants inside.

First rats, then termites, these animals are not making a good life.

Immediately, Ji Que jumped to the wall, looked at the next door and the next door, and said depressedly: "Why are other people's families fine?" ”

Lin Xiangzhi said, "What do you say?" Expression.

Ji Que was quite irritable for a while, lifted the wood and inhaled wildly with his true qi, and in an instant, he sucked out thousands of termites, kneaded them into balls, and directly pinched and exploded.

It wasn't until all these termites burst and died that Ji Que's mood stabilized.

Lin Xiangzhi couldn't help asking, "Then can this house still be bought?" ”

Their original plan was to come back and buy a property.

Ji Que thought for a while and said, "Buy!" ”

"The house is going to collapse, and you still want to buy it?"

Ji Que pondered: "Buying a house is buying a location, as long as the location is valuable, the house is worth it." The next time I build a stone house, with iron windows and iron doors, I see what this group of dead ants can do to me? ”

Lin Xiangzhi pondered: "A stone house, with iron windows and iron doors, how does it sound like a prison cell?" ”

As a result, Ji Que really bought a house, and there were still two big ones in a row, one of which was next door to Ji Que's current house.

Because I heard that Ji Que's house collapsed because of termites, the price was suppressed.

There are two large mansions, one is not a river view room, but it is better than a quiet atmosphere, two in and two out.

Of course, the price was also expensive, and with the broker's remuneration, it cost a total of 17,000 taels.

After the silver was spent, Ji Que had a sense of relief in addition to heartache.

To be honest, he would rather face being cut and poured oil on him than facing the pain of losing his silver.

Now that the money has been exchanged for a house, and the house is in a good location, everything is secure.

The house collapsed, and as long as the lot remains, it is always worth it.

As a result, Ji Que, a scholar from the countryside, suddenly had four suites in Tianren City.

took turns to live in a new house for a few days, and went back to the water house to reminisce about the warm little days before, and Ji Que suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment.

This day is much more beautiful than the previous life.

Four suites, full payment, all by their own efforts, how does it sound like a fairy tale.

In the evening, Hayashi Kaori sits under the loquat tree and grills fish.

Ji Que couldn't help but ask: "Kaori, which of these suites do you like the most?" ”

When this kind of thing is said, how can there be a sense of showing off like a beating.

Lin Xiangori said: "Here it is. ”

Ji Que was surprised: "Why this water house?" ”

Lin Xiangzhi pondered, "Is it because I've been living here all along?" It's quiet, the room is no more, no less, and there are fish to eat, just right. ”

Ji Que thought for a while, "It's just right." These three words, I found that there is a little deeper meaning.

It's a control of desire, and one doesn't get too lost.

Involuntarily, Ji Que remembered another old house in this old house, and couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know how much dust is piled up in that house." ”

At this moment, under this brilliant sunset, Ji Que was eating the grilled fish handed by Mao'er Niang, and suddenly missed those days in Sangshui County.

At that time, he didn't have a few taels of silver on him, and he was unlucky, and the results of the academy were not satisfactory, but he had a pleasant happiness.

He couldn't help but pull out that beloved chaise longue and lie down.

To be honest, he misses Tang Yi.

In the past year or so, he has experienced a lot of thrilling stories and met many people, including the big-breasted female Shangfeng, the cute little Bailu, the virtuous cat-eared girl in front of him, and so on.

But he still couldn't help but miss Tang Yi.

The guy who was lying like clothes.

The way he lay there, except for being lazy, he was lazy, but he didn't seem to get tired of looking at it.

He was like an anchor in this mysterious world, or the first harbor, always pleasant and peaceful.

That familiar feeling is back.

Lin Xiangzhi looked at Ji Que's appearance, frowned, and said, "Don't tell me that you are eating my grilled fish, but you are thinking about Ning Hongyu." ”

Ji Que shook his head.

"White dew?"

Ji Que shook his head again.

Lin Xiangzhi gasped and said, "Are you still thinking about other women?" ”
