After saying goodbye to his neighbor Lu Zhengzhong, Chen Ping made a little preparation and went out.

In the next few days, Chen Ping once again familiarized himself with the layout of the entire Cloud City, including the middle city and the outer city.

I learned about the gathering of people in each area, the environment of the barren area, the trend and layout of the streams in the city, the density of houses, and where there are abandoned houses...

I even went to the restaurant to listen to the music twice, and knocked on the side of the situation in Cloudsdale.

Chen Ping's house is located in the east of Zhongcheng, and after calculating the distance, he finally chose to rent a low-grade hut in Zhongcheng (Sanxiu City), which is four miles away from the house.

He also rented a small courtyard on the east side of the outer city (mortal city) twelve or thirteen miles away, and also rented a room on the west side of the outer city, which was relatively far away, more than twenty miles away.

Houses in the outer city are relatively cheap to rent and only cost gold.

These three houses, he planned to serve as authentic exits.

Cloudsdale is not as good as Lianyuncheng after the civil strife, Cloudsdale is relatively orderly, the exit is selected in a barren area, and there is a risk of being found when entering and exiting, and the utility room of the house is used as an exit is relatively hidden.

Return to the house.

Chen Ping and Yu Lingchun talked about the plan, and then began to dig the basement in the utility room.

'The Regretful Earth Technique has been cultivated to the Great Perfection.

With a single palm, it can loosen the soil at a depth of nearly five meters. When there is a big commotion, use a mute note extravagantly.

When digging deep enough, in addition to the soil, a large area of hard stone will appear, and this is the time when you need to use a magic tool to help.

The 40-kilogram magic weapon with a handle that I bought from Lin Changshou was very handy.

'This magic weapon can be kept for your own use, and it is quite valuable to dig tunnels. ，

It is also very convenient to transport soil.

Just throw it into the storage bag, and even the weight disappears after throwing it into the storage bag, and it can be transported nearly 2,000 catties at a time.

The excess soil can be transported to the barren area.

It is also simple to transfer the loose soil to the storage bag. Bought a large metal shovel and used the power of the metal to shovel the loose soil and pull the metal shovel into the storage bag.

Semi-automated operation of the whole process.

When Chen Ping was digging, Yu Lingchun did some auxiliary things.

Of course, it was not excavated with all its might, and the evergreen gong and talisman making were not left behind.

After digging intermittently for more than 20 days, a spacious basement was dug up.

Considering that the city had a foundation monk, the basement was dug twenty meters below to be on the safe side. It could have been dug deeper, but the deeper the ventilation, the harder it was to make it, so I stopped there.

In view of the depth of the entrance, the entrance is no longer a staircase, but a rope is used to go straight up and down.

After digging, Chen Ping used the 'dragon gathering water, a spell, to remove the moisture from the basement and keep the basement dry.

In fact, there is not much humidity itself, and at least half of the walls in the basement are natural stones.

Then I went to buy some furniture, arranged the bed, cabinet, desk, chair..., put in the monster jerky, and arranged the basement into a temporary residence for the sparrows, although small.

In the event of danger, it will not be a problem for the two of them to stay down for a month.

In the days that followed, just dig the tunnels slowly.

Looking at the basement in front of him, Chen Ping exhaled with satisfaction.

Whether there is danger or not, there is one more security guarantee. ，

Hopefully it will never be needed. ，

"Husband, do you want to live in the basement tonight?" Yu Lingchun pursed her red lips.

Since wearing the high-grade hairpin, Yu Lingchun's face has become more moisturized, and there is a mature charm under the youthful atmosphere.

Let Chen Ping never get tired of watching it.

"Yes, stay in the basement at night." Chen Ping smiled.

Fresh surroundings are always stimulating

of hormones.

It was the first time to live in such a deep basement, and the two inevitably became more interested and had an in-depth exchange.

......

A few days later.

It's been a month since he came to Cloudsdale, and Chen Ping decided to look for Guo Zizhao.

Lin Changshou visited once a few days ago, and during the conversation between the two, Chen Ping knocked on Guo Zizhao's address casually.

Guo Zizhao lives in the southwest of Midtown, which belongs to the third grade of houses.

Entering the street on this side, the houses on both sides are relatively low, and many of them do not even have yards, just a lonely hut on the road.

It is obviously not as atmospheric and spacious as the street where Chen Ping's own house is located.

In the same city, there is also a gap between the rich and the poor.

……

Inside Guo Zizhao's house.

Lin Changshou came to visit today, and the two were discussing livelihood issues in the house, and there was no craft in Cloud City, and it was not easy to make money. If you really can't do it, you can only pick up your old job and go out of the city to hunt beasts.

Hunting beasts, there is a shortage of people at all times.

Right now.

The two suddenly heard a soft sound, and immediately noticed that someone had touched the house, and the two were startled, and quickly flashed to the side to hide themselves.

When they saw a strange scholar under the window, the two of them made a look, and suddenly attacked the scholar in a left-right position.

"Qiang~"

"How daring, dare to burglary in broad daylight, suffer death!"

Under the blow, the two found that the weak scholar did not seem to be weak at all, and easily dodged the attack of the two, and his moving figure was too ghostly, so that they could not catch the exact location of the other party at all.

Before they could react, they saw the weak scholar send out a few small spiritual power swords very freely.

Those few spiritual power swords seemed random.

It doesn't seem to have much power.

But Guo Zizhao and the others only hesitated for a blink of an eye, and found that those few seemingly slow spiritual power swords actually blocked all their retreats.

I was shocked into a cold sweat for a while.

Both of them are fifth-level qi practitioners, and they are preemptive, and they attack together, but they didn't expect to fall into the disadvantage in just one breath and become lambs to the slaughter.

"Smack! Syllable! Smack!"

A few loud bangs.

Guo Zizhao found out that those few spiritual power swords only blocked their retreat, and did not go straight to their vital point, obviously the other party's subordinates showed mercy.

Meanwhile.

Guo Zizhao, who came back to his senses, also sensed the familiarity of the spiritual power sword.

Guo Zizhao wiped his forehead and said uncertainly:

"Great... Big brother?"

Chen Ping, who looked like a scholar, smiled:

"It's me."

After speaking, he rubbed his body in public, and restored the appearance of Chen Changsheng in the north of the city, and then returned to the appearance of a weak scholar again.

The two were dumbfounded.

"You're too slow to react, you're not alert enough. I've been watching you at the window for a while. If I hadn't made a noise, you might not have noticed me until now. It's too slow." Chen Ping commented.

"Big brother taught me a lesson." Guo Zizhao laughed, thinking that it wasn't that we were too slow to react.

This time.

Lin Changshou respectfully bowed and said:

"I've seen Senior Chen, I'm Lin Longevity. I've always wanted to do things with Guo Daoyou before."

Chen Ping nodded:

"Hmm. Be clever in everything you do."

"By the way, Chen Changsheng's identity is too sensitive, so he won't need it in the future. I will use this capacity to communicate with you in the future."

Guo Zizhao and the two agreed, and at the same time looked at the eldest brother, a scholar, in order to remember the details. The contrast is really big, it was so fierce in the past, but now it looks weak and harmless to humans and animals.

Chen Ping ignored their gaze:

"There's a job you can't do

？」

"Big brother, what you said." Guo Zizhao said: "You give me an errand, that is to reward us with food. How can we refuse it, and we can't ask for it? Big brother, you say."

Lin Changshou also nodded yes.
